《I Made a Fortune by Marrying a Sick Girl!》 Chapter 1 twin sisters Chapter 1 Twin Sisters Huizhou Prefecture, She County. At night, the streets and alleys are quiet, and occasionally you can hear the barking of dogs. The Song family suddenly broke into a group of officials. The leader of the official claimed that the medicinal materials sold by the Song family to the Northwest Army were of inferior quality and caused death, so he was ordered to search the house and question the crime. "It''s bad! Water is leaking in the backyard!" "Quickly put out the fire! The eldest lady and the second lady are still in the house!" "Help!" The Song family was in chaos, and there were cries everywhere. An ordinary carriage came out of the alley next to Song''s house and hurried towards the city gate. inside the carriage. Song Jin hugged her concubine Song Xiu, feeling dazed and uneasy. The old man Qin who was driving said: "Girl, when we get to Qinjiagou, we will tell others that you are from the next county and your parents are dead." "Okay." Song Jin responded. "Mr. Song and I have discussed it. The one who is engaged to the eldest daughter is my son Qin Mingsong. He is 18 this year. He is already a scholar and is studying at Ziyang Academy in Fucheng..." According to the laws of the Great Xia Dynasty, the crime does not affect the daughter of a married woman. Therefore, when Song Kuan saw something happened to the Song family, it happened that his old acquaintance Qin, the old man, was staying at the Song family tonight, so he betrothed his daughter to the son of the Qin family. The Qin family has only two marriageable boys. One is Qin Mingsong, the youngest son of old man Qin, and the other is Qinchi, the eldest son of the house. Song Jin was betrothed to Qin Mingsong by Song''s father. The concubine Song Xiu was only fourteen years old and was given to Qin Chi. After this disaster, the wealthy Song family was completely destroyed. Song Jin tightened her clothes. Although she was reborn, her rebirth was too late and failed to solve the Song family''s dead situation. Thats all, take it one step at a time. The carriage traveled more than eighty miles from She County to Qinjiagou. If we continued on the road, we would reach Qin''s house the next day. After old man Qin''s arrangement, Song Jin and Song Xiu moved into the same room. The room was kept very clean. There is an 80% new bed, a semi-old wardrobe and a square low table. There is a six-legged basin stand in the corner, and there are also personal toiletries and other daily necessities on the shelf. In addition, there is a large bookshelf standing next to the wall, which is filled with books, from the "Three Character Classic" and "Disciples'' Regulations" to "The Great Learning", "The Analects of Confucius", etc., most of which are related to the imperial examination. The books and articles are neatly arranged without any damage, which shows the owner''s care for them. According to her memories from her previous life, this should be Qin Chi''s house. Presumably it was because Qin Chi had not returned yet that Old Qin allowed her sisters to live here. "Sister, do you want to live in this house?" When Song Xiu saw this small and simple room, she felt extremely disgusted, "I have never lived in such a bad place in my life." "Children from farmers usually have to sleep in the same room. It would be nice to have a single room." Song Jin was accustomed to the willfulness of his concubine. What''s more, the current situation is dangerous, and sisters are lucky to be alive. How can they be picky about the environment in which they live. Song Xiu stopped talking, but when he secretly peeked at Song Jin, his eyes were full of malice. In her previous life, she married Qin Chi and became a widow early; Song Jin became the first lady in the second year of her marriage. When she was seventeen years old, she remarried a poor scholar, ate chaffy vegetables every day, and was chastised by her evil mother-in-law. Song Jin had a good life, and Qin Mingsong became a high school Jinshi within two years, enjoying great glory. Later...she was tricked by a man into working as a prostitute in another place! Every day was as bad as a pig or a dog, it was dark, and there was no one to collect the corpse until the day he died! Why can my sister marry the charming Qin Mingsong? She also became an official''s wife and lived a good life that everyone envied? And she could only marry a sick man and become a widow early? Why? ! Just because her sister was born two years earlier than her? Before Song Xiu''s death, he was full of resentment and deeply hated the injustice of heaven. Unexpectedly, after death, people do not go to hell, but return to their home when the accident happened. They were on their way to the Qin family for the first time! Song Xiu cried with joy. She felt that this was God compensating her and allowing her to live again. This time, she didn''t want to marry that sick man again. She is going to marry her brother-in-law! She will be the official wife, the scenery is hers, and the good life is hers... "Sister, are you feeling better?" Song Jin asked concernedly while spreading the quilt on the bed. Song Xiu said in her usual pampering tone: "Much better, sister, do you really want to marry a mud-legged man? Why doesn''t dad find us someone from the city?" "Sister, be careful what you say!" Song Jin understood his father''s approach, "Now it''s not up to you and me to be picky. If you want to survive, just follow dad''s arrangements." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "I can''t help you." Song Xiu curled her lips in displeasure, suddenly rolled her eyes, stood up and covered her stomach, "I''m going to make it easier." After saying that, Song Xiu ran out. Song Jin hasn''t slept a wink since the accident at home, and really doesn''t have the energy to take care of her sister. Anyway, she is in the Qin family, so nothing major can happen. She sat on the edge of the bed, wanting to rest first. However, out of control, my mind thought of my father, whose life or death was uncertain, and of the Luban box he hurriedly gave me. Song Jin stood up, picked up the baggage, and found the Luban box. I learned how to use the box mechanism when I was a child. So, she opened it easily. Inside the box were ten silver ingots, a stack of silver notes, household registration documents and a few jewelry items. Song Jin skillfully opened the underlying mechanism, and there was indeed something hidden inside. It was a letter and a copy of "Song''s Pharmacopoeia". This "Song Family Pharmacopoeia" is the foundation for generations of the Song family to live and work. It records the roasting techniques of hundreds of medicinal materials. As a result, the Song family has been established in Fucheng for a hundred years, and the medicinal materials they sell are always two to three points better than other medicinal materials on the market, and the price is reasonable, so they are highly sought after by doctors. Song Jin opened the letter again. The letter explained some things, asking her to memorize the contents of the pharmacopoeia before burning it, and remember not to fall into the hands of others. It also mentioned that the Song family was in trouble, and it was suspected that a noble person in Beijing coveted the pharmacopoeia. Finally, he told her to work hard to live and not let others plot against her... The words contained fatherly love and earnest teachings, which made Song Jin''s eyes red with sadness. The happiest and most beautiful time in my previous life was when I was protected by my father. It''s just that she was young and ignorant at that time, and she always complained that her father was too serious. You dont know how precious you are until you lose it, but you want to support your son but your mother is not there... Just at this moment, soft footsteps came from outside the door. Song Jin wiped away the tears on his face and hurriedly stuffed the letter and book into his arms. The door was pushed open. Song Xiu carefully brought a bowl of egg and brown sugar water in and said attentively: "Sister, are you hungry? The kitchen has boiled egg and brown sugar water and it''s still hot. I''ll bring you a bowl right away. You can fill your stomach first." Song Jin was indeed a little hungry, so he ate the sugar water gracefully. After a long while, Song Jin''s face changed, and she secretly cried out, "Sister, you" Before the sentence was finished, the person lost consciousness. The author solemnly declares: The historical dynasties in this article are fictitious, and historical readers should not pay attention to them. In addition, this article involves professional knowledge, a few of which come from the Internet, and most of which come from the "Encyclopedia of Processed Chinese Medicines", "Encyclopedia of Chinese Medicinal Materials", "Chinese Herbal Medicine Authenticity Identification Codex", "Pharmacopoeia", etc. (End of this chapter) Chapter 2 Caught and raped in bed Chapter 2 Caught in bed The sun sets and the moon rises, the stars change. The eastern sky gradually revealed a hazy light. Song Jin didn''t know how long he had been asleep. He only knew that when he woke up, he was lying next to a man. The man was about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a thin face and beautiful and perfect bones. At this time, his eyes were closed, his eyebrows were lightly raised, and his smooth forehead was stained with a thin layer of sweat, as if he was having a bad dream. This man is clearly the eldest grandson of the Qin family. He is the man who was married to the concubine in the previous life, Qin Chi, who died long ago! She fell unconscious after drinking the egg-sugar water given by Song Xiu, and slept with Qin Chi when she woke up! Song Xiu is her biological sister. Although she is not a sibling, she is still a biological sister. Why do you treat her like this? This didn''t happen in my previous life... Squeak. The door was pushed open. Song Xiu and an old woman walked into the house. The old woman was black and thin, with a slightly hunched back. Her hair was neatly combed into a bun, and her cloudy eyes revealed a bit of shrewdness. When he came in, a pair of old eyes looked up and down at Song Jin. Song Jin recognized this person as Old Liu, the wife of Old Man Qin. "Sister, how could this happen! How could you be with him..." Song Xiu has a delicate face and a pair of big moist eyes, but she can''t hide her crazy ambition and determination to win. Song Jin looked at Song Xiu coldly, and with just one glance, he made a bold guess. Not only is she back, but Song Xiu is also back. I am afraid that Song Xiu was dissatisfied with her previous marriage, so she came up with this stupid trick. And he was afraid that she would deny it, so he brought a witness with him. Song Jin was very disappointed with Song Xiu. As the eldest daughter of the Song family, she only wanted to overturn the case for the Song family, but Song Xiu only cared about the love between her children! "Miss Song, now that you and Qin Chi have reached this point, the only choice is for the second girl, Song Xiu, to marry my Ming Song." Old Liu''s wrinkled eyes stared straight at Song Jin. Old man Qin talked about marriage when he came back. Song Xiu came to her earlier and said that her sister Song Jin had been ill a few years ago and the doctor said it was difficult to have children. Is it okay for Old Liu to hear this? Her precious youngest son will be a high-ranking official in the future. How can he have a sterile woman as his wife? Song Xiu also suggested that Song Jin and Qin Chi should cook the rice. In this case, Song Jin would not be able to marry Qin Mingsong. Old Liu agreed immediately. At Song Xiu''s instigation, Old Liu asked someone to send a message to Qin Chi, who was still in the academy, saying that he had something important to do. Qin Chi did not doubt that he was there and rushed back quickly. After drinking a cup of tea that had been prepared, he lost consciousness just like Song Jin. Old Liu and Song Xiu moved the two of them to the same bed and appeared at the right time. "Auntie, I have no objection to marrying Qin Chi. Please go out first. I have something to talk to my concubine." Song Jin didn''t get angry, he spoke calmly to Mr. Liu, and deliberately changed his sister''s name to concubine. Old Liu''s expression was slightly startled, as if he had never expected Song Jin to be so calm, and he was even more certain in his heart. Song Jin must be suffering from the problem of being unable to have children, otherwise how could he be so happy? "Sister, are you really willing to marry Qin Chi?" After Mr. Liu left, Song Jin hadn''t spoken yet, but Song Xiu was beaming with joy. Song Jin''s face darkened, and his voice was not loud, but full of momentum, "Song Xiu, kneel down." Song Xiu was shocked and naturally refused, "Sister, what are you doing?" Song Jin saw that she was still being stubborn without kneeling down, so he reached out and slapped her. "You still know that I am your sister? The Song family suffered this disaster. It is already difficult for us sisters to survive, but you still want to frame your own sister. I slap you, it is not an exaggeration!" Song Xiu covered her face. She had to say that she was really frightened by Song Jin''s aura just now. But even so, she didn''t think she was at fault. "I just want to find a good husband for myself! What''s wrong with me? I''ve inquired, Qin Chi is a sick man, he won''t live long! I don''t want to be a widow soon after getting married!" Song Xiu was half-truthful. Pretending. Song Jin sneered at the corner of his mouth, looking at Song Xiu, his eyes were full of disappointment, "If you really want to marry Qin Mingsong, you can tell me the truth, but you have to use such despicable means. Regardless of blood ties! Unexpectedly, Song Xiu actually spoke her true feelings, and Song Jin was even more sure that she was reborn. Any talk of inquiring is just a cover-up. But she didn''t understand. No matter in the previous life or in this life, she was very kind to Song Xiu, her concubine, but Song Xiu didn''t care about the relationship between sisters at all and regarded her, Song Jin''s innocence as nothing. In this world without innocence, would she not know what would happen to a woman? Song Xiu was shocked to realize that her sister-in-law was different from the past. Her aura was not something she could possess at such a young age. Now that their sisters are living under someone else''s roof, they really shouldn''t break up with each other. When Song Xiu thought about this, she hugged Song Jin with tears in her eyes and cried, "Sister, I just lost my mind for a moment. I hope you can forgive me!" In the past, Song Jin would have taken her performance seriously, but now he finds it extremely ironic. Song Jin pushed Song Xiu away and said, "Now that the matter is over, just go and marry the good match you want. In the future, the sisterhood will no longer exist. I hope you can get what you want." Song Xiu thought that marrying Qin Chi meant her life would be miserable, but Qin Mingsong was not a good match either. Song Jin sneered inwardly. Since my concubine wants this marriage, let her have it and let her experience the feeling of being a widow. In their previous lives, Song Jin and Qin Mingsong treated each other as if they were guests. On the surface, they were harmonious and beautiful, which attracted admiration from others, but in reality, they had unspeakable hardships behind their backs. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Mingsong already had a sweetheart before he got married. Song Jin felt that he was wrong for occupying his sweetheart''s position and never told anyone. Little did he know that Qin Mingsong secretly raised the woman outside and gave birth to a son and a daughter. Song Jin had nothing to do for seven years, and Qin Mingsong was a Jinshi in high school. No matter how others tried to persuade him, he still refused to divorce his wife and marry another. But who knew that she, Song Jin, had been married for seven years and was still a young woman? Later, when Qin Mingsong became an official in the court, he only took his wife and a pair of children with him. On the contrary, she, the first wife, stayed in her hometown, claiming that she was serving her parents-in-law on behalf of her husband, and once again earned a good reputation for him. Thinking about it this way, Song Jin felt that there was nothing wrong with being a widow. At least it won''t be as disgusting as eating a fly. "Sister, do you really mean what you said?" Song Xiu didn''t believe that Song Jin would give up good things to others so easily. "Absolutely true." Song Jin looked calm. "So, Xiu''er is very grateful. If my sister encounters difficulties in the future, just come to me." Song Xiu shed a few tears in a false voice, but when she turned around and left, a smile appeared on her face. Finally, she no longer had to marry that sick man. From now on, she would be the wife of a high-ranking official and live a life of fine clothing and fine food. As for letting Song Jin come to her? Those were just polite words. "Cough cough cough..." After Song Xiu left, a man''s cough sounded in the room. Following the sound, Song Jin happened to meet a pair of deep and awe-inspiring eyes. Those pupils seemed calm, but in fact they were hidden in edge, as sharp as an eagle. Qin Chi looked steadily at Song Jin. After a moment of regaining consciousness, he deceived himself and raised his arm lightly to his forehead. His sleeves covered half of his face and his eyes, and the unprovoked aura just now was gone, like a tiger suddenly turning into a sick cat. He also naturally showed his sickly attitude. Song Jin was stunned. Is this person''s sense of presence... a bit low? In my anger just now, I forgot that there was someone else in the room. Did he hear those words just now? Thinking back to the conversation with Song Xiu just now, Song Jin felt happy. Fortunately, the words "rebirth" were not spoken, otherwise it would have been too shocking and impossible to end. PS: If you dont like this type, just give up and refuse negative reviews. (End of this chapter) Chapter 3 I didnt take advantage of you Chapter 3 I didnt take advantage of you Qin Chi slowly sat up and checked his clothes slowly, as if checking whether he had lost his virginity. Song Jin''s cheeks felt inexplicably hot. To be honest, after resurrecting her life, she only regarded him as a junior, but she never had such thoughts. But let him do this... "I didn''t take advantage of you!" Song Jin blurted out. Qin Chi glanced at her coolly and said nothing, but Song Jin could see his disbelief. Song Jin suddenly remembered something and asked with a guilty conscience: "You, are you awake a long time ago?" Qin Chi''s tone was slightly cold, "It''s late, and I just heard that you two sisters turned against each other over the marriage. This drama is very interesting." In his previous life, Song Jin had only met Qin Chi a few times, and had no personal contact with him. His understanding of him was very shallow, and most of it was just hearsay after his death. Some people say that he is good at painting, and others say that he has good character and knowledge. They all say that he is jealous of talents. Others said that he was different from what he appeared to be, that he was cruel and evil, and that he deceived the world and stole his reputation. However, everyone who listened felt that this was an immoral smear, and was unanimously condemned by everyone. How dark is this persons heart when he still throws dirt on someone even after hes dead? However, just after getting along with him for a short time, Song Jin knew that Qin Chi was not easy to mess with. "Where did you sisters come from? It seems that you are sure to marry into the Qin family." Qin Chi sat on the couch with a natural expression. Song Jin couldn''t help but blush when she thought of her father''s plans for their sisters. After thinking about it, she revealed the marriage between the Song and Qin families. "You are very generous. My concubine caused you to lose your reputation of innocence and a good marriage. You actually gave it to her so generously?" Qin Chi stared at Song Jin intently, his eyes seemed to be able to see through people''s hearts. Song Jin pursed her lips slightly, "Only the person who gets married will know whether a marriage is good or bad. What is the saying? Just like a person drinking water, he knows whether it is warm or cold." Qin Chi looked at her with mixed eyes, Song Jin was different from ordinary women. An ordinary woman only wants to marry a good husband in her life, but this is not her ambition. "You are probably saying this because you have never met my brother-in-law. If you have, you will definitely regret it. He is gentle and elegant, and shows his talent. If nothing else, it is easy for him to become an official through the imperial examination. As for me, I am plagued by illness and fear that my life will be short. Not to mention fame and fortune, my survival is a problem. " "A person''s life is not about length. I see that although you are sick, you are a transparent person." Song Jin blurted out without thinking too much. Qin Chi looked at her very curiously. Song Jin was only a boudoir woman, but she could say such words, "In that case, our marriage is settled." Hearing this, Song Jin felt relieved. As long as the marriage is settled, other things can be taken care of slowly. "Tuk-tuk." Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door. It rang twice and then stopped, and a little girl''s clear voice came from outside, "Brother, please go to the main room to talk." "knew." Qin Chi responded and looked at Song Jin again. Song Jin nodded slightly. She straightened her clothes and hair, and followed Qin Chi out of the room. Standing outside was a delicate little girl. As soon as she saw Song Jin, she ran away with a smile. The little girl''s name is Qin Daya. She is the second daughter of the Qin family and the eldest granddaughter of the Qin family. Soon. The two of them went to the main room. Old Qin stood in the room with a dark face, and behind him stood the guilty old Liu and Song Xiu. As soon as old man Qin saw Qin Chi entering the room, he raised his hand and was about to hit someone: "You bastard! Who gave you the courage..." "Uncle Qin!" Song Jin stepped forward and raised his hand to stop, and explained for Qin Chi, "I don''t know how much you know about this matter, but Qin Chi is not wrong at all. Now that the matter has come to this, it is better to let it take its course and everyone will be happy." The mastermind of this matter was Song Xiu, who had nothing to do with Qin Chi. Qin Chi raised his eyes to look at the young lady standing in front of him, and the corners of his mouth couldn''t help but curl up slightly. At home, my grandfather always said that he could not get away with the marriage he agreed to. Qin Chi prefers Song Jin to Song Xiu, who married his scheming sister. However, he felt that his uncle and Song Xiu were a good match. Its nothing! Until many years later, when Qin Chi recalled the first time he met his beloved wife, he repeatedly thanked Song Xiu for not being a thing. Without Song Xiu, he and his wife would have missed out! Old Qin was ashamed: "It''s the Qin family that can''t help you." Song Jin tried to comfort her: "Uncle, you don''t have to be like this. Marriage is destined by fate. This may be the so-called fate." Everyone present was as clear as a mirror, but they had a tacit understanding not to pierce the fig leaf. Song Xiu was overjoyed. As long as her sister didn''t make trouble, the marriage change would be a success. Qin Chi spoke at the right time: "Grandpa, if you really feel guilty and want to make amends, you can allow her to have her own family." Hearing this, Song Jin looked at Qin Chi in surprise. This guy...has a lot of thoughts. I''m afraid he is the one who wants the little family to be independent, right? However, this matter is also beneficial to her, so she will not reveal it. In the previous life, the Qin family lived together. There were no big things, but a lot of trivial things. Song Jin was happy to see the success. When he said this, Old Man Qin had no choice but to agree, otherwise it would be deceptive and pretentious to fool people. After being silent for a long time, Old Qin said, "It''s natural for a small family to be independent." "Old man, we haven''t separated our family yet. How can she have her own independent family? This is against the rules." Old Liu was unwilling to give in. Song Xiu had already said that when Song Jin and Qin Chi''s marriage was completed, both sisters would be The dowry brought by the daughter-in-law of the Qin family can be returned to the palace. And wouldn''t returning to the public house mean falling into her hands? But now that Old Man Qin allows Song Jin''s family to be independent, why does she have any reason to ask for Song Jin''s dowry? "Shut up! You have done something stupid, who have you to interfere!" In fact, Old Qin had asked clearly before. Old Liu and Song Xiu hurriedly came to him and said that Song Jin and Qin Chi had done something embarrassing. Old Qin was not easy to fool, so he immediately questioned Old Liu. Old Mrs. Liu was most afraid of Old Man Qin, and he was ready to attack him in just a few words. Only then did Old Qin apologize to Song Jin. Old Liu knew that he was in the wrong and was immediately speechless. "Well, thank you uncle. I have one more thing I want to ask your uncle to do." Song Jin felt a little blessed. Old Man Qin ordered the others to go out. "Grandma got what she wanted, why aren''t you happy?" After leaving the house, Qin Chi deliberately approached Old Liu and mentioned what had just happened. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Old Mrs. Liu glanced at him and said, "You are so weak, go back and rest quickly." With that said, she pulled Song Xiu aside. Qin Chi looked at the two people''s backs thoughtfully. "Song Xiu, if you want to be my good daughter-in-law, go and get the dowry!" Old Liu reminded Song Xiu in a very low voice. Song Xiu was very embarrassed. She didn''t expect that Old Qin would agree to Song Jin''s independence. She had already broken her skin with Song Jin once in exchange for marriage. How could Song Jin be willing to ask for a dowry again? "Auntie, we just did such a thing, wasn''t it too..." However, Mrs. Liu didn''t care about that and said forcefully, "The dowry is half of yours. It is reasonable for you to get it. If you don''t go, I will let my son marry another one. There are plenty of good girls!" Song Xiu was anxious and responded quickly, "I''ll do it as soon as possible!" Only then did Old Liu feel satisfied. While Song Jin and Old Man Qin were having a private conversation in the hall, Song Xiu sneaked into the previous room, which was Qin Chi''s room. When he came out again, he carried her baggage and a box in his arms... On the other side, Song Jin talked with Old Man Qin for a quarter of an hour before returning to the house. She asked Old Man Qin to help with two things, one was about the marriage certificate, and the other was to send a letter. Old Qin went out immediately and came back less than two hours later, handing Song Jin a marriage certificate. Above are the names of Qin Chi and Song Jin, but the date is not today, but moved five days forward. Five days ago, Song Jin''s father had not yet been convicted. The key is that the marriage certificate has the stamp of the local government office. In this way, the identity of a married woman has passed the clear path. The marriage certificate was kept secret, and no outsiders knew about it except the person who handled it. It is still necessary to hide one''s life experience from the outside world. Song Jin does not want the people behind the plot to frame the Song family to find Qinjiagou so quickly. There was no such thing as a marriage certificate in the previous life. Marriage in the country is simple and has its own set of agreed-upon rules. Few people spend money to go to the yamen to get the marriage contract. As the saying goes, the eight-character yamen opens to the south, so don''t come in if you have reason or money. The people were in awe of the government and would not even think of going to the government unless absolutely necessary. To marry a wife and have a child, you only need to go to the village chief and report it. By the time Song Jin realized the importance of the marriage certificate, it was already too late. At that time, Qin Mingsong had already passed the Jinshi examination, which was the hope of the entire Qin family to change their family. Those who entered the dynasty as officials in Daxia had to have a clean family background. How could Qin Mingsong admit Song Jin''s identity, let alone expose it in black and white. The days can only be lived in a muddle. For a long time, Song Jin''s eyes became more and more determined that he could never live in confusion again in this life. Just when she was about to put the marriage certificate into the Luban box, she suddenly found that the box was missing! "I saw your concubine come in, and she was carrying a baggage in her hand when she left. Why don''t you ask me?" Song Jin was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Qin Chi suddenly pushed the door open and reminded her. It turned out that Qin Chi had not gone far earlier and had been staring at Song Xiu. A trace of surprise flashed in Song Jin''s eyes. Qin Chi would actually help her. Also, what did he call her just now? Song Jin was in a hurry to find the Luban box. She didn''t have time to think about it and hurried out the door. She went straight to Qin Mingsong''s house and slammed the door hard. Song Xiu wanted to marry Qin Mingsong, so she couldn''t wait to move into Qin Mingsong''s house. Sure enough, the person who opened the door was Song Xiu. Song Xiu pretended to be confused: "Sister, are you looking for me?" "Crack!" Song Jin slapped her in the face and said coldly: "Give my things back." Suddenly, Song Xiu didn''t dare to say anything anymore and said aggrievedly, "Sister, I also have a share of the dowry given by my father." Song Jin snorted coldly, "Did you only take away a portion of the dowry?" Song Xiu bit her lower lip tightly, "Sister, you are marrying a sick man. No one will ask you for a dowry. I am different. Qin Mingsong is a scholar and will be a high official in the future. If I don''t have a dowry, I will be Its ridiculous! She didn''t want to take it all, but when she thought of so much money in her previous life, she couldn''t hold back the greed in her heart. Unfortunately, the Luban box was difficult to open. It took me a long time to open the lock, and Song Jin came to find it! "You can''t do it right? Then let Uncle Qin make the decision!" Song Jin''s voice rose a little higher. Song Xiu panicked, "No, no, no, I''ll take it right now." After all, Old Man Qin has the final say in the Qin family. After what happened just now, Old Man Qin must be targeting Song Jin. Song Xiu returned to the house and took out the Luban box. Song Jin took it and opened it, leaving half of the silver and silver notes. Song''s father had prepared the money, and Yan Ming''s sisters each had half of it. The jewelry is a relic of Song Jin''s mother-in-law, so there is no need to divide it. After closing the Luban box, Song Jin said coldly: "Song Xiu, you have got what you want, and you can live a peaceful life from now on. I will not take advantage of you, but I will not allow you to occupy even half of what belongs to me. " After saying that, Song Jin left without looking back. Song Xiu looked at Song Jin''s back and had a bad feeling in her heart. Was this marriage the right thing to do or the wrong thing to do? Not long after Song Jin turned around and left, she saw Qin Chi standing under the eaves in a long gown and looking at her. She just looked at him and nodded, thanking him. (End of chapter) Chapter 4 A marriage certificate Chapter 4 A marriage certificate After returning to the house, Song Jin threw the letters and pharmacopoeia left by his father into the brazier and burned them. Keeping the real thing would sooner or later be a disaster, so it was better to burn it. Anyway, she was already familiar with the contents of the pharmacopoeia in her previous life. When it was almost finished, Qin Chi came into the house carrying a teapot. Song Jin stood up in surprise, covering the brazier behind him without any trace of his body. Qin Chi just glanced at it and vaguely saw half of the Chinese character Song in the title of the book, as well as a half-burned letter. He pretended not to see the brazier, moved the square low table next to him to the bed, then placed the teapot and two tea bowls on it: "Come here and have a bowl of tea." Song Jin went over and sat opposite him. Qin Chi''s white fingers gently lifted the teapot and poured another bowl of hot tea. The movement of pouring tea is like flowing clouds and flowing water, which is really beautiful. Pushing a bowl of tea in front of Song Jin. Qin Chi said with a pun: "At home, I only have scented tea picked from the mountains. I just drink it, and it can also clear away heat and reduce internal heat." "Thank you." Song Jin picked up the tea bowl. "There is no common courtesy in the family, no need to thank you." Qin Chi said nonchalantly: "My grandfather said that he has issued a marriage certificate for you and me today?" Song Jin nodded. Qin Chi asked again: "Can I take a look?" As a client, he wanted to see it, but Song Jin had no reason to refuse. Putting down the tea bowl, Song Jin took out the marriage certificate and handed it to him. Just as he said, Qin Chi only glanced at it and asked her to put it away. Song Jin carefully put the marriage certificate back to its original place. Qin Chi''s eyes were slightly strange when he saw this, but his face didn''t show it: "It''s just a marriage certificate. If it''s broken and lost, you can go to the Yamen to get a replacement. Is it worth treating it with such care?" Song Jin said: "It''s worth it." This is a life-saving piece of paper. Qin Chi raised his eyebrows upon hearing this, obviously pleased by her actions. Paying so much attention to the marriage document should be a matter of satisfaction with the marriage, rather than rushing to get married to him. This is really a strange misunderstanding. Song Jin didn''t expect Qin Chi to think wrongly, and was thinking about another thing: "Ms. sir, when will you go to the academy?" Qin Chi lowered his eyelids and said calmly: "I asked for a long leave. I just want to go to the academy to find my master to spend the leave." "How about I take care of you when you go to the academy? I want to rent a small courtyard near the academy." Song Jin wanted to live in the city for convenience. "This...isn''t appropriate." Qin Chi''s hand holding the tea paused slightly. Would this be too clingy? Then Qin Chi thought of something, and the ripples that had just started were extinguished instantly. His future is uncertain, so why should he be sincere to others? It will only add to his sadness. Song Jin''s attitude was firm: "There is nothing wrong. My husband needs people for food, clothing, housing, transportation, and three meals a day." Qin Chi glanced at her deeply and said, "This reason is not wrong, but it cannot convince the elders in the family. If you have to go, I will tell my parents about it." "Thank you, sir." Song Jin''s eyes were filled with gratitude. Qin Chi also reminded Song Jin to have breakfast tomorrow morning. The rules of ordinary people''s homes are not as complicated as those of wealthy people, but they are not completely absent. For example, in Qinjiagou, the new daughter-in-law must cook a delicious meal for her parents-in-law the day after she enters the house to show her respect and filial piety to her parents-in-law. It is also an opportunity for the bride to show off. It is said that the parents-in-law feel comfortable eating this meal, which means they are satisfied with the new daughter-in-law, and the new daughter-in-law will have an easier life in her husband''s family in the future. If the parents-in-law are not satisfied with the meal, the new daughter-in-law will have a hard time in the future and will have to work hard. Song Jin knew this custom. Qin Chi narrowed his eyes slightly and said after a while: "My uncle will go home tomorrow..." "Oh." Song Jin was not surprised. Seeing her mediocre reaction, Qin Chi stopped mentioning it. Song Jin never stepped out of the room again, and even ate dinner in the room. At night, Song Jin quickly washed up and then lay down on the bed and pretended to sleep. Qin Chi found another quilt. The two of them slept separately in a tacit agreement, as if they had completely forgotten that tonight was their wedding night. Until he woke up, Qin Chi discovered the warm fragrance of the extra nephrite in his arms. The faint feminine fragrance lingered on the tip of his nose, a fragrance he had never smelled before. It smelled good, and I subconsciously shrugged my nose again... After a while, my rationality returned. In order to avoid embarrassment, Qin Chi quietly let go of the man in his arms, got up and got out of bed to get dressed. He had just put on his shoes. Behind him, a slightly soft voice asked: "It''s still dark outside, are you about to get up and cook?" "Well, it''s time to get up." Qin Chi responded casually. Song Jin rubbed his sleepy eyes and got up to get dressed. When he walked to the door and wanted to go to the kitchen in the dark, he saw Qin Chi following behind him holding a lamp. Song Jin was confused: "What are you doing?" "Have you ever cooked?" Qin Chi lowered his eyes and looked at her hands. The fingers were slender and as white as jade, reminding him of the finest mutton-fat jade. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin wants to say that she can cook. But at this time in her previous life, let alone knowing how to cook, she couldn''t even make a fire. Kitchen chores are all learned after marrying. The two of them entered the kitchen one after the other. Song Jin simply washed the rice, and Qin Chi did the rest. Qin Chi didn''t understand it because it was too complicated, so he just cooked a big pot of thick rice porridge and made two ready-made side dishes, such as pickled spicy cabbage and fried peanuts. No one in the Qin family has woken up yet. As long as Qin Chi didn''t say anything, no one would know that it wasn''t Song Jin who made this breakfast. "You take the rice porridge to the main room first, and I''ll boil another pot of water." Qin Chi lifted up his clothes and squatted in front of the stove, and began to add firewood to the stove. Song Jin looked at the thin young man, who was lighting the fire quickly. Under the light of the fire in front of the stove, the sharpness and sharpness of the stove were gone, and there was a bit of hazy softness. The long black eyelashes were like crescent moons, half of them. Covering a pair of ink-like starry eyes, the high bridge of the nose is delicate and picturesque, and the light lip color is very attractive... "Bang." There was a slight noise outside. Song Jin regained consciousness in panic, picked up a large bowl of porridge and walked out of the kitchen, feeling quite like running away. As soon as I entered the main room, I saw old Mrs. Liu. Mrs. Liu didn''t want to see her eldest son. Not only did her eldest son marry a sickly daughter-in-law, she also gave birth to a sick baby. She spent a lot of money on medicine since she was a child. Even if Mrs. Li earned the money from her embroidery work and didn''t spend a penny on Mrs. Liu, she was still unhappy. Even Song Jin, who had just entered the house, and Mr. Liu were not happy. The old Liu family has been in charge of the family for decades and is used to giving orders in this family. Song Jin is out of control as soon as she comes. It''s strange that she can be happy. In addition, Song Xiu cried yesterday and said that she could only get half of the dowry, and Old Liu was in an even worse mood. Old Liu said angrily: "You got up so early? And you made breakfast?" "Milk, it''s done." Song Jin quickly put down the porridge basin. She and Qin Chi had become a couple, and it was time for Old Liu to change her gender. Old Liu''s eyes were sharp and he saw a large pot of rice porridge on the table, which was steaming. It had obviously just come out of the pot. Song Jin wanted to go back to the kitchen first. Song Xiu Tingting appeared and said with ill intentions: "This is the first time I have seen my sister cooking in my life. Sister, let me help you." "Don''t bother, I should have done this." Song Jin was worried that someone would go to the kitchen and see Qin Chi. Especially doing housework? There will definitely be a lot of trouble! Song Jin hurriedly turned to the kitchen. As soon as they arrived at the kitchen door, they saw Old Liu and Song Xiu following them. One had an elongated face, and the other looked like he was watching a good show. Song Jin was so nervous that his palms were sweating. If Qin Chi was found to have cooked this breakfast, not to mention old Liu, even mother-in-law Li would probably not give her a good look. "Why are you leaving so fast? Is there a man hiding in the kitchen?" Old Liu had a vicious mind. Song Jin suddenly turned around and saw Old Liu angrily. Just as he was about to say something, Song Xiu, who followed, exaggerated: "Auntie, please be careful what you say. If your words spread, how will my sister see anyone in the future?" "Hmph! She didn''t do anything wrong. Why is she guilty?" Pushing Song Jin away vigorously, Mr. Liu rushed into the kitchen. Chapter 5 The second day after marrying into the Q Chapter 5 The second day after marrying into the Qin family Song Jin hurriedly followed. Then, no one is inside? There was only the occasional crackling sound when the firewood was burning, the stove was burning, and white steam was rising from the edge of the pot lid. The side dishes were placed on the table. Old Mrs. Liu stared straight at Song Jin: "There is no one in the kitchen, why are you anxious?" "The water is still boiling in the pot. I can''t wait to see it." Song Jin didn''t know when Qin Chi left, but she wouldn''t be stupid enough to admit it. Song Jin was not afraid of Mr. Liu, but he didn''t want to cause trouble. In her previous life, she had experienced how difficult the old godly woman was. Old Mr. Liu left with an unhappy look on his face. Song Xiu glanced at the kitchen regretfully. "Sister, are you okay?" Song Xiu pretended to be worried on her face, but the malice in her eyes was about to overflow, "I know Qin Chi did it for you today, don''t worry, I won''t tell anyone." Thinking of Old Liu''s attitude towards Song Jin, she thought that her life would not be easy in the future. After Qin Chi died of illness, it would be difficult for Song Jin to get married again if she had to bear the reputation of being a coffin. Just thinking about Song Jin''s miserable situation made Song Xiu feel happy in his heart. "It''s just that you want to use something to stop my mouth." Song Xiu started to blackmail. Although he had broken up with her a long time ago, Song Jin still felt a little cold in his heart, and said with a stern face: "You can talk if you want, no one will stop you." After leaving this sentence, Song Jin didn''t bother to pay attention to Song Xiu anymore, and squatted down to add firewood to the stove. This attitude made Song Xiu stomp her feet, turned around and walked away angrily. When there was no one in the kitchen, Song Jin quickly stood up, took the side dishes to the hall, and then hurried back to the house, where she saw Qin Chi...washing up? "When did you..." Song Jin turned around and closed the door. "I went back to the room first when I heard the noise." Qin Chi wet the handkerchief and wiped his face, "When you come in, wash up first, and then we will go to the main room together." "OK" Song Jin''s eyes fell on the brand new tooth brush and tooth powder beside them. This is for her. She just married into the Qin family and lacked everything. Someone was ready, and Song Jin felt a little warm in his heart. However, this time she did not say thank you, she just kept the good thing in her heart silently. Give me a peach and give me a plum in return. In the short time he has, she will be kind to him... This life is different from the previous life. In his previous life, Old Qin had spoken out about the marriage arbitrarily in front of everyone, and could not tolerate the objections of Qin Mingsong and Qin Chi. He set up two banquets the next day and entertained the most respected elders in the village. They married into the Qin family together. Now Song Jinxian is married to Qin Chi. Song Xiu hadn''t even seen Qin Mingsong''s face yet. Old Qin''s name is Qin Shi. He is over fifty years old. He and Mr. Liu raised four sons and two daughters. Two daughters are already married, and of the four sons, only Qin Mingsong is not yet married. When Mr. Qin was young, he worked outside for a few years. When he made money, he returned home to build a house and buy property. It is said that he became a master and learned the art of making ink. He would make a small amount of Hui ink every year and sell it to the rich, and he supported his family by doing so. , is a well-known wealthy household in the village. The Qin family is prosperous and has seven grandchildren. The eldest son of the Qin family, Qin Mingzhong, is married to the Li family and has his only son, Qin Chi. Qin Mingyi, the second wife, married Xiao Liu and gave birth to five children, four sons and one daughter. The third wife was Qin Mingqing, his wife was Lin, and they had a two-year-old daughter. The Qin family gathered in the hall today, happily put on their cleanest clothes, and waited in the hall for the official appearance of their new daughter-in-law. Song Jin and Qin Chi stepped into the threshold one after another, standing side by side as if they were covered in sunshine. At first glance, they looked handsome and beautiful, as beautiful as a picture scroll. The main reason is that Song Jin''s appearance is too prosperous, which makes Qin Chi, who was previously very sick in the eyes of the Qin family, look a bit different. It wasn''t until the two men approached that everyone came back to their senses. Qin Laoer chuckled and said: "Brother and sister-in-law, you have chosen the right niece and nephew. Take a look, when the elder man and his nephew and daughter-in-law stand together, they become energetic. It''s really good-looking." "Hahaha, second brother, Dalang has been good-looking since he was a child. He is not worse than the fourth brother, but he is a little thinner." Qin Laosan joked. Qin Chi smiled lightly: "Second uncle, third uncle, please stop joking. My nephew is thin-skinned." "Why are you so thin? Only a man with a thick skin can be successful." Little Liu said carelessly, "Da Lang, you already have a wife, so you can''t be thin-skinned, otherwise you won''t be able to have a baby..." Qin Chi''s mouth twitched slightly. The second aunt is just a talker, so you''ll get used to it. Next to him, Qin Sanlang''s little face was red, and he said awkwardly: "Mom, why do you just open your mouth and come, I, I''m still young." "You are a nine-year-old kid, your hair hasn''t grown yet, why are you so shy?" Xiao Liu slapped her second son on the head. "Hahaha" The adults roared with laughter. The children, whether they understood or not, followed the adults and had fun. Except for Erya, who is two years old, all the other children are from the second family. The oldest is Qin Daya, who is thirteen this year. Next is Qin Erlang, who is just eleven years old. The two little boys, about three or four years old, were the twins born to Mrs. Liu. The most fertile child in the Qin family is Xiao Liu. After Mrs. Li gave birth to Qin Chi, she never got pregnant again, but Mrs. Lin was pregnant twice, but neither of them got pregnant. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin always kept smiling. Deal with embarrassment with a smile, and as long as she doesn''t show it, no one will know. Qin Mingsong and Song Xiu were not seen in the room. Qin Mingsong should not have come back. It would be strange for Song Xiu not to be here on this occasion... Just when Song Jin was confused. Old Mrs. Liu ordered: "Da Ya, go and invite the second girl." "Okay, tits." Qin Daya went out in response and came back soon. Song Xiu was wearing a dark green flower-and-bird underskirt, walking in small steps and walking in full measure. She has very few accessories, only a peony flower on her head, but it is just right, making her face look like a hibiscus and her person like a flower. Song Jin saw that Song Xiu had dressed up carefully. Song Xiu handed over a jasper bead hairpin as soon as he came up. She smiled lightly and said, "Sister, this is your wedding gift from my sister." "It''s a waste." Song Jin took it. I still have to show my dignity in front of others, but I just dont want to be laughed at in public. Song Xiu seemed to be joking and said: "What a waste, when I get married, my sister will also put on makeup, don''t forget it." "I can''t forget it." Song Jin smiled lightly. I am afraid of losing money when I give things to others. I am still as short-sighted as I was in my previous life. "Look what sister said, Xiu''er was just joking with you, don''t take it seriously." Song Xiu quickly made amends. Song Jin smiled and said nothing. Song Xiu turned to greet several elders of the Qin family, talking and laughing, quite intent on seizing the limelight. Song Jin was not relieved. In this life, she would get along with the Qin family just like Song Xiu, as long as she could look good. Wait until everyone is seated. As for the new daughter-in-law, the process of serving the elders is quite simple. She only needs to serve a bowl of thick rice porridge to each of her parents-in-law. Ordinary people don''t have the conditions to be like the rich and powerful. They can''t give their parents-in-law pickles with chopsticks, right? That picture is funny just thinking about it! Song Jin thought that there were a pair of ancestors above her parents-in-law, so she served porridge to Old Qin first, and then it was Old Liu''s turn. Mrs. Liu was furious when she saw Song Jin and was ready to cause trouble: "Da Lang''s wife! Why don''t you make pasta today? My old lady doesn''t like to drink this porridge..." Old Qin slapped the table and said angrily: "If you dare to be picky again, believe it or not, I will beat you to death! I''ve been shortchanged by you before?" Old Mrs. Liu was scolded and mumbled a few times, unable to speak. Everyone present did not dare to say a word. Song Jin continued to serve porridge to Mr. Liu. But when it was being served, the spoon held by the little hand shook, and the rice porridge in the bowl became a little clearer when it was served. Qin Chi''s mouth twitched slightly when he saw this, and he immediately looked away. (End of chapter) Chapter 6 The big family in the previous life was Chapter 6: The big family in the previous life was miserable Song Jin ignored Old Liu''s knife-like eyes and filled a large bowl of thick rice porridge for Boss Qin. "well." Boss Qin''s dark face was full of a silly smile. Next to him is Mr. Li. Ms. Li has been ill for many years, and her son is also a sick child. There is a lot of gossip outside, but in fact she is a graceful beauty, as graceful as the wind blowing in the willows, and she has superb embroidery skills. Song Jin didn''t have a deep impression of Li. After the death of Qin Chi in the previous life, the Li family was greatly hit. He passed away after staying in bed for a few months. Boss Qin disappeared not long after. Gradually word spread in the village that he had lost his wife and children. Unable to bear the blow, he went up the mountain to commit suicide. This family is so miserable and saddening. Song Jin carefully served Li Shi porridge. Mrs. Li took off a gold and jade phoenix pattern bracelet from her wrist, put it on Song Jin''s bright wrist, and said softly: "I hope you can live a good life with Dalang. If he dares to bully you, just come to mother, and mother will do it for you." Call the shots. "Thank you, mother." Song Jin''s cheeks felt slightly warm. Xiao Liu on the side said sourly: "Sister-in-law is so generous today. My sister-in-law wanted this bracelet when she got married, but you didn''t give it to me." "This is my grandmother''s relic, and I asked it to be passed on to my daughter-in-law. Second brother and sister, why do you think I have the nerve to be a dowry for my sister-in-law? Isn''t that a mess?" Li''s tone was gentle and half-joking, making it difficult for people to choose. Something went wrong. Xiao Liu choked when he heard this. Song Jin thought to herself that this mother-in-law was also very powerful. At least he''s very talkative. Mr. Liu is not a bad person, but he loves to be picky and gossipy. Old Liu said with a black face: "The second brother''s family, after breakfast, go and feed the pigs. Remember to clean the pig pen." "Isn''t this the job of the third younger brother and sister?" Xiao Liu was unconvinced and wanted to defend, but was pulled by Qin Laoer beside him. Xiao Liu stared back at her husband displeased. The young Liu family is very confident in this family, and this confidence comes from her mother''s family and the old Liu family. Xiao Liu''s biological father is the second cousin of the old Liu''s mother''s family and the head of the Liu family. When she was a girl, Xiao Liu was very favored. I usually can''t stand Mrs. Li staying in the house all day and not doing any housework. Even if Li''s embroidery was sold, half of it would be handed over to the public school, but it didn''t stop her from jumping around. In short, there is no one else who enjoys it even though he never gets any favors. "Dalang, you will be an adult when you get married. From now on, you must be filial to your parents and give them a fat grandson as soon as possible." Qin Laosan smiled and blessed. Qin Chi responded with a smile: "Third uncle, I can do it." "Brother, what can you do?" Qin Erlang came over and winked at Qin Chi. Qin Chi was as steady as an old dog, "What''s going to happen? Of course, let my parents have fun with their grandson as soon as possible." "Hahaha, what a boy, I really belong to you." Qin Laosan and others burst into laughter. Song Jin tried hard to keep smiling, but his ears were already slightly red. Only Song Xiu secretly mocked. Want to hold a big fat boy? I''m afraid it''s not a dream! In the previous life, Song Jin was not pregnant for seven years after getting married, so Song Xiu dared to spread rumors to the old Liu family that she could not give birth. The entire hall was filled with laughter and laughter. Outside the door, a scholar wearing a Confucian turban and a ruffled shirt walked into the room calmly. This scholar has an outstanding figure, a handsome figure, and a strong scholarly air about him. At the same time, he also has the nobility of today''s scholars. From the moment he stepped into the main room, he just glanced at him and said nothing, but people could clearly feel his carelessness and his indifference. "Si''er?" Old Liu stood up excitedly, put down his bowls and chopsticks, walked around the table and walked towards the visitor, "Si''er came back so early, didn''t he say he wouldn''t get home until noon?" Old Qin was also surprised. Coming back so early, I''m afraid I''ll have to travel all night. Old Mrs. Liu took Qin Mingsong''s arm, looked up and down with concern, and said distressedly: "Are you hungry, Si''er? It''s so dangerous to drive at night. Don''t do this next time." "Lao Niang is worried. It''s my son''s fault." Qin Mingsong said warmly. Old Mrs. Liu smiled with her old face as big as a chrysanthemum. Among the four brothers of the Qin family, the first three are authentic rough country men. They are all powerful and good at work. When he arrived at Qin Mingsong''s place, he had grown in reverse. His figure was slender and elegant, and his face was like a crown of jade. He was clearly a weak scholar, but he also had the pride of a scholar, which was quite unique. People who don''t know his origin often mistakenly think that he is a noble son from a noble family. Song Jin just glanced at him lightly and then looked away. This look was extremely cold. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Mingsong looked quite arrogant just now. Qin Chi suddenly felt strange. He didn''t notice it, really. But when I saw my brother-in-law, I couldn''t bear it, and the scene of the sisters turning against each other directly came to my mind. Looking at Song Xiu''s clearly excited but still pretending to be reserved attitude, this is a normal reaction for a woman to see her brother-in-law. There is something strange about these two sisters. I have never been to the Qin family before, but I seem to know the Qin family quite well... Qin Chi''s mind was far away, but his facial expression did not change at all. Qin Chi noticed the subtle changes in the Song sisters, and Qin Mingsong also noticed them. He is particularly sensitive to human emotions. Qin Mingsong''s eyes passed over Song Xiu and landed on Song Jin''s fat face, and his mind was shaken for a moment. The woman did nothing, and the upbringing rules seemed to be engraved in her bones. She just sat there quietly, so beautiful and picturesque that it made people fascinated. This is probably the case with the stunning beauties described and praised in poems and songs throughout the ages. But for some reason, Qin Mingsong suddenly felt a strange sense of familiarity in his heart. However, he was sure that he had never met Song Jin. The next moment, Qin Chi stood up to meet Qin Mingsong, blocking Qin Mingsong''s view of Song Jin. "My uncle came back just in time to have breakfast. This is a meal that my wife honors her father and mother." Qin Chi chatted for a while, then kicked Erlang next to him, and scolded with a smile: "You boy with no eyesight, go and bring a stool for my uncle, and then go to the kitchen to get the dishes." Qin Mingsong subconsciously tightened his fingers and asked casually, "Is Da Lang getting married?" "Yes, unfortunately, I was ahead of my uncle." Qin Chi responded naturally. Before Qin Mingsong could speak, Qin Chi said briskly, "But it will be my uncle''s turn soon..." Qin Mingsong looked at Qin Chi suddenly, his eyes sharp for a moment. Song Jin sat aside. The uncle and nephew obviously just said a few common things, but she didn''t know if it was her imagination, but she actually heard a hint of tit-for-tat. "That''s right! We will have uncle''s wedding banquet soon. When the elder man got married, my mother refused to prepare a banquet because she was running ahead of my uncle." Xiao Liu jumped out and said cheerfully, and got up to go to Song Song. Xiu said, "Brother-in-law, come and take a look, the bride is still a little beauty." Song Xiu was shy and timid, with a peach-like face, and came to Qin Mingsong half-nudging him. Qin Mingsong''s face darkened. When Song Xiu approached, he took a big step back. Qin Mingsong''s avoidant attitude made Song Xiu''s flowery smile froze. (End of chapter) Chapter 7 Qin Mingsong refuses marriage Chapter 7 Qin Mingsong refuses marriage Qin Mingsong received a letter from Old Man Qin''s family. It was not detailed, but it still mentioned the engagement. Qin Mingsong, who had a sweetheart for a long time, wanted to rush home overnight to stop him, but the current situation was beyond his expectation. Have you already moved into the Qin family? Song Xiu lowered his head slightly and saluted, "I have met Fourth Brother Qin. My name is Song Xiu." Qin Mingsong returned the gift. Surrounded by Old Liu and others, Qin Mingsong sat next to Old Qin. Old man Qin had a serious look on his face, "You must be tired from the night journey. Let''s have something to eat first and then go back to the room to rest. We will talk about the marriage later. We can discuss how many tables can be set up." As the child who the Qin family has high hopes for gets married, the treatment is different after all. No matter what, he would also set up a few tables to entertain the elders of the clan. Qin Mingsong looked at Song Xiu. Song Xiu bowed his head shyly, quite reserved. Qin Mingsong said seriously: "Dad, please forgive my son for not agreeing to this marriage. I will also attend the Autumn Festival next year, and I don''t want people to laugh at the old cow eating young grass." Song Xiu''s face turned pale. Song Jin was also surprised. In his previous life, Qin Mingsong didn''t reject his marriage. What happened? Before Old Qin said anything, Song Xiu spoke first. "I, I''m fourteen." Song Xiu''s big eyes seemed to be filled with water. When he looked at Qin Mingsong, he felt heartbreakingly aggrieved. He said, "Fourth Brother Qin, I, I...am I not good enough?" The beauty is in tears, and the pear blossoms are filled with rain. Song Xiu looked at Old Qin with tears again, and said aggrievedly: "Uncle Qin, if the fourth brother doesn''t want to, you don''t have to force him. It''s me... I''m not worthy of him." After saying this, the man ran away crying. The people present were shocked. Xiao Liu made a fuss, and then complained: "Brother-in-law, really, what''s wrong with being four years younger? It''s not like he''s forty years younger. Don''t be careful when making excuses to refuse a kiss. This will make people cry. If you can''t think about it for a moment, like What should I do if the big flower in the next village jumps into the river? Song Jin quickly glanced at Xiao Liu. She is indeed the second aunt! He knows how to touch people''s hearts. The tense atmosphere at the scene was controlled by Xiao Liu alone. The adults then looked at Song Jin. Song Jin was unexpectedly calm. It''s not that Song Jin didn''t miss Song Xiu''s little trick of retreating in order to advance. But as a biological sister, Song Jin couldn''t act too indifferent. No matter how much the sisters fight, it is ultimately their family''s business. In the eyes of outsiders, they are always one. Song Jin must protect Song Embroidery. Otherwise, outsiders will think that she, a sister, has no regard for family ties. Not easy to deal with! You might even be looked down upon. Even if it was just to show off, Song Jin would defend Song Xiu at this time. Just like you are unkind, I cannot be unjust. So, Song Jin considered it and said: "Second aunt, don''t worry. If my daughter''s family is rejected in person, she will inevitably be embarrassed for a while. It''s best not to disturb Xiu''er at this time and let her calm down..." Song Xiu: Thank you so much! If Song Jin said this, who would have the nerve to comfort her? Song Xiu''s original intention was to make the Qin family feel guilty first, but also to show her magnanimity and understanding, and to seize a word of reason. Of course, doesnt Qin Mingsong call himself a gentleman? If you hurt an innocent girl, you are not allowed to apologize in front of Song Xiu. When they met in private, Song Xiu showed the woman''s delicate and soft side, taking the opportunity to arouse Qin Mingsong''s pity. Song Xiu learned a lot of tricks in Goulan Courtyard in his previous life. She was confident that she could win Qin Mingsong. However, Song Xiu''s calculation was quite good, but Song Jin made such a start... "Uncle Qin..." Song Jin spoke. Qin Chi promptly reminded, "Madam, it''s time to change your name to grandfather." Song Jin nodded and then said solemnly: "Grandpa, although my father has made a marriage agreement with you, he is a reasonable person and will never force anyone to do anything. Since my uncle is not happy, this marriage will be canceled and I will give her another one." Pick a match." "no!" Old Liu suddenly jumped out, "I don''t agree to cancel the engagement!" This surprised Song Jin and others. Even Qin Mingsong''s eyes widened in shock, seeing old Liu in disbelief. As the saying goes, the eldest grandson and the youngest son are the lifeblood of the elderly. The eldest grandson has been sick since he was a child. It''s not that old Liu is harsh, but he is not very kind to Qin Chi. Therefore, Mrs. Liu has always had a strong preference for Qin Mingsong, and everything in the house is kept by him. This time Qin Mingsong wants to refuse the marriage, so it stands to reason that Mrs. Liu should be his helper. I cant believe that Mr. Liu would be the first to object! This is undoubtedly a huge blow to Qin Mingsong! Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Mom, why are you..." Qin Mingsong''s face turned slightly pale, and veins appeared in his clenched fists. Old Liu''s eyes dodge, not daring to meet Qin Mingsong''s disappointed eyes. Just at this time, Qin Sanlang slipped out and came back again. He poked his head at the door and said, "I saw that my aunt ran back to my uncle''s house and did not commit suicide." Qin Mingsong yelled: "Sanlang! Who taught you to call me aunt?" This shocked Saburo. Qin Chi''s eyes flashed slightly, and he sat down next to Song Jin, "Don''t be afraid, Sanlang. My uncle is an adult and won''t argue with children." "That''s right! What are you fussing over?" When Xiao Liu saw her son being frightened, she immediately became unhappy, "Brother-in-law, if you don''t want such a good marriage, it''s because you have a lover outside, right? That''s not possible. Who will pay for the betrothal gift? There is no way for the elder man to get married. Spend a penny from your family "Cough cough cough..." Qin Chi suddenly coughed violently. Song Jin''s mind was pulled back by him, and without much thought she raised her hand and put it on his back, "Mr. sir, are you okay? Why don''t you drink some rice soup to help you feel better." Qin Chi actually picked up the bowl and took a sip. "Second brother and sister, if you want to say that there is someone outside my brother-in-law, just say so. Stop talking about my elder brother, you will shock him." Ms. Li spoke unhurriedly. As soon as these words came out, the scene fell silent again. Everyone''s eyes were turned to Qin Mingsong. Qin Mingsong frowned: "I don''t have a good relationship, second sister-in-law, please be careful what you say." Song Jin knew it. Qin Mingsong will not admit that he has a sweetheart. Private betrothal is detrimental to reputation, especially when the man is engaged. Not only is the woman''s innocence ruined, but the man''s reputation is also ruined. If there is no engagement, Qin Mingsong can ask his elders to propose marriage. At this time, Qin Mingsong relied on his status as a scholar and did not want to argue with the woman. Just waiting for Old Qin to speak. "This marriage will not change, don''t worry about it, the husband''s wife." Old man Qin said this to Song Jin. Song Jinfeng''s eyes flickered. He said that breaking off the engagement was just a test, but Old Man Qin really didn''t agree. Qin Mingsong looked at Old Liu again. Old Mrs. Liu advised in a low voice: "Si''er, I can''t withdraw from this relationship. If anyone dares to spread rumors in the future, my mother will definitely seek justice for you." Song Xiu once said that the dowry was worth one thousand taels of silver. This is a thousand taels of silver! The old man was very good at making Hui ink, but he only managed to save a fortune of a hundred taels in decades. As long as Qin Mingsong marries Song Xiu, a large sum of money will directly enter the family''s account. As for Qin Mingsong''s thoughts, Old Liu might have paid attention to them before, but now his greed has gone to his head. Letting her lose a thousand taels of silver was more uncomfortable than ripping out her heart. Chapter 8 I didnt spend a penny to marry you. Chapter 8 I didnt spend a penny to marry you Mrs. Li didn''t want to get involved in her brother-in-law''s marriage, so she said, "I have one more pattern that I haven''t finished yet, so I''m going back to my room first. Da Lang is not feeling well, so he should go back early to rest." Boss Qin stood up immediately. Even the porridge they didn''t finish was carried back to the room together. As soon as the two left, it was like a signal. One by one, they picked up the bowls in front of them and ran away looking for some lame excuse. Song Jin and Qin Chi followed the flow and went out. In the yard in front of the gate, Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San were chatting in a low voice. In his previous life, Song Jin knew the four brothers of the Qin family. The first three had a very good relationship, but Qin Mingsong was an anomaly. He had been favored by his parents since he was a child, and his relationship with his brothers was the same. The three brothers were willing to support Qin Mingsong in his studies in the hope that he would be able to get a good name and be exempted from the corvee at home. Before Qin Mingsong passed the examination as a scholar, the three of them took turns to serve in the army every year. Every time he returns home from service, he is as thin as a refugee fleeing from famine, and it takes him a while to recover. In contrast, Qin Mingsong was having a great time. No matter how selfless the three brothers are, they will inevitably become estranged over time. Looking back on their previous lives, it seems that the three brothers did not get much credit from Qin Mingsong. When he was a Jinshi in high school, Old Qin suddenly proposed to separate the family. The two old men had been with Qin Mingsong, but they had to stay in the countryside. Then Song Jin, as his daughter-in-law, was legitimately left to serve his parents-in-law. In the end, she died, and neither of the two elders died. Song Jin asked softly: "Do you think Qin Mingsong will insist not to marry Song Xiu?" Qin Chi glanced sideways: "He will marry her." "Why?" "The orders of parents are the words of matchmakers." The reason given by Qin Chi was simple and clear. "Disobedience to parents is considered unfilial. If you want to take the imperial examination and become a scholar, my brother-in-law will not dare." Song Jin understood. Qin Mingsong has a bright future and a long love for his children, and Qin Mingsong studied hard for ten years, so there is no need to guess what choice he will make. In his previous life, didnt he also agree to marry her? "what''s on your mind?" Qin Chi looked at it with unclear meaning. Song Jin raised his head and looked at the sky, what was he thinking? Naturally, I am remembering some things from my past life, but can I talk about this? "I''m thinking, isn''t Qin Mingsong the Qin family''s hope for changing the family? My grandfather might really change his mind." Qin Chi looked unpredictable and pointed out: "Which scholar doesn''t want to change his family, and how many of them have actually succeeded? My grandfather has seen the big world and is more pragmatic." This makes it clear that Old Man Qin has expectations for Qin Mingsong, but he is rational. Song Jin''s eyes flashed after hearing this. Nothing more to say. Old man Qin was obviously looking forward to Qin Mingsong changing his family, but he agreed to marry the Song family. From the moment Old Man Qin agreed to get married, he had to bear certain risks. If he didn''t do it right, he would be accused of covering up. Song Jin had a marriage certificate, which eliminated the hidden danger. Song Xiu did not! Yesterday, Song Jin asked Old Man Qin to apply for a marriage certificate. It was true that he asked Song Xiu to do it together, but Old Man Qin agreed to her offer and not to Song Xiu''s. The reason is that Qin Mingsong has a reputation. At the same time, Qin Mingsong is also a celebrity in this area. Old man Qin said it was difficult to operate. The risk of exposure is said to be high. It is unclear whether this statement is true or not, but Song Jin believed it for the time being. Song Jin never thought about this in her previous life. After all, she was young. She didn''t ask about some things, and Old Qin wouldn''t tell them either. The grievances and resentments of the previous life, who was right and who was wrong, it is actually difficult to sort out now that I think about it. Song Jin doesn''t want to struggle anymore in this life. Because everything has changed since the marriage change. When Qin Chi dies of illness, she will become a widow, and widows can establish female households. After that, they will leave the Qin family after observing filial piety for a period of time, and they will not care about the rights and wrongs of the Qin family. If Song Xiu really gave up this family relationship, remarried someone else and then applied for a marriage certificate, maybe it would be a good thing. Then, Song Jin asked Qin Chi to go back to the room first, and she went to find Song Xiu. When they met, she got straight to the point and asked Song Xiu if he wanted to cancel the engagement, and she would choose a marriage for her. Song Jin bluntly said that Qin Mingsong was not a good match, and there might already be someone he liked. In response to this, Song Xiu not only was not grateful, but was almost furious. He said angrily: "Song Jin, you just don''t want to see me, right? Who asked you to make your own decision to cancel the engagement for me? Did you get my consent? I disagree!" In this life, she will never marry except Qin Mingsong! Qin Mingsong will become a high official in the future. Song Xiu is still waiting to become an officials wife! Song Xiu had never seen a better man than Qin Mingsong in his previous life, so why wasn''t he a good match? Song Jin had nothing to do for seven years in his previous life, and Qin Mingsong never divorced his wife or took concubines. He was praised by everyone as a loving and righteous man. Therefore, Song Xiu did not believe a word of Song Jin''s good words. Song Jin didn''t know what Song Xiu was thinking. If she knew it, it can only be said that Qin Mingsong concealed it so well in his previous life that even she found out accidentally, let alone an outsider. Song Xiu doubted again: "You spread rumors about Qin Mingsong, it''s not because you have a crush on him, right? Song Jin, don''t forget, you are already married, so be a woman." When Song Jin heard this, anger welled up in his heart, and he wanted to help Song Xiu in time, so that he could at least earn his father''s trust. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The reality told her. There is nothing wrong with being kind, it also depends on who you are treating it with. There are some people who don''t deserve it. Song Jin glanced at Song Xiu, as if looking at a stranger. "Song Xiu, you have chosen this path yourself. I hope you will not regret it." After Song Jin finished speaking, he turned and left. Seeing Song Jin''s indifferent eyes, Song Xiu felt a little flustered for no reason. Soon, Song Xiu was carried away by the joy of marrying Qin Mingsong. She didn''t know what she did today, which consumed the last trace of Song Jin''s friendship for her. Song Xiu didn''t feel that Qin Mingsong''s suggestion of breaking off the engagement would be successful. You should know that Qin Mingsong married Song Jin in his previous life. In order to achieve her goal, she even used money to bribe Old Liu. Facts have proved that Song Xiu''s method is effective. Qin Mingsong''s refusal to marry was just a minor incident. Old Qin did not agree, and Old Liu quickly organized the wedding banquet. After discussion, only two tables were finally settled. Children and women are not allowed on the table, so two tables are enough. Old Liu asked Qin Laosan to inform his two daughters. Old Qin went to invite the village chief and clan elders. In fact, if a marriage certificate is not issued, it cannot be said that the marriage is completely invalid. As long as the clan recognizes it and the village chief has the confidence, it is a matter of marriage. Most people in the village are like this. Can you say that their marriage is invalid? There are also hidden dangers. It mainly depends on what the government says, whether it is big or small. On the day when the Dong Chuang incident actually happens, it all depends on who has the biggest backer. Qin Chi excused himself because he felt unwell, and Song Jin used the excuse of staying in the house to take care of him instead of going outside to help. "Are you envious?" Qin Chi, who was flipping through the book, suddenly asked. Song Jin was stunned, "What are you envious of?" "They gave a banquet, but you have nothing. As my second aunt said, I didn''t spend a penny to marry you." Qin Chi kept these words in mind. Song Jin smiled and said, "Will you look down on me because of this?" "Won''t." "That''s okay." (End of chapter) Chapter 9 Qin Chi’s betrothal gift, the four treas Chapter 9 Qin Chis betrothal gift, the four treasures of the study Seeing Song Jin''s indifferent attitude, Qin Chi felt quite upset for some reason. After standing up, Qin Chi walked to the bookshelf, brought a stool and stepped on it, and took out four wooden boxes from the top of the bookshelf. Place them one by one in front of Song Jin. Qin Chi said seriously: "This is the betrothal gift I gave you. Don''t mention it again in the future. I didn''t spend a penny to marry you." Song Jin didn''t expect Qin Chi to mind this sentence so much. Look at the things in front of you, commonly known as the four treasures of the study: pen, ink, paper and inkstone. "Hui ink, She inkstone, Zhuge''s pen, Chengxintang paper..." Song Jin was slightly stunned. For a moment, I was speechless. If these appeared in the study rooms of princes, nobles or wealthy people, Song Jin would not be surprised. He just happened to show up at the Qin family. Appeared in an ordinary farmhouse in Shangougou! Qinjiagou is close to the mountains. This mountain was called Yishan in ancient times and is said to be the Yellow Emperor''s alchemy furnace. In the Tang Dynasty, poets such as Li Bai and Bai Juyi visited and praised it. In the Song Dynasty, it was renamed Huangshan and became a Taoist holy land. There are many records about Huangshan in the past dynasties, and there are countless poems and songs praised by literati. And here are the four treasures. That is to say, Qin Chi took out the four treasures of his study: Hui ink, She inkstone, Zhuge''s pen, and Chengxintang paper. As the saying goes, "gold is easy to get, but Li Mo is hard to find", "one ounce of gold and one ounce of ink" refers to Hui Mo. She inkstone is as famous as Duan inkstone. Its stone quality is tough, its texture is meticulous, its ink is thick, its water storage is not dry, its carving is exquisite and its shape is unique. It has been highly praised by celebrities in the past dynasties, so it is famous all over the world. And Zhuge''s pen is Wang Boli''s pen. During the Northern Song Dynasty, Wang Boli founded the "Four Treasures Hall", which produced all four treasures in his study, and he was especially famous for his pens. Chengxintang paper is imperial paper. This paper was first made in the Southern Tang Dynasty. It is one of the three treasures of the study of the Southern Tang Dynasty. It is rated as the best paper in the history of papermaking. It is famous for its skin like egg membrane, as hard and clean as jade, thin and smooth. During the annual tribute, the Four Treasures of the Study in Shedi are indispensable treasures in the annual tribute, and are deeply loved by the court and famous people. Song Jin said: "These are worth at least a thousand taels if sold." Qin Chi raised his eyebrows, "Do you only think about money?" Song Jin looked at him suspiciously, with a questioning look in his eyes. The reason is that these were all made by Qin Chi himself, and most of the materials used were obtained from his visit to Huangshan. The four items in front of him are the best treasures he left behind. For him, this is priceless. Song Jin smiled brightly and carefully brought the four treasures in front of her, "Then I am disrespectful of this betrothal gift." Qin Chi looked at her with a smile. After it was folded properly, Song Jin solemnly promised: "Ms., next time the second aunt says that you didn''t spend a penny on your wife, I will definitely tell her the truth." Qin Chi: Can he regret it? Tuk Tuk. There was a knock on the door. Li''s voice sounded outside the door, "Da Lang, my aunt and my aunt are here, you two come out and recognize each other." "Okay mother." Qin Chi agreed and looked at Song Jin again. There is a banquet at home today. It was normal for relatives to come over. Song Jin had dealt with these two people in his previous life, and the same rice could support all kinds of people. Song Jin didn''t want to comment on them. In the previous life, Song Jin had been married to the Qin family for seven years and had nothing to do. These two danced the most happily. They often persuaded Qin Mingsong to divorce his wife and marry another woman. They were also frowning upon Song Jin and did not have a good face. On the way out. Song Jin saw Qin Mingsong toasting the elders of the clan, acting modestly and politely. Song Xiu wore her hair in a woman''s bun and followed Qin Mingsong like a well-behaved little daughter-in-law. Qin Chi and Song Jin came out. Following Qin Chi, Song Jin advanced and retreated in a controlled manner. People who came to Qin''s house originally thought that Qin Mingsong was lucky and married a pretty young lady. When they saw Song Jinzhi, they realized that they had just been superficial. This one is even prettier. It''s so beautiful that they can''t describe it. Old Man Qin''s ancestral graves are well buried, and each of the young ladies he married is more beautiful than the last. A baby born this way will definitely look good. Hearing the discussion, Song Xiu glanced at Song Jin from time to time, unable to hide his pride and a sense of superiority in controlling the future. Qin Chi leaned close to Song Jin''s ear and reminded softly: "The way my aunt looks at you is wrong, as if...she knows you are going to be unlucky. What do you think it will be?" Song Jin died speechless. Song Xiu thought he had hidden his little thoughts well. The result is noticeable at a glance. Song Jin seemed to be considering it seriously and replied: "Maybe...because I married you?" Qin Chi was choked. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! But his face was still very calm, and he didn''t show any emotion. Qin Chi originally wanted to test a few words. Song Jin''s answer made him uncomfortable. In fact, these two sisters are quite interesting. They brought him a lot of fun in just two or three days. The two of them were whispering at a distance, but in the eyes of others, their behavior was very close. Song Xiu was happy to see the success. The better the relationship between Song Jin and Qin Chi, the more painful it will be when Qin Chi dies. In the previous life, Qin Chi and Song Xiu got married in name only. Qin Chi either lived in the academy or went home to share a room with several children in the second room. Not to mention that they had not consummated their marriage, they had never met each other a few times. Therefore, Qin Chi''s death was not painful to Song Xiu. What really made her hate it were the vicious rumors outside. Call her a naughty wife, call her a broom star. Qin Chi was killed, and Li Shi was defeated! She even caused Boss Qin to disappear! What Song Xiu wants to see most now is for Song Jin to have a taste of her previous life. I had previously doubted whether Song Jin had the same memories of his previous life as himself. Song Xiu doesn''t think so now. Not only did Song Jin agree to the marriage change, but not only was she close to Qin Chi, but it was not unusual for Qin Mingsong to marry her. You must know that Qin Mingsong and Song Jin have been married for several years and have never had a quarrel. You can imagine how good their relationship is. This is all going as she hoped. After the toast, Song Xiu came to Song Jin and whispered: "Sister, you haven''t put on my makeup yet." "What do you need?" "Whether I''m good or not, what does it have to do with whether my sister will give or not?" Song Jin admired Song Xiu''s thick skin. There was such a quarrel yesterday, but today I can act like a normal person, smile and come over to ask her for gifts. Maybe he didn''t take her words seriously. I think so. Song Xiu was so noisy in her previous life, but Song Jin never gave up on her and often cleaned up her messes. Maybe he was feeling confident? Song Jin returned to the room in silence. Pick out a beaded flower headdress from the box and go find Song Xiu. Song Xiu had already returned to her new house. When someone came in, she thought it was Qin Mingsong and was about to put on her best posture. The first thing I saw was Song Jin. Song Xiu pouted, "Why is it you?" "A wedding gift." Song Jin handed the pearl flower headdress to Song Xiu. Song Xiu sneered: "Sister, have you become so stingy just after becoming a peasant woman? This is not as expensive as what I gave you." "Don''t want it? That saves you money." Song Jin was about to take back his hand, but Song Xiu snatched it away. "The pearls on this are worth a few taels." After the congratulatory gifts were sent, Song Jin turned around and went out. As soon as he reached the door, he saw Qin Mingsong coming in smelling of alcohol. There is only one chapter left to be updated tomorrow. Chapter 10 Spreading rumors to cause trouble Chapter 10 Spreading rumors and causing trouble Seeing Song Jin suddenly, Qin Mingsong''s heart tightened and his eyes narrowed slightly, "It''s you, your name is Song, Song Jin! I heard you were supposed to be..." mine! You are engaged to me! Drunk and emboldened, Qin Mingsong stood in front of Song Jin and stared at her condescendingly, with that familiar arrogant look, like looking at an insignificant ant. Song Jin stood aside. He originally gave way to his position, but Qin Mingsong did not move. Instead, he took half a step closer to Song Jin and sneered: "You hooked up with Qin Chi when you first arrived at Qin''s house, and let others catch you? Afterwards, you made a fuss about changing marriages. I blame my sister harshly and disrespect my elders. Fortunately, I, Qin Mingsong, did not marry a woman like you..." Song Jin was confused when he heard this. Is he crazy or suffering from hysteria? Song Xiu, who had just greeted him, felt guilty when he heard this. He quickly stepped forward to support Qin Mingsong and said, "Fourth brother, why are you standing at the door? You must be tired today. Come in and lie down for a while. Sister, help me go to the kitchen and ask someone to help me." Make a bowl of hangover soup. Song Xiu inserted her body between Qin Mingsong and Song Jin, pulled Qin Mingsong into the room, then turned around and pushed Song Jin out of the door. Don''t forget to close the door. Song Jin saw Song Xiu like this. What else dont you understand? Isn''t it what Song Xiu often does to confuse right and wrong? At this moment, Song Jin laughed angrily! Yesterday, she wanted to maintain the dignity of the Song family and not break up with Song Xiu in front of others. Now that she thinks about it, it''s ridiculous. Every time she thought she knew Song Xiu well enough, she would still refresh her understanding of Song Xiu''s shamelessness next time. "Song Xiu!" "Song Xiu, get out of here!" Song Jin knocked on the door vigorously. Just after two pats, Qin Chi slowly approached, covered his lips with his sleeve and asked: "What''s the matter, madam? Ahem..." When coughing, Qin Chi looked behind Song Jin pretending to be unintentional. Song Jin understood immediately. Turning around, I saw that Xiao Liu, Mrs. Lin and others were clearing away the dishes, tables and chairs in the yard, and they all looked over curiously. The banquet has ended and the guests have gone back. However, Aunt Qin and Aunt Qin stayed, saying that they would go back after breakfast tomorrow. Song Jin restrained his anger and deliberately said loudly: "It''s nothing. Song Xiu asked me to go to the kitchen to talk about making sobering soup." "It''s not that fast to make sobering soup. You can just serve a bowl of tea first." Qin Chis considerate advice. Song Jin thought about it and decided to do it. It was just that Song Jin brought tea and asked Qin Chi to knock on the door. When Song Xiu opened the door, Song Jin quickly went in and then threw a bowl of tea at Song Xiu. "It''s fun to spread rumors, right? If I don''t beat you to death today, my last name will be Song!" Song Jin was so angry that he grabbed Song Xiu and beat him. Qin Chi wanted to remind him. Madam, her surname is Song! Seeing Song Jinsheng beating people violently, Qin Chi refreshed his understanding. At least he felt that Song Jin was like the moon in the sky, unreachable. She is a beauty that can only be seen from a distance. Who is going to tell him now that a little lady can roll up her sleeves and hit someone? This is so inelegant... But...so cute! No longer as lifeless as the previous two days, the whole person suddenly became much more alive. "What are you doing? Stop it!" Mrs. Liu came out of the kitchen with a bowl of hangover soup in her hand, "Daughter-in-law, please stop it!" Song Jin was so angry that he didn''t care who Mr. Liu was. Song Xiu was crying and unable to fight back. His hair was messy and he was in a mess. Old Liu said angrily: "What are you doing standing aside, Mr. Er''s family? Why don''t you go and pull people away!" "Mother, how do you pull this?" Xiao Liu muttered, but she started to pull the person. When she reached out to Song Jinzhi, Qin Chi finally stopped pretending to be dead. "Second Aunt, you go grab my little aunt, and I''ll grab my wife." Qin Chi coughed twice and went to grab Song Jin weakly. There is Xiao Liu dragging Song Xiu, and Qin Chi mainly plays the character of a sick man. It is normal for him to be unable to hold his wife. Song Jin fights more smoothly! "Ahhhh, it hurts..." Song Xiu screamed in pain, not caring about maintaining her soft and delicate image, "Song Jin, that''s enough! Didn''t I just say a few words to you?" "Are you saying a few words?" Song Jin was so angry that she slapped Song Xiu on the forehead, "You are confusing right and wrong, fabricating rumors, and turning black into white! Song Xiu, do you really think that I dare not beat you?" I have long wanted to beat up Song Xiu. Song Jin was beaten very happily and finally took the opportunity to vent the anger he had been holding in for the past two days. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! When Song Xiu looked at her with that superior look just now, Song Jin wanted to slap her. After all, after living a lifetime, who hasnt lost his temper? Old Man Qin hurried over and shouted loudly: "What are you doing? Stop it!" Song Jin stopped now. Qin Chi pulled her away from Song Xiu, quietly put down her rolled-up sleeves, and said anxiously: "Madam, is my aunt bullying you? Is there any injury?" "No, I''m angry." Song Jin returned to his usual calm self-reliance, "Grandpa, I''m sorry, I couldn''t help but teach my concubine a lesson, lest she cause trouble for our Qin family in the future." Old Qin''s face was expressionless. When facing Song Jin, even though she called her grandfather, Old Man Qin never really regarded her as an ordinary grandson-in-law. No matter how depressed the Song family is, the Qin family cannot be bullied by other farmers. Old Qin knows this better than anyone else. The Song family has been operating in Huizhou for hundreds of years and is deeply rooted. Even when the government ransacked his house, he was able to send away Song Jin and Song Xiu, which shows his connections and heritage. What''s more, even if the tree falls and most of the people are gone, there will always be a few wealthy relatives. If this is used well, it will be a great help to the Qin family. Old man Qin originally wanted his legitimate son Song Jin to marry Qin Mingsong. It''s a pity that Song Xiu messed up... Old Man Qin said, "Let me tell you what''s going on, Dalang''s wife." "this" Song Jin glanced around. The entire Qin family was present, including two sisters-in-law who had married outside. Song Jin was about to speak... "sister!" Song Xiu hurriedly yelled, not giving Song Jin a chance to speak. She cried and explained quickly: "It''s nothing! It''s our sisters who are joking. I don''t blame my sister. Uncle Qin... No, father, please don''t punish my sister." , its all my fault for making my sister angry! Its okay not to explain. As soon as Song Xiu explained, everyone looked at Song Jin with condemning eyes. It''s as if the villain is Song Jin. After she finished speaking, Song Xiu suddenly trembled when she met Song Jin''s increasingly cold gaze. This time it was really not Song Xiu who wanted to slander Song Jin through tea talk. She was more afraid than anyone else that Song Jin would reveal the truth. Old Qin had already suppressed the previous drugging incident, but yesterday when she saw Qin Mingsong, he paid attention to Song Jin. Jin, Song Xiu panicked, and when her head got hot, she made a private appointment with Qin Mingsong to throw dirty water on Song Jin. I regretted it afterwards. But I was lucky, I didnt expect Song Jin to know about it so soon! So Song Xiu became even more panicked, "No, no, I really don''t blame my sister for this!" Song Xiu was so anxious that she rushed towards Song Jin, hugged her thigh and knelt down, crying and begging: "Sister, I was wrong, I was really wrong, you can hit me or kill me, please don''t..." Don''t say it! Song Jin didn''t wipe for a moment and was hugged upright. He almost lost his balance and fell back. Qin Chi helped him from behind in time. (End of chapter) Chapter 11 嫁入秦家第三天,揍人 Chapter 11 Married to the third day of the Qin family, stunned people "What are you doing in my room?!" Qin Mingsong was woken up as soon as he fell asleep while drunk, feeling angry. But years of self-control only made him get out of bed with a cold face. Qin Mingsong saw Song Xiu kneeling in embarrassment in front of Song Jin, crying and begging. Thinking of what Song Xiu said yesterday, he preconceived that Song Jin was bullying people again. "You dare to bully your own sister in public, how vicious were you before? Such a woman has no right to enter my Qin family!" Qin Mingsong scolded Song Jin angrily with a frosty look on his face. Immediately, Qin Mingsong sternly ordered to Qin Chi, "Da Lang, divorce this woman! In order to avoid damaging the lintel of my Qin family." There was a sudden silence. What is Qin Mingsong talking about? Let Dalang divorce his wife? Others felt that Song Jin was abnormal today. She had changed from her previous gentleness as a lady, and beat people more swiftly than them, but they never thought of divorcing her. Divorcing your wife in the countryside is a big deal. Song Jin and others haven''t spoken yet. Qin Chi, who was named by his uncle, said slowly and calmly: "Uncle, have you forgotten that our Qin family is just a humble family, not a wealthy family, so we don''t want to divorce our wives. Besides, grandma said that all the money in the family will be used for your education. I dont think I can afford to divorce my wife and marry another. " These words made Qin Mingsong''s handsome face distorted for a moment. Qin Chi''s words don''t sound nice but they are true. When Old Mrs. Liu heard that her father-in-law was asked to pay for another marriage, she immediately became unhappy and said, "Just divorce your wife. There is no family in the village that is not noisy." "Mom is right, you can''t divorce your wife for a trivial matter." Mr. Liu didn''t want to pay for it. Mr. Li, who usually doesn''t mind other people''s business, actually stood up and helped today: "There''s no way of saying who is right or wrong in this matter. Brother-in-law, don''t make a conclusion too early." After speaking, Mrs. Li glanced at Song Xiu. Song Xiu''s neck shrank when she saw it. She always felt that Mr. Li knew about it. Everyone looked at Old Man Qin. The real decision-maker in this family is Old Man Qin. Old man Qin asked: "Da Lang''s wife, please tell me." Song Jin noticed that Song Xiu, who was hugging her leg, was shaking. So she opened Song Xiu''s hand a little, squatted down and whispered a few words in Song Xiu''s ear. After hearing this, Song Xiu''s face twisted for a while. After struggling internally, Song Xiu nodded again, took out a purse from his sleeve pocket, secretly stuffed it into Song Jin''s hand, gritted his teeth and lowered his voice and said, "Song Jin, you''d better keep your word." "Of course, I won''t expose it in public." Song Jin put away his purse without leaving any trace. In other words, she never thought of saying it in public. Although it was very relieved to let Song Xiu suffer the consequences of being exposed in public, what if the news spread outside? Song Xiu''s reputation was ruined. What good can she, Song Jin, get from her? But if Song Jin did nothing, she couldn''t swallow the bad breath. The father sent them away in times of crisis in the hope that they could support each other in a strange environment. Instead of making a big fuss like now, it completely went against his original intention, but there was nothing he could do about it. I believe that her father will forgive her as a sister if he knows the reason, right? The momentum that Song Jin erupted at this time was quite bluffing. Song Jin said to Old Man Qin: "Some things are not good to say in public. If they are accidentally spread, it will not be good for us." Old Qin understood it as soon as he heard it. He waved the others out. Old Liu didn''t want to leave. Old Man Qin glared at her angrily, "Get out! If you keep messing around, you''ll have to deal with it, right?" "My mother is in charge of this family, what can''t I listen to?" Old Mrs. Liu was extremely dissatisfied with this. "Go out if I ask you to!" Seeing that Old Qin was about to get angry, Old Liu went out anyway. When he walked out of the door and saw other people gathered outside, Old Liu immediately found an outlet and raised his voice to curse: "What are you all doing here so stupidly? Have you finished the work in your hands?! You are all working for me, so who is sweeping the yard? You are cheating and sneaking around, sweep it again..." Old Liu''s curses were heard and became much quieter after closing the door. inside the house. There are five people left. That is Old Man Qin and two newlywed couples. Song Jin was about to speak when a slight movement suddenly came from the door, "Ms. sir, go and guard the door. The less people know about some things, the better." Qin Chi smiled and reluctantly followed the instructions. Old Mrs. Liu put her ear against the door panel and was about to eavesdrop when the door suddenly opened a crack and Qin Chi''s voice said loudly: "Miscellaneous! This eavesdropping is not what a gentleman does." "Go, go, your **** are mine!" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! What does a gentleman have to do with her, the old Liu family? Old Qin was angry, "Old Liu, go back to your house!" "Oh, this **** old man..." Old Mr. Liu could only leave reluctantly. Song Jin didn''t cover it up anymore and told Song Xiu about the scandal of confusing right and wrong, but what she got in return was Song Xiu''s disbelieving look. "Sister! You just promised me" Before Song Xiu could finish her excited words, Song Jin interrupted her. "Song Xiu, I promised not to expose you in public, but now there are only a few people, so it can''t be considered in public. If some things are not explained clearly in time, it will inevitably make a big joke." When Song Jin said the last words, he said them to Qin Mingsong. It was as if he was the one who made the joke. This made Qin Mingsong feel bad all over. Thinking about what Song Jin said just now, if it was the truth, then he believed Song Xiu''s words. Those words he said in front of Song Jin immediately made Qin Mingsong feel ashamed. Qin Mingsong is not brainless. If Song Jin dared to say this in front of old man Qin, then the truth would be almost certain. Qin Mingsong looked at Old Qin with shame, "Dad, is what she said just now true?" Old man Qin nodded. Old Liu was involved in this matter, and it is not difficult to verify the matter. Song Xiu was stunned now, like an eggplant beaten by frost, and she was dripping with cold sweat, "No, I never thought about harming my sister, I just... I just..." Then Song Xiu hugged Qin Mingsong and said in a panic, "I just like you too much and want to marry you. What''s wrong with me?" "I''m right, that''s right!" At this time, Song Xiu was unwilling to admit his mistake. Suddenly, Song Xiu turned to Song Jin like crazy, "Give me your wallet back, you liar!" Song Jin avoided the rushing Song Xiu, pushed her towards Qin Mingsong, and warned: "Your wife should take care of herself. Don''t let her cause trouble again." Flushing his sleeves, Song Jin said again: "Grandpa, what happened today won''t spread, right?" "This ends here." Old Qin went out with a dark face, immediately summoned his family and issued a gag order. The Qin family was prohibited from spreading the scandal to outsiders. The key point was to warn the two daughters who came as guests. They were not allowed to go back and tell anyone, not even their husbands and children. Song Jin started beating someone on the third day after marrying into the Qin family. Not only did Mr. Qin not punish her, but he also refused to let anyone know about it. From then on, Song Jin''s reputation as someone not to be trifled with was deeply rooted in people''s hearts. The next chapter will be updated tomorrow. Chapter 12 Its a crazy early morning Chapter 12 Its so early in the morning Song Jin had a cold face and returned to the room in silence. I sat there for a long time, feeling a touch of sadness all over my body. Qin Chi on the side felt a little sad, so he got up and went out with a sigh, going to the kitchen to make a pot of scented tea. "Madam, come and drink some tea to moisten your throat." Qin Chi asked Song Jin to sit over. Song Jin patted his cheeks with both hands and smiled out of habit, "Thank you sir, I''m really a little thirsty." After half a cup of tea. Song Jin lowered his eyes and asked, "Do you think I should forgive her?" "A gentleman is chaste and unforgiving." Qin Chi filled Song Jin''s cup with tea. Song Jin understood what he meant. This sentence comes from "The Analects of Confucius", and its meaning is that a gentleman sticks to the right path and cannot pay attention to credit regardless of right and wrong. According to Qin Chi, Song Xiu had no need to forgive. Song Jin said no more. Instead, he reached into his sleeve pocket and took out the purse he got from Song Xiu. It was the banknote Song Jin had given him earlier. One thousand taels, four in total. Qin Chi glanced at the banknotes. When the tea bowl was placed on the table, Qin Chi said calmly: "Erlang told me that he saw Nai this morning and went to see his aunt. The aunt gave Nai a banknote. He didn''t know how much it was, but Nai was He looked very excited..." "No wonder there are only four." There are ten banknotes in Luban Box, which add up to ten thousand taels. Song Jin gave half of it to Song Xiu. In just a short time, one thousand taels were gone. It''s not that Song''s father can''t afford more money, but he can''t give too much. If a helpless woman marries a girl in the countryside, too much money can easily lead to trouble. This money can ensure that the two daughters have enough food and clothing, but it cannot ensure that they have enough food and clothing. In her previous life, Song Xiu was extravagant and spent all her money long ago. Today Song Jin took the opportunity to get the money back, just to teach Song Xiu a lesson. Song Jin counted out two banknotes and handed them to Qin Chi. "What does this mean?" Qin Chi didn''t answer and asked interestingly. Song Jin said: "Take it if it''s given to you." "Then thank you madam." Qin Chi''s eyes are bright and starry, and his every smile carries a different charm. Song Jin silently looked away. The impression upon first meeting was so profound that Song Jin didn''t believe Qin Chi, who looked so harmless. Song Jin asked casually: "Qi''an is your character?" "Well, it was my mother who gave birth to her." Qin Chi had never taken part in the imperial examination, but when he was just three years old, Li gave him some enlightenment. "My mother''s family was in a fairly good condition when she was a child, and she had studied for several years. Later, she was forced to flee due to the war. Unfortunately, she was robbed by refugees on the way. She was the only one who was lucky enough to be saved by my father... He named me "Qi''an" because he hoped that I would be safe and safe in this life. " Song Jin felt inexplicably sad after hearing this. Everyone in the world has misfortunes, and they are not all the same. Qin Chi put away the tea bowl, obviously not wanting to talk anymore, "Go to rest early tonight. Since you don''t have to go back tomorrow, I will take you to the county seat." Song Jin suddenly raised his head and looked at him, that exquisitely beautiful little face full of hope. Qinjiagou is too far from the county seat. Just relying on one pair of legs, I''m afraid I''ll have to walk until dark. It happened that the Qin family had a carriage. Who knows that sometimes the more anxious you are to go to bed, the harder it will be to fall asleep. The next day, it was early in the morning. Song Jin, who was drowsily asleep, was woken up by Old Liu''s loud voice. Turn over and sit up, get dressed and comb your hair. The door was pushed open, and Qin Chi walked in from the outside, holding a wooden basin in his hand. A basin of clean water. "Are you awake?" Qin Chi put the wooden basin on the wash stand, "Come here and wash your face. I''m afraid there won''t be any breakfast. Let''s go out to eat early." "Song Xiu made breakfast today?" Song Jin asked while washing up, "What caused such a big commotion?" Qin Chi didn''t say much and just asked Song Jin to go out and take a look later to understand. Outside. Song Xiu looked sad. He was being scolded **** by old Mr. Liu. After being humiliated last night, Song Xiu wanted to show off his skills this morning to overshadow the big pot of porridge that Song Jin cooked last time. Ask Qin Mingsong to accompany her to the kitchen early. Qin Mingsong suggested making rice porridge, but Song Xiu insisted on kneading the dough, and then gave Huo Huo the flour saved by Mr. Liu. It would be better if it was made into pasta, but Song Xiu added too much water. Not only was it not kneaded into dough, it was all watery and the water was not even boiled. Even the dogs won''t eat the cooked food. Mrs. Liu was so distressed that she beat her chest. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Xiu hid behind Qin Mingsong and asked him to greet the violent storm of the old Liu family. Qin Mingsong''s face was very ugly. The hangover made him uncomfortable to begin with, but he didn''t sleep long before Song Xiu woke him up, saying it was too dark and asking him to accompany her to the kitchen. The hangover and lack of sleep gave Qin Mingsong a splitting headache. But old Mr. Liu was still cursing. Song Xiu over there was like an abused little daughter-in-law, shrinking back and saying nothing. "Mom, that''s enough!" Qin Mingsong looked extremely ugly, "Isn''t it just a breakfast? Just let others help make a meal." "Is this a breakfast thing?" When Mrs. Liu saw her son defending Song Xiu, her anger went straight to Tianling Gai. Song Xiu cried aggrievedly: "Yes, I''m sorry, I, I have never done kitchen work before, I don''t know how, wuwuwu..." "You wouldn''t! You wouldn''t have said it earlier. Don''t you have a mouth?" The more Mr. Liu thought about it, the angrier he became, and his attitude became even more acrimonious, "Half of the kitchen was burned down, and the white noodles were all destroyed by you! Now you''re here to tell me, you don''t know how?! I''ll beat you to death, you loser." You... are the whole family! It will be a lifetime of trouble for me, the Qin family, to marry you!" Old Mr. Liu beats people up when he gets started. "Mom! Didn''t you say you loved pasta earlier? I made it specially for you, but it''s just too difficult!" "When did I say this?" "That day my sister served you porridge, and I heard it very clearly. Although I failed to make noodles today, my filial piety is not wrong!" "You-" "Once raw, twice cooked. I will make sure to add less water next time... Oops, it hurts!" "I''ll beat you to death. I must beat you to death today!" Old Song Xiu hid next to Qin Mingsong. One chased and the other fled, circling Qin Mingsong, causing a lot of noise. Song Jin watched from a distance. The rest of the Qin family did the same, poking their heads in front of the door. The kitchen door was in a mess. Is this making breakfast or burning the kitchen? No wonder Qin Chi said he couldn''t count on breakfast today. Seeing Song Jin watching the excitement from a distance, Song Xiu glared at Song Jin hatefully. Its all Song Jins fault! Why did Song Jin just cook a big pot of rice porridge and everyone was so happy? She wanted to make pasta for Old Liu, but she still got beaten! No matter how much Song Xiu glared at him, Song Jin found her particularly pleasing to the eye today. Especially it can make old Mr. Liu furious. What a pleasure! Song Jin didn''t know at this moment that Song Xiu was causing more than just this kind of fun. Qin Chi once went to the kitchen to help Song Jin, so Song Xiu coaxed Qin Mingsong into the kitchen before dawn. I hope he can help me. Who knew that Qin Mingsong, who knew nothing but helping to light the fire, could light the firewood pile! Song Xiu did not surrender Qin Mingsong, but wanted to sell him. As expected, Qin Mingsong stood up to defend her! However, this kind of protection is undoubtedly a knife in the heart of the old Liu family, and he spared no effort in defeating Song Xiu. Thanks to my family for the reward ~ blowing kisses! (End of this chapter) Chapter 13 travel Chapter 13 Travel Qin Chi naturally reported to his parents when he went out. He didn''t say that he wanted to accompany Song Jin to the county town, but he made an excuse that he wanted to go to the academy and took Song Jin out to buy some daily necessities. Boss Qin has already hitched the carriage. People were waiting outside the door. When Song Jin was about to get on the carriage, Qin Chi reached out to stop him. "What''s the matter?" Song Jin was worried that he would change his mind. Qin Chi took out a power fence: "This belongs to my mother, you can use it for now." Song Jinfeng''s eyes flashed slightly: "What did you guess?" "No, I just know that beauty can add fragrance to a woman''s sleeves, or she can be a disaster." Qin Chi is so calm. Song Jin has outstanding appearance and extraordinary grace. It''s okay to stay in the village, but it''s hard to say in the county town. There is no shortage of bad guys who are motivated to do evil based on sex. People who don''t have any ability may not be able to protect her. When Song Jin got on the carriage, he saw a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, wandering in front of the Qin family''s gate. Song Jin recognized this person. Chen Dong''er, the eldest daughter of the village chief''s family, has long been attracted to Qin Mingsong. In her previous life, Song Jin was married to Qin Mingsong, who always caused trouble for Song Jin. Later, I felt that I couldn''t be a wife, so I wanted to be Qin Mingsong''s concubine, and I tried every possible means. It''s Qin Mingsong''s rotten peach blossom. Let Song Xiu do whatever he wants in this life, it will definitely be very lively. Song Xiu knew Chen Donger. Qin Mingsong didn''t like Chen Donger, but he didn''t dare to offend the village chief too much. The village chief''s family is one of the few households with a non-surnamed family in Qinjiagou, and the yamen deliberately allowed a non-surnamed person to be the village head, in order to prevent the family from becoming too powerful and violating the laws of Daxia. Song Jin was sitting in the carriage, and soon Qin Chi opened the curtain and came in. The carriage had just left the village entrance. "Brother!" "Brother, wait!" Qin Laoer''s words came from behind the carriage, "Xiaosi said he wanted to go back to the academy and asked the eldest brother to see him off." "I don''t have time, I want to see Dalang off." Boss Qin refused without even thinking. How can a younger brother compare with his son? If Old Man Qin asked, he would be honest. Qin Laoer said: "Aren''t you afraid that your mother will scold you?" "Just scold me. If you don''t scold me, I won''t see anyone missing a piece of flesh." Boss Qin is honest but not stupid. When Song Jin heard this in the carriage, he subconsciously looked at Qin Chi. Qin Chi smiled and said nothing. The carriage continued to move forward, and met some villagers on the road, leading mules to carry things, or riding in ox carts. Everyone knows him and will say hello to Boss Qin when he sees him. "Mingzhong, I heard that Dalang got married?" the old man driving the oxcart shouted loudly. "Yes." Mr. Qin responded with a big smile. "I know that. They say the man''s wife is pretty because of her appearance..." There were constant discussions outside. Gossip is human nature, no matter what dynasty, poor or rich. As we chatted, we came to the excitement of Lao Qin''s house this morning. There was not much malice, everyone was just having fun. Then the voice became quieter. It must be that the carriage is far away. Song Jin sighed slightly in his heart. This time Song Xiu was reborn, and at first Song Jin thought she would learn well. He is arrogant in front of her and pretends to be gentle and pleasant in front of outsiders. If you can keep pretending, your life may be good. In fact, if it is fake, it is fake, and the truth will be exposed easily when you poke it. Qin Chi explained: "There is a market in the village this morning. People in the village go to the market, so there are more pedestrians." "So that''s it." Song Jin guessed in his heart and expressed his surprise appropriately. In impoverished mountainous areas, it is impossible to survive by farming. Most of the people here have one or two skills. For example, the mountain people in Qinjiagou often sell their home-made things at rural fairs to earn some small money to support their families. It doesnt matter how good life is, but it is passable. I have to mention Hui merchants here. Hui merchants, commonly known as "Hui gang", is the general name for Huizhou merchants. They are very famous in history and are one of the three major business factions in the country. "Huizhou Prefecture Chronicle" records: "Huizhou Baojie Valley, the mountains are at the foot of the original land, the fields are barren, and the yield is very meager. Most of the income is one year old, and they cannot pay a tithe. Most of the small people are skilled in crafts, or they eat as much as they can. The county is always nineteen." There are many people in Huizhou doing business and buying, which is a natural trend. In short, many people living in this area will not be able to survive if they are not businessmen or do not learn a trade. During the Tang and Song Dynasties, in addition to the transportation and marketing of local products such as bamboo, wood, porcelain clay, and raw lacquer in Huizhou, the advent of tea and products such as She inkstones, Hui ink, and Chengxintang paper and pen further promoted the development of Huizhou merchants. When Qin Chi took out the Four Treasures of the Study as a betrothal gift, Song Jin was surprised but didn''t think it was too outrageous. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin''s father, Song Kuan, was also an Hui merchant. Song Jin also became a member of the Hui Gang in his previous life, but due to identity issues, he never showed up. In Song Jin''s previous life, before he started doing business, he had inquired about the whereabouts of his family, and the official in charge of the yamen said that they would be escorted to Beijing that night. Then Song Jin asked people to go to the capital to inquire. Several of the people sent there were lost, and those who came back alive said that the Capital Prison had not accepted prisoners from Huizhou Prefecture this year. After the Song family was arrested, they seemed to disappear out of thin air. For more than ten years, Song Jin made money and spent the money on searching for his family, but he never found any news about his family until his death! The carriage passed by the village market, and the sounds of vendors selling their goods were heard. Qin Chi got out of the car and bought ten steamed buns. The three of them shared the food. After more than an hour, we finally arrived at the county seat. Song Jin wanted to speak but stopped talking several times. Song Jin had pity, sympathy, and respect for Qin Chi, but lacked trust. This is not just true for Qin Chi. Song Jin was like this to outsiders. In her previous life, she was even on guard against Song Xiu and Old Man Qin. How could she and Qin Chi have known each other for only three or four days? "I want to go to Tachuan Academy." Qin Chi proposed in due course. Song Jin thought for a while and said, "I want to go to Dongda Street to buy something." The two of them were too smart to ask further questions. We agreed to meet at Dongjiekou at an hour. Song Jin put on the power fence and got out of the carriage. Looking at Song Jin''s retreating figure, Boss Qin asked, "Dalang, is it okay to let her go alone?" "No problem, the security in the county is acceptable." Qin Chi saw that Song Jin was an independent person and she had secrets hidden in her. "Dad, before I go to the academy, I will go to the bookstore in front to buy some paper." "OK." Boss Qin stopped the carriage by the side of the road. Qin Chi walked to the bookstore. Stepping into the bookstore, Qin Chi walked straight to the backyard. The clerk in the store didn''t stop him when he saw it was Qin Chi. In a wing in the backyard. The middle-aged shopkeeper, who was busy writing at his desk, saw Qin Chi coming in. He immediately stood up and greeted him respectfully, "Sir, are you here? I will ask someone to make tea for you." The shopkeeper was about to shout out. "No, I won''t be here long." Qin Chi waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to serve tea, and asked straight to the point, "How did the investigation go?" "It was found out. The person in the painting is the eldest lady of the Song family, a drug dealer in She County. She has been famous since she was a child. It''s a pity that God is jealous of beauty. Five days ago, the Song family committed an offense and their home was ransacked. Miss Song and the concubine Buried in the fire together." The middle-aged shopkeeper took out a small painting from the darkness of the shelf. On it was a portrait of Song Jin, as well as the investigation results from She County. (End of chapter) Chapter 14 Jifang Pharmacy Chapter 14 Jifang Pharmacy Store Qin Chi took the portrait, opened it, took a look at it, and put it away in his sleeve pocket. The Song brocade portrait was painted by Qin Chi. Qin Chi was wary of people who suddenly appeared around him, so he drew a small portrait of Song Jin that day and asked his men to investigate. It can be found out so quickly. One is that Qin Chi has a portrait, and the other is that Song Jin did not change his name when he came to the Qin family. When a girl in the boudoir is not married, her maiden name is rarely passed down to the outside world. After she gets married, she takes her husband''s surname, or only calls her by his surname. The shopkeeper added: "Not long after the Song family''s incident, some people started buying up Song''s medicinal materials. A small one also asked people to buy some spare parts, and the price was five times higher than what is on the market." Qin Chi understood the key as soon as he heard it. After the fall of the Song Dynasty, the medicinal materials on the market were used less and less. This is someone who saw a business opportunity in it. It seems that he is not the only one who does not believe that the Song family''s medicinal materials are fake. For hundreds of years, the Song family has always guarded one-third of an acre of land and has no intention of expanding. The drug dealers and doctors who cooperate with the Song family every year are all old acquaintances who know everything about it. Qin Chi once sent someone to contact the Song family and wanted to buy a batch of medicinal materials from the Song family. The Song family declined, saying that the medicinal materials had been ordered long ago and there was no excess. They also suggested that they purchase them from the drug dealer that the Song family cooperated with. The rhetoric is the same every year. Later Qin Chi understood that the Song family would not cooperate with people they were not familiar with. The Song family''s crime was related to military supplies in the northwest. As far as Qin Chi knew, the Song family''s medicinal materials were rationed every year and could not meet the military needs. Qin Chi read the investigation results. After just checking for a day or two, many of the things were superficial, but Qin Chi still saw something unusual. That night they ransacked their homes, not only the Song family, but also escorted the prisoners to Beijing overnight. When did the efficiency of government affairs become so high? "Sir, there is another interesting thing that happened. Do you want to hear it? It has something to do with the Song family." The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment, then spoke. Qin Chi said: "Say!" "The day after the young master returned to Qinjiagou, someone came up to Lao Huo and asked for the whereabouts of the Song family and a reward of five thousand taels. Seeing that the young master was in Qinjiagou and would not be needed for a while, Lao Huo wanted to make a fortune. So I took the job privately, but failed..." The team that liberated the Song family did not go north to the capital, but went south overnight. People went missing in Tunxi. Lao Huo was depressed because he had not finished his private work. Qin Chi asked: "Who came to Lao Huo?" "They are from Jifang Pharmacy. As far as I know, they are the dowry of Miss Song''s mother." As soon as the shopkeeper said this, Qin Chi immediately thought that Song Jin might know something. The Song family''s crimes were most likely framed. Qin Chi then ordered: "Send a message to the northwest to find out who made a mistake in supplying the medicinal materials to the northwest army and framed it for the Song family. Let Lao Huo continue to investigate the whereabouts of the Song family." After a pause, Qin Chi ordered again, "Assign someone to check on the Huizhou magistrate. I want to know who he met before the incident happened to the Song family." "Yes, sir." The shopkeeper took the order and went down. other side. Song Jin came to Jifang Pharmacy on East Street. There are no doctors at Jifang Pharmacy, and they only sell finished medicines or help people get medicines. People often come here with prescriptions for medicine. It''s two to three cents cheaper than other pharmacies. Rich people don''t care about pennies. But the poor mind. In order not to offend their peers, drug store owners will also explain to people who buy medicine that the few pennies they charge less are due to not hiring a doctor. With this statement. Its hard for other pharmacies to say that Jifang disrupts the drug price market. What''s more, Jifang Pharmacy didn''t hire a doctor, so it couldn''t take away their business. Song Jin stepped into the drug store. There are no customers in the store. It was just a female shopkeeper in her early forties, who was making calculations and checking accounts. When she saw someone coming in, she raised her head and was stunned. Song Jin wears a power fence. He couldn''t see his face clearly, but the female shopkeeper felt that the other person''s figure and temperament were familiar. "Aunt Ling." Song Jin said. The female shopkeeper stood up suddenly, "Little...little lady?" He quickly walked around the counter and closed the store door. Song Jin lifted the power barrier. The female shopkeeper Jin Ling came forward with tears in her eyes and hugged Song Jin, "Miss, I was almost frightened when I heard that something happened to Song''s house. Fortunately, you sent a letter of safety. But why didn''t you let us go and inquire? "The enemies of the Song family are not simple, and it will be in vain to kill many people." The letter was sent by Song Jin to Old Man Qin. In her previous life, Song Jin was immersed in sadness and did not contact Jin Ling and the others in time. They went to the government office to inquire, but were targeted instead. One of them died and the other was seriously injured. The seriously injured person was Yinlong''s husband. The person who died was Jin Ling''s only son. Jin Ling and Yinlong were the eldest maids of Song Jin''s mother and grew up with her. When Song Jin was one year old, Song''s mother died of illness. The two of them took good care of Song Jin. When Song Jin was eleven years old, he followed his father to a mountain villager''s house to collect medicinal herbs. After returning home, he suddenly had the idea to use his private money to open a medicine shop and collect a lot of medicinal herbs to give to his father. When opening a shop, you must have trustworthy people to help you. Song Jin thought of Jin Ling and Yinlong. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The two had served Song''s mother for half their lives, and had taken care of Song Jin as he grew older. Song Jin asked his father to show mercy and return the two people''s deeds, but his father returned them along with the deeds of their husbands and children. He didn''t ask for anything, he just asked them to work well for Song Jin in the future. Song Kuan did this because he wanted to teach his daughter a lesson. Teach her that when she shows kindness to others, she must extend it to their hearts. For Jin Ling and Yinlong, they are not obsessed with restoring their own good status. Instead, they value the future of their children more. The outside world is not that easy to mess around with. The two families have no foundation and it is not easy to make a living in Huizhou Prefecture. When Song Jin comes to them again and asks them to help take care of the shop, they will definitely be grateful and do their best. Of course, Song Kuan dared to do this without fear of betrayal from both families. My daughter is still young and her life is too stable, which is not always a good thing. Only children who have experienced setbacks will grow up quickly. Song Jin used his personal money to open a medicine shop, and also gave Jin Ling and Yinlong copies of medical books and key points on growing medicinal materials collected at home. As a prefecture in Huizhou, She County is the political, economic and cultural center of Huizhou and the place where the Song family has been operating for hundreds of years. Naturally, Song Jin would not steal his own business, so he finally chose the smallest county, Yixian County, to open his shop. Because Song Jin was young, Jin Ling signed the contract for the lease of the store. Because of this, when the house was raided, Song Jin''s small medicine shop slipped through the net. The original intention of Jifang Pharmacy is not to sell medicines, but to collect herbal medicines and develop medicine farmers. When they meet people who have no money to buy medicine and see a doctor, Jin Ling and others will teach them how to identify herbal medicines and collect medicines in exchange for money. Only those who have observed good character will be recruited as herb farmers and teach people to grow herbal medicines. Seeds are provided by pharmacies. A contract will be signed before planting, and when the harvest is harvested, it can only be sold to Jifang Pharmacy and purchased at the normal market price. He opened the shop for six years. I lost a lot of money in the first year. But the losses are getting smaller year by year, and it started to make a profit last year. Song Jin knew that the drug store would make more money year by year in the future. The biggest reason is that Jifang Drug Store has spent several years cultivating a group of drug farmers. There will be a stable source of medicinal materials in the future. Song Jin, who had just made great achievements, wanted to show off to his father this year, but unexpectedly something happened to the Song family! After Jin Ling cried, she asked: "Little miss, where are you hiding now? Do you want to stay at our house first?" "I''m getting married..." Song Jin came here to tell Jin Ling and the others that she lived in Qinjiagou and got married while hiding her identity. "Aunt Ling, please tell Aunt Long that I am safe now. Also, the person I asked you to help contact... " "The man wrote back and said that Mr. Song and the others were missing in Tunxi." "really" I didnt go to Beijing in my previous life! Didn''t you expect to go south? ! Tunxi? Tunxi Pier! In an instant, sadness surged into Song Jin''s heart like a tide. I spent more than ten years in my previous life without finding any clues. It turns out that the key is here. Huizhou Prefecture''s business is booming, and Tunxi Pier is home to a large number of freight ships. There are many ships coming and going every day. If you want to secretly transport a group of people, it is like a stream flowing into the sea. No trace to be found. Can I find my family again in this life? Song Jin could only pray that it wouldn''t take long and there would be traces to follow, "Aunt Ling, help me contact that person. I want to talk to him in person." Jin Ling wanted to persuade Song Jin. Thinking of his own identity, he could only nod in agreement. (End of chapter) Chapter 15 trade Chapter 15 Transaction After about half an hour. Song Jin wore the power fence and came to Shun''an Bookstore on the same street. He was taken to a tea room where guests were waiting. Song Jin was still wondering, could it be too coincidental? As soon as Aunt Ling contacted the other party, the other party invited her to meet here. Even more coincidentally, Shun''an Bookstore is on the street. And Jifang Pharmacy is at the end of the street. It can be said that Song Jin has exhausted all methods to find his family in his previous life. Later, an Huizhou businessman who came to do business with Song Jin regretfully told her some past events, saying that there once was a very powerful man named Lao Huo in Yixian County. He was in his thirties and had strong martial arts. Occasionally he would take on some private work in his free time. . Later I heard that the person he protected died. And he actually apologized with death. "Ma''am, please have some tea." The shopkeeper of the bookstore came in personally bringing a cup of tea. Hearing the other party''s word "ma''am", Song Jin didn''t think much about it, mainly because she was wearing a woman''s bun. When the shopkeeper exited, he closed the door. Song Jin did not touch the tea on the table and quietly waited for the other party''s arrival. "You are very calm." A deep and hoarse male voice came from behind the screen in the room. Song Jin was slightly surprised, "Your Excellency, are you Lao Huo?" "no." The man denied it in a deep voice and said, "Lao Huo is in Tunxi at the moment. I am his boss, so you can talk to me about anything." The voice was deliberately changed to make it difficult to tell her true age. Song Jin''s heart tightened slightly. Coming out this time was an adventure. But in order to find out the whereabouts of his family, Song Jin would still come here even though he knew there were risks. Song Jin calmed down and said slowly: "Have you ever heard of the four great medicines for pregnant women?" "Want to hear the details." "According to legend, in ancient times, Emperor Yan Shennong was seriously ill. In order to cure his illness, he led hundreds of civil and military officials, wives and families to travel across mountains and rivers and travel among the people. In a crisp autumn season, a group of people went to Huaichuan and encountered a magical mountain called Lingshan. Shennong sighed: It is truly a blessed land of gods, a mountain of medicine! So he discerned the five grains, tasted hundreds of herbs, went to the altar to offer sacrifices to heaven, and finally got four kinds of grass roots, flower stamens and water to drink, and he recovered soon. It also ordered the four organs of mountain, earth, cow, and chrysanthemum to protect their values. They were named after people: yam, rehmannia glutinosa, achyranthes root, and chrysanthemum. "Shen Nong''s Materia Medica" lists all four medicines as top-grade. When the emperors of the past dynasties collected tributes of medicine, they mostly referred to authentic names, that is, they had to keep the rehmannia root of Jiazhuang and Daodao Temple, the yam of Dalangzhai, the chrysanthemum of Huangfu Village, and the achyranthes of Xiaomiaohou..." Qin Chi looked across the screen at Song Jin who was talking eloquently, and thought about the stunning face under the power fence, feeling slightly lost in thought. "As long as your people can help me find the whereabouts of the Song family, I will give you all the hidden property of the Song family in Huaiqing Mansion." Song Jin knew that the Song family had hidden property. Song Kuan did not make it clear to his daughter out of the desire to protect her. Song Jin in his previous life only learned about it a few years later. Qin Chi originally thought that the Song family was at the end of its rope, but he still had a trump card. You can understand it if you think about it. Just because the Song family doesn''t expand on the outside doesn''t mean it can''t do it behind the scenes. The cunning rabbit has three caves. Qin Chi is very interested in the "Four Great Medicines", especially the huge wealth behind them. As the saying goes: The soil and water support people, and the soil and water support herbs. The four major medicinal herbs are local specialties. Medical masters of the past dynasties further discovered the excellent original nature of the four great medicinal herbs by looking from the outside to the inside, removing the gross and retaining the essence. But those five places have always been controlled by aristocratic families. The Song family actually has an industry there! I have to say that Qin Chi was moved. Brothers have to settle accounts openly, let alone couples who are not familiar with each other. Qin Chi''s eyebrows moved slightly and he said in a hoarse voice: "You should understand what it means when someone disappears in Tunxi. I can''t guarantee that the person will be found." "As long as you try your best to find him, within three years, even if you don''t find anyone, half of the property in Huaiqing Mansion will still belong to you. I will ensure that there will be two Zhuangzi who grow the four major Huaiying medicines in the property." Song Jin was too weak at this time and had no capable people at his disposal. As long as there is a glimmer of hope at this time, we will not hesitate to spend a lot of money. Under the huge inducement, Song Jin believed that the other party would do his best. Qin Chi was surprised by Song Jin''s generosity. The lady is too innocent and easy to deceive. It almost made him relent, that is to say, almost, in fact, instead of taking a step back, he pushed even further. The man on the other side of the screen was silent for a long time. When two parties are negotiating, one party is silent for a long time, which can easily cause a certain sense of oppression to the other party. Song Jin, who was at this age in his previous life, would have been unable to calm down for a long time. Now sitting here is a big Huizhou merchant in his previous life, with business all over the country. "I have a condition. As long as you agree, I guarantee that within three years, I will try my best to track down the whereabouts of your family." Song Jin stood up suddenly. The other party said they were trying to track down...the whereabouts of their family members? So, he knows her identity? Song Jin suddenly felt uneasy, but he didn''t show it on his face, and asked calmly: "What are your conditions?" "I want to purchase the Song family''s medicinal materials within three years. At the same time, I will help you investigate the people behind the scenes who framed the Song family." Song Jin asked: "At the market price?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Well, yes." Qin Chi was in a good mood. I went to the Song family many times before and was always rejected. This time my wish finally came true. Song Jin solemnly said: "Then I agree. I hope you will do what you say." "A gentleman''s promise." From this moment on, the deal between the two was concluded. No contract is required to be signed. A contract like this without an official seal only binds gentlemen, and can never bind villains. The specific medicinal material transaction needs to be negotiated between Qin Chi and Jifang Pharmacy. Song Jin left first. Wait for the bookkeeper to come over. Upon hearing Qin Chi''s instructions, the shopkeeper was stunned, "Market, market price? Master, are you sure?" "Based on the market price, I can''t take advantage of a woman..." Qin Chi thought of something and suddenly his face turned dark. A hundred secrets and a sparseness. The previous market price was acceptable, and Qin Chi still took advantage of it, but since the incident with the Song family, the market price has been changing day by day. Especially a few medicinal materials that are uniquely cooked by the Song family. Nowadays it is worth as much as gold. When Qin Chi thought that the contract hadn''t been signed yet, he simply pretended not to know, "When the time comes, you can go talk to shopkeeper Jin. The price shouldn''t be too outrageous. It''s best to follow the market price before the Song family''s accident." "Okay, sir." The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the young master is still reasonable and has not been dazzled by beauty. Song Jin left the bookstore. Jin Ling waited outside and was relieved when she saw Song Jin came out safe and sound. "Little miss..." "Go back to the shop first." The two of them walked to the shop together. Passing by a grocery store. Song Jin went in to buy some things. Song Jin bought all the small things that are used in daily life, such as needles, threads, bronze mirrors, wooden combs and basins. I also prepared gifts for the adults and children of the Qin family. Song Jin thought about it and bought another piece of cotton, planning to make herself clothes and close-fitting clothes. A total of more than ten taels were spent. Back at the drug store, Song Jin sat quietly in front of the counter. Not long after, I picked up a pen and wrote down a list. Each person''s name is followed by an address. There were hundreds of people. "Aunt Ling, go and give to the people on the list, give each family ten pounds of white flour, rice, and a piece of pork belly. Tell them...this is an early gift from the old Song family this year." Song Jin''s eyes were filled with mist, and tears welled up in his eyes. After being quiet for a long time, Song Jin slowly spoke again, "Let them take care of the herbs with peace of mind. Even if the Song family in She County is not here, they will not be affected. At a fixed time every year, the Song family will still go to collect the herbs. The price is Old rules. "yes." Jin Ling cried silently. (End of chapter) Chapter 16 Song Xiu is making trouble again Chapter 16 Song Xiu makes trouble again Song Jin left a thousand-tael silver note to Jin Ling, and after explaining some things, he carried a basket of things on his back and went to Dongjiekou as agreed. The carriage was waiting there. Qin Chi stood beside the carriage. When he saw her coming, he took the basket and put it on the carriage, and then stretched out his fair right hand towards Song Jin. Pretending to help Song Jin get into the car. Song Jin was stunned. Seeing that she didn''t respond, Qin Chi didn''t take his hand back, but just looked at her. Song Jin hesitated for a moment, then put his left hand into his palm. Qin Chi subconsciously tightened his grip, feeling warm and soft, and quickly put away the strangeness in his heart. "Ma''am, is there anything else you can do?" Song Jin smiled and said, "No more, you can go back." The two got on the carriage one after another. Boss Qin felt happy when he saw the couple getting along well. He imagined that he would have a grandson in the near future, and he happily hummed folk tunes while driving the carriage. Song Jin didn''t know at this time. Song Xiu is in trouble again! As soon as the carriage entered the village, Boss Qin noticed something was wrong. A group of villagers gathered around the door of his house, pointing and talking. "What''s wrong?" Qin Chi opened the car curtain and came out first. Boss Qin held the reins of the horse and said, "I don''t know what happened at home." He wanted to take a look, but he had to hold the horse for fear that the crowd would frighten the horse. Wait for Qin Chi to get off the car. Song Jin also put on a power fence and came out. When I heard a girl crying faintly from inside the house, "...she ruined my reputation, I can''t live anymore...wuwuwu..." "Fourth brother, who ruined her reputation? She didn''t just come to our house on her own, but she still wanted to get close to you..." Song Xiu''s voice sounded even more aggrieved, and she was crying and touching. Song Jin heard this. Got it, this is a big deal. Old Qin spoke: "It''s done, this is a misunderstanding. Village chief, it''s okay for children to have conflicts. Just talk it over." Then, Old Man Qin looked outside the door and added: "So as not to make the villagers laugh." Village Chief Chen is a middle-aged man with a somewhat blessed body. No matter how unhappy I was, I was awakened by Old Man Qin''s last words. If the trouble continues, his daughter''s reputation will be ruined. "Brother Qin is right. Just let the misunderstanding go. When will there be no fights in the village? Let''s break up!" "The village chief is still sensible." Old man Qin praised him and signaled Qin Mingsong to take Song Xiu back to the room quickly. Song Xiu got into a fight with Chen Dong''er today because she was angry, "How can you be sensible and raise such a shameless person..." Qin Mingsong covered Song Xiu''s mouth, asked Xiao Liu to come up, and took Song Xiu to the main room first. "Okay, uncle." Mrs. Liu came up with a red face and dragged Song Xiu into the main room. Lin also came up to help. Old Mrs. Liu was sitting under the eaves, her old face elongated. "Uncle Chen, Xiu''er just got married and doesn''t know anyone in the village yet. Suddenly I see a strange girl talking to me, so I will inevitably have a misunderstanding. I hurt Miss Chen on impulse. My family will come to accompany me later. crime." Qin Mingsong explained today''s incident in public. The incident was determined to be that Song Xiu misunderstood Chen Donger and caused an oolong incident. Immediately, Qin Mingsong bowed his hands to the villagers outside the door. Just when he was about to explain a few words, when he saw Song Jin and Qin Chi standing behind the crowd, his face suddenly felt hot. Extremely embarrassed, ashamed and angry. He quickly tried to regain his composure. Qin Mingsong said loudly: "Today''s incident is purely a misunderstanding. It is related to the reputation of the girl''s family. I hope all uncles and aunts will not spread the word, so as not to damage the reputation of the village. It is Mingsong''s fault." "Don''t worry, no one will say anything." "At most, this is only talked about in the village. If word spreads, it will also have an impact on the girls in the family." "That''s right, it''s best not to spread it outside. It''s all nonsense." Village Chief Chen then shouted loudly. "I don''t!" Chen Donger screamed hysterically. "That bitch, why did you marry Brother Mingsong! I''m going to" "Dong''er!" A woman next to her slapped Chen Dong''er hard in the face to prevent her from saying shocking words again, "Dong''er, listen to me, don''t make any more nonsense." Chen Donger was stunned. Village Chief Chen''s face didn''t look good either. It was so hard to get over it just now, and it would be strange for outsiders not to think too much about Chen Donger''s troubles. In the main room. When Song Xiu heard Chen Dong''er''s words, she couldn''t help but curse in a low voice: "Shameless bitch... I miss someone else''s husband." In the previous life, this **** only missed Qin Mingsong, but in the end she was dealt with by Song Jin and married far away in disgrace. Qin Mingsong has always been disgusted with Chen Donger. People are ugly and have no self-awareness. Every time he came back from the academy, she always found various reasons to see him, like a fly that couldn''t be shaken off. Song Xiu had a fight with Chen Dong''er today, but Qin Mingsong didn''t feel unhappy at all. The biggest dissatisfaction is that this matter has made a big fuss and caused him embarrassment. Song Jin picked up a large backpack. Qin Chi originally wanted to help, but Song Jin wouldn''t let him. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! This is a sick man, who dares to let him do heavy work? Standing at the door, Song Jin saw a big show. Now Chen Dong''er is still sitting in the Qin family''s yard and acting messy, her hair is messy, her dress is stained with mud and grass clippings, and there are slap marks on her cheeks. She clamored that Song Xiu had ruined her reputation and that Qin Mingsong should be held responsible. Song Jin smiled and said: "Chen Dong''er, Mrs. Song has ruined your reputation. It''s fine to ask her to pay compensation or pay you a few dollars, but what''s the matter with Qin Mingsong? Could it be that the drunkard''s intention is not to drink?" "Hahaha" "It''s true, it doesn''t make sense." "Whenever two women fight, just let their men take responsibility!" "Qin Ergou, what good things are you thinking about? It''s not your turn to have such good things, and you don''t have a wife!" "Hahaha" "Ha ha!" Another burst of laughter. This time, you are still covering up! Village Chief Chen was also furious and shouted at his mother-in-law: "Ms. Mao, why don''t you drag this person back and make him look embarrassed if he stays here?" After saying that, Village Chief Chen huffed and left first! Really shameless. So Mao, the village chief''s daughter-in-law, and her daughter-in-law picked up Chen Dong''er and took her away. Song Jin also gave way to them. Most of the people here are from the Qin clan, so there''s nothing they can''t say. An old woman looked Song Jin up and down, "Is this the elder man''s wife?" Qin Chi responded with a smile: "Third uncle and grandma, she is my wife. Madam, come and call someone." "Hello, third uncle and grandma!" Song Jin shouted naturally, took out a bag of candies from his backpack, and gave a handful to his third uncle and grandma. Then, Song Jin was distributed to others. There are people who see it, but not many, just sweet words to please people. Wait for everyone to disperse. Only then did the two enter the house. With Song Jin''s behavior, probably no one will criticize the Qin family anymore. After all, they are soft-spoken. "Madam, it''s you who will cause trouble." Qin Chi''s praise was sincere and comprehensive. Song Jin smiled, "What are you talking about?" "Haha, cough." Qin Chi picked up the backpack on the ground and entered the yard. Song Jin was afraid that it was too heavy for him to carry, so he quickly followed him. Back in the house, Qin Chi went out again. Song Jin took down the power fence. Even when she saw Song Xiu hurried in from outside, she looked no better than Chen Donger. Her hair was messed up and her clothes were dirty. As soon as he arrived, Song Xiu rummaged through Song Jin''s backpack and said accusingly: "Sister, why didn''t you call me when you went shopping in the county town? What did you buy for me? I don''t have anything, not even a toothpaste to brush my teeth!" Song Jin slapped Song Xiu''s hand away and pulled the basket away. "Song Xiu, you are so capable, do you need me to buy something?" "Sister, why are you like this?" Song Xiu was unhappy, "Isn''t it because you didn''t buy it for me? You would give me a share of whatever you bought before." Isn''t it just a matter of exchanging relatives? You haven''t calmed down yet? "hypocritical!" Song Xiu snorted coldly, "You''re lying to a fool if you say you don''t mind changing marriages." Song Jin laughed angrily again. Does she mind changing marriages? It''s because she cares about Song Xiu''s cruelty and completely ignores her Song Jin''s innocence and sisterhood! But it doesn''t matter. Song Jin is no longer who she once was, and Song Xiu is no longer truly young. Chapter 17 Qin Chi is really damaged Chapter 17 Qin Chis real loss When he learned from Li what happened at home when they went to the county town, Qin Chi was speechless for a while. "It''s a good thing you didn''t marry this troublemaker." When Mrs. Li learned that her son was being plotted against by Mr. Liu, she felt a little unhappy. Now there is a contrast. Mrs. Li felt very happy, "I didn''t expect that your grandmother would do something good." Qin Chi smiled An Ran. At this time, Qin Chi didn''t know at all. He was married in his previous life, but Song Xiu had not been reborn at that time. She was still a real fourteen-year-old girl. Suddenly living in a strange environment, no matter how willful she was, she temporarily restrained herself because of fear. But now Song Xiu is reborn. Knowing the future, she seems confident. In fact, Song Xiu didn''t eat breakfast and was very hungry. I accidentally bumped into Chen Donger with a shy look on her face, holding a steamed bun to show her courtesy to Qin Mingsong. He immediately had a fight with Chen Donger! Qin Mingsong couldn''t hold him back even if he wanted to. Song Xiu insisted on making a big fuss today because she wanted to make Chen Donger lose face so that she would not dare to miss her man again in the future. However, Song Xiu underestimated Chen Donger''s fighting ability. Although Chen Dong''er is the same age as Song Xiu, she has been working hard for many years. Song Xiu was beaten badly. If the Qin family hadn''t come out to stop him, Song Xiu would have been beaten even worse. After Chen Dong''er returned home, she came to Qin''s house again in the afternoon and asked Qin Mingsong to take responsibility for the nonsense she said in the morning to ruin her reputation. This disgusted Qin Mingsong. Song Xiu immediately fought with Chen Donger again. Later, things got serious and attracted people from the village to watch. Village Chief Chen and his family arrived in a hurry. It was noisy and endless, and finally Qin Chi and Song Jin came back just in time to see the ending. Song Jin came to the main room with a bunch of gifts, and everyone gathered together, waiting for dinner. Xiao Liu''s eyes lit up, "Daughter-in-law, is it serious? Do you want my help?" "Okay, second aunt." Song Jin handed the gift belonging to the second wife to Xiao Liu. Xiao Liu was very happy. Song Jin distributed the gifts one by one. Both adults and children are present, but Qin Mingsong and Song Xiu are not. Others found out and pretended not to know. But some people are not happy. "Sister, where are my fourth brother and me?" Song Xiu smiled lightly and sat next to Qin Mingsong, gentle and pleasant, as if she was not the one making the fuss today. Song Jin smiled and said: "Sisters, don''t we give you too much in the past? Don''t be so blind, you will only make people laugh." "Then neither does my fourth brother." Song Xiu wanted to prevent Song Jin from stepping down. It was Song Jin''s fault that he didn''t prepare all the gifts. Song Jin smiled and said nothing. Qin Chi was unhappy, "Auntie, shouldn''t you prepare uncle''s things? My wife is a polite person and knows how to avoid suspicion." "Then there are eldest brother, second brother and third brother, so why don''t you avoid suspicion?" Song Xiu was unyielding and unforgiving. Song Jin indeed didn''t buy gifts for the two of them. Mainly due to a little diaphragm. I was a bit willful, but I just didnt want to give Qin Mingsong anything. The surrounding atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Qin Chi''s cold eyes flashed past. "Da Lang, don''t argue with my aunt, she is still young and not sensible." Qin Mingsong spoke in the tone of an elder and continued very magnanimously, "It''s okay to forget this time. As an uncle, I''m not that stingy." "hehe." Qin Chi straightened his clothes, sat upright again, and said with a half-smile: "This is my wife''s first visit to the county town when she first entered the family. She deliberately brought a gift to my family to show her closeness. But my brother-in-law is different. Strictly speaking, Get up, I still need to call my nephew brother-in-law. "Pfft!" "Haha...brother-in-law?" A few of the little ones couldn''t help but laugh. Sanlang smiled the most exaggeratedly, "Haha, my uncle is going to call me brother-in-law!" Song Jin couldn''t hold it back either. This is a real loss to Qin Chi. It would be strange for Qin Mingsong to scream. Just thinking about that situation, Boss Qin and others couldn''t help laughing. Except for the two elders sitting at the table, everyone in the family looked at Qin Mingsong, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh. "Dalang, what nonsense are you talking about? That''s your brother-in-law. Of course it depends on the seniority of our old Qin family." Old Liu said with a dark face. Even Old Man Qin had nothing to say. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! At that time, the marriage was arranged in a hurry and the issue of seniority was not taken into consideration. Only then did he finally realize that the hierarchy was indeed messed up. Song Jin spoke at the right time, "In the Qin family, we will be counted according to the Qin family''s seniority. In the future, when we are guests in the Song family, we will be from the Song family." "My wife is still sensible." Qin Chi had no objection. If he really dared to ask his uncle to call him brother-in-law at home, his grandparents would definitely not agree, let alone whether his uncle knew how to call him. So no one mentioned the gift again, and the dinner started in a weird atmosphere and ended in a weird atmosphere. Later, Qin Mingsong mentioned that he would rush back to Ziyang Academy overnight. He hurried home this time to stop the engagement, but unexpectedly he was forced to get married. Thinking of his sweetheart who was still in Fucheng, he couldn''t help but feel anxious. Song Xiu reluctantly said, "Can''t fourth brother stay at home for a few more days?" "I only took three days off. Time is already tight. I have to go to Fucheng overnight today to catch up with my classes tomorrow morning." When Qin Mingsong said this, Song Xiuzhuang had to pretend to be considerate and not talk about trying to stay. Song Jin sneered in his heart. Of course I have to rush back in a hurry, otherwise how can I explain it to my sweetheart? Then I thought about it, Qin Mingsong was in Fucheng, and as long as he didn''t tell anyone, no one would know that he was married. When the time comes, he will still be that brilliant literary talent. At this time, Song Xiu did not dare to set foot in Fucheng. Song Xiu was not a low-key person before. From the age of twelve, Song Xiu often attended private poetry gatherings, literary appreciation gatherings, flower appreciation gatherings and other activities held by ladies in her boudoir. It cannot be said that all young masters and ladies from wealthy families in Fucheng know Song Xiu, but many of them have met her. Song Xiu himself knew it very well. At this moment, I didnt dare to mention going to Fucheng with Qin Mingsong. Otherwise, with her temper, she would never be so peaceful... Old Liu turned to look at Boss Qin. I wanted Boss Qin to send Qin Mingsong to Fucheng. Mrs. Li was the first to speak gently and gently: "Ms. sir, you have worked hard today. You must be tired. Go back to your room and rest early." "Okay, I''ll go right away." Boss Qin stood up and left stupidly, not forgetting to take away the jar of tea that Song Jin gave him. This blockage made Old Liu''s chest feel depressed. Unfilial son! He was born to make her angry! The third child said nothing, grabbed his own jar of tea and ran away quickly. Who wants to send someone off at night? In the end, the hard work fell to Qin Laoer. Who makes him run the slowest? No one noticed that there was a gloomy look in Qin Mingsong''s eyes. Since when was he no longer welcome in this family? No matter how careless he was, Qin Mingsong realized the seriousness of the problem today. Looking back, there was nothing unusual about it. Studying abroad is enough for him, so he seldom spends his energy at home. When I am at home, I rarely go to my parents to show my filial piety... (End of chapter) Chapter 18 The man who offended Yue Lao Chapter 18 The man who offended Yue Lao Qin Mingsong left home and went to the academy. Qin Chi, who stayed at home, became a conspicuous bag. Old Man Qin called him to the main room just to talk about the prosperity and loss of both. As people grow older, how can they not see that Qin Chi is dissatisfied with Qin Mingsong today? Dont worry about scarcity but inequality. Especially the old Mr. Liu, who clings to Qin Mingsong for everything, is inevitably a bit harsh on his family members. At that time, Ms. Li wanted to send her son to study, but Ms. Liu was opposed to it, saying that the family could not afford a second scholar. Old Man Qin couldn''t help it. With his craftsmanship, he really couldn''t supply it. When Qin Chi went to study, all the expenses were borne by Mr. Qin and Mr. Li, without spending a penny from the family. When Qin Chi grew up, he learned to make Hui ink by himself, and often subsidized several children in his family. Erlang and Sanlang were able to go to a nearby private school for enlightenment, and it was because of Qin Chi''s money and effort. With Qin Chi''s comparison. Qin Mingsong''s selfishness became even more apparent. Just for himself, never caring about the life or death of his family. The three brothers didn''t say anything because of their filial piety and family affection. But the human heart has its weight, and it is clear in my heart who is less important and who is more important. Several days followed. Song Xiu kept to himself, and old Liu did not act like a monster. During the Song Dynasty, I went to the county again. It was learned that Jin Ling and others had followed Song Jin''s instructions to contact the drug farmers that the Song family had previously cooperated with. These pesticide farmers are distributed in six counties in Huizhou. Most of them are in She County, Jixi County, Xiuning County and Qimen County, and only two are in Yi County. Most of them have been working for the Song family for several generations. A few were recently trained by the Song family. After something happened to the Song family, some drug dealers began to contact them frequently, hoping to take advantage of the opportunity to carve up the property left by the Song family. Only these drug farmers were a bit resigned and said that if the date agreed with their old employer for collecting the medicine has not come this year, they would not replace it with another person to sell it. Wait until no one comes to collect the medicine. Of the families on the list, only five did not want to accept the boxing gifts. The reason was that they thought that if something happened to the Song family, they would not ask for any more herbs, so they agreed to give them to others. The person who came to deliver the Boxing Day gift was Jin Ling''s son Zhou Wei. Zhou Wei did not fall out, and still put down the gift with a smile, saying that it was a gift from his master, and as an errand boy, he was not qualified to take it back. If the business fails, benevolence and righteousness remain. Jin Ling explained: "In the eyes of these people, the Song family is gone, and they are worried that no one will accept their medicinal materials. Someone came to contact them at this time, offered a high price, and agreed to resell..." "Are these companies that have not cooperated with the Song family for a long time?" Song Jin flipped through the list above. Jin Ling nodded, "We will cooperate for three to five years." "That''s okay." Song Jin never thought that he could keep everyone behind. The situation now was much better than she expected. The last time she contacted these people in her previous life was two years later. Most of the drug farmers have changed their owners, leaving only thirteen farmers who stick to their roots and live in poverty without any complaints. In fact, these people were originally slaves of the Song family, and it was the Song family who restored them to good status with kindness. Later, Song Jin came to visit, and they followed Song Jin. Song Jin is short of manpower now, so he goes to the Thirteenth Family to pick people first. "Little miss, we sent the holiday gifts and also collected a batch of medicinal herbs. Do you want to use them?" Jin Ling only knew some simple methods of preparing medicinal herbs. Song Jin ordered: "Select the best ones and I will prepare them myself." "Okay." Jin Ling responded. Nowadays, the drug store is short of manpower and busy with many things. Jin Ling bought two people from the dental store the day before yesterday and arranged for them to select, clean and dry the fresh medicinal materials. Song Jin drew thirteen families on their names, "If any of these dozen families are useful, hire them to help." "Okay, let Wei''er choose someone when he comes back." Jin Ling put away the list. Just at this time. There was a noise at the back door of Jifang Pharmacy. Someone pushed open the door. One of the men strode in and shouted in a loud voice: "Mom? I''m back. It''s so hot today, I really don''t want anyone to live." "Is Wei''er back?" Jin Ling knew who it was by hearing the voice. This man is in his early twenties, wearing a short game, with a resolute face and chiseled features. He has been running errands outside for a long time. His skin is tanned and he looks very stable. He wiped the sweat with his sleeves and walked towards the front yard. "The old medicine man sent someone to spread the word, saying that he got a lot of leopard skin camphor in Emerald Valley. I hurried over and he actually said that he had just been sold! This makes me angry-" "Really? Most herb collectors will not break their trust." Song Jin spoke one sentence after another with a smile. Hearing this, Zhou Wei was stunned for a moment. When he saw Song Jin standing in front of him, smiling like a fairy, Zhou Wei''s maihuang face turned red. "Dong, boss, you are here!" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Zhou Wei was a straightforward man just now, but suddenly he became cautious, "Zhou Wei has met my boss." "You''re welcome, we''re all members of our own family. Can you tell me why the old medicine man went back on his word?" "He said that the man pretended to be one of mine, and he sold it without any suspicion." Zhou Wei became fierce when he thought of this, "Don''t let me find out who that **** is? I will definitely not let him go... " "Get someone to check it out at Huairen Medicine Hall." Song Jin remembered something he had heard in his previous life. In the previous life, people from Huairen Medicine Hall often pretended to be people from other medicine shops to intercept the medicinal materials of other colleagues. Zhou Wei''s eyes lit up. Unexpectedly, Huairen Medicine Hall was behind this. He did not doubt Song Jin''s words at all. Song Jin clearly asked him to investigate, and he had already convicted Huairen Medicine Hall. He immediately told Song Jin, and Zhou Wei left happily. Song Jin was grateful to God for the first time for letting her live another life. Let her have the opportunity to save Zhou Wei, so that such a fresh life will not die early. Jin Ling just brought over a bowl of cold drinks. "Hey, where is the person? Why is he missing?" "Going to do errands again." Song Jin replied with a smile, then turned to look at another young man standing not far away. Wearing a half-worn gown, washed white but clean. His hair was neatly combed and his nails were trimmed cleanly. Just like him, his whole body gave people a very clean and peaceful feeling. This person''s presence is somewhat low. As long as there were a few more people, it wouldn''t be easy for anyone to notice him. Jin Ling also saw him like this. "Xing Lun is back, and he just happened to drink this water." "Thank you Aunt Jin." Xing Lun politely took the bowl and stood aside quietly, drinking water one by one without making any sound. To outsiders, he is ordinary and ordinary. Song Jin knew that Xing Lun was very capable. He is particularly talented in business. As the saying goes, there is no business without treachery. Xing Lun is particularly good at this. He has a very accurate grasp of people''s hearts and can play all kinds of conspiracies clearly. In his previous life, he was Song Jin''s right-hand man and the person in charge on the surface. The only bad thing is that this guy offended Yuelao. The first wife turned out to be a trick arranged by a business rival. The second wife turned out to be a stone girl. In the third term, when he went to other places to discuss business, he took the money and eloped with his sweetheart. Then, he refused to marry again! His mother, Yinlong, was so worried that her hair turned a few gray... (End of chapter) Chapter 19 The fight started Chapter 19 The fight started Song Jin used to let Jin Ling be the shopkeeper. Jin Lings husband and son are responsible for training herbal farmers, learning to identify and plant herbs. Yinlong originally knew pharmacology. Responsible for picking up medicinal materials and doing simple processing. The top-quality medicines are sent to Song''s Pharmacy. For ordinary medicines, they are concocted by themselves, and then the finished medicines are sold in stores at low prices. For example, anthelmintics and hemostatic powder. Xing Lun will come over today. It was Song Jin who had sent people to the medicine farmer''s house to deliver holiday gifts before, but there was a temporary shortage of manpower, so he came to the shop to help temporarily. Song Jin waited for Xing Lun to finish drinking the water, and then said: "You will work with me from now on." "ah?" Xing Lun was surprised. When he saw Song Jin''s calm face and serious expression, Xing Lun finally realized that he had heard correctly, and quickly stood up and saluted Song Jin, "Thank you for your attention, my employer. Xing Lun will do his best to serve you." "good." Song Jin added, "I took a big order, and the other party said that the negotiation and transaction will be based on the market price. From now on, you will be responsible for everything. Ask Aunt Ling about the specific details." "Well, isn''t this usually done by Aunt Jin?" Xing Lun was worried that the Jin family would think too much. Song Jin smiled and said nonchalantly: "Don''t worry. Jifang Pharmacy will not stop at Huizhou Prefecture." When Xing Lun heard this, his eyes flashed brightly, "Master, I will definitely do a good job." "Looking forward to your performance." Song Jin then did some more things. When she moved to the county seat, she could start studying the ancestral pharmacopoeia. Shun''an Bookstore sent a list of types of medicinal materials. As long as they were on the list, they were told to have as many as they needed. The specific price of medicinal materials has not yet been negotiated. Jin Ling is not good at negotiating business with people. The bookstore owner has made me a little anxious these past two days. Now when Song Jin said that Xing Lun would take over, Jin Ling quickly explained the matter to him in detail, and Xing Lun listened carefully. Song Jin sat aside quietly. Holding the tea bowl, he looked at the two of them slightly lost in thought. Qin Chi saw the store door ajar, slowly opened it and saw the scene in front of him. There was a man and a woman talking in front of the counter. Song Jin was not wearing a hat, and was sitting alone at the tea table, looking at the two of them as if in a trance. Maybe looking at that man alone? The man was wearing old clothes. He had an ordinary appearance and average height, but he had a slightly better temperament. Far inferior to Qin Chi! "Madam, I''ve finished my work here, is it time to go?" Qin Chi called Song Jin with a slight smile without any strange expression on his face. Song Jin finally came back to his senses, smiled slightly and asked, "How did your husband know that I am here?" This time out, it was just like last time. When we arrived at the county seat, everyone was busy with their own affairs. Song Jin came to Jifang Pharmacy, but still didn''t tell Qin Chiming. And he came directly to her, and he couldn''t tolerate her not thinking too much. Qin Chi said casually: "I came here from the shops on the street, one by one. I was the only one who didn''t find this shop. I saw the door was ajar and pushed it open." Song Jin couldn''t refute this. She came to East Street to buy something as an excuse. No matter how you walk, you should be on East Street. Qin Chi went from shop to shop, and there really wasn''t anything wrong with him, but it just felt like he was being too patient. Seeing that the defensiveness in Song Jin''s eyes faded, Qin Chi was as confident as a mountain in talking nonsense. On the other hand, Xing Lun, who was talking to Jin Ling just now, slowly turned around and looked at Qin Chi without any trace. It was this man who was lucky enough to marry his boss... Qin Chi''s waist was straight at this moment, and his posture was particularly tall and straight. His aura was revealed unconsciously, like a dormant beast suddenly showing its sharp fangs. He picked up the power fence on the table and put it on Song Jin naturally. When he was about to leave, Song Jin looked at Jin Ling at the counter and said, "Shopkeeper, are my medicines ready?" Jin Ling understood. He took several finished medicines, wrapped them up, and handed them to Song Jin. Song Jin put down a piece of broken silver and walked out of the drug store with Qin Chi. Xing Lun walked to the door, watched the two people drifting away, lowered his eyebrows and asked softly: "Aunt Jin, was the boss guarding against that man just now?" "Don''t ask about Master''s affairs." Jin Ling will regard Song Jin as his master for the rest of his life, no matter whether there is a contract of betrayal or not, "unless you don''t want to work for the master." Xing Lun responded in a low voice. Qin Chi took Song Jin to a residential house. White walls, dark tiles, horse head walls, and hanging lattice windows in the cloister are the characteristics of Huizhou architecture. Entering the door is the verandah, followed by the patio, opposite is the verandah, and on the right is the hall. On both sides of the hall are wing rooms. It''s just a small house that you enter. It must have been recently renovated. The house is fully furnished and very clean. It is impossible to live with a large family, but two people are enough. Song Jin had a vague suspicion in his heart. Sure enough, Qin Chi said: "Didn''t my wife say last time that she wanted to come and take care of me? So I bought this house, not far from Tachuan Academy. What do you think?" "Very good." Song Jin responded. "I think it''s good too." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! If the house is not big, there will be no clutter of people living in it. The two of them lived a peaceful life. Song Jin was sure that Qin Chi would take her with him when he returned to the academy. This news made her extremely happy. Qinjiagou is suitable for living away from the world, but it is not convenient for her to get in and out, which is not conducive to her activities. This good mood lasted until Song Jin returned to Qinjiagou. When Qin Chi was in the hall, he publicly announced that he would take Song Jin to move to the county seat. Boss Qin and Mrs. Li haven''t said anything yet. Song Xiu immediately jumped out to object! "I don''t agree!" Song Xiu stood up abruptly. During the few days when Qin Mingsong was away, Song Xiu loved to go to Song Jin to show her presence. Even though Song Jin always ignored her, it still gave her a secret sense of superiority. How could it be possible to let Song Jin go to the county town to live a good life? "Song Xiu, there are still a few elders here. When will it be your turn to make the decision for us?" Song Jin said in a cool voice. Song Xiu immediately realized his gaffe, and immediately said aggrievedly: "Sister, Xiu''er is just worried about you." "Do you believe this yourself?" Song Jin turned to ask Song Xiu. Song Xiu was speechless when asked. "Song Xiu is right, no one is allowed to move to the city!" Old Liu wanted to jump out and object before, but Song Xiu took the lead. Seeing that Song Xiu couldn''t do anything, she had no choice but to go into battle in person. Song Jin must not be allowed to move out! Song Xiu''s dowry was one thousand taels. So, there are only a lot more Song Jin. Before she gets Song Jin''s money, Song Jin is not allowed to go anywhere! "Daughter-in-law, there is no place for you to live at home, and we still don''t give you food? Dalang goes to study and spends most of his time in the academy. What are you doing as a woman in the city? You don''t have to pay for food and drink? You are a restless bitch. Pizi, do you want to go out and raise a man secretly..." Old Liu scolded him. Its just that the more you say it later, the harder it sounds. Suddenly, Old Qin stood up, picked up a stool and threw it at Old Liu. Old Liu was so frightened that he ducked and was hit on the shoulder. "Ah..." he screamed in pain! Now the three brothers of the Qin family could no longer pretend they hadn''t seen him, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop Old Qin and protect Old Liu. "Dad! Calm down, calm down!" "Go away and let me beat this old guy to death! The whole family is uneasy because of her..." At the first moment, Qin Chi pulled Song Jin aside. Mrs. Li and Mrs. Liu also hurriedly exited the main hall door, watching with lingering fear the furious manner in which Old Qin beat people. The only reason to blame is that Mr. Liu has such a bad mouth! Dare to arrange anything! Xiao Liu came close to Mrs. Li''s ear and whispered: "The Song family pestered Dalang to go to town as soon as they entered the house. This seems uneasy. Sister-in-law, please pay more attention." The expression on Mrs. Li''s face calmed down, "Second brother and sister, you can''t say this nonsense. It was my decision to let her go to the town with Da Lang to stay for a while." "What are you..." Xiao Liu was doubtful. Mrs. Li added: "We are a young couple. If we don''t live together, how can my grandson come?" Hearing this, Xiao Liu suddenly realized. This is what Li said. In fact, Li was not talking nonsense. At first, she did not approve of Song Jin going to the town, for fear that she would disturb Qin Chi''s study. It was Qin Chi who caught Li''s desire to have a grandson and persuaded Li. He also promised that as long as Song Jin When Jin became pregnant, she came back to raise the baby. As for when she will get pregnant, that is unknown, just like drawing a pie, it depends on whether people believe it or not. PS: Family members, please vote, thank you~ (End of chapter) Chapter 20 For the first time, Qin Chi suffered fro Chapter 20 Qin Chi suffers from insomnia for the first time Song Jin watched with cold eyes. Old Man Qin made a fierce fuss, and the one that really hit Old Liu was the first one, and the rest were stopped by the three children. Old Mrs. Liu was so frightened that her face turned pale. He hid behind Boss Qin and shrank his head, no longer as arrogant as he had just scolded Song Jin. When Old Man Qin beat someone, he was actually beating him to show Song Jin. "Madam, is this old man afraid of you?" Qin Chi said in a slight voice. Song Jin turned to look at Qin Chi in surprise. And his eyes were slightly narrowed, looking at the chaos in the main room, as if he was examining something. Now that he said that, Song Jin lightly raised his lips and said, "He is not afraid of me, but he is afraid of the people who may exist behind me." Song Jin had already figured this out. But I have to say that Old Man Qin''s fear is not wrong. As Qin Chi commented, Old Qin has a fair vision and is also a rational and practical person. Qin Chi was intrigued, "Who is behind the lady?" "My family is gone, but I still have a few poor relatives." Song Jin seemed to have answered Qin Chi''s words, but seemed to have said nothing. Qin Chi had known about Song Jin''s origins and understood it immediately. The old man''s fear was not without reason. The Song family was gone, but there were many married women in the three generations of the Song family. Even Song Jin''s maternal ancestors seemed to have someone in Beijing. Be an official. The final outcome of this matter was that Mr. Liu lay down in bed and pretended to be dead, Mr. Qin settled the matter, and Song Jin generously forgave him. Since Old Man Qin knows what''s interesting, Song Jin always wants to give him something sweet. That night, Song Jin said to Qin Chi: "My lord, Qinjiagou is suitable for growing medicinal materials. It is like the hillside south of the village. It has sandy loam soil, which means the soil is loose and well-ventilated. It is very suitable for planting salvia." Qin Chi''s eyes were complicated, "Where are the seeds?" "Oh, let''s work with Jifang Pharmacy. They will provide seeds and planting methods." As soon as Song Jin said these words, Qin Chi felt a sudden change in his heart. Old Man Qin''s attitude was recognized by Song Jin. He didn''t mind giving a sweet date to the slave of a wealthy family for his meritorious service. The master would reward him with some silver. Qin Chi went out to talk to Old Man Qin. Old Qin''s depressed mood was swept away, and he immediately asked his three sons to come over for discussion. Early the next morning, Old Man Qin went to Village Chief Chen with his money and proposed to buy the hillside in the south of the village. The hillside had been abandoned for who knows how many years. No one would take it if it was given to the villagers, but Old Man Qin spent money to buy it. Village Chief Chen looked at him like a big fool and gave him some good advice. When Old Man Qin insisted, he took the money and signed the contract. Go to the county government office to complete the procedures that day. Village Chief Chen came out in the Qin family''s carriage and naturally wanted to go back together, but old man Qin took his son to the Jifang Pharmacy first. When he heard Old Man Qin mention Song Jin, Shopkeeper Jin immediately called Father Zhou to come and talk in detail with Old Man Qin and others. Village Chief Chen finally knew what Old Qin was doing when he bought Nanshanshan. He secretly cursed the old fox for his wide connections and actually found a way to Jifang Pharmacy. Jifang Drug Store has a poor reputation in the county. Among the poor people in Yixian County, there are some famous ones, especially Jifang Pharmacy, which teaches people how to pick medicines and has benefited many people. There seems to be no threshold, but it is not that easy to become a pharmacist under the name of Jifang Pharmacy. Father Zhou patiently said: "The planting time of salvia is divided into spring and autumn. We have planted it in spring this year, but it is just in time for autumn planting. Your family should clear up wasteland first and prepare the land." Let me tell Mr. Qin again in detail. Boss Qin and the others have all farmed, but the harvest is too small. After a year of hard work, it is not enough to pay the family taxes. Wait until they are done talking. Village Chief Chen asked anxiously: "Manager Zhou, I am Chen Dashu, the village chief of Qinjiagou. I, I want to ask, can other people in the village plant?" "Anyone with land will do." Among the people Father Zhou has come into contact with over the years, there are many who have ideas but few who actually take action. One is that there is no land. Second, there is no planting experience. Most people are afraid to try. Because there is no planting experience, even the seeds may not germinate. The next day, the Zhou family father and son came to Qinjiagou in person to inspect and give instructions to Old Man Qin and others on how to cultivate the medicinal fields. During this period, Village Chief Chen brought several villagers to inquire. The person who answered their questions was Zhou Wei. Zhou Wei looked at the three of them, "Are you the herb collectors at Huairen Medicine Hall?" "Little steward Zhou has a very good eye." One of the old farmers smiled bitterly, "It''s difficult to make a living just by collecting herbs." Huairen Medicine Hall changed its shopkeeper this year. The price has been lowered since the beginning of the year, and it is getting lower every time. I want to switch to another drugstore to sell it, but other drugstores will not accept it. Saying that would break the rules of this industry. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Zhou Wei was caught stealing medicinal materials last time. After investigation, it was indeed Huairen Medicine Hall who did it. He wanted to put a sack on the man, but Xing Lun stopped him, saying that doing so would cause trouble for his employer. Then Xing Lun took action and spread the news about what Huairen Medicine Hall had done. It didnt take long for several companies to come to Huairen Medicine Hall. Because it was Huairen Medicine Hall who broke the rules first. Now the shopkeeper is very worried. Being squeezed out by people in this industry, I''m afraid Huairen Medicine Hall will be closed down soon. Zhou Wei said generously: "From now on, you will learn to plant from us." Several villagers cried with joy and expressed their gratitude to Zhou Wei. Zhou Wei agreed so readily, which had something to do with Song Jin. The owner has married over, and Qinjiagou will be the owners territory from now on. Rounding it all off, its my own family, and if you can pull it off, its a big deal. If Song Jin knew Zhou Wei''s thoughts, he would definitely be speechless. In his previous life, Zhou Wei died early, and Song Jin only knew that he was a cheerful person, but the details are unclear. Now Song Jin has moved to the county seat. Since Qin Chi had already made arrangements, he settled in on the same day. One person lives in a wing room. Qin Chi moved into the west wing first, and Song Jin naturally moved into the east wing. On the east verandah, there is a kitchen. In addition, Qin Chi said that he hired Mrs. Huang next door to do housework, including laundry and cooking. Originally Song Jin said that he would take care of Qin Chi. The reality is that Qin Chi has arranged everything properly, and really complied with the words of the old Liu family and Song Xiu, and Song Jin came to the county to enjoy the blessings. You can stretch out your hands with clothes and open your mouth with food. Song Jin only found out today that the layout of this house is the same as that of the house next door. It was originally supposed to be a two-entry house, but it was later divided into two. Now, two families lived there. Song Jin was eating the food cooked by Mrs. Huang, "Ms. sir, are the people next door reliable?" "Reliable and honest people." Qin Chi took a sip of the soup, swallowed it slowly and said, "Mr. Huang''s wife drives a mule cart, and people usually ask him to transport goods or give people a ride. If you want to go out in the future, you can go find him." "Oh, okay." That''s really convenient. As the moonlight grew darker, Qin Chi returned to the west wing. Looking around the bedroom, Qin Chi felt that the room was too cold for some reason. Qin Chi walked to the door again and saw that Song Jin''s door was closed, so he closed the door again. First night here. Qin Chi suffered from insomnia for the first time. Chapter 21 where is my wife Chapter 21 Where is my wife? The next day, the sun was soft in the early morning, and it fell warmly on people. Qin Chi woke up a little later than usual. Stepping out of the west wing, he walked around the patio. The door to the east wing is closed. That graceful figure was nowhere to be seen in the hall. It seemed that she had just arrived in a new environment and she was not the only one who was not used to it. Qin Chi sat in the hall. Mrs. Huang came over and asked if she wanted to serve breakfast. Qin Chi nodded. After a while, Mrs. Huang brought breakfast to the table. "Why are there only dishes and chopsticks for one person?" Qin Chi looked at Granny Huang with a sharp look. Mrs. Huang quickly knelt down and reported in a trembling voice: "Sir, my wife went out early and took Old Li Tou''s mule cart, saying she was going to East Street." Qin Chi picked up the chopsticks with a cold expression and started eating. "Get up and tell me this kind of thing earlier in the future." "Yes, please keep this in mind." Mrs. Huang and others were slaves bought by Qin Chi. If Qin Chi was in the county, they would take care of him. Wait for Qin Chi to go out. There was already a carriage waiting outside. Qin Chi first went to Shun''an Bookstore. The shopkeeper welcomed him into the inner room. "How is the investigation of the Song family''s whereabouts?" Qin Chi asked as he sat down. The shopkeeper wiped his hands with cold sweat. "Sir, no clues about the Song family were found. As soon as Lao Huo found the Zhu family''s cargo ship, he was chased and killed. He was stabbed several times. He is currently recovering from his injuries at a business in Tunxi. Doctor Jing said he would be bedridden for half a month..." The shopkeeper shed a cold sweat for Lao Huo because of the danger involved. Who would have thought that what was originally a simple investigation would almost cost him his life. The shopkeeper took out another file from the darkroom. "Prefect Yang ordered the arrest of the Song family, and then closed the door to thank guests." He handed the investigation information to Qin Chi. Qin Chi asked while flipping through the pages: "Where did the people who were chasing Lao Huo come from?" "There are six people in total, wearing evil ghost masks and using uniform ring-head swords. Lao Huo said that the moves of those people are like death warriors trained by a big family." It didn''t take long for Qin Chi to finish reading. The above is a detailed list of the whereabouts and trivial matters of the prefect Yang Lingyu for half a month before the Song family was convicted. All Magistrate Yang saw were colleagues. I go to the Yamen every day and go to the Yamen at the appointed time. No abnormalities were seen for half a month. "According to the investigation, on the day the Song family was arrested, a cabinet document was delivered to the government office. Magistrate Yang immediately dispatched men to arrest them as soon as dark. The next day, a fire broke out in the government archives, and the official documents were burned..." The shopkeeper told what he found out from the investigation. Qin Chi read through the investigation about Magistrate Yang again. Finally, his eyes fixed on one place. Three days before the accident happened to the Song family, Magistrate Yang received a letter from his family from Beijing. Qin Chi said thoughtfully: "Is Magistrate Yang Yang Zhengkai''s nephew?" "Yes, Yang Ge is always his uncle." Mr. Yang Ge is Yang Zhengkai, a cabinet minister, a bachelor of Dongge University and the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He is a third-rank official and holds real power. He has always been an upright person and does not collude with treacherous people. Qin Chi was thoughtful after hearing this. Yang Zhengkai holds a high position, so is it necessary to target a Huizhou merchant family far away from the capital? The Song family is famous in Huizhou Prefecture. Its really not ranked nationwide. If Qin Chi hadn''t investigated the Song family inside and out in order to cooperate with the Song family, he would really have suspected that the Song family was backed by some force. But the Song family did rely on the skill of preparing medicinal materials to establish a foothold in Huizhou Prefecture for a hundred years. It is a famous kind house in Huizhou. Now we are waiting for the investigation from the northwest. It''s only a matter of time to find out who is causing the trouble, but it may not be easy to find the whereabouts of the Song family. Qin Chi deduced based on the existing clues. The person behind the scenes took the Song family to Tunxi, most likely to use the waterway to hide their whereabouts. If the cargo ship carrying people went to Jiujiang Prefecture, it could still be traced; if it passed through Shaoxing Prefecture and then entered Hangzhou and then entered the East China Sea, it would be extremely difficult to trace it. But there''s no point in rushing now. Just at this moment, someone outside asked to see the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper went out for a while and came back in a hurry. "Sir, there is an urgent message coming from Hangzhou." Qin Chi took the secret letter from the shopkeeper. It''s just a small piece of paper with densely written small words on it. After reading it, Qin Chi put down the note and said, "Shopkeeper Tao, do you know where my wife is?" "Madam is at Jifang Pharmacy." After moving from Song Jin to the county seat, his whereabouts were under their noses. The backyard of Jifang Pharmacy. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! In the courtyard are rows and rows of wooden shelves, divided into upper and lower floors, each filled with bamboo dustpans. Various medicinal materials are drying on the dustpan. In the well next to it, there are several people washing the medicinal materials. After washing, they have to select and divide the medicinal materials into three grades: upper, middle and lower. In the innermost room. Song Jin asked Xing Lunzheng to make it. There are brand-new tools in the room, such as steamers, woks, forging pots, mortars, rollers and baskets, medicine knives, grinding grooves, etc. "My boss, I''ve brought you the newly dried loquat leaves." Two medicine boys lifted a large basket. It is full of dried loquat leaves cut into shreds. After Song Jin checked it, he asked them to put it down if there was no problem. Most of the loquat leaves sold in the market are freshly picked leaves, with impurities and fluff removed, sprayed with water to soften them, cut into shreds, dried and then used as medicine. The loquat leaves sold by Song''s are different, they are processed through honey roasting method. The loquat leaves after being roasted with honey can enhance the effect of moistening the lungs and relieving coughs. This is why outsiders say that Song''s medicinal materials are good. There is not only one method of roasting loquat leaves recorded in the "Song Pharmacopoeia", but also licorice scalding, crisp roasting, fire roasting, **** juice roasting and jujube juice methods. In the previous life, Song Jin mainly studied the honey roasting method. This time, this is what I will use. Now she needs to make money. Xing Lun came over and asked, "Did my boss roast the loquat leaves himself?" "Yes, does your mother still have honey to refine?" Refined honey is refined honey. During the refining process, impurities will be removed, part of the water will evaporate, kill microorganisms inside, and enhance adhesion. The big honey pills in traditional Chinese medicine are made from refined honey. Xing Lun''s mother Yinlong often makes honey pills and sells them in the store, so she has ready-made honey there. Just as Xing Lun was about to go out, Jin Ling came in a hurry. "Little miss, Shopkeeper Tao sent someone to send a message that their boss is at the bookstore and wants to meet you." "Oh, I''ll be there right away." Song Jin thought that the person who made the appointment might have found clues. Jin Ling said, "Ask Xing Lun to accompany you. He is familiar with Shopkeeper Tao." "Master, let the medicine boy go get the refined honey, and I''ll accompany you to Shun''an Bookstore." Xing Lun and Jin Ling were mainly worried. Song Jin thought for a while and nodded. It''s better to have Xing Lun follow than Aunt Ling, because you can help her if anything happens. So I touched it for about a quarter of an hour. Its the same tearoom where I last had a guest. Across the screen, Qin Chi vaguely saw Song Jin walking in, wearing a power hat, a woman''s bun, and a simple cotton dress. The figure is shadowy and hazy. This scene is inexplicably eye-catching to him, what''s going on? (End of chapter) Chapter 22 Who is Madam coming with today? Chapter 22 Who is Madam here with today? Shopkeeper Tao kept the door ajar. Then go farther away from Xing Lun to avoid hearing what the people in the house are saying. But, still stay here. Xing Lun stood at the entrance of the corridor, looking quietly at the door of the tea room. Shopkeeper Tao doesn''t want to see Xing Lun right now. He hasn''t signed the contract to purchase medicinal materials with Jifang Pharmacy yet, mainly because he can''t reach an agreement. The bad thing is that the young master said that he would buy it at market price. Xing Lun insists on the current market price. Shopkeeper Tao would only give the original market price. Everyone has their own opinions, and no one wants to give in. "I say, Mr. Xing, the price you are asking for is really unacceptable. This business is for a long time, and the quantity required is large, so it is not a one-time deal." Shopkeeper Tao''s recent outburst was all attributed to Xing Lun. Xing Lun said calmly: "It''s easy to give your price." "You can''t stop doing our business. This is an agreement between your boss and our boss. You can''t mess up the matter because you are young and energetic." "The deal was agreed upon, but the time was not specified." If this batch of high-quality medicinal materials were prepared by his employer, Xing Lun would have no worries about not being able to sell the medicinal materials. Jifang Pharmacy recently received a batch of medicinal materials, but it was not a large quantity. Rather than selling it to the bookstore owner, Xing Lun prefers to sell it secretly on the market. Xing Lun then said leisurely: "Shopkeeper Tao, you are also a businessman and you should understand a truth. For example, you can make seven or eight hundred taels from a batch of goods, but someone asks you to sell them at a low price and only make one hundred taels. Two, are you willing?" Of course not! Who would want to do such a stupid thing? The truth is this, but Shopkeeper Tao doesn''t want to give up, "What if I say that your boss and my boss have other transactions behind them? This deal is just a tack on it." Xing Lun finally looked sideways at Shopkeeper Tao. As if assessing whether he was lying. His quiet and unruffled look always made Shopkeeper Tao angry for no reason. After a moment of silence, Xing Luncai said: "Then we can talk about it after I ask my boss for permission." Two people were talking outside. The two people in the tea room were also very quiet. Song Jin had just finished reading the investigation information. Regarding Yang Lingyu, the prefect of Huizhou, and Lao Huo found out that the Song family might have boarded the Zhu family''s cargo ship. If that''s the case, that''s not good news. "The Zhu family are merchants from Shanxi and have three fleets at sea..." Song Jin knew that merchants from Shanxi and Guangdong had set up merchant ships to drift across the sea and do business in many overseas countries. The Zhu family is one of them. If the family got on the Zhu family''s boat, would they be able to find it back? Seeing her immersed in grief, Qin Chi couldn''t bear to tell her the news he had just received from Hangzhou, "It''s better to find out than nothing. As long as we find a way to get the Zhu family to talk, we won''t be afraid of finding no one. " I''m just afraid that the Zhu family is just a cover-up. Then Qin Chi lowered his voice and said: "Ms. Song, there is bad news from Hangzhou today. Do you want to hear it?" "What is it?" Song Jin''s heart trembled slightly. "The cargo ship suspected to be carrying the Song family has entered the East China Sea without a trace." It usually takes seven or eight days for a cargo ship to go from Tunxi Pier to Hangzhou. If a full cabin of cargo is loaded, the journey will be delayed by a day or two. Qin Chi brought Song Jin to the county seat. At that time, it had only been five days since the incident occurred in the Song family. Qin Chi knew that the Song family was missing in Tunxi, and based on his inference, he used special channels to summon his subordinates who went to Hangzhou and asked them to track down the suspicious cargo ship. Unexpectedly, there was a real harvest, and the spies focused on the Zhu family''s cargo ship. But the Zhu family''s cargo ship never docked. On the river near the East China Sea, the Zhu family cargo ship and a strange ship completed the cargo transfer in the middle of the river. The spies only saw nearly a hundred large wooden boxes from a distance, being transported from the Zhu family''s cargo ship to the big ship. Then the big ship headed towards the East China Sea. The spies secretly pursued him for two days. The ship was heavily guarded and spies could not find a chance to get close. I just followed behind and salvaged some garbage from the water on the river. I really found a clue from it. There was a woman''s dress that was badly damaged. Qin Chi''s voice came from the other side of the screen, "There seems to be blood stains on the dress. The style, embroidery and style are from Huizhou Prefecture. When they are sent from Hangzhou, you can come and identify them." "good" The power barrier covered the moisture in Song Jin''s eyes. Qin Chi suddenly asked: "Does the Song family have any grudge against any powerful family?" "Probably not." Song Jin thought of the forces behind Magistrate Yang. Then he thought about the cabinet document he received that day, but it was so coincidental that it was burned. "You want to ask me if the Song family has enmity with the Yang family?" Judging from the current investigation, the most likely person to plot against the Song family is the Yang family in Beijing. The man on the other side of the screen was silent. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin hesitated a little, "My father once said that there are noble people who covet my family''s ancestral craftsmanship." Qin Chi suddenly sat up straight. If this is really the reason, then it makes sense that the people behind the scenes tried their best to take away the Song family! The only thing about the Song family that is worth coveting is the Song family''s skill in preparing medicinal materials. No, once you catch it, you catch a whole nest. No, its a clan! Qin Chi comforted: "So, the Song family is safe for the time being. As long as they don''t resist..." Not resisting? Song Jin thought of his ancestors'' instructions. Song Jin couldn''t stop trembling when he thought of his father''s determination to leave the "Song Pharmacopoeia" to him, as well as the **** clothes salvaged from the river. Qin Chi saw that Song Jin remained silent. "I almost forgot to mention that I sent a summons to the northwest to ask someone to help investigate. We will know what the Song family''s crime is. However, the northwest is too far from Huizhou, so it will take some time for the news to come through." "I can afford to wait." I have been waiting all my life in my previous life. What''s more, it''s only for a month or two? We talked for another half moment. Before Song Jin left, he saluted the screen. Don''t think that it is easy to investigate this information. In the previous life, Song Jin spent his whole life not investigating it. This shows how powerful the person behind the screen is. It must not be as simple as a businessman. This gift was her thanks to him. Qin Chi did not stop Song Jin''s gift and accepted it calmly. He was currently doing a loss-making business, and investigation revealed that it consumed a lot of manpower and financial resources. Song Jin strode out of the tea room. Xing Lun saw him outside and immediately went to greet him. "Master!" Qin Chi just stood up from the screen. Suddenly I heard a strange man''s voice coming from outside the door, and then heard my wife reply: "Well, it''s okay. Let''s go back first." Then, there was the sound of the two people''s footsteps gradually walking away. The smile on Qin Chi''s lips stopped slightly, and he stood there for a long time without taking a step forward. Shopkeeper Tao entered the tea room with gentle steps. Seeing that there was no movement on the other side of the screen, he shouted tentatively: "Master?" "Who is coming with Madam today?" Qin Chi didn''t understand what was causing the irritation in his heart, but his long-term calmness made his expression no different from before. Shopkeeper Tao lowered his head and replied: "Reporting to the young master, I am the manager of Jifang Pharmacy. My surname is Xing and Ming Lun." "Oh, from Jifang Pharmacy..." ps: Family members, please vote. (End of chapter) Chapter 23 honey loquat leaves Chapter 23 Honey Loquat Leaves "My boss, Shopkeeper Tao said that the medicinal materials business is just a supplement. He said that you have other transactions with their boss and asked me to sell the medicinal materials to them at a low price." Xing Lun followed Song Jin out of the bookstore and stated in a calm tone. Song Jin''s mind had not yet calmed down, but when he heard Xing Lun''s words, he asked doubtfully: "Didn''t you say according to the market price?" "I want the current market price, but they only want to give me the original market price." Xing Lun told Song Jin exactly what happened, including his inner thoughts. Song Jin suddenly realized. Taking into account the profits, you can indeed take the opportunity to earn some initial funds. At that time, she said the market price because she was dissatisfied with the man''s big appetite and his desire to get more and more, so she wanted to embarrass the other person, but she did not really want to sell it to the other person at the inflated current market price. That would not be a good relationship, but a grudge. The base price in her mind is the original market price. The price is higher than the price sold by the Song family in the past. In the past, the Song family sold it to other merchants for a profit that was 30% lower than the market price. "Then the two companies will cooperate first, and the net profit will be 50/50. However, let the people from Shun''an handle the external sales of medicinal materials. We will discuss it after the market price outside stabilizes." Xing Lun''s eyes lit up. Can we still cooperate like this? The emergence of a large number of Song''s medicinal materials on the market will definitely attract the attention of peers, and there will be many things to come. Leave the trouble to Shun''an and let them bear the risk, while Jifang only needs to stay behind the scenes and make money safely. Although half of the net profit is divided,... Wonderful! Xing Lun was very convinced of Song Jin. When he came out of the bookstore, Xing Lun was still worried that Song Jin would sell the medicinal materials to Shun''an at the original price. If he did, he would be disappointed. A calm and self-possessed boss with a clear distinction between public and private matters is far better than a boss who wastes money and is not good at management. In fact, in Song Jin''s heart, the reward she paid for the earlier transaction with Shun An''s family was enough. If Song Jin repeatedly gave in, others would look down upon her and think she was weak and could be bullied, and that she was taken advantage of. This is not conducive to future cooperation. Song Jin praised: "Xing Lun, you did a good job this time. My father said that the way to do business is: first, keep your word, second, be honest, and third, make profits. A gentleman loves money and gets it wisely. We do not take ill-gotten gains, but we do not have to give in to what is ours. " Xing Lun''s eyes sparkled when he heard this. Then, he decided to make an appointment with Shopkeeper Tao. Song Jin returned to the processing room. Inside, I saw a woman waiting. "Little miss!" When Yinlong saw Song Jin, she got excited and knelt down. She choked slightly and said, "Yinlong has met the young lady." The first two times Song Jin came to the shop, Yinlong went to the countryside to collect medicine. Unfortunately, he missed it. This time the little medicine boy went to her to make honey. In Jifang Medicine Shop, there was a pharmaceutical room that belonged to Yinlong. Yinlong wanted to see Song Jin, so he personally delivered the refined honey. "Aunt Long, please get up quickly." Song Jin hurriedly went to help people. The two of them chatted for a while and talked about themselves for a while. While talking, Song Jin was also preparing to roast the loquats, and Yinlong took the initiative to help. Yinlong is very familiar with these tasks. Song Jin didn''t mean to avoid her and checked the refined honey that was delivered. There is little distinction between refined honey outside. Song''s Pharmacopoeia is different. According to the degree of refining of refined honey, it is divided into tender honey, medium honey and old honey. Refined honey must also be selected according to the properties of medicinal materials. For example, when the viscosity of medicinal materials is strong, young honey should be used; when the viscosity is moderate, medium honey should be used; when the viscosity is poor, old honey should be used. Want to prepare honey loquat leaves. Judging from the depth of the color, Yinlong sent Lao Mi this time. The weight ratio of refined honey to medicinal materials is four to one, which means that for one hundred kilograms of loquat leaves, twenty-five kilograms of refined honey will be used. Song Jinzhao is ready in proportion. Yinlong went outside and brought half a bucket of cold water. Song Jin then took out the refined honey and diluted it with an appropriate amount of boiling water, added dried loquat slices and mixed well. When it is stuffy, place it in a wok. Yinlong makes a fire. Fry the loquat leaves over low heat. Song Jin stood by the stove, holding the spatula in his right hand, and skillfully stir-fried again and again, reaching the bottom of the pot every time, trying to mix the dried loquat and refined honey as evenly as possible. This step is especially important. Yinlong didn''t know what she thought of, and her eyes were filled with tears, "Little miss, you have suffered!" "ah?" Song Jin was confused for a moment, "What''s wrong with Aunt Long?" From Song Jin''s skillful movements, Yinlong thought that she had learned many times in places where no one could see her. In order to support Jifang Pharmacy. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! For people like them, it is really difficult for the young lady to practice roasting medicinal materials silently. Yinlong was very moved and felt sorry for Song Jin. You have to go through so much at a young age. "You have been working for so long. You must be tired, young lady. Let me come." Yinlong stood up and grabbed Song Jin''s spatula. She was already skilled at these tasks, "Please watch the fire for me." "good." Song Jin did not compete with Yinlong. It would be exhausting for her to do all these tasks alone. The method of roasting loquat leaves is not very complicated. Yinlong said solemnly: "You did not avoid me when you roasted the medicinal materials. I can swear to God that I will not leak what I saw today, otherwise I will be struck by lightning and not end well. I-" "Aunt Long!" Song Jin interrupted her. Silently, Song Jin stuffed a piece of firewood into the stove, and then said: "I will revive the family in the future. I cannot do it by myself no matter what." "I will follow my master to the death." When Yinlong got excited, he put down the spatula and knelt down in front of Song Jin. Song Jin hurriedly picked up the pot and stir-fried, funny and angry, "Aunt Long, I understand, get up! We are still working." "Ah, it''s my fault that I forgot about this and almost spoiled a pot of medicinal ingredients." Yinlong was very upset. Song Jin then continued to stir-fry. Seeing that the loquat leaves were slightly yellow after being fried, Song Jin would reach into the pot and pick up a piece from time to time to see if it was sticky to his hands. Fry until slightly brown and not sticky. "Aunt Long, you can turn off the engine." Song Jin stir-fried for a while, then put down the spatula, "Let the dried loquats stay in the pot to simmer for half a moment, then put them on the medicine rack to cool before putting them in storage." "Let me do this job." Yinlong rushed to work and was unwilling to let Song Jin suffer. Song Jin was sweating profusely now, and the hair on her forehead was soaked with sweat, but she didn''t care. That is to say, Yinlong thinks she is tired. She had done a lot of this kind of work in her previous life. At this time, Song Jin didn''t know that Shopkeeper Tao''s expression on the other side of the bookstore was very exciting. Xing Lun came to discuss with him for the first time. Unexpectedly, he proposed cooperation. He opened his mouth and asked him to sell the medicine to them and share 30% of the profit with them. That proposed way of cooperation. Shopkeeper Tao simply couldn''t refute. Then after some intense bargaining, shopkeeper Tao negotiated a 50% profit, but asked Xing Lun to take a few books from his bookstore as a supplement. Shopkeeper Tao felt happy and went to Qin Chi with the contract. Chapter 24 Nonsense Chapter 24 Nonsense Qin Chi looked at Shopkeeper Tao with complicated eyes, "You have done a good job in this bookstore, and you will work hard in the future." Shopkeeper Tao was stunned. Why doesn''t this sound like a compliment? He was a manager of a big business, and he was asked to work as a bookstore manager in a small county? Don''t do this! "Sir, did I do something wrong? Shouldn''t I cooperate with them? But this is a business without capital. You can easily make a fortune by just finding someone to sell medicinal materials." Shopkeeper Tao thought it was worth doing. "There''s nothing wrong with bringing it out alone." Qin Chi sighed inwardly. But, did they want to cooperate with others like this in the first place? They are maximizing their profits. How long will it take for the market price to return to normal? Qin Chi''s eyes became more complicated, "Uncle Tao, what do you think I do by purchasing medicinal materials?" "Send to the northwest..." In an instant, Shopkeeper Tao came back to his senses, and then stared at Contract, "What should I do, Master?" These medicinal materials are sent to the Northwest Army. How can they set the price randomly? Jifang Pharmacy will not suffer any loss at all. From shopkeeper Tao, Qin Chi knew the process of their negotiation. He recalled that this was Xing Lun''s decision after asking Song Jin. He guessed that it was related to Song Jin without even thinking about it. Qin Chi felt a little admired in his heart. Song Jin must have been emotionally unstable when she heard the news about her family before. In this situation, she was able to make a decision that was beneficial to herself, something that ordinary women couldn''t do. Especially after guessing that they have a profound background, they did not take the initiative to please and make concessions, and then came up with a cooperation method acceptable to both parties. This is quite extraordinary in the business world. Experienced! It is worthy of being taught by a century-old Huizhou merchant family. "This cooperation cannot last long. Think of a way to sell the medicinal materials to those drug dealers at high prices, make a few quick bucks and then stop." Qin Chi put down the contract and said in a calm and unquestionable tone: "Tell Jifang that we will only cooperate with them for one month. After one month, we will purchase it at the original market price." "yes!" Shopkeeper Tao responded respectfully. Qin Chi straightened his sleeves and walked out of the bookstore calmly. As soon as he stepped out of the inner room, his aura immediately subsided. The further he walked out, the calmer his aura became. Gradually, it became almost like people coming to buy books from outside. There are some books with a weak body and a slightly pale face, like a frail scholar who has been studying without seeing the sun for a long time, or a young man who has been sick for many years. When Song Jin finished his work, he came out of the medicine shop wearing a power fence. She arrived in Lao Litou''s car in the morning, and she made an appointment for him to pick her up in the afternoon. Walk to the entrance of the alley agreed upon with Old Li Tou. The mule cart had long been parked there. Old Li Tou was holding the mule and standing aside cautiously. To Song Jin''s surprise, he unexpectedly saw Qin Chi on the mule cart. He is sitting in a relaxed posture and is resting with his eyes closed. He had obviously been sitting there for a while. "Ms. sir?" Song Jin quickly approached the mule cart and shouted in surprise. Qin Chi slowly opened his eyes. There was a gentle smile in those clear eyes. Although it was shallow, it was enough to show that he was in a good mood. "Come up." Qin Chi stretched out his big hand with clear joints towards Song Jin. Song Jin naturally placed her hand in his palm. When he held the hand that was as white as jade, Qin Chi immediately noticed the difference. Her palms were slightly red and there were blisters on them, it was obvious that she worked in a drug store. In addition, when she got closer, Qin Chi smelled the smoke of fireworks. Song Jin used the strength of his hand to get into the car. Once raw, twice cooked. There is no hint of shyness or coyness. It wasn''t the reaction a woman should have when seeing her husband, or the shyness Song Jin should have as a girl. She had been thrown into some corner in her previous life. Easily get on the mule cart. The two sat on each side, keeping a polite distance. To put it more exaggeratedly, it seems like there is a big river between them. On East Street, people were coming and going. In addition to the shops on both sides, there were also some small vendors selling goods. The mule carts swayed through it, full of the smell of human fireworks. Qin Chi''s eyes glanced at the exposed back of Song Jin''s hand several times, and there were two scratches on it that looked like red lines, "Madam, you smell a little sweet, medicinal?" "Oh, I found a job at a drug store." Song Jin thought that he would go out often in the future, so he simply made up a suitable reason, "I have five hundred coins every month. When I get my salary, I will definitely buy delicious food for my husband." "That''s really exciting." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi raised a slight smile at the corner of his mouth. It seemed like he was really looking forward to it, just because the lady said she would make money for him to buy food? No, someone told a straight lie to please him. Song Jin didn''t want to continue this topic, so he looked left and right, "Shouldn''t my husband go to the academy today? Why are people here at this hour?" "I just moved and I''m not used to sleeping." Qin Chi pretended to be sleepy when he said, "I wanted to come to the East Street Bookstore to buy some pens and ink, but I forgot to bring enough money. When I came back, I happened to see old Uncle Li waiting here. Why don''t I just take a car." " "hehe." Song Jin wants to say it for you. Before you start talking nonsense, could you please put your wallet around your waist? Are those bulging things all copper coins? "Madam, did you get up early today?" It was Qin Chi''s turn to change the subject, but in fact his lie was not very clever. Song Jin sat upright. "Yes, come out early and find a job. You can''t just sit at home and have nothing. From now on, I will make money, my husband will study, and we can live a beautiful and beautiful life, isn''t it great?" "It''s pretty good." Qin Chi smiled softly. The laughter is clear and joyful, like a jade spring in a mountain stream, extremely beautiful. So the two of them chatted with each other. You pull yours, I pull mine. There is not a single word of truth, but it is said in an extremely honest and serious manner, the kind that outsiders will definitely not doubt if they hear it. If the two of them were not so far apart in a mule cart, Old Li would almost believe it! His young master is a wonderful person, and the wife he married is also a wonderful person. Others didn''t know it, but he knew it this morning. The two of them were husband and wife, but they slept in separate rooms. Almost at the doorstep. The two people who got along well with each other suddenly changed their expressions when they saw the carriage at the door. Boss Qin was standing outside the car, and Mrs. Li was sitting in the car, as if waiting for them to come back. Song Jin and Qin Chi looked at each other and quickly got out of the car and stepped forward. "Why are parents here free?" Qin Chi didn''t expect that Boss Qin sent them here yesterday and brought Li with him today. Boss Qin smiled naively, "Your mother is worried and said she wanted to take a look." "Haha, my mother still loves me." Qin Chi winked at Song Jin without leaving any trace, "Madam, why don''t you come and help me get out of the carriage?" "I can do it myself." Li Shi pretended to do it himself. Song Jin understood this and respectfully stepped forward to help the person, "Please slow down and show your filial piety to both of us." Qin Chi took the opportunity to enter the house. He quickly arrived at the west wing and wanted to move his bedding to the east wing. As soon as he stepped out of the door, he was bumped into by Mrs. Li who came in! Chapter 25 Dont try to fool me again Chapter 25 Dont try to fool me again "Da Lang, what are you doing?" Li''s eyes fell on the quilt held by her son. Qin Chi only panicked for a moment, then calmed down again, "Mom, you must be tired from riding in the carriage. I just want to clean up the room for you to rest." "Really?" Li sneered. Did this son take her for a fool? Mrs. Li pushed away Song Jin''s hand holding her, walked quickly to the door of the west wing, and pushed the door open. "mother!" Qin Chi wanted to pull people over. Li''s beautiful eyes were filled with anger, "Get out of the way." Then she strode into the house and walked around. When you see the furnishings and daily necessities such as your sons clothes, do you still need to ask? Song Jin also knew something was wrong now. Coming to Qin Chi anxiously, Song Jin asked in a low voice: "What should we do now?" "What can I do? I can only admit my mistake quickly." Qin Chi knew his mother''s temperament. She usually had a bad temper but was actually very stubborn about what she believed in. Another thing was that she particularly hated being deceived by others. Li''s angry voice came from the room, "You two, get out of here." Qin Chi and Song Jin looked at each other. Then silently go in one after another. The person walking in front was naturally Qin Chi, who was still holding the thin quilt. Qin Chi put the quilt back on the bed, came to Li who looked angry, and admitted his mistake in a very good manner. "Mom, it''s my fault, I let you down." Qin Chi took the initiative to take the blame on himself and whispered covertly, "My son is not familiar with my wife, so I will move to the west wing by myself first." Li didn''t say anything. Just looking at Qin Chi, as if wondering whether his words were true or false. Goodbye to the silent Song Jin. Previously, Song Jin wore a power fence on her head, covering most of her body, so Li didn''t see her appearance clearly, but now... A little embarrassed? Wearing a simple dress, her hair is slightly messy, and there is no makeup on her face. The hair on her forehead is wet with sweat, especially her white hands, with small injuries clearly visible. Compared with people in Qinjiagou. Now Song Jin is like a little daughter-in-law who has been suppressed and abused by her husband. It''s only been a day since I moved here, and I''m already being bullied like this? Mrs. Li asked: "Daughter-in-law, do you still remember what I said the day after you got married?" Song Jin was stunned at first. Then she remembered that Mrs. Li didn''t say much to her that day, telling her to live a good life with her husband. If she was wronged, just tell her and she would make the decision for her. Song Jin nodded meekly, "Remember." "Then do you have anything to say?" While speaking, Mrs. Li gave her son a stern look. The look in his eyes that he had done something bad made Qin Chi baffled. Song Jin shook his head, "No." "Why not? For example, are you used to living in the county? Has anyone bullied you?" Ms. Li felt that her hint was clear enough. Song Jin never said anything bad about Qin Chi. It made Mrs. Li feel that her daughter-in-law was quite good. She was bullied by her son, but she still had the heart to cover up for him. Mrs. Li thought that since Qin Chi agreed to marry Song, he probably didn''t mind what was being planned that day. He didn''t show any abnormality at home, tricked them into moving out, started sleeping in separate rooms without anyone watching, and had to regulate the family. At this time, Mrs. Li had no doubt that Qin Chi had been wronged. Two people stand together. Who is right and who is wrong? "Qin Qian!" Li shouted angrily. Qin Chi lowered his head, lifted the hem of his clothes, and knelt down obediently. Seeing this, Song Jin quickly knelt down. Mrs. Li was originally angry with Song Jin, but when she saw her frightened look, she suddenly lost her anger. "Qin Qian, how did mother teach you before?" "Did you forget it just now?" "What is the way of husband and wife?" "The man is the sky, and the heaven is strong and self-improving. The woman is the earth, the terrain is Kun, and the virtues carry everything." "If the sky is unclear, the family will suffer; if the earth is not peaceful, the family will be ruined." "A man leads his wife to practice virtue, and a woman helps her husband become virtuous." "If the yang does not grow, the yin will not grow. The combination of yin and yang in all things can last forever..." Qin Chi was taught to lower his head. Song Jin was surprised when he heard this. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Is it true that Mr. Li, who has such a broad mind and knowledge, just studied for a few years? He cursed angrily. Li''s voice became hoarse, her expression changed slightly, and she would occasionally cover her chest and frown. "Daughter-in-law, are you tired of scolding?" Boss Qin didn''t know when he came in. He also came in with a bowl of boiled water and brought it to Li with a simple smile. "Drink water first when you are tired. Only after drinking water can you have the strength to curse." Taking advantage of Li''s break to drink water. Boss Qin kicked Qin Chi with his toes. Qin Chi understood immediately and admitted his mistake: "Mom, don''t be angry. It''s not worth it to be so angry. This time my son has realized his mistake. No matter how you punish him, he will bear it." "Is this true?" Mrs. Li handed the empty bowl to Boss Qin. Qin Chi raised his head and saw Mr. Li''s eager eyes, and felt bad for a moment. Sure enough, his hunch was correct. Li''s eyes went back and forth between Qin Chi and Song Jin, and then settled on Song Jin''s belly, "Qi''an, do you still remember the reason you used to convince me to agree to move Song Jin to the county seat?" "Remember, remember." Qin Chi answered very difficultly, "Mom, don''t talk about this in public, right?" "in public?" Li''s eyes fell on Song Jin again. On the day the two were plotted, nothing should have happened. After getting married, I didn''t notice any difference between Song Jin and Song Jin. So, Song Jin is still a yellow flower at this time! This son was raised in vain! He only knows how to be mean when a beauty is by his side. He doesn''t even do what a normal man should do? ! Mrs. Li snorted coldly, "My mother''s request is not high. Just fulfill your promise." Qin Chi stiffened slightly when he heard this. Song Jin was suspicious. Just listening, Mrs. Li said again: "Don''t try to fool me again. I won''t leave this time until there is good news." boom! Qin Chi felt like his head was pounding. Before he could say anything, the couple was kicked out of the west wing by Mrs. Li. Song Jin was puzzled to see Qin Chi''s serious face, as if facing a formidable enemy. This was the first time she saw Qin Chi''s expression when she married him. "Ms. sir, are you okay?" Song Jin asked with concern. Qin Chi came back to his senses, turned to look at Song Jin''s worried eyes, his dark eyes gradually narrowed, and said quietly: "It''s not me that''s in trouble now, it''s you that''s in trouble..." Then, he grabbed Song Jin''s wrist. Take the person to the east wing and slam the door shut. Song Jin was shocked when he saw his posture, and wanted to ask on the spot: Doesn''t your speed seem like someone with poor health? Qin Chi walked to the chair in the room and sat down. When you enter here, you can smell a faint fragrance. It''s not a scent, it should be a scent unique to women, and it is different from the layout of men''s rooms. A little more elegant and elegant. This sudden silence made Song Jin nervous. Recalling what had just happened, he quickly found the key point and asked tentatively: "Ms. sir, what did you promise my mother?" Chapter 26 Roommate Chapter 26 Roommate "I found a reason to convince my mother to let you come to the county seat." Qin Chi gradually calmed down. There is nothing pretentious about a grown man. The woman in front of him was originally his, she was sealed by the Yamen, and she was his legitimate wife. Qin Chi then looked at Song Jin as if he were watching a good show, "I want to know what reason I used?" "What reason?" Song Jin saw his attitude. I don''t want to hear it at all. Qin Chi whetted Song Jin''s appetite, and then said slowly: "I told my mother that I can only take you out to live in order not to delay the birth of her eldest grandson." When Song Jin heard this, he felt like he was struck by lightning. This reason As expected of a scholar, he has a lot to think about. Qin Chi was pleased by her reaction. This thing about grandson depends on fate, it doesn''t mean you can have it just by having it. At that time, Qin Chi originally wanted to fool Mr. Li. When Li asked about it later, he just said that fate had not come yet. Who knew he had such bad luck. The day after I moved out, I was caught sleeping in a separate room. This became Qin Chi''s fault. Song Jin finally knew the whole story now, and looked at Qin Chi with strange eyes, which made Qin Chi feel uncomfortable all over. In fact, this is nothing. Song Jin didn''t expect Qin Chi to be so capable and dare to fool even Li. So Qin Chi moved in. Song Jin went to boil water to take a bath, put on clean clothes, and started making dinner. Since Mrs. Li is here, Mrs. Huang next door cannot come. Song Jin understood why Qin Chi did this, but not quite. I understand because I dont want to be the Qin familys pocketbook, but I dont understand because Im facing my parents, so whats there to guard against? Anyway, its all my secrets. It is said that the longer people live, the less they know. Therefore, Song Jin pretended that he had no doubts, and whatever his husband said would be whatever he said. Mr. Li really does what he says. Boss Qin was asked to go back alone, and she stayed. After a simple dinner, Song Jin boiled water and asked Qin Chi to bring it in to Li. When Qin Chi came out again, he took a bunch of his own things and moved them all to the east wing. Li''s attitude was clear. The couple will live together in the future. Qin Chi was calm. It''s not like we never lived together when we were in Qinjiagou. The orange light illuminated the beauty sitting quietly on the bed. Qin Chi didn''t know whether he was thinking of Li''s mission or what, but he always felt a little thirsty. Pour yourself a cup of tea. Still thirsty. Mrs. Li just gave Qin Chi something, saying that if she dared to fool him this time, she would not recognize him as her son. "Madam, it''s getting late." Qin Chi pressed the wick on the table, and the light in the room suddenly dimmed. He took off his shirt and walked to the only bed. Song Jin lay quietly in the innermost position, still giving up half of her position to Qin Chi. I don''t know why, but I always feel that Qin Chi is different tonight. The person is still the same person, but the feeling is different, which makes Song Jin inexplicably nervous. Maybe this is a kind of aggression that belongs to men. It seems that Song Jin is Qin Chi''s target. It will pounce at any time and eat the prey clean. Qin Chi sat on the edge of the bed. No sound was made, but Song Jin always felt that the air around him became a little warmer as he approached. "Madam, when I went back to my room, my mother gave me something and said that if I dared to fool her again, she would not recognize me... What should I do?" Qin Chi spoke very softly. The voice that used to be clear and clear tonight was alluringly hoarse. Song Jin cooperated: "Where are the things?" "for you!" Qin Chi thrust a handkerchief into Song Jin''s hand. It is a white veil, or it may be called a white handkerchief. This was originally a white handkerchief used by newlyweds during the bridal chamber to show the woman''s chastity. Song Jin did not object to the matter between husband and wife. Thinking that Qin Chi would die of illness soon and had been very tolerant of her these days, Song Jin felt grateful. Originally, she had no intention of remarrying, and wanted to wait until he died before setting up a female household. Song Jin thought it would be good if there was a child by his side. Song Jin''s fingers holding the handkerchief were lightly closed. She was nervous in her heart but calmly asked: "Can you physically handle it?" "What?" Qin Chi suddenly turned his head to look at her. Those eyes in the dark night were as sharp as an eagle. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin instinctively shrank back, "Yes, my husband''s health is not good. Did the doctor say that we can have sex?" "Oh" Qin Chi got on the bed and lowered the hanging bed curtains with his hand. There was still a dim light in the room. Suddenly everything went dark. Song Jin only saw a tall figure overturning... Outside the house, a crescent moon slowly rose, casting a soft silver glow, revealing the outline of white walls, black tiles, and cornices, like an elegant ink painting. On such a quiet and peaceful night. There may be people sitting in the courtyard, admiring the beautiful moonlight and feeling the peaceful atmosphere. But in a certain east wing, the spring night was short and full of love. As the night gradually dissipates. All things are awakened and full of vitality. The first ray of sunshine fell, and the mountains in the east seemed to be covered with golden gauze, looking particularly mysterious and solemn. The quiet county town is full of human fireworks. Vendors began to set up stalls on the streets selling steamed buns, sesame seed pancakes and other breakfast foods. The aroma was overflowing and made people salivate. Song Jin, who was riding in Lao Litou''s mule cart heading to Jifang Pharmacy on East Street, was in a particularly complicated mood. From time to time, he couldn''t help but want to touch his sore waist. "My wife, are you coming to pick you up this afternoon?" Lao Li asked. Song Jin responded: "Yes, but two quarters of an hour earlier than yesterday." My mother-in-law is waiting at home and cannot go back too late. Song Jin got up this morning. Qin Chi happened to push the door open and saw Mrs. Li standing outside. Qin Chi looked speechless again and handed the blood-stained handkerchief to Mrs. Li. Mr. Li left with satisfaction. There was no fire in the morning, so Qin Chi went outside to buy breakfast. The family of three had breakfast. Qin Chi brought a box with books and said he was going to the academy. Song Jin really didn''t want to stay with Mr. Li. As soon as I thought of yesterday''s excuse, I told Mrs. Li. When she heard that Song Jin had found a job in the county town, helping to sort out medicinal materials in the backyard of a drug store, Mrs. Li had no objection and just asked her to do her job well. Women from poor families rarely pay attention to women''s precepts. It''s great to have a normal job that can subsidize the family. What''s more, if the couple moves to the county town, their expenses will increase in the future. "Lady!" Just arrived at East Street. Song Jin heard Qin Chi''s call. Turning around, he happened to see Qin Chi standing quietly on the street, with a box and cage at his feet, bathing in the morning light, gazing at her with a soft smile. This moment was so beautiful that even Song Jin couldn''t move his eyes away. Qin Chi picked up the box and strode over. A sick man! Damn sick man! At this moment, Song Jin could no longer look directly at the so-called sick man. At this moment, Qin Chi is still tall and thin. But, after last night, she suddenly understood something. Just like making your clothes a little bigger and wearing them while walking, it will definitely make people feel thinner... Chapter 27 Send my wife to the pharmacy Chapter 27 Send the lady to the pharmacy Qin Chi got on the mule cart. Song Jin took his book box and put it in the car, "Shouldn''t my husband go to the academy?" "I want to take my wife to the pharmacy first." With his mother watching him at home, it was hard for Qin Chi to talk to Song Jin, and her mother was always staring at Song Jin as he walked. As if she was afraid that he would fool her again, Qin Chi couldn''t stay at home for a moment. Qin Chi sat next to Song Jin. At first, he didn''t think about causing harm to others, but last night when he was so beautiful... Even a man cant help it! Investigating the reason, Li''s actions can only be regarded as adding fuel to the flames. But when he woke up this morning, Song Jin''s reaction was too calm, which made Qin Chi''s heart inexplicably tight. Next, from the street to the end of the street. The young couple didn''t speak. Wait for Song Jin to get off the car. Qin Chi watched her enter the drug store with his own eyes, and then Old Li Tou said: "Go to the bookstore to find shopkeeper Tao." "Master, don''t you want to go to the academy?" Old Li Tou couldn''t help but say a few words, "The mountain chief has sent people to ask you three times." "Wait, don''t rush." Qin Chi knew the reason why the mountain chief urged him to go to the academy. People arrived at the bookstore. When he got to the inner room, he leaned on the imperial chair and didn''t want to move. Shopkeeper Tao came in with a bowl of ginseng tea. Seeing Qin Chi closing his eyes and taking a rest, he gently put down the ginseng tea and quietly left. Besides, Song Jin went to the medicine shop. The fence was not removed until people entered the processing room, and then went to take a look at the storage situation of yesterday''s honey loquat leaves. "Little miss, are you here so early?" Yinlong was checking in the medicine store, "Come and see how the honey loquat leaves are stored? I will put them in jars as you said, seal them tightly, and store them in a cool and dry place." "Oh, good." After checking it, Song Jin casually complimented him. Yinlong was very happy when he heard this, and was about to say something else when he saw Song Jin''s appearance, and his expression paused slightly. Others may not be able to see anything. Yinlong was raised by a wealthy family and knew medicine. How could she not see the changes in Song Jin? Even though Song Jin wore her hair in a woman''s bun before, she could still tell that Song Jin was a yellow-flowered girl. It only took one night to break the melon? What happened? Yinlong made insinuating remarks, "How did the young lady sleep yesterday?" "Alright." Song Jin replied with a blushing face. Seeing this, Yinlong was relieved. This was obviously what he wanted, "You asked me to make the medicinal materials to be prepared today." "good!" Song Jin didn''t force it. Then Song Jin told Yinlong that she came to work in the drug store and earned 500 cash per month. Yinlong told Jin Ling about the matter. Because the medicine collected, no matter how good it is, needs to be prepared and preserved in time. Seeing that Song Jin was too busy for the moment, she asked Yinlong to call her husband. The couple has the basics of preparing medicinal materials and it is easy to get started. Song Jin directed them to work. Of course, what Song Jin teaches are ordinary cooking methods of the Song family, and are not the core of the Song family''s true ancestral tradition. Song''s Pharmacopoeia records hundreds of medicinal materials. There are only thirteen types that are always in the hands of the head of the family, even those of her father Song Kuan''s lineage. Not everyone is interested in concocting medicinal ingredients. Song Jin remembered that several of his cousins ??were not interested in this craft. It would not be dignified to tell anyone about the hard work of the craftsmen. This thing actually depends on talent. Just like the same recipe, some people make it delicious, and some people make it unpalatable. At the same time, it is still hard work. "My boss, Zhou Wei wants to see you." There was Zhou Wei''s voice outside the door. Song Jin of this processing room had told the outside world that no one was allowed to come in without her permission. Song Jin put down what he was doing and walked out the door, "What happened?" "Alun and I want to talk to our boss about something." Zhou Wei pointed to the side. There was a peach tree not far away. There were stone tables and benches under the tree. Xing Lun was sitting there writing something. Song Jin walked over. Xing Lun hurriedly put down his pen and said, "Master, come and sit down." As he spoke, he wiped the stone bench next to him with his sleeve. Song Jin sat down generously and glanced at the things on the table. This is the list of drug farmers compiled by Xing Lun. The records are very detailed. Regarding the character, what he is good at, and who is in the family, the words "available" or "to be studied" are also marked. In addition, there is a list of drug farmers of Huairen Medicine Hall. "What are you..." Planning to dig into the foundation of Huairen Medicine Hall? Song Jin looked at the two of them in surprise. Zhou Wei smiled, touched the back of his head and said, "My boss, A Lun said that Huairen Medicine Hall can''t hold on for long, so we have to prepare for a rainy day and keep in touch secretly in private. Once Huairen collapses, we''ll immediately rob him!" "clever!" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin was very impressed. Seeing her attitude, Xing Lun knew that she agreed, "It''s just that the initial investment will be relatively large, and the store''s extra funds will not be enough." Song Jin didn''t have much money. Song Jin had no intention of not giving up the five thousand taels offered to Lao Huo. Although the other party did not find out the whereabouts of his family, he provided key clues and almost died for it. Gave Qin Chi two thousand. I spent one thousand as a holiday gift to the druggist, plus the money spent on collecting medicinal materials, purchasing tools, etc., there should be nothing left. Song Jin said: "I can still spend two thousand, is that enough?" "Enough!" Xing Lun and Zhou Wei responded at the same time. The two looked at each other and smiled. This smile shows who he is plotting against. Sure enough, Song Jin soon found out that they wanted to set up a trap to buy a new batch of medicinal materials from Huairen Medicine Hall at a low price, just in time to make another fortune. You just have to pay for help. Song Jin asked: "Is the person you invited reliable?" "We are all brothers, no problem." Zhou Wei assured by patting his chest. Xing Lun smiled and said: "Don''t worry, boss, we will hire people to act in a few scenes and they will not do anything illegal." Song Jin thought of Xing Lun''s previous life. This guy is someone who likes to play around with the laws of Daxia, but he has never done anything truly harmful. When going back. I saw Qin Chi again next to the mule cart. There are boxes and cages on the car. Song Jin suspected that he did not go to the academy. But the suspicion was just a suspicion, and no inquiry was made. If you don''t think you are the mistress of the house, you should inquire about his whereabouts. What Qin Chi was most satisfied with earlier was that Song Jin didn''t ask too many questions. Now I dont know why, but I feel a little uncomfortable. When going back. I saw Mrs. Li chatting with Mrs. Huang. "You''re all back? I''ve already prepared the meal." When Mrs. Li smiled, her whole body seemed to have a layer of soft light, which was incredibly gentle. Mr. Li is new to kitchen work. It was only with Mrs. Huang''s help that it was successfully completed. While waiting to eat in the hall, Mrs. Li couldn''t help but sigh that her neighbors in the county were nice. Qin Chi agreed with a smile. I saw the mother and son talking seriously, looking like a loving mother and a filial son. Song Jin lowered his head to eat in silence. "At noon, your father came over and gave me a change of clothes. He didn''t stay long and went back." When Mrs. Li mentioned Boss Qin, there was a smile on her face. Qin Chi said: "Why don''t you stay with dad for one night?" "Everyone in my family has been clearing up wasteland recently. There is a lot of work, and your grandfather will not let him be idle." Hearing what Li said. Only then did Song Jin think of planting salvia. If Mrs. Li doesn''t work at home, she might as well live in the county town. It just so happens that I won''t be in the eyes of the two Lius at home. (End of chapter) Chapter 28 Cant repay kindness with hatred Chapter 28: Dont repay kindness with hatred Life in the county town is peaceful. There are some changes in the days, but not much. Song Jin found that Mrs. Li was a very good mother-in-law, who would not make trouble unreasonably or be messy. She was completely different from the old Mr. Liu. It was Qin Chi who Song Jin couldn''t understand. Qin Chi had to go to the academy during the day, and Song Jin also left early and came back late. They were still busy with their own affairs, but there were more normal exchanges between husband and wife at night. Song Jin secretly mentioned several doctors with good medical skills, but Qin Chi just smiled and did not answer. He didn''t say anything, but his attitude was expressed. He doesn''t need to. This made Song Jin not quite understand. Qin Chi did indeed die of illness in his previous life. Wouldn''t it be better if there were hidden diseases that were treated early? Qin Chi looked like he had given up completely. But further exploration would cross the line. Song Jin hesitated for a moment and stopped asking. After all, Qin Chi gave her an increasingly mysterious feeling, as if he was trying his best to hide something. What''s more, Song Jin is also tired every day. The best medicinal materials were collected and prepared in time. I dont know how shopkeeper Tao sells it, but he does business very quickly. Yesterday Song Jin received 5,300 taels. He immediately took out three hundred taels. Jin Ling and Yin Long were rewarded with one hundred each. Xing Lun and Zhou Wei were each rewarded fifty taels each, and then everyone was asked to rest for two days. This silver reward was more than what they had earned after six years of hard work, and everyone was smiling. Mr. Li lived in the early autumn. Talking about staying until Song Jin became pregnant was just to scare his son. "Mom, you live well here. What are you doing back here?" Qin Chi doesn''t want Li to go back. Li''s health is not good and she often needs to take medicine. It''s good to recuperate in the county. Li laughed and scolded: "You heartless person, haven''t you thought about your father for so many days? We both eat and drink well here, leaving him alone at home to work as a cow and a horse..." "My father will definitely be happy." Qin Chi still knew his father quite well. Li Shi gave him a strange look, "How do you know your father is happy?" "In my father''s heart, his wife is the most important, followed by his missing grandson, and finally my worthless son." "hehe" Mrs. Li laughed out loud, "You have wronged your father. To your father, you are still quite valuable." "How many cents? Three cents?" Qin Chi calmly said the number. Song Jin wasn''t sure why Qin Chi asked for three cents, but after he proposed it, Mrs. Li laughed even more. Qin Chi saw Song Jin''s look and said, "Want to know the story behind the three cents?" "Come and listen." Song Jin was not disappointed. On the other hand, Mr. Li excitedly talked about the origin of "three pennies". Back then, Boss Qin dug up some mountain products and sold them at the village fair, and he brought his three-year-old son with him. At that time, little Qin Chi was so cute and white that he was very popular. A stranger passed by. When he came to Boss Qin, he spoke a lot of foreign dialects. Boss Qin didn''t understand what the other party said. He thought he was asking about the price of mountain goods, so he directly said three cents and made the sign of three. As a result, the other party threw down thirty taels of silver and wanted to take Xiao Qin Chi away. This frightened Boss Qin. He thought he had encountered a trafficker, so he beat him up and sent him to prison. A big joke was made. That man had no son, and when he saw little Qin Chi, he fell in love with it and wanted to buy it back to be his son. There are many people selling their children in the mountains, so I tried to ask them. Unexpectedly, Boss Qin made an offer... This incident caused quite a stir at that time. It spread almost throughout Yixian County and even older people had heard of it. Unable to withstand Li''s insistence, Qin Chi could only say that he would send her back. Song Jin offered to go back with him. This society is unfair to women. However, compared with the harshness of the previous dynasty, the laws of this dynasty are considered tolerant to women. Widows can establish a female household and take away their dowry when they remarry. After living an extra life, Song Jin had a tough mind. However, she would not be so stupid as to openly defy the rules and regulations. Even if it is for the sake of convenience in the future, she must be a gentle, quiet, respectful and gentle lady in front of others. Early the next morning. Song Jin and Qin Chi went to the street to buy some gifts. Most of them are grain and meat. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! After renting some carriages, the young couple took Li back in person. When the carriage entered Qinjiagou, it still attracted the attention of the villagers. Perhaps it could be said that Mr. Qin''s family has become a prominent figure in the village recently. Married a pair of sisters. I took a ride with Jifang Pharmacy again and prepared to plant medicinal materials. The medicine field has basically been sorted out, and it looks a lot like that. Mrs. Liu now walks with her head held high and her chest held high, looking more elegant than before. However, Song Jin came home and took a look. Everyone is tanned and a little thinner, but the one who is full of energy. This is the result of hard work in reclaiming wasteland. Song Jin saw Song Xiu. Song Xiu was returning with a large bucket of washed clothes. The resentment was about to overflow, and the usually fair face was actually tanned. This is incredible. In her previous life, Song Xiu was protected by her sister, and she had not done any housework for three years after marrying into the Qin family. It was she who stood in front of Song Xiu and started doing the laundry, cooking and cleaning. "Sister, you are back!" Song Xiu dropped the bucket and rushed towards Song Jin quickly. Song Jin turned aside and raised his arm to block her, "What are you doing? Who has wronged you?" Song Xiu was so wronged that she was about to burst into tears. Seeing Song Jin avoid it, her tears could no longer be held back, and they fell down, "Oh, sister, do you really not care about me? You left to enjoy the happiness in the county town, but I have to work every day, no?" If you work, you wont be given food, ugh Song Jin sneered in his heart. Cry your **** in front of her! Where did this go? There will be more days like this in the future. Didn''t she also come through this in her previous life? People who don''t work at Old Liu''s place are not qualified to eat. Even Old Man Qin is partial. You still have to learn the light chores at home, no one will take care of you. I remember Song Xiu once said in her previous life that the Qin family was kind to her, so she should help with some housework. He also said that she could not be ungrateful and repay kindness with hatred... "Why are you crying? Are you crying? I''m not dead yet!" Old Liu cursed loudly in the kitchen. Song Xiu trembled with fright. Song Jin only felt that evil people still need to be punished by evil people, and she knew how to pretend, so she pulled Song Xiu aside as if she was distressed and comforted softly: "Xiu''er, the Qin family is kind to us, so we should do some housework. You must not blame others, and you must not repay kindness with hatred..." Hear Song Jin''s words. Song Xiu''s eyes widened in disbelief, staring at Song Jin. "Sister, how can you say that?!" "Am I wrong?" Song Jin looked at Song Xiu with eyes full of ridicule. The words seemed to be stuck in Song Xiu''s throat. The purpose of crying with grievance was to make Song Jin soften her heart and take her to the county seat. This trick worked very well for Song Jin in his previous life, so why is it wrong? Wait, what Song Jin just said... Chapter 29 Screaming at night Chapter 29 Screaming at night "You''re back too!" Song Xiu blurted out and exclaimed. The corners of Song Jin''s mouth were slightly raised, and the smile did not reach her eyes. "Song Xiu, the sisterhood in this life has been severed by your own hands a long time ago. You didn''t listen to a word of my previous warning. I hope... there will be no next time." You can tell from the fact that Song Xiu ran to her and cried again. This was how it was in the previous life. When she encountered something that couldn''t be solved, Song Xiu would cry in front of her and ask her to help openly or secretly. Caring about the relationship between sisters. Thinking of each other is the only relative in this world. Song Jin will most likely help. Song Xiu could still be righteous, but did he think that Song Jin didn''t know the inside story of his previous life? It was revealed directly that Song Jin didn''t want to argue with Song Xiu anymore. Song Xiu''s face changed drastically, she was both shocked and stunned, "Then why...?" Why did you agree to change your marriage? ! Song Jin smiled. "You want to ask me why I agreed to exchange marriages? Of course, it is more comfortable to be a widow than to be a widow." After saying that, Song Jin turned around and left! In an instant, thunder exploded in Song Xiu''s mind, and she was extremely panicked. I can''t tell whether it''s because he did something bad and was exposed by Song Jin, or because of what Song Jin said. "Song Jin, stop!" Song Xiu rushed forward to catch Song Jin, "Tell me clearly, what does it mean to be a widow? Could it be..." Qin Mingsong can''t be humane? ! In the Qin family''s yard, Song Jin didn''t want to make trouble with Song Xiu or make others laugh. "open!" Song Jin stared at the hand held by Song Xiu. Song Xiu held on tighter, and was so anxious that she forgot to lower her voice: "Sister, Qin Mingsong is really inhumane? What if I marry him?!" "puff-" "Ahem..." Not far away. At the door of the yard. Qin Chi was still holding the gift bought by Song Jin in his hand. He was bending over and coughing weakly, making his face invisible. I couldn''t hold back my laughter for a moment and choked on my saliva! Next to Qin Chi stood Qin Mingsong, who had just returned from the academy. That calm and arrogant demeanor can hardly be maintained at this time. There was black air all over. Next to him was Boss Qin. Boss Qin helped carry things. This time, Qin Mingsong took advantage of the academy''s monthly holiday and thought of his family''s attitude last time, so he made a special trip back. When I came back, I bought gifts for my family. Did you hear this when you first entered the yard? Song Jin is now speechless. Song Xiu turned around and saw Qin Mingsong, and she was almost scared out of her mind! "Fourth brother, don''t be angry. It''s my sister who heard some bad news outside..." Song Xiu knows how to shirk responsibility. Seeing the exposed back of Song Xiu''s head, Song Jin slapped it. "Xiu''er, you have grown up. You should be responsible for what you have done and said. Don''t shirk responsibility when something happens." Song Jin finished his words with great emphasis. They turned around and met Qin Chi again. He took the things from Qin Chi''s hand with a natural and gentle manner. "Why didn''t my husband wait for me to carry it? What should you do if you are tired with such a heavy thing?" "It''s okay, don''t worry." Qin Chi was already relieved. If he hadn''t given Qin Mingsong face, Qin Chi wouldn''t have been able to hold back his laughter and would have choked himself instead. Song Xiu followed up with a guilty conscience, pretending to carry something for Qin Mingsong. Qin Mingsong avoided it with a cold face and walked around Song Xiu. Song Xiu stamped his foot and was so angry. When he passed by Song Jin, he instinctively wanted to express his anger, but when he remembered that Song Jin was no longer the same person as before, he suddenly became weak again. Looking at Qin Mingsong''s tall back. Song Xiu was confused. Is it wrong to change relatives? When he saw Song Jin half-holding Qin Chi''s arm in, he immediately thought that Qin Chi was a short-lived ghost. At least Qin Mingsong is not dead. In the future, she can be made the wife of a Shangguan official, and maybe even get a royal title. Thinking of the good days ahead, Song Xiu felt as if she had been given a shot of blood again, and her depressed look disappeared. Go take that bucket of laundry home. On the other side, Qin Chi and Song Jin entered the room. I saw a light dust on the table. Song Jin took out an old cloth and began to wipe the dust off the tables and chairs. Qin Chi stood in front of the big bookshelf, also cleaning the dust on it, "Madam, why did Song Xiu suddenly shout such words?" Song Jinfeng turned her eyes slightly and pretended to be helpless and said: "It''s probably because you heard some rumors outside and thought it was wrong. If you are scared, come to me for discussion." "Oh." Qin Chi looked at Song Jin with clear disbelief. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! No one knows better than him what the relationship between these two sisters is. However, Song Jin made it clear that he didn''t want to tell, and Qin Chi didn''t necessarily know. "Fourth daughter-in-law, why are you hanging around outside? You can show me off by drying your clothes. Come over to the kitchen and help light the fire!" Mrs. Liu shouted in the kitchen. "Hey! I''m coming!" Song Xiu trudged out of the room, looking back three times, hoping Qin Mingsong would stop her. Now everyone else in the family is working in the barren mountains. Even the twins and two-year-old Erya went to pick up pebbles. Mr. Liu went home to cook. As for Song Xiu, no one expects her to do heavy work in the fields. But some light tasks at home still fell to Song Xiu. With Mr. Liu watching over him, Song Xiu couldn''t do it even if he didn''t want to. Song Xiu came to the kitchen and said, "Mom, my husband-in-law is back." "What?" Mr. Liu, who was cooking vegetables, didn''t hear clearly. Song Xiu looked back behind her, and when she saw that there was no one there, she walked up to Mrs. Liu and whispered, "Mom, I didn''t know this before, but I just found out today..." "You know what? Louder." Old Liu''s ears are not as flexible as those of young people. Song Xiu''s face turned red and she said, "My husband is not very good at that." A sonorous sound. The spatula in Old Liu''s hand fell to the ground and she stared at Song Xiu, "What did you say?" Song Xiu was frightened by Old Liu''s expression, "That''s right, fourth brother''s, that''s not good." Upon hearing this, Mr. Liu was greatly shocked. This is her most beloved son, how come he has such a problem! If a man is no longer humane, is he still a man? No, you have to think of a way. Old Liu suddenly thought of something. If it doesn''t work normally, why don''t you try some medicine? "I remember someone in the village knew how to breed sows..." Mrs. Liu walked out anxiously, and before leaving, she asked Song Xiu to keep an eye on the food in the pot. Song Xiu responded happily. Song Jin, who was in the room at this time, didn''t know that something big was going to happen again because of Song Xiu''s overthinking. No matter how many years some people live, they just grow old and not brainy. When the Qin family who are working outside come home. They were very happy to see Qin Chi and Song Jin back, and each of them received another gift. The gift is not expensive, but it still makes everyone happy. What was surprising was that when Qin Mingsong came back, he actually gave his family a gift for the first time. Even the two-year-old Erya got a flower head. "What kind of happy day is today? My brother-in-law and Da Lang are back and they have brought us gifts. If you come back more often in the future, I will ask my mother to cook meat for you." Xiao Liu smiled happily. If you have something to collect, you can also eat some meat. It''s a wonderful day. But that night, a scream like a slaughtering pig came from Qin Mingsong and Song Xiu''s room... (End of chapter) Chapter 30 absurd Chapter 30 Ridiculous "what happened?" Song Jin heard it, and the person who screamed was Song Xiu. Qin Chi just took off his outer shirt, put it on quickly and walked outside, "I''ll go out and take a look." Its not just Qin Chi and Song Jin. Everyone in the other rooms was awakened. Song Jin put on his coat and came out, and saw old Liu standing guard outside Qin Mingsong''s door. When he heard the screams, not only did he not panic, he also looked very happy. Soon. The noises coming from Qin Mingsong''s room started to become strange. The noise was getting louder and louder, without any restraint. Song Jin blushed upon hearing this. Ms. Lin from the third room was so embarrassed that she hurried back to her room. As soon as Ms. Li showed up, she was pushed into the room by Boss Qin. But Xiao Liu spat, "I really can''t believe that my brother-in-law is still capable of this." "You bitch, what are you talking about?" Qin Laoer chuckled and pulled Xiao Liu back to the room, "Your men are more capable, do you want to give it a try?" "Get out of here!" Xiao Liu yelled. What did the scream just now mean? At first everyone was shocked. When the humming sound came out, the adults all understood. On the contrary, the child wanted to poke his head in, but the adults rushed him back. Si Fang is not ashamed, they still want to be ashamed. After a while, everyone went back to the room again. Only Song Jin looked at Old Liu thoughtfully when he went back. Qin Chi closed the door. "Is this related to the previous matter?" Qin Chi''s words had no beginning or end. Song Jin understood instantly, "That''s probably it. The old lady is also involved." Qin Chi was frightened after hearing this, "Suddenly I felt sympathy for my uncle." "Maybe people are enjoying it." Song Jin rolled her eyes cutely. Qin Chi laughed, "You''re right. This kind of medicine will only make people have thoughts, not lose their minds." To make such a big noise, it can only be said that Qin Mingsong suppressed it too much, but Qin Chi would not tell his wife clearly. At the same time, Qin Chi was a little grateful to Qin Mingsong. He was the only one who could control the magical minds of an old man and a young boy in his family. Song Jin didn''t know what Song Xiu was thinking? She just talked about being a widow. Song Xiu had no idea that Qin Mingsong had an affair. His first thought was to suspect that Qin Mingsong was inhumane? "The night is so beautiful tonight." Song Jin said nonsensically. Qin Chi chimed in meaningfully: "Indeed, it puts my wife in a good mood." Song Jin smiled and picked up the pillow to hit him. Qin Chi held the person in his arms. The two laughed and fell on the bed. In his previous life, Qin Mingsong won the Jinshi. When the news came back, Qinjiagou was very shocked. Every woman envied Song Jin for marrying a good husband. In fact, his ranking is not high. There was no waiting for a vacancy in the court. Later, Song Jin provided money, and Qin Mingsong hired people to work for two years before he got an official position in the capital. After the news spread, Song Xiu suddenly disliked her husband for failing the exam twice for some reason, insisted on making a divorce, and asked Song Jin to make the decision for her. Song Jin firmly disagreed. Song Xiu actually stole Song Jin''s Luban box and eloped with a man. Song Xiu did not take the valuable things in the house, but took the Luban box because Song Xiu knew very well that Song Jin valued this box the most and put all the valuable things in it. After the elopement, Song Xiu lost his whereabouts. Song Jin searched for it for a long time but could not find it. It was precisely because of what Song Xiu did that Old Liu took advantage of Song Jin. Later, Qin Mingsong took his family to take office. Song Jin did not object. In addition to not liking Qin Mingsong, another reason is that among the things Song Xiu stole, in addition to jewelry and banknotes, there was also Song Jin''s household registration documents. Eight years have passed since the Song family case, and no one has come back to trace Song Jin''s life experience. But without household registration documents, it is impossible to apply for road guidance. "Madam, what are you thinking about, so absorbed?" Qin Chi lay on his side, supporting half of his head with his elbows, facing Song Jin. An index finger was gently picking up Song Jin''s black hair that had fallen on the pillow, playing with it a few times, and then bringing it to the tip of his nose for a sniff. Song Jin looked sideways, using the dim light. I could just vaguely see the outline of his face. Song Jin said truthfully: "I''m thinking about Xiu''er and my uncle." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "What do they think?" "It''s my fault that I didn''t explain it clearly." Song Jin pretended to be a kind little lady and blamed herself: "What should I do if my uncle misunderstands Xiu''er in the future? But this medicine is obviously from breast milk. Xiu''er can''t get this medicine with his brain." "Duplicity." Qin Chi did not miss the sparkling look in her eyes. Song Jin slapped his fingers away and said, "Master, please don''t talk nonsense." Qin Chi chuckled softly, "My uncle is always good at pretending. He will definitely give you, the concubine, a cold face in front of others for a few days, but it''s not a big problem. Some things that stick to the law will happen again if you break the precept once. " Just like him. the next day. Song Xiu didn''t leave the room all morning. Qin Mingsong came out with a gloomy face and blue eyes. It was obvious that he had not rested well. Then he went to the main room to find Old Man Qin. I dont know what Qin Mingsong said to old man Qin. Old Qin locked up the room and questioned Old Liu, "Say! Did you really drug Si''er?" "This, this..." Old Mrs. Liu was so frightened that he shrank back. Old Man Qin shouted: "Speak quickly, or I will beat you up if you don''t tell me!" Old Liu felt aggrieved, but she still told the whole story, and then wiped her tears and said, "I did it for Si''er''s own good, what did I do wrong?" "You, you ignorant idiot!" Old man Qin was so angry that his veins were bulging. Qin Mingsong, who was standing aside and heard the reason, also had a dark face. He never expected that it was such a ridiculous reason. "Mom, you just believe what little Mrs. Song says, haven''t you ever asked me?" Qin Mingsong was angry and had nowhere to vent his anger. Old Mrs. Liu didn''t think anything was wrong at all, "Mom, if you don''t ask, isn''t it because you are taking your face into consideration?" These words made Qin Mingsong even more angry and threw out his sleeves. He shouldn''t have gone home yesterday! If you don''t go home, this won''t happen! Qin Mingsong rushed out of the yard and suddenly saw three brothers outside looking at him with burning eyes. Several sisters-in-law were embarrassed to look at him. Apparently everyone in the family knows what happened last night? This embarrassing thing was something Qin Mingsong had never experienced in his life. His face was filled with embarrassment. He turned around and tried to run back to his room. However, after taking a few steps, his legs went weak. Almost fell! He didn''t fall because someone helped him in time. Qin Chi asked with concern on his face: "Uncle, are you okay?" Qin Mingsong has not answered yet. It was Xiao Liu who took the lead and said cheerfully: "It''s nothing. My uncle was too tired last night and his legs are weak. He just needs to go back to his room and take a rest." This little Liu really dares to say anything. Qin Lao Er and others strode forward, "Fourth Lao, do you want me to help you back to your room?" "No, no, I''m fine." Qin Mingsong''s face was filled with shame and he hurriedly entered the house. The sound of closing the door was very loud! (End of chapter) Chapter 31 Things from Hangzhou Chapter 31 Things from Hangzhou "Uncle, you are so shy!" Xiao Liu said happily. Song Jin came out of the house just in time to hear it. This family is much happier because the second aunt is here. When Xiao Liu saw Song Jin, her eyes lit up, and she came up to her with a smile: "Da Lang''s wife, there are steamed buns in the pot, do you want to eat them?" "Thank you, Second Aunt. I''ll get it in a minute." Song Jin was stunned by Xiao Liu''s attentive appearance. In her previous life, Xiao Liu was not so enthusiastic. Xiao Liu said again: "I''ll help you get it." "How can this be done? I can do it myself." Song Jin didn''t dare to ask his elders to help him get food. Went into the kitchen and got two steamed buns. When Song Jin came out again, he saw the adults at home, holding tools and preparing to go out. It was Xiao Liu who was dawdling. "Dalang''s wife, are you going to the county again today?" Xiao Liu asked softly. Song Jin nodded. I was wondering what happened to Mr. Liu today. Little Liu looked left and right, and when she saw that no one was paying attention, she asked in a low voice: "I heard from my sister-in-law that you found a job in the county, and you can earn 500 yuan a month?" Song Jin nodded again. "Is the drug store still accepting people?" Xiao Liu looked at her with expectation. Song Jin understood now. It turned out that I was looking for a job. But when he thought of Mr. Liu going to work in the drug store, and then not being able to hide anything in the drug store, Song Jin felt excited in his heart, but he didn''t show it on his face, but he said: "Second Aunt, the shopkeeper didn''t say anything about hiring people. I''ll tell you when they do." "Okay!" Xiao Liu was so happy that she picked up the **** and put it on her shoulder. After walking a few steps, she turned back and said, "Daughter-in-law, if you have any news, you must tell me." "Okay, definitely." Song Jin answered sincerely. Qin Chi came over and said, "What did you promise Second Aunt?" "Ask the shop if they still accept people, and tell her if they do." Whether to accept someone or not depends on Song Jin''s words. Song Jin didn''t say anything about accepting people now, which meant that he was just talking politely. Song Jin gave one of the steamed buns to Qin Chi. Qin Chi took it and took a bite, "This is steamed by Third Aunt." "Can you eat this?" Song Jin was surprised. Qin Chi said: "Third Aunt''s steamed buns are soft." "Brother, sister-in-law." Sanlang ran here from the backyard and greeted the two of them quickly. The little hands were black, as if they were stained with black coal, and they were standing by the water tank, scooping water to wash their hands. The little hand grabbed it. A black handprint immediately appeared on the handle of the gourd and scoop. "How many are there?" Qin Chi asked confusedly. Sanlang replied with a smile: "There is half a basin. Brother, I will give you candy in exchange for it next time. I want to buy all the candy." "You''re a young man with only this much potential. Let''s learn from your second brother." Qin Chi raised his eyebrows. Saburo shook his head like a rattle. "I don''t want to be as stupid as my second brother. I can still eat it in exchange for candy, but my mother robbed me of it in exchange for money. I haven''t lost a penny for all my hard work. My second brother is really miserable. All his hard work has been in vain." Qin Chi chuckled. Song Jin was confused when he heard this. Sanlang went to the pot to get two steamed buns and ate them with big mouthfuls. After he finished eating, he ran towards the yard behind Qin''s house. Song Jin asked: "What is he going to do?" "Get the cigarettes. The ink I usually use is all made by myself. Any excess will be given to Mr. Yamazhanghe." Seeing her curiosity, Qin Chi took her to a thatched house behind Qin''s house. On the floor in the house, dozens of oil lamps were lit in porcelain bowls. On top of the small flame, there was a large porcelain bowl turned upside down. The large porcelain bowl is secured with a bamboo cover. The flames smoked out a thin layer of black soot inside the bowl. At this time, Saburo picked up a bamboo cover with his left hand and a chicken feather in his right hand, scraping the dark soot from the inside of the large porcelain bowl into the ceramic basin little by little. There is only a thin layer of black powder on the pelvic floor, which is what Saburo calls a small half basin. Song Jin almost no longer recognizes Xiaoban. At most, it just covers the pelvic floor. "This is the smoke used to make ink..." It was the first time that Song Jin saw this method of taking out cigarettes. Qin Chi did not deny it, "Going into the mountains to find old pine trees is dangerous and troublesome, so I use tung oil to make cigarettes." The tung oil lamps that people use to light up at night use tung oil, which can be purchased in the county or township market. However, the tung oil used by Qin Chi to make ink also contains lard and lacquer. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The production process of Hui ink is complicated. Tobacco and glue are the two most important raw materials for making Hui ink. Taking out the cigarette is only the first step of production, which is extremely delicate. Huangshan pine is the original material for smoking, and it is also necessary to use old pine trees that are unproductive in deep mountains and old forests, such as pine trees in the cracks of stones. The smoke produced by that kind of tree is of the best quality. But old pine trees are hard to find. Ink makers gradually used oil fumes instead. The job of scraping smoke is not heavy, but it is tedious and time-consuming. Qin Chi left it to Erlang and Sanlang. Song Jin also saw ink-making tools and several ceramic basins placed in the corner next to them. The basin is covered with wooden boards, which must also be raw materials. This was someone else''s craft, and Song Jin didn''t ask much about it. Qin Chi checked it out. He asked Saburo to do a good job and promised to bring him candy next time he came back. Saburo was so happy that he couldn''t find the north. When Song Jin saw Saburo being fooled, he could only say that children are easy to fool. After not staying at home for long, Song Jin followed Qin Chi to his home in the county town. This time Li didn''t follow. However, Qin Chi was secretly sneaked into the room and explained. When Qin Chi came out and looked at Song Jin again, his eyes were strange. It was probably related to the birth of his grandson. Song Jin pretended not to see it. That night, someone knocked on the door. Qin Chi went to see the visitor. The visitor did not enter the room, but handed Qin Chi a cloth bag. Song Jin glanced doubtfully at the cloth bag in his hand. Qin Chi said: "I asked the other person to come into the house, but the person said no. He just said that there is something from Hangzhou Prefecture, and I was ordered to deliver it to you. Madam, is this from your relative?" "Maybe..." Song Jin was confused and said a perfunctory sentence. My eyes fell on the cloth bag, and I didn''t dare to reach out to pick it up. When Qin Chi looked at the cloth bag, "This bag is not heavy. Do you want to open it? Do you want me to help you open it..." "No, I''ll do it!" Song Jin grabbed the cloth bag, her hands trembling slightly, but when she was about to open it, she looked at Qin Chi and hesitated to speak. Qin Chi said with a smile: "I''ll go to the west wing to read a book. If you''re tired, take a rest first." "good" Song Jin was grateful for his thoughtfulness. After Qin Chi exited the room. Song Jin opened the cloth bag in a panic. It is a woman''s dress. The dress is badly damaged, but the material, style, and embroidery work can still be seen to be the local style of Huizhou. Song Jin opened her dress and found the sleeve of her left hand. Inside the sleeve, take apart one piece. When he saw the seal character "Song" embroidered inside, Song Jin felt no more luck! The tears in my eyes fell all of a sudden... (End of chapter) Chapter 32 quiet night Chapter 32 Quiet Night Qin Chi was actually standing in the corridor outside the door. Hearing the suppressed crying coming from inside, Qin Chi''s heart seemed to be tightly grasped by something. Several times I wanted to rush into the house to comfort her. Finally, I suppressed it. Song Jin didn''t want his secret to be known. Qin Chi fulfilled her wish and pretended not to know. From the first day he met Song Jin, Qin Chi could tell that she was extremely defensive of outsiders. There seemed to be a thick wall built around her. Block the prying eyes of outsiders. And trust between people cannot be established overnight. If one day she opens her heart to him, she will naturally take the initiative to tell him. In this regard, Qin Chi is very similar to Song Jin. He stood for a long time. Qin Chi walked to the west wing. On the innermost wall. There was a large bookcase on the wall, and Qin Chi pressed a switch. The large bookcase is divided into two parts. A secret door appeared in the middle, only one person could pass through. Qin Chi passed through the secret door. Came to the house next door. This room is the same size as the west wing. Opening the door, there were two people guarding outside. One is shopkeeper Tao. The other is a man in his thirties who is leaning on crutches. The man had a full beard and a fierce look, but there seemed to be clear stupidity in his eyes. When the two saw Qin Chi, they immediately saluted. Qin Chi looked at the man, "Didn''t you say it would take half a month to get out of bed?" "Sir, if I lie down any longer, my body will become moldy." This man is Lao Huo. He was originally recovering from his injuries in Tunxi, but he couldn''t lie down even if he could move, so he had to be sent back to Yixian County. The people over there couldn''t resist him, in fact they were annoying him to death, so they could only send someone in a carriage to secretly send him here to recover from his injuries, and also sent Doctor Jing over. Qin Chi asked them to sit in the room. Shopkeeper Tao and Lao Huo went in. The layout of the house is simple, like a small study room. Qin Chi sat down and asked the two of them to find chairs to sit on. Shopkeeper Tao was still hesitating whether to sit down. Lao Huo had already limped to the chair closest to Qin Chi and sat down, "Sir, I haven''t seen you for a long time. I''m surprised." When Qin Chi heard this, he got goosebumps inexplicably, "Speak carefully and think about it before you speak." What does a grown man say he doesnt want? Especially since the other party looks like a big man who can make a child stop crying. Shopkeeper Tao just delivered a cloth bag and said he had something to report, so Qin Chi asked him to wait for him next door. Lao Huo, who was in the room, heard Shopkeeper Tao coming over. Even with a cane on his back, he had to come and wait. Shopkeeper Tao reported what happened in the past two days to Qin Chi, and then there was the investigation by the Hangzhou government. When the ship has gone to sea. The spies over there focused on the Zhu family again. Someone was sent to contact the Zhu family in charge of the cargo ship, including some people who delivered the goods that day. As Qin Chi guessed, the Zhu family was not behind the scenes. Someone asked them to come to Tunxi to pick up a batch of goods at a high price and deliver the goods to Hangzhou. It is said to be valuable porcelain. Be careful when letting them carry it. There were special escorts throughout the entire process, and the employees on the Zhu family''s ship were not allowed to approach the warehouse. Qin Chi thought about it for a long time and asked in a deep voice: "Have you found out who in the Zhu family took the order?" "Young master, you still suspect that there is something wrong with the Zhu family?" Shopkeeper Tao couldn''t help but ask. Judging from the information obtained through the investigation, the Zhu family does not look like insiders. On the other hand, Lao Huo looked at Shopkeeper Tao as if he were a fool, "Young master, I want you to follow this line to check. Even if the Zhu family has no problem, the person who took the order may also have a problem. Even if the person who took the order has no problem, the next Who Shan is, he should know, right?" "There''s no need to check. The person taking the order is the third young master of the Zhu family." Shopkeeper Tao had a hard time talking about the third young master of the Zhu family. Because this Third Young Master Zhu is only ten years old this year. It is said that the order was taken by accident on the road. Needless to say, it was someone else''s fault. Although there is no seal of the Zhu family. But the third young master of the Zhu family signed the contract. Even though the head of the Zhu family suspected that there might be something wrong with this order, the other party just asked the Zhu family to transport a batch of Tunxi porcelain to Hangzhou, and a cargo ship would come to hand over the goods on the way. Taking a risk, the Zhu family took it. The customer naturally requested confidentiality. But Qin Chi''s people went to investigate and found out the general appearance of the person who placed the order. His surname was Fan. Others called him Mr. Fan. He claimed to be an overseas businessman and knew nothing else. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "This is the portrait of Mr. Fan." Shopkeeper Tao gave a portrait to Qin Chi. Qin Chi opened it and took a few glances. It had a very ordinary appearance. "Look for someone based on this portrait. If you don''t have a thousand, you can find hundreds." Qin Chi threw the portrait on the desk. The clue is thus broken. Qin Chi was wondering about the whereabouts of the Song family. Lao Huo stood up and walked to the desk, took the portrait, opened it and looked at it, "It''s exactly what the young master said." An ordinary and unremarkable appearance, lost in the crowd. "Everyone has his or her own characteristics, but he looks ordinary. Sir, do you think there is something wrong with the painter? He deliberately painted this person''s portrait like this." Lao Huo told his guess. Shopkeeper Tao was speechless, "I asked the Zhu family and they all said it was like this." "Okay, this person may have been pretending." Qin Chi didn''t let them investigate again. The people behind the scenes are very careful and clean. Qin Chi asked: "There''s no news from the northwest?" "It''s a long journey, so we have to wait for a while." Shopkeeper Tao knew Qin Chi was just asking. Huizhou is really far from the northwest. Just using a special channel to send the message would take more than twenty days. Qin Chi told shopkeeper Tao something more and sent him back first. At this time, Qin Chi turned his attention to Lao Huo and said, "Tell me, come to me if you want to, what''s the matter?" "Young Master still understands me." Lao Huo looks like a rough guy. But what I used to do in the army was technical work of detecting the enemy''s situation. Lao Huo scratched his beard and said with a smile: "I heard that the young master caught two people who were chasing me. Can I go and have a look?" "Go find old Uncle Li." Qin Chi waved his hand to indicate that Lao Huo could retreat. It was a fluke that we caught the two of them in the first place. Because these two people were stabbed by Lao Huo, Qin Chi asked people to guard various intersections of Tunxi, including the pier. If you smell something medicinal on someone, check it out. We really found two suspicious people. Who knew that the other party would want to run away as soon as he saw something unusual. They happened to catch him red-handed, knocked him unconscious and sent him to Zhuangzi outside Yi County for interrogation. Both of them were tough-talking and didn''t dig out anything. One thing is certain, he is indeed a dead soldier raised from childhood. After sending Lao Huo away, Qin Chi returned to the west wing of his home. Close the secret door. After sitting in the room for a while, he opened the door and went to the east wing. Dim light shone through the carved windows of the east wing, and a slender figure sat in the room. For a long time, no one moved. Always a quiet night. Only tonight, it was so quiet that it was heart-wrenching. (End of chapter) Chapter 33 County examination registration Chapter 33 County Examination Registration Qin Chi waited until the lights in the room dimmed and Song Jin went to bed to rest, then he quietly opened the door and entered the room. Song Jin slept on his side. Turn your back to the outside. Qin Chi lay beside her and did not provide any unnecessary comfort. His wife is so strong that it worries him, so staying quiet and not disturbing her may be the best thing to do. A night passed. Everything in the world seems to be waking up from a deep sleep. Smoke can be seen everywhere in the county. When Song Jin got up, there was no one on the pillow. Get out of bed quickly, get dressed and comb your hair. There was a basin of water on the six-legged shelf in the room, and Song Jin quickly washed his face and brushed his teeth. When she left the house, Mrs. Huang had already served breakfast and placed it in the hall, and Qin Chi just came out of the west wing. The couple sat facing each other. Qin Chi observed that Song Jin''s expression was as usual, his eyebrows were clear and gentle, and he was at ease. If it weren''t for Song Jin''s slightly swollen eyes, Qin Chi would have doubted whether he was hallucinating when he heard her crying last night. When Qin Chi was full, he put down his chopsticks and asked, "Are you going to the pharmacy today?" "Um." Song Jin responded. Qin Chi said again: "Then I will send you there." Song Jin did not refuse. Qin Chi''s plan is very good. When he and Song Jin went out. "Pray for peace!" A man''s shout attracted the couple''s attention. They followed the sound and saw a carriage approaching. A scholar jumped out of the car. The scholar is dressed in a simple and elegant gown, wearing a Confucian turban and a Confucian hat, with a clear and upright look on his face. He is similar in age to Qin Chi, but it can be seen from his clothes that he is a scholar. The scholar Ruya bowed his hand to Qin Chi and said with a warm smile: "Mr. Lu Shan said that tomorrow is the deadline for registration for the county examination. I must ask you to go back to the academy." "The chief of the mountain is serious..." Qin Chi felt helpless in his heart, as this happened every year. The scholar turned his attention to Song Jin again, "Is this my younger brother and sister?" "It''s my lady." Qin Chi introduced, "Madam, this is my husband''s classmate Lu Yanji, Lu Xiucai." Song Jin met Qin Chi''s classmate for the first time and bowed politely. "I''ve met Lu Xiucai." Lu Yanji quickly returned the favor and said, "Mrs. Qin, you are so polite." Song Jin was wearing a power fence, so outsiders could not see clearly her appearance, but her demeanor alone showed that she was extraordinary, and Lu Yanji did not dare to look down upon him. Song Jin deliberately retreated behind Qin Chi. Lu Yanji immediately congratulated Qin Chi: "Goodbye, I haven''t seen you in the academy for a long time. It turns out that you are back home and getting married as rumored. Congratulations." Little did he know that these words made Qin Chi''s heart skip a beat. Song Jin looked at him almost at the same time. I remember that before sending Mr. Li back to Qinjiagou, he said to go to the academy every day. Did he go do something else? It''s not that Song Jin is overly worried. This is very likely. Song Jin didn''t know what Qin Chi was doing every day, she just hoped it wasn''t to support his wife. Song Jin has no hope for men in this life. So even though she knew Qin Chi would die, she still married. If he still had an outside wife, I''m afraid Song Jin would die of diaphragm. If it weren''t for the difficult times in the world and her destiny, no woman would be able to tolerate her husband having three wives and four concubines. Only when a man is sick will he feel that his wife should be generous. A wife takes care of the housework, has children, serves her parents-in-law, etc. Which of these is an easy life? That''s it, men are still looking for flowers and willows, and vixens are carrying them home one after another. They are simply stabbing their original wives in the heart with a knife. Therefore, nine out of ten first wives who are considered jealous and vicious by the world were forced out by their husbands. Mi Li blocked Song Jin''s appearance and made Qin Chi miss the look in her eyes. As for congratulations, Qin Chi always responded with a few words, and then Lu Yanji talked about this year''s county examination. Qin Chi changed the subject and said: "Brother Yanji, before we go to the academy, I will take my wife to Jifang Pharmacy first." "There is a carriage, which is convenient." Lu Yanji offered to help. Qin Chi signaled Song Jin to get on the carriage. Then Song Jin and Qin Chi got into the carriage, while Lu Yanji sat outside with the groom to avoid suspicion. Seeing that Qin Chi still had no intention of taking the county examination, Lu Yanji persuaded him earnestly: "Pray for peace, I have studied hard for ten years in a cold window, but I can''t stand the waste year after year." "Think about why you should learn how to govern a country and secure it. It is about caring for the people and safeguarding the country." "I don''t want to have a bright future, I just want to make sure that what I have learned in my life is not in vain. In a hundred years, I may be able to make a name for myself in history..." Scholars love to keep their names clear. What I want most is that my virtues will be remembered in the past and present, my achievements will be remembered in the world, and my name will be left in history. Director Lu Shan of Tachuan Academy, every year when he came to register for the county examination, he would persuade Qin Chi to quit. However, Qin Chi repeatedly refused. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi''s knowledge is far superior to that of his peers. As far as Lu Yanji knows, Qin Chi has received guidance and guidance from at least three great scholars in the past ten years. As long as he ends up, let alone the top three, he will definitely be able to win the Jinshi. It''s a pity that Qin Chi is not interested in the imperial examination. "Last time you went to study craftsmen''s craftsmanship, you made Chang Lu Shan very angry. If you weren''t playing with the four treasures of the study, it would be considered an elegant thing to tell you, and the matter would not be so simple..." Lu Yanji was talking as the carriage moved forward. He tried to persuade Qin Chi every word. Obviously he came with a mission. "Ms. Qin, please advise him not to bury his talent and learn. It is a pity." Lu Yanji couldn''t understand Qin Chi, so he could only turn to Song Jin. Unexpectedly, Song Jin said: "I listen to my husband." "Pfft..." Lu Yanji was so anxious that he jumped up and down, which made Qin Chi couldn''t help laughing. Song Jin looked at Qin Chi thoughtfully. The carriage arrived at the drug store. Song Jin got off the car. Qin Chi waited for Song Jin to enter the shop before lowering the car curtains. Lu Yanji immediately got into the car, "I said Qi''an, we have been brothers for several years, and we didn''t even invite me to a wedding banquet when we got married. It''s not authentic..." The carriage leaves. Stepping into Jifang Pharmacy, Song Jin immediately found that the atmosphere was not right. There were two parties confronting each other inside. But I haven''t lost my mind yet. On one side is Jin Ling and others. On the other side were actually the shopkeeper of Huairen Medicine Hall and seven or eight handymen. The person from Huairen Medicine Hall said fiercely: "This shop is closed today. If you want to see a doctor or buy medicine, go somewhere else." "What happened?" Song Jin asked coldly. Jin Ling and others came over. Zhou Wei pushed Huairen''s men away and stood in front of Song Jin with Xing Lun, while the others protected Song Jin in the middle. Jin Ling said angrily: "My boss, Huairen Pharmacy, brought people in early in the morning and insisted that our Jifang Pharmacy had plotted to rob their farmers. They said we had broken the rules of this industry. They said they wanted to seek justice and that we should compensate for the losses. Song Jin initially thought that Huairen Medicine Hall had discovered that Xing Lun had plotted against them twice. Turns out to be a drug farmer? Now that Huairen is still alive, Xing Lun and others haven''t taken action yet. Song Jin looked at Xing Lun. Xing Lun shook his head. "Master, we don''t have bad rules. Huairen Medicine Hall previously pretended to be one of our people and robbed Lao Yaotou of hundreds of kilograms of leopard skin camphor. We have been too busy recently and haven''t spared the manpower to settle accounts with them. Unexpectedly He is the first to complain!" "That''s unreasonable!" Zhou Wei was furious, as if he was going to rush forward and beat shopkeeper Huairen to death. The shopkeeper Huairen was so frightened that he took a few steps back and let the helper of the medicine hall stand in front of him. (End of chapter) Chapter 34 Someone is looking for trouble Chapter 34 Someone is looking for trouble "Shop Manager Huairen, this matter is not trivial. I will contact your boss to make this matter clear." As soon as Song Jin was about to tell his boss what had happened, shopkeeper Huairen''s eyes flickered and his expression changed. "Our boss knew about this and asked us to come to you to ask for an explanation. Qinjiagou was originally the territory of our Huairen Medicine Hall..." "stop!" Song Jin interrupted shopkeeper Huairen, "When did the rules start to be based on territory?" Now Song Jin understood. It''s a problem for the three herb collectors in Qinjiagou. Rather than the revelation that Zhou Wei and Xing Lun secretly tricked Huairen, if these things were exposed, Jifang Pharmacy would really have some unclear explanations. Before shopkeeper Huairen could speak, Zhou Wei sneered. "Master, you don''t need to pay attention to him. Huairen broke the rules and was surrounded by other medicine halls. He paid a large sum of money privately. I guess he can''t pay the bills now and wants to find Ji Fang to take advantage of him." Zhou Wei bluntly revealed shopkeeper Huairen''s intentions. Shopkeeper Huairen''s expression changed. He just wanted to see Ji Fang, he couldn''t even afford a doctor, and he didn''t dare to ask them for compensation, so he wanted to blackmail him. Song Jin''s voice dropped, "You want to blackmail us?" "What kind of blackmail? It''s obvious that you robbed three of our herb pickers first." Huairen, the shopkeeper, asked in a serious tone, "Do you want to admit it or not? Just go to Qinjiagou and find out." Song Jin sneered, "You robbed me of Jifang''s medicinal materials, and you dare to come here and take a bite? I think you are impatient." Snap! Shopkeeper Huairen slapped the table, "That''s nonsense!" Now he could only hold on to the end. Otherwise, when the boss comes to check the accounts at the end of the month, he will be the boss for the rest of his life! "Shopkeeper Chai." Xing Lun, who had been silent all this time, said, "I have already sent someone to notify the Zeng family." These words hit the nail on the head! To be precise, it''s like sealing the throat with a sword. Shopkeeper Chai''s mouth trembled and he couldn''t speak for a long time. His eyes and face were full of panic. The Zeng family is the owner of Huairen Medicine Hall. The Zeng family is also one of the Huizhou merchants. They are natives of She County and are engaged in medicinal materials business. There is a large pharmacy of its own, but the quality of the medicinal materials is not as good as that of the Song family. However, most of the drug dealers in Huizhou Prefecture transport medicinal materials to other places for sale, so the Song family has little influence on them. Huairen Medicine Hall belongs to the Zeng family. Yi County can only be regarded as a branch. Shopkeeper Chai is the eldest brother of the young lady of the Zeng family. With a layer of nepotism, the original shopkeeper was squeezed out. When he became the shopkeeper, he became arrogant and began to act arrogantly, overturning the rules set by the previous shopkeeper and constantly exploiting the drug farmers. All the money gained from squeezing naturally went into the pocket of shopkeeper Chai. As the saying goes, there are three things a new official should do when he takes office. But the man was so stupid that he burned himself with the fire. With the big chaos happening in Yixian County now, Shopkeeper Chai most likely doesn''t dare to tell the truth to his employer. Song Jin had heard something about this man in his previous life. His legs were broken by the Zeng family and thrown to the Yamen. He was later sentenced, and then there was no news about him. "Kick people out!" Zhou Wei and others immediately took action and drove shopkeeper Chai and the handyman out of the pharmacy. Standing in front of the gate, Song Jin saw Shopkeeper Chai who was still unwilling and deliberately reminded: "Manager Chai, you shouldn''t come to trouble Jifang at this time. Before things get too big, you should go back to find an elder you can talk to and go to the Zeng family to apologize." Upon hearing it, its right! The things that Shopkeeper Chai tried so hard to hide were exposed, and it was imminent. He hated the people at Jifang Pharmacy. But he still had the mood to stay here, so he left in a hurry, planning to follow Song Jin''s instructions and go home to find someone to go to the Zeng family to intercede. Wait for Huairen''s people to leave. Xing Lun asked in confusion: "Why did the boss remind him?" "As an opponent, of course the worse their people are, the better it is for us." Song Jin was calm and relaxed. She didn''t want to eliminate the cancer for the Zeng family. If the other party didn''t provoke Ji Fang, Song Jin would basically be too lazy to pay attention to them. He would just wait secretly for his opponent to make a mistake, and then go up and take a bite of meat. That would be perfect. Xing Lun silently kept Song Jin''s words in mind. Following Song Jin, Xing Lun found that what he learned was more practical than what he learned from books. This morning I was disturbed by Huairen. Everyone''s good mood was ruined. Song Jin walked into the backyard. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Everyone followed her for a moment. Song Jin turned around and said, "Go ahead and do whatever you have to do." Everyone else agreed, but Xing Lun still had something to report, "Boss, there was news from Shun''an before, saying that the medicinal materials business is only 50/50 for one month. After one month, the calculation will be based on the original market price." "Okay, just do as he says." One month is enough to save a sum of money. Song Jin asked confusedly: "How is the situation outside now?" Xing Lun asked back: "My boss is asking about the consequences of a batch of Song''s medicinal materials suddenly flowing out of the market?" "Yes! How''s it going?" "Calm and calm." Xing Lun somewhat admired people from Shun''an doing business, "At first I thought there would be a big mess. Even if there wasn''t a big mess, it would attract a lot of people to inquire about it. But in the end, there was nothing." "That''s what makes it scary." Song Jin reminded Xing Lun and said, "Shun''an is not as simple as we see on the surface. They are not just businessmen." Xing Lun''s eyes suddenly opened wide. If Jifang Pharmacy were to sell medicinal materials, it would not be as seamless as it is now. This batch of medicinal materials did not appear on the Huizhou market. They were probably transported to the capital and other places, and then resold to wealthy families. It was impossible for ordinary people to buy them. The wholesale price alone is not affordable to ordinary people. "After that, focus on collecting the neem bark, and then collect some rhizome, mint, woody scent, etc." Several medicinal materials appeared from Song Jin''s mouth, and Xing Lun and the others were asked to focus on collecting them next. There was a time in the previous life when many people suddenly got insect diseases. Song Jin didn''t know exactly when it started, but it was already the end of the year when the news reached her ears. The efficacy of neem bark is to kill insects and treat ringworm. Be prepared. Xing Lun went to do some business first. Song Jin went to the processing room. Yinlong and his wife would take the initiative to prepare simple medicinal ingredients in the drug store. If the process is complicated, you can only wait for Song Jin to do it, such as the newly collected centipedes that are now placed indoors. "Can''t Aunt Long concoct it? I remember Centipede is not difficult." Song Jin suddenly spoke. Yinlong said thoughtfully: "It''s not difficult, and the preparation of centipedes has been recorded in all dynasties. For example, "Elbow Preparation for Urgent Recipes", "Lei Gong Pao Zhi Lun" of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, "Qian Jin Yifang" of the Tang Dynasty and "Taiping Sheng" of the Song Dynasty I have studied "Hui Fang" and "Shengji Zonglu", etc., but I feel that none of them are as good as those prepared by the Song family master before, and they are more effective..." People in different periods used different cooking methods, but the effects were not as good as those of the Song family. Yinlong didn''t know how much Song Jin had inherited from the head of the Song family, so he decided to keep Centipede for Song Jin to practice. (End of chapter) Chapter 35 wine centipede Chapter 35 Wine Centipede The centipedes collected by the drug store were alive because Song Jin had not yet said how to prepare them, so he did not let anyone deal with them first. Seeing Song Jin squatting in front of the jar containing centipedes, Yinlong asked, "Has the young lady decided how to prepare it?" "If my father were here..." Song Jin''s heart ached when she thought of her serious father, "Aunt Long, I want to make wine. Please help me prepare the rice wine first and use it when the centipedes are dried. The ratio of centipedes to rice wine is ten to one." Preparing medicinal materials with excipients is intended to introduce the properties of the medicine and change or improve its performance. Take the centipede for example. For example, if soaked in wine, it can unblock the pulse, dispel wind and activate collaterals; if it is made with vinegar, it can dissipate blood stasis and treat head wind. There are also three systems of simmering honey wine, which are designed to detoxify through the sweetness of honey, unblock the collaterals with wine, and remove dryness by simmering, so as to enhance the medicinal properties. However, the process of this method is complicated and difficult to perform. Song Jin doesn''t know how. In the entire Song family, only the head of the family, Song Kuan, understood it. After consideration, Song Jin decided to use the wine in the pharmacopoeia. That is the wine roasting method. Just remove the head and feet of the centipede dried in the shade, moisten it with rice wine, and dry it over low heat to make it crispy, easy to crush, and reduce toxicity. Song Jin remembered that Dian Shi''s father in Yi County had recently suffered a stroke and was seeking medical advice. The grade of Dianshi is not good, but he has great power. In the past, they were only subordinate officials of the county captain, but in this dynasty, they replaced the county captain and were in charge of local justice, prisons, and public security. If Jifang Pharmacy follows Dianshi''s line, it won''t have to worry about extortion from Shopkeeper Chai and his ilk. Yinlong asked again: "The centipede is alive, how much should it be dried?" Song Jin ordered: "Have someone take it to dry in the shade until it is eighty or ninety percent dry. Remember to avoid exposure to the sun." All she needs is this command. The boy who was handling the medicinal materials outside knew what to do. The medicine boy first rinses the centipede under running water to remove impurities and secretions, then uses small bamboo pieces with sharp ends to fix the head and tail of the fresh centipede, and then puts it on a large sieve for drying. Fixing it with bamboo pieces will prevent the centipede from curling up and causing uneven drying. The so-called shade drying means placing the medicinal materials in a cool and ventilated place and letting them dry naturally to avoid the loss of active ingredients in the medicinal materials due to sunlight exposure. It has to be said that Song''s medicinal materials were at the forefront of the Great Xia Dynasty in terms of processing technology. Song''s medicinal materials are famous not without reason. Most of the centipedes used as medicine outside are left to dry in the sun, and their medicinal efficacy is always inferior to Song''s medicinal materials. Song Jin helped process the medicinal materials. If you see something wrong, give me some advice. With her control, everyone has fewer chances to make mistakes, and those who listen attentively can learn a lot. Song Jin was not afraid that these people would spread the word. Because apart from the Jin Ling and Yinlong families, the remaining handymen and medicine boys who worked were all bought by Jin Ling from the dental shop and signed death certificates. Work until noon. One day passed. Song Jin wants to go back again. After exiting the drug store through the back door, as soon as he walked out of the alley, he saw a carriage waiting. Qin Chi was standing next to the car. Song Jin''s eyelashes drooped slightly. Seeing Qin Chi reminded her of what happened in the morning. Under what circumstances would a scholar give up the scientific examination? One is lack of money, and the other is qualifications for scientific examinations. Qin Chi made it clear that he was not short of money. So will it be the qualification for registration? In this dynasty, monks, servants, prostitutes and untouchables who were in mourning or had violated criminal responsibilities were not eligible for the imperial examination. Qin Chi was not like these. For a moment, Song Jin really couldn''t figure out the reason. Song Jin quickened his pace and passed by. "Is your husband here to pick me up?" "I forgot to ask Uncle Li to pick you up this morning. I happened to be home from the academy, so I stopped by." Qin Chi explained. Song Jin said politely: "Mr. Lao is worried about me." After saying that, Qin Chi got on the carriage first without waiting for Qin Chi to help her with his hands. Qin Chi''s eyes flashed slightly. It was as if he sensed Song Jin''s alienation. Today Song Jin did realize some problems, that is, she had to keep an appropriate distance from Qin Chi. Song Jinsheng was afraid that if he invested too much emotion, he would not be able to accept it when Qin Chi died. This distance is fine right now. No need to talk to each other, just be friendly. Two people were sitting on a carriage, and they were the only ones in the small carriage. Just reach out and touch each other. "Is your work going well, ma''am?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi heard that people from Huairen Medicine Hall were looking for trouble. Song Jin smiled and said: "As usual, it''s good." "That''s good." Are you unwilling to tell him? Qin Chi sat leisurely, one hand lightly resting on his leg, his index finger tapping every now and then, "If I sign up for the county examination, will my wife support it?" "No matter what my husband decides, Jin will definitely support it." Song Jin replied with a smile. Qin Chi had already expected this, "Then I don''t want my family to know." "I won''t talk about it." Although Song Jin didn''t know why he wanted to hide the Qin family, he still respected his intention and supported his decision, "Well, are you short of money? If so, tell me." Seeing her wealthy appearance, Qin Chi found it particularly interesting and simply asked: "You gave me two thousand taels last time, how much do you plan to give this time?" "It depends on how much you need for the imperial examination." Song Jin answered with a smile, especially emphasizing the word "imperial examination". This statement made it clear that she supported his imperial examination only financially to support his examination fees. Qin Chi smiled and said, "How afraid are you of being taken advantage of?" "Isn''t this an explanation in advance? I''m afraid you might misunderstand." Song Jin knew that Qin Chi was not short of money. Sure enough, Qin Chi refused, "I have money on me." Song Jin didn''t necessarily give him money. Just show your attitude. Anyway, it won''t have much impact on her. Mrs. Huang was involved in daily chores at home, and Song Jin couldn''t get involved in the affairs of Qin Chi Academy. When he first arrived in the county, Song Jin also thought about taking care of Qin Chi''s food, clothing, housing and transportation. But, the first day here. Qin Chi made the arrangements himself. Isn''t it clear that you don''t want her to interfere? Song Jin knew that Qin Chi had a secret. The more secrets a person has, the less he wants outsiders to interfere in his life. Song Jin is very self-aware, so apart from showing off in front of Li and other outsiders, he rarely cares about Qin Chi''s daily life. Qin Chi didn''t know at this time that he had arranged his daily life first, but she had misunderstood him instead. For a long time, Qin Chi felt resentful when he saw that his classmate had clothes and food made by his wife, but he had nothing. I stayed in the county town for a few more days. Everyone is busy during this time. Song Jin works both at the drug store and at home. The preparation of the wine centipede has been completed. Song Jin picked out a part of the same size and excellent quality, allowing Xing Lun to make a fortune. Since the fall of the Song family. In the custom of giving gifts in Huizhou, it is a very honorable thing to have Song''s medicinal materials. In this life, Song Jin decided to let Xing Lun be the person in charge. Naturally, Xing Lun would take the lead in establishing connections. (End of chapter) Chapter 36 Back to Qinjiagou again Chapter 36 Returning to Qinjiagou Qin Chi is preparing for the exam at home. He studied and reviewed all day long, and went to the academy every three days. Song Jin guessed that he was going to ask the teacher for advice. Song Jin had already given Mrs. Huang ten taels of silver. Ask her to help buy some ingredients to replenish Qin Chi''s health. It''s noon today. Song Jin came back from the medicine shop and found Boss Qin coming. According to the date, tomorrow is the academy''s ten-day holiday, and Boss Qin came here specially to pick up Qin Chi. Originally Qin Chi didn''t want to go back. But when she thinks about him not going back, Ms. Li will ask why. Qin Chi decided to go back. Song Jin said he wanted to go back without even thinking about it. On the way home, Boss Qin chatted about some trivial matters at home. The last time Song Xiu and Old Liu had a joke, Old Qin came forward and the family scandal was not publicized. The next day, Song Xiu and Chen Dong''er from the village chief''s house almost fought again. The reason was that Chen Dong''er learned that Qin Mingsong was at home and wandered outside Qin''s house all day. Song Xiu couldn''t hold it back anymore and cursed people when she went out. When the scolding started, Chen Donger said that she had lost her reputation and wanted Qin Mingsong to take responsibility. Still the same thing. Song Jin asked: "How did things end?" "The village chief came and took the person away, and the matter was settled." Boss Qin thought of Chen Dong''er and didn''t know how to describe it. "I don''t know how to evaluate the village chief''s daughter. If I had married her away early, there wouldn''t have been so many things." Song Jin thought of what Chen Donger did in her previous life. I really dont know how to describe it. Qin Chi said slowly: "Chen Dong''er, firstly, he is shameless, and secondly, he is brave. Being entangled with such a person is destined to cause a lot of trouble." "Then isn''t your brother-in-law very unlucky?" Boss Qin is worried about Qin Mingsong. Regardless of how Qin Mingsong should be evaluated, when it comes to Chen Donger, he is indeed one of the unlucky ones. Qin Chi said secretly: "He brought his own misfortune." Song Jin was surprised. I thought he would sympathize with Qin Mingsong on this matter, but in the end...that''s it? "Why are you so surprised? My uncle has been able to establish himself in Fucheng for many years, so he certainly has a lot of scheming skills. I don''t believe he can''t solve Chen Dong''er, but he just doesn''t want to." Qin Chi slowly talked about the reason. Romance is considered a refined thing among literati. We are not afraid that the admirer will be sick, but we are afraid that there will not even be a mosquito. And the crazier the admirer is, if word spreads about it, it will not only not damage the reputation, but will make it even more famous. While chatting, the topic of salvia planting came again. When it comes to planting, Mr. Qins face has a smile on his face. Its only now that Ive grown up that I know how much care goes into planting things. "Then tell me daddy." Qin Chi saw that his father needed someone to listen to him now. "It was Manager Zhou who taught us. He said there are three ways to propagate Salvia miltiorrhiza, namely root division, cuttings and seeds. My family was late in planting it, and Jifang Pharmacy only has seeds." Boss Qin explained the planting in detail, "Because the seeds are small, the covering soil should be shallow so that the seeds cannot be seen..." Even Qin Chi, a layman, learned something. At least I know how the seeds of Salvia miltiorrhiza need to germinate. The germination of Salvia miltiorrhiza seeds has high temperature requirements. Before the seeds germinate, they need to be watered immediately after the soil dries out. The Qin family takes turns watering the medicine fields these days, which is all manual work. Several adults were so tired that they lost weight. Song Jin then looked at Boss Qin and saw that he had indeed lost some weight. But this time they went home in the afternoon, and all the meat sellers in the county had closed their stalls. Only passing by a grocery store, Qin Chi went in and bought a bunch of things. Song Jin thought that he probably went to buy candy and go home to coax the children to work. Seeing that Qin Chi was not impatient at all when listening to Boss Qin''s words, he looked at Boss Qin with smiles and concentration in his eyes. Even though the things they talked about had nothing to do with the scientific examination, but were all daily and trivial matters, Qin Chi was still listening. Thinking of the world and the arrogance of scholars. Just like Qin Mingsong''s innocent posture... People need comparison, and at the same time they are most afraid of comparison. With comparison, we can better distinguish between good and bad. Song Jin was lost in thought, but her eyes kept looking at Qin Chi. Suddenly, Qin Chi turned to look at her. The eyes of the two people met unexpectedly! Song Jin was stunned for a moment, then saw the teasing in Qin Chi''s eyes, her cheeks heated up involuntarily, she sat up straight with a guilty conscience, and turned to look out the car window. Qin Chi chuckled silently. Boss Qin let out a long "ha" and the carriage stopped. This is home! "Wow, big brother is back!" "I saw it, it''s eldest brother who''s back!" This was Qin Daya''s and Sanlang''s happy voice. They ran out to greet them one after another, followed by the twins who were stumbling, and Erya who was swaying when walking. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi came down. A group of children all called Big Brother. Wait for Qin Chi to help Song Jin get out of the car. "Sister-in-law!" "Hello, sister-in-law!" The sweet-tongued Daya called people first, then Erlang and Sanlang. The other three little ones were imitators, and they slurred their words and said, "Okay, okay, sister-in-law. Eat candy!" When Erlang saw Qin Chi carrying something down, he stepped forward enthusiastically: "Brother, let me get it." "Okay, come and get it." Qin Chi didn''t tolerate them and let them work directly, "Anyway, half of these things belong to you." As soon as these words came out, several children''s eyes lit up. Song Jin admired Qin Chi more and more. It is not an easy thing to get along so well with the family and be unanimously liked by the children. Thinking that she and Song Xiu were the only ones left in the family, and now they were enemies, the contrast was really strong. When Song Jin entered the yard, he happened to see Song Xiu chopping vegetables and leaves to feed the chickens. Seeing Song Jin coming back, Song Xiu snorted and turned his head away. Without even calling anyone, he poured the chicken food in the basin to the ground, turned around and entered the kitchen. Song Jin thought it was pretty good. Sure enough, what I said last time was correct. Otherwise, Song Xiu would not have this attitude and would definitely make her cry again and try his best to get benefits from her. Song Jin went back to his room first. Remove the power fence and hang it on the wall. Then he picked up the basin and went out to fill half a basin of water. When Qin Chi came in, Song Jin was just putting on a wet wipe, "Would you like to come and wipe it?" "That''s it, madam." Qin Chizhen came over with a smile on his face and his eyes fell on the wet handkerchief in Song Jin''s hand. Song Jin hesitated and handed it over. Unexpectedly, Qin Chi took it and wiped his face, not caring at all that it was the face towel she had used. After wiping it, he handed it back to her. The clear look in his eyes made people blush and heartbeat. Song Jin hurriedly avoided his gaze and took the washcloth over, "You are tired from the journey, sir. Would you like to take a rest first?" "No, I''m going to see mom later. Do you want to come with me?" Qin Chi guessed that since Mrs. Li hadn''t come over at this moment, she was probably in the embroidery room. "Then wait for me. I just came back to see my mother." Song Jin couldn''t think too much now, and hurriedly put the facekerchief in his hand into the water, rubbed it, then wring it out and opened it to wipe his face. Qin Chi looked at the veil. And she didn''t change it for a new one, nor did she show any disgust. Just use the same one as him. For some reason, his mood became much lighter at this moment. In fact, during this period, Qin Chi also discovered that Song Jin was always keeping a distance from him. (End of chapter) Chapter 37 My husband is so powerful Chapter 37 My husband is so powerful Qin Chi and Song Jin went to see Li. Mrs. Li was very happy to see them, put down her needle and thread and said: "Just come back. Have you eaten? There is food left in the kitchen for the three of you." The Qin family has already had dinner, and they will leave food when they know that Boss Qin is going to the county town to pick up the talent. Qin Chi smiled and said, "Aren''t you anxious to see your mother just after you came back?" When Li heard this, her smile deepened. Then when he saw Song Jin standing beside her gently, his eyes fell on her abdomen intentionally or unintentionally. He sent Qin Chi out and asked in a low voice: "Daughter-in-law, do you have any good news?" "Mom, I...can''t be so fast." Song Jin didn''t notice it. After Li asked, he calculated the date to come to Guishui, but he really didn''t come? Maybe postpone it for a few days. Its not like Ive never been postponed before. Ms. Li just thought she was inexperienced, "You should be more careful at ordinary times. If your menstrual period doesn''t come, ask Dalang to take you to a doctor to check your pulse." "Okay mother." Song Jin replied obediently. Mrs. Li sent Song Jin out for dinner and asked two gentlemen to come with her. Song Jin goes out. I unexpectedly saw a few dejected little ones in the yard. Song Jin asked in a low voice: "What''s wrong? They look like eggplants beaten by frost." "Sister-in-law, the things that eldest brother bought were taken away by grandma." Sanlang wanted to stop crying and said, "Grandma even took away my candy, ugh." The nine-year-old boy struggled not to shed tears. Song Jin raised his hand and touched his head, comforting him: "It''s okay, let your elder brother make up for you later. Anyway, the candy taken away by grandma is your elder brother''s, not yours." "real?" Saburo''s eyes were shining brightly. Song Jinle said: "I won''t lie to you, I promise." Sanlang jumped up with joy and said to Erlang beside him: "Second brother, our work is not in vain." "I didn''t say our work was in vain." Erlang felt a little uncomfortable. The things had been taken away, and it would be difficult for them to want them again. Most likely, the grandma would give them to his uncle and his parents'' family. But he knew that his eldest brother was not someone who would suffer losses. Song Jin went to the kitchen first. There was indeed enough food left in the pot for three people. Bring the meal to the main room. Qin Chi and Boss Qin came in. There is no rule in the farmhouse that there is no eating, talking or sleeping. Song Jin whispered to Qin Chi what Mr. Liu had done. Qin Chi didn''t show anything on his face, he just said that he knew, "Eat first, I will talk to my grandfather about this." "That''s okay." Song Jin concentrated on eating. After Boss Qin and Qin Chi finished eating, Song Jin put away the dishes again. Take it to the kitchen and wash it. Just washed half of it. Song Xiu actually came over and stood at the door of the kitchen with a mocking look on his face, "It''s so quick to work, I should have thought of it a long time ago." Song Jin glanced sideways at Song Xiu and continued what he was doing. Song Xiu''s standing posture is charming and enchanting. Then she suddenly remembered something. Song Xiu raised her head proudly, deliberately pushed out her belly, and walked in with her **** twisted, "Sister, you don''t know how powerful my husband is. He made it impossible for me to get out of bed the first time." "Relying on pig medicine?" Song Jin was speechless when he heard this. Is it possible to say this? Wouldn''t you be embarrassed? When Song Xiu heard about the pig medicine, her smile stiffened a little, "Sister, who told me that it''s not a shadow." "Oh, then you think I heard it wrong." Song Jin put the washed dishes and chopsticks back into the kitchen cabinet one by one. Song Xiu stroked her belly lovingly again, "Sister, do you think I''m pregnant with Fourth Brother''s child now?" Song Jin discovered that Song Xiu had changed a lot. But after exposing the matter of rebirth, Song Xiu no longer pretended to be in front of her. "Oops, I almost forgot. Fourth brother asked you to be a widow. That''s great. That way I don''t have to worry about it. ... But I didn''t consummate the marriage with the patient in my last life. He was already terminally ill, and that thing can''t be used at all. Song Xiu pinched her orchid fingers, covered her lips with an embroidered handkerchief, her eyes were charming, she chuckled, and then gloated: "Sister, you still haven''t escaped the fate of being a widow in this life!" Song Jin thought of Qin Chi''s slender and straight figure and lean and strong waist at night... My face is getting hot! Seeing this, Song Xiu thought that her words had stimulated Song Jin, and she felt particularly proud. It was right to change her marriage in this life, and her life was much better than Song Jin''s. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin looked Song Xiu up and down and said sharply: "How come you behave like a prostitute?" "What nonsense are you talking about?!" Song Xiu''s face suddenly changed, and his voice became sharper, "Song Jin, you must be jealous that I got the fourth brother, so you are talking nonsense-" The next moment. When Song Xiu met Song Jin''s cold eyes, she finally realized that her reaction was too big, more like a guilty conscience, and she quickly suppressed her excitement. It was just that he pressed too hard and his face was a little distorted. Song Xiu''s eyes were gloomy. Song Jin suddenly realized, "Is it a waste of life in the past life?" Song Xiu seemed to have been stepped on again, and screamed excitedly, "Song Jin! If you spread rumors again, I will kill you!" "Why are you so excited? Are you afraid that you won''t attract the Qin family?" Song Jin reminded lightly. It turned out that it was just a test. Song Jin didn''t expect Song Xiu''s reaction to be so intense. Based on her understanding of Song Xiu, she guessed the truth without asking any questions. No wonder I couldn''t find anyone in my previous life, that''s what happened. Let a man cheat her away and sell her to such places. But Song Xiu''s fate was not caused by Song Jin. It makes no sense for Song Xiu to hate her after she was reborn. Song Xiu could no longer care about so much. After hearing Song Jin''s reminder, she hurriedly walked outside the kitchen to check. Sure enough, I saw the Qin family. Under the eaves, I looked towards the kitchen. Just like the little Liu from the second room, her gossipy little eyes are so bright. "Fourth brother and sister, are you making trouble for the elder man''s wife again?" Xiao Liu came up to her and looked towards the kitchen door, "Tell me, what rumor did the elder man''s wife make about you?" "No, second sister-in-law, don''t make random guesses." Song Xiu is not stupid. There are some things that outsiders must never know. Song Xiu rolled his eyes and immediately thought of how to throw dirty water on Song Jin. Pulling Xiao Liu aside, Song Xiu whispered: "Second sister-in-law, it''s not like last time. The last time my sister spread rumors that the fourth brother was inhumane, it scared my mother and I. ... Later, I wanted to ask her to question her, but she went to the county seat early. This time Shes back, why dont I come over and ask. "What? You said it was the elder man''s wife who spread the rumor last time?" Xiao Liu opened her mouth in shock. "Wow!" A large basin of dishwashing water was poured on Song Xiu''s body. Xiao Liu stood relatively close, and when the hem of her clothes was affected by the water, she jumped far away with an exclamation. Song Xiu was splashed like a drowned rat. Looking back, Song Jin was standing at the door of the kitchen holding a wooden basin with cold eyes. "Song Jin! You are so vicious, you want to throw dirty water on me for no reason?" Song Xiu''s voice was sharp and angry. Song Jin sneered coldly, "It''s better for me to throw dirty water on someone openly than for someone to throw dirty water on me behind my back." When Xiao Liu heard this, he understood again! It turned out that the four younger siblings were throwing dirty water on the elder man''s wife just now. Chapter 38 Your wife splashed dirty water on me Chapter 38: Your wife splashed dirty water on me The thatched house in the backyard of the Qin family. Qin Chi originally wanted to teach Erlang and Sanlang how to wash cigarettes before it got completely dark. Washing smoke is a necessary process for making Hui ink. Qin Chi''s method was simple. He poured all the cigarette ashes collected by the brothers into a basin of water and told them to settle overnight. The fine soot will float to the surface the next day, and the coarse soot will sink to the bottom of the basin. At that time, gently scoop up the floating ash. Then put it in a cool place and let it sit for a year. Qin Chi just finished explaining the matter. Qin Daya ran over to report the news. "Brother! Sister-in-law and aunt are quarreling. Come over and have a look." "I''ll go over and take a look. Erlang, please clean up this place." Qin Chi quickly left the thatched house. "Okay, brother, go quickly, I will support you and sister-in-law in a moment!" Erlang urged Qin Chi to leave quickly. Saburo had dropped his tools and ran outside. When Qin Chi arrived, he happened to see Sanlang holding a broom in front of Song Jin, facing Song Xiu who was almost going crazy. Song Xiu''s whole body was soaked with water, and water drops were falling from her hair. But Song Jin was intact, standing in front of the kitchen door. The second aunt stood aside with bright eyes. As soon as he saw Sanlang''s posture, Xiao Liu stepped forward and slapped him on the head, "You little brat, why are you joining in the fun? Get out of the way." "Mom, what do you know? I have to protect my sister-in-law for my eldest brother." Saburo held a broom and stood up like a general. Song Jin pressed his little head, dumbfounded. "What are you doing? What are you doing here?! I haven''t lived in peace for a day. I really don''t know what evil my old Qin family has done. I married two troublemakers." Old Mrs. Liu walked out of the main room and started to curse. Just as Old Liu put his hands on his hips and was about to continue scolding. Asking Old Man Qin to push her from behind, "Get out of the way, you''re blocking my way." Old Liu''s expression was particularly funny and wonderful. He opened his mouth several times to curse, but was frightened by Old Man Qin''s fist, so he could only step aside in frustration. It perfectly explains what is meant by one thing descending from another. When old man Qin came, no one dared to say a word. Qin Chi pulled the funny Sanlang aside, and then Shi Shiran stood next to Song Jin, smiling but not smiling and asked: "What joke did the little aunt make this time?" "Damn you..." Song Xiu was so angry that her teeth itched, "Your wife splashed dirty water on me." "My wife has always had a good temper. If she can throw water on you, you must have done something weird." As soon as Qin Chi said this, the rest of the Qin family thought it made sense. Even old man Qin looked at Song Xiu with suspicion. Song Xiu was so angry that he was about to defend himself. "I know this! I know!" Xiao Liu, the troublemaker, jumped out first and started talking excitedly. "The fourth younger brother and sister just told me that last time it was the elder brother''s wife who spread rumors that my uncle cannot be humane! Then, the older brother''s wife suddenly poured dirty water on the fourth younger brother and sister, saying that the fourth younger brother and sister were pouring dirty water on her behind her back..." This dirty water comes and goes. If you don''t listen carefully, you will get confused. But everyone suddenly realized. Sure enough, it was Song Xiu who was causing trouble again. Facing the strange looks from everyone, Song Xiu couldn''t stand it any longer and stomped back into the house angrily. "unlucky!" Old Mrs. Liu took a sip. Immediately, Old Liu set his sights on Song Jin again. She was still thinking about Song Jin''s dowry money, but she was not at home, so she never found the opportunity. Qin Chi''s eyes darkened. Qin Chi was all too familiar with Old Liu''s calculating eyes. Immediately, Qin Chi smiled casually and said: "Nai, while everyone is here, it''s time to divide the gifts I bought." "How to divide it? Naturally, the good things should be put away first, and then used during the New Year and the holidays." Old Liu glared at Qin Chi angrily. This is why she doesn''t like her eldest grandson. Like Mr. Li, he has been disliked since he was a child. Not only was Qin Chi not angry, but his smile deepened, "Don''t you know, grandma? Most of the food I bought this time is food, but you can''t keep it for too long, or it will go bad." Don''t wait for old Liu to speak. Qin Chi continued: "I saved my money and bought good wine for my grandfather. Don''t hide it and send it to your parents'' house like before. My uncle has a group of children and grandchildren, and there is no need for me to show filial piety." "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I use your father''s wine to honor your uncle?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Old Liu raised his finger and pointed at Qin Chi, his hands shaking with anger. Under Old Man Qin''s questioning gaze, he might be frightened or guilty. Qin Chi just glanced at Old Liu helplessly and sighed: "Okay, it''s whatever grandma says. If you don''t have it, there won''t be anything. Maybe I remembered it wrong." Once these words come out, it is better not to say them. Anyone would think that this is because the grandson is helpless and does not want to disobey the old man. Song Jin was extremely impressed. It is not uncommon in the village for the younger members of the family to go home shopping and the elders to put them away. The things were put away by Mrs. Liu and she was never seen taking them out. "Da Lang, do you have a gift for me?" Xiao Liu spoke without fear of death. Qin Chi nodded, "Yes, the whole family has them, but it''s a pity that grandma took them all back to the house." "I said, Mom, just take your share, why are you taking ours too?" Xiao Liu was dissatisfied. Sanlang was about to echo, but Erlang, who had just arrived for a while, covered his mouth, and his sentence turned into "Yeah, yeah, yeah". The Qin family is quite special in the entire Qinjiagou. Old Man Qin has seen the world and set the family rules early. The son and daughter-in-law only need to pay half of the money they earn privately to the public, and the rest can be kept by themselves. As for the money earned by his grandchildren, Old Man Qin asked them to keep it themselves. In the eyes of old man Qin, children can''t make much money. But who knew that the eldest grandson was smart and could make his own Hui ink in exchange for money, and he also supported several children in the family. "Ms. Liu, hurry up and take out the things and divide them up. If you let me see your greedy junior''s things again, don''t blame me for punishing you." When Old Man Qin thought about how this old guy dared to secretly take the things that his eldest grandson respected him back to his parents'' house, he felt itchy and wanted to beat him. I just saw that Old Liu was feeling guilty, so he must have done it before, probably more than once or twice. Under pressure. Mrs. Liu cursed quietly and returned to the house. After taking out most of the things, I still withheld a small part despite the risk of being beaten. Qin Chi saw it, but didn''t say anything more. After dividing all the things, he took Song Jin back to the house. "My lady, you didn''t suffer a loss this time, did you?" Qin Chi asked with a smile. Song Jin knew that he did it on purpose, and glanced at him sideways with her phoenix eyes, "This time I let my husband see the joke again." "Look what the lady said." Even if Qin Chi thinks this in his heart, he can''t admit it on his face, "My husband just cares about my wife, I have no other meaning." "Yes, yes, whatever your husband says is whatever it is." Song Jin answered perfunctorily. "Why do your words sound so familiar?" Qin Chi walked into the house and sat down leisurely. Song Jin took out the clean bedding from the cabinet and began to make the bed skillfully. Of course you are familiar with it! Isn''t it his tone of scheming against old Liu? Chapter 39 Someone is making trouble again Chapter 39 Someone is causing trouble again Song Xiu returned to the room and was about to be **** to death. I originally thought of showing off in front of Song Jin, but after showing off, I would ask her for the four thousand taels of silver notes back. As a result, before getting down to business, Song Jin threw dirty water all over him! Song Xiu changed out of his wet clothes. "Tuk-tuk." There was a knock on the door. Song Xiu asked in a rude tone: "Who is it?" "It''s me, I have something to tell you." Old Liu''s voice came. Song Xiu curled her lips in disgust. If Mrs. Liu hadn''t been Qin Mingsong''s biological mother, Song Xiu would have felt dirty even looking at her. In Song Xiu''s heart, before anything happened to the Song family, people like Old Liu didn''t even have a chance to treat her as a dog. Song Xiu went to open the door. Mr. Liu entered sideways and said with a straight face, "What are you doing when you open the door so late?" "Mom, I''m changing clothes." Song Xiu was fed up with old Mrs. Liu in her heart, but she still greeted him with a smile on her face. "You think of a way to get your sister''s dowry money." Old Liu demanded shamelessly. Song Xiu said with a bitter look, "What can I do? My sister and I have fallen out, and it''s not like you don''t know." Old Liu''s turbid eyes were full of sternness, "You are her sister, why are you asking her for some money?" Song Xiu just wanted to roll her eyes. This old guy really dares to say that. "Mom, you said she''s just a sister, not a mother." Song Xiu couldn''t help but retort. Old Liu was so angry that he wanted to hit Song Xiu with his palm, "How dare you talk back?" Song Xiu stepped aside. Song Xiu, who got angry, pushed Old Liu away and said, "Old immortal, I gave you face before, so you dare to come to me and act arrogant? With an old pious woman like you, you used to carry my shoes Not worthy of it! Previously, I wanted to please Mr. Liu. Its to marry Qin Mingsong! Now that the goal was achieved, Song Xiu had one less worry in her heart. Song Xiu didn''t have a good temper to begin with, and he had long been dissatisfied with the old Liu family during this period. Today she finally understood. The eldest man in this family is Old Man Qin! Mr. Liu didn''t even dare to fart in front of Mr. Qin! Old Liu''s face was very surprised. Ever since Song Xiu came to the Qin family, he had been trying to please her. She did whatever she said. She never dared to resist, but she suddenly rebelled? "You bitch, you are a disobedient and unfilial person, you dare to push your elders!" Old Liu rushed forward and wanted to beat Song Xiu. Naturally, Song Xiu would not be beaten obediently. So there was an old man and a young man, you pinched me, and I pinched you and started fighting. Song Xiu is really brave. The noise is getting louder and louder. Song Jin heard that Qin Daya had come to report the news, and when he went over with Qin Chi, Old Liu and Song Xiu had already been separated. Song Xiu had disheveled hair and a slap mark on his face. She looked like she was being bullied by an evil mother-in-law. She was hiding away and crying. Anyone who saw her felt pitiful. This can make old Liu mad to death. "Boss! Tie this **** up quickly and hang him up! Beat him hard!" The person holding Old Liu next to him was Boss Qin. Boss Qin pretended not to hear. So Lao Liu asked Qin Laoer to fight Song embroidery. Qin Laoer shook his head desperately, "Mom! It''s enough for you to bully me alone. How can I, a grown man, have the nerve to hit my sister-in-law? If word spreads, will I still be a human being?" Old Mrs. Liu''s eyes widened, "You are blind, I was bullied! It was your mother who asked her to beat me, please beat me back!" "I''m not blind." Qin Laoer shook his head into a wavy drum. Old Liu looked at Qin Laosan again. Qin Laosan did well and pulled Lin out, obviously trusting Song Xiu more than anyone else. Isn''t this clear? One was in a state of utter disarray, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that he had been beaten badly and was crying and crying; the other had clean hair, intact clothes, and was full of curses. Song Jin saw this situation. I didnt feel that Old Liu was bullying Song Xiu, but I suspected that Song Xiu had set Old Liu up against him. Song Xiu saw Song Jin appear. As if seeing a life-saving straw, she rushed to Song Jin and cried heartbreakingly: "Sister, please save me... Wuwuwu, my mother-in-law bullied me. She took away my dowry money without saying a word, and forced me to get yours. Wuwuwu, I refused...she was going to beat me to death..." Song Xiu cried intermittently about Lao Liu''s crimes. The Qin family present were silent. Even Little Liu looked at Old Liu with suspicion. Because Old Liu is really capable of doing this kind of thing. "Fart! You little bitch..." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! This made Mrs. Liu so angry that she turned blue, pointed at Song Xiu with a ferocious look on her face, and wanted to scold her several times for confusing right and wrong, but she was so excited that she could not speak. When he saw old man Qin coming over with an angry look on his face! Old Mrs. Liu was so anxious that she rolled her eyes. He actually fainted from anger! The biggest loss that Old Liu has ever suffered in his life is probably today. "mother!" "Mother-in-law!" Boss Qin and others exclaimed. Old Qin shouted angrily: "Boss, please move your mother back to your room! Second brother, go ask your third uncle to come over and give your grandma a look." Boss Qin and others followed suit. What followed was a rush. Lin went to the kitchen to boil water. Xiao Liu and Li followed to the main room. Serve the comatose old Mr. Liu. Xiao Liu complained softly: "Sister-in-law, how could I do this to steal my daughter-in-law''s dowry? If this scandal spreads, will my son still get married?" "This won''t get out." Mrs. Li pointed to the second room, "As long as you take care of the second room, everything will be fine." Xiao Liu looked up. Then I saw several children of my own family, poking their heads towards this side. She went up and ordered the little ones not to come out. inside the house. Old man Qin looked at Song Jin and Song Xiu. Song Xiu looked miserable now, but in fact, she only had some superficial injuries. Then the old man Qin looked at Qin Chi who was standing aside, "Da Lang came to guard the door. I have something to talk to them in private." Qin Chi''s black eyes glanced at Song Jin. Seeing that she was not reluctant, he agreed and retreated to the door. Song Xiu tugged at her sleeves uneasily. "Eldest girl, second girl, do you remember why you married into the Qin family in the first place?" Old Man Qin asked seriously. Song Xiu''s face turned pale. A look of shame appeared on Song Jin''s face, and he said apologetically: "It was us who caused trouble for Uncle Qin." "sorry." Song Xiu lowered his head as if aggrieved, tears falling down his face. "Second girl, please don''t cry." Old Qin''s face was still serious, and he didn''t mean to accuse him. It was more like the attitude of an elder towards a junior. "According to the situation of the two of them, they should have kept a low profile. Now that the eldest girl has gone to the county seat, I, an old man, can''t take care of her, and I have nothing to say. On the other hand, the second girl, how many things have happened since she entered the house?" Song Jin was unable to refute this. There was nothing in the previous life. This life has indeed been too noisy. Ever since they came to the Qin family, the two sisters had been having troubles about changing their marriage, and then the troubles came one after another, even though the old man Qin suppressed it to keep the family scandal from being publicized. But that doesnt mean it didnt happen! Song Xiu covered her mouth with both hands and cried even more sadly. This is not fake crying, but real crying. Chapter 40 Old Liu was beaten Chapter 40 Old Liu was beaten "Sometimes, I can''t help but doubt whether I did the right thing or the wrong thing by hastily deciding to get married to Mr. Song. After all, the Qin family is just a farmer, and the temple is too small to accommodate two giant Buddhas..." As soon as Old Man Qin said these words. But Song Xiu was frightened! "Uncle Qin, no, father-in-law, you can''t drive me away. I have married my fourth brother, and we are all his..." Song Xiu was so shocked that she began to speak incoherently. Song Jin stepped forward and blocked her mouth. Thinking of Song Xiu''s shameless words in the kitchen, Song Jin was really afraid of saying something stupid again from her mouth. No matter how she and Song Xiu fell out. In the eyes of outsiders, the two are still one. For example, if something big happened to Song Xiu, others would still look for Song Jin as a matter of course. Song Jin said sincerely: "Tonight is Xiu''er''s mischief. The dowry robbery is completely false. Please don''t mind Uncle Qin. I will strictly control her in the future to prevent her from making jokes again." Old Qin was silent. Song Jin didn''t respond for a long time. Song Jin called him uncle Qin instead of grandfather. What does this mean? This means that Song Jin never regarded herself as the real wife of the Qin family. She was talking on an equal footing with the old man Qin, not the grandson-in-law. It would be impossible for Old Man Qin to take advantage of her. "Xiu''er was a bit noisy. There was only one thing she did well, which was to be most filial to Aunt Qin. I''m afraid there was a misunderstanding about what happened today." Song Jin took out a thousand-tael silver note from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Old Man Qin with a gentle attitude, "It''s not a small gesture, it''s disrespectful. Song Xiu, please take care of me these days." "Girl, who do you think my old man is?" Old Qin didn''t reach out to take it. Song Jin''s attitude became more sincere, "Uncle Qin, this is just a little thought of this junior. Really, you don''t need to think too much about it." Taking a few steps forward, Song Jin thrust the banknote into Old Qin''s hand with a smile. "You..." Old man Qin repeatedly excused himself. In the end, Song Jin couldn''t resist it, so she reluctantly accepted it, saying that he was just keeping it for Song Jin first, and when she needed money in the future, she could ask him for it. Song Jin responded repeatedly. There was a tacit understanding. There is no reason to take back the money given away. Song Jin watched Old Qin go out. Then, Song Jin turned around and slapped Song Xiu in the face, "Idiot!" "Song Jin, you-" Song Xiu looked angrily at Song Jin. Song Jin said coldly: "Do you think no one can see your little tricks?" "I don''t have any!" Song Xiu retorted with a guilty conscience. Song Jin snorted coldly, "Who is Uncle Qin? He has been with Old Liu for decades. He knows whether Old Liu has lied." This family seems ordinary, but in fact there is no stupid person. If I had to pick one, it would be Old Liu. Song Jin knew that if he didn''t speak clearly, Song Xiu''s brain might not necessarily understand the seriousness. Song Xiu made old Mr. Liu faint with anger today. As long as this matter is spread, the Qin family has every reason to abandon Song Xiu without any evidence. Song Xiu was really frightened now. Song Xiu grabbed Song Jin''s sleeve and said, "Sister, can''t you just ignore me?" "You owe me money, please pay it back first?" Song Jin''s words made Song Xiu''s eyes wander, and he forced him to the table aside, forcing Song Xiu to write down a thousand tael IOU. Song Xiu sarcastically said, "When did Song Jin become such a philistine?" "It''s you who taught me a truth. It''s useless for us to talk about feelings. Only money is the most real thing." Song Jin put the IOU in his sleeve pocket. Walking to the door, Song Jin turned back and looked at Song Xiu indifferently, "You don''t think this is a simple IOU, do you? If you dare to plot against me again in the future, or make me unhappy, I will send you the IOU." The largest brothel in Huizhou Prefecture, let them come to pay you." Song Xiu''s eyes widened in disbelief. "Song Jin! Are you plotting against me?!" He wanted to stand up and grab Song Jin''s IOU. Song Jin walked out of the house first. I happened to see Qin Chi standing on the steps in front of the house. The silver moonlight fell on him, making his slender and straight figure even more mysterious in the night. Qin Chi heard the familiar footsteps and turned around slowly, "Madam, are you done?" "I''m done." Song Jin''s coldness disappeared, and she was the gentle and demure little lady she used to be. Side by side with Qin Chi, we went back to the room together. Song Xiu rushed out and saw the harmonious backs of the two of them. I don''t know why, but there is a strong feeling of jealousy and unwillingness in my heart. This sick man was not so kind to her in her previous life! Why is it different if the sister is replaced? Qin Chi suddenly turned around. Qin Chi happened to bump into Song Xiu''s jealous and twisted face. It was not clear under the shadow of the night, but Qin Chi still sensed Song Xiu''s malice. Wait until you get back inside. Qin Chi turned around and closed the door, "Madam, be careful about that concubine of yours." "What did you find?" Song Jin asked casually. Qin Chi said truthfully: "I just saw her standing at the door and her mood was not right." "It''s normal to be wrong." Song Jin had long known that Song Xiu was full of malice toward him. Its just that Song Jin knows Song Xiu better than anyone else. Song Xiu was taught by her aunt since she was a child, and she learned some unappreciable housekeeping methods. She has a big heart but a limited vision. My mind is limited to love. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! As long as Song Xiu is trapped in Qinjiagou, there will be no trouble. Song Jin gave Old Man Qin a thousand taels today just for testing. Song Jin was very satisfied with this result. As long as it''s for the money. She was afraid that Old Man Qin would talk about his kindness to her. From this point, Song Jin also discovered that Old Man Qin had gained some knowledge and was more open-minded than other people in the village, but he still had limitations and was not a scheming type of person. As Qin Chi said, he is a pragmatic person. Qin Chi went to the main room. Qin''s third uncle once worked as an apprentice in a medical clinic for several years. Later, he stopped studying because he was not talented enough, but he could treat some minor illnesses and injuries without any problem. If the case is serious, he will recommend sending it to the county. At this time, old Mr. Liu had woken up. He was originally knocked out by the gas, but after regaining his breath, the person who came to wake up. Qin''s third uncle asked: "Tell me why you fainted suddenly?" "Uncle, the older this person gets, the more angry she becomes. Why don''t I just say a few words to her?" Old Qin took the matter personally. Ask Boss Qin to serve tea to the third uncle. After hearing this, the three brothers present knew that this matter had to be suppressed and not allowed to be known to outsiders. Qin''s third uncle lectured in a low voice: "You are still noisy even though you are quite old. You are not afraid of the jokes of your children and grandchildren." "I don''t want to either, but she secretly hid the wine that Dalang honored me with, and wanted to take it to her parents'' house. It''s not like you don''t know that her brother is someone who can only get in but not get out." Old man Qin said this. Qin''s third uncle no longer had any doubts. Ask Boss Qin and the others to take good care of their parents, and the third uncle will leave with the small medicine box. Old Qin was worried and asked him to send the person back. No more outsiders. Old Man Qin glanced at everyone, "You should understand that family scandals should not be made public. I don''t want to hear any gossip outside." Everyone nodded. Little Liu received the most attention, "Don''t worry, Dad, I''ll keep what happened tonight private and won''t talk about it to anyone else. My second husband is planning to get married in two years." This truth is heartbreaking to hear. "Okay, it''s all gone." Old Man Qin waved everyone away. Old Mrs. Liu pretended to be dead on the bed, but she was also frightened. When Old Qin was young, he would hit people if he did not go his way. That is to say, you should cultivate your moral character and cultivate your character in old age. Old man Qin poured a pot of wine, which Qin Chi had just bought. He drank half the pot before asking: "Tell me, what''s going on?" "It''s Song Xiu''s little bitch..." "I want to listen to the truth and not hide anything." Old Qin''s words made Old Liu tremble with fright. Not daring to hide anything anymore, I explained everything in a few words. Old Man Qin found the banknotes from Old Liu. Then he skillfully pulled up the quilt and covered old Liu''s body, raised his fists and beat people. The pain made Mrs. Liu whine in bed and beg for mercy. Finally, Old Man Qin gave a stern warning: "Stop causing trouble for the Song sisters in the future, and let me know that you are the one who started the trouble. See how I deal with you." "No, never again..." Old Mrs. Liu said this, but she hated Song Xiu in her heart. When he was hating, Song Jin also hated him. Do you think she doesn''t know? What the old man values ??most is Song Jin. If Song Jin hadn''t taken the initiative in this matter, he wouldn''t have been so cruel! Chapter 41 I won’t bother you tonight Chapter 41 I wont bother you tonight The next day. Both Lao Liu and Song Xiu did not step out of the house, citing illness. Three meals a day are brought to the room. The news of Old Liu''s fainting has spread in the village. Several women from the clan came to visit, all bringing eggs or brown sugar. They were received by Mr. Liu and Mr. Lin. Song Jin was just showing off. Less than half an hour before and after. This is done so that no one can find fault. After all, as a grandson''s daughter-in-law, if her elder is ill and bedridden, Song Jin will inevitably be criticized if she doesn''t take a look at her at home. Qin Chi disappeared early in the morning. It is said that he went to water the medicinal fields with a few strong laborers in his family. Of course, Qin Chi was just going for a walk, not doing the hard work of carrying water. After returning, they went to the thatched house in the backyard, still carrying Erlang and Sanlang to make Hui ink together. Song Jin came out of the main room and went to find Li. Li is embroidering a picture of Guanyin giving birth to a child. She uses double-sided embroidery, which makes the embroidery lifelike. Song Jin had learned embroidery, but he was not good at it. She has always admired people with special skills. It''s just a pity that such a person will die next year. Song Jin hoped that she could get pregnant as soon as possible, so that at least the Li family would have a grandson or granddaughter, so that they would not be overly sad after Qin Chi died of illness. As long as nothing happens to Li, Boss Qin will not disappear. It was rare to have peace this morning. In the afternoon, Mr. Qin took the car and took the couple to the county seat. It was already evening when we arrived at the county seat. Boss Qin hurried back to Qinjiagou. Mrs. Huang came over, helped pack things, and boiled a large pot of hot water. Song Jin took a comfortable bath, and then it was Qin Chi''s turn. When Song Jin just lay on the bed and wanted to rest. The door was pushed open from outside. Song Jin was surprised: "Aren''t you going to sleep in the west wing tonight?" Ever since Qin Chi decided to take the county examination, he spent most of the night living in the west wing. There are only a few days until the county examination. Shouldn''t he live there? "I won''t read tonight." Qin Chi didn''t say that he stayed in the west wing because he was reading too late and was afraid of disturbing her when he went back to his room. After taking off his shoes and going to bed, Qin Chi lay down on his side, and naturally stretched out his arms to hold the soft and fragrant person in his arms. Seeing her stiffness, he patted her back gently as if to comfort him. "Go to bed early and I won''t bother you tonight." "oh." Song Jin really didn''t have that intention. Finding a comfortable sleeping position in his arms, Song Jin closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep soon. Qin Chi felt mixed emotions in his heart when he heard her even breathing. He actually fell asleep like this, so heartless. Late at night, there was a knock on the door. There was a rapid knock on the door, it was obvious that something had happened. Qin Chi didn''t want to wake up Song Jin with the knocking on the door, so he pulled the quilt up and covered her ears. He gently got out of bed, put on a coat and walked out. The knocking on the door has stopped. Qin Chi approached the door and heard someone talking outside. "Who are you? Why are you knocking on this door?" The person who asked the question was Lao Huo. The answer was the anxious voice of a strange woman, "Sorry, I disturbed you next door. I came to see... I came to see Mrs. Song if there is something urgent." Squeak. The door opens. Under the moonlight, Qin Chi stood in front of the door. Qin Chi recognized the person with just one glance, "Are you the shopkeeper Jin from Jifang Pharmacy?" "Yes." Jin Ling felt a little nervous when she saw Qin Chi again. She remembered that the young lady said that he didn''t know her identity and only thought that she found a job in a drug store. Unless there is an emergency. Jin Ling would not come over rashly to find someone. Qin Chi asked: "Come in." "well." Jin Ling hurried in. Father Zhou stayed outside to guard the carriage. There is a lantern hanging on the carriage. The light shines on Zhou''s father''s face, and you can see the haggard look. Something big must have happened. Qin Chi brought Jin Ling to the hall. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Then, Qin Chi picked up the wick of the lamp, and the hall suddenly became much brighter. At this time, Qin Chi did not go to the east wing to wake up Song Jin. Qin Chi said calmly: "My wife has just fallen asleep. If you have something urgent, can you tell me something?" "this" Jin Ling did not expect Qin Chi to make this request. But she couldn''t blame Qin Chi. After all, Qin Chi was Song Jin''s husband. If a stranger came to see his wife late at night, it was normal for him to ask questions. If you don''t ask anything, that would be suspicious. Jin Ling hesitated again and again, gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, something happened to the drug store. Two stewards were framed and imprisoned. I came here to ask Mrs. Song if there is a way to save people." "What was the name of the person who had the accident?" Qin Chi thought that something had happened to Jifang Pharmacy just one day after returning to Qinjiagou. Jin Ling thought for a while and felt that there was nothing to hide. "It''s my son Zhou Wei and the son of the second shopkeeper Xing Lun. When they went to collect medicinal materials, they were framed for theft." As soon as I heard about this, I knew someone was causing trouble. Qin Chi knew those two people. Qin Chi even knew the origin of the little medicine boy in Jifang Pharmacy. "You haven''t communicated with the Yamen people?" Qin Chi suspected that they had communicated, but couldn''t find a way out. Sure enough, Jin Ling said tiredly: "We have been running around all day, but we can''t get in at all. After spending some money, we only found out that there is someone plotting against us." "Is it directed at you? Or my wife?" Qin Chi suddenly asked this question, which made Jin Ling''s face suddenly wary. Jin Ling noticed that Qin Chi had an upright face and an upright look, so she had to tell what she found out, "The other party said that someone paid to renovate Jifang Pharmacy to make it impossible for us to stay in Yixian County." Hearing this, Qin Chi started to think. After a while, Qin Chi said: "You go back first. I will mention this matter to my wife tomorrow morning. There is no point in waking her up now. The yamen is not on duty at night. It will only make my wife worry for one more night." Jin Ling had nothing to say. They came to discuss with Song Jin late at night, but they really had no choice. After all, Song Jin is their backbone. When they couldn''t solve this kind of thing, they would subconsciously think of Song Jin, thinking that if they told her, the problem would be solved. Qin Chi stopped him. Jin Ling and Zhou''s father could only return without success. But they didn''t know that after they left, Qin Chi immediately called someone to investigate the matter. At the same time, Qin Chi did not return to the east wing. Just stay in the west wing to rest. Before dawn, he got the investigation results sent by Lao Huo through the secret door. Early in the morning, the soft sunlight penetrates the morning fog and falls on the earth like silk. Gently awakened the sleeping world, including Song Jin who woke up from his sleep. Song Jin didn''t see Qin Chi when he got up. After dressing and freshening up, I left the room. I saw Qin Chi dressed neatly in the hall. Seeing her coming out, Qin Chi ordered Mrs. Huang to serve breakfast. "Come and eat." Qin Chi set out the dishes. Song Jin sat down and asked, "You got up early?" Chapter 42 Something happened to Jifang Chapter 42 Something happened to Jifang "I got up because something happened last night. I was worried that I would wake you up if I went back to the room, so I went to the west wing to spend the night." Qin Chi waited for Mrs. Huang to put the food on the table, and when Song Jin had almost finished eating, he took out a handkerchief, wiped his lips, and said: "I have some bad news, do you want to hear it?" "What is it?" Song Jin''s heart skipped a beat. Qin Chi did not give in, and told what happened last night when Shopkeeper Jin came to see them. He also mentioned that Xing Lun and Zhou Wei were arrested and are now being held in the Yamen Prison. "I saw that my wife was already asleep, so I took it upon myself to stop Shopkeeper Jin. You won''t blame me, right?" "No, my husband is also thinking about me." Song Jin didn''t even raise his eyelids when he answered. I don''t know why, I think he is disgusting, but I can''t dislike him. Song Jin didn''t expect to hear the bad news when he woke up. He immediately put down his bowls and chopsticks and hurriedly took the mule cart next door to Old Li Tou to the medicine shop. At this time, Song Jin was different from his previous life. The only people available are Jin Ling and Yin Long. If something happens to them right now, it will have a huge impact on her future plans. Come to Jifang Pharmacy. The front door of the store is closed. Song Jin entered through the back door of the alley. When he entered, he found that the atmosphere was wrong and gloomy. "Little miss, you are finally here!" Yinlong stepped forward with red and swollen eyes. Jin Ling''s appearance was not much better. Everyone is very haggard, probably because they haven''t rested for a long time. Song Jin asked: "Tell me what happened specifically." Jin Ling said hoarsely: "Yesterday morning, a medicine farmer sent a message saying that there was a batch of medicinal materials in Kaoshantun for us to collect. Wei''er and Alun happened to be free, so they went together..." On the way back after receiving the medicinal materials. Suddenly he was stopped by an official, saying that the stolen goods were stolen. That batch of medicinal materials that had just been collected had somehow become stolen goods. After hearing this, Song Jin knew that someone was secretly playing tricks on Jifang Pharmacy. "During this period of time, we have not offended anyone except Huairen Pharmacy, and the owner behind Huairen is the Zeng family in Fucheng." Song Jin was wondering if there was any room for maneuver in this matter. She had heard before that a girl from the eldest daughter of the Zeng family had a beautiful face and was sent to be a concubine to the prefect Yang Lingyu two years ago. With the prefect of Huizhou on the line, the Zeng family became increasingly unrestrained in their behavior outside. Song Jin once again felt helpless. Its really a dilemma where no one is available. But cultivating manpower cannot be achieved in a short time. Song Jin thought for a moment and said, "Aunt Ling, please contact Shun''an and tell them that I want to meet Shopkeeper Tao." Jin Ling and others were shocked. Jin Ling asked: "The young lady wants to ask Shun''an for help?" "We have interests involved with Shun''an, so it is logical to ask them for help. Otherwise, it may affect subsequent transactions. I think... they won''t mind helping us solve some troubles." According to Song Jin''s idea, at most, he should give up some of his interests when negotiating. Problems that can be solved with money are not big problems. Jin Ling did not go out immediately, but explained bitterly: "It''s not that we haven''t thought about this way to Shun''an, but we just didn''t have good luck. When we went to the bookstore to find someone, the clerk said that shopkeeper Tao happened to have gone to Fucheng. I left a message and said that I would wait for someone to come back. They came to inform us. No one from Shun''an has come to notify me yet. This means that shopkeeper Tao may not have returned to Yi County yet. At this time, there was a knock on the door outside the store. "Is Shopkeeper Jin here? I''m Xiao Chu, the clerk from Shun''an Bookstore." A clear young voice came from outside. Jin Ling hurriedly opened the door. When there were outsiders, Song Jin picked up the power fence and put it on again. Xiao Chu said a few words to Jin Ling and then left. Jin Ling left the shop door ajar and came back in a hurry and said: "Little miss, there''s a message from Shun''an, asking you to come over." "Okay, I''ll go now." Song Jin strode out. Jin Ling hurriedly caught up again, "I''ll go with you." "No, I can do it alone." This was not the first time for Song Jin to go to the bookstore. When he went there, he was familiar with the route. He did not see shopkeeper Tao, but Xiao Chu led the way to the teahouse where he had previously received guests. There is a faint scent of sandalwood filling the tea room. There are still six landscape screens in the middle. There is a cup of warm tea on a tea table. "Here you go, please sit down." A low male voice came from the other side of the screen. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin bowed to the screen and then sat down, but did not touch the tea bowl on the table. The man asked: "Are you here for the two stewards of Jifang?" "I really can''t hide anything from you." Song Jin knew that Jifang Pharmacy was likely to be under the surveillance of the forces behind Shun''an, but he didn''t expect that he would speak frankly when he came, without any intention of covering up. Since he was so open-minded, Song Jin didn''t talk nonsense. Going straight to the point means asking the other party to take action. Demanding that the truth be found out and the person rescued head and tail. There is no free lunch in the world. When you ask someone to help, you naturally have to offer a price. Song Jin said bluntly: "For this reason, our previous medicinal material transactions can be reduced by 10% from the original market price." "For the sake of two subordinates, you are very generous." This voice turned out to be a bit strange. It had an inexplicable sour taste, but Song Jin soon suspected that he had heard it wrong. This is beneficial to both sides. There is no reason for the other party to refuse. Besides, it may be difficult for Jifang Pharmacy to resolve this matter. To the forces behind this man, it should be a small matter. Song Jin didn''t know. Qin Chi was really sour this time. It''s just that it''s so sour that I don''t even know it. My wife said it was just for two men, but in reality it was just two men who had never married. Don''t underestimate the 10% price. Three years is a huge amount of money, tens of thousands. If they were just two ordinary stewards, Song Jin would definitely not give up his interests. From this point alone, it can be seen that Zhou Wei and Xing Lun are different in Song Jin''s heart. At least Song Jin valued him very much. Even his husband, his husband, only got two thousand taels. What do these two people have? Just a little comparison, Qin Chi can''t help but feel sad. But now Qin Chi only felt unhappy, but he didn''t realize anything. Then he told Song Jin the results of the investigation by Lao Huo and others. Song Jin listened quietly. Mi Li blocked her expression, and Qin Chi could only hear some of her emotional fluctuations from her words. The person behind this incident, as Song Jin guessed, was the owner of Huairen Drug Store, the Zeng family. "Has Jifang ever offended the second master of the Zeng family?" The person who wanted to kill Jifang Pharmacy this time was the second master of the Zeng family. This man had a bad reputation in Fucheng. He had done many bad things such as bullying men and women, and robbing people''s fields and shops. Jifang Pharmacy was targeted by this person. A nuisance indeed. Dear children, have a happy Dragon Boat Festival! Chapter 43 the truth behind The truth behind Chapter 43 "My people should have no contact with Second Master Zeng, but not long ago, shopkeeper Chai of Huairen Medicine Hall tried to blackmail us but failed." The Song family and the Zeng family had no intersection before. Naturally, Song Jin didn''t know the Zeng family, but had only heard about some things about the Zeng family. We still need to go back to the drug store to talk to Jin Ling and others about this matter. After all, it was the son of two families who was imprisoned. After getting up and saying goodbye to the other party, Song Jin left with satisfaction after hearing that the person on the other side of the screen asked her to go to the Yamen jail to pick him up in an hour. Just stepped out of the bookstore. There was a man with a simple face guarding the door. As soon as he saw Song Jin appear, he greeted him. "My boss, I am Xing Shu. My mother asked me to pick you up." Xing Shu is Yinlong''s eldest son and Xing Lun''s eldest brother. He doesn''t work in a drug store. He spends most of his time in a village in the countryside, responsible for cultivating medicinal seeds. Xing Shu is responsible for all the seeds needed by the farmers under the name of Jifang Pharmacy. Song Jin had met him in his previous life. This is the first time in my life that I have seen him. Song Jin nodded to Xing Shu, and then they went back to the drug store together. Jin Ling, Yinlong and others were very excited after telling Shun An about his promise to help. An hour later. Zhou Wei and Xing Lun, who everyone had been waiting for, were released. Song Jin took the drugstore''s carriage and went to the Yamen to pick him up in person. The two of them were helped out by Xing Shu and Zhou''s father. They looked quite embarrassed and their clothes were stained with blood. Song Jin sent the two of them to the nearest medical clinic. After some examination, it was found that Zhou Wei had a broken arm and Xing Lun had a serious head injury. Fortunately, they were all traumatic injuries. The doctor said that they would be able to recover after a period of time. This made Song Jin secretly relieved. Xing Lun stepped forward and wanted to say something, but Song Jin raised his hand to stop him. "If you have anything to say, let''s talk about it when we get back." "Okay, boss." Xing Lun got on the carriage. Zhou Wei slumped down on it and didn''t want to move. "My boss, I thought I couldn''t escape this time. It''s God''s blessing that I can walk out of the prison alive." Father Zhou patted Zhou Wei on the shoulder, "It''s not God''s blessing, it''s the protection of our boss. Do you think there is no cost to rescue you?" Zhou Wei and Xing Lun looked startled. Both looked at Song Jin who was sitting in the carriage. Song Jin looked at the two people''s moved expressions and suddenly felt a little funny, "Ask people from Shun''an to help, the price is to reduce the original market price by another 10%. We are not losing money at this price, but it is not as much as we originally made. You will work hard in the future." Live, I will do it as a reward. "Don''t worry, boss, we will definitely work seriously." The two of them were originally loyal to Song Jin. After this time, I even wanted to die. On the contrary, Song Jin didn''t think it was anything. Money can never be earned. As long as people are alive, there are infinite possibilities in life. If a person dies, there is nothing. Song Jin sent them home directly. The two families live not far from the drug store. It''s in the alley behind Jifang Pharmacy. Song Jin asked Xing Lun and Zhou Wei to change and eat something first, and wait until they had calmed down before talking about anything else. Then we started chatting with Jin Ling and others, nothing more than talking about the Zeng family''s problems and the news about Huairen Medicine Hall. From the words of Jin Ling and others, Song Jin learned that the last time Shopkeeper Chai returned, he was reprimanded by the Zeng family and removed from his position as shopkeeper. Because of the relationship between in-laws, I did not report to the official. This matter was not a big deal at first, but Master Zeng had his eye on Jifang Pharmacy for some reason. After Xing Lun changed his clothes, he quickly ate something and came to see Song Jin. Song Jin saw that he was very energetic and asked, "Why don''t you take a rest?" "Thank you for your concern, my boss. I''m fine now. If Master Dianshi hadn''t taken care of him secretly this time, I''m afraid Zhou Wei and I would have been in trouble." Xing Lun''s face was extremely solemn. . Song Jin immediately sat up straight and asked seriously: "You said that Second Master Zeng is here to kill you?" "Nine times out of ten." Xing Lun spoke with determination. The official who took the lead in catching them must have been bribed. They just defended themselves a few words. The officer immediately claimed that they were resisting arrest and said he was going to break their hands and feet, but in fact he was going to hit their heads. Fortunately, Dianshi appeared and saved them both. However, the batch of medicinal materials was said to have been lost by Huairen Pharmacy, and it had been reported to the police a long time ago. Appearing in the hands of the two of them is considered "evidence of guilt". The two of them told who sold it to them, but they were still sent to jail. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Jin Ling and others who heard it were surprised, and then became very angry. "He is so lawless!" "The Zeng family is not arrogant or domineering for a day or two." "This matter cannot be left alone." Everyone began to discuss countermeasures, and everyone expressed their opinions. Only Song Jin sat quietly and didn''t say anything. Song Jin didn''t know whether the forces behind the scenes that harmed the Song family had withdrawn from Huizhou Prefecture. It''s not even certain that Xing Lun and Zhou Wei''s troubles had anything to do with the Song family. If it was just a simple business competition, directly taking people''s lives would not be like the Zeng family''s style, or it should not be something a businessman would do. If we insist on saying that the Zeng family is interested in Jifang Pharmacy. So the most reasonable thing to do is to send a person in charge to the door and buy the pharmacy at a low price. This is in the interests of businessmen. Killing people directly is not just about profit. "Is Shopkeeper Jin here?" The voice of a little medicine boy from the drug store came from outside the door. "What happened in the shop?" Jin Ling stood up and hurried out. Jifang Pharmacy is not open today. But the workers who handle medicinal materials in the backyard are still working. Soon. Jin Ling came back again, "Miss, I went to the drug store. I was told that shopkeeper Tao from Shun''an is waiting for me in the store." "Then go quickly." Song Jin motioned for her to go. There must be something important going on over there in Shun''an. Then Song Jin motioned for everyone to go down and rest, "This matter won''t be solved for a while. Until it is solved, the drug store will not be opened for the time being. Let''s take a good rest for a while." "Master!" This shocked everyone. Song Jin reassured: "It''s not that the door will always be closed, it''s just temporary. The medicinal materials still have to be collected." Jifang Pharmacy is different from other pharmacies. The main income comes from selling medicinal materials. These medicinal materials have all been ordered by Shun''an, so whether the business is open or not has little impact. There is a shop here, mainly to build a reputation so that other drug farmers can come to you. Now that the Zeng family is looking for trouble, instead of opening the door and being frightened, we must always be on guard against the Tsang family''s conspiracy. It''s better to close down for a while. Let the other party find no loopholes. Jin Ling went out for a trip, but within half a quarter of an hour she came back in a hurry. When I came back, I was holding a long wooden box in my hand. "Little miss, Shopkeeper Tao is here to give you something." Jin Ling handed the small long wooden box to Song Jin. Chapter 44 The people who harmed the Song family be Chapter 44 The person who harmed the Song family behind the scenes Song Jin opened the wooden box. Inside is an investigation file involving the Song family case. There are also some testimonies in it, which are signed and fingerprinted, and can be valid in court. This is something that the northwest side has investigated clearly. Song Jin did not take a closer look on the spot, "You all go down first and don''t let anyone disturb me." "Yes, little lady." "Okay, boss." Jin Ling and others retreated. Yinlong held Xing Lun''s hand tightly. Xing Lun didn''t want his mother to worry, so he let her help her rest. This time it really scared my family. Since leaving the Song family and escaping from slavery, the two families have gone through a lot of things. They have worked hard to renovate the medicine shop, and they have suffered some injuries in the process. But this was the first time I almost lost my life. Wait a little further. "Mom, don''t worry, my son is fine. The doctor said it''s just a skin injury and he''ll be fine with it." Xing Lun saw Yinlong secretly wiping away tears and quickly comforted him. Yinlong said with a trembling voice: "Mom, you are afraid." These words left Xing Lun speechless. Yinlong blinked away her tears again, "This matter is not that simple, Lun''er, it doesn''t matter if my mother gives her life to the young lady, but do you really want to continue to work with the young lady?" This is her son! He almost died! At this time, she couldn''t be calm, and she didn''t want her son to continue to be in a dangerous whirlpool. Xing Lun put his arm around Yinlong''s shoulders and said, "After I leave my boss, will there be a place for me in this world? My mother has lived for most of her life, so she should see things more clearly than her son." There is no one to protect you in this world. It is difficult for ordinary people to live a stable life. For example, the drug farmers under the name of Huairen Medicine Hall are almost dying, and there are many people selling their children and daughters. In the past, Jifang Pharmacy was protected by the Song family, and it was stable for several years. If there were no Song family, someone would immediately bully them. Yinlong held Xing Lun tightly. It''s not that she wants to leave the little lady, but she hopes that her son can follow a stable path. This is just a mother''s simple wish. "You haven''t been conspicuous since you were a child. You obviously don''t stand out in anything, and you don''t have any talents. Why does the young lady want to use you so highly?" Yinlong didn''t quite understand this. "Isn''t that great?" Xing Lun chuckled. The smile was more cheerful than he had ever seen before. Even Yinlong had rarely seen such a smile on his son''s face. My previous son was too quiet. He was so quiet that at the end of the day, his family would forget about him. Only during this time when he was working for the young lady, he became much more energetic. Even the expression on his face became richer and he had a different smile. Maybe she shouldn''t have said what she just said. Xing Lun returned to the room and watched Yinlong leave. Then he slowly closed the door. Song Jin, who was on the other side, had quickly read through the files sent by Shun''an. The moment you know the truth. Song Jin''s eyes were red with anger, full of hatred. Song Jin gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "What a Zeng family! Very good..." Before today, Song Jin never knew that behind the frame-up of the Song family, there was also the involvement of the Zeng family. The person who sold the medicinal materials to the Northwest Army was not the Song family at all. Instead, the Zeng family sold the medicinal materials to the military camp under the name of Song''s medicinal materials. As for the medicinal materials that killed people, it was true, but it was not the Song family''s medicinal materials, but the Song family who took the blame without knowing it. Originally, as long as someone came to Huizhou Prefecture to investigate this kind of thing, it would not be difficult to find out the truth. However, there was collusion from above. The Song family was directly convicted! There were many people involved, including some officials from the northwest and officials from Huizhou Prefecture, such as Yang Lingyu, the prefect of Huizhou. The only regret is that the mastermind behind the scenes has not been found. According to the investigation information, the most suspicious person is the Yang family in Shangjing. Song Jin held Juzong''s hand tightly and gradually loosened it, feeling a little calmer at any time. Put the file back into the wooden box. Song Jin took the power fence and walked out. "Little miss, are you leaving?" Jin Ling was standing outside and asked when she saw Song Jin coming out. Song Jin gave a slight "hmm". "Then I''ll prepare the carriage for you." Jin Ling quickly went to tell Zhou''s father to prepare the carriage and horses. When Song Jin appeared, the carriage was already waiting at the door. The person driving the car was Zhou''s father, "Where are we going?" "Go home." Song Jin didn''t want to go to the drug store for the time being. Father Zhou didn''t ask any more questions and drove the man back home. When getting out of the car, Song Jin turned around and ordered: "Go back and tell everyone that you have been more alert recently. Don''t act rashly without my instructions." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Yes, boss, I will tell everyone when I get back." "Oh, be careful when you go back." After Song Jin finished speaking, he stepped into the threshold. Mrs. Huang was washing clothes in the courtyard. When she saw Song Jin coming back, she stood up quickly and said, "My wife is back. There is lily and lotus seed soup in the kitchen. Do you want to eat it?" "No, my husband is at home?" Song Jin asked casually. Mrs. Huang said respectfully, "My master is studying in the west wing." "Well, then you get busy first." Song Jin has already reached the east wing. He pushed open the door to the room and went in, then closed the door behind him. Mrs. Huang looked around for a few times, then looked at the carriage that was turning around at the gate. She walked lightly to the west wing and knocked on the door twice. "Sir, my wife has gone home, and now she has entered the east wing." "knew." Qin Chi''s cold voice came out. Then he thought that it was noon and Song Jin probably hadn''t eaten yet. Qin Chi put down his pen and gave another instruction, "There is food in the kitchen. Send one to the east wing." "Yes, old slave, go now." Mrs. Huang quickly went to the kitchen. Prepare the food properly and send it to the east wing on a tray. Song Jin had no appetite to eat. Seeing that Mrs. Huang still brought the food and said it was Qin Chi''s order, she couldn''t let her carry it anymore. "Then put it on the table." Song Jin sat in front of the dressing table. There was originally a rectangular wooden box opened on the dressing table. When Mrs. Huang came in, Song Jin closed the wooden box and her expression returned to normal. Mrs. Huang put the food on the table, "My hostess, eat it while it''s hot. When you finish eating, I''ll clean up the dishes." "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Granny Huang." "You''re welcome." Mrs. Huang exited and closed the door. After the others left, Song Jin took out the file from his sleeve and read it carefully over and over again. The names of the people mentioned above. Song Jin remembered them all in his heart. When the time comes in the future, she will definitely take revenge one by one. Fight until death! In fact, until this moment, Song Jin finally understood why Mr. Zeng suddenly attacked Xing Lun and Zhou Wei. Because both families were once from the Song family. Their identities are not difficult to investigate. In particular, Song Jin took action early in his life and gathered more than 90% of the medicine farmers who were originally trained by the Song family. As long as someone is interested in investigating, it will not be difficult to find out that Zhou Wei went to give gifts. This is undoubtedly admitted. Jifang Pharmacy is related to the Song family. In the entire Huizhou Prefecture, the people who are most worried about the Song family''s comeback are undoubtedly the Zeng family. Chapter 45 eat Chapter 45 Eating When Qin Chi saw Song Jin again, he noticed a change in her temperament. He couldn''t tell exactly how. Just knowing something is different. "Do you only have this much for lunch, madam?" Qin Chi''s eyes fell on the food on the table. I only ate half of the lily and lotus seed soup. Song Jin said calmly: "I just have no appetite for the time being." Qin Chi picked up the lotus seed soup and slowly handed it to Song Jin. His voice was calm but unquestionable: "No matter what happens, taking care of yourself is the first priority." Song Jin looked at the Lily Lotus Seed Soup handed to him. She really has no appetite now. However, seeing Qin Chi''s attitude, Song Jin still stretched out her delicate white hand, took the lotus seed soup, put it into her mouth one after another, and then swallowed it slowly. Until she finished her last bite. Qin Chi took the initiative to take the empty bowl in her hand. After eating the cold tortillas and side dishes on the table, Song Jin sat aside and looked at Qin Chi intently, feeling something strange in his heart. "Madam, do you need my help with the drug store?" Qin Chi put down the bowl and chopsticks and asked. Song Jin whispered softly, then frowned and said: "It shouldn''t be necessary, the person has been released. However, I want to go to the temple to fast for a few days and pray that my husband can go to high school." Qin Chi is going to take the county examination. This is just the first step for a scholar, and it is still far away from the so-called high school. However, Song Jin used this as an excuse to leave for a few days, and it was really difficult for Qin Chi to stop him. In the homes of Huizhou scholars, many of them go to temples to offer incense and pray for blessings on days when they take part in scientific examinations. As Qin Chi''s wife, it is not surprising that Song Jin has this idea. Even if outsiders knew about it, they would only know that Song Jin had good intentions and went out openly and openly for a few days, and his reputation would not be affected. Qin Chi did not respond, but asked: "Which temple do you want to go to?" "A few years ago, Zen Master Pumen came to Huangshan and built Fahai Zen Temple. It was enlarged to protect the country Ciguang Temple by order. I have not been there yet..." Song Jin thought of all the reasons he could think of. No wonder Qin Chi asked this question. In the old days, transportation in Huangshan was blocked and there were few tourists. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, the only person who lived in seclusion in Huangshan was Chen Ye, the governor of Kuaiji. Until the Tang and Song Dynasties, Huangshan gradually became known to the world. With the seclusion of celebrities and the introduction of religion, the number of temples and temples on the mountain has increased. Since Zen Master Pumen came here in this dynasty, monks from all over the world have come here, and the incense in the temple has been unprecedentedly prosperous. Song Jin didn''t believe in ghosts and gods much before. Then she and Song Xiu were reborn, and Song Jin began to believe it again. Just in response to a certain nonsense, whether you believe it or not, you don''t. Of course, the purpose of Song Jin''s suggestion to go out to burn incense and fast was not to believe in Buddhism, but to leave for a few days. Qin Chi lowered his eyelids and said, "I''m not worried about my wife going alone." "Shopkeeper Jin and Shopkeeper Yin will also go. Their son suffered a disaster this time. Fortunately, the Buddha blessed him and he was safe. They just happened to go to the temple to burn incense." Song Jinsheng was afraid that Qin Chi would stop him, so he pulled Jin Ling and Yinlong out of the way. Qin Chi thought to himself that if he hadn''t found someone to solve the problem, he would have almost believed in Buddha''s blessing. "Madam, has your mind been made up?" "Well, I can rest assured that Mrs. Huang will take care of you." Song Jin said again without hesitation. In fact, when he came to the county town, Song Jin rarely paid attention to Qin Chi''s affairs. Qin Chi couldn''t stop him now, so he could only say to pay attention to safety on the road, go early and come back early, etc. Song Jin immediately packed up his change of clothes, went to find Lao Li Tou next door, and took a mule cart to Jifang Pharmacy. Jin Ling and Yinlong were not there, but there were two medicine boys working in the backyard. Song Jin asked them to collect the medicine and gave them a day off. Then, Song Jin went to Yinlong''s pharmaceutical room. When he came out again, he put on a short men''s suit and a straw hat. The chest is flat, probably from a corset. The fair cheeks, neck and hands, all the exposed skin were coated with some kind of herbal juice by Song Jin, making them not look so white. The eyebrows are drawn thickly, and freckles are added to the cheeks. When walking outside, with bigger steps, humbly bending the waist and lowering the head, he looks like an ordinary person. At first glance, it would be difficult for outsiders to recognize her as a woman. If Qin Chi saw Song Jin passing by at this time, he might not recognize her. The direction Song Jin walked this time was to the county government office. When he was in office, Song Jin hid his whereabouts. He hid in an alley until the official from the Yamen came home from the Yamen. Song Jin recognized one of them. He is of medium build, with big shoulders, round waist, and nine fingers. This official is called Huang Bingliang. He was originally a free-spirited person, but later he became a servant in Yixian County through someone else''s path. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! It was this man who was bribed by Mr. Zeng to kill Xing Lun and Zhou Wei. I followed Huang Bingliang for a while and saw that he didn''t do anything or see anyone, so he went home directly. Song Jin did not take action, but walked around in a circle. Before dark, Song Jin went back to the medicine shop. In Song Jin''s previous life, the business grew bigger and bigger. Although he had never killed anyone with his own hands, he was not stained with blood. But at that time, she had a group of loyal men in her hands. There are many people who do this kind of thing for her. There is nothing that can be done now, she can only do it. "My boss?" A surprised voice sounded when Song Jin stepped into the backyard. Song Jin looked toward the voice and saw Xing Lun, "Why are you here? You are so seriously injured, shouldn''t you take a good rest?" "I knew my boss was here, so I came here specially." Xing Lun made no secret of this. Seeing Song Jin''s confusion, Xing Lun said helplessly: "The medicine boy lives in my house. They said you asked them to go back and rest." I see. She didn''t think of this for a moment. Xing Lun looked at Song Jin''s male attire and asked, "What''s yours?" "Yes, can you recognize my whole body?" Song Jin thought about what he did not conceal enough to allow Xing Lun to recognize him at a glance. "Maybe... my boss''s height hasn''t changed?" This is barely a reason. Song Jin no longer dwells on this matter. Let Xing Lun go in and sit in the lobby. It''s best not to let the wind blow. Then Xing Lun saw Song Jin, entered his mother''s pharmacy, washed the things on his face, and came out without changing his clothes. "What are you doing here, Master?" Xing Lun''s question was beyond his reach. Song Jin hesitated whether to tell Xing Lun. In his previous life, Xing Lun had followed him all his life and was very loyal, and he almost lost his life many times... While Song Jin was hesitant and silent, Xing Lun''s heart was burning. He guessed that what Song Jin did must be very dangerous, and it might be related to the Zeng family. Mr. Zeng was heartbroken and crazy. Xing Lun couldn''t imagine if his boss accidentally fell into his hands! "I shouldn''t ask or inquire about my boss''s whereabouts. I just hope that my boss will not put himself in danger before making a decision." Xing Lun''s head lowered lower and lower, and the air pressure around his body was very low. Chapter 46 act in secret Chapter 46 Acting in secret When Song Jin saw him like this, he finally sighed and said truthfully: "I''m going to follow Huang Bingliang and plan to find out where he lives first." "How could you do such a dangerous thing?" Xing Lun''s face was full of disapproval. "I won''t take action rashly." A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, Song Jin understood. She wouldn''t take action without being very sure. Today Song Jin just wanted to know where Huang Bingliang''s home was and get familiar with the surrounding environment. Xing Lun said with a serious tone: "If my boss has something to do, you can ask me to do it." "It''s not that you and Zhou Wei are both injured." One hurt his head and the other his arm. No one else is suitable. Xing Lun said seriously: "Ah Wei and I have known a few people in Yixian County over the years. Last time we plotted against Shopkeeper Chai and asked him to sell a newly collected batch of medicinal materials. Even if we asked for help, the news was not leaked. "How did you know the news wasn''t leaked? I almost lost my life." Song Jin asked back. Xing Lun shook his head and said stubbornly: "This is not the point. In short, if my boss has anything to do, he will tell us to do it. You can''t take risks." "Okay." Song Jin slightly changed his plan, "Do you know anyone reliable?" "How many do you want?" "Two or three will do, but I want some with unfamiliar faces and fierce looking ones." What Song Jin asked people to do was very simple. Invite a few people to hang out near Huang Bingliang''s house. Then Song Jin ordered: "Find another trustworthy person and keep an eye on Huang Bingliang''s whereabouts. If he leaves Yixian County, you must notify me." Xing Lun didn''t understand why Song Jin did this, but he still did what Song Jin said. There are no such people. You can find several of them in rural medicine farmers. So in the next two days, Huang Bingliang always felt that someone was following him, especially when his family mentioned that a strange person appeared nearby and looked very fierce. Huang Bingliang looked gloomy. Wouldn''t the Zeng family want to burn down bridges and kill people to silence them? Do you really think Huang Binghao is bullying him? The plan to kill Xing Lun and Zhou Wei failed. The county magistrate is investigating the case. Posts are being posted everywhere in the yamen to arrest Wang Mazi who sold medicine to Zhou and Xing. Wang Mazi is Huang Bingliang''s good brother. Now people are hiding in the mountains. If the person is found, not to mention Huang Bingliang, the Zeng family''s setup to harm people will be exposed. According to the ruthless tactics of the Zeng family, silence is a common practice in order to leave no trace. In the past, Huang Bingliang and several brothers had done something to silence the Zeng family. Huang Bingliang paid close attention and saw three strange big men who often wandered around his house. They would avoid looking at him when they saw him. Pretending not to see him. Or just leave. Once, I saw a boy talking to three people from a distance. The boy''s clothes and the tag hanging on his waist looked like a servant of the Zeng family. If these people knew Huang Bingliang''s thoughts, they would be very baffled. Isn''t it normal for ordinary people to dodge when they see an official? But that boy was deliberately arranged by Song Jin. He is an orphan rescued by Xing Lun and works under Xing Lun. What is important is Huang Bingliangs misunderstanding. Finally on the third day. The people sent to keep an eye on Huang Bingliang learned that he had asked for three days'' leave from the Yamen. "My boss, we have left, heading towards Fucheng." Xing Lun later learned that Song Jin did these things to force Huang Bingliang to leave the county. Song Jin stood up and said, "I want to go to Fucheng." "My mother and the others have already gone to Ciguang Temple. You go to Fucheng..." Yes, the past two days. Song Jin asked Jin Ling and Yinlong to take a carriage to Ciguang Temple. Yinlong also deliberately put on a power fence and dressed up like Song Jin. Song Jin said: "After I go to Fucheng to resolve the matter, I will go and join them." "I''ll go with my boss." Xing Lun didn''t want Song Jin to take risks. Although Song Jin didn''t give him the impression of a weak person, she was still a woman, and Xing Lun was always worried about doing such dangerous things alone. Xing Lun''s objection to what Song Jin was determined to do was useless. "Remember to go to the doctor on time every day to change the medicine." After Song Jin finished this sentence, he left the medicine shop through the back door. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin said this because the incident happened in She County and someone could confirm that Xing Lun and Zhou Wei were indeed in Yi County. Song Jin is still dressed in a man''s attire. However, it is not the dress of common people earlier. Instead, he dressed up as a frail scholar and rented a carriage to go to Fucheng. From Yi County to the county, take the official road all the way. Song Jin pretended to be a student rushing to the academy and asked the coachman to hurry up. Finally, when it was getting dark, he arrived at the gate of Fucheng. When she got out of the car, Song Jin''s legs were floating, her stomach was churning, and she wanted to vomit several times. Give the money to the driver. Song Jin entered the city carrying a box and cage that looked like a book. Find the nearest inn to stay at. There was an ordinary carriage not far from the inn, waiting on the street not far away. "Madam''s ability is no worse than that of the young master." Lao Huo said while sitting on the shaft of the carriage. Qin Chi in the carriage looked indifferent. In the past few days, Song Jin has repeatedly refreshed Qin Chi''s understanding. It has nothing to do with the tolerance he had when his concubine was trying to time him when they first met, and the gentleness and gentleness when facing him. Lao Huo asked again: "Sir, do we also want to stay in an inn?" "No, just wait a moment." Qin Chi didn''t think Song Jin would stay obediently. Sure enough, about a quarter of an hour passed. From the alley next to the inn, an old man walked out tremblingly. If it weren''t for the two points visible from his figure, Qin Chi almost missed her, "Have someone follow her and protect her." "T-that''s madam?" Lao Huo looked shocked. Isn''t it? They are all dressed up like this, can the young master be recognized even from so far away? What is this based on? Is it a tacit understanding between husband and wife? No matter how shocked Lao Huo was, no matter how much he complained, he still had to do what the young master ordered. He gestured towards the darkness, waved his hand again, and immediately two people came out of the darkness and headed in the direction where Song Jin left. This made Lao Huo feel itchy. If it weren''t for the fact that his injuries were not fully healed, Lao Huo would have wanted to follow him in person and see what his wife was going to do. Not long passed. Someone came to report that Song Jin had gone to a tavern not far away. I chatted with the owner of the tavern there for a while, bought another half a jar of wine, and then returned to the inn. On the surface it looks like nothing. In fact, there must be a problem. Otherwise, what are you going to do if you don''t sleep at night and buy half a jar of wine? "What''s the problem with the tavern?" Qin Chi suddenly asked. Lao Huo thought for a while, but didn''t think of anything. "I don''t know about this. Do you want someone to check it out?" "Go check it out." "Okay, I''ll make arrangements right away..." (End of chapter) Chapter 47 Kill with a borrowed knife Chapter 47 Killing someone with a borrowed knife Wait for the news to be sent to Shopkeeper Tao. Shopkeeper Tao looked at the address of the tavern and was silent for a long time before asking the visitor to tell Qin Chi. That''s where Shopkeeper Tao''s new development line begins. Daily contact with casual workers and selling information, usually not open, open for half a year. This was because Lao Huo almost had an accident, which made Qin Chi realize his shortcomings and asked shopkeeper Tao to strengthen the intelligence network. Qin Chi soon knew what Song Jin was doing in the tavern. Song Jin bought some information. The main purpose was to ask Huang Bingliang to go to the place where he stayed in She County and send a message to Mr. Zeng. "My wife anonymously sent a message to Mr. Zeng, forcing him to send 10,000 taels to Huang Bingliang''s destination, otherwise he would die..." Lao Huo was very surprised when he received the news. Qin Chi had a vague guess about what Song Jin wanted to do, "She wants to kill someone with a borrowed knife. Just keep an eye on her and help her secretly if you have the chance." "Okay, sir, I will take care of it now." At this time, Song Jin didn''t know that someone was staring at him. Song Jin opened the purchased information. In her previous life, she knew about this tavern, which was related to information about every family in She County. This tavern sold everything, and occasionally took on private jobs. The way to screen out normal customers and abnormal customers is like buying half a catty of osmanthus wine and then paying ten times the price. Qin Chi''s people soon discovered that Song Jin had left the inn. People are heading towards the poor residential area in Nancheng. Originally Song Jin went for Huang Bingliang. Walking through a secluded alley and passing a dilapidated house, I happened to hear a severe cough coming from inside. "Sister, drink the medicine quickly. You will be fine after taking the medicine." It was the anxious voice of a boy. This voice made Song Jin feel strange yet familiar at the same time. Just this sense of familiarity made Song Jin stop and look into the half-shattered house in the moonlight. A small fire was lit on the ground in the main room, illuminating the situation inside the house clearly. In the corner, in the haystack, lay a skinny little girl. A young boy in tattered clothes was half-kneeling next to the little girl. He was holding a broken sea bowl and wanted to feed the medicine, but he couldn''t feed it in. He was so anxious that he almost cried. Seeing the young man''s profile, Song Jin suddenly thought of someone. In his previous life, Xing Lun had a confidant named Lou Ruhan. When Song Jin met this man at that time, he was already an adult. He was usually taciturn and a loner, but he had a fierceness that no one else had. It is said that when he was young, his family was in a good situation, and he had no worries about food and clothing. However, his parents died suddenly and unexpectedly, and his family property was robbed by relatives. When he overheard that the other party wanted to sell their brother and sister, he ran away with his sister. He survived by begging, and later his sister fell ill and died. Later, he was seriously injured, and it was Xing Lun who saved him. Then, Lou Ruhan worked beside Xing Lun. Later, Xing Lun was ambushed once, but Lou Ruhan protected him with his life. Only then did Song Jin lead people to rescue him, but Lou Ruhan died of his injuries. Song Jinhui was deeply impressed by him. After his death, Xing Lun was depressed for a period of time. Song Jin suddenly said, "Child, come here." Lou Ruhan in the room turned around when he heard the sound, guarded himself in front of his sister, and looked at the figure standing outside the door. I couldn''t see the figure clearly enough at night, but I only knew that he was not tall. "Do something for grandpa, and I will give you money to treat your sister." Song Jin said in a deliberately hoarse voice. Lou Ruhan asked warily: "What are you doing?" "When your sister''s illness is cured, you go to Jifang Pharmacy in Yixian County and bring a message saying everything will be fine when I come to Fucheng." Song Jin took out a ten-tael silver ingot from his body. "Is it that simple?" Even though Lou Ruhan was wary and suspicious. On the premise of saving my sister, I would take any risk. Song Jin put the silver on the threshold, turned and left. Lou Ruhan put down half a bowl of medicine, quickly ran to the threshold and grabbed the silver. He immediately put the silver in his mouth and took a bite. He was sure it was real and was overjoyed. He quickly picked up his unconscious sister and went to the nearest hospital to find a doctor. Song Jin stood in the shadows, watching the two of them walk away. The people who were hiding in the dark to protect Song Jin saw all this and felt envious of Lou Ruhan, secretly thinking that he was such a lucky boy. However, although Song Jin''s actions were a little puzzling to them, they also had a great impression of him. It is better to protect people with good intentions than to be ruthless. Qin Chi was also surprised by Song Jin''s behavior. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! This doesn''t quite fit her character, unless she has known the brother and sister for a long time? Song Jin didn''t know that his impromptu help aroused so many speculations from others. We are continuing to rush to the place where Huang Bingliang settled. At the same time, there was another wave of people heading in the same direction as her. This area of ??Nancheng is a mixed bag of dragons and snakes, and most of the residents are poor people. Song Jin was dressed like a poor old man, so even if someone bumped into her, they wouldn''t think she was a fat sheep. When Song Jin arrived at the small courtyard where Huang Bingliang temporarily stayed, Song Jin spotted another wave of people before they even got close, quietly climbing over the wall of the small courtyard. After a while, the sound of fighting came from inside. After a while, Huang Bingliang ran out covered in blood, with two masked men chasing behind him. Huang Bingliang''s way of life was blocked, and he said fiercely: "I''m a thief! Mr. Zeng doesn''t respect the moral principles of the world. Even if I die here today, his surname Zeng won''t be able to live well!" "Hehehe, the last person who dared to threaten the Second Master would have been stamped on and fed to dogs..." The pursuer sneered and raised his knife to strike at Huang Bingliang again. Those who came to kill Huang Bingliang were indeed arranged by Master Zeng. Mr. Zeng has been arrogant and domineering all his life. He has never been threatened by others. At first, he didn''t know who the other person was. When the people sent out to investigate said they saw Huang Bingliang, he immediately thought of what happened in Yixian County. The plot against Jifang Pharmacy failed. Not to mention paying someone to kill someone? If you don''t put it out in the open, the government won''t care. But things are different when things are brought to light. The magistrate of Yixian County did not know what kind of medicine he had taken. He refused to accept bribes and insisted on tracking down the real culprit. Master Zeng immediately wanted to silence him. The nurses raised by the Zeng family were all desperadoes, and they committed many murders and arson. Huang Bingliang was finally killed by a knife. Song Jin witnessed this **** scene. When the masked men fled, she followed them secretly until they reached an old house hundreds of meters away. The murderers have all entered here. Song Jin looked at the high courtyard wall. It is not easy for ordinary people to climb in. The two gates look like they are decades old, but it can be seen that this place must have been built by rich people back then, but now it is abandoned and no one can live in it. Song Jin walked back for a while and picked out two long pieces of firewood as thick as a child''s arms from a pile of firewood in a corner. He quietly came to the gate of the house and passed a piece of firewood through the two copper rings on the gate. If you do this, it will be difficult for people inside to open the door. Chapter 48 So brave Chapter 48 So brave Song Jin walked along the alley again. Until the dilapidated back door of the house. When I got closer, I didn''t hear any movement inside. Then take out the dagger and insert it into the crack of the door bit by bit, and gently push the door out a crack. The patio that caught my eye was overgrown with weeds and had a rotten smell. When they saw Song Jin sneaking in, everyone who followed her secretly wiped their hands with cold sweat. Madam, you are so courageous! Lao Huo was shocked when he came over. If something happens to the madam here, the young master will not be able to spare them. At first glance, this house is rarely inhabited. In the front yard, Song Jin saw light in the main hall. The person who killed Huang Bingliang earlier was dressing his wounds. Song Jin saw Mr. Zeng. This is a middle-aged man with a yellow complexion and dark circles under his eyes. At first glance, he looks like someone who has indulged in excessive sexual activities. When he heard that Huang Bingliang was dead, Mr. Zeng''s face suddenly showed an arrogant look, "A good-for-nothing, who can''t even handle a small thing well, yet dares to use this to blackmail me. He doesn''t know whether to live or die." "Second Master, why do you need to be angry with that villain?" A confidant next to him was flattering and flattering. Mr. Zeng no longer wants to stay here, "Let''s go, it''s too late to go home tonight, go to Wanxiang Tower and have fun." "Okay, I''ll hold the light for you, little one." The little steward was humble and flattering, and walked beside Mr. Zeng carrying a lantern. There is also a sedan parked in the front yard. There are still four bearers guarding the sedan chair. Mr. Zeng went out and got into the sedan. The bearer lifted up the sedan. The steward ran to the gate and was about to open the door. result? ! Can''t open the door? The steward was shocked: "What''s going on? Why can''t the door be opened?" "what happened?" Mr. Zeng in the sedan shouted angrily. The steward hurriedly explained, "Second Master, this door can''t be opened!" "Trash, what a trash! I think you died on the little girl''s body, and you don''t even have the strength to open the door!" Mr. Zeng cursed and asked the bearer to open the door. Still not open. But the bearer had some knowledge, "Second Master, someone used a wooden stick to pass through the copper ring outside. If you are in a hurry to leave, you can take the back door." "Then why don''t you come back quickly to carry the sedan and take the back door." As soon as the sedan was lifted, he suddenly saw a fire in the front yard. Song Jin had already been secretly lighting fires everywhere. Light the fire and quickly exit through the back door. Take another piece of firewood and insert it into the copper ring. After a while, fire and smoke filled the house. It had been in disrepair for a long time, so the fire became even more intense. Lao Huo and others who followed him out looked in awe as they ran out, and then plugged the back door with firewood. The reason why Mr. Zeng came here temporarily was because it happened to be an abandoned house of the Zeng family, not far from the small courtyard where Huang Bingliang settled. He is here to act covertly. So I didnt bring many people. Even so, there are several guardians, bearers and a steward. Song Jin can''t fight it alone. "Master Huo, why don''t you leave quickly, madam?" In the dark, I watched Song Jin hiding in the shadow of the back door, not far from the main door. Lao Huo wanted to say that he also wanted to know why his wife didn''t leave, so he could only make an enigmatic sentence. "Maybe Madam has a back-up plan?" "That''s probably true. Setting fire shouldn''t kill those people." Sure enough, it didn''t take long. The back door was violently broken open. Mr. Zeng covered his mouth and nose, ran out of it in a panic, then bent over and coughed violently, obviously choking on the thick smoke. Song Jin, who was in the shadow, took out a hidden weapon that looked like a bamboo flute from his sleeve, put it to his mouth and blew, and a poisonous needle silently pierced the neck of Master Zeng. Then Song Jin turned around and turned into a dark alley without looking back. It disappeared in a blink of an eye. Lao Huo and others were stunned. "Withdraw!" Lao Huo ordered after regaining his composure. The young master was also worried that something might happen to his wife, and wanted him to help. Who knew there was no need for it! Lao Huo and others quickly retreated. And the fire here is getting bigger and bigger, and Master Zeng died again, so Fucheng will definitely be lively tomorrow morning. After Song Jin returned to the inn, he changed his disguise and threw all the things he shouldn''t have into the pit. Early the next morning. The sky was gray, and Song Jin, dressed as a scholar, went to check out of the hotel, carrying a suitcase and cage on his back. The shopkeeper thought he was a student from the academy and wanted to go to school early, so he didn''t suspect anything. Song Jin went to the market without stopping and rented a carriage. Got out of the city safe and sound. Song Jin didn''t know that there was a carriage following her out of the city. At a three-way intersection in the middle. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin asked the driver to stop, and paid the driver the full amount of money. After the driver left, she walked to a carriage parked under the shade of a tree on the roadside a hundred feet away. "Uncle Zhou." When Father Zhou saw the scholar coming over, he didn''t recognize him at first, but after hearing such a familiar voice, Uncle Zhou immediately knew that the person coming was Song Jin. He whispered in surprise: "My boss?" "It''s me." Song Jin got into the car and said, "Let''s go to Ciguang Temple." "My boss is safe." Father Zhou drove the carriage in the direction of Ciguang Temple. Jin Ling and Yinlong are still at Ciguang Temple. Yinlong was still pretending to be Song Jin and worshiping the Buddha. The carriage behind. The subordinates reported: "Sir, Madam asked Manager Zhou to pick her up. That direction is to Protect the Country Ciguang Temple." "Um." Qin Chi responded, but said nothing. Lao Huo asked tentatively: "Master, do you want to follow me?" "No need, go back to Yi County." After Song Jin left the city, he knew that nothing would happen. The carriage that Song Jin rented was also arranged by Qin Chi. At the same time, Qin Chi had arranged for people to do the finishing work, which was to pretend to be the scholar before Song Jin and pretend to be studying in a nearby academy. In this way, almost no one will find out about Song Jin. Song Jin and Zhou''s father''s carriage came to a stop in front of Ciguang Temple. Father Zhou put the carriage away and went to pick up Jin Ling and Yinlong. From the beginning to the end, Song Jin did not get out of the car and had already changed into a woman''s clothes in the car. Waited for a short while. Jin Ling and Yinlong came out and got on the carriage one after another. Seeing that Song Jin was safe and sound, tears were about to flow out, and he kept saying that it would be fine if she was fine, and not to take any more risks in the future. Yinlong even took off the power barrier and changed clothes with Song Jin. The carriage gradually left Ciguang Temple and headed straight to Yi County. When we returned to Yi County, it was already late at night. Song Jin went to the medicine shop and spent the night. The next morning, after Song Jin freshened up and found nothing unusual, he returned home with the peace charm that Yinlong had gone to ask for. It has been five days since I left. Tomorrow is the county examination, and it would be unreasonable not to go home. On the way back, I felt like I was returning home for no reason. When I opened the door and went in, my originally restless heart suddenly calmed down at this moment. This feeling came very suddenly. It took her a long time to recover... "Madam, why are you still standing at the door when you come back?" Qin Chi held a book in his hand and stood on the corridor of the west wing, looking at himself as calmly as bamboo. Song Jin lowered his head and smiled silently. Before she knew it, she might have considered this place her home. Hey guys, please vote for the new book and give it a thumbs up~ Chapter 49 County examination Chapter 49 County Examination Song Jin turned around and closed the door. Then walk towards Qin Chi through the corridor. Qin Chi''s eyes darkened instantly, but the corners of his lips slowly raised. "Has your husband had breakfast?" Song Jin came to stand in front of Qin Chi and asked with concern. Qin Chi asked, "What about you?" Song Jin was in such a hurry to come back that he really forgot to eat something. Qin Chi called Mrs. Huang, "Bring the warm food from the kitchen to the table." Then, Qin Chi naturally took Song Jin''s hand and walked into the hall. Song Jin felt inexplicably nervous, so he asked: "The county examination is about to start tomorrow. How is your husband preparing?" "We have asked a resident from this county to act as a guarantee." This dynasty stipulates that students taking the exam must first register, and then ask a local student from the county to be a guarantor, so that five people who take the exam can marry each other. Qin Chi''s household registration is that of a farmer, so his identity is not a problem. Song Jin presented Qin Chi with the lucky bag containing the peace talisman and said, "I wish you that the Dapeng will rise with the wind in one day and soar up to ninety thousand miles." "Thank you, madam." Qin Chi took the lucky bag with a smile and put it in his sleeve pocket. Let''s finish breakfast together. Qin Chi went out to visit Tachuan Academy. When I came back, I was carrying a test basket with the Four Treasures of the Study in it, and then I went to the west wing to review my books. In fact, Qin Chi was not nervous about the county examination. According to my husband, it is not difficult to pass the county examination as long as you memorize the Four Books and Five Classics and understand the scriptures well. But it also requires crossing five passes and killing six generals, and thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge. Qin Chi studied his homework seriously during this period. But now his mind did not fall on the book. Instead, he listened to the noise coming from outside. Song Jin and Mrs. Huang are studying how to make some shelf-stable food. It was for Qin Chi to eat in the examination room. Song Jin thought for a while and prepared mugwort to repel mosquitoes. Then he was worried that Qin Chi would catch cold, so he put some slices of **** and pills. Later, I was worried that he would not be able to see clearly if he entered the examination room too early, so he prepared candles, fire certificates, etc. the next day. Song Jinyin got up at that time. It''s not yet dark outside, Mrs. Huang is already busy in the kitchen, and Lao Li Tou''s mule cart is also waiting outside. Lanterns are lighting up. Song Jin wanted to send Qin Chi to the examination room in person. Qin Chi saw a bunch of things prepared by Song Jin. He had no choice but to take only pancakes and water, and put them in the examination basket together with pens, ink, paper and inkstones. "Madam, the county exam is divided into five sessions. Today is just the first session. It only lasts one day. You can hand in the papers in advance, so you don''t need to prepare too much." "Ah? Is that so?" Song Jin had no experience in this. In her previous life, she married Qin Mingsong, and he was already a scholar, so she was really not prepared. Went out in the car with a lantern. The lights outside the examination room were brightly lit, with soldiers guarding the outside and government officials maintaining order. At the entrance of the examination room, there were already dozens of people queuing up. The accompanying elders, attendants, etc. stood aside and waited. Qin Chi asked Song Jin to go back first and not bother to accompany him here. Song Jin shook his head with a smile, "Everyone is guarding, how can I go back? My husband, go and line up quickly, I will accompany you here." Song Jin was still wearing a power fence, and even though Qin Chi couldn''t see her face clearly, there was still something strange in her heart. He nodded at her and quickly walked over to line up with the test basket in hand. Song Jin stood outside the examination room. Until Qin Chi entered the examination room after inspection, he turned back and waved to her, indicating that she should go home. Song Jin then got on Lao Li Tou''s mule cart and went back. Along the way, Lao Litou praised Qin Chi in every way. For example, how good is the talent and how valuable is the character, etc. After such a long time, Song Jin had already noticed something strange about his neighbor next door. Mrs. Huang and Lao Litou were occasionally very respectful to Qin Chi. The county examination is just a stepping stone to becoming a scholar through the imperial examination. If you want to become a scholar, you must not only pass the county examination, but also the government examination and the hospital examination. Qin Chi sat alone in the small examination room, and the strange feeling in his heart still did not dissipate. His mind was full of his wife, and the scene when he turned around and saw her waving to him not far away before entering the examination room. Originally, Qin Chi had no plans to take the imperial examination. Isnt this a family? The sister-in-law planned that they should change their marriage. Wouldn''t it be just to treat him as a dead man, while my uncle has a bright future? He, a sick man who is about to die in the eyes of others, always wants to give his wife a chance, right? This reason seems ridiculous, but it is true. Qin Chi took out the four treasures of the study from the examination basket one by one, placed them on the examination table, poured some water on the inkstone, and began to prepare for the examination, such as grinding ink. Wait until all students have entered. Officials such as the county magistrate, county magistrate, and jiaoyu first offered incense to the sage Confucius. After three bows, the jiaoyu read out the rules of the examination room. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Finally, it was the county magistrate who announced the start of the exam. Not long after, the test papers were handed out. The contents to be tested on the examination paper are scripture quotes, silent meanings and a test poem. The so-called "Tie Jing" tests students'' recitation of the Four Books and Five Classics, with a total of twelve questions. The tacit meaning is the interpretation. In short, it means explaining the meaning of the sentences in the test questions. There are ten questions in total. Generally speaking, the sentences are from the Four Books and Five Classics. Qin Chi took a cursory look and found that half of them were from "The Doctrine of the Mean" and "University". The last step is to compose a poem with the title "Huangshan". These are not difficult for Qin Chi. After the ink was polished, he took up the pen and answered the question slowly. Qin Chi is not conspicuous among the candidates. But his calm demeanor made passing officials look at him again and again. You know, there are no candidates who are not nervous. He is really too calm! When the county magistrate was on inspection, he couldn''t help but glance at Qin Chi a few more times, and then left with a strange look in his eyes. The exam is one day. Qin Chi had finished answering the exam paper in less than an hour. After checking again and again, no errors or omissions were found. Qin Chi didn''t want to be high-profile, so he sat in the examination booth and stayed quietly until noon. When he felt hungry, he took out water and pancakes to eat. I saw a few students handing in their papers early. Qin Chi finished the last bite of pancake. Only then did I slowly turn in the paper. Walking out of the examination room with the examination basket in hand. There were some parents and attendants waiting outside, but Qin Chi did not see his wife among these people. It would be a lie to say I''m not disappointed. But it was him who asked her to go home first. "Master." Lao Li Tou sent Song Jin back, and then hurried back to wait. Not without a carriage. It''s Qin Chi who doesn''t want to be high-profile. Lao Li took the test basket, and Qin Chi lifted up his clothes and got into the car. "Is my wife at home?" Qin Chi couldn''t help asking. Old Li Tou replied: "It should be there." "Okay, let''s go." Others saw Qin Chi coming out so quickly, with envy in their eyes. Although he was not the first to submit the paper, he was still a student who came out early, so his knowledge must be good. Someone among them recognized Qin Chi. "I know him. He is a student of Tachuan Academy. He is quite famous in the academy." A follower whispered. Someone next to him was interested, "What kind of famous method is this? I''ve never seen him before." "It''s the headmaster of Tachuan Academy. I heard that he is urged to die every year, but he always refuses. This year he came for some reason." "He is not old, and it is not too late for him to end now." "That''s because I didn''t end up in the game before, maybe it was because I was young..." Chapter 50 County case leader Chapter 50 County Case Head Qin Chi stepped into the house. Then I saw Song Jin and Mrs. Huang talking in the kitchen. Mrs. Huang is picking vegetables. Song Jin made chicken soup himself. Seeing Qin Chi coming back, Song Jin smiled and asked him to go back to his room to rest, saying that he had already boiled hot water and would let him take a hot bath later to get rid of his fatigue. "Madam, there is no need to worry." Qin Chi took Song Jin''s hand. Song Jin was stunned, "What''s wrong with your husband?" "Sit down, I want to talk to you." Qin Chi pushed the person to sit next to him. He just killed someone not long ago. Now she was busy with him as if nothing was wrong. My wife is quite capable. But, arent you tired? Qin Chi held the person in his arms and silently caressed Song Jin''s back again and again. The intention was to let Song Jin rest with him. Only half a moment passed. Qin Chi hasn''t closed his eyes yet. Song Jin leaned in his arms but fell asleep. Qin Chi placed the person on the bed and then came out of the house gently. Come to the west wing. Go to the next door through the secret door of the west wing. Shopkeeper Tao is already waiting over there, "Sir, what''s going on with the exam?" "Alright." Qin Chi lifted up his clothes and sat down, "What about the Zeng family?" "The eldest brother of the Zeng family claimed to the outside world that the second master Zeng died of a sudden illness and did not report it to the official." It stands to reason that if Mr. Zeng dies, the eldest son of the Zeng family will be furious, and he should urge the Yamen to solve the case. In fact, Uncle Zeng initially planned to report the crime, but he learned from the nursing home that Mr. Zeng asked the nursing home to kill Huang Bingliang, and they happened to die in Nancheng, so this matter could not be exposed. Huang Bingliang is still a government official no matter what. It would also be a big trouble for the government to find out. Two murders in one night naturally alarmed the prefect Yang Lingyu. The prefect sent someone to the Zeng family house to inquire. Uncle Zeng said that the death was sudden and not murder as reported by outsiders. If the people don''t promote it, the officials won''t investigate it. The Yamen could not force the Zeng family to report the crime. "Uncle Zeng...has something." Qin Chi flipped through the personal information about Uncle Zeng. Shopkeeper Tao said: "Uncle Zeng has a mixed reputation in Huizhou Mansion. He never provokes people he can''t afford to offend. The most common thing he does is to do things behind people''s backs, but he is also cautious. I never come forward in person, so I havent been caught out in these years. "Our people haven''t been found either?" Qin Chi looked up at Shopkeeper Tao. Shopkeeper Tao had a headache, "No." "This man has done all the bad things, but his reputation is not bad at all." Qin Chi threw the information on the table. Second Master Zeng is just a chess piece that Uncle Zeng pushed into the light. Having Mr. Zeng in the city as a foil made outsiders have a better impression of Mr. Zeng. And dead people have no value. This was immediately abandoned by Uncle Zeng. Now Mr. Zeng has been buried, and the government has no chance to conduct an autopsy. "Before Huang Bingliang died, he said that he would not let Second Master Zeng have an easy time. Uncle Zeng suspected that Second Master Zeng''s death was arranged by Huang Bingliang and was secretly sending people to find his accomplices." Normally, how could Huang Bingliang dare to blackmail the Zeng family? In fact, Huang Bingliang really didn''t dare. This matter was caused by Song Jin. Huang Bingliang misunderstood that Mr. Zeng wanted to kill people and silence him. Mr. Zeng thought that Huang Bingliang wanted to blackmail him. By a combination of circumstances, the current situation developed. Qin Chi ordered, "People from the government office will definitely investigate Huang Bingliang''s death and lead clues about the murderer to the Zeng Family Nursing Home. Those people are not clean." "Okay!" Shopkeeper Tao took the order and left in a hurry. Time flies, and three days pass in the blink of an eye. It''s the day when the results are released. Song Jin got up early in the morning. From time to time he ran to the door to take a look, and he was even more nervous than Qin Chi himself. Mrs. Huang was happy, "I''m sure I''ll win, my lady boss, don''t be nervous!" "I don''t want to be nervous..." Isn''t this unbearable? Song Jin looked at Qin Chi with an embarrassed smile. Noticing that Qin Chi''s eyebrows were relaxed and he seemed to be in a good mood, Song Jin came closer to him and lowered his voice and asked, "Aren''t you nervous? This is related to your future..." "Nervous." Qin Chi responded with a smile. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! He wanted to say that he was not nervous, but he was afraid that Song Jin would be even more embarrassed. Song Jin glanced at him sideways, "It''s almost time, it''s time to look at the list." "There will be a lot of people today. I''ll ask someone to check it out for us. We can just wait for the news at home." "Shouldn''t you see this kind of thing in person?" Song Jin felt that he should see it in person. Qin Chi didn''t want her to squeeze in, "There are too many people there, and it''s even more crowded in front of the list. I''m in poor health. Ahem, it''s better not to go. Madam, just stay at home with me, okay?" Song Jin imagined the crowd. I immediately gave up the idea of ??looking at the list. If a person is accidentally pushed down, he may be trampled, and if he is unlucky, he may even lose his life. Qin Chi did make arrangements. Not only did they arrange for people to see the list, but they also tried their best to block the news from reaching Qinjiagou. "I hit it! I hit it!" Lao Li Tou ran in excitedly from outside. He was sweating profusely. His hair and clothes were messed up, but he was still very happy. "Congratulations to the young master, congratulations to the young master, and happy to be the head of the case in Jinke County!" Song Jin stood up happily, "Did you really win?" "I hit it! I really hit it!" Old Li Tou was overjoyed. After Song Jin was happy, he realized that he had just gotten carried away, so he quickly smiled and gave Lao Li a reward. I saw Mrs. Huang on the side. Song Jin rewarded Mrs. Huang with another drop of money. When Qin Chi saw Song Jin, his eyebrows were curled up with joy, and he didn''t even bother to maintain a dignified manner. His body was even more alive, which was very suitable for his current age. He felt that the temporary decision to take the imperial examination was right. So after being happy. Song Jin sat next to Qin Chi and asked with a smile: "Ms. sir, do you still want to take the remaining four exams?" There is a special treatment for the first place winner. That means you dont need to take the remaining four exams and can directly take the government exam. Qin Chi grabbed Song Jin''s hand and gently played with her fingers, "I''m weak, so I won''t go without taking the exam." Hearing this, Song Jin fell silent. The reason is very good and sufficient. As soon as Qin Chi saw her expression, he guessed what she was thinking, and simply put his head on her shoulder, as if his body was really weak. What can Song Jin do? We can only cooperate! The government examination will be held in two months. How to ensure that Qin Chi won the first place in the county does not spread to Qinjiagou, it is not easy. For this reason, Qin Chi specially asked someone to intercept the news. It was hard to say how long he could keep it secret. Mainly people from Qinjiagou, there will always be villagers coming to the county. If the news is heard, it will definitely spread to the whole village. "Madam, how about we go back to Qinjiagou to stay for a while?" "Okay, when will you go back?" "It''s better to choose a day than to hit it." If the two of them don''t go back, Boss Qin will come to the county town. They immediately rented a carriage and the young couple returned to Qinjiagou together. Chapter 51 Daily life in Qinjiagou Chapter 51 Daily life in Qinjiagou Qin Chi chose to go back to Qinjiagou today, not only because he wanted to avoid necessary social activities, but also because he was thinking about the violent storm he might have to face when he returned home. When he was ten years old, the mountain chief ordered Qin Chi to be punished. Qin Chi was very happy and rushed home to talk to Li. Unexpectedly, what he received was not Li''s support, but unprecedented opposition. The opposition became more intense every time. Qin Chi understood Li''s thoughts. I don''t want Qin Chi to leave the stable life here, and I don''t want him to enter the turbulent court. I just hope that he can live in peace. In the carriage. Song Jin felt the bumps of the carriage and Qin Chi beside him. Qin Chi''s mood was very stable and his expression was always calm, but Song Jin could feel something abnormal and a hint of gloom hanging over his heart. Song Jin guessed that it might be related to the county examination. In such a quiet atmosphere, the young couple returned to Qinjiagou. This time I came back in the afternoon. Boss Qin and others are either in the fields or in the medicine fields. There were just a few women and young children at home. Qin Daya and Xiao Liu went up the mountain to collect firewood. Lin and Song Xiu were doing housework at home and taking care of the three youngest children. Erlang and Sanlang went to private school and had not yet finished school. Mrs. Li is in the embroidery room specially set aside for her by Boss Qin. Only old Liu did nothing. Went to the village to chat with some old sisters. When Song Jin got off the carriage and stepped into the yard carrying her things, she saw Song Xiu cutting pigs and vegetables again. Song Xiu raised his eyelids and glanced at her. He snorted coldly and continued to chop vegetables. I just cut very hard, as if to vent my anger. Song Jin pretended not to see it. "Sister-in-law, Tangtang..." Erya, who was playing in the yard, was heading toward Song Jin with a swaying step. The other twins had already rushed out of the door excitedly, rushed to Qin Chi and hugged his thighs. Qin Chi paid the driver money first. Then he bent down to pick up the two children and weighed them with his arms. "Have Silang and Wulang had a good meal recently?" Qin Chi always felt that these two little guys were a little heavier. The two little guys were picked up in the air and were giggling happily. At this moment, Mrs. Lin heard the noise and came out. "The elder man''s wife is back." Song Jinzheng gave Erya a piece of mung bean cake, "Yes, I just came back. Third Aunt, how are you doing at home recently?" "Okay, everything is okay." Mrs. Lin walked outside the courtyard gate. Seeing boxes and cages placed on the ground, he helped move them in. Lin saw a lot of things, "Dalang plans to stay at home this time?" "The county examination has started this year and the academy is on holiday. My wife and I are back to stay for a few more days." Qin Chi made a casual excuse. Lin understood it as soon as he heard it. At this time of year, the academy has a holiday. When Qin Chi saw that his third aunt was so calm, he knew about the county examination. His family didn''t know yet. Song Jin carried his things back to the house. Mi Li had already taken off his clothes and came out to help. He saw Mrs. Lin coming in carrying two boxes and cages, while Qin Chi followed behind, holding only a pair of twins. "Madam, are there any more mung bean cakes? Give Third Aunt a pack." Qin Chi is a good person and rarely lets those who help him suffer. Song Jin responded with a smile, went back and took out a bag of pastries, and gave Shiro and Wuro a piece of mung bean cake each. Song Xiu''s eyes glanced at Song Jin from time to time. To be more precise, it was something in Song Jin''s hand. In the past, Song Xiu would not take a few pastries seriously. The problem is that she has been trapped in Qinjiagou for so long and has not eaten any snacks. Every time Song Jin comes back, she does not have a share. Song Xiu threw the knife into the vegetable basin angrily, "Song Jin, I have something to tell you." Such a big reaction. Everyone looked at her. However, Qin Chi put down the twins and went into the house to get another bag of pastries to see Mr. Li. Lin took the cakes and returned to the room happily. Who does she like the most in this family? It was Dalang, the young couple. Lin''s life was very hard before she got married. The Lin family''s parents favored sons over daughters and were famous in this area for being harsh on their daughters. Lin has only had a handful of snacks since she was a child, let alone receiving gifts from anyone, but since the elder man''s wife came in, she has received them several times. As for Song embroidery. Lin didn''t like this person very much. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! I think Song Xiu is a bit crazy, so Lin will stay away if she can. At this time, Song Xiu had already arrived in front of Song Jin. I looked around and found that there were only three little ones eating pastries at the door. Song Xiu then reprimanded with a bad face: "You are out in public all day, do you want to kill me? You can die if you want, but don''t drag me with you." Song Jin didn''t want to pay attention to Song Xiu. Staying with Song Xiu would put Song Jin in a bad mood. Song Xiu accused again: "Have you forgotten that we married secretly? If we bump into an acquaintance and learn that we are alive, and if we provoke official officials, I will never be done with you Song Jin." Song Jin understood now. Song Xiu was worried that she would be recognized outside, which would indirectly affect herself. Song Jin said expressionlessly: "Don''t worry, I won''t hurt you." I used to have this level of scruples. Ever since he learned that there was something unusual about the Song family''s case, Song Jin would no longer think so. Song Xiu said angrily: "You won''t do it if you say you won''t. You are not allowed to go to the county town in the future. You will just stay in Qinjiagou until the limelight is over in a few years." "Don''t mind my business." When Song Jin saw Song Xiu''s face, he suddenly realized, "And your jealous face is really ugly." At first, Song Jin really thought that Song Xiu was worried about something happening. When she saw the jealousy in Song Xiu''s eyes, Song Jin understood that Song Xiu simply didn''t want her to live well. In Song Xiu''s heart, living in the county town is to enjoy happiness. Song Jin glanced at Song Xiu coldly, turned around and walked into the house. Song Xiu was so angry that she stamped her feet and scolded Song Jin over and over again in her heart. Why should she stay in the Qin family and live a hard life? Song Jin was able to go to the county seat to enjoy the blessings. I originally thought that Song Jin gave Old Man Qin a sum of money last time so that he wouldn''t have to work. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Liu was only quiet for two days and asked her to work again. If you dont work, you wont be fed! Song Jin went to see Old Man Qin to seek justice, but Old Man Qin just scolded Mr. Liu for a few words and was done. This made Song Xiu angry almost to death. If Song Xiu had not experienced more difficult times in his previous life, Song Xiu would have given up his career long ago. However, Song Xiu couldn''t see Song Jin having an easy time, but he didn''t dare to plot against her again. Song Xiu still clearly remembered Song Jin''s threat last time. "Little Mrs. Song, the pigs and vegetables haven''t been cut yet, what are you doing standing there?" Mrs. Liu came back from outside and saw Song Xiu standing there, getting angry without even doing any work. When Song Xiu heard this, he secretly rolled his eyes. But he still reluctantly went back to chop the pork and vegetables. After chopping a few times, Song Xiu rolled his eyes and said, "Mother-in-law, my sister and Da Lang came back just now. They brought a lot of things. When they came back, they gave Sister-in-law a bag of cakes." Old Liu''s eyes flashed with greed. Then he glanced at the three younger ones, still holding mung bean cakes and eating them. But soon old Mrs. Liu became serious again and said, "Come back as soon as you come back. Even if there are good things, it won''t be my turn." "I said mother-in-law..." Chapter 52 Pregnant Chapter 52 Pregnancy "hehe!" Song Jin stood under the eaves and looked at Song Xiu with a half-smile. Song Xiu was full of provocative words and couldn''t continue talking. Old Liu didn''t have a good look towards Song Jin either. Thinking of Old Qin favoring Song Jin, Old Liu felt uncomfortable, "I mean, my wife, my family doesn''t support freeloaders. Now that I''m back, I should do some work." "Don''t worry, I won''t eat the Qin family''s meal in vain." The smile on Song Jin''s face did not diminish, but her eyes were cold. Then, Song Jin took out a piece of broken silver and said, "This is one tael of silver. It is the food money my husband and I have spent in the past few days since we came back. After all, my grandfather has long allowed our husband and wife to be independent." Old Liu went up and grabbed the silver. He glared at Song Jin again, turned around and returned to the main room. When Song Xiu saw that Song Jin had sent away the difficult old Mr. Liu with only one tael of silver, he was so angry that he chopped the pigs and vegetables with great force and stomped them until they flew up in the sky. Mrs. Lin came out and saw the pigs and vegetables splattered all over the floor. She opened her mouth to give a warning, but found Song Xiu''s ugly face, so she simply went into the kitchen to prepare dinner. After Song Jin looked at it, he felt extremely calm. He turned to find Li himself. As he approached the door, he deliberately coughed and asked, "Mom, sir, is it convenient for me to come in?" "Come in, come in! Come in!" With a brisk tone, Li asked Song Jin to enter the room. When Song Jin entered, she saw Qin Chi sitting aside, helping Li arrange her embroidery thread, while Li was smiling and obviously in a good mood. When Song Jin came in, Mrs. Li pushed a stool for her to sit on, and looked at Song Jin''s belly with a dark look. "How is Dalang''s wife feeling in good health lately?" Ms. Li asked implicitly. Song Jin felt embarrassed. Qin Chi''s lips curled up slightly, "Mom! If you want to hold a grandson, just say so." Mrs. Li rolled her eyes at her son, "As soon as I get older, I look forward to having my grandson soon. Is it wrong?" Qin Chi looked at Song Jin with a smile. Song Jin pretended not to see his teasing eyes. However, after Mrs. Li mentioned this, Song Jin remembered that Mrs. Li had been concerned about the pregnancy the last time she came back, and she did not come to Guishui at that time. When I went to the county town, something happened to the drug store again, so I was busy for many days. Song Jin subconsciously reached out and touched his lower abdomen. This made Li''s eyes widen immediately. Even Qin Chi was stunned. "Pregnant?" Li asked in surprise. It''s not surprising that the mother and son had this reaction. It was Song Jin''s expression and the little gesture of touching his abdomen that were too inducing. Song Jin calmed down, "I don''t know, it''s just that the one who is supposed to come this month hasn''t come yet." After saying that, she looked at Qin Chi with slightly red cheeks. When a man is here, its really hard to mention a womans menstruation openly. Qin Chi stood up suddenly and straightened his sleeves nervously, "Mom, I''ll take you to visit your third uncle." The subtext is to let Song Jin take a pulse. Qin''s third uncle''s medical skills are average, but there is no problem in picking up a happy pulse. "Go quickly, go quickly, remember to bring a bag of pastries for Third Uncle and Grandma to eat." Mrs. Li couldn''t wait to urge them over. The people in this room are happy. Song Xiu who was eavesdropping outside was different. His face was twisted with jealousy. How is it possible to be pregnant? How long has it been since Song Jin was pregnant? ! In her previous life, Song Jin was scolded for nothing. Although Song Jin said that Qin Mingsong had never touched her, Song Xiu still didn''t believe it. You must know that Song Jin''s appearance is first-class. Which man can resist beauty? Song Xiu thought that Song Jin just couldn''t have children, so she deliberately said that she would be a widow to clear her name. Qin Chi and Song Jin both came out. Song Xiu didn''t have time to think too much and quickly went back to the original place to chop vegetables. Just watching the two of them go back to their room, take another bag of things, and walk out of the Qin family''s courtyard, Song Xiu''s sinister eyes kept staring at them until they left. "It''s just a guess, it''s not really pregnant!" Song Xiu touched her belly again. She was not pregnant this time because she had just come to Guishui. So, Song Xiu resentfully chopped harder. Mrs. Liu came out and saw that the yard was full of pig vegetables. She picked up the broom beside her and said, "You are trying to die. You can''t do anything. Even if you chop some pig vegetables, it will be all over the yard!" "Ah, mother-in-law, what are you doing?" When Song Xiu saw Old Liu''s broom approaching, he immediately jumped up to avoid it. This is another round of chaos. Mrs. Lin peeked her head out of the kitchen and quickly retracted. The three little kids who were playing outside the courtyard gate, when they heard the commotion, they all lay down and poked their heads in the door, their eyes bright, thinking that Grandma was playing with her little aunt. "Mom! What''s going on?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! As soon as Qin Mingsong stepped into the courtyard, he saw this chaotic situation, and his handsome face was stained with boredom. "Ms. sir, save me!" Song Xiu quickly pounced on Qin Mingsong. But Old Liu stopped and threw the broom aside, "Si''er is back?" Old Mrs. Liu went up and pulled Song Xiu away, cursing and saying: "You are hugging me in the blue sky and in the white sun. You are not ashamed, but I am so ashamed." Song Xiu immediately stepped aside and stood there aggrievedly, like an abused little daughter-in-law. Qin Mingsong carried things into the house. Now his face is very dark and he doesn''t want to say a word. The old man and the young man did not dare to touch Qin Mingsong''s head again. Three little ones stood outside the courtyard gate, eagerly watching Qin Mingsong enter. Wu Lang said with a sweet voice: "I like my eldest brother, but I don''t like my uncle." "Me too, my uncle has no sugar or pastries." Shiro''s face was filled with approval. Erya nodded her little head accordingly. When the three brothers, Boss Qin and Brother Qin, came back, they happened to overhear the three small conversations and looked at each other, funny and angry. As soon as Qin Laoer mentioned it, he slipped away from Wu Lang. He patted his little **** gently and cursed with a smile: "You''re a greedy little cat. If you have breasts, you''re your mother. No matter how big or small you are, you know? If your mother hears this, a meal of stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots will be yours." "Second brother, how old is Wulang, haha!" Qin Laosan smiled and picked up Erya and kissed her sweetly, making the little girl giggle. After entering the house, he put the tools in the field back into the woodshed. Boss Qin turned around and said, "Dad hasn''t come back from the fields yet?" "He said he would go take a look and he will probably be back soon." Qin Laoer replied. It didn''t take long. Old man Qin also returned home. Everyone also knows that Qin Chi and his wife are back today, but they just went out again. Qin Mingsong came out of the house and took the initiative to talk to Boss Qin and the others. All they talked about was about farming. When Qin Chi and Song Jin came back together, they saw the four brothers sitting in the courtyard chatting, and the atmosphere was rare and harmonious. Qin Chi went up to greet the elders, but before Qin Chi could say anything more, Li came out of the house in a rare eagerness. "Da Lang, how are you?" Under Li''s expectant gaze, Qin Chi nodded with a smile. He leaned into Mrs. Li''s ear and whispered: "Third uncle said that the month is still light, so we should pay attention." "Okay, okay, you have to pay attention..." Li''s words were filled with excitement, and her eyes were filled with tears. (End of chapter) Chapter 53 suddenly Chapter 53 Suddenly Song Jin stood aside and smiled without saying a word, but the joy on his face could not be concealed. "Congratulations, Dalang." When everyone still didn''t quite understand, Qin Mingsong stood up, walked towards Qin Chi with a smile, patted him on the shoulder and said, "After so many years of reading, I finally didn''t read in vain. I won this year''s county case in one fell swoop." head." Song Jin''s heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He quickly looked at Qin Chi. Sure enough, Qin Chi''s face sank. The Li family next to Qin Chi even lost her smile, including Boss Qin''s expression, which changed drastically. Instead, Old Man Qin and others looked surprised. "What Si''er said is true?" As the head of the family, Old Man Qin stood up happily and asked. Qin Laoer then said, "Yes, is this true? Why didn''t we hear the news?" "I didn''t hear what the village chief said." Qin Laosan thought that in the past, the village chief and the elders of the clan would pay attention to this kind of thing. There''s no reason why the village wouldn''t receive any news about such a big thing as being the head of the county case. At this time, no one knew that Qin Chi had intercepted the news, but he had not calculated that Qin Mingsong would suddenly come back and happened to hear the news. Qin Mingsong smiled and said, "It''s all my fault. I forgot to mention it just now. On my way back today, I happened to meet my former classmate. He took part in the county examination, so I asked a few more questions." Qin Chi sneered in his heart. How many more questions did you ask? Over the years, my brother-in-law has become more and more hypocritical. As a bystander, Song Jin clearly saw the coldness in Qin Chi''s eyes. Could it be that there was a gap between him and Qin Mingsong? As for Qin Mingsong, Song Jin really didn''t see any problem. After all, as an uncle, he was happy for his nephew when he saw that he had won the first place in the county examination, so it was natural to say congratulations. Qin Chi died too early in his previous life, and Song Jin had no chance to see anything. But maybe we can understand it in this life? Song Jin made up his mind to ask again when he returned to his room in the evening. "daughter in law?" Boss Qin shouted in panic. He immediately caught Li who fainted. Qin Chi was also shocked, "Mom!" "Hurry and invite your third uncle." Song Jin said quickly. Qin Laoer hurriedly said: "I''ll go and invite my third uncle. The eldest brother will take the sister-in-law back to the house first." Boss Qin picked up Mrs. Li and hurried into the house. Qin Chi quickly followed, walked a few steps, and then turned to look at Song Jin, "Madam, I''m going to the kitchen to see if there is boiling water. You can help me get some brown sugar from the house." Song Jin knew as soon as he heard that he wanted to make brown sugar water. He responded quickly and went into the house. Soon, Song Jin opened one of the cages and took out half a catty of brown sugar. When I went out, I saw Mrs. Lin in the kitchen just putting boiling water into a porcelain bowl. Qin Chi took the brown sugar from Song Jin''s hand, made a bowl of brown sugar water, and hurried to the main room. Song Jin put away the remaining brown sugar. "Don''t worry, sister-in-law will be fine." Lin suddenly spoke out to comfort Song Jin. Song Jin looked at Mrs. Lin and then thought of the Qin family. It was the father and son who were nervous. Although the others were anxious, they were not surprised. Mrs. Lin thought that Song Jin had just married and there were still some things she didn''t know, so she explained: "Your mother-in-law has always been in poor health. She often fainted from the weakness. The doctor said that if she faints, make a bowl of sugar water to relieve her pain." "Does this work?" Song Jin had only heard that brown sugar could nourish the body, but he had never heard of anyone using it to treat illnesses. Ms. Lin said: "It''s really effective. My sister-in-law''s health has improved a lot in the past few years." Mrs. Lin remembered that when she first married into the Qin family, Mrs. Li was very ill and a sickly beauty. Anyone who saw her would think that she would not live long. It was also Qin Chi who found a miracle doctor named Jing to treat Li for a long time. He only got better after taking good care of himself. Qin Chi''s body has also been healed a lot. This was the first time Song Jin knew these things. Then she got another pot of boiled water and brought it to the main room. When they passed by, Boss Qin and Qin Chi were feeding Mrs. Li some sugar water. Ms. Li is in a coma, but she is conscious. She will swallow it subconsciously when given sugar water. Qin Chi was squatting on the edge of the bed, holding a bowl in both hands. Boss Qin helped Mrs. Li and leaned on his shoulder, feeding him spoon by spoon. The father and son cooperated very well, and their movements were not unfamiliar. It''s obviously not the first time this has been done. Song Jin put the pot of boiling water he brought in on the table in the room and asked softly: "Mr. sir, is there anything I can do for you?" "Go to the cabinet on the left, take out a pack of medicinal materials, and ask your third aunt to help fry it." Qin Chi originally wanted to do it himself, but as Song Jin''s daughter-in-law, it was not good to do nothing. Song Jin followed what Qin Chi said. Opening the cabinet on the left, I saw three packages of medicinal materials inside, all wrapped. Song Jin took a pack and asked Qin Chi. Qin Chi said yes, and she took it to the kitchen. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! When Mrs. Lin heard that it was cooked for Mr. Li, she came over to take over. Not disturbing Lin''s decoction, Song Jin walked out of the kitchen and saw Qin Laoer and Qin''s third uncle coming in. Qin''s third uncle heard that it was Li who fainted. Originally, he didn''t want to come. After all, Li''s illness was a difficult and complicated disease that he couldn''t cure at all. However, Qin Laoer came to invite him, and he had no choice but to make this trip. Qin''s third uncle went directly to Dafang''s room. Qin Laoer did not follow him into the house. He only peeked inside at the door of the house. He returned to the yard and stood guard like everyone else. Although everyone is accustomed to Li''s situation, they are still somewhat concerned. "Dad, I heard that you are about to have your great-grandson!" Qin Laoer came to the old man and said heheily. Old Qin was stunned, "What did you say?" "You said you were going to have a grandson soon." Qin Laoer said carelessly, "I went to see my third uncle, and he actually asked me if my sister-in-law fainted from being too happy?" The smart man suddenly remembered what Li Shi had said when he came out in a hurry and asked Qin Chi. Just then Song Jin came out of the kitchen. As a result, he enjoyed the attention of everyone. Old Qin looked at Song Jin expectantly, "Daughter-in-law, what do you say? Are you really...pregnant?" "Yes, Grandpa." Song Jin answered with a good attitude. Old Qin''s face turned into a chrysanthemum smile, "Okay, I''m going to have a great-grandson!" "Dad, our family is blessed with a double happiness today!" Qin Mingsong continued. Song Xiu, who had just stepped out of the house, heard that Song Jin was indeed pregnant, and the jealousy in her eyes was about to overflow. "Sister! Congratulations." Song Xiu approached Song Jin, with her back to Qin Mingsong and others, and whispered in an evil voice, "It''s just that this blessing is so great that I can''t handle it. My mother-in-law even fainted." When Song Jin heard this, he was so angry that he almost slapped Song Xiu. But with everyone watching, Song Jin endured it. Fortunately, everyone was not surprised that Li was in a coma. No one would be foolish enough to blame this matter on her. Song Jin counterattacked calmly: "Xiu''er, remember last time you said you already had something in your stomach. Your third uncle is at home. Do you want to ask him to check your pulse?" "Don''t worry, sister." Song Xiu gritted his teeth and said, then twisted his waist and returned to the house. Song Jin sneered. With her modest skills, she still has the nerve to act like a monster in front of her. (End of chapter) Chapter 54 Lee Chapter 54 Li Although the Qin family is experiencing double happiness today. Regarding Li''s fainting, no one was overjoyed, and everyone even restrained their smiles. During dinner, the eldest brother did not go to the main room to eat. Song Jin sent the meals to the big house. By this time, Mrs. Li had already woken up. In fact, after feeding half a bowl of sugar water, Mrs. Li had already recovered. After checking his pulse, Qin''s third uncle said that he would be fine when he woke up, and asked Li to take good care of her carefully and not to be overjoyed again. Qin Chi personally sent Qin''s third uncle back and knelt in front of Li''s bed. Li lay on the bed with her back to Qin Chi without saying a word. Boss Qin was also helpless at this time. Before, he couldn''t understand why Li didn''t let Dalang take part in the imperial examination. He once asked, but Li kept silent. Out of love for his wife, Boss Qin did not force her. But today when he heard that his son had been convicted of a county crime, he was not only worried about his wife''s health, but he was also happy. There are no parents in the world who dont want their sons to become talented. Only his wife is different. Whenever I mention the imperial examination and becoming a scholar, I feel worried. Boss Qin knew that his son had given in all these years just because he was worried about Li''s health. This year, he probably held it back and dared to take the county examination without telling his family. "Dad, please go and guard the door for me. I have something to say to my mother alone." Qin Chi, who was kneeling in front of the bed, suddenly spoke. Boss Qin nodded and stood up, looking at Song Jin who had just entered. Song Jin put the food gently on the table and quietly exited the room. Boss Qin stepped out of the threshold, turned around and closed the door, then smiled at Song Jin reassuringly, "Thank you for your hard work. Now you are not hungry, please go back to the main room to eat." "good." Song Jin saluted Boss Qin. Turned around and left. Eating is fake, leaving her is real. Song Jin still has this kind of sharp eyesight. inside the house. Qin Chi was silent for a long time, and finally spoke, "Mother, my son is unfilial and disobeys your wishes. But my son has already got married, and he wants to choose his own future path, instead of just doing nothing as mother wishes. Pass." "You have grown up and can fly, right?" Mrs. Li turned around and wanted to get up, but she was too weak. Qin Chi quickly moved forward and helped Li sit up against the bedpost. Li raised her hand and waved away his hand. This is obviously lingering anger. Qin Chi knelt down half-kneeling in front of Mrs. Li again, closed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "My mother has not explained the reason these years, but actually... my son knew it when he was very young." Hearing this, Mrs. Li suddenly opened her eyes wide, "What did you say? You already knew it?!" "When my son was six years old, my grandfather''s people found me. Doctor Jing was the person my grandfather sent here, as well as the gentleman who taught my son over the years." Qin Chi hasn''t finished speaking yet. Li Shi clutched her chest and was almost out of breath. Qin Chi quickly fed the remaining half bowl of brown sugar water to Mr. Li to drink. "Mom, don''t get excited. It''s my fault. I shouldn''t keep hiding this from you." Qin Chi didn''t hide it intentionally, but Li''s health was not good, which almost became his heartache. Over the years, Dr. Jing has helped nurse him back to health, and he has finally recovered a lot. Before going to the imperial examination, Qin Chi also asked Doctor Jing, otherwise, he would not have played such a trick of killing first and then reporting later. Li''s eyes were filled with tears. It''s just that she didn''t cry out forcibly, and at the same time, there was indelible fear and shrinkage deep in her phoenix eyes. "Chi''er, you don''t know... you don''t know anything." Li finally covered her face and cried bitterly, but she restrained herself from crying loudly. When Mrs. Li cried. Qin Chi was not nervous, but relaxed. Mr. Jing said that Mrs. Li was depressed and it was difficult to fully maintain her health. He also said that crying is better than not crying, and not crying is more harmful to the body. There are some things that Qin Chi really doesn''t know. When he was a child, the situation in his grandfather''s house was always whatever his grandfather wanted him to know. Later, when Qin Chi cultivated his own confidants and forces, he realized that his grandfather''s situation was like walking on thin ice. You are the only prince of the Great Xia Dynasty. It is said that he won the favor and trust of the emperor, commanded hundreds of thousands of troops in the northwest, held a high position, and guarded the northwest for most of his life for the Great Xia Dynasty. This old man should be deeply loved by the people, but his relationship with him is particularly shallow. children born in these years. Either they were born without fate, or they died one after another before they grew up. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! It was not easy to raise a son and a daughter from his first wife. However, the eldest son was born sick and was bedridden for many years. The only healthy daughter also suffered an accident, and outsiders thought she was dead. Only he persisted in searching and finally found Qinjiagou. The person found him, but he didn''t dare to recognize him. In the eyes of outsiders, my grandfather''s killing was too serious, which affected his descendants. Qin Chi didn''t believe a word of this statement. If there were too many coincidences, it wouldn''t be a coincidence. It was a deliberate plan, but the person behind the scenes was too clever. Li Shi obviously knew something, so he was afraid in his heart. A noble princess would rather marry a villager than get all the wealth and splendor. Something must have happened. "Mom, don''t cry, my son has grown up." Qin Chi took out a handkerchief and gently wiped his mother''s tears, "A stable life is never given by others, but something we strive for ourselves." "Over the years, my son has understood that my mother is suffering, but she has never been able to relieve your worries, and my son is also sad." "There are some things that can''t be solved by hiding from them. Mom knows that, right?" Qin Chi can understand Li''s thoughts and her actions. At the same time, he also knows that she is afraid in her heart, but she always hides her unwillingness. If Mrs. Li really wants her son to live an ordinary life. Why bother to provide for your son to study every year? Even though Mr. Li often deceived himself and others, he said that studying was not only for fame and fortune, but also for making people wise and shameful. But theres no need to let him study now, right? Li murmured: "You don''t know, you don''t know..." "I know, mother!" Qin Chi stepped forward and half hugged Mrs. Li, "Grandpa is already old. He has been unable to protect his son for many years. If I continue to be inactive and am found here, I will have no choice but to be slaughtered, just like those of mine." Uncles and aunts." Upon hearing this, Mrs. Li cried even harder. Qin Chi said nothing more. Li''s reaction confirmed his suspicion. Mrs. Li cried and fainted. Qin Chi had no choice but to ask someone to pick up Dr. Jing. Doctor Jing had already arranged for him to be settled in the township. It only takes half an hour to pick someone up in a carriage. Doctor Jing came over to check Mrs. Li''s pulse. Knowing that Mr. Li had already taken the medicine he had prescribed before, he did not write any more prescriptions. Then Qin Chi asked him to stay at Qin''s house for one night on the grounds that it was dark and the road was difficult to walk. This rhetoric is also for the rest of the Qin family. Doctor Jing had no intention of going back. He was one of the few people who knew Li''s identity. If she had any good intentions, no one who was secretly arranged to come to Huizhou would survive. Chapter 55 Dead of night Chapter 55 Dead of Night It''s quiet at night. The lights in the Qin family''s main room were still on. Song Jin did not wait until Qin Chi returned to the room. Walking to the door with gentle steps, Song Jin looked outside through a crack in the door. When he saw two figures outside, his hand that was about to open the door couldn''t help but pause. Outside the door are Qin Chi and Doctor Jing. The two people spoke in such low voices that Song Jin couldn''t hear clearly, but she could clearly see Doctor Jing''s humble attitude in front of Qin Chi. At this time, Qin Chi was like a majestic mountain peak, standing erect and seemingly containing endless power, which was awe-inspiring. The usually gentle eyes seemed to hide a different depth, as if they could see into people''s hearts. And there is always a smile on his lips, so calm and confident... Some details do not tolerate careful consideration and cannot withstand serious scrutiny. Song Jin guessed that Qin Chi had a secret, but this secret seemed to be far beyond her imagination, which made her think about the abnormality when she first met Qin Chi. Not only did Song Jin distrust Qin Chi. Qin Chi also never trusted her. Song Jin once again clearly realized that although she and Qin Chi were husband and wife, they were actually just living together, guarding each other, and not having a deep relationship with each other. Originally she wanted to ask him about the gap between him and Qin Mingsong, but now she thought it was wrong to think about it again. It is truly an act of transcendence. Song Jin slowly put down the hand holding the door. Back on the bed. I dont plan to do anything else, lets rest first. Song Jin was drowsily asleep when she noticed someone lying down next to her. The familiarity made her feel at ease, so she continued to fall asleep. There were still people who couldn''t sleep that night. Like Song embroidery. When Song Jin learned that she was pregnant, Song Xiu was going crazy with jealousy. He has been pestering Qin Mingsong all night. Just as Qin Chi guessed at the beginning, if you make an exception once, there will be countless times. Qin Mingsong hesitated and stayed with her for half the night. However, Song Xiu was not allowed to scream during the whole process. Sometimes when Song Xiu got carried away, Qin Mingsong would cover his mouth. In fact, he was so embarrassed last time, which left a deep impression on him. At this time, Qin Mingsong still didnt know. The Qin family didn''t listen. The two secret guards who came with Dr. Jing listened to the whole process. As for what the secret guard knew, Qin Chi naturally knew it too. It''s just that Qin Chi has no intention of thinking about others now, and is staring at Song Jin who is sleeping soundly. Is this really big-hearted? In fact, there was another reason, but Qin Chi didn''t want to admit it subconsciously. So, early the next morning. The Qin family members were concerned about Li''s condition and were relieved to learn that the problem was not serious. However, not long after they were relieved, Qin Chi fell ill again! It was Song Jin who first discovered it. The person was still awake and developed a high fever. Song Jin was so frightened that she hurriedly went out to find Dr. Jing. Doctor Jing and Erlang Sanlang slept together last night, and they also went to bed very late at night, so they got up a little late. When he was called out, he heard that Qin Chi was ill! Dr. Jing panicked and quickly got up and walked over there while getting dressed. He didn''t forget to ask, "What''s going on? What''s the disease?" "My forehead is very hot, I''m sweating a lot, my face is not good, and I can''t wake up..." Song Jin didn''t know if this was a sign of Qin Chi''s illness. This movement naturally attracted the attention of other people in the Qin family, especially the fact that Song Jin was pregnant now. She looked so flustered that it was no small matter at first glance. "Da Lang''s wife, what''s wrong?" Xiao Liu asked, "You can''t fuss when you''re just pregnant." Song Jin was about to follow Doctor Jing into the house. Doctor Jing suddenly stopped in his steps. The little old man looked back at Song Jin and blocked her, "Are you happy?" Song Jin nodded. Doctor Jing then waved to her, "Then don''t come in. Pregnant women should be careful to avoid getting sick." These words stopped Song Jin. Qin Laosan came over and asked, "What happened?" "My husband is not feeling well. I asked Doctor Jing to come and take a look. He asked me not to follow him into the house." Song Jin said truthfully. Xiao Liu and others also knew that Qin Chi was sick. "This is strange. In previous years, Dalang mostly got sick in spring and winter. This is early autumn, why is he sick?" Xiao Liu murmured suspiciously. Others thought so too. Song Jin saw that others were not surprised. It was similar to Mr. Li''s attitude when she was sick. There was worry on everyone''s face, but not much. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Ms. Lin, go make some rice porridge for Da Lang to eat when he wakes up." Old Qin strode out of the main room and went directly to Qin Chi''s room. Mrs. Lin responded quickly and turned back to the kitchen. Song Jin stood at the door of the house. I didn''t know what to do for a while. The door was not closed. Standing at the door, you could see Doctor Jing taking Qin Chi''s pulse, then taking out a small medicine bottle from the medicine box, pouring out a medicine and feeding it to Qin Chi. "Don''t worry, Dalang gets sick two or three times every year. You''ll get better as you get used to it." Xiao Liu pulled Song Jin and comforted him. Song Jin''s mouth twitched. Can you still get used to this illness? Not far away, Song Xiu poked his head in front of the door, the gloating on his face was unmistakable. When Song Jin looked at her. Song Xiu put away his gloating expression. He put on a worried look and came to Song Jin''s side, pretending to be concerned. When Mrs. Liu walked away, Song Xiu''s expression immediately changed. "You should not be pregnant if the sick girl is about to die. Oh, this little pitiful little girl will have no father before she is born!" Its true that a dog cant change its habit of eating shit! Just like Song Xiu''s current state. Song Jin glanced at her and said: "Song Xiu, a person''s tolerance is limited. You are always jumping around in front of me. Do you believe that I will kill you first before I become a widow?" "Heh, Song Jin, are you no longer pretending? You''re a pretentious person. Fortunately, I knew you were cruel and ruthless at a very young age." Song Xiu once witnessed Song Jin''s treatment of his servants. The man was beaten until he was covered in blood. Song Xiu was so frightened that night that he had nightmares, but Song Jin didn''t even blink. If Song Jin knew what Song Xiu was thinking, he would definitely scold her. Punishing a slave who cheated on her could be called vicious, so wouldn''t she want to go to heaven? Song Jin actually wanted to slap Song Xiu right now, but she was pregnant and couldn''t fight without getting angry. "Song Xiu, you''re a mess yourself, but you still have time to meddle in other people''s affairs." Song Jin looked in the direction of the courtyard door. Song Xiu subconsciously followed her gaze. Shockingly, I saw Chen Donger''s figure wandering outside! Song Xiu''s attention was immediately diverted, and he angrily walked to the door of the yard, and began to taunt Chen Dong''er in a strange way. "Hey! The unmarried eldest daughter of Village Chief Chen''s family is walking in front of my house again!" Song Xiu must have learned a lesson and never used curse words when taunting people, "It''s early in the morning. It''s so leisurely. Everyone in the village will envy you." Song Jin wanted to say that Song Xiu had a brain. With just these words, Chen Donger had no chance to ruin his reputation and hold Qin Mingsong responsible. He was completely defeated as soon as he appeared on the stage. But Song Jin also knew something. An idle mind produces idle things, and an idle mind produces right and wrong. Song Xiu always comes to her to make her presence felt because she is too idle! Chapter 56 Old problem Chapter 56 Its an old problem "What''s happening outside?" Mrs. Li drank the dark concoction, and her mouth was full of bitterness, which made her frown and said, "Go outside and take a look." "I''ll go and see you after you finish drinking the medicine." Boss Qin''s eyes were full of affection for Mr. Li. Compared with what happens outside, no matter what it is, it is not as important as my wife. Mrs. Li glared at him angrily, "Go quickly! This medicine is too bitter. I''ll drink it slowly first." "The medicine needs to be suffocated in one sip to stop the pain." This is just a lie to a three-year-old child. What should be bitter will still be bitter, its a matter of how long. Just at this moment, there were footsteps outside the door, and it was Old Liu who came in with a bowl of water in each hand and a gloomy face, "Boss, what are you doing in the room? Your son has fallen ill. The next moment, the medicine bowl fell to the ground. A crisp and shattering sound! Li hurriedly put on her shoes and clothes, "Chi''er is sick? Why didn''t you tell me earlier!" I got up too quickly, my vision went dark, and I almost fell again. Fortunately, Boss Qin hugged her and said, "Daughter-in-law, don''t worry, Doctor Jing is still living at home. Da Lang will be fine." Hearing this, Li''s nervous mood calmed down a little, "Please help me go over and take a look." "It''s better for me to go, and you can have a good rest in the house. Dalang doesn''t want you dragging your sick body to see him." The couple had been together day and night for many years, and Boss Qin knew how to comfort Mrs. Li best. Soon, Ms. Li lay back on the bed. Old Liu glanced at the two of them with disgust. A seriously ill child gave birth to a slightly ill child. The thought of this old Mrs. Liu made her angry. Just such a mother and son destroyed the good fortune of the old Qin family. "Ms. Li, come and drink this water." Old Mrs. Liu handed a bowl of water to Mrs. Li. Then give the other bowl to Boss Qin. Li took it and saw the dirty water inside, as if clean water was sprinkled with fire ashes. She frowned and asked, "Mother-in-law, what kind of water is this?" "Fu Shui is very effective. I spent a lot of money on this, and the whole family wants to drink it." As soon as Old Liu said this. Boss Qin quickly took the bowl from Mrs. Li''s hand and said, "Mom, if my wife doesn''t want to drink, give it to me." So he drank two bowls of water in one go. Boss Qin didn''t dare to give Mrs. Li a drink of this thing of unknown origin, but he couldn''t go against me, so he had to suffer it himself, which made Mr. Liu very angry. A slap hit Boss Qin on the shoulder. "You idiot, you are seeking death! You drank one portion for each person. What did Mrs. Li drink? This is the talisman water that can ward off disasters!" Old Mr. Liu spent an unprecedented amount of money. This shows that she attaches great importance to this talisman. Old Liu said angrily, "It''s not Li''s fault anyway. She has a lot of good things and two shortcomings, and it has nothing to do with me." Even if you die! It''s just a good time to marry a strong man for the eldest son, and maybe add a few more grandchildren. When Song Jin saw Mr. Liu holding the two bowls of things, he knew something was not going well. He came over and saw Boss Qin''s operation, and then learned that it was Fu Shui. Many people in this country believe this. If something happens at home, or to ward off illness or disaster, someone will rescue a talisman. The Song family has been dealing with medicinal materials for many years. For things like talismans that can cure diseases, I am in awe but will not use them. Mrs. Liu came out of the main room and started to drink to other people in the family. Don''t say that she didn''t drink it herself. The first bowl she got back was Mrs. Liu''s own, and then she gave it to Old Man Qin. Then came the big family couple. Doctor Jing was guarding Qin Chi''s place, and Fu Shui couldn''t get in. Mrs. Liu went to find a second and third bedroom. One person drank a bowl, and even Erya wanted to drink. Qin Mingsong held the bowl of talisman water and refused in his heart, but Old Liu had a tough attitude and had no choice but to drink it. Song Xiu looked at it and hid far away. Fortunately, Mrs. Liu didn''t let her drink too. Little Mrs. Liu looked at Old Mrs. Liu and said, "Mom, there are three people at home who haven''t drank yet. Why is there only one left?" "This belongs to Dalang." Old Liu said with a sullen face. So there is no Song Brocade and Song Embroidery? Little Liu rolled his eyes and slipped outside to inquire. Not to mention, she actually found out. The eldest grandson was expected to have a bright future, but he was about to have a great-grandson. Two things can make Mr. Liu''s face look bright and he can boast in front of his old sisters for a while. It happened that Mrs. Li fainted, and Mrs. Liu felt very unlucky. People in the village are superstitious. Before dawn, Mr. Liu went to the old blind man at the foot of the mountain to tell his fortune. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The old blind man is very famous in this area and is said to be very good at telling fortunes. Originally, Mr. Liu suspected that the Song sisters were the bad guys. As a result, the old blind man said that the Song sisters were blessed girls, that the Qin family''s blessings were shallow and could not handle such great blessings, etc. He almost said that the Qin family was a family without blessings. The old blind man also used Li''s fainting as an example. It is said that Mr. Li was born weak and would be the first to suffer misfortune. It will be someone elses turn later! When Mr. Liu heard this, he thought it was okay. He immediately spent one tael of silver and bought sixteen talismans. When he hurried back again, he heard that Qin Chi was sick again, and his legs were weak with fear. Isnt this exactly what the old blind man said? One bad luck after another? ! So, Old Liu immediately served a bowl of talisman water to each person. After a while, the last bowl of water was brought to Qin Chi, but it was Dr. Jing who took it from the door, "Sir, although there will be no big problem if you drink this talisman water, I might as well not drink it." "Oh, then you fell." Doctor Jing bent down and poured water under the bed. Qin Chi sat on the bed, looked at the door, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Where is my wife, were you kicked out?" "You are sick. She is pregnant, so normally she should avoid it." Dr. Jing said patiently. Qin Chi looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile, "Mr. Jing, our Qin family is only so big. If you kick my wife out, where will she sleep tonight? She is now a golden lady with two bodies." "Well?" Doctor Jing thought it right and asked tentatively: "I''ll go out later and tell you that your illness doesn''t matter?" "Whatever you say." In short, he and his wife cannot be allowed to sleep in separate beds. Originally, that woman had a big heart. If she were to stay far away from him, she would definitely turn around and forget about him in a corner. "Are you hungry, sir? Third aunt has cooked rice porridge. Do you want a bowl?" Song Jin''s gentle voice came from outside the door. Doctor Jing stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Young Master is so lucky." Qin Chiren had already lied back on the bed, his aura tightened, and he looked as sickly and frail as Song Jin had seen in the morning. He signaled Doctor Jing''s response with his eyes. Doctor Jing went to open the door himself. "Come in, this is your husband''s old problem. It''s nothing serious. I said that before because I was worried that he had a cold syndrome." Doctor Jing explained patiently. Song Jin thanked her sincerely and went in with a bowl of white porridge. Dr. Jing wisely carried the medicine box out and went to give Li a follow-up consultation. Chapter 57 This made Qin Chi laugh out loud Chapter 57 This made Qin Chi laugh out loud "I added a little salt to this porridge." Song Jin carefully tested the temperature before passing the porridge to Qin Chi. Qin Chi didn''t show any pretense, took the porridge and finished it. Song Jin took the empty bowl and put it aside, "How are you? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?" "It''s not uncomfortable, I''m used to it." Qin Chi''s tone was calm, but Song Jin felt uncomfortable hearing it. Then he remembered the day when they got married, when Qin Chi said that he was not going to die soon. His expression was similar to now, as if he was mentally prepared for the future. Song Jin couldn''t help but said: "You will get better." Qin Chi smiled helplessly, quietly held Song Jin''s hand, and said comfortingly: "Yes, it will be fine. I also want to watch our children grow up, and then personally enlighten and educate them. When they study, they also need to be taught how to be filial to their wives. When Song Jin heard this, he felt shy. No matter how calm he looked, he couldn''t help but raise his phoenix eyes and glance at Qin Chi. At this moment, Song Jin didn''t even realize that, with that gentle glance, her eyes were watery and she looked forward, and her jade-white cheeks gained a hint of crimson. In Qin Chi''s eyes, she was as gorgeous as a peach or a plum, so beautiful that it moved people''s hearts. Qin Chi has been extremely intelligent since he was a child and has been taught by famous teachers. He has long guessed that he is in a dangerous situation. It is like a giant sword hanging above his head, and he does not know when it will fall. This sense of crisis prompts him to grow rapidly and prepare for a rainy day. It turned out that Qin Chi had no intention of getting married and having children. However, Song Jin broke into his life unexpectedly... "You should have a good rest first. I''ll go to the kitchen to see if your medicine is ready." Song Jin picked up the empty bowl and headed out. When he turned around, his other hand was grabbed by Qin Chi. Qin Chi raised his eyes and looked at her, "Don''t you ask, madam?" "Ask, what''s the question?" Song Jin asked hesitantly. Qin Chi finally understood. But he was so naughty that he suddenly wanted to break the **** tacit understanding, "Madam, you know, sometimes I feel that you are clearly standing in front of me, but I feel far away. Sometimes I even wonder if you have never regarded yourself as a member of the Qin family. ? Song Jin''s face changed slightly. This was tacitly understood. Qin Chi suddenly asked, and the nature changed. "I used to hear that people who are sick are most likely to have random thoughts. I still didn''t believe it, but today I believe it." Song Jin sat back on the edge of the bed with a gentle manner, and tucked Qin Chi in the quilt thoughtfully. Qin Chi refused to let her avoid the important and take the easy. "Is this the wrong answer, madam?" "We already have children, what are you worried about?" Song Jin gently patted the quilt on his body, as if to comfort Qin Chi. This made Qin Chi laugh out loud! He didn''t believe Song Jin and was curious as to why he wanted to take the county examination without telling his family. In addition, after the uncle said it, Song Jin''s cleverness would not have guessed his mother''s attitude. But this person just regarded himself as an outsider, didn''t ask or say anything, and just did what he needed to do. This is obviously what Qin Chi hopes. But why is he so angry? "Okay, madam, go out and do your business." Qin Chi asked Song Jin to leave in frustration. Song Jin stood up and bowed slightly to Qin Chi, then picked up the empty bowl and walked out. But with every step he took, he felt like a light on his back, until he stepped out of the threshold and closed the door. Then he let out a long sigh of relief. In a blink of an eye, she almost ran into a man''s arms. Fortunately, Song Jin reacted quickly and reached out to push hard. Yes, push people away! Qin Mingsong was pushed, but he managed to stabilize himself by holding on to the eaves pillar in time. Song Xiu happened to see it, and went to help Qin Mingsong, "Sister, what are you doing? Why do you push my husband? You usually don''t want to see me, and I don''t care about you, but why are you angry with my husband? "I''m sorry." Song Jin''s eyebrows furrowed slightly, "He suddenly stood behind me. If I didn''t push him away, I almost bumped into him. I am a person with two bodies now. It is better for him to fall than for me to fall." Old Liu ran over and was about to curse. As soon as he heard Song Jin''s words, he suddenly lost all his anger. That''s right. The fourth son is important, and the great-grandson is also important. Old Mrs. Liu asked stiffly: "How is Si''er? He didn''t fall anywhere." "It''s okay, my mother is worried." Qin Mingsong acted like a gentleman again and showed concern for the old Liu family to show his filial piety. Song Jin just wanted to say one thing. affectation! Its so artificial! Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! It''s just that I almost fell, but I didn''t really fall! Sanlang, who came closer, put his head to the ground and asked: "What kind of injury can my uncle suffer? Is it a spiritual injury? Then he needs to be treated by Doctor Jing." "puff-" Someone seemed to be laughing, but Saburo looked left and right and didn''t see anyone laughing. The secret guard on the roof was extremely upset. He couldn''t hold it back for a moment, and wanted to apologize to the young master later. As a secret guard, he couldn''t help but laugh, which was considered a mistake. When Saburo opened his small mouth, he wanted to say something. Erlang ran over quickly, blocked his mouth, and quickly apologized to Qin Mingsong: "Uncle, you have a lot of things, don''t blame Saburo''s mouth, he always says whatever comes to mind." "Why are you covering my mouth, brother?" Sanlang finally broke free from Erlang''s hand and said loudly and unconvincingly, "Sister-in-law, how strong a woman can be. Besides, I have seen it with my own eyes. My uncle managed to reach the pillar and didn''t really fall." "You kid are still yelling?" Erlang really couldn''t save his stupid brother. "Uncle, don''t argue with him. I''ll apologize to you on his behalf." Qin Mingsong looked calm and didn''t seem to be angry. He said with a smile: "Erlang, Sanlang is right. I didn''t fall. It was Xiu''er who was too worried that caused the misunderstanding. What''s more, my uncle was also wrong just now. He was in a hurry to see Dalang. , but he didnt notice the elder mans wife coming out of the house. "See, I was right!" Sanlang raised his little head proudly, "I often say that my uncle is a scholar and the most reasonable. Do you think so?" "Hurry up, go, go talk to your grandpa." Old Liu cursed angrily. However, this kind of scolding is different from the usual scolding of several wives, with the intimacy of the elders towards the younger ones. Song Jin knew that no matter how bad Mr. Liu''s character was, he still cared about his second wife''s grandchildren. It is said that when Qin Chi was young, Mrs. Liu also loved her and wanted to take her to her side to raise her, but Mrs. Li refused to let her go. In addition, Mrs. Liu often found her unhappy with Mrs. Li, so Qin Chi was not willing to get close to her. Old Liu. The human heart is made of flesh. Gradually, Mrs. Liu''s love for her eldest grandson faded away. "Mingzhong! You have a guest at home!" A man shouted outside the Qin family yard. Boss Qin strode out of the room with a rare sense of relief on his honest face. Dr. Jing took Ms. Li''s pulse just now and said she was getting better and there was nothing serious. Everyone else is curious. Are there guests coming to Qin''s house? Boss Qin went out and brought back three young people. Chapter 58 A visitor comes to visit Chapter 58 A Visitor Song Jin recognized one of them. It was Qin Chis classmate Lu Yanji. The other two were dressed well, and they looked like they were from well-off families. They were followed by four entourages, each carrying gifts that came to their door. "Is this Qi''an''s home?" one of them asked curiously. Another young man in brocade clothes said: "That should be the case. I heard Qi''an say that his home is in Qinjiagou. According to me, he hurried home as soon as the results were released. He is probably lazy." "Haha, don''t accuse Qian unjustly. I suspect he is avoiding the three of us." Lu Yanji said jokingly. The young man in brocade clothes approached Boss Qin and said, "Uncle, are you Qi''an''s father? What is he doing at home?" "Dalang is sick and is resting in the house." Boss Qin expressed his gratitude honestly, "Thank you for coming all the way to see him." The three of them were stunned at the same time. This time I came here with the intention of catching Qin Chi and asking him to treat him or take them to the mountains to play. It didn''t occur to me that the person was sick. So, there is nothing wrong with returning to the countryside to recuperate. The boy in brocade clothes apologized: "Uncle, I''m sorry, we didn''t know Qi''an was sick." "How can I blame you for this?" Boss Qin waved his hand, indicating that they didn''t have to do this. A group of people entered the courtyard. The entourage placed the gifts in the main room. Old Mrs. Liu''s eyes were shining, and her heart was ready to move. Unexpectedly, when Old Qin looked over at him, she suddenly lost all thoughts. Then Old Man Qin was worried that she would embarrass the Old Qin family, so he drove her out of the main room, "Why don''t you go make a pot of tea for Dalang''s classmates? I remember that Dalang bought me a bag of tea last time, and I just went to take it out for later. guest." "Thank you for your hard work, mother." Qin Mingsong was also worried that Mr. Liu would be embarrassed. Old Liu was not like this before. Ever since the Song sisters married in, things happened one after another to the old Liu family. "Hey, isn''t this Qin Xiucai?" The young man in golden clothes came up to say hello politely, "I have admired you for a long time, and my husband usually talks about you to us, saying that your poems and calligraphy are excellent. Even he admires you." "That''s too much praise. Who is your husband?" Qin Mingsong soon started chatting with the young man in brocade clothes. The young man in brocade is called Meng Qingrui, the second son of Magistrate Meng of Yixian County. The other Leyan is about the same age as Qin Chi, he is sixteen or seventeen years old. Both are students of Tachuan Academy. On the day the results were released, the three of them originally went to find Qin Chi, but after asking the neighbor next door, they learned that he had just returned to the countryside with his wife. So the three young men made an appointment to come to the countryside to find someone today. Old Liu asked Qin Daya to serve tea. Lu Yanji asked: "I wonder if it would be convenient for us to go and see Qian?" "I have to ask Dalang about this." Old man Qin called Daya and asked her to ask. As for Qin Chi. I heard it from Song Jin''s mouth. "Are you going home in such a hurry just to avoid them?" Song Jin asked half-jokingly. Qin Chi actually did not deny it, "There is a reason, and the other reason is that I gave up four exams. There must be a reasonable reason to the outside world." This way your reputation will not be damaged. Qin Chi winning the first place will arouse some jealousy, and it is very likely that someone will spread rumors and cause trouble. It would be just right if he fell ill at this time. Of course, there are still some reasons for this hurried return that cannot be said. Song Jin pretended not to care and said: "Grandfather and brother-in-law are entertaining them." "My brother-in-law, ha." Qin Chi smiled meaningfully. Song Jin asked in a low voice: "You don''t like your uncle very much?" "He is a man who is good at sneaking around." Qin Chi''s evaluation is unique and completely different from the outside world''s evaluation of Qin Mingsong. This was the first time in Song Jin''s life that he heard Qin Mingsong being evaluated like this. At this time, Qin Mingsong was still a scholar, well-known in Yi County, but had not yet made his mark in Fucheng. He really became famous in Huizhou Prefecture after he won the imperial examination. Some literati commented that his character was as noble as an orchid and a pine. He only read the books of saints and performed the deeds of saints. Even the matter of raising an outside wife was boasted as a romantic and elegant thing. Song Jinguang felt disgusted again when he thought about it. Fortunately, this life has nothing to do with her. "What''s wrong, madam? Are you pregnant and feeling sick?" Qin Chi knew that women would feel like vomiting in the early stages of pregnancy. After all, this was true for both the second and third aunts in the family. Song Jin shook his head and was about to say something. Qin Daya''s clear little voice came from the door, "Brother, I asked you to ask if it is convenient for you to see guests?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Its convenient, invite them over later. Qin Chi glanced at the room and asked Song Jin to tidy up the room. If you were a wealthy family, you wouldn''t be so careless. Meeting guests is generally not done in the bedroom. But they are farmers, so it seems awkward to pay attention to these things. Song Jin looked around and simply tidied up the room. Qin Chi wanted to see his classmates, but Song Jin did not stay in the room and went to Li''s place instead. This is meant to avoid suspicion. Qin Chi was very satisfied with this. Qin Chi didn''t want outsiders to see his wife''s stunning appearance. At this moment, Qin Chi suddenly understood why some men are always keen on hiding their beauty in a golden house. In fact, there was a moment just now... He wanted so badly to hide her! As for the incident where Song Jin almost bumped into Qin Mingsong before, Qin Chi''s eyes flashed coldly. Regardless of whether it was a coincidence or not, he didn''t believe in coincidences. "Qin Yi, does my uncle have a sweetheart in Fucheng?" Qin Chi seemed to remember that he did. "There is one." A male voice sounded from the rafters. Qin Chi then ordered: "Let someone send a message to Fucheng tonight to let the woman know that my uncle is getting married." What a loss, Mr. Qin Yi responded and then there was no more movement. The footsteps of several people were heard outside the door. The door had been opened long ago, and it was Qin Mingsong who brought the three of them over. At first, the three of them thought that Qin Chi had caught a cold. When he saw Qin Chi''s weak condition, he knew that his illness was serious. They knew that Qin Chi was weak and would get sick several times a year. He didn''t look as serious as he does today. "Thank you brothers for coming to see me." When Qin Chi spoke, he showed a hint of weakness, "I apologize for not being able to greet you all at this time." Lu Yanji hurriedly said: "Qi''an is so polite." "That''s right, why are you so polite? What kind of friendship do we have?" Meng Qingrui said cheerfully. Le Yan then said, "We are here to disturb you. Did we just see the doctor? What did the doctor say?" "I''ve seen it, and the doctor said it''s nothing serious. I just need to keep him for a few days." Qin Chi looked at the three of them gratefully. This weak look made it difficult for the three of them to say anything. Qin Chi asked them to go back and confess to the mountain chief and Mr. He. It''s like being sick, and regretting not being able to attend the last four games, being unable to visit them in time, saying that I would wait until he recovers before making amends, and so on. The three of them agreed repeatedly. After only sitting for a while, he stood up and left. Only Qin Yi admired the young master. This ability to tell lies with open eyes is even better than that of the ministers in the imperial court. Chapter 59 Again and again, again and again Chapter 59 Again and again, again and again "How is Chi''er doing? Has the fever gone away?" Li was concerned about Qin Chi''s condition. Song Jin said softly: "Didn''t you ask Doctor Jing just now?" "Asking, it''s not because I''m worried that your father-in-law and Dr. Jing are collaborating to hide it from me." Li complained casually. "My husband just had a bowl of porridge before I came here. He should be meeting his classmates at this time." When Song Jin saw Li''s current appearance, he was only worried about Qin Chi''s body. Where could he still have the anger that was concealed yesterday? Suddenly, Song Jin had some clarity in his heart. Again and again, it declines. Mrs. Li suddenly heard her son''s anger about concealing that he was going to take the scientific examination. After hearing that her son was sick, she immediately lost most of her anger. With old Liu''s Fu Shui tossing him around, and a visit from his classmates, Li had to wait a little longer to punish Qin Chi. After a while, the anger has almost dissipated! Qin Chi is really good at calculating! One illness kills two birds with one stone. Song Jin didn''t know whether Qin Chi was involved in the arrival of Fu Shui and his classmates when Old Liu arranged it, but his illness was most likely a result of a conspiracy, and he could get a glimpse of it just from Doctor Jing. Next, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatted again, mostly about Li teaching Song Jin some things to pay attention to when she was pregnant. "Do you want to stay in Qinjiagou?" Li asked suddenly, "If you are at home, I can help you with anything." "It''s hard to stop staying at home." Song Jin didn''t say anything clearly. Li Shi understood, "That sister of yours..." Li didn''t want to mention the rest, it was simply too much to say. Then he thought of some dirty tricks in the back house, so Li couldn''t force Song Jin to stay. Going to the county seat is actually quite peaceful. Mrs. Li suddenly brought some needle and thread and said she wanted to prepare some clothes for the child. While chatting, she looked at the calm Song Jin and said, "Do you want Chi''er to become an official in the court? But as much wealth as a person wants, they have to bear much responsibility. and pressure. "Mom, my husband has been studying for many years, and all his classmates are scholars. He is the only one who is white. He must be stressed every time he goes to the academy." Song Jin spoke in a gentle voice, as if he was distressed. These words made Mr. Li realize something. Then Song Jin added: "In the future, my husband will make money to support the family. He is weak and cannot do physical work. If my husband can pass the exam to become a scholar this time, he can also teach in a private school in the future." Huizhou Prefecture has a strong cultural atmosphere. There are many large and small academies in each county, and hundreds of schools of thought contend. Both the mountain chief and the master are famous. No matter how good his talents and studies are, Qin Chi will not be accepted by any academy if he wants to be a teacher in the future. During the chat, Song Jin tactfully reminded Li. Think of it as a small help to Qin Chi. After the guests left, Song Jin excused himself to take care of Qin Chi and walked out of Li''s house. There are not many people at home, almost all of them are busy with their own affairs. Song Jin didn''t have to do housework like Song Xiu. In order not to arouse jealousy, most of the time he went back to his room to accompany Qin Chi. When he was bored, he would do needlework or find a book to pass the time. Qin Chi recuperated for several days. Sometimes I go to Li''s side to accompany him. Seeing Qin Chi who was becoming more relaxed day by day, Song Jin knew that the matter of his county examination was over. The Qin family also returned to normal. Qin Mingsong had gone to the academy a long time ago. Little does he know that there is a big thunder waiting for him in Fucheng. However, the news that Qin Chi was the first in the county case spread in the village. The Qin family always walks with wind. The clan leader and clan elders of the Qin family came and learned that Qin Chi was ill. They just gave him a few words of encouragement and then went to chat with Old Man Qin. Anyway, Qin Chi should be the busiest. He was so pure that he could only read in the house, accompanied by his lovely wife. Occasionally, he would guide Erlang and Sanlang in their homework, or teach the brothers how to make Hui ink. Life was comfortable and comfortable. The only person Song Jin resented was probably Song Xiu, who was mentally ill. Every time he looked at her, he looked at him with gloating eyes, waiting to see her misfortune. Song Jin understood this look. It''s nothing more than the death anniversary of Qin Chi''s previous life getting closer! About half a month has passed. When Qin Chi saw that Li was back to normal, he packed up his things and went to the county town with Song Jin. This is not only Qin Chi''s problem. Even Song Jin is the same. There are still a lot of things waiting for her at the drug store. The house in the county town is very clean. Mrs. Huang cleans it from time to time, so she can rest after a little tidying up. "Mother, you''re tired from the journey. Why don''t you go take a rest? Before you go out, my mother gave you many instructions, asking me to take good care of you." Qin Chi led Song Jin to the bed. Song Jin was indeed tired, so he followed his wishes and took a nap. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! After she fell asleep, Qin Chi went to the west wing. Shopkeeper Tao is already waiting. "Sir, after the death of Huang Bingliang, the Yamen investigated the nursing homes of the Zeng family, but no one was arrested. Uncle Zeng said that those nursing homes were privately invited by Mr. Zeng, and they were dismissed after Mr. Zeng''s death. He doesnt know where. Shopkeeper Tao continued: "Our people found out that Uncle Zeng secretly sent a sum of money to Magistrate Yang." The Zeng family sent things to the magistrate''s gate. Naturally, he followed the path of Zeng, the concubine of the prefect. Qin Chi said: "Has the evidence been collected?" "Collect it. On the surface, Magistrate Yang is a good official who works diligently and loves the people. He has done a lot of corruption and bending the law in recent years." Shopkeeper Tao was not surprised by this. He has lived for half his life, and the honest officials he has met so far are very rare. Qin Chi thought for a moment and said, "Didn''t the Zeng family say they don''t know the whereabouts of the nursing home? You had them knocked unconscious and sent to the Yamen, and then you publicized Huang Bingliang''s case." "Wonderful! It''s impossible for the prefect to deal with it even if he doesn''t want to." Just publicize the case and make it known to everyone. Yang Lingyu didn''t dare to blatantly suppress the case. Qin Chi then ordered: "Find a way to involve the Zeng family in the murder case. Even if we can''t be involved, we must make the Zeng family''s reputation bad." This will facilitate his wife''s revenge in the future. Wait until things are more or less the same. Shopkeeper Tao suddenly looked strange and asked: "Sir, there is one more thing you asked me to do last time. Do you want to hear the follow-up?" "What''s up?" Qin Chi was confused. Can''t remember which one at the moment. Shopkeeper Tao blinked, "About your brother-in-law." Qin Chi immediately straightened his back and asked interestingly: "Looking at your look, what seems to have happened?" "It''s natural." Shopkeeper Tao was happy, "I heard that the girl went to the academy crying and was stuck in traffic for three days, writing letters and cutting off her love. However, your brother-in-law is also a capable person, and he even managed to write a loving poem. ! "Are you yearning for it?" Qin Chi looked at Shopkeeper Tao with a smile on his face. Shopkeeper Tao was inexplicably trembling, "I don''t have the ability, young master." "My brother-in-law is really capable. If word spreads about it in the future, it will definitely be another romantic affair." Qin Mingsong can handle that girl, but the girl''s parents are not easy to fool. How can parents who truly love their daughters let their daughters become concubines? So this matter is not over yet. Qin Chi never thought about what to do with Qin Mingsong. It''s just that Qin Mingsong caused him trouble, whether it was intentional or unintentional, he had to make it back for him. This is called coming back but not reciprocating. (End of chapter) Chapter 60 Drug store trivia Chapter 60: Trivia at the Drug Store Song Jin went to Jifang Pharmacy the next day. Jin Ling was stunned when she saw her, "Little miss, you didn''t have any rest when you went back to the countryside, okay? Why do you look a little thinner?" "Have you lost weight?" Song Jin touched his face and said, "I haven''t had much appetite these days. It''s probably due to pregnancy." "Are you pregnant?" Jin Ling asked in surprise, and quickly walked around the counter to help Song Jin. Song Jin couldn''t laugh or cry, "Don''t be so nervous, it should be hot." Jin Ling helped Song Jin to the room inside. In addition, Yinlong also came over after hearing the news and took Song Jin''s pulse, "Miss, do you want me to prepare your meals for a few days?" "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Aunt Long." Song Jin accepted the other party''s intention. Then Song Jin wanted to go to the processing room, but Yinlong stopped her, "Little miss, please don''t wander around. There are some things that pregnant women cannot smell. For example, there are musk, cinnabar and zombie silkworms in my house. Wait until I clean it up." " These words stopped Song Jin. She didn''t think about this when she came over. He simply sat aside and waited for Xing Lun to come over. I have been living in Qinjiagou during this period, and I dont know what the drug store is like. Xing Lun''s injury has recovered. Zhou Wei, on the other hand, has been injured for a hundred days and will have to recover for a while. However, others have no time to spare, so they come to the drug store early to do work, and when there is heavy work, they have others do it for them. "Master!" Xing Lun came in a hurry and saluted when he saw Song Jin. Song Jin saw his tired appearance and asked, "What are you doing here?" "Autumn is here, and some of the herbs in the medicine fields are ready to be harvested. We have been busy with this recently." Collecting medicinal materials is not that simple. One is to understand the medicinal materials, and the other is to inspect the goods. Wait until the good and bad are counted before weighing. Some medicinal materials are very similar, and if you get them wrong, you may end up losing money. Xing Lun talked about the quantity of medicinal materials collected recently, and said with some sadness: "My boss, it''s okay now. In a month or two, more medicinal materials will be collected from the medicinal fields. Will it be prepared by then?" "Too busy." Song Jin knew that if he followed the current method. With her, Yinlong and his wife being the master chefs, there is a high probability that they will be too busy. You must know that the large pharmacy supported by the Song family was able to process a large number of medicinal materials in an orderly manner. You can imagine how much work this entails. If medicinal materials are not processed in time, their medicinal properties will be lost. There are not enough warehouses for storage. Whether it is storing newly collected medicinal materials or storing prepared medicinal materials in the warehouse, there is no room for it. "How is the warehouse now?" Song Jin asked. Xing Lun answered truthfully: "I can let it go for the time being, but I won''t be able to wait until September." "In the future, the people from Shun''an will take away the prepared medicinal materials in time to make room for us." Song Jin was lucky to have someone from Shun''an who could tell the truth. Xing Lun wants to ask if this is not troublesome? But when I think about it, this is the best solution, and it can be regarded as a good solution to the problem of warehouse tension. Once Shun An settles their accounts, they will have money to expand. "Hey! Stop the car!" "Come down, come down and store the medicinal materials quickly!" "You bastard, get to work quickly! Do you still want to save money to marry a wife?" I saw Zhou Wei coming back from outside. Behind him followed ten mule carts, all of which were filled with newly collected medicinal materials. Zhou Wei directed the workers to move into the warehouse of the pharmacy. Song Jin saw thirteen young people carrying the goods. Xing Lun had picked them out from a drug farmer''s house before. They seemed to be doing well and there were no cheating or cheating people. "Did you choose those people from the medicine farmers?" Song Jin remembered that he once asked Xing Lun to go to the medicine farmer''s house to find someone when he was short of people. At least someone who knows the basics is more trustworthy than someone hired from outside. Xing Lun smiled faintly and responded: "Yes, it''s the thirteen families you mentioned. My family wants one. They are all hard-working and hard-working young people. They can do whatever they are told." "Please ask around. Is there anyone who knows how to prepare it? Ask if you can come to the drug store to work." "Okay, I''ll ask later." Behind every drug farmer there is a family. There are more than 160 pharmacists under the name of Jifang Pharmacy, and more than 90 of them are owned by the Song family. Mostly people you can trust. Song Jin wanted to go deeper. These people are more like the forces left behind by the Song family. In her previous life, she didn''t close it in time, and her heart was 80% to 90% scattered. Maybe you can try using it in the future. Song Jin went over to check out the newly collected herbs. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! All fresh, not washed or dried yet. When other drug dealers in Huizhou Prefecture collect medicinal materials, they usually ask the medicinal collectors to handle them and dry them before collecting them. Song''s Pharmacy mainly collects fresh medicinal materials. Experts know that some medicinal materials need to be dried in the shade, air-dried or oven-dried, and they even pay attention to how many percent of drying can maintain the medicinal properties to the greatest extent. A layman won''t be able to distinguish these, and they will all be exposed to the sun. Jifang had previously adopted Song''s method. That''s nice, but it''s too much work. Song Jin suddenly said: "Xing Lun, Zhou Wei, from now on, please ask the farmers to dry the common medicinal materials before harvesting them." "Master, that medicinal property..." "It doesn''t matter, it won''t have much impact. If you don''t understand, you can teach them how to do it. Drug farmers can make more money, and our drug stores can save trouble, right?" Song Jin made an unexpected decision. Xing Lun and Zhou Wei looked at each other. The Song family used to do this, and every step was done by their own hands. In addition to maintaining the medicinal properties, they also did not want anything to be passed on to others. Song Jin made this decision obviously without such scruples. They both said yes. They cannot question the owner''s decision. Just do what your boss tells you. At the same time, Song Jin changed the method of preparation. While maintaining the efficacy of the medicine, try to use simple processes to prepare it. Any method that takes a long time will be abandoned by Song Jin 90% of the time. Those processes that were complex and required experience were left to Song Jin and Yinlong. Most people can''t do it well. A slight mistake can ruin the medicine. Of course, except for precious and rare medicinal materials, Song Jinhui will personally prepare all the ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, etc. Give instructions one by one. Clear and feasible. After Xing Lun and Zhou Wei listened to Song Jin''s words, they looked at Song Jin with admiration in their eyes. Be aware of this period of time. In order to solve the problems they were about to face, Xing Lun and Zhou Wei thought about it day and night but could not think of a way to solve it unless they transferred the newly collected herbs. But when the fat in their mouths was given away, the two of them were heartbroken. That''s it, just follow Song Jin''s instructions and most of the problems will be solved in one go. Sure enough, he is worthy of being the boss. The way to solve things is much more sophisticated than theirs. Wait for Xing Lun and Zhou Wei to go away. Yinlong has put away things that are not good for pregnant women and locked them up. Song Jin was looking through the drug store''s directory. Finally, it fell on the current list of drug boys in the drug store. The drug boys have a contract of prostitution in their hands, so they don''t have to worry about betrayal. Moreover, under the influence of his ears and eyes, he knows more about medicinal materials than ordinary people. If he learns to prepare medicinal materials, it should be easier to get started. (End of chapter) Chapter 61 Shouldn’t the lady know best? Chapter 61: Shouldnt the lady know best? "Aunt Long, do you and Uncle Xing want to take some apprentices?" Song Jin asked straight to the point. Yinlong understood, "Little miss, you want to train a master?" "It takes more than ten or twenty years to become a master. It''s impossible. I just want to teach a few useful ones quickly." Yinlong couldn''t understand Song Jin''s words. Song Jin added: "I don''t need the other person to learn all the skills. One person only needs to master one or two skillfully." It is difficult for a newcomer to learn all the knowledge. But it is much simpler to specialize in the preparation of one or two medicinal materials. Preparing medicinal materials is a highly learned craft, and it does not mean that you can become a master just by knowing the process steps. To truly master this craft, practice is very important. Let each apprentice practice only one or two techniques every day, and his techniques will surely become more and more proficient. After a month or two of practice, you will naturally become familiar with it. Moreover, by dividing the work among us, we can avoid unnecessary competition in the future. Yinlong thought this was a good move and immediately decided to do it. Call the drug boy from the store. Did you ask them directly if they wanted to be an apprentice? There were eight drug boys in total. The youngest is eight years old and the oldest is thirteen. When they heard that they could learn how to prepare medicinal materials, and that they would be able to get a salary increase after they graduated, everyone looked at Song Jin gratefully. Song Jin smiled and said: "Okay, go to work quickly. Whether you can learn this craft depends on your own ability." "Master, we will definitely study hard." "Yes, study hard." One of the children knelt down and kowtowed to Song Jin, and then several other children followed suit and kowtowed. Ever since I came to Jifang Pharmacy. The work is a bit hard, but they have enough food, clothing, and wages. The most important thing is that the boss and the people in charge are nice and don''t beat or scold them at every turn, so the children are grateful. Song Jin waved for them to leave. Song Jin knew very well what these children were thinking. How long can this gratitude last? Song Jin didn''t know. Because people will change, especially their thoughts, which will change as they grow up. Just like the Song family''s former pharmacy, the intrigues never stopped. But as long as the work can be done well and normal business is not affected, the owner can turn a blind eye. Song Kuan did this, and Song Jin did the same thing as his father. The medicine boy left not long ago. Another brother and sister came over. The brother and sister knelt down in front of Song Jin. Song Jin was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the two of them. The thin boy kneeling on the ground, in his early ten years, is Lou Ruhan. Beside him is a seven or eight-year-old girl. The little girl is very thin, with big eyes that reveal a bit of intelligence, and she is wearing the clothes of a medicine boy. Unexpectedly, I left ten taels of silver behind. He actually saved the little girl''s life. It can only be said that she was lucky. After all, judging from her condition that night, she was quite seriously ill. Of course, Song Jin would have forgotten it if he hadn''t seen them now. Song Jin pretended not to know them and asked in confusion: "Are you new here?" "My boss, my sister and I came to Jifang Pharmacy to deliver a message. Shopkeeper Jin saw that we had nowhere to go, so he kindly took us in. We have been helping out with some odd jobs in the shop these days to earn a living." The days when they came here were beyond the imagination of the Lou brothers and sisters. They like the stability here. There was no one to beat or scold, and there was plenty to eat. But when the shopkeeper asked them whether to stay or leave, they had to ask their boss''s opinion. As long as the boss nodded, there would be no problem. Lou Ruhan kowtowed three times: "Boss, we want to stay here and work. The shopkeeper said we need your permission. Please take us brothers and sisters in. We will work hard to repay you." Song Jin looked at Lou Ruhan interestingly. I remember that when I became an adult in my previous life, I couldn''t even hit a fart with eight sticks. You might not hear a word from him for ten days and a half, and he would look at people with a gloomy look in his eyes, and people he didn''t know well would walk around him in fear. The only saving grace is to be obedient. He would do whatever Xing Lun asked him to do, and hit wherever he was told. What he said today was more than all the words Song Jin heard him say in his previous life combined. Song Jin asked the brother and sister to get up and stay in the shop to work from now on. Thank you very much Lou Ruhan. The little girl followed and kowtowed. Then the brother and sister went to Jin Ling happily. At that time, Jin Ling guessed that Song Jin had sent the two children to the drug store on purpose, so she let them show their faces in front of Song Jin. Lou Ruhan stayed as a medicine boy. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! His sister was still young, so she asked Jin Ling to arrange to go to the drying yard to help turn over the medicine. Late afternoon. Song Jin carried the food box specially prepared by Yinlong and went home with a tired face. Step through the door. Unexpectedly, I saw Qin Chi in a long gown with dark hair, standing in the corridor, facing the patio, seeming to be in a trance, not knowing what he was thinking. "Ms. sir?" Song Jin approached lightly. Qin Chi seemed to have just come to his senses and turned sideways to Song Jin, "Is the lady back?" "Well, I''m back." Song Jin looked at the west wing, "Why don''t you read the book today, sir? It''s less than a month until the imperial examination." Logically speaking, Qin Chi should be either in the academy or studying in the west wing. Why is there still time to stand here? Facing Song Jin''s questioning eyes, Qin Chi remained motionless, pretending not to understand what she was thinking. He couldn''t be allowed to say that he thought she was going home soon, so by some strange coincidence he walked out of the west wing and stood on the corridor waiting for someone. Tell me this reason. Not to mention that Song Jin didn''t believe it, even Qin Chi himself found it ridiculous. Qin Chi''s eyes fell on the food box in Song Jin''s hand. Subconsciously, he stretched out his hand to carry it for her. Song Jin didn''t let go, "I''m here anyway, your body is weak..." "Oh!" Qin Chi smiled, "Shouldn''t my wife be the one who knows best whether my body is really weak or fake?" Song Jin suddenly became speechless. She couldn''t answer this. Song Jin was also confused when talking about this issue. Is Qin Chi really sick or pretending to be sick? She had suspected Qin Chi of pretending to be sick, but he was indeed sick last time at home. It can also be seen from the attitude of the Qin family that Qin Chi must have been in poor health since he was a child. Moreover, if a person pretends to be ill, at what age does he start pretending? But they are husband and wife. The most intimate... While Song Jin was thinking wildly, Qin Chi had already taken away the food box in his hand. "What''s in here, lady?" "It was made by an aunt in the shop. She said it was specially for pregnant women. She asked me to bring some back to eat. I haven''t opened it yet, so I don''t know what it is." Song Jin followed Qin Chi to the hall. Qin Chi put the food box on the table, "Do you want to eat now? I''ll get you bowls and chopsticks." "No appetite." "That''s not okay. You have to eat some even if you don''t have an appetite." Qin Chi asked Doctor Jing today. Dr. Jing said that pregnant women may have a bad appetite, but they cannot eat nothing. It was not easy to give Song Jin food in Qinjiagou. It was much more convenient to arrive at the county seat, but before he could take out the prepared things, Song Jin came back with the food box. (End of chapter) Chapter 62 crisis Chapter 62 Crisis Qin Chi went to the kitchen to get dishes and chopsticks. Song Jin sat in the hall and watched him busy in wonder. Qin Chi felt uncomfortable with the look in her eyes. He took out a bowl of soup from the food box and placed it in front of Song Jin, "Why do you look at your husband with such eyes?" "No, just a curiosity." Song Jin''s eyebrows relaxed and she smiled lightly. When he looked at Qin Chi, there seemed to be a light in his eyes, and he was incredibly gentle. Qin Chi''s heart was pounding. It''s not what he thinks, but it''s out of his control. Why does the lady look at him like this? Could it be... This world is harsh on women. Husbands rarely do housework for their wives, as if men who do housework are ashamed. Qin Chi just went to get the bowls and chopsticks. But it is also extremely rare, especially since he is also a scholar. So Song Jin would say it was strange. Qin Chi calmly thought about it and understood the meaning of Song Jin''s words. He simply pretended that he couldn''t hear her teasing and brought up another topic: "Madam, I heard that Jifang''s case has been closed by the Yamen." "Did Wang Mazi catch him?" Wang Mazi was the one who sold medicine to Xing Lun and Zhou Wei. Huang Bingliang is dead. It is difficult to get involved with Zeng Family or Huairen Medicine Hall. Qin Chi knew about this case. So when Qin Chi mentioned it, Song Jin didn''t doubt it. "How did you catch it? Didn''t you say that the person was hiding?" "Ha, I heard that he was hiding in the mountains. He couldn''t stand the mosquito bites, and he didn''t receive any news for a long time. He just wanted to go down the mountain to inquire, but someone arranged by Dianshi caught him." Qin Chi said something more. After interrogation, Wang Mazi confessed to Huang Bingliang and Huairen Medicine Hall. Huang Bingliang has died without any evidence. The clerk and shopkeeper of the medicine hall were taken to jail for interrogation, and it was found out that shopkeeper Chai had teamed up with Huang Bingliang to harm Jifang. The Zeng family only sent a housekeeper to deal with it. Huairen Medicine Hall is closed. Xing Lun and Zhou Wei each received one hundred taels of compensation. The case was thus closed. Song Jin thought to himself, "I didn''t hear about this matter today. When was the case closed?" "Oh, it''s seven or eight days away." Qin Chi said it very casually. Song Jin thought that Aunt Ling and the others didn''t tell her. They probably forgot about it for a while, so it wasn''t a big problem. Qin Chi reminded again: "The Zeng family is not easy to get along with. After this incident, I vow to bear a grudge and go to Jifang." "I have held grudges for a long time..." This is known from the moment Mr. Zeng took action to kill people. Song Jin looked too calm, so Qin Chi had no choice but to say, "The Zeng family has recently been involved in a life-threatening lawsuit." "Tell me about it?" Song Jin pretended not to know. Like an outsider. If Qin Chi hadn''t known that she was responsible for the murder, he wouldn''t have believed that she did it. This stable mentality is unmatched by anyone. "A murder occurred in Fucheng a few days ago..." Qin Chi told Song Jin one by one, down to the smallest detail. "The case has been widely spread in Fucheng, and it has even reached Yixian County. I heard it mentioned by a classmate today." Qin Chi was very covert. This time difference is very problematic. This is not the focus of Song Jin''s life. Jin Ling and others are from the Song family. The Zeng family vows not to tolerate Ji Fang''s existence. There will definitely be other means later... Qin Chi took Song Jin''s solemn look into his eyes. There are also some things that Qin Chi cannot talk to Song Jin about due to his current status. During their return to Qinjiagou, several waves of people had come to investigate Jifang. Song Jin wears a power fence every day when he comes in and out, but people still notice him, and someone has already approached Lao Li to inquire. Qin Chi used thunderous means to sweep away the spies from all sides, thus preventing Song Jin''s identity from being leaked. After Song Jin washed up. People go back to their rooms to rest. She gets sleepy easily during this period and falls asleep soon. "Bang!" Qin Chi, who originally planned to turn off the lights, suddenly stood up and strode to the carved window. Push open a gap. Suddenly I saw someone fighting outside. A masked man in black. The other figure looks like Lao Huo''s. The man was caught without many moves in Lao Huo''s hands. Qin Chi closed the window and door, looked at Song Jin sleeping on the bed through the light, and gently lowered the bed curtains on both sides. He walked out of the room, not angry but powerful. Went through the secret door to the next door. When I entered, I heard muffled screams. Someone had gagged my mouth and was being tortured. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Lao Huo''s interrogation techniques were ruthless. Just don''t treat the other person as a human being. "Yeah, move, move..." The man could not withstand the torture. Lao Huo''s hands were stained with blood, but he still said: "Why don''t you hold on for a while? I still have many ways to extract a confession that I haven''t tried yet." Shopkeeper Tao next to him felt his scalp numb. This man is a pervert. Lao Litou was not surprised. He had already seen through Lao Huo. His fierce appearance matched his appearance, but he was not a good person. The two people who hurt him before were tortured by him in the secret cell until they wanted to die, and now they are not dead yet. Lao Huo took out a white handkerchief next to him and wiped the blood on his hand. "This man has soft bones and average power behind him. Brother Tao, you can come and ask." "Okay, leave it to me next." Shopkeeper Tao went up to inquire. The man was frightened and answered all questions. It didn''t take a moment to ask. This man''s name is Liu Sixi, who has been working for Uncle Zeng for a long time. This time he was sent to investigate the person behind Ji Fang. Among the people who made inquiries before, there were also people sent by Uncle Zeng. Liu Sixi had no idea about this and only thought that Uncle Zeng had arranged for him to come to Yixian alone. This shows that Uncle Zeng is cautious in doing things. How often do I worry about being deceived by people below me? Liu Sixi was able to get here because Uncle Zeng knew from somewhere that the owner of Jifang Pharmacy was a woman. Song Jin was spotted by him when he went to the pharmacy today, but he didn''t see Song Jin''s real face, so he wanted to come to visit him at night. . Shopkeeper Tao said: "This man is clever and he was the fish that slipped through our net before..." "Send him to meet his companions." Qin Chi looked gloomy and gave the order directly. Shopkeeper Tao felt a chill go down his spine. The corpse of the previous spy of the Zeng family had long since sunk to the bottom of the river. Then Liu Sixi was dragged away like a dead dog. When he got outside, he heard a click and his throat bone was twisted. The next step is to destroy the body and eliminate all traces. Qin Chi looked at Shopkeeper Tao, "Go see Madam tomorrow and tell her all this. At least let her know her situation." "As commanded." Shopkeeper Tao responded respectfully. After Qin Chi left, Shopkeeper Tao finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Young master is angry!" Old Li Tou was still frightened. Shopkeeper Tao was not angry, "Are you not angry?" "That''s right! If anyone dares to stare at my wife and daughter-in-law, I will smash their skulls!" Lao Huo laughed loudly. Then they all sat down on the coffee table, poured a large bowl of cold tea and drank it. Shopkeeper Tao glanced at him sideways and mocked: "It''s a pity that you don''t have a wife." "Go! It''s enough that I have the lovely girl from Chunguiyuan." "They are for sale." "What''s the point? A large group of little girls are at your disposal, and they will serve me comfortably. You can do whatever you want, and if it breaks, you can replace it with another one." The more Lao Huo talks about it, the less formal he becomes. What''s so good about marrying someone home? Just like his father in the past, he was kept in charge of everything by an old woman every day, making noisy noises all day long. Shopkeeper Tao just wants to say that everyone has his own ambitions. It''s not like he is a clean man who just wants to have a family. Chapter 63 Song Jin takes action again Chapter 63 Song Jin takes action again It started raining early in the morning. Song Jin stood under the eaves, quietly listening to the sound of rain and looking at the distant mountains hazy in mist. I received news from Shopkeeper Tao this morning, and there are two new household registration documents. One is from Song Jin and the other is from Song Xiu, which clearly distinguishes the relationship between the two and the Song family in She County. In addition, the marriage contract registration between Song Jin and Qin Chi was also hidden in the Yamen Archives. Shun''an is cleaning up for her. Song Jin was very grateful to the other party. At first I guessed that I would be targeted. But she didn''t expect the situation to be more serious than expected. Nowadays, Jifang Pharmacy is like a child carrying gold bricks through the busy city, which has attracted the attention of all parties. Especially the evil wolf of the Zeng family. As long as she doesn''t get rid of it, she won''t want to feel at ease for a day. "Be calm, don''t be impatient..." Song Jin kept warning himself in his heart. Shun An gave Song Jin evidence last time. This evidence is enough for Song to overturn the case. However, Qin Chi did not make his own decision for Song Jin, and Song Jin also suppressed the evidence. It''s not that Song Jin doesn''t want to overturn the verdict, it''s that he can''t. If the Song family was really taken to the capital. Song Jin will definitely go to Beijing without hesitation to overturn the case for the Song family. The problem is that hundreds of people are missing! Once you stand up and reverse the verdict, it is equivalent to alerting the enemy. The bigger this case becomes, the sooner the missing Song family will die. In order to hide their crimes, those behind the scenes will most likely choose to silence themselves. Even if the people behind the scenes dont choose to silence themselves. Holding the lives of the Song family in your hands is equivalent to holding the lifeblood of Song Jin. In the past, she thought too simply. The more you think about it, the creepier it becomes. Before everything is clear, the identity must not be revealed. Qin Chi came to Song Jin and put a coat on her body, "Madam, Doctor Jing said that women should think less and worry less during pregnancy." "I was a little lost in thought when I saw the rain." Song Jin looked back and smiled implicitly at Qin Chi. Qin Chi raised his hand to straighten the hair on her temples, "Whenever you encounter something, you can discuss it with me. Don''t hold it in your heart for a long time and wear it out." "The Zeng family will not let Ji Fang go. My husband, tell me how to solve it?" Song Jin didn''t think much about it when he asked. Just want to find someone to talk to. Qin Chi said calmly: "This is not difficult to solve. Either find a way to bring down the Zeng family, or find a backer that the Zeng family dare not touch." "The Zeng family doesn''t dare to move?" Song Jin thought about this problem, "The biggest official in Huizhou is the prefect. Is it possible to hook up with the governor? If Jifang wants to hook up, he must be favored by others." "Then find a way to bring down the Zeng family." Qin Chi''s slightly raised lips held a careless smile, his posture was lazy and self-possessed. Song Jin glanced at him and said, "This can be discussed in the long run." "The only powerful person in the Zeng family is Uncle Zeng, and the internal business is not as solid as an iron barrel. Find a way to make them fight among themselves." Qin Chi''s thoughts coincided with Song Jin''s. Song Jin''s mind changed and he had a plan. In addition, Qin Chi was too calm, so Song Jin finally asked: "Did you know that I was Jifang''s boss?" "It''s not hard to guess." Qin Chi met Song Jin''s gaze calmly. Song Jin heard the same thing. Just think of it as a random excuse to deceive the Qin family, but you can''t deceive Qin Chi. It had not been revealed before, and it was just a tacit understanding between the two of them. Then Song Jin went to the west wing. Wrote two letters. One is for Jin Ling. The other letter is for Xing Lun. After writing it, I asked Old Li Tou next door to check it out and pass on twenty cents for running errands. When Lao Li loaded the mule cart with two letters in his arms, Lao Huo was still smiling horribly, "I told you, Uncle Li, twenty coins are not even enough for you to have a drink or two." "What do you know?" ? Madam is being generous this time. Madame used to ride in a mule cart. Not even twenty coins at a time. Lao Huo laughed so hard that he couldn''t stand upright. The two letters soon reached the hands of Jin Ling and Xing Lun. Because it rained today, they were all in the shop. When Jin Ling read the letter, her face became serious, and she immediately went to Shun''an Bookstore under an umbrella. When Xing Lun opened the envelope. After reading it three times and memorizing the contents in his mind, he burned the letter. "Mom, I want to go to Fucheng." Xing Lun said something to Yinlong. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Yinlong stopped what he was doing and asked, "Why are you going to Fucheng suddenly?" "Is it dangerous?" Father Xing on the side also suddenly spoke. "My boss asked me to do something. Don''t worry, there''s no danger. I''m just sending a message." Xing Lun said a few words to reassure his parents. When Father Xing saw the letter his second son had just burned, his worry did not diminish at all, "I''ll go with you." "Dad, it''s really okay." Xing Lun didn''t want his father to run around with him, "I planned to go back quickly, but if you follow me, I''ll have to take care of you. It''s a waste of time." Xing Lun couldn''t say anything at this time. His boss asked him to alienate Zeng''s family. The method of how to do it was detailed in Song Jin''s letter. It mainly depends on how well it is executed. There are also some specific details that Xing Lun needs to adapt to. Xing Lun went back to tidy up briefly and went to rent a horse from a car rental agency. When Jin Ling came back from Shun''an Bookstore. Xing Lunren has already set off. Someone reported it to Qin Chi that night. "Sir, Shopkeeper Jin from Jifang found Shopkeeper Tao and asked if he could borrow the name of Shun''an Trading Company. In addition, Xing Lun went to Fucheng..." The subordinates told them one by one. After hearing this, Qin Chi was a little surprised, but not too surprised. He didn''t expect the two methods he proposed. Song Jin took a two-pronged approach. We also need to find a backer, and the Zeng family also needs to do something. What satisfied Qin Chi was that Song Jin did not come forward in this matter. Perhaps she also realized that it was not suitable for her to go to the drug store anymore. Pharmacies are getting a lot of attention these days. The only thing to be thankful for. Every time Song Jin went to the drug store, Jin Ling and others protected him extremely well. Everyone in the shop has kept their mouths shut, not allowing anyone to leak any information about the owner. They unanimously said that Song Jin was just a worker hired by the drug store. In fact, Jifang did not take over the Song family''s former drug farmers, and the forces in Huizhou Prefecture would not notice it at all. The fact that the Song family''s house was suddenly ransacked was too sensational, and it was inevitable that it would attract attention. An Hui merchant who was doing medicinal materials business at that time. Almost all of them were focused on Song''s medicinal farmers and medicinal fields. Most of the medicine farmers raised by the Song family are experts in planting for generations. At that time, many people did not expect that the government would not confiscate these items when they ransacked their homes. The land deeds for thousands of acres of medicinal fields were actually scattered in the names of medicinal farmers, and the medicinal farmers and their families were free. Therefore, I dont know how many people were scolding the Song family for being stupid and calling Song Kuan a fool. Such a feeling of frustration! People who have ransacked their homes can understand this best. If property is confiscated from home and sold, it is easiest to buy it back with money if you have the means. Instead of being like now, each and every drug farmer is trying their best to dig out the medicine and they can''t get it away. (End of chapter) Chapter 64 Im going to be a father soon Chapter 64 Im going to be a father soon As the people who went to investigate Jifang Pharmacy disappeared one after another, it was also confirmed that there was indeed someone behind Jifang. Someone stopped in time. Some people are still watching secretly. Only the Zeng family kept a watchful eye, but as rumors spread that Uncle Zeng wanted to monopolize the family wealth and murdered Second Master Zeng, Uncle Zeng''s other brothers began to feel uneasy. Third Master Zeng and several brothers, together with several elders in the clan, wanted to remove Uncle Zeng from the position of head of the family. In the west wing room. Qin Chi was writing at his desk. There is a visitor at home today, it is Meng Qingrui, the second young master of the county magistrate''s family. Qin Chi let him do whatever he wanted. Meng Qingrui didn''t regard himself as an outsider. He sat lazily on a chair and yawned, "Qi''an, where are my brothers and sisters? You got married suddenly. Brother, I didn''t even drink a glass of wedding wine." "I''m poor and can''t afford to drink." Qin Chi frankly admitted that he had no money. Meng Qingrui was scornful. "I''m asking you about your younger siblings. Why are you talking about serving drinks? I''ve never met the brothers once, is that fair? I can see now. You did it on purpose." The month Qin Chi got married. Meng Qingrui came to see Qin Chi several times. Song Jin was indeed not there and went to the medicine shop. "Okay, my wife is resting in the room. She is more sleepy during pregnancy." Qin Chi mentioned Song Jin, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows softened. Meng Qingrui raised his handsome eyebrows. He came up to Qin Chi in a few moments and said, "Brother, there''s something wrong with your expression." "I''m going to be a father soon, and you''re not married yet." Qin Chi answered the question incorrectly. Meng Qingrui was speechless, "Are you showing off? It''s just about becoming a couple and a father. My mother is already showing me love, and this young master will do the same in the coming year." "Then I''ll be ahead of you." "Aren''t you childish!" Meng Qingrui crossed his legs in an awkward manner. Just then the secret door opened from the next door. Shopkeeper Tao came over from there, holding a stack of brochures in his hand. Meng Qingrui raised his hand to say hello. Shopkeeper Tao saw Meng Qingrui and asked, "Second Young Master Meng, what brought you here?" Shopkeeper Tao did not shy away from Meng Qingrui. In fact, this guy looked unreliable, but he was Qin Chi''s pet. The two have known each other since they were in private school. Meng Qingrui was abducted by human traffickers when he was a child, but Qin Chi rescued him. Meng Qingrui knew that Qin Chi was the big owner of Shun''an Trading Company. Shopkeeper Tao put the booklet on the desk. Meng Qingrui casually picked up the volume above and flipped through it. It was an unintentional move, but the more he read, the more interesting it became. "This Xing Lun, I remember, seems to be a younger brother and sister. I didn''t expect him to look clean, but the holes he dug for others became dirtier every time. In just a few days, he dug all the graves of Mr. Zeng " Shopkeeper Tao said to be fair: "Xing Lun didn''t dig it." "I know, but he instigated it, and rounding it off is what he dug!" The truth is that Xing Lun is sowing discord. He encouraged Mr. Zengs son to dig. The blackness of the bones confirmed that the person was indeed killed or poisoned. When Uncle Zeng claimed that the death was sudden and denied the murder, it seemed that he was trying to cover up the truth and had a guilty conscience. Faced with the accusations from his tribe, Uncle Zeng found it difficult to defend himself. And the steward next to Master Zeng died "accidentally". After Xing Lun interfered with it, no, it was a reasonable analysis, and it turned out to be evidence for Uncle Zeng to silence him. In recent years, Uncle Zeng has used Mr. Zeng as a raft to pretend to be a good guy. It is not without some shrewd people to notice. The truth is thrown out again and again. Except for a few die-hard fans of Uncle Zeng, almost no one in the Zeng family believed that Uncle Zeng was innocent. Meng Qingrui asked strangely: "Did Uncle Zeng really kill someone?" "Driven by interests, the authenticity of the evidence is not important. The most important thing is that the timing is right." Qin Chi''s evaluation was spot on. Those words were not said by him at that time, but by Song Jin, and he **** well agreed with them. The first thing those in power see is not the authenticity of evidence, but the weighing of pros and cons. If this evidence is true and is more beneficial to him, then it is true, and if it is false, it must be made true. How did wrongful convictions come about throughout the ages? It''s just the judge taking bribes. This is profit! Driven by profit, one can destroy conscience. In the end, Meng Qingrui still didn''t see Song Jin. Song Jin learned that Qin Chi''s classmates were visiting, so he stayed in the east wing and never left. Ever since I found out that the pharmacy was being targeted. Song Jin lived in seclusion and tried his best to avoid showing his true face in front of strangers. Ever since she learned that Shun''an allowed Jifang to take advantage of the situation, Song Jin felt more at ease. On the contrary, she was often thinking about what Xing Lun was going to do in Fucheng, which made her realize again that she needed to speed up the establishment of her own power. If it was a previous life. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! We must be able to grasp the trends in Fucheng in a timely manner. Instead of being so clueless as now. "Tuk-tuk." The door was knocked twice. Then before Song Jin could say anything, a door was pushed open from the outside. Qin Chi stepped in from the outside and saw a distracted look at first sight, but when she saw him, Song Jin subconsciously returned to her normal gentle posture. It''s like a disguise. They are used to hiding themselves when they see outsiders. "Someone brought this just now. It should be for you." Qin Chi handed the brochure sent by Shopkeeper Tao to Song Jin. What is recorded above is Xing Lun''s whereabouts in the past few days, as well as the situation of the Zeng family. Qin Chi originally didn''t want to take it. But thinking about these past few days, Song Jin couldn''t sleep or eat well. I couldn''t help but bring it. He didn''t want Song Jin to miss other men, even if there were other reasons. Qin Chi said apologetically: "Sorry, I didn''t pay attention to open it before." Song Jin took it in confusion. When he opened the booklet and looked at it, his pupils suddenly shrank. Then she flipped through the pages quickly and finished reading the contents in a moment. It took a long time to recover. Xing Lun is really suitable for this kind of conspiracy. You must know that Song Jin in the letter only made a plan, and Xing Lun is still the one to execute it. As expected, her worries were in vain. The Zeng family was simply not enough for him to play with. "If Uncle Zeng wants to quell this crisis, he must divide some of his power and some of his interests." Qin Chi sat down next to Song Jin naturally, and the aura around him seemed to surround her. Song Jin came to his senses. This feeling of oppression hit me. "Not enough..." The original frame-up of the Song family was ostensibly done by Master Zeng, but behind the scenes it was Master Zeng who was controlling it. Therefore, Uncle Zeng must die. He also wants to die without any flaws and cannot have anything to do with the Song family. Song Jin lowered his head and looked at the booklet in his hand. There is a Thuan An logo on the first page. Suddenly Song Jin wants to negotiate a business deal with people from Shun''an, such as swallowing up the Zeng family''s business? Qin Chi saw that Song Jin was deep in thought again, so he patiently did not disturb her and waited quietly for her to come to her senses until she gently put the booklet in her hand on the table. "What else came to mind?" Qin Chi''s tone was filled with curiosity. Song Jin added: "I want to cooperate with Shun''an and swallow up the Zeng family''s business." "How to swallow it?" Qin Chi became interested. Song Jin glanced at him in surprise, "Is your husband also interested in doing business?" This is a scholar, this year''s county case leader. Qin Chi stared at Song Jin''s calm face, and suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart. Should he tell her that Shun''an is his? Chapter 65 The downfall of the Tsang family Chapter 65 The downfall of the Zeng family Song Jin wrote a planning letter that night. Ask Qin Chi to send it to Shun''an Bookstore. Yes, now Qin Chi is acting as a messenger. It wasn''t that Qin Chi didn''t want to tell him, it was because Song Jin was so obedient that he knew he had a secret but never asked. Since Song Jin told Qin Chi that she was the owner of Jifang Pharmacy, she no longer deliberately avoided Qin Chi when it came to Jifang''s affairs. Qin Chi is still very satisfied with this. At least the relationship has taken a step forward, right? Qin Chi handed the matter over to shopkeeper Tao and asked him to go to Fucheng to contact Xing Lun and cooperate with Xing Lun. The Zeng family must be destroyed, using merchant methods. In order to attract less attention, Song Jin proposed to win over several families who had grievances with the Zeng family to join forces. Without Song Jin''s knowledge, Qin Chi also gave the secret guard an order, "When the Zeng family is ruined, find an opportunity to kill Uncle Zeng, and even die in an accident." "As you command, sir." One of the secret guards left. As time passes day by day. Good news came one after another from Fucheng. First, the internal fighting within the Zeng family became intense. Not long after Mr. Zeng went out, he was robbed and killed by bandits. Fortunately, he was rescued by a "passing" knight, who was actually arranged by Shopkeeper Tao and Xing Lun. Master Zeng firmly believed that Uncle Zeng wanted to kill him. So, Mr. Zeng began to take revenge, and he accidentally killed Mr. Zeng! This is very unexpected. The secret guard who had hidden his fame returned to Yi County. Following this, various forces waiting for the opportunity began to swallow up the Zeng family''s huge property in Huizhou Prefecture. Within a month, the wealthy Zeng family fell. After Song Jin heard the news. He just said softly to show that he understood. Then prepare for Qin Chi to take the government examination. I have to go to Fucheng to participate in the government examination, which will be presided over by the prefect Yang Lingyu. Song Jin couldn''t go with Qin Chi. One is that Song Jin is pregnant, the other is that Qin Chi does not want her to be tired, and the third is that Qin Chi sets out with his classmates from Tachuan Academy. When setting off, Song Jin saw each other off wearing a power fence. A classmate on the side saw Song Jin covering most of her body with the power barrier, and asked jokingly: "Qi''an, is that your wife?" "Exactly." Qin Chi replied with a smile. Suddenly a bitter voice sounded, "Being so secretive probably means you are ugly and don''t dare to see people." The man who spoke was named Gan Shichun. There has always been a lot of jealousy in the academy about the attention given to Master Qin Chi. Qin Chi didn''t take four exams last time. Gan Shichun went around slandering Qin Chi, saying that he was arrogant and arrogant, and that he became the head of a county case and so on. In the end, it was Lu Yanji and three others who stood up and testified on Qin Chi''s behalf that he was sick, and they saved some of their reputation. Qin Chi ignored Gan Shichun. The more you care about this kind of person, the happier he will be. "Okay, get in the car." This time the master who led the team spoke up and gave Gan Shichun a warning look, "Gan Shichun, let''s not talk about women''s beauty. Even if you cover your face when traveling, you are reserved and respectful, and you are a model for women." "Master, your lesson is right, students should remember it." Gan Shichun knew it was bad when he said it. Jealousy made him forget that there was a master beside him. Before Qin Chi got on the carriage, he turned back and waved goodbye to Song Jin. Song Jin just saw the matter clearly. It wasn''t until the carriage was getting further and further away that Song Jin turned around and got on the mule carriage, "Old Uncle Li, who was that person who just laughed at my husband-in-law?" "I don''t know him. He must be a student from Tachuan Academy." Old Li Tou said nonsense. Song Jin did not comment on this. After thinking about it, Old Li was embarrassed for a moment, "Wherever there are many people, you will inevitably encounter such villains, and they will just say a few words." "I see." Just as Song Jin said. Gan Shichun and several of his classmates who also disliked Qin Chi usually said bad things about Qin Chi in the academy, but in fact they did not dare to do anything harmful or play dirty tricks behind his back. Otherwise, Qin Chi would not tolerate them. Sometimes when facing such people head-on, you can exercise your endurance by following the instructions of Mr. Shanzhanghe. What is self-restraint? How to get a good reputation? Why are red flowers so eye-catching? Naturally, it needs green leaves to set off. Because Gan Shichun often slandered Qin Chi. Qin Chi''s generous and calm response earned him a good reputation. On the contrary, Gan Shichun and others gradually became alienated. As the saying goes, be close to a gentleman and stay far away from a villain. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! In the eyes of most classmates, Qin Chi is undoubtedly a gentleman compared to villains such as Gan Shichun. Arrive at Fucheng three days in advance. Then he stayed with the master at Ziyang Academy. As soon as he arrived at Ziyang Academy, Qin Chi watched a good show, which was the entanglement between Qin Mingsong and two girls. "Qian, you are finally here!" Meng Qingrui pulled Leyan over happily, "We came here in advance and went to Huangshan for a few days. We asked you to come in advance but refused. Did you miss it?" Behind the two of them was Lu Yanji. After Lu Yanji was admitted as a scholar, he came to Ziyang Academy to study. Qin Chi greeted the three of them and looked at Qin Mingsong not far away. "Hey, isn''t that Qin Xiucai?" Meng Qingrui was surprised. "Yes, it''s Brother Qin." Lu Yanji said with envy and sourness: "He is a famous person in the academy. Did you see it? The one in the pink dress is the young lady from the county prime minister''s family. The other one with the embroidered dress and skirt is from our mountain chief''s family and is from Fucheng. The famous talented woman Bai Cuiwei. Young Muai. I dont know how many students in the academy regard Bai Cuiwei, who is both talented and beautiful, as the bride in their dreams, but they have a cinnabar mole in their hearts. In front of flowers and under the moon, poems and books express feelings. The purpose of doing all kinds of tricks is to win the favor of beautiful women. By chance, Bai Cuiwei fell in love with Qin Mingsong. Although it was recently reported that Qin Mingsong was married, some women still didn''t want to believe it. This peach blossom luck is really enviable. Qin Chi glanced sideways at Lu Yanji. "Brother Yanji envies my brother-in-law? It''s not difficult to be like him, just write more good poems." "Forget it, please spare me." Lu Yanji mentioned that he had a headache when writing poetry, "You know clearly that poetry is my worst thing, and I can barely cope with exams." "Same same." Meng Qingrui smiled and said that he couldn''t learn it, but Le Yan was eager to try. "Come on, I''ll take Qi''an to the dormitory. In order to save a bed for you, I took great pains and invited others to have a meal at Piaoxiang Building." Meng Qingrui helped Qin Chi lift the book box and took the initiative to lead the way. Qin Chi reported to his master and left with Meng Qingrui and the other two without looking at Qin Mingsong again. On the contrary, it was Qin Mingsong. I accidentally saw Qin Chi''s back and recognized him at a glance. He was about to catch up with Qin Chi. He was stopped by the girl in pink skirt again. "Mr. Qin, I heard that you are getting married. Is this true?" the girl in the pink skirt asked with red eyes. Qin Mingsong admitted frankly, "It''s true." As soon as these words came out, the girl in the pink skirt burst into tears and ran away. Bai Cui gave Qin Mingsong a slightly aggrieved and resentful look, then turned and left. (End of chapter) Chapter 66 Government examination Chapter 66 Government Examination Qin Chi lived in the dormitory of Ziyang Academy. They were almost the same as ordinary candidates. Most of them stayed in the academy with Meng Qingrui and Le Yan, either reading or communicating with students. Qin Mingsong came to see him once during this period. Uncle-nephew communication is unfamiliar. Even worse than the classmates outside. Qin Mingsong said a few words without embarrassment, asking Qin Chi to go to him if he had anything to do. Qin Chi naturally responded politely. Wait for Qin Mingsong to leave. Leyan looked at his uncle and nephew and asked Meng Qingrui in a low voice: "Did you find anything weird?" "What''s weird?" Meng Qingrui didn''t know why. "They are their uncle and nephew. They are unfamiliar with each other?" "We haven''t seen each other a few times in a year. Isn''t it strange that we are unfamiliar? To be honest, his brother-in-law and Qi''an don''t spend as much time together as I do with Qi''an." Meng Qingrui said matter-of-factly. Leyan thought about it, it was true. The two of them attended a private school since they were young, and then entered the same academy. So the more I thought about it, the more it made sense, and Le Yan was led astray by Meng Qingrui unknowingly. Qin Chi came over and was speechless when he heard the conversation between the two, "Are you two so free? Tomorrow is the national examination, why don''t you take the time to review?" "My husband asked me to relax properly before the exam, so I don''t have to cram for anything." As soon as Meng Qingrui said this, Le Yan agreed very much. Le Yan added: "Sir, he only wants us to perform at our previous level." The two of them came to Fucheng in advance and took a trip to Huangshan. They said it was to relax before the exam so as to prepare for the exam in the best condition. In fact, they knew it in their hearts. Thousands of troops crossed the single-plank bridge. Its good to be successful! It doesn''t matter if you fail, you can just take the test again next year. Qin Chi looked at the two of them up and down. Looking at the classmates around them who were reading tirelessly with books in hand, they were indeed in a much more stable state of mind than the others. Qin Chi simply put down his book. The next day, at three o''clock in the Yin hour. Qin Chi and others got up and had some breakfast with little soup and water. Candidates from Yixian County took their identity documents, money, etc. and went to the Dakou Gate of Ziyang Academy to assemble at the beginning of Mao Shi. Holding lanterns again, we went to the examination room for previous government examinations together. There are three government examinations in total. The process of the first two games is not much different from that of the county examination. One session a day, ending before dark. The difference is that two college students are needed to act as guarantees, but the masters of these colleges have already made an agreement with others, so Qin Chi does not need to worry about them. As for the third game, only those who were on the A and B lists in the first two games are eligible to participate. Arrive in front of the examination room. "There are so many people. When will it be our turn in Yixian County?" Meng Qingrui stood on tiptoes and looked ahead. There were a lot of people in front of me, and they were rubbing shoulders one after another. There were the relatives and attendants who sent for the examination, the local students who acted as guarantees, as well as the government officials and government soldiers who maintained order. The Master reminded loudly: "Please be careful! Don''t squeeze off your hats and shoes. People who are disheveled will not be allowed into the examination room. Do you hear that?" "I heard it!" "I understand, Master." The candidates at Tachuan Academy responded one after another. I have to say that with Masters reminder, everyone was much more careful when squeezing forward. The order of admission is by county. There are a total of six counties in Huizhou Prefecture. Whichever county the yamen officer calls the name of is where the candidates will line up to enter. The inspection is more stringent than the county examination. Except for identity documents, test references and money, nothing else that candidates can bring in is allowed. The Four Treasures of the Study are all distributed by the government. It was Qin Chi''s turn to check. The soldier in charge looked at the examination guide, checked it casually, and shouted behind him. Immediately, a government servant came up respectfully, bowed, and personally led Qin Chi to the examination booth. The students who were waiting in line felt extremely sour after watching it. "Why doesn''t he need to check more? Is there someone else to lead the way?" the person waiting behind said sourly. The student standing in front of him looked back at him and said scornfully: "At first glance, you look like a rookie here for the first time. Only the chief cases of each county have such special treatment. What''s the matter with just checking? Everyone I can get the first place in the exam, is it necessary to cheat? Upon hearing this, the man did not dare to say a word. Qin Chi sat in the examination booth and looked around. This central position belongs to the candidates who are the focus of attention. The examination capitals of various counties are concentrated here. Qin Chi can see the examiner''s carved desk as long as he raises his head. It can be said that you are face to face with the examiners. No wonder the examiners are very casual. Want to cheat in this situation? It''s basically impossible. When the time came, the prefect Yang Lingyu came into the venue with several of this year''s examiners. They all went about business in a very serious manner. They read out the rules of the examination room and handed out the four treasures of the imperial palace. The candidates began to study ink. After waiting for a long time, there was no test paper. "quiet!" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Yang Lingyu sat at the examiner''s desk and was shocked, "The government examination is different from the county examination. No test papers are given out. You can just look at it later. All the candidates should prepare paper and ink first, and the test will start in a quarter of an hour." " Qin Chi lowered his eyelids. He rubbed the ink gently, thinking about something in his mind. Just now Yang Lingyu glanced at Qin Chi, and other examiners glanced at him several times. This makes Qin Chi, who has a lot of thoughts, inevitably think more. In fact, Qin Chi thought too much. The examiners will pay attention to Qin Chi, not because they know his origin, but because Qin Chi is too calm. Sitting here taking an exam, facing the examiner at such a close distance, the pressure is huge, and candidates with poor mental endurance will collapse. Together with Qin Chi, he is a candidate for the county case chief. At this time, there will be more or less restraint and nervousness. For example, the examinee next to Qin Chi had cold sweat on his forehead. Qin Chi, who looked calm and composed, was particularly conspicuous among the candidates. Its really not surprising that it caught the examiners attention. Some examiners even looked through the roster to check Qin Chi''s name and origin. "Bang!" "Come on, someone has fainted!" Qin Chi heard a commotion in the examination room behind him. Then someone was carried out of the examination room. Various situations always arise in the examination room every year, and the government officials handle them with ease. A quarter of an hour passed. Several government officials came over holding a wooden board. One of them stood in front of Qin Chi''s examination booth. There were words written on the wooden board, which were the examination questions. The first test was still about classics and meaning. It''s just that the question maker was a bit disloyal, and the question was obviously mixed up. It''s like the first half of the sentence comes from one book, and the second half of the sentence comes from another book. They add it all up and let you interpret it, and then write three sentences according to your personal point of view. A hundred-word article. This requires breaking the topic and the idea is novel. Once you make a mistake in solving a question, you wont have to take the exam later! Qin Chi placed the white paper and quickly copied down the test questions. After I had thought through the test questions in my mind and drafted the manuscript, I began to write hard without any distractions. While Qin Chi was concentrating on the exam, Song Jin was also thinking about him in Yi County. Mrs. Huang pricked her finger for the fifth time when she saw Song Jinxiu''s thing. "My wife, you are always absent-minded. Are you thinking about Mr. Qin?" Mrs. Huang wanted to reach out and take the sewing basket away from her several times. Song Jin nodded sheepishly, "At this hour, my husband should have entered the examination room." "Mr. Qin is the county''s chief criminal, so there will definitely be no problem in passing the government examination." "I''m not worried about this, I''m worried about whether my husband''s body and bones can bear it." Over the years, some of the candidates for the imperial examination walked in and were carried out. In addition, Qin Chi was unaccompanied this time. Song Jin has always felt on tenterhooks lately. (End of chapter) Chapter 67 Prefectural head Chapter 67 The head of the government case The third day of the government examination. Song Jin received the news at home that Qin Chi was on the list for the first time, and he was still number one. The person who came to report the news was Xing Lun. After passing through Fucheng and his party, Xing Lun seemed more calm and restrained, obviously growing up, and he was five points similar to the Xing Lun in Song Jin''s impression in his previous life. Xing Lun also brought food made by Yinlong. "Congratulations to my boss. Qin Xianggong won the first place in the first game. I think I can win another government case for you." "I accept your good words." Song Jin responded with a smile after hearing this, and then said modestly, "It''s not easy to get the head of the case in this mansion. It takes three exams to find out." "That''s right. Boss, this is the soup my mother made for you. She said it is for your health." Xing Lun handed over the food box again. Song Jin took it and expressed his gratitude. Then he put it aside on the table. Then Xing Lun chatted with Song Jin about what happened in Fucheng and explained the planning process one by one. Song Jin listened with rapt attention. "Boss, I brought back two masters of medicinal materials and five apprentices from the Zeng Family Pharmacy. They signed a contract of sale with the Zeng family. I spent some effort to get their contract. In addition... " Xing Lun said with great joy. Song Jin praised: "Well done!" This time Xing Lun was doing things secretly incognito. Therefore, Jifang did not openly participate in the division of interests. However, before the Zeng family was defeated, Xing Lun secretly bought out several people and poached a few medicinal farmers with good character. Just the talent they desperately need. It''s like taking a sip of soup on this matter. Xing Lun didn''t sit there for long, only half an hour. It won''t be good if it goes any longer. Xing Lun even saw Mrs. Huang poking her head in the kitchen. Although you are not afraid of slanting shadows if you are upright, you still have to be careful to avoid being alone for too long and attracting criticism. After Xing Lun leaves. Mrs. Huang came over, and Song Jin asked her to go to the kitchen to get a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and started eating the food prepared by Yinlong. In addition to soup, there are two or three snacks. These are all things that are good for the fetus. Day after day, until the ninth day of the government examination. "Congratulations to my family, congratulations to my family! Chief Qin has won the first position of the government examination again. We are here to tell you the good news." Early in the morning, two officials from the Yamen came running over. It was Mrs. Huang who opened the door, everyone was smiling, and the neighbors nearby came to watch the fun. Song Jin came out wearing a power fence. A big red envelope was given to each of the two officers. The official pinched the red envelope and said a few good words. Then he left with satisfaction and continued to the next house to announce the good news. Just at this moment, a carriage stopped at the door. The driver is Boss Qin. Sitting outside was Old Qin. In addition, just like dumplings, several people got off the car, including Mr. Liu, Mr. Li and Mr. Erlang, and even Song Xiu came. Song embroidery also wears a power fence. It looks like it was borrowed from Mr. Li. "Did the official leave? Why did he leave so quickly?" Old Liu got out of the car and saw only the back of the official who announced the good news, and people watching the excitement around. Old Man Qin was also a little pity. Just a little closer to catching up! Song Jin came up to greet them and asked everyone to go in first. "Granny Huang, go to the kitchen to boil water and make a pot of tea and bring it to the hall." Mrs. Huang responded and went to the kitchen. When entering the house. Old Mrs. Liu and Song Xiu looked at Mrs. Huang''s back. Song Xiu said angrily: "Oh, my sister is living a good life. She has servants to serve her." "Grandma Huang lives next door. She saw that I was pregnant and had difficulty walking, so she kindly came over to help. She is not a servant of mine." Anyway, as long as Song Jin doesn''t admit it, no one can blame her. It doesn''t matter what you think. Mrs. Huang came out of the kitchen, looked at Song Xiu with an evil look in her eyes and said, "What are you talking about, little lady? Is it wrong for my old lady to show kindness?" This time he was carrying a spatula with great momentum. He looked like he was fighting, and he didn''t look like a servant. Old Mrs. Liu''s eyes looked back and forth at Mrs. Huang''s clothes, which were better than what she wore. Then she looked at Song Jin''s plain clothes, a cotton dress with no patterns and only a wooden hairpin on her head. He was just wearing the bracelet that Li had given him before. This look is not as rich as Mrs. Huang. Mrs. Huang is wearing silver bracelets on both wrists, which are worth several taels just by looking at them. I thought to myself that this should not be a servant! Old Mrs. Liu turned and glared at Song Xiu, "You''re not sharp enough. Why don''t you apologize to Aunt Huang?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Mother-in-law, do you really believe what they said?" Song Xiu didn''t believe it. This woman must be a servant bought by Song Jin. "Go away, today is a happy day. If you start trouble again, I will ask the boss to send you back." Old Liu pushed Song Xiu aside and began to patrol the entire house arrogantly. Old Man Qin, Li and others were already standing in front of the hall door. Erlang also looked left and right happily. There is nothing interesting about this small house, so it doesnt take a moment to look at it all over again. Mr. Liu looked at the hall, then walked around the east and west wings, and then walked to the kitchen. This house is very small. It is much smaller than the one where a large family lives in Qinjiagou. After Song Xiu walked around, he saw that the furnishings were simple, even the furniture was new, and there were no valuable ornaments. "Tsk, tsk, I thought I was enjoying a blessing, but this is it? This palm-sized house is not as well lived for the servants as before." Song Xiu felt a little more comfortable. As long as Song Jin''s life is not good, she will be fine! Song Jin didn''t even raise his eyes after hearing this, and was too lazy to talk to Song Xiu. When Song Xiu saw this, he suddenly felt bored. His eyes fell on Song Jin''s slightly protruding belly again, and he secretly grinded his teeth. She is actually pregnant! Old Qin sat in the hall and said nothing, but everyone could see that he was very happy. At this time, Mrs. Huang made a pot of tea and poured it for everyone one by one. Old man Qin and boss Qin were sitting and drinking tea. Old Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Huang started chatting. Mrs. Huang talked about the situation when the official messenger came to report the news just now. It was just a back and forth, but everyone listened with interest and never tired of it. Mrs. Li took Song Jin into the room and talked about her personal feelings. The house that used to be peaceful was extremely lively today. Another reason why the family came here today is that Qin Chi will come back from Fucheng and can''t wait to come to the county seat. "Hey, the head of the case is back!" Someone was shouting outside. Old Man Qin shouted excitedly: "Boss, hurry up, prepare the firecrackers!" "Okay dad, I''ll do it right now!" "Uncle, let me help!" It''s busy outside again. Mrs. Li walked out of the east wing when she heard the noise. Song Jin followed her out and saw everyone gathered together with happy faces, until the firecrackers crackled at the door, and someone walked in among the fireworks. It was Qin Chi who had returned from Fucheng. He wore a round-collared robe, which was loose and comfortable. He wears a cloth belt around his waist and wears black cloth shoes. He is simple and unpretentious, and his behavior is modest and polite, with a natural bearing. At this moment, Song Jin was slightly absent-minded. It''s only been half a month, but it seems like we''ve been separated for a long time... Chapter 68 The matter is slightly complicated Chapter 68 This matter is slightly complicated "What are you so proud of? Humph, I just passed the examination as a child student, and my husband is still a scholar." The short-lived ghost in his previous life did not take part in the county or government examinations! Song Xiu was sour and jealous. Today she discovered that Qin Chi was not inferior to Qin Mingsong at all, and even looked more exquisite and outstanding than Qin Mingsong. Song Jin turned a deaf ear. Song Xiu felt even more angry. So, Song Xiu said maliciously: "There are only a few days until the ninth day of October. Sister, you should make preparations early. The coffin also needs to be ordered in advance." Song Jin suddenly turned back to look at Song Xiu. For a long time, Song Jin laughed angrily and retorted in a low voice: "I heard news a few days ago. Some people said that Qin Mingsong was envied by everyone in Ziyang Academy. In the front, there was the lady from the county prime minister''s family who was infatuated with him, and in the back there was the mountain chief''s family. Favored by talented women. Compared with them, who do you think you are? In the coming year, you will have an extra wife, or a twin, so congratulations to you in advance." "impossible!" Song Xiu was so excited that he shouted. Qin Chi strode over and stood in front of Song Jin, looking at Song Xiu warily. This protective gesture irritated Song Xiu even more, making her eyes red with anger. "Song Jin! You lied, I''m going to fight you!" "What are you doing? Bah!" When Old Liu came up, he pointed at Song Xiu and cursed, "Why are you crying on such a great day? It''s bad luck!" Song Xiu stamped her feet angrily and said angrily: "Do you know what she said? She made up bad things about Fourth Brother, saying that he was having an affair with a bunch of women in Fucheng! He will have a wife with an outlaw soon!" "Xiu''er, don''t talk nonsense. I didn''t explain it clearly. I just said that the ladies of the county prime minister''s family and the head of Ziyangshan''s family treat my brother-in-law differently." Song Jin''s angry face had long since faded away, and he spoke calmly and explained unhurriedly. When it comes to how disgusting Song Xiu is, Song Jin also knows. Old Liu''s eyes flashed. Old Man Qin asked: "Dalang, you just came back from Fucheng, have you heard anything?" "true." Qin Chi confirmed it as soon as he opened his mouth. Mrs. Li was listening, with sarcasm flashing in her eyes. Men are like this. How many of them can stay together forever? Old man Qin still wanted to ask. Qin Chi took the lead and said: "Grandpa, my uncle will be home in the afternoon. You can ask him personally then. I just heard some things and don''t take them seriously." "Okay! Don''t mention these things for now, lest you spoil the fun. Today is Dalang''s festive day. Let''s buy some ingredients and set up two or three tables when we go home. The clan will definitely go to worship their ancestors." Old man Qin finished speaking with a red face. If the children in the clan are promising, they will definitely worship their ancestors. Qin Chi will be the first child born this year and will definitely be recorded in the family tree. The last time Old Man Qin was so happy was when Qin Mingsong was a scholar. Qin Chi didn''t stop him. Just setting up two or three tables in the countryside is not high-profile. Just when Qin Chi opened his mouth to ask Mrs. Huang to make something to eat, he temporarily stopped talking and asked Erlang to buy some meat buns and sesame seed cakes with money, and cut a few kilograms of braised pork on the way. Wait until everyone is satisfied and have a meal. Old Qin took Boss Qin and Erlang to the market to buy ingredients. Song Xiu said she was going to buy some daily necessities, and Mr. Liu wanted to follow. It happened that Mrs. Li was going to send the embroidery products to the embroidery workshop, and she and Song Xiu were traveling together. Qin Chi asked Lao Li Tou to send them to East Street. Only Qin Chi and Song Jin are left at home. Song Jin asked him to go back to his room and rest. Qin Chi took her to take a nap together. Song Jin was inexplicably relieved in his arms, but she woke up after sleeping for a while and couldn''t fall back asleep. Qin Chi''s big hand caressed the back of her head, one after another, gently and rhythmically. Even if you say nothing. Song Jin''s nose couldn''t help but feel sore. The ninth day of October is the death anniversary of Qin Chi in his previous life. As Song Xiu said... there are only a few days left. If Qin Chi pretends to be ill, then there is another hidden reason for his death in his previous life; if it is a real illness, Song Jin is helpless. Doctor Jing is already a famous miracle doctor in the dynasty, specializing in difficult and complicated diseases. If even he can''t cure Qin Chi... "Ms. sir?" Song Jin suddenly spoke up. "Hmm? Madam, what do you want to say?" Qin Chi''s deep voice seemed to ring above his head. Song Jin asked in a muffled voice: "How about I go search for famous doctors for you?" Qin Chi chuckled. Laughter conveys joy. Song Jin suddenly felt a warm and soft touch between her eyebrows, as well as the hot breath he breathed out. It was obviously not very hot, but a strange feeling spread from her eyebrows, making her feel numb. Song Jin asked again: "Is it okay?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Why don''t you ask me if I''m pretending to be sick?" Qin Chi didn''t believe she didn''t have any doubts. Song Jin said sincerely: "I did have doubts, but no matter how smart a person is, he will not start pretending to be sick when he is just learning to talk. When we first met, you said that life is short..." "This matter is slightly complicated." For a moment, Qin Chi didn''t know what to say, so he tightened his arms around Song Jin. I told too many lies before. Think carefully about how to round... Qin Chi gently caressed Song Jin''s head and said slowly: "Mother, have you ever heard that seven live and eight don''t live? I was born in the eighth month of my mother''s pregnancy, and I was born with a weak disease. My parents took care of me when I was a child. I''ve been to many doctors, and they all said that my body is weak and it''s difficult to take care of myself..." Just as Qin Chi was thinking about what to say next, there was a loud knock on the door outside. "Da Lang! Da Lang''s wife!" Old Mrs. Liu shouted loudly outside, "Come out, Mrs. Song! Your girl is acting like a monster again. She dares to disobey her mother-in-law. When Si''er comes home today, she will be divorced!" Qin Chi raised his handsome eyebrows lightly. Song Jin was speechless for a while. He simply got into Qin Chi''s arms and said he didn''t want to hear it. Qin Chi looked at her with a smile and covered her ears with his sleeves with great interest, "I''ll go out and take a look, you continue to sleep." Song Jin nodded slightly. Qin Chi went out and saw Mrs. Liu with a straight face. Old Mrs. Liu looked behind him. "Where are the Da Song people?" "Grandma, my wife is a twin. It is the time when she is lethargic. I let her have a good rest and try to give you a strong great-grandson." Qin Chi raised his hand to cover his mouth. He looked like he wanted to cough. Especially the last sentence, which made Old Liu unable to say anything while holding back his curses. Qin Chi then asked: "Who provoked grandma to lose such a temper? It''s really unfilial." These words touched Old Liu''s heart, "It''s not that little Song." Just when Mr. Liu wanted to say something bad about Song Xiu. Qin Chi spoke again at the right time, "When my uncle comes back, I must tell him carefully how old he is and how he dares not to respect his grandma because he can''t even control his own wife. It''s really disrespectful." Should." Old Liu''s old face twisted for a moment. He turned and rolled his eyes at Qin Chi. He is indeed a bad scoundrel, with a dark heart since he was a child. "This has nothing to do with your uncle, huh." Not wanting to talk nonsense to Qin Chi, Old Liu twisted his waist and hurried towards the hall. Chapter 69 Big brother is mighty Chapter 69 Big brother is mighty Erlang, who was hiding aside to watch the excitement, gave Qin Chi a thumbs up. "Brother is mighty!" "Didn''t you go shopping with your grandfather?" Qin Chi thought about it and thought that they had not been out for a long time. "Didn''t you just come back?" Erlang''s face turned red and he said, "I just happened to see Grandma and my aunt having a fight. Grandma wanted her to help her pay the bill, but she said she didn''t have any money..." No need to hear this anymore. Qin Chi knew what was going on, "So grandma wanted to take advantage, but she started making trouble before she could take advantage?" "that is." Erlang nodded repeatedly. It is rare for Song Xiu to come to the county town, so he naturally buys a lot. Mr. Liu scolded Song Xiu for being a prodigal, and at the same time wanted to take the things Song Xiu bought as his own. There was a fuss, so he wanted to find Song Jin. When we returned, there were so many things that no one could sit down. Qin Chi went to the next door and got a mule cart and carriage on loan. The whole family went back to Qinjiagou that day. On the way back. Song Jin had someone send a letter to the pharmacy. Ever since he learned that he was not careful enough and was almost found out, Song Jin tried to go to the drug store as little as possible. Fortunately, Xing Lun invited two masters back. Manpower is sufficient for the time being. Of course, the quality will not be as good as Song''s before, but it will be better than what is on the market. It can be sold to Shun''an at a lower price. Two horse-drawn carriages and a mule cart entered the village, causing quite a stir. Many young and old men in the village came out to take a look. When they saw it was Old Man Qin and others, they all came over to express their congratulations when they found out that Qin Chi was pregnant with a child. . Old man Qin''s face was full of spring breeze. His back was straight and he seemed to be several years younger. Mr. Liu also had a bright face. When Qin Laoer, Xiao Liu and others in the room heard that they were coming back from the county town, they put down their work and ran out. Everyone was smiling. Qin Chi helped Song Jin get out of the car. "Madam, go back to your room first. I''ll go to the patriarch''s house later." According to etiquette, Qin Chi needs to see the patriarch''s house when he comes back. Song Jinwu responded and looked at everyone moving the things on the car back to the house, "I will go back to the house later and help move the things first." "There are many people in the family, and you are the only one missing." Qin Chi didn''t let her go and led her in. Xiao Liu said cheerfully: "That''s right, there are so many people in the family, why do we need you as a pregnant person to help? Da Lang''s wife, your pregnancy is precious." Can it? Miaomiao is the only one in the big house. In this family''s eyes, it is absolutely precious. The villagers who were watching the excitement came over to help, "My wife, please come into the house quickly. I will do this rough work." "Just, how much work can there be? Just move a little bit by one person." The folks are particularly enthusiastic today. Song Jin could only say thank you and enter the house. This time, the Qin family had just returned from the town to buy things, and word spread throughout the village, and some good-hearted aunts and ladies gathered together to chat. "You bought a lot of things and got rich?" Someone started to get sour. "Aren''t you going to make a fortune? The old blind man said that Qin Shi''s family married two golden girls and returned home. Not long after he entered the house, his family became more and more prosperous." "I heard that the elder man''s wife is a fairy?" The ladies started talking about Song Jin again. After chatting, not many people have seen Song Jin''s appearance, because Song Jin always wears a power fence when going out. "She is really a prosperous woman. I have never seen a young man fall in love with a young man before, but she fell in love with him when she walked in!" "No!" "It is unlucky to marry a child born among gods. Qin Dalang is so weak that he will only live for a few days..." Suddenly an old woman said sarcastically. Old Liu, who had just approached, exploded when he heard this. He put his hands on his hips and cursed: "Mrs. Wang! Your mouth is full of **** in broad daylight. I''ll eat your shit! If you dare to curse my eldest grandson, are you afraid of dying and pulling out his tongue and putting it in the frying pan?" ? "Old Mrs. Liu, let''s not tell anyone the truth. Who in the village doesn''t know whether your eldest grandson will live long?" "Shut up! I''ll tear your mouth apart!" Old Mrs. Liu rolled up her sleeves and rushed towards Mrs. Wang. The two soon started to fight. Old Liu didn''t like Qin Chi. But he would not let outsiders slander and ruin the reputation of the old Qin family. I saw a fight starting outside. The twins playing at the entrance of the courtyard rushed home like two small cannonballs. Shiro shouted childishly: "Mom is not good! Something happened! Grandma and Grandma Wang next door are fighting. Go and help grandma fight!" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "What? Where?" Mrs. Liu put down the pork in her hand, picked up the fire stick and walked out of the kitchen aggressively. Wulang said anxiously: "At the door, at the entrance of the courtyard!" Song Jin in the room heard the movement. He hurried out of the house and happened to see Xiao Liu''s back. Mrs. Lin put down her work and walked out quickly. Song Xiu also followed out! Song Jin was stunned. Wondering if you should help? Just when she wanted to go, Qin Chi strode over and grabbed her wrist, saying at a loss of whether to laugh or cry: "You are a two-bodied person. Stop getting involved in the fights between A Nai and the others." "Isn''t it right that everyone is out, so why don''t I show up?" "Then let me go and take a look?" Qin Chi wouldn''t let Song Jin go out. Mrs. Li slowly came over and said, "When women fight, you, a grown man, don''t get involved." "Am I worried about grandma?" Qin Chi said against his will. Mrs. Li looked at her son with deep meaning in her eyes. Boss Qin smiled naively and said, "My eldest son is a filial man, but first I need to ask your grandfather if he will let you go out and help?" Qin Chi stroked his forehead. If you ask, you will definitely not be allowed to go. But things of filial piety still have to be done and done. Sure enough, when Qin Chi went to the main room, he saw old man Qin, his second uncle, and his third uncle here. Qin Chi asked a few questions, and Old Man Qin asked him to stay. The rules of the village. In other words, it is the rules of the Qin family. When women and children fight in the clan, men cannot interfere. After all, a woman would lose a few hairs or lose some skin in a fight, but a man could be killed in a fight. Anyone who breaks the rules will be cast aside for a while. "Dad, you really don''t want to go take a look?" Qin Laoer was ready to go out. Old Man Qin glared at her, "What are you looking at? What happens after you go out? Watching your mother fighting with others, do you want to help or not? If you help, you are breaking the rules. If you don''t help, someone will scold you for being unfilial. " It doesn''t sound good if word gets out. It''s better not to go out. When Qin Laoer thought that this was really the case, he simply scolded: "That Mrs. Wang is just a spitter. She will keep an eye on whoever''s life is better." "Second uncle, wait until you have time to put a sack on her eldest grandson. I heard that Grandma Wang loves her eldest grandson the most." Qin Chi gave advice very seriously. Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San actually thought it was feasible. Old Man Qin was not angry, "Don''t worry, your mother is not someone to be trifled with." He still doesn''t know his wife''s virtue. Compared to Mrs. Wang, she is almost the same, but she is a little prettier than Mrs. Wang. Old man Qin has a clear mind about these matters. (End of chapter) Chapter 70 The most negative people are scholars Chapter 70: Most of the people with negative hearts are scholars Sure enough it didn''t take long. Old Mrs. Liu was like a victorious rooster, walking into the courtyard with great vigor, looking a little embarrassed. But people are particularly spiritual. It was obvious that he had won the battle! Song Jin stood under the eaves and saw Old Liu and others coming in, followed by Song Xiu at the end. Old Liu, Xiao Liu and Lin had some signs of fighting on their bodies, but Song Xiu was the only one who was clean and his hair was not messed up. Song Jin happened to catch Song Xiu''s gaze. The two sisters looked away almost at the same time. Its all inconvenient! Qin Chi ignored the farce and told Old Man Qin that he was going to the patriarch''s house. Old Man Qin thought about it and said: "I''ll go with you, and then I''ll stop by a few uncles'' houses and invite them to have dinner at home tomorrow." Qin Chi has no reason not to respond. The grandfather and grandson carried a bag of pastries and went out. As soon as he arrived at the door, he unexpectedly saw Qin Mingsong coming back. Then he put down the things he brought back, ignored Song Xiu''s resentful eyes, and went to the patriarch''s house with Mr. Qin and his grandson. Song Xiu didn''t know what he was thinking. He actually came to Song Jin again and looked her up and down, "My elders are being bullied, how can you stand idly by and watch? You don''t know how hateful that Mrs. Wang is, she even pulled a handful of my mother-in-law''s hair." Song Jin smiled and said, "Really? Then you are very lucky, your hair is not messed up." Originally, Mrs. Liu was even more unhappy with Song Jin when she heard what Song Xiu said. But when Song Jin said another sentence, Old Liu immediately looked at Song Xiu and found that Song Xiu''s hair was indeed not messy. The good impression that Song Xiu had just to help her fight suddenly disappeared. Song Xiu was so angry as she held her handkerchief that she could only vent her temper on Song Jin. Just when she wanted to say something to irritate Song Jin. Song Jin took the initiative and looked at her sympathetically, "Xiu''er should pay close attention to the man who took the trouble to **** her away. Don''t be as useless as I was, just watching my husband have children with his wife. , stay and fly together. Song Jin said the next words very softly. Song Xiu stood closest to her, but could hear her clearly. Hearing this, Song Xiu opened her eyes wide and said, "You are just making this up to disgust me, right? Fourth brother is definitely not that kind of person. How good was he to you in your last life? You have been doing nothing for seven years, and he has not divorced you." "No way, you still think I can''t give birth?" Song Jin finally learned the strangeness of yin and yang after living two lifetimes. "I-" Song Xiu was speechless. It was impossible to refute for a moment. During the marriage exchange, Song Xiu slandered Song Jin in front of Old Liu that Song Jin could not have children. After Song Jin suddenly became pregnant, Old Liu often used this to tease her in private. "I''ve been pregnant for several months..." Song Jin lightly covered her lips with a handkerchief and looked at Song Xiu with a half-smile. The words were light, but they were like a heavy slap on Song Xiu''s face, making her cheeks burn. The fact that Song Xiu didn''t want to believe was pointed out nakedly. Song Jin squinted at her, "You don''t think I''m deliberately setting someone up, do you? If you don''t believe me, you can ask someone to go to Fucheng to inquire." Song Xiu''s expression suddenly changed. Song Jin knew that the effect had been achieved. He deliberately found something for Song Xiu to do so that she would not always stare at him like a mad dog. In the previous life, Song Jin had been trained by his father since he was a child, and the nun he hired to teach him came from a certain aristocratic family in the capital. As a result, he develops a temperament that is too gentle and soft, loyal to his husband, and filial to his elders. Later, I suffered a lot and gradually grew up. But in many matters, he adheres to the principle of "bearing one step to calm down, and taking a step back to open up the sky". Therefore, when he learned that his husband had an affair, he acquiesced to the matter, thus humiliating himself and helping others. If you live again, your mentality will be different. Instead of letting Song Xiu show off his power in front of him, it would be better to let her and Qin Mingsong torture each other. I really want to see if Qin Mingsong can live a prosperous life without her Song Jin in this life, build a good reputation step by step, and reach the heights of his previous life. Song Jin didn''t know at this time. When a woman can calmly tolerate her husband having an extramarital affair, it means to a large extent that the woman has no feelings for her husband. There is no jealousy if there is no feeling. Therefore Song Jin can always remain calm. However, she was really disgusted by what Qin Mingsong did, and Song Xiu kept finding trouble for her in this life, so she didn''t mind pushing them. Song Xiu is not her. He wouldn''t have the good temper to tolerate Qin Ming''s concubine. With Song Xiu''s strong jealousy, it''s hard to say what will happen. Song Jin could predict that Sifang would be in trouble in the future. But Song Xiu was more calm than Song Jin expected. When Qin Chi and the others went around to the elders'' houses and invited everyone they wanted to invite tomorrow, they went home and had a harmonious dinner, and they were still in peace. The night begins. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Tonight, Qin Chi found that his wife''s eyes were bright and she was paying attention to what was going on outside from time to time. He didn''t know why for a while, so he kept paying attention to the outside, but nothing happened for a long time. "What are you expecting, madam?" Qin Chi couldn''t help but ask. Song Jin pursed her lips and smiled, "I was wondering if Xiu''er would get into trouble with my uncle." "You mean what happened during the day?" Qin Chi understood immediately. He didn''t expect that his wife still had a bad and bad side, "Then the lady may be disappointed." Song Jin raised his eyes and asked, "What do you think Mr. Xian said?" "My grandfather asked my uncle, and he admitted that this was indeed the case. He explained that he had participated in several poetry gatherings organized by his classmates and had written a few poems and gained some fame. Someone had shown him a favorable impression, but he said Love ends with etiquette. His family won''t do anything to him. Qin Mingsong used this excuse again, which was enough to deal with the simple-minded Song Xiu. At this time, Song Xiu would probably think that those women were shameless and took the initiative to pester Qin Mingsong, just like Chen Donger from the village chief''s family. If even Song Xiu can''t be convinced, then it''s not Qin Mingsong. Song Jin was a little disappointed. I originally wanted to go to the theater, but I couldn''t do it tonight. I really admire Song Xiu! Song Jin glanced sideways at Qin Chi. That look in his eyes made Qin Chi see the evil in it, and he felt inexplicably offended by his wife. What''s going on? "The most negative people are scholars." Song Jin snorted and got on the bed to rest. Qin Chi rarely saw his wife''s temper, and found it interesting and a bit unfair. "Madam, you can''t overturn a whole boat with one stroke." "I''m not referring to my husband, why are you so nervous?" Song Jin asked angrily. Qin Chi couldn''t answer this. I''m afraid that another sentence will make it even more unclear. Song Jin didn''t look at him and kept talking to himself: "When scholars are entangled with women and are worried that others will misunderstand them, they usually say that being in love ends with being polite. When the incident comes to light, what do you think they will say? " "What did you say?" Qin Chi asked. "The love of a gentleman ends with etiquette, but is more than etiquette." Song Jin sneered. Anyway, they all have their sources, and it is the scholars who have the final say. Didn''t Qin Ming borrow this sentence in his previous life when he was raising his wife in the outer chamber? Anyway, scholars can always find a bunch of reasonable explanations for their shameless behavior. Qin Chi lay quietly next to his wife. You must not mess with the lady tonight! Chapter 71 Whats going on? Chapter 71 Whats going on? Early the next morning. Song Jin picked up a washbasin and walked out of the house. It was immediately discovered that the Qin family was very lively today. We were going to prepare a few banquets and borrowed tables, chairs and benches from neighbors. We had to borrow tableware and cutlery if we didn''t have enough. Mr. Liu started busy early in the morning. My aunt and sister-in-law are also here today. When Qin Chi and Song Jin got married, they didn''t set up wine, but when Qin Mingsong got married, they set up two tables, so only Aunt Qin and Aunt Qin came, and no one else came. This time the whole family is here! The children in the yard were already playing together. Song Jin didn''t see Qin Chi. On the other hand, Qin Mingsong was chatting with his eldest uncle and younger brother-in-law in the yard. Song Xiu stood next to Qin Mingsong, shy and rosy, looking like she had been well nourished last night. This is obviously what Song Jin guessed. Song Xiu was coaxed by Qin Mingsong. But Song Jin doesn''t care too much anymore. After all, Song Xiu is coaxed now, and will still explode when Qin Mingsong''s outer room is discovered in the future. When Song Jin came out. Besides Qin Mingsong, there were two uncles standing in the yard. Uncle Qin was also a country boy, so there was nothing wrong with her. It was just that she had never seen such a beauty as Song Jin, so she took a few more glances at her. Sister-in-law Qin lost his soul at the first glance. It''s not like he hasn''t seen beauties in town. Carrying Aunt Qin on his back, he had been to the brothel several times to have a good time. He thought he had seen the world, but this was the first time he discovered that there were such stunning beauties in the world. His eyes were stunned and he couldn''t look back for a moment. Come to your senses. Song Jinxiu frowned. Qin Mingsong turned sideways to block his sister-in-law''s sight, "Second brother-in-law, let''s sit in the main room while Xiu''er goes to make a pot of tea and comes in." "Okay, sir, please wait a moment." Song Xiu responded delicately, turned around and went to the kitchen. My brother-in-law just came back to his senses, and when he saw Song Xiu''s posture, his eyes widened again! Qin Mingsong''s eyes flashed with disgust. At first he didn''t agree with his second sister marrying this man, but his second sister wanted to marry him because he was from the town and his family owned a grain and oil shop. The eldest uncle is somewhat in awe of Qin Mingsong. Ordinary people in this world admire scholars very much, not to mention Qin Mingsong is also a scholar. The two uncles followed Qin Mingsong into the main room. Song Jin also came to the kitchen. Several women in the house were busy working. "You are the man''s wife, right? You got up so late? What are you talking about? Come over and help with the work." Aunt Qin looked at Song Jin with critical eyes. Very good looking. Thinking that the men in her family were stunned just now, for some reason, Aunt Qin felt that it was very annoying to look at Song Jin again. What''s the use of looking good? Its not like she married into the countryside. But she married and went to the town. After comparison, Aunt Qin felt a sense of superiority in her heart. Song Jin turned a deaf ear to her words. Aunt Qin looks a bit like Mr. Liu, and her personality is also very similar. "Second sister, my sister is different from us. She never has to work at home." Song Xiu said with an unintentional smile. Aunt Qin was very unhappy, "We are both daughters-in-law, but she is still a junior. Why doesn''t she work?" "Wow, didn''t you know? My father-in-law personally allowed my sister to have her own family. So, unlike us, she has a very good life and was born to enjoy happiness." Song Xiu spoke harshly because he was afraid that Song Jin would be too comfortable. Make tea. Song Xiu passed by Song Jin and snorted: "Can''t you see that my husband and I are in love?" "What kind of madness is this?" Song Jin was once again shocked that Song Xiu''s mind was different from ordinary people. Song Xiu left the kitchen carrying the teapot. Song Jin, on the other hand, took the basin and went to the water tank to fetch water. Aunt Qin looked at Song Jin again and began to preach. Song Jin just looked at her coldly, and Aunt Qin turned green with anger, "What''s your attitude? Are you arrogant? Are you an elder like me?" "If you want to teach me a lesson, it''s not my sister''s turn. How can a married woman have the nerve to come to her parents'' house and tell her what to do?" Song Jin hated Aunt Qin in her previous life. Including her whole family, no one is good. Song Jin never thought about pleasing anyone in this life, so he just started doing it and his temper got worse. Aunt Qin stood up angrily and was about to accuse Song Jin. Xiao Liu put down the barrel with a loud bang, "I said, second sister, you''ve had enough. You have to wait and see when you want to stir up trouble? Has the wife of the elder man provoked you? She''ll stir up trouble as soon as she comes." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "I wasn''t just..." Aunt Qin is a few years younger than Lao Er Qin. Before she got married, Mrs. Liu married into the Qin family. At that time, Mrs. Qin was not afraid of Mrs. Liu, but she was a little afraid of her second sister-in-law. Xiao Liu said angrily: "If you want to help, just help. If you don''t want to help, just go back to town. If you dare to stir up trouble today, I will tell my parents, huh." Aunt Qin held back her anger and continued to scrape the hair from the big pig''s trotters in the basin. Xiao Liu really doesn''t like this second sister. I have to marry to the town, saying that I want to marry to the town to enjoy happiness. Not only did she ask for five taels of silver as a dowry, she also said that she would win over her mother''s family when she established herself in the town. The result? She has been married for ten years and has never seen her win over anyone. During the holidays, they only have three melons and two dates, which is not as grand as those country people. Ms. Lin pursed her lips and snickered, secretly giving a thumbs up to Mr. Liu. Xiao Liu was even more in high spirits after being recognized. Song Jin was also surprised by this situation. I really didn''t expect that Mrs. Liu would speak for herself. In her previous life, Mrs. Liu had a bad temper towards her, just like she does towards Song Xiu now. She would not deliberately stir up trouble but she also had a bad face. The only difference. It is estimated that Song Jin changed his husband. Soon Song Jin understood that he was probably influenced by Qin Chi. Qin Chi is very good to the children at home. The ones who benefited the most were Erlang and Sanlang. The two children were able to go to private school because of Qin Chi''s help. No wonder Xiao Liu would protect Song Jin. Song Jin looked at Xiao Liu gratefully and whispered into her ear, "Second Aunt, I still have a piece of cotton cloth over there. You can use it to make a dress later." Mr. Liu''s eyes brightened and he nodded repeatedly. I feel even more happy in my heart, but my wealth is not exposed. Therefore, she refrained from saying anything, but the smile on her lips became even wider. Song Jin returned to the room carrying half a basin of water. Song Jin completely ignored Aunt Qin''s unkind eyes and Aunt Qin''s scrutinizing gaze. Just unimportant people. Aunt Qin waited for Song Jin to go away, then she said in a low voice: "It''s a big house, no wonder my mother doesn''t like it. The older one doesn''t work when she marries into the Qin family, and the same goes for the younger one." "Some people have a good life, but we have a bad life." Aunt Qin was so angry that she had nowhere to vent her anger. At this time, all the women in the family were busy with work, even Mrs. Liu was not idle. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are different. Its really no wonder that outsiders are making sour remarks. And when some people feel sad, they will inevitably want to stir up trouble. Chapter 72 My brother-in-law has an outside wife? Chapter 72: My brother-in-law has a wife? "Mom, how could you let a junior sit on top of you?" Aunt Qin came to the old Liu family and said angrily, "If she is not filial to you, you can punish her. No matter what, she will not dare to disobey you. If she dares to disobey her elders, she can have her locked up in the ancestral hall to reflect on her. "If it doesn''t work, I''ll give it up!" Aunt Qin looked around with malicious intent, then whispered in Old Liu''s ear, "It''s time to wait, sell him, it''s worth hundreds of taels at least." "Crack!" Mrs. Liu stretched out her hand and pinched Aunt Qin''s arm hard, which made Aunt Qin grin. "She is pregnant with my great-grandson, so don''t act like a monster to me." Mrs. Liu no longer liked Song Jin, but she was looking forward to the birth of her great-grandson. Who doesnt look forward to four generations living under one roof? Mrs. Liu poured the pig food into the pig trough, asked Aunt Qin to help clean it up, and then returned to the kitchen to help. Regarding her two daughters, Mr. Liu has always been average, except that the younger daughter is eloquent and can get a little favor from her. Wait for the two to leave. Two people came out from the side. Qin Chi''s eyes were sharp and angry, "Qin Yi, I want their husband and wife to have a leg." "I obey my orders." Qin Yi responded. I was about to leave but thought of business again. The two of them came here to talk, but they happened to hear that Aunt Qin was plotting against Song Jin with vicious intentions. "Sir, please take a look." Qin Yi took out a booklet from his arms, with rows of small words on it, "This is the secret guard protecting the madam. Yesterday I overheard the conversation between the madam and Song Xiu. He felt weird and suspicious, so he hesitated all night before coming. Report to the Young Master. When you see the above content. Qin Chi''s face that didn''t change color despite the collapse of Mount Tai was particularly wonderful at this moment. The ninth day of October? ! Song Xiu asked Song Jin to prepare the coffin? For some reason, Qin Chi intuitively felt that the date was related to him. Then there are Song Jin''s counterattacks. coming year? My brother-in-law has an outside wife? Twins? Not only the secret guards thought it was weird. Qin Chi also found it strange, just like the situation when the sisters first arrived at the Qin family. They had clearly just arrived at the Qin family, but they seemed to be very familiar with each other. At that time, Song Xiu was sure that he would die, so he resorted to tricks to change his marriage. Qin Chi ordered: "It is forbidden to spread this matter to outsiders." "As commanded." Qin Chi waved his hand to signal Qin Yi to retreat. He read the contents in the booklet again, and his eyes did not move away for a long time on the ninth day of October, which made him tremble with fear. Yesterday, Qin Chi discovered that Song Jin was not in a good mood. He thought it was due to pregnancy. Doctor Jing had said that women might become sensitive and suspicious during pregnancy, or their tastes might change, etc. He never thought that the reason would be here. ! The ninth day of October! The anniversary of his death? Did Song Xiu arrange it for him? And Song Jin still knows! But Song Jin''s reaction was wrong and she said that she would help him find famous doctors. Either Song Jin knew that he would die of illness; or he was deliberately trying to confuse him. Does this mean that there is really someone behind the two sisters? Or are you sure he will die? Qin Chi held the book tightly. No matter how much Qin Chi guessed, he would never have thought that the two sisters were reborn. As for the issue of Qin Mingsong''s extramarital affair, Qin Chi neglected it, thinking that Qin Mingsong had already raised her, and the woman was pregnant, and they were twins who would be born in the next year. However, his people were not found out, but Song Jin received the news first. Is the person behind this person very powerful? He was able to avoid contacting Song Jin from his many eyes and ears. You know, Qin Chi thought he had Song Jin''s whereabouts, but now he suddenly discovered that there were loopholes? Qin Chi was in a particularly complicated mood at the moment. I just felt a slight sting in my chest. There is sadness and there is disappointment. That day, Lao Qin''s house was lively and there were several tables set up, but there was no trouble. Song Jin almost stayed in the house and did not go out, mainly because Aunt Qin''s husband''s greasy eyes disgusted her. However, the family had an accident on the way home that day. Both couples broke their legs. After hearing the news, Song Jin ate half a bowl of rice. But Song Jin discovered it. After that day, Qin Chi seemed to be very busy. He was not seen for several days. Later, he showed his face occasionally, and his attitude towards her became colder, unlike before. Song Jin felt disappointed, but not much. From the day she married Qin Chi, she regarded him as a dead person. Even if we have been together for several months, we will occasionally be touched, but the frequency is not too many and it is not profound, and it will disappear soon, so we can regain our composure and self-control. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The family has not been found, the blood feud has not been avenged, and the enemy is still at large. How could she, Song Jin, indulge in the love between her children? Therefore, Song Jin didn''t take Qin Chi''s alienation seriously. Instead, Qin Chi''s absence gave her more personal time to start planning. On the roadside from Qinjiagou to Xiangji, a relatively flat wasteland not far away was purchased and surrounded by a high wall. People passing by can''t see clearly what''s going on inside. In fact, Xing Lun secretly asked people to build a medicine shop here. The medicine shop was built here because Song Jin was expected to stay in Qinjiagou for the next two to three years. One is that the child will not be born until next year. The baby was still young, so Song Jin could not ignore it. Whats more, this place is close to Huangshan Mountain, and most people go to the mountain to collect herbs, making it more convenient to purchase. Qin Chi receives reports every day, so he knows exactly what Song Jin did and who he contacted. But no matter how much they investigated, they couldn''t find any flaws. At the same time, Qin Chi clearly felt again that in Song Jin''s heart, his husband-in-law''s weight was limited. "What a heartless little lady..." Qin Chi was so angry that he was about to have a myocardial infarction, but the expression on his face only became more and more indifferent, "Uncle Tao, has my brother-in-law found out?" "Sir, we haven''t found it yet." Shopkeeper Tao also found it incredible, "We have been monitoring for so many days, but we haven''t found the outer room. On the contrary, our people found it..." Qin Mingsong and Bai Cuiwei exchanged letters privately. Letters were sent quite covertly. For example, when Qin Mingsong goes to the academy library to borrow books, he will hide the letters in a certain book, and then Bai Cuiwei will appear and borrow the book, etc. Bai Cuiwei''s letter to him later was sent out in the same way. The person who monitored Qin Mingsong only found this out in the end, and was quite speechless. Nowadays, those who teach and receive privately are even more sneaky than spies like them. Shopkeeper Tao added: "We bribed the servants around Bai Cuiwei and ruled out the possibility of Bai Cuiwei being pregnant." "So it''s not her in the outer room?" Qin Chi was now checking again and again, and found that the front was like a fog. The more he checked, the more confused he became. "Master, do you want to check again?" Shopkeeper Tao asked tentatively. Qin Chi asked back: "Can we find out his outer chamber?" "It has been checked three times and it will be the same again. Could it be that he doesn''t have an outer room at all?" Shopkeeper Tao didn''t even know where his master got the news from, and after repeated investigations, he seemed to be sure that Qin Mingsong had raised the foreign wife, and that the foreign wife was pregnant. Qin Chi was silent. No? Chapter 73 What day is it today? Chapter 73 What day does it begin today? "No need to send people to keep an eye on it." Qin Chi knew that if he continued to investigate, nothing would be found. After a pause, he asked again, "Is my uncle''s sweetheart the Bai Cuiwei?" "Exactly." Shopkeeper Tao remembered that he had tricked Qin Mingsong last time. That is to say, the news of Qin Mingsong''s marriage was secretly passed to Bai Cuiwei. "I remember that after the spy found out that Bai Cuiwei had received the news, she cried quite sadly and ran to question Qin Mingsong..." Qin Mingsong said it was his parents'' order. He said that he could only bear her in this life, and that he was destined to have no fate. Later, he wrote another poem, which was full of affection, deep and unrepentant. Played hard to get. Bai Cuiwei took the initiative to forgive Qin Mingsong. Qin Chi just wanted to say that this woman was willing to fall for herself. Now that she knew Qin Mingsong had a wife, she still contacted her privately, "If you have a daughter in the future, you must teach her well." "It''s not the woman''s fault, it''s the young master''s brother-in-law who is very clever." Shopkeeper Tao sympathized with Bai Cuiwei and said as if he had deep feelings, "It''s a pity, it''s a pity, women are most easily trapped by love, and they will not hesitate to fly moths into the flames for love." "What show has Uncle Tao watched recently?" "There''s a new drama in the Liyuan. An infatuated woman betrays her husband." As soon as Shopkeeper Tao said these words, he was immediately speechless. When he has free time, he will go to the theater, but can he say this? Qin Chi looked disapproving. If women in this world are so easily trapped by love, why is the man at home so cold-hearted to him? This almost makes him look like a dead person. Wait for shopkeeper Tao to leave. Only then did Qin Yi show up, "Master, there is no problem with Song Xiu." He is just an ordinary person, nothing suspicious really happened. Qin Chi glanced indifferently. How could there be no problem? Song Xiu is not a person who knows how to hide his emotions, and he is far different from Song Jin. Qin Chi deliberately walked past Song Xiu. Song Xiu''s look of pity and malice was almost written on his face. He even used all the manpower in Yixian County, but no problem was found. For this reason, Qin Chi even suspected that there was a spy around him. He conducted a thorough internal investigation, which made people panic, but the result was still... Everything is business as usual! We clearly know there is a problem, but we cant find out the cause! Qin Chi''s whole body has been exuding air-conditioning lately. Only Shopkeeper Tao dared to talk to him normally. The others stayed far away and didn''t dare to show up. "What day does it fall today?" Qin Chi''s voice was cold and filled with evil spirits. Qin Yi lowered his head and replied: "Reporting to the young master, it''s the fifth day of the lunar month." "The fifth day of the lunar month...the fifth day of the 10th lunar month." Qin Chi flicked his sleeves, stood up slowly, and looked at the boundless sky outside the door, "I will go back to Qinjiagou to stay for a few days. You go and inform Uncle Tao. You don''t need to inform me about anything insignificant." Qin Yi responded and stepped back. At noon, the sun is shining brightly. Qin Chi took a mule cart and returned to Qinjiagou in a low-key manner. The strong laborers of the Qin family went to the fields in broad daylight, and Xiao Liu, Lin, and Qin Da Ya all went up the mountain. Mrs. Liu takes care of her children at home. Song Xiu was washing clothes and looked up to see Qin Chi coming back. The children at home rushed over and surrounded Qin Chi. Qin Chi was also good-tempered and shared the snacks he brought back with his children, enjoying themselves happily. Song Xiu squinted and curled his lips. He just knows how to win people''s hearts with small favors. "So what if I try to win people''s hearts again? I''m almost dead..." Song Xiu was counting the days during this period, and would go to Song Jin from time to time to make his presence felt. Wait for Song Xiu to come to his senses. Suddenly, he saw a pair of black men''s cloth shoes appearing in front of him. Looking up along the upper of the shoe, Song Xiu saw Qin Chi approaching her at some point and looking down at her. Especially since he seemed to have a slight smile on his face, but his eyes were as cold as a knife. "What were you mumbling about just now?" Qin Chi asked coolly. Song Xiu was so shocked that the clothes in her hands fell into the basin, "No, nothing?" After saying this, Song Xiu was so frightened that she ran back to the house. Qin Chi''s eyes became more and more dangerous. What if this kind of reaction is okay? No fool would believe it. "Hey, little aunt, what are you doing?" Shiro happened to see this scene and asked with a confused face. Qin Chi calmed down the breath on his body, turned around and replied with a smile: "Maybe he ran away because he didn''t have any candy." "Yeah, that''s right." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Shiro said seriously, "Brother, if Wulang and Erya have candy to eat, I will also cry if I don''t have candy to eat." "hehe." Qin Chi laughed out loud when he heard this, stretched out his big knuckled hand, and rubbed Shiro''s little head, "Go and play, I''m going to find your aunt." Shiro nodded obediently. Qin Chi first went to see Li in the big house. After sitting for a while and chatting for a few words, he went back to his room. At this time, Song Jin should have gone to the medicine shop. It was still the previous story that he was working in a drug store, and the Qin family had no doubts. Qin Chi looked around the room. The room was not big, and it was almost clear at a glance. There were not many places to hide things. Qin Chi searched for it and finally landed on Song Jin''s cage. Isn''t it ungentlemanly to check your wife''s trunk? The cage is padlocked. But this kind of lock can''t stop Qin Chi. Qin Chi inserted a wire into the keyhole, stirred it a few times, and easily opened Song Jin''s cage. There are only Song brocade clothes, all of which are commonly worn by ordinary people. There is no silk and satin. There are a few cotton underwear stacked underneath the clothes. The couple had done all the most intimate things, so Qin Chi didn''t blush or breath when he turned over. Until you find a Luban box at the bottom. Qin Chi has seen this box before. It was stolen by Song Xiu at first, but later found again. Qin Chi was wondering how to open the Luban box. Qin Chi has never been exposed to this type of box. Wealthy people find craftsmen to customize them. How to open them is usually only known by the craftsman and the buyer. Suddenly, I heard movement in the yard. I vaguely heard Shiro calling sister-in-law. Is this Song Jin coming back? Song Jin is indeed back in the yard. Erya blinked her big round eyes, "Sister-in-law, you smell good? What does it smell like?" "Idiot, it smells like medicinal herbs." Shiro answered for Song Jin. Wulang laughed happily, "Is it delicious?" "Bitter and not delicious." The three little kids started chatting among themselves. Song Jin went to the kitchen to get some water to wash his hands. He saw half-washed clothes in the yard and just threw them in the yard. He asked, "Silang Wulang, who did the laundry today?" "Wo Zhi, it''s my little aunt." Shiro raised his little head and replied seriously, "My little aunt has no candy to eat, so she went back to her room and cried." "It''s because the eldest brother didn''t give it to her." Wulang added in a sweet voice. Song Jin was stunned after hearing this. Children''s words cannot be taken seriously. But one thing, Song Jin heard, was that Qin Chi was back today. It was getting closer and closer to the ninth day of October, and Song Jin was a little anxious. She wanted to go to Qin Chi, so that she could help if she encountered any problems. The truth is that she takes it too much for granted. Nowadays, Qin Chi is nowhere to be seen, and he never spends the night when he comes back. He has almost no communication with Song Jin. Chapter 74 The worst possible outcome is peace and separation. Chapter 74 The big deal is reconciliation Song Jin pushed open the door. Qin Chi was sitting in a chair, holding a book in his hand and reading it with a leisurely attitude. "Ms. sir." Song Jinfang walked in lightly, then turned around and closed the door, "When did your husband come back?" "I just got back not long ago." Qin Chi raised his eyes and looked at Song Jin unabashedly, and then down to her swollen belly, "It doesn''t have to be so hard. If you have something to do, just leave it to others and let others do it. You don''t have to spend money to treat them." "Yeah, I know." Song Jin walked to the six-legged washbasin stand. He took out the facekerchief, wet it, wiped his face, and hung it up to dry. When Qin Chi looked at Song Jin. Song Jin was actually also secretly sizing up Qin Chi. First of all, Qin Chi''s expression was not much different from usual, and he didn''t look like he was seriously ill. But today is the fifth day of October, and there are still four days left. "Have you heard anything outside, Madam?" Qin Chi asked casually. Song Jin was in a daze, "It''s nothing. I''ve been staying in the medicine shop and haven''t had much contact with outsiders, but I did hear that someone had an insect disease." "Pest disease?" Qin Chi was shocked. This can kill people and may be contagious. Song Jin did not know how to cure diseases, but he knew how to treat diseases. Earlier, Xing Lun was asked to purchase neem bark, pumpkin seeds, aphrodisiac, etc., and the warehouse already had a lot of them. These medicinal materials are used to treat insect diseases. In the past life, there was a place where many people were infected with insect diseases. The prices of these medicinal materials are rising steadily. Later, some drug dealers raised the price more than ten times and made a lot of money. Song Jin was also a businessman. It is impossible not to make money without making money. Instead of selling it for more than ten times the price, she can sell it for half the price of others. Qin Chi chatted with Song Jin for a few more words and then hurried out. Song Jin speculated that it might be related to insect disease. Song Jin, who had just sat down and was about to pour a glass of water, accidentally glanced at his own cage, and his eyes suddenly froze. Song Jin got up and walked over. Someone had touched her box? Who is it? Song Jin took out the key from his sleeve pocket, unlocked the box, opened the lid and looked inside. The clothes looked the same as those she had laid out. In fact, it is still different. Song Jin has a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder and has to put things neatly. Now the clothes are stacked and look the same, but you can still tell that someone has moved them. Now it can be confirmed! Someone had indeed entered the house and quietly touched her things. Song Jin turned to the bottom of the box. When he saw that the Luban box was still there, Song Jin breathed a sigh of relief. Pick up the box and check that it has not been opened. This is all her belongings. If she loses it, she will be a pauper. The most important thing is that she puts all the important things in it. Song Jin quickly opened the box and checked it. When you see that everything inside is there, you feel completely relieved. Song Jin didn''t know that someone outside the window was watching her open the Luban box and wrote down the steps one by one. Maybe it was Qin Chi''s plan to let her find out that the cage was opened. Song Jin hesitated for a long time and put the box back in its place again. Even though he knew it was not safe here, Song Jin still let him go. Normally, this box has been opened by someone, and if it can be opened once, it can be opened a second time. However, Song Jin thought that the safest place in the whole house was this box. Because it had been opened and searched. If that person comes again, he will ignore the box. Qin Chi, who was standing outside the window, was in a complicated mood. He is a woman who always surprises people. Even if he didn''t check the contents of Luban''s box, he was still very sure that the contents of the box should be valuable. Isn''t she afraid of losing it? Song Jin locked the box. Standing up, she looked around and saw that the window was ajar, so she walked over and pushed it open, looking outside, but saw no one. There are people at home during the day. The windows will not be closed and will allow ventilation. Song Jin checked the edge of the window and found no traces such as footprints. Instead, there were footprints outside the window, and they belonged to adults. This made Song Jin''s heart skip a beat. The figure came in through the window. It doesnt look like it? Except for the footprints on the ground outside the window, there were no traces left inside the house. Not far away, somewhere Song Jin couldn''t see. Qin Yi spoke, "Sir, Madam is very cautious." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "You are indeed smart. It won''t take long for her to suspect me." Qin Chi made a temporary decision to do this kind of thing. After searching for so many days, there are no clues. Simply try to alert the enemy. It''s not that I haven''t thought about using this trick on Song Xiu, but according to Qin Chi''s understanding, Song Xiu''s brain is not very good. Unless you turn her house upside down and you can tell at a glance that a thief has entered, no matter how much time Song Xiu is given, she won''t find out that the house has been searched. In fact, Qin Chi had arranged for people to search Song Xiu''s house more than once. No problem found either. After Song Jin closed the doors and windows, he began to carefully check the things in the house. Just like when she went out. "Do people come in and aim at my cage?" Finally, Song Jin picked up the book that Qin Chi had put down, and then reached out to touch the chair where Qin Chi was sitting just now. She felt a slight chill and her heart sank. What does Qin Chi want to do? He wouldn''t have touched her things before. Nothing was missing from the house. Song Jin''s things haven''t been lost, so we can rule out thieves who are looking for money. Are there any thieves in this country who are not looking for money? This was obviously done by her own family. Qin Chi, who had not been home for a long time, came back and wanted to check her cage? Think again of the recent changes in Qin Chi''s attitude. Song Jin frowned slightly. What seemed to be happening, or was it something she didn''t know about? Song Jin recalled the past few days. One after another, she did nothing out of the ordinary. "Brother, you are back today. Have you had lunch?" Qin Erlang and Sanlang came back from private school and were very surprised to see Qin Chi at the door. Song Jin heard the movement in the yard. Not only did the two children come back from private school, but Old Man Qin and others also came home from the fields. Mrs. Liu prepared lunch. On the contrary, the people who went up the mountain have not returned yet. Song Jin didn''t stay in the house for long and pretended not to know anything. When she came out of the house, she saw Qin Chi talking patiently to Erlang and Sanlang in the yard. That look was familiar to her. Only his attitude towards her changed. wrong! She''s not the only one. So is Song embroidery. Song Jin had this suspicion, so he paid more attention to Song Xiu, and sure enough he saw that Song Xiu was avoiding Qin Chi. This suddenly made Song Jin think of a possibility. Could it be that Qin Chi knew their origins? The daughter of a criminal? ! Let him unknowingly marry a woman with a criminal background. As a scholar, it is normal for him to be disgusted. And because she was pregnant with his child. He couldn''t do anything to her for the moment, so he could only treat her indifferently, which could also explain his sudden alienation. Thinking of this, Song Jin sighed in his heart. "Daughter-in-law, what are you doing standing there? You haven''t come in to eat yet." Mrs. Li said to the absent-minded Song Jin. Song Jin raised her eyes and smiled slightly, "Okay, I''ll come right away." What''s there to worry about? The soldiers came to cover up the water and earth. The worst thing is reconciliation, but it doesn''t mean that you can''t live without reconciliation. Chapter 75 Madam may just care about you Chapter 75 Madam may just care about you Qin Chi didn''t know that his momentary caution caused Song Jin to misunderstand. He suspected that there was someone behind the two sisters, probably targeting him and Mr. Li. Song Jin misunderstood that he knew the origins of her and Song Xiu, so he searched her box and alienated her. Song Jin understood Qin Chi''s approach, but she felt cold-hearted and her favorable impression of Qin Chi was greatly reduced. However, people are dying. Everyone in the world is somewhat tolerant towards those who are about to die, and Song Jin is no exception. After lunch, Song Jin asked Qin Chi if he would be at home today, and then went to the medicine shop again. Qin Chi thought that Song Jin was inquiring about his whereabouts and was preparing to do something. With this idea in mind, he opened his wife''s Luban box again. It''s a pity that he checked it several times. There were only a few ingots of silver and jewelry, IOUs, household registrations, marriage certificates, etc., and nothing else suspicious. Its really flawless "Da Lang, Doctor Jing is here!" Old Mrs. Liu knocked on the door and called. Qin Chi packed up his things, locked the box, and then opened the door. Standing at the door were old Mrs. Liu and Dr. Jing. Behind Dr. Jing was a little medicine boy carrying a medicine box. When Mr. Liu left, the medicine boy stayed outside the door. Doctor Jing followed Qin Chi into the house carrying the medicine box. Wait until there are no more outsiders. Qin Chi asked in confusion: "Why is Mr. Jing here?" "Madam, please ask me to take your pulse." Doctor Jing smiled kindly and said, "Sir, Madam is also concerned about your health." Qin Chi sat down, and Doctor Jing sat next to him and asked Qin Chi to stretch out his wrist. He began to carefully check Qin Chi''s pulse. "Do you have anything else to tell me, madam?" Qin Chi asked casually. Doctor Jing didn''t know why, "Does it count to ask me to check the young master''s pulse every day for the next five days?" Qin Chi''s heart was touched, "What else?" "Give me another hundred taels?" Under Qin Chi''s oppressive gaze, Doctor Jing shook his head insistently, "No, no, just ask me to give you a safe pulse. I''ll do it for five days." Twenty taels at a time, Madam is very generous. The ice cold in Qin Chi''s heart was gradually melting away. It''s just that he didn''t realize it himself. After taking his pulse, Dr. Jing resisted Qin Chi''s pressure and prescribed him a prescription to clear his liver fire, "Sir, you have been very angry recently. Take some medicine to calm it down." "roll!" Qin Chi chased people away. Doctor Jing goes out. Then I went to check the Ping''an pulse on Mr. Li. Qin Chi had to say that he was confused, "Qin Yi, what do you think she meant by this move?" "Maybe Madam just cares about you." Qin Yi''s answer was ambiguous. Qin Chi looked at Qin Yi with threatening eyes. Qin Yi gritted his teeth and said: "Doctor Jing is one of ours and will not cover up anything for Madam. Madam asked him to take your pulse, isn''t it because she cares about your health?" Please have peace of mind for five consecutive days. This behavior doesn''t look like it''s harming anyone. Qin Chi murmured again: "Who do you think the Song sisters are?" "Sir, I''m just a secret guard." Qin Yi felt very miserable inside. He is not a spy and is not good at investigating. According to Qin Yi''s observation. The personalities of the Song sisters are completely different. One is not very bright and only thinks about how to win over men every day; the other is focused on business development, dealing with medicinal materials all day long, and mentions his master only a handful of times. Most of the time, the lady is treated as if the young master does not exist. But can this be said? Qin Yi didn''t want to lie but didn''t dare to tell the truth. Qin Chi suddenly stood up. Slowly go to the backyard and hitch the carriage. Driving out of the village, I met an uncle from the clan on the road. Someone asked: "Where is Dalang going?" "Go pick my wife up from work." Qin Chi responded with a smile. When the man heard this, he burst into laughter and said, "He loves his wife." "Of course my wife wants to be cared for at home." Qin Chi said with a smile, "Uncle, are you going home?" "Back from the fields." As soon as the man finished speaking, his mother-in-law asked with a flattering smile: "Da Lang! Are you still inviting people to your wife''s place?" "I''ll ask my wife when I go to pick her up. If I really want to invite someone, I''ll let my aunt know. But I probably won''t invite you. My second aunt catches my wife asking about her every day." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! This sounds nice to say. But it''s equivalent to rejection. The aunt wasn''t disappointed either, she just asked casually. Qin Chi drove over and waved goodbye, which was considered a saving grace. The secret guards following behind looked at each other. "Master, are you in a good mood?" one of them asked. Another said, "Probably so." During this period, Qin Chi had a cold face every day and dealt with some people who made mistakes. His methods were so cruel that even they shuddered. Qin Yi hides his merit and fame deeply. On an October day, the young master''s face can be as cold as cold. In the pharmacy. Song Jin finished the work at hand. People sit in the tea room. The weather has turned cooler, and there is a charcoal fire in the tea room, which is much warmer. A little girl was waiting nearby, pouring a glass of warm water for Song Jin. The little girl is Lou Ruhan''s sister, named Xiaoyu, and her real name is Lou Qianyu. Lou Ruhan is now working beside Xing Lun. Xiaoyu followed Yinlong to the new medicine shop. Now is the busiest time for the entire pharmacy. There are a lot of newly collected medicinal materials. There are two masters in the county town who are in charge of this new pharmacy. The Yinlong couple are in charge of this new pharmacy. Send ordinary medicinal materials to the county town. Those who need to use the Song family''s processing methods are sent to the new medicine shop. Song Jinlai takes the lead during the processing, and Yinlong and his wife serve as assistants to complete the processing together. The batch of medicinal materials that has just been completed is of very good quality. Shopkeeper Tao arranged for people to come over to collect the medicinal materials, and they were very satisfied after each inspection. Shun An just took away the medicinal materials today. The sound of a carriage came again outside. Song Jin thought that the people from Shun''an hadn''t left yet, but Xiaoyu hurried over to report, "My boss, someone said he was your husband-in-law and came to pick you up from work." Hearing this, Song Jin was stunned. He got up and walked outside, and he saw Qin Chi led in by Yinlong and heading towards the tea room. When Yinlong saw Song Jin, he smiled and retreated, taking Xiaoyu with him when he left. Qin Chiwen smiled and said, "Madam, are you done with your work?" This familiar smile... Song Jin couldn''t help but be stunned. In the county town before, she went to the drug store every day and would often run into Qin Chi when she came home. Every time he looked at her, he would show such a gentle smile. A very warm smile, like the warm sun in winter. But since he was pregnant with a child, this smile has almost disappeared. When he looked at her, his eyes were distant and indifferent. This moment seemed to come back? Song Jin looked directly at Qin Chi''s questioning eyes, and then nodded, "I''m done with everything today." "Then let''s go home together?" Qin Chi stretched out his hand towards Song Jin. Song Jin smiled, but did not put her hand in his palm, and instead walked to the tea room, "I want to get something else." In fact, there is nothing to take. I just avoided his hand and made any excuse. Chapter 76 Qin Chi’s death anniversary Chapter 76 Qin Chis Death Anniversary Song Jin got into the carriage, still looking a little dazed. Qin Chi acted as the driver. Neither of them spoke during the whole journey. There was an invisible sense of alienation between the two of them. It''s like I''m back to the stranger I first met, maybe not as good as that time. At least at that time, Song Jin''s alienation from him was not as obvious as it is now. This discovery made Qin Chi panic. But can you blame him? He couldn''t help but think too much about the conversation between her and Song Xiu. Qin Chi wanted to break the alienation, but he couldn''t do it. After taking him home, he still didn''t change until he lay on the same bed that night. Song Jin was very tired during the day. Not only mentally but also physically tired. She really didn''t want to say anything more to Qin Chi, because she discovered as soon as she came in that her box had been tampered with again in the afternoon. Change into new clothes while bathing. Song Jin checked it and found that the Luban box had been moved, but the contents inside were not lost. She didn''t know what Qin Chi was looking for. The most coveted thing of the Song family is the "Song Family Pharmacopoeia". Next three days. Qin Chi wanted to get close to Song Jin. Song Jin would not take the initiative to talk to him, but whenever he spoke, she would respond gently and without being rude. It''s the kind of gentle and polite detachment. Use politeness to keep people away. Song Jin didn''t know what Qin Chi was going to do, so he sent her to the medicine shop for three days in a row, and then personally picked her up home in the afternoon. This made Song Jin not show off on his face, but he became more and more vigilant in his heart. "Madam, Doctor Jing said my health is acceptable." Qin Chi suddenly spoke before going to bed, his voice clear and confused, "I heard that my wife spent a hundred taels to ask Doctor Jing to take my pulse for five days. Why? I really want to know the reason." Do your best and obey destiny. What other reasons could there be? Song Jin only felt that it was better to be a couple than anything else. Knowing that something would happen to him, I couldn''t do nothing. Qin Chi waited for a long time without waiting for Song Jin''s answer. Then he looked sideways at the person beside the pillow under the weak light and found that her breathing was shallow and even. Actually fell asleep! A mouthful of blood clogged Qin Chi''s chest. He couldn''t hold his breath, he couldn''t get up or down. But you can only bear it! The next day, morning. On the ninth day of October, the weather was slightly cold. "Doctor Jing, come in quickly, my husband seems to be sick!" Song Jin anxiously guarded the courtyard gate. As soon as he saw Dr. Jing coming over, he took him to see Qin Chi. When Doctor Jing heard that Qin Chi was sick, it was okay, so he quickly walked into the house. In the fourth room, Song Xiu looked over at Song Jin''s anxious look, her eyes concealing the excitement. Song Xiu got up early just to watch the show. Qin Chi died of illness in the county town in his previous life, but he was at home in this life. Seeing that Qin Chi was in good spirits and showed no signs of illness, Song Xiu was confused as to why it was different. Didn''t you expect to be really sick today? Song Xiu didn''t dare to get in front of Song Jin now. Who knows if Song Jin will go crazy? She still had the leverage in Song Jin''s hands, but Song Jin would do anything if he was so angry. The secret guards were ordered to keep an eye on Song Xiu today. The excitement on this woman''s face was about to overflow, and the level of suspicion continued to increase. I really dont blame the master for being suspicious! After waiting for a long time, there was no movement from Song Xiu until the medicine boy came out with some medicine. During the process of decoction, the medicine boy did not leave. The secret guard thought that Song Xiu would make some move, and if he wanted to kill Qin Chi, poisoning would be one way to do it, but Song Xiu couldn''t even leave the house, let alone plot against Qin Chi. Someone was also watching Song Jin. There was also no movement! Both contradictory and suspicious. It can be said to be the most difficult mystery for the secret guards to solve after living for so long. Unlike Shopkeeper Tao, Lao Huo and others, the secret guards knew very well what was going on around Qin Chi. For example, Qin Chi recently suspected the Song sisters and investigated them over and over again. He knew that the two of them were suspicious. Unable to grasp the handle. inside the house. The charcoal in the brazier is burning brightly. Qin Chi was lying on the bed, looking helpless. When he woke up, he felt dizzy and had a sore throat. Song Jin wet the handkerchief with warm water and carefully wiped Qin Chi''s face. When he opened his eyes, his narrow and beautiful eyes were misty and he asked in a hoarse voice: "What''s wrong with me?" "Doctor Jing came to see you and said that my husband has caught wind and cold. You should rest more in the next few days and don''t get tired." Song Jin recalled Doctor Jing''s words. He also said that people have a heavy heart and should relax their mind. Song Jin didn''t say this when he said it. Qin Chi''s eyes flashed slightly, "Am I seriously ill?" "It''s not serious, just take care of it and it will get better." It is precisely because of this that Song Jin is very strange. Doctor Jing said Qin Chi''s illness was just a symptom of wind and cold. How did you die of illness in your previous life? Doctor Jing was in the main room, being entertained by the Qin family. Everyone was asking about Qin Chi''s condition. Knowing that it was just the occasional cold, I felt relieved, and enthusiastically asked Dr. Jing to stay for dinner, so there was no need to rush back. Its really hard to refuse such kindness. So it was logical for Dr. Jing to stay. The medicine in the kitchen was cooked, and a bowl of dark concoction was served. It was Boss Qin who brought it into the house personally. Song Jin moved away from the bed and did not touch the bowl of medicine. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Whatever the reason, or just a matter of intuition. Song Jin doesn''t touch anything in Qin Chi''s entrance these days. "Dalang, drink it quickly." Boss Qin urged his son. Qin Chi held the medicine bowl and asked, "Dad, how is mom?" "I''m worried about you." "Let Dr. Jing take mother''s pulse." "I''ve had my pulse checked these past few days and it''s fine. It''s you who''s in trouble now. Why are you worried? No wonder Doctor Jing said you were overthinking and made yourself sick." Boss Qin will not care about Qin Chi''s face, and will criticize him whenever he has something in mind. Qin Chi felt embarrassed. He prides himself on growing up, but he still has to obey his father''s lectures in front of his wife. It''s up to you to decide how he feels. After swallowing the medicine, he asked Boss Qin to take the bowl out. Qin Chi breathed a sigh of relief. Then he saw Song Jin standing guard next to him. "I''m infected with the cold. Madam, I don''t have to wait on you, lest you also catch it." When Qin Chi spoke, his eyes fell on Song Jin''s belly. Song Jin understood. However, today is the ninth day of October... In the end, it was Qin Chi who insisted that Song Jin leave the room. After Song Jin left and closed the door, Qin Yi jumped in from the window. "Sir, this..." "Speak up if you have anything to say." Qin Chi''s illness was not a simple one. He deliberately arranged it to give the people behind the scenes a chance to take action. But Qin Chi didn''t know it at this time. The person he thought was behind the scenes didn''t actually exist. Doomed to be busy in vain. Qin Yi told the truth: "Song Xiu never made any suspicious moves. He stayed in the house except for breakfast, but he was in a good mood..." Qin Chi sneered. You wish he was dead, right? "Where''s Madam?" "When Madam learned that you were sick, she anxiously arranged for someone to pick up Dr. Jing. She even went to the hospital gate to wait for someone. As soon as Dr. Jing arrived, he pulled someone over to see you..." Qin Yi reported very carefully. Show every move of Song Jin. Qin Chi didn''t know whether he should be happy or depressed at this time. Is this the result again? But this is the final test. If there is no problem today. As for the conversation between the two sisters last time, it is possible that the secret guard did not listen to the whole conversation and misunderstood what they meant. Tuk tuk tuk There were knocks on the window, three long and two short. It was a signal from the secret guard that something was urgent. Qin Yi went over to open the window and saw a secret letter handed in by someone outside, "Young Master has something urgent." "Bring it to me and see." Qin Chi stood up from his seat and took the secret letter to read. A very small piece of paper, but densely written with small characters. After reading it, throw it into the brazier and burn it. Qin Chi ordered: "I''m going out in two quarters of an hour. You arrange a carriage to pick me up." "I obey my orders." Qin Yi went out from the window. The window was closed again outside. Just when everyone thought Qin Chi would stay at home to rest, a carriage came outside, saying that the academy had something to do and asked Qin Chi to come over. Qin Chi wants to go out because of illness. Of course, I also brought Doctor Jing with me. Song Jin stood in front of the courtyard gate and watched Qin Chi get into the car. The moment you enter the car. Qin Chi turned around unexpectedly and glanced at Song Jin with a deep look in his eyes. Song Jin smiled back. (End of chapter) Chapter 77 Cause and effect between two lives Chapter 77 Cause and effect in two lives The carriage went further and further away. Song Jin was in a daze. "Daughter-in-law, what are you still doing? Come in quickly." Mrs. Liu was surprisingly kind to Song Jin. The most important thing was that her niece-in-law was so generous. Song Jin nodded with a smile and turned to walk into the house. Song Xiu stood in front of Song Jin''s house at some point and asked, "Sister, are you feeling sad?" "What do you want to do again?" Song Jin looked at Song Xiu coldly. Song Xiu pursed her lips and smiled happily, "I''ve been waiting for today since the day we changed our marriage." "Really? Then I will send your IOU to Chunguiyuan, the largest brothel in Yixian County tomorrow. Are you satisfied?" Song Jin''s expression was cold and cold, with malice rarely seen in Song Xiu. "You''re crazy! I''m a scholar now!" Song Xiu screamed. It instantly attracted the rest of the Qin family. "What''s wrong?" "What the **** is Auntie screaming about?" "Why is the fourth daughter-in-law so scared that she screams?" Someone looked over and saw that the sisters were arguing again. Boss Qin and others, who had long been used to it, knew how to avoid it, but the same could not be said for little Liu. Those gossipy eyes want to stare at this side. Song Xiu''s lost reason suddenly returned. Seeing Song Jin''s non-joking look again, Song Xiu wondered if Qin Chi''s death had spurred her on, "I''ll pay you back later!" "Then it''s up to me to agree or not." "I don''t care whether you agree or not, I gave you money, and you have to pay me back the IOU!" Song Xiu didn''t want to write the IOU at all. He was coerced by Song Jin to write it. He got carried away and provoked Song Jin. Now Song Xiu regrets it to death! If I had known earlier I wouldn''t have come. Song Xiu returned to the house and quickly took out a thousand taels of silver notes. When Song Xiu came out of the Song family, she had the banknotes hidden on her body, but she never told Song Jin about this. "Pop!" "Open the door! Song Jin, open the door for me!" Song Xiu knocked on the door outside. Song Jin knew what she was going to do and took out the IOU. Song Xiu quickly gave Song Jin a thousand taels of silver notes and then snatched the IOU from Song Jin''s hand. Checked and no problem. It was torn into pieces immediately! "Humph, without this, how will you threaten me in the future?" Song Xiu was arrogant again. Under Song Jin''s cold eyes, Song Xiu returned to her room with a chill running down her spine. After being reborn, Song Xiu contracted many bad habits, being stupid, selfish and timid. Putting aside the blood relationship, this is Song Jin''s evaluation of Song embroidery in this generation. Song Jin hated Song Xiu. But as long as Song Xiu doesn''t cross Song Jin''s bottom line, Song Jin won''t deal with her. Otherwise, wouldnt it be helping Qin Mingsong? Is she, Song Jin, the kind of person who does good things? Song Xiu is the thorn between Qin Mingsong and Bai Cuiwei, the existence that disgusts Qin Mingsong and Bai Yueguang. In the previous life, Song Jin was estranged by the two for many years. There must be someone who disgusts her back, right? Based on this alone, Song Jin would not really do anything to Song Xiu. I got one thousand taels from Song Xiu. It happened that Song Jin needed money, and he could do a lot of things with money. Wait until you get back to the house. You can also smell a faint medicinal smell. Song Jin was standing in front of the courtyard gate just now, wanting to tell him not to go. When I saw the coachman who obviously didn''t look like an ordinary person, I immediately remembered that Qin Chi might have as many secrets as hers, and I couldn''t say anything else if I wanted him not to go. Dusk fell slowly like thick ink. The last ray of light on the horizon was swallowed up by dark clouds, and the earth seemed to be shrouded in a faint layer of melancholy. The wind, with a hint of coolness, blew through the treetops, making a low whimper, as if telling silent sorrow. A river near She County. The torches gradually lit up on the riverside, but it was difficult to dispel the pervasive depression. The smell of blood was strong, and the remains of corpses were vaguely visible. It was obvious that a fierce battle had taken place here. There were no less than a hundred casualties. At this time, there were guards cleaning up the mess and burying the bodies on the spot. Others bandaged the injured. In a makeshift tent. There were three circles of guards outside the tent, protecting the tent tightly. The lights in the tent are bright, especially the bed. Qin Chi had an arrow stuck in his shoulder. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Half of the arrow body was gone, but the arrowhead had not been pulled out yet. Qin Chi was unconscious and it was Doctor Jing who gave him the drug. Doctor Jing and Yao Tong are preparing to pull out the arrow. In addition to Doctor Jing, his medicine boy, and the injured Qin Chi, there was also a man in rich clothes in the tent. He is thirty years old and has an innate noble temperament. His face was like a crown jewel, but with a hint of sickly paleness, and his thin figure was like a green bamboo swaying in the wind, elegant and fragile. And a pair of eyes that are deep and melancholy, and seem to contain thousands of stories. Despite years of illness and weakness, he still stands tall and straight, like a green pine in the snow, tough and unyielding. The man was in the tent, but not a word was spoken. He just watched Doctor Jing treating Qin Chi''s injuries with a calm face. It wasn''t until Doctor Jing pulled out the arrow and bandaged the wound that the man shook his body, as if he realized he was tired. A middle-aged scholar dressed as a scholar suddenly appeared behind him. Because of his support, he didn''t fall down. "Your Majesty!" The scholar supported him and comforted him: "Young Master will be fine. Your Majesty, you need to take care of yourself." "Tell me, shouldn''t I be here?" The man known as the Crown Prince coughed violently. The scholar next to him hurriedly comforted him, "Fortunately, the young master brought many people with him this time, so we were able to escape safely. Although the young master blocked an arrow for you, I believe he will not blame you." According to the broken body and bones of the prince. If I get hit by an arrow like this again, I''m afraid it will be difficult again. This sickly and dignified man was none other than Prince Rui''s eldest son, He Lianpu, and Qin Chi''s only living uncle. This time He Lianpu said he would come to Qiyun Mountain, a Taoist holy land, to listen to Taoism. It is not a secret that Prince Pu believed in Taoism in the capital. He even deliberately spread rumors that he wanted to find a Taoist temple in Huangshan Mountain to spend the rest of his life. No troops were mobilized along the way. Stop and go, quite stable. Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the border of Huizhou, he encountered an ambush and suffered heavy casualties. If Qin Chi had not led his people to arrive in time, Helian Pu would have been buried here today. It''s not just him anymore. Qin Chi would be happy if he woke up. If it weren''t for the so-called ninth day of October, which lingered in his mind like a curse, when Qin Chi came to pick up people in disguise, he wouldn''t have brought all the secret guards and manpower with him, including Dr. Jing. Brought it. It is precisely because of Qin Chi''s caution. Let him successfully avoid death in this life. Qin Chi also received the news in his previous life. At that time, he was in the county. In order to cover up others'' deception, it was impossible for him to bring many people to see He Lianpu, let alone Dr. Jing. It was a little late when I went. The people He Lianpu brought with him had been killed, including the accompanying doctors. A pair of uncles and nephews died here. Chapter 78 Prince Helianpu Chapter 78 Prince Helianpu The emperor then issued a gag order. Prince Rui, who was guarding the border, only received the sad news that his son and grandson were dead several months later. Then Li died of illness again. The successive blows caused Prince Rui to vomit blood and fall into a coma, and there was no chance of what happened after that, because he had no chance to wake up after he fell. Qin Chi''s first sentence when he woke up was: "Is it past time?" Lao Huo, who was guarding the edge of the bed, was stunned. This sentence was incomprehensible, but Qin Yi was the first to react, "It''s passed, it''s time now." "Oh, that''s good." After saying this, Qin Chi closed his eyes again. Lao Huo, who was watching the whole process, was confused. Then he looked at Qin Yi''s hidden position. He wanted to ask but didn''t know where to start until dozens of secret guards appeared this time. Lao Huo finally found out. There are actually so many secret guards hidden around the young master. He thought there were only a few before. People like Lao Huo and Lao Li Tou used to be Prince Rui''s confidants. They came here to protect Qin Chi after they were injured and retired from the army. There are many people like them. They all found jobs at Shun''an Trading Company and were assigned to various positions by Qin Chi. "Should we send someone to inform Madam about this?" Lao Huo suddenly raised this question. He was talking to Qin Yi. Qin Yi ignored this silly guy. Lao Huo said in a rough voice: "Hey! Hey! Why don''t you speak? The young master and his wife have a very good relationship. Now that the young master is injured, how can you not tell his wife?" "How can you tell that the young master and his wife have a good relationship?" As a secret guard, Qin Yi followed Qin Chi and could be said to be the person who saw things most clearly. Although the two of them were husband and wife and did everything they were supposed to do, they each had their own secrets to hide. Later, when the wife''s drug store could no longer hide it, they simply revealed the identity of the drug store owner, but they did not mention the Song family. There is still something hidden. Not to mention the young master''s affairs, he has never confessed to his wife. Qin Yi could see that Qin Chi had feelings for his wife, but not much. When it was Song Jin''s turn, he really didn''t see that Song Jin had any feelings for Qin Chi. You only need to look at how other people''s wives treat their husbands, and then look at how the madam treats the young master, to see the difference. On the contrary, Song Xiu''s treatment is more in line with normal situations. Lao Huo didn''t think as much as Qin Yi. "You can see with your eyes. The relationship between the two is as good as honey. In the county town, the young master picks up his wife every day." "Oh? What do you say?" He Lianpu, wearing a fox fur cloak, walked in with great interest. At the beginning of Mao Shi, it was almost dawn. When He Lianpu woke up, he rushed to the tent where Qin Chi was recovering from his injuries. When you came outside, you heard the conversation between Lao Huo and Qin Yi? He Lianpu was not interested in his nephew''s wife, but he was very interested in his nephew''s feelings. Moreover, he heard that she was pregnant and he would become an uncle in a short time. This is one of the few things that makes him happy. "Prince Jin An." Lao Huo quickly stood up and came forward to salute Helian Pu. He Lianpu signaled that he didn''t need to be polite and asked him to talk more about Qin Chi''s affairs in Huizhou. Lao Huo is sorry. You can''t talk about this young master casually. He Lianpu said with a smile: "Just pick some trivial matters, forget about the ones involving confidentiality, I''m not interested in listening to them." "All right." Lao Huo looked back at Qin Chi on the bed. The person woke up for a while just now, but now he fell asleep again. Therefore, Lao Huo picked some trivial matters about Qin Chi that could be easily inquired about. For example, the headmaster of Tachuan Academy wanted Qin Chi to take the scientific examination every year. This year he took part in the county and government examinations and got first place, etc. As he talked, Lao Huo became Qin Chi''s mindless braggart, never forgetting to praise Qin Chi. Qin Yi noticed that Qin Chi on the bed seemed to move slightly. However, he did not wake up. Maybe he was too embarrassed and didn''t want to wake up. There were footsteps outside, and soon Doctor Jing came in. He first saluted He Lianpu, then went to feel Qin Chi''s pulse, check his injuries, and looked around. "Sir, are you awake?" Doctor Jing asked tentatively. After waiting for a while, Qin Chi didn''t wake up, so he couldn''t help but murmured: "That''s not right, the effect of the medicine should have passed by the end of the year." "Ha ha." He Lianpu laughed. Amid laughter, Qin Chi opened his eyes and turned to look at He Lianpu. "Are you my uncle?" "Exactly, I am your uncle He Lianpu." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The two uncles and nephews had been in touch through letters for a long time, but this was the first time they met. They had already seen the portraits. For example, He Lianpu had seen the portraits of Qin Chi from childhood to adulthood. Every year someone will specially send one back to the capital. In order not to be known, He Lianpu usually burned them after reading them. All letters sent from Huizhou were burned immediately after reading them, leaving no trace. The two chatted for a few more words. He Lianpu said regretfully: "It''s a pity that your grandfather and I were unable to attend your wedding, and we didn''t even dare to send decent gifts to Huizhou." "Grandma, I''m thinking of you." Qin Chi felt hot in his heart. This is not a lot of love from my grandfather since I was a child. There were many people and property sent under various names, but Qin Chi acted cautiously and still lived like a farmer. He Lianpu changed the topic, "I received news that your wife is pregnant?" "Yes, five months." Qin Chi wanted to sit up, but Doctor Jing stopped him in time. Doctor Jing warned: "Young master, it''s best to lie down for a few days and stop moving if you can. This will help the wound heal." "Listen to Mr. Jing, don''t move." He Lianpu followed up and said that another entourage brought clear porridge. Qin Chi took it and drank a bowl. Mention Song Jin''s pregnancy again. Doctor Jing waited for Qin Chi to finish the porridge, then touched his beard and said, "When I went to Qinjiagou before, I saw Madam''s bulging belly. It doesn''t look like she should be pregnant for five months." "What''s the meaning?" Qin Chi''s face was solemn and he looked straight at Doctor Jing. So did He Lianpu and others. This statement can easily lead to misunderstanding! But Dr. Jing''s appearance didn''t seem like a bad thing. As expected, Dr. Jing smiled kindly and said, "Everyone is watching what I do. I saw it before and I suspected it might be twins." "really?!" He Lianpu was more excited than Qin Chi. However, his body was suffering from extreme emotional ups and downs. As expected, just after saying this sentence, his face turned two points pale, and then he coughed again. Doctor Jing took the medicated oil and asked him to wipe the Renzhong acupoint. Then it gradually calmed down. Doctor Jing took his pulse and warned: "Your Majesty, don''t do this in the future. You need to try to keep your mind as calm as possible." "My prince knows." Even in the face of death last night, Helian Pu never had any emotional ups and downs. On the contrary, when I heard that my niece-in-law was pregnant with twins, I couldn''t help but feel a little excited. It can only be said that the descendants have always been shrouded in the prince''s palace, and it is still the kind of haze that lingers. Chapter 79 No news Chapter 79 No news Song Jin had an uneasy sleep all night. Half asleep and half awake, I always thought that someone would come to deliver bad news late at night, and I carried this uneasy thought until dawn. When the slightly opened eyes noticed the bright light. The lingering sleepiness immediately disappeared completely. Then he stood up quickly, got dressed and combed his hair, then took the washbasin to the kitchen, where Mrs. Lin was making breakfast. When Mrs. Lin saw Song Jin coming in, she smiled and said, "There is hot water in the pot. Let me go and scoop it out." "Thank you, Third Aunt." Song Jin grabbed the water ladle and poured hot water into the pot. Lin chatted: "Didn''t Dalang come back last night?" "No." Song Jin put down the water ladle. Mrs. Lin added, "I guess it''s too late, so I stayed in the county for one night." "That''s probably it." Song Jin also hoped so in his heart. After returning to the room to wash up, I had breakfast peacefully. When she was about to go out, she met Song Xiu in the yard. Song Xiu had dark circles under her eyes. Apparently he didn''t sleep well all night. Just as she opened her mouth to say something, Song Jin walked directly past her and walked outside. The carriage to pick up Song Jin was already waiting outside. The driver was Xing Lun. "Why are you picking me up today?" Song Jin knew that he was busier than her on weekdays. Xing Lun smiled and said: "I sent the medicinal materials over this morning, and I just happened to pick you up." "That''s hard work." When Song Jin approached the carriage shaft, Xing Lun stretched out an arm towards her. Song Jin held Xing Lun''s arm and got into the car. When the carriage arrived in front of the medicine shop, Song Jin was silent for a long time and finally spoke. "Alun, my husband said he went to Tachuan Academy yesterday morning and didn''t come back all night. You can send someone to the county to inquire quietly. As long as he is well, there is no need to disturb him." "Okay, I''ll make arrangements later." Xing Lun pulled the horse''s reins. Song Jin went to the medicine shop and felt restless while working. Yinlong saw something and simply took over the work in her hands and asked her to sit aside and rest. There are a lot of things going on in the pharmacy today, especially the newly delivered batch of medicinal materials, which need to be processed in time. By the time the inquirer came back, it was already approaching dusk. Xing Lun came over in a hurry and said, "My boss, I went to inquire about Mr. Qin''s whereabouts but I couldn''t find him. I even went to Tachuan Academy to see him and he said he was not in the academy." Song Jin looked solemn and did not say a word. Xing Lun asked: "Do you want to continue asking?" "No need." Song Jin asked Xing Lun to stop inquiring. Qin Chi said he was going to the academy yesterday, but now it seems that it was obviously an excuse. People who have secrets are most afraid of outsiders prying into them. It''s getting late outside. Song Jin asked someone to send him back to Qinjiagou. When returning, Song Jin called Qin Daya and asked, "Did your eldest brother come home today?" "No, sister-in-law misses brother?" Qin Daya asked back with a smile. Song Jin stretched out his hand and poked her forehead lightly, "Brother You was still suffering from the cold yesterday. He went out in a hurry and hasn''t returned home yet. Aren''t you worried?" "My eldest brother is very powerful. What does a little cold mean?" Qin Daya was as big-hearted as her mother. In short, in the hearts of the children in the second room, Qin Chi is omnipotent. Song Jin knew that Qin Chi had not returned, so he did not ask again. But no news can be considered good news. Now Song Jin has been worried about hearing the news of Qin Chi''s death since yesterday. Song Jin lived his life as usual. It just so happens that Qin Chi is often away from home recently, and the Qin family is used to it, only when eating dinner. Mrs. Li asked Song Jin, "Did you tell me when Dalang would be coming home? Yesterday he said he was going to the academy, but no one was around all day. Why didn''t you send a message to your family?" "My husband may not be available." Song Jin simply found a reason. Mrs. Li is very confident about her son, but it is true that she often misses the family. "He has grown stiff and is not happy to have a family. They are already married and he still doesn''t accept it." Song Jin would listen to Li''s complaints, but he would not dare to agree with them. There are some things a mother can say. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! When the daughter-in-law went to talk about it, she got a bad result. Boss Qin gave Li a piece of food with chopsticks and said, "My wife, don''t pay attention to that bastard. He is already married and is about to become a father. We don''t need to worry about it." "Can you not worry about it?" Mrs. Li gave him an angry look. Boss Qin smiled happily. Everyone heard what they said and didn''t interrupt. However, Old Qin, who had just finished eating and put down his bowl and chopsticks, spoke, "I heard that the college exam was coming soon. Someone asked him to go to the academy at this time. It should be related to the college exam." "Is Dalang still taking the college examination?" Qin Laosan was surprised. Qin Laoer praised: "Da Lang wants to bring back a scholar in one breath!" The men in the main room started chatting, and their words were all about the scientific examination. When it came to Qin Chi, they talked about Qin Mingsong''s examination situation that year, and then thought about how in the future, Erlang and the others would also take the examination. Scholars are worthy. Erlang and Sanlang were so frightened that they picked up the rice in two mouthfuls, put down their bowls and chopsticks, and ran away! Afraid of running away too late, my father insists on letting them take the merit examination, which will be a disaster! My family knows their own affairs. They really don''t like reading, so it would be more interesting to learn ink making from their eldest brother. Another one is Li. After putting down the bowls and chopsticks, he left the main room and returned to his room. When it comes to the imperial examination. Li Shi even lost her appetite. In the past, Li did not want Qin Chi to become an official in the court because he was worried that Qin Chi''s identity would be exposed and he would have to face open and covert attacks and violent storms from all sides. Even if his background was not revealed, Li did not want Qin Chi to get stuck in the quagmire. In the final analysis, Mrs. Li was afraid. Her son was born weak and had difficulty raising him. How could he outplay those old foxes in the court? However, Song Jin woke her up again. Qin Chi has been smart since he was a child. He is deeply loved by his husband and his grades in the academy have always been top-notch. However, all the classmates around him have passed the examination as scholar, but he is the only one who is white. How much pressure will you endure in the long run? Will others question his past achievements? Do you think you are hurting Zhongyong? Or they said hurtful words such as "It''s young, so it''s not necessarily better to be older". Lee had never considered these issues before. In the end, the only option was to acquiesce that his son would take part in the imperial examination. After he got the honor, he would be allowed to come back as a teacher and become a peaceful and prosperous idler. This is Li''s greatest expectation for her son. But when she heard that her son was going to take the college entrance examination, Ms. Li still felt frightened. Song Jin watched Li leave and put down the bowl. Everyone in the Qin family thought Qin Chi had gone to the academy, but Song Jin knew that Qin Chi was not at the academy and had not returned to his home in the county. When Song Jin got up to go back to the room. I happened to catch Song Xiu looking excited and a little crazy. When Song Jin looked at her, he immediately grinned. Even uglier and scarier! Song Jin frowned slightly. Isn''t this really crazy? As for that? Just because Qin Chis life and death are unknown? For the next three days, no news came home from Qin Chi. It could even be said that there was no news at all. (End of chapter) Chapter 80 Song Xiu is crazy! Chapter 80 Song Xiu is crazy! Qin Chi didn''t go home for several days. The rest of the Qin family had nothing. At most, they just chattered a few words, saying how Qin Chi behaved more and more without rules, didn''t even say anything to him when he went home, and made his family worry for nothing. Only Song Xiu had a bigger reaction than Song Jin. Song Xiu waited for the news of Qin Chi''s death every day. I''ve been waiting for four days and no one has come to report? Is this person dead or not? He had a pair of big dark circles under his eyes, couldn''t eat well or slept well, and was extremely haggard. He looked a little thinner, and he wasn''t even in the mood to take care of his appearance. From time to time, I would come to the entrance of the courtyard and look towards the entrance of the village. She was particularly excited when a stranger came to the village. When the person didn''t come to Lao Qin''s house, he felt disappointed again. Wait until evening. Song Jin came back from outside and just got off the carriage. Song Xiu, who was sitting next to the entrance of the courtyard, suddenly rushed forward to catch Song Jin. The coachman hurriedly blocked Song Xiu and reminded him, "What are you doing? Madam Song is pregnant. What should you do if you suddenly pounce on her and startle her?" "Get away!" Song Xiu tried to get rid of the driver. The driver insisted on stopping Song Xiu and not letting her get close to Song Jin. Song Jin shouted angrily in a low voice: "Song Xiu! Pay attention and see what you have become? You are a human being and a ghost. You are almost turning yourself into a joke." "Song Jin!" Song Xiu couldn''t care about this now, "That sick man has died a long time ago, right? You have received the news a long time ago, but you hid it from everyone. How brave you are!" "Are you hysterical?" Song Jin looked at Song Xiu critically. Song Jin didn''t know what Song Xiu was thinking these days, but he didn''t expect that she would become so crazy. Song Xiu laughed. Suddenly, she seemed to have an enlightenment, and she felt more and more that she had spied the truth. No wonder Qin Chi should have died long ago. The news of the death has not yet reached Qinjiagou! Song Jin must have managed to hide it! Song Xiu raised her chin and looked at Song Jin proudly. The worse Song Jin''s expression became, the more Song Xiu felt that he had caught Song Jin''s hand. "Can you hide it for a while or for a lifetime? Song Jin, I advise you to accept your fate as soon as possible. You are born to be alone and widowed. Xing Ke''s six relatives." She had such a miserable life in her previous life, she must have been defeated by Song Jin! When Song Xiu thought of this, he retreated far away as if Song Jin was a savage beast. There was so much drama that he ran home! On the contrary, Mrs. Liu poked her head in front of the courtyard door and was shocked to see Song Xiu''s face looking as haggard as a female ghost. "Fourth brother and sister, are you sick? Why are you acting like this?" Xiao Liu said in a loud voice. Others also noticed Song Xiu. Old Mrs. Liu asked with a straight face: "Xiao Mrs. Song, what''s going on with you? Our old Qin family lacks food for you, or do we abuse you? God doesn''t work, but people..." He scolded him right away. Song Xiu was in a good mood for the first time and didn''t even bother with Old Liu. He was even in the mood to smile. But the way she looks now is uglier when she smiles than when she cries. This can scare a lot of people. Young Mrs. Liu quickly came over and pulled Old Mrs. Liu away from Song Xiu, muttering in a low voice: "Mom! Don''t scold me yet. Look at the appearance of the four brothers and sisters. Do they look like they are possessed by evil spirits? Should we go to the old blind man to buy a charm to ward off evil spirits..." "This is so evil, it keeps going day by day." When Old Liu heard this, he thought so. He quickly ran back to the house to get the money, and then ran out to find the old blind man. Mrs. Lin hurriedly pulled several children away from Song Xiu. Song Xiu was happy in her heart, but didn''t notice what others were doing, so she went back to the house happily. Song Jin watched the entire incident and did not stop Old Liu from going out, nor did he mean to clarify for Song Xiu. Song Xiu has been so disgusting these days, she should suffer a little. When Song Jin came to the kitchen. Xiao Liu came close to Song Jin and asked in a low voice: "Dalang''s wife, your sister, what is she..." "well" Song Jin sighed, "I guess I miss my uncle too much." "You said you''re missing love?" Xiao Liu''s eyes widened in shock. Song Jin said quickly, "I just made a guess." "Guess what, it''s probably true. Let me tell you, it''s not good for this woman to be too infatuated. As far as I know, there have been several cases where she went crazy." Xiao Liu shared the gossip she heard with Song Jin. These are all examples of women going crazy. Finally, Mrs. Liu expressed her sympathy for Song Xiu: "It''s quite pitiful that I married my uncle at such a young age and haven''t seen her a few times for half a year. I''d better ask my father-in-law to send a message to my uncle and let him go home. When you see him, let me comfort him, and maybe he will recover." "Maybe so." Song Jin spread rumors about Song Xiu without any psychological burden. In fact, she had not received news of Qin Chi''s death for several days in a row. Song Xiu thought she was covering it up. In fact, she knew about her own affairs. There is indeed no news about Qin Chi. This actually made Song Jin calm down. Again, no news is good news. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! However, Song Jin still decided to go to the county town tomorrow. Song Jin had dinner, washed up, and then went to bed to rest. It is easy for a tired person to fall asleep. On the other side. A rich man''s estate outside the city. Qin Chi is recovering from his injuries there. He Lianpu and his people rested here. Qin Chi had a fever for three days in a row, and it went away on the fourth day. The only thing he was thankful for was that he had a fever and was not confused, and he was still very conscious. He wanted to go back to Yi County these days. Doctor Jing did not allow it, saying that he could not move because of his injuries. It was no longer appropriate to move here earlier. Not only did he have a fever when he arrived here, but the reason was that the wound opened slightly when he moved, which caused the person to develop a high fever. Now his movements are even more restricted. He Lianpu arranged for someone to keep an eye on him and let him lie in bed for half a month before he could get up. Qin Chi was lying on the hospital bed, but he was thinking about Qinjiagou. There is news from Yi County every day. Song Xiu''s reaction was beyond Qin Chi''s expectation, and Song Jin''s reaction made Qin Chi furious. However, people searched for him the next day, but they couldn''t find him... I stopped looking for it! What did she mean? Are you really not worried about his life or death? Lao Huo found that the young master''s temper was as unpredictable as the weather outside. But he also figured out the rules. Every time the young master saw the news from Yi County, he would be in a bad mood. Smart Lao Huo chose to avoid it at this time. Song Jin is being remembered. As soon as I woke up, I packed up and took a carriage to the county seat. The carriage stopped directly in front of Shun''an Bookstore. Song Jin got out of the car wearing a power fence. A woman with a bulging belly is still very eye-catching when she steps into the bookstore. "What does this lady want to buy?" The clerk from the bookstore came up to say hello. Song Jin said bluntly: "I have something to do and want to see Shopkeeper Tao." At this time, Xiao Chu, another waiter next to him, saw Song Jin and stood over on his own initiative, "Madam, the shopkeeper is in the backyard. I will go and inform you right now." Song Jin nodded. At the same time, she was taken to the tea room by Xiao Chu. After a while, Shopkeeper Tao came over in a hurry, "Madam, I wonder what brings you here?" Song Jin said: "I would like to ask you to help inquire about someone." Shopkeeper Tao asked in surprise: "Who do you want to inquire about?" "My husband, I want to know if he is safe." Song Jin directly stated his intention, "You can make a price." Shopkeeper Tao felt strange. Master, this is a sin! He actually didn''t pass any news to Madam, which made Madam worried for nothing. Shopkeeper Tao didn''t dare to accept Song Jin''s money at this time. But can you tell the truth? Shopkeeper Tao could only make up a reasonable excuse at the moment, "I heard that my wife''s husband-in-law went to Huangshan with some classmates and friends a few days ago. This man has gone into the mountains. It is normal for there to be no news for three to five days." It is common for literati and scholars to go to Huangshan Mountain for sightseeing and reciting poems. Song Jin had no doubt about this. Mainly due to trust in Shun''an. After working together for so long, it was still okay. There was no need for Shun An to lie to her on this matter. Therefore, Song Jin left twenty taels of silver notes and left the bookstore. Shopkeeper Tao doesnt want to take money. But wouldnt it be suspicious if he didnt accept it? He immediately wrote a letter and had people rush to send it to Qin Chi... PS: Family members, please vote and give us five-star reviews! ~Wish everyone good luck! Chapter 81 The miserable Song embroidery Chapter 81 The miserable Song Xiu Song Jin went out before dawn. It was already past noon when I returned from the county seat. As soon as he stepped into the gate of Qin''s courtyard, he noticed something was wrong. In the middle of the yard, there was a person basking in the sun. Song Xiu''s eyes were closed, her head drooped, she was tied to a chair in a mess, with hair as messy as a chicken coop, her clothes were messy, and there was something sticky on the front, which you could smell without getting close. A pungent fishy smell. It smells like blood or urine. Anyway, Song Xiu looked extremely miserable at this time. It''s a bit funny at the same time. Because there is a yellow talisman stuck on Song Xiu''s forehead. Glutinous rice and paper money were scattered around the chair, and some dried and blackened blood was on the ground. Xiao Liu sat slumped under the eaves sweating profusely. Qin Daya was also there to help. No one else is here. When Xiao Liu saw Song Jin coming back, she looked behind her and asked Daya to close the courtyard door first, "Is the Dalang''s wife back? It''s unlucky here. You should go back to your room first." "Second aunt, what happened?" Song Jin couldn''t help but ask. "Ask Da Ya." Xiao Liu used Song Jin''s pregnancy as an excuse and urged her to go back to the room first, "Da Ya, take your sister-in-law back to the house quickly to avoid bumping into the unborn child." "Okay, mother." Qin Daya came up quickly to help Song Jin back to the house. Song Jin thought for a while but followed Xiao Liu''s wishes and walked into the house. When passing by the main house. I heard old Mrs. Liu''s cries of pain coming from inside, as well as the voice of scolding Mrs. Lin. Lin could only respond submissively. "I say you''ve scolded me enough! Is it wrong for my wife to serve you? Why don''t you call Mrs. Song to give you some medicine!" Suddenly Qin Laosan''s angry voice sounded in the room. "Lao San, what do you mean?" Then came Old Liu''s sharp yelling. Then it was Old Qin who said, "Dad, don''t you say a few words? If you keep making trouble like this, the family will break up." "That''s right! The third brother and sister made a mistake in serving my mother. It''s not her who hurt her." Qin Laoer''s voice of dissatisfaction also came out. Old Man Qin couldn''t even pretend to be deaf and mute, and then his voice angrily scolded Old Liu: "Take it easy for me, I made the mistake of serving you, an old guy. Then no one will serve you anymore. Go back." Go to Lao Lius house! "Damn old man..." Old Liu finally calmed down. Outside the house, Song Jin and Qin Daya walked a few steps slower subconsciously, listening to everything going on in the house. Qin Daya even winked at Song Jin. Song Jin walked into his room, not forgetting to ask in a low voice: "Da Ya, do you know what happened?" "I know, I know!" Qin Daya had a daughter called Xiao Liu, so she was very interested in gossip, and then she started chatting with Song Jin with joy. Soon Song Jin figured it out. Song Jin went out too early today. It was still dark when we went out, let alone the sun. Wait for the sun to hit the yard. Old Liu asked Song Xiu to come under the sun. The yellow talisman he bought last night to ward off evil spirits was stained with his own saliva, and he accidentally put it on Song Xiu''s forehead while mumbling something. Unexpectedly, Song Xiu was overly frightened and subconsciously pushed Old Liu down, causing Old Liu to duck. This is a breakthrough! The daughter-in-law hurt her mother-in-law. Based on this alone, the Qin family can divorce Song Xiu. But fortunately, everyone thought Song Xiu was possessed by an evil spirit, so it was not Song Xiu who hurt the old Liu family, but what everyone thought was an evil spirit. It was noisy for most of the day. Xiao Liu and others **** Song Xiu. A ghost-painted talisman was pasted on Song Xiu''s forehead, and Song Xiu was force-fed a large bowl of talisman water. Song Xiu struggled hard. In the eyes of the Qin family, the evil spirit has not gone away. I dont know who had the bad idea that black dog blood and childrens urine would work. When Mrs. Liu heard this, she believed it again. She held her waist and complained that it hurt. She also ordered Mrs. Liu to pick up Lai Silang. Black dog blood is hard to find. There''s something to be said about children peeing! Shiro peed on Song Xiu on the spot. Its still the kind of person who lies behind his back. Song Xiu was so angry that his face became even more ferocious. This frightened old Mrs. Liu, and she quickly urged the men in the family to invite the old blind man to come over and calm the scene. Boss Qin couldn''t even think of not inviting him, and Mrs. Liu suppressed her with her filial piety. Unless the evil spirits were too powerful, they couldn''t be quelled by the evil amulet and the boy''s urine alone. The old blind man took the time to prepare black dog blood because he had a black dog at home. With the help of Brother Qin, he took a bowl of dog blood. Bring yellow talismans, peach wood swords, bronze mirrors, glutinous rice, etc. With all the tools to ward off evil spirits, the old blind man came to Lao Qin''s house. Noon is the time of day when Yang Qi is at its strongest, which is the perfect time to get rid of evil spirits. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Of course the old blind man said this. Don''t ask a blind man why he can draw talismans to drive away ghosts and perform rituals without any problems. He is just that capable. In fact, this kind of deceptive trick can only deceive some ignorant village women. Song Xiu was so angry that she fainted. The old blind man said that the evil spirits were gone! Let Song Xiu bask in the sun first to get rid of the remaining Yin Qi on his body. Otherwise, if the Yin Qi is not completely removed, he may be contaminated again later. After getting the money, the old blind man walked away contentedly. What Song Jin saw when he came back was the end. The adult men in the family had to avoid suspicion and couldn''t keep an eye on Song Xiu, so they had to stay in the main room, leaving Xiao Liu and Qin Daya watching. And old Liu''s sprained waist. Boss Qin has already gone to his third uncle to buy medicinal wine to treat bruises. Song Jin and Qin Daya just heard it. It was Mr. Lin who was helping Mr. Liu apply the medicinal wine. According to the third uncle''s instructions, rub the injured area back and forth vigorously until it becomes warm. This way the medicine will be effective and it will heal faster. Rubbing it without force had no effect, but with force, Mrs. Liu complained of pain again. Therefore, Mrs. Liu got angry and cursed, saying that Mr. Lin was deliberately retaliating against her. "Third aunt is so pitiful." Qin Daya sighed with emotion, "Obviously she did nothing wrong, but grandma still scolded her." "This is the difficulty of being a daughter-in-law. From now on, you should remember that when you encounter this kind of thing, you can tolerate it, but you can''t tolerate it blindly. If you can''t fight head-on, find someone who can subdue the other person and try your best to protect yourself. good." "Just like the uncle asked grandpa to speak just now?" Qin Daya''s eyes sparkled, "The only one who can live in this family is my grandpa." "good." Song Jin said appreciatively. Wait for Qin Daya to go out happily. The smile on Song Jin''s face faded. The woman living at the bottom of the old Qin family is Lin. As the daughter-in-law, Mrs. Lin could only endure it. Mrs. Lin does not have the confidence of Mr. Liu, nor does she have the support of Old Man Qin like the Song sisters. She is a typical girl raised by a poor family and is used to being criticized. I do whatever my mother-in-law tells me to do. Even if he was beaten or scolded, he would not dare to resist. If it hadn''t been for Qin Laosan''s protection these years, life would have been even more difficult under Lao Liu''s hands. Especially when she was a girl, her body suffered from long-term starvation and labor, and she developed a lot of physical problems. It took several years after she got married to have Erya. Currently, without a son, the Lin family is even less confident. She usually works hard in the Qin family. If Mr. Liu once again said that Mr. Lin was not filial to his parents-in-law and used this as an excuse to divorce his wife, no one would support Ms. Lin except Mr. Qin. The first of the seven laws of divorcing a wife is that a woman who is unfilial to her parents can divorce her without being criticized. Given Lin''s cowardly temperament. Being able to marry Qin Laosan is considered lucky. In his previous life, Song Jin knew that the three brothers of the Qin family might not be as good as Qin Mingsong, and they were not as capable as Qin Mingsong. They could only do some physical work to support their wives and children, but they were rare men who knew how to protect their wives. It can only be said that Song Jin had bad luck in his previous life. The only bad one among the four brothers was met by her. She was reincarnated but married to Qin Chi. Even if there is no relationship between the two, Qin Chi will still stand by her side when encountering problems, and has blocked the old Liu''s attempts to make things difficult for her several times. Thinking of this, Song Jin couldn''t help but think of Qin Chi. Although Shopkeeper Tao said that he had gone to Huangshan to visit and would not be able to come back for a while, Song Jin could not completely rest assured that he had not seen Qin Chi in person for a day. (End of chapter) Chapter 82 Poor people must be hateful Chapter 82 Poor people must be hateful Because Song Jin is pregnant. The Qin family would not let her get involved in such unfavorable things. Even the old Liu family, who always wanted to cause trouble for her, did not say anything for the sake of her great-grandson. Wait until the sun is not so big anymore. Song Xiu woke up. Xiao Liu called her a few words tentatively, "Xiao Song? Song Xiu? Is it Song Xiu?" Song Xiu looked confused. Then he looked at Xiao Liu pitifully, tears flowing down like a missing embankment, and there was no longer the sharpness and madness before. "Is this evil?" Xiao Liu asked tentatively. Song Xiu nodded repeatedly, "I''m going! Second sister-in-law, I''m fine, I''m fine!" "It''s okay!" Xiao Liu stroked her beating chest and finally felt relieved. He didn''t even notice that Song Xiu''s voice was trembling when he answered. She is so scared! If she didn''t say a few words along the way, she was worried that it would happen again. The fishy smell coming from her nose made Song Xiu feel nauseated. She wanted to vomit several times but could not vomit anything. Only then did I remember that she didn''t even eat breakfast today. She should have been extremely hungry, but at this moment she had no appetite at all. Song Xiu had never experienced such a miserable life in his previous life. It can be said that the actions of Old Liu and others today almost scared Song Xiu out of his courage. But Song Xiu''s temporary obedience was not a change of character. But I am afraid that I will be burned next! To deal with evil spirits, villagers usually tie up evil spirits and burn them in the sun at noon. In her previous life, Song Xiu was a prostitute, and she had heard a lot of gossip about her. Examples of evil spirits being set on fire occurred from time to time. The old blind man is considered to have a conscience in this area, at least he won''t kill people by opening his mouth. Fortune tellers or witches in some remote villages always tell evil spirits, and they have taken many innocent lives in their hands. Xiao Liu and Lin together. He helped Song Xiu untie his hands and feet. Qin Daya went to the kitchen to boil a large pot of water and asked Song Xiu to wash it off. Song Xiu cried aggrievedly while going to take a bath. Only after washing three large pots of hot water did he come out of the shower room. Mrs. Lin brought her another bowl of noodles. There was a fried egg and a few green vegetables on top, which was quite a hearty meal. Song Xiu was so hungry that his chest pressed against his back. He picked up the bowl and buried his head in eating while shedding tears. Everyone saw it and no one said anything. Who wouldn''t be upset when something like this happens? "Third sister-in-law, is my sister back?" After finishing the last mouthful of noodle soup, Song Xiu burped before asking about Song Jin. Mrs. Lin said truthfully: "I came back after noon, and I am still in the house." When he saw Song Xiu, his face turned ugly. Mrs. Lin quickly explained, "It''s not that the elder man''s wife doesn''t come out, it''s that everyone doesn''t let her get close to you. You also know that she is pregnant, so you can''t be distracted by this." This means that Song embroidery is unlucky. The whole family thought that Song Jin should not be contaminated! Song Xiu''s not very smart mind actually understood this underlying meaning at once! Even these words were like a sharp knife, piercing straight into her heart. Song Xiu did not dare to resent the Qin family. But he resented Song Jin! They are both sisters, why didn''t she save her even though she was about to die? ! After there was no one in the room and Song Xiu regained his breath, he immediately knocked on Song Jin''s door. Song Jin opened the door. Song Xiu immediately squeezed into the house, closed the door again, stared at Song Jin angrily and asked: "Why don''t you save me? Seeing me being humiliated by the Qin family, are you worthy of my father? My father asked you to protect me - " "Stop!" Song Jin interrupted Song Xiu and retorted sarcastically: "The night my father sent us away, he only told us to support each other, but he never said that I would protect you." "You are a sister, shouldn''t you protect your sister?" Song Xiu was furious, and it was natural for him to say this. "It''s not dark yet, what sweet dreams are you doing? From the day of the wedding, the little affection between us has disappeared." Song Jin looked at her sideways, as if he were condescending. The ridicule in those eyes deeply stung Song Xiu''s sensitive nerves, making Song Xiu''s face become more and more angry and distorted. Song Xiu had long been overwhelmed by anger. No reason worked for her. She only knew that Song Jin knew she had suffered a serious crime but turned a blind eye. This was Song Jin''s fault! "Song Jin!" Song Xiu''s eyes were red with anger, and she said deliberately and fiercely, "Have you forgotten that I know your handle!" "What''s the handle? Why didn''t I know?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "As long as I tell others that you are a reincarnated person, you will immediately be regarded as an evil spirit. Do you know what methods the country people use to deal with evil spirits?" Song Xiu thought of the example in his previous life, and when he looked at Song Jin again, he seemed to be able to see the tragic scene of Song Jin being forced to be burned on the fire. Song Jin had naturally heard of it and asked, "If I am evil, can you escape?" "If you push me too hard, I''ll kill you!" Song Xiu said bitterly. A call that was originally a threat. Song Jin only wanted to laugh after hearing this. In fact, she did laugh out loud and said in a nonchalant manner: "You will still be so naive in another life. When you threatened me, you knew in your heart that no one would believe it, and it might even be counterproductive, just like today... You think its evil. Thinking of today''s terrible experience. Song Xiu flinched. Before Song Xiu''s fear had subsided, Song Jin continued: "What if I go out and tell the Qin family now that the evil spirits in you, Song Xiu, are not gone, but you are just hiding them and are ready to murder the great-grandson of the old Qin family at any time?" Speaking of this, Song Jin''s cold eyes showed endless chill, "What do you think Mr. Liu will do?" Song Xiu suddenly felt like he was being showered with ice water. From the Tianling Cap above the head, it was cold to the bottom of the feet. The rest of the Qin family were fine. If Old Liu believed Song Jin''s lies, then Song Xiu would have to shed another layer of skin even if he didn''t die! You must know that Xiao Liu just said something yesterday, and she was tortured like this. When the time comes, as long as Old Liu is convinced that the evil spirit will murder his great-grandson, he will definitely do anything regardless of it! It''s impossible for the Qin family to help her! Not only Old Man Qin, but also the adults and children in the first, second and third bedrooms all turned towards Song Jin. So, Song Xiu got scared! "Sister, I just told you nonsense, don''t take it seriously! I swear I will never tell the secret even if I die..." Song Xiu turned around in panic and ran out. She was afraid that if she took a step too slow, Song Jin would catch her and not let her go. Precisely because she was in awe of this matter, Song Xiu had done everything in her power since her rebirth, but never mentioned her rebirth in front of outsiders, including Qin Mingsong, whom she tried every means to please. If he hadn''t been full of anger and nowhere to vent today, he wouldn''t have lost his mind and threatened Song Jin with this. Because there is no threat! The Qin family will only turn to that **** Song Jin! Song Xiu was now afraid that Song Jin would join forces with the Qin family to accuse her of being evil and set her on fire! Song Jin watched Song Xiu escape coldly. There are always some people in the world who are nice to outsiders but extremely harsh on their family members. They will take their anger out on their family members if anything goes wrong, and the family members will do nothing wrong. This kind of person is confident. They rely on nothing more than the connivance of their family members. Even if Song Xiu and Song Jin had a falling out. Song Xiu had a habit of transferring her grievances to Song Jin. Even if she didn''t dare to act like a monster in front of Song Jin, she still couldn''t stop her from treating Song Jin as the object of venting in her heart. In her previous life, Song Xiu was reduced to a prostitute, and she survived by relying on her resentment. All I can say is that poor people must be hateful. (End of chapter) Chapter 83 Bad news unique to Song Xiu Chapter 83 Bad news unique to Song Xiu Song Jin calmed down his emotions. As if nothing was wrong, he went to visit the injured old Mrs. Liu, smiling and talking in a gentle and touching manner. Old Liu was cured by Song Jin, who gave her a tael of silver, saying that she had worked hard for her injury, and asked her to use the money to buy meat to replenish her body. This granddaughter-in-law is very tight-lipped. It''s not easy to get a few pennies out of her hand. Old Liu was actually happy after getting one tael. It''s better than getting nothing, right? Find Lao Liu in Song Jin. Song Xiu was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she sneaked over to eavesdrop on the conversation between Song Jin and Old Liu. She didn''t accuse her of being evil until Song Jin stood up to leave. Only then did Song Xiu breathe a sigh of relief. "Auntie, what are you doing here?" Sanlang suddenly asked, and Song Xiu jumped up in fright, her screams stuck in her throat. "No, nothing." Song Xiu patted his chest. Sanlang looked at her in confusion again, "Then why were you sneaking around just now?" "You **** kid, who''s being sneaky!" Song Xiu grabbed Sanlang and wanted to stay away from the main room, for fear of being bumped into by Song Jin who came out. This move is just a cover-up. Everyone heard it from the moment Sanlang opened his mouth. It was useless no matter how hard Song Xiu tried to hide it. Song Jin had to sigh with emotion. Song Xiu''s body is really good. After being tortured like this today, she slept in the sun and was able to jump around again. Song Xiu''s feelings were different for the person involved. In fact, she had been exhausted for a long time, but she had just provoked Song Jin, and after learning that she went to the main house of the old Liu family. It almost scared her out of her wits! In this case, her little sleepiness had long since been frightened away! No, I forced myself to eavesdrop. Song Jin walked out of the main room and saw Song Xiu pulling Sanlang. As for Sanlang, this boy was not afraid at all that Song Xiu had just been possessed by "evil spirits". He also opened his **** eyes, as if he wanted to study Song Xiu all over. "Auntie, how does it feel to be evil? Is it fun?" Sanlang asked with curiosity on his face. Song Xiu''s face was ferocious for a moment. Then he left without looking back. When I returned to my room, I closed the door vigorously. The whole family heard the noise. The regret on Sanlang''s face was about to overflow, and he muttered in a low voice: "I''m just curious, I didn''t want to hurt you, why did you run away?" No! No more doubts. You, this kid, hit people on purpose. Song Jin knew that the second wife of the third son, even though he was only nine years old, was actually a ghost. He was the most promising child in the second room in the future. He got to know many people from all walks of life with his open mouth. He became very prosperous in Huizhou Mansion, and outsiders would call him Third Master Qin when they saw him. Don''t think that Song Xiu will be ashamed if she closes the door so loudly. Someone was looking out through the crack in the door. When she saw Sanlang acting obediently in front of Song Jin, Song Xiu felt a burst of jealousy in her heart. Why? Its obvious that Ive changed my relationship in this life! Why is Song Jin living so well? She is even better off now than in her previous life! At this time in her previous life, Song Jin was still being squeezed to survive in the hands of the old Liu family, and had to learn to work every day. On the contrary, she lived a good life, because she was assigned work, and as long as she cried, Song Jin would Take the initiative to help her share the burden. The only thing that could make Song Xiu happy was that Qin Chi was finally dead! Song Jin stopped the news of his death, but he was just deceiving himself. Song Xiu waited for this matter to be exposed, waiting to see Song Jin become a widow. When the time came, she would tell people everywhere that Qin Chi was killed by Song Jin. Presumably by that time, the elder couple would hate Song Jin to death! Song Jins life will never be easy in the future! With this hidden thought, Song Xiu successfully pulled herself out of the gloomy quagmire. There was a smile on that face. There is something unspeakably scary! Fortunately, no one from the old Qin family was there, otherwise Song Xiu would not be able to sleep peacefully tonight. The second day. Song Xiu slept comfortably all night. When I wake up, the previous gloom is gone. After breakfast, Song Xiu carefully avoided Song Jin and went to Li''s place to chat. She cared about Qin Chi in and out of her words. He said Qin Chi had been out for several days, but there was no news. Should he ask someone to go to the academy to check it out? Various encouragements were given to Li to find Qin Chi. "Fourth daughter-in-law." Li''s pair of seemingly gentle phoenix eyes, just looking at each other lightly, made people feel that there was no way to escape, "Are you really worried about Da Lang when you come to my place so early?" "Yes, yes." Song Xiu stammered, "I, I''m just worried about my sister. My sister... just keeps things to herself. As a younger sister, I''m right to ask for her." This lie actually went smoothly as he kept saying it. But in the end, Song Xiu couldn''t stay any longer under Li''s gaze, so she had to find an excuse to leave. Li''s face is not obvious. After Song Xiu left, he started to feel worried. When Boss Qin came back, he immediately said, "Hasn''t the news of Da Lang come back yet?" "Why are you asking about that bastard?" Boss Qin helped Li put away the embroidery. Mrs. Li worriedly said, "Song Xiu came here and said what she said, because she was afraid that I wouldn''t miss Dalang." With Song Xiu''s modest skills, Mrs. Li had already sensed something was wrong. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! It''s just that these things are wrong, and they are not what she wants to admit. Just because of Song Xiu''s attitude, it seems that something has happened to Qin Chi. Seeing this, Boss Qin had no choice but to say that he would go to the county town tomorrow, but he still said comfortingly: "Da Lang went to the academy to study before. He didn''t see anyone for ten days and a half, and I didn''t see how worried you were. I''ve only been there for five days now. What''s there to worry about?" "That''s what you said." Li was reluctantly relieved. Song Jinshang didn''t know that Song Xiu actually had the guts to go to Dafang to instigate. The purpose was to let the news of Qin Chi''s death spread back to Qinjiagou as soon as possible, and he even kept an eye on Dafang all day long. Until early the next morning. Boss Qin said he would go to the county seat. Song Xiu was so excited that she almost laughed out loud. He didn''t dare to show off his power in front of Song Jin, but secretly looked at Song Jin with a strange look, as if he was about to be unlucky. But Song Jin laughed angrily. This man''s mental illness has occurred again! It seems that even Song Jin admired Song Xiu a little. Having just experienced yesterday''s blow, my will was not depressed, my body was in good condition, and my ability to withstand it was also unusually strong. Let''s look at a normal fourteen or fifteen year old girl. I was so scared that my soul flew away. Maybe he would have been sick for a long time! Song Xiu''s good mood lasted until Boss Qin came back in the afternoon. When he saw Boss Qin about to enter the yard, he flushed with excitement and deliberately stood not far from Song Jin. When he looked at Song Jin, his eyes were filled with sadness at one moment, and then with a mean smile at the next. Song Jin has been feeling a little uncomfortable in her abdomen since the day Song Xiu was regarded as an evil spirit. So I didnt go to the pharmacy. Boss Qin came back and went to the kitchen to scoop out a ladle of water and drank it down. Then he passed by the door of Qin Chi and Song Jin''s house and smiled when he saw Song Jin sitting under the eaves. "Daughter-in-law, that brat went to Huangshan with his classmates and won''t be able to return home for ten days." As soon as Boss Qin said this. Song Jin was not surprised. Song Xiu, on the other hand, screamed with excitement: "Impossible! You lied! There is absolutely no way he went to Huangshan!" Boss Qin and Song Jin both looked at Song Xiu. "What do you mean by that?" Boss Qin asked with a rare serious expression. Mainly because the malice on Song Xiu''s face was too obvious, which made Boss Qin very uncomfortable. Song Xiu turned to Song Jin, "Song Jin! Where Qin Chi went, you know better than me! In order to hide his -" Song Jin grabbed a small stool on the side and threw it directly at Song Xiu. Her phoenix eyes were filled with threats and she said, "If you have anything to say, let it go through your head before you say it." Song Xiu shivered with fright. He took two steps back. Boss Qin took out a letter from his arms and said, "This is Dalang''s safe letter. It just arrived today. When I went to the county seat, I happened to meet the person who brought the letter." Song Jin hasn''t taken it over yet to look at it. Song Xiu strode over like a madman, snatched the letter away, opened it without asking any questions, and found that there were not many words in the letter, just a few words to say safe. The signature is Qin Chi. And the date of the letter! Song Xiu was not familiar with Qin Chi in his previous life. But she is no stranger to Qin Chi''s handwriting! You must know that in her previous life, she was married to Qin Chi and lived in his house for a long time. There are many Qin Chi''s copybooks, policy papers and articles hidden on the bookshelf. Therefore, Song Xiu recognized it at a glance. This was Qin Chi''s character! The date of the letter was actually yesterday? ! impossible! He obviously died five days ago, how could he not die? ! The panic and unwillingness were like a violent storm, rushing into my heart almost at the same time, and it was like a tight string in my mind that suddenly broke! This bad news, unique to Song Xiu, came unexpectedly. The next moment, Song Xiu''s eyes darkened. The person stood up straight and fell down! PS: Family members, 7,000 words have been updated today. Its the beginning of the month. Please vote for me. If there are more votes, I will update it tomorrow. (End of chapter) Chapter 84 Whats wrong with this, young master? Chapter 84: Whats wrong with the young master? Qin Chi was still lying in bed recovering from his injuries at this time, unaware that someone in his family was so excited that he fainted because he was not dead. Ever since he learned that Song Jin had gone to the bookstore to inquire about his whereabouts from shopkeeper Tao, Qin Chi''s face had not changed much, but his subordinates who knew him well knew that his master was in a good mood. At least it shows that the person at home cares about his life and death. Another twenty taels were spent on him. Don''t underestimate twenty taels. Poor farmers cannot make this money all year round. "Lao Huo, how much money did your wife spend on you?" Qin Chi looked at Fang Liang and chatted with Lao Huo. Old Huo Zhanger was confused, "Sir, I don''t have a wife." "Hey, my wife has already spent 2,120 taels on me." Qin Chi answered the question, seemingly distressed. Lao Huo was choked. What''s wrong with this, young master? This is no longer the aloof young man he is familiar with! Qin Chi was quiet for a while and asked again: "Hasn''t the news from Yixian County been sent yet?" "Sir, today is not over yet." Lao Huo said with a serious face, didn''t yesterday''s news come here this morning? "My wife hasn''t been to the pharmacy for several days... Could it be that she is concerned about my safety?" Qin Chi said quietly again. Will survive this time. Afterwards, Qin Chi narrowly escaped death and was still frightened. If "October 9th" hadn''t happened, he would have gone to see his uncle with ease. Especially when they were getting on the carriage, Song Jin actually came out to see him off. Qin Chi was inexplicably flustered at that time. There is a thought of eternal farewell. Of course, he didn''t want to admit that the other party had the illusion that he was solemnly sending him to his death! Qin Chi temporarily decided to take all the secret guards with him, and also sent a message to Lao Huo, asking him to bring people to follow him. Just a thought. Saved him and his uncle''s life! When he found out that Qin Chi was distracted again, Lao Huo pretended to be deaf. He knew that Qin Chi didn''t insist on being answered, and suddenly he started talking strangely. It was probably caused by lying in bed for a long time. He was injured last time, wasn''t it the same? "Why doesn''t Lao Huo say anything?" Qin Chi turned his head and asked with eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling. Lao Huo suddenly felt a little numb. The young master''s smile was so scary, "Young Master, do you want to read a book? I''ll get it for you right now." "Go." Qin Chi raised his hand to signal him to go. Lao Huo got up and took a few steps toward the desk when he suddenly stopped and looked back. He happened to see Qin Chi on the bed, propping himself up with his elbows as if he was about to get up. The next moment. "Young master, no!" Lao Huo strode back to the bed and pushed Qin Chi back forcefully, "The prince said that the young master needs to lie down for half a month this time." "My uncle is not a doctor." Qin Chi said helplessly, "I''m careful that sitting up won''t affect the healing of the wound." "I can''t make the decision." Lao Huo strictly implemented He Lianpu''s orders. Qin Chi could only retreat and say, "I want to see Dr. Jing, go and ask him to come." "Okay, sir, wait a moment." Lao Huo did not leave the bed, but shouted outside, "Young Master wants to see Dr. Jing. If anyone outside hears it, go and call him." Qin Chi narrowed his eyes slightly, "Huo Zhenyong, are you brave enough to take care of me?" "Master, what you said is serious!" Lao Huo was not afraid of Qin Chi''s threat at all, "As long as the young master is in good health, he can do whatever he wants. But if the young master wants to ruin his body, we cannot go along with you. Hehe, this is also what your grandfather meant." Lao Huo, Lao Li Tou, Shopkeeper Tao and others were all confidants of Prince Rui. They had been arranged to protect Qin Chi and the Li family very early. In fact, they were elders who had watched Qin Chi grow up, so their affection for each other was extraordinary. Who else would dare to look like this? Doctor Jing arrived very quickly, and He Lianpu came with him. "Master, what''s wrong with you?" Doctor Jing came over in a hurry, sweat dripping from his forehead. Lao Huo gave way. Doctor Jing sat down and took Qin Chi''s pulse. Qin Chi''s eyes were fixed on Dr. Jing for a moment, and he asked pointedly: "Mr. Jing, I feel much better today. Can I go back to Yi County to recuperate?" Doctor Jing wondered: "How about we take care of him for another three to five days? My master''s body is really not suitable for the hard work of travelling." On the day of the serious injury, I still had symptoms of wind and cold. Then he had high fever for three consecutive days. The injury has just improved after treatment, but in fact it will take three to five months of careful nursing before the damaged vitality can be restored. In spite of Qin Chi''s downcast expression, Doctor Jing pretended not to notice and refused to compromise. In fact, Doctor Jing wanted to ask aloud, doesn''t the young master have any concerns about his weak body and bones? Qin Chi turned to look at He Lianpu, "If uncle stays in this manor for a long time, it will inevitably attract attention. I don''t want to cause trouble to uncle, so I''d better leave." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Oh!" He Lianpu almost laughed. This excuse is not clever enough. "Chier, you are worrying too much. Don''t worry about causing trouble to uncle. Uncle is not afraid of trouble." He Lianpu was rarely in a happy mood. Doctor Jing smiled and said nothing. On the other hand, Lao Huo looked at Qin Chi with difficulty. It was common for the prince to get sick. It was strange that he didn''t get sick. In fact, He Lianpu did not fall ill during the attack. Not to mention the accompanying imperial physician''s accident, even Doctor Jing was surprised. Qin Chi suddenly fell silent. On the way to Huizhou, He Lianpu and his party had to walk for two or three days and then rest for five or six days. The reason lies in Helian Pu. Due to physical reasons, he has never left the capital. This insistence on coming to Huangshan was actually because the imperial doctor diagnosed that Helian Pu''s time was short. He wanted to see his sister and nephew before he died, so he made an excuse to come to Huangshan to listen to the sermon. And in private with the emperor, he made another statement, bluntly saying that Huangshan was the place he chose to return to Xu. The emperor had no choice but to agree. Originally, the emperor arranged for two imperial doctors to accompany him. It was He Lianpu who refused. But he didn''t have much time to do anything, and He Lianpu didn''t plan to say anything. During this period, he would transfer all the forces in the palace to his nephew one by one. "Chi''er is in good spirits today and seems to be in good health." Helian Pu sat on the soft chair in front of the bed. It was a very simple action, but he performed it with dignity and elegance. He just raised his hand and waved. Doctor Jing, Lao Huo and others retreated. He Lianpu''s eyes were gentle, "How is your mother doing?" "Good." Qin Chi thought for a moment and then said, "My father is very good to my mother and relies on her for everything. Uncle, when he rescued my mother, he didn''t know her identity. Even now, my father doesn''t know, mother." She only said that she was a girl from a wealthy family, and her family members all died while fleeing. Sadness flashed across Helian Pu''s gentle eyes. On the eve of her engagement, she was tricked and left homeless. The rules of this powerful family are strict, and the missing woman''s reputation is completely ruined. Family members dont have to care. But my sister doesn''t mind, and would rather marry a rough guy from the country than return to the capital. When the people from the palace came to find him, how old would Qin Chi be? The father and son could only choose respect. PS: There is a short chapter, I will make up for it. Chapter 85 You know how to comfort yourself Chapter 85 You know how to comfort yourself Li''s real surname was Helian, and she would tell others that her surname was Li, but in fact, the surname of the nurse who raised her was Li, and she died in a plot to save her life. The palace investigated clearly back then. The people and families behind the plot against the Li family have been dealt with. However, some things have happened and it is difficult to go back to the past. He Lianpu sat there for a while. After Qin Chi drank the medicine, he looked sleepy. He Lianpu then stood up and left, telling him to take good care of his injuries and saying that they would leave the manor together when he recovered. Qin Chi pinched his brows and couldn''t help but think about Qinjiagou... The current Lao Qin family. Song Xiu suddenly fainted and made a mess. Boss Qin thinks that these four younger siblings are seriously ill. Not to mention that he rushed up and snatched the safety letter out of nowhere, and even fainted as if he had been greatly stimulated. Before he fainted, he was still saying it was impossible? What''s impossible? Is it wrong to keep his son safe? The family members were looking at him with strange eyes, as if he had bullied Song Xiu. The fourth child showed his face when he came back. Did Qin Mingzhong show his face? Qin''s third uncle was called again. He was found to be a little weak, and he was angry and angry. He would be fine when he woke up. Qin Mingsong just happened to be back. When I heard this, I felt angry, and when I saw Song Xiu''s haggard face, heavy dark eyes, and obviously lost weight, she was lying on the bed as if she had no love in her life. You must know that Song Xiu''s appearance is good, and she is the most beautiful age for women. She usually shows great admiration for Qin Mingsong, and she is his first woman, which naturally makes him a little attracted to her. No, Qin Mingsong lost his temper at Boss Qin because of Song Xiu. Boss Qin and Song Jin were present at that time. Qin Mingsong couldn''t get angry at Song Jin, so he could only blame Boss Qin. Later, when he learned that Song Xiu was tortured by Mr. Liu who said he was possessed by evil spirits, he became even more unhappy. Having read the books of sages, Qin Mingsong naturally did not believe in the evil spirits, but he could not resist the ignorance of rural women. "Brother, if a girl leaves her hometown and marries into my family, it''s okay if my family doesn''t treat her well. How can she be so humiliated..." They were all humiliated beyond recognition! Qin Mingsong suppressed his anger again and said: "There is also the matter of inviting the old blind man. Mother doesn''t understand that this is ridiculous, and neither does the elder brother? Why don''t you stop it and let her at such a young age bear what these brothers have to do?" If you are dissatisfied with me, just come at me, why bother torturing my wife..." Boss Qin opened his mouth to explain. But I also felt that what I said was ridiculous, and probably no one would believe it. Are you saying that your wife fainted because of Dalangs letter of safety? Not to mention that Qin Mingsong didn''t believe this reason, the rest of the Qin family found it incredible. If you really say this, you still have to pull out Qin Chi. I dont know how the people listening will arrange it. Boss Qin thought for a while, then simply remained silent and allowed Qin Mingsong to accuse him. Qin Laosan is not as good-tempered as his elder brother, "Fourth, can you stop what mom is going to do? Don''t blame me and my eldest brother for things you can''t do. Also, she is your wife, who should The one who protects her is you, not her brothers!" "The third brother is right. The three of us disobeyed my mother and were scolded by her for being unfilial, just to protect the fourth brother and sister. If word spreads, your face will be tarnished." Qin Laoer''s words were so embarrassing. The uncle himself has to avoid suspicion. Qin Mingsong''s accusation sounded reasonable at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it was really no wonder that the three brothers just asked Qin Mingsong to accuse his parents? Does he dare? Don''t dare! Filial piety alone suppressed him. At this time, there were only four brothers in the main house. Old Qin and Mrs. Liu were in the main room. Today, Mrs. Liu had a backache and couldn''t get out of bed. She could vaguely hear the brothers in the hall talking, but it wasn''t very clear. "Old man, are they arguing?" Old Mrs. Liu wanted to get up and listen, but she grimaced in pain and said, "Go and take a look, don''t start fighting." Old Man Qin said solemnly: "Let the four brothers talk about their dissatisfaction, so as not to affect the relationship between the brothers." The son whom he was most satisfied with was not close to his brothers, and Old Qin was also upset about this. "It''s all your fault! What kind of wife should I choose for my fourth son? He''ll have no peace of mind all day long!" Mrs. Liu couldn''t blame her son, she could only blame Song Xiu. Old Qin was helpless, "I originally decided to marry Song Jin, who is a legitimate daughter. The upbringing of a legitimate daughter and a concubine''s daughter are different in a wealthy family. It was you who got involved in the marriage exchange. Who can you blame?" "It''s not Song Xiu who treated me." "Song Jin can''t have a baby? I was also fooled..." Old Liu defended with a guilty conscience. "Everyone is pregnant, so you can''t give birth? You were obsessed with money and wasted your son''s life." Old Qin glared at Old Liu. Old Liu''s mouth was trembling, but he couldn''t hold back a word of retort. After this period of comparison, Song Jin is much better than Song Xiu. The most important thing is that he can live up to his expectations and make money. The two elders refused to admit it. After all, they are partial to their younger son in their hearts. They have spent half their lives focusing on his younger son, so their feelings are naturally deep. On the contrary, Qin Chi was more than respectful to the two elders, but not very close to them. Qin Chi gets closer to the eldest couple. What''s more, the two elders have heard many people say that Qin Chi is weak and will not live long, and they also agree with this statement. Lets talk about the rest of the family. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Xiao Liu took care of the unconscious Song Xiu. Mrs. Lin is busy in the kitchen. Qin Daya is taking care of his younger brother and younger sister. The most leisurely people were Li and Song Jin, who were talking in the big house. Song Jin did not take care of Song Xiu. The reason is naturally that she is pregnant and it is very inconvenient. "Sister-in-law!" Qin Daya''s call came from outside the house, "Auntie woke up and is clamoring to see you." "I know." Song Jin responded. Li asked: "Are you going to see her?" "I don''t really want to go, but if I don''t go, what will other people think?" Song Jin felt helpless. Mrs. Li nodded, "Go and deal with it. There is no need to promise her anything." "Listen to your mother-in-law." Song Jin stood up and said goodbye to Mr. Li before leaving. After leaving the main room, I moved to the fourth room. The voices of Song Xiu and Xiao Liu came from the room. Hearing the voice, Song Xiu was a little excited. When she woke up, she shouted to see Song Jin. "Where''s Song Jin? Why doesn''t she come? Doesn''t she dare to see me?" "Here you come! What do you want from me?" Song Jin pushed open the ajar door and went in. Song Xiu got up from the bed, rushed to Song Jin, and said a little crazy: "Then you found someone to forge the letter, right? Song Jin, you can only play such little tricks." Song Jin''s face was expressionless, "As long as you are happy." In fact, she wanted to say that Song Xiu knew how to comfort herself. But Song Xiu didn''t hear any rebuttal and became even more certain that Song Jin was up to something. Thats it! Qin Chi died in his previous life, how could he still be alive in this life? Xiao Liu came over with a gossipy face. "Fourth brother and sister, elder brother''s wife, what are you talking about? I don''t understand at all. And there is a forged letter? What kind of letter?" As soon as these words came out, Song Xiu''s mind suddenly cleared. There is an outsider here. What did she say just now? Chapter 86 a safe letter Chapter 86 A Letter of Peace "Second sister-in-law, this is a secret between my sister and I. Please don''t pry." Song Xiu finally returned to her former self, the crazy look on her face disappeared, and she quickly opened her mouth to cover it up. As long as Qin Chi is really dead! Just thinking about it made her excited. But these can only be hidden in the heart and cannot be preached externally. Otherwise, if word gets out that she is looking forward to Qin Chi''s death, will she still have a foothold in the Qin family? Song Xiu subconsciously looked at Song Jin. But she happened to catch Song Jin''s calm and mocking eyes, as if she was a big joke. Song Xiu, who understood the meaning in her eyes, instantly became angry. The man is dead, but he still dares to laugh at her? Song Xiu had been waiting for so long just to see Song Jin''s collapse and despair after Qin Chi''s death. As long as she didn''t see it for a day, she would not give up and would always stare at Song Jin. Mr. Liu looked at Song Jin and then at Song embroidery. There was obviously gossip, but she didn''t know it, and her heart felt itchy, like a cat scratching. Then Song Xiu added: "Second sister-in-law, I want to talk to my sister alone." "Okay, I''m going out first." For Song Jin''s sake, Xiao Liu reluctantly went out and closed the door for the two of them. Song Xiu glanced at the door and saw that Mr. Liu had really left, so she stopped pretending and gloated: "Tsk, tsk, sister, you should recognize the reality as soon as possible. There is no resurrection after death." "You''re just talking nonsense like this when you come to me?" Song Jin should have guessed that Song Xiu would not give up until he could reach the Yellow River. If he wanted her to wake up completely, Qin Chi would probably be the only one to show up. "My sister just wants to comfort my sister. After all, my sister will have to..." Song Xiu''s mocking words suddenly stopped. Because Song Xiu was standing facing the door, it was not difficult to catch a glimpse of the tall figure appearing at the door. In just an instant, the sharp and domineering look on his face suddenly turned into a pitiful one, and he said in an aggrieved voice: "Sister, I''m just worried about you. How could you misunderstand me?" Song Jin once again saw how quickly Song Xiu changed his face. Faster than turning the pages of a book! At the same time, Song Jin also smelled a conspiracy. Sure enough, there was movement from the door behind him. "Squeak." The ajar door was pushed open. Qin Mingsong appeared outside the door, and his cold eyes fell first on Song Jin''s face, and then on Song Xiu. "Husband!" Song Xiu''s baby swallow threw herself into Qin Mingsong''s arms like she had thrown herself into the forest, and called her husband in a sweet voice. For some men of certain social status, their wives would call their husbands "husband". Song Xiu obviously did this on purpose. In Song Xiu''s heart, Song Jin''s statement that she didn''t like Qin Mingsong was a deliberate lie. Song Jin wanted to see with her own eyes that she was Qin Mingsong''s wife in this life. Song Jin must be jealous of her at this time. Thinking that Song Jin was jealous of him, Song Xiu felt happy, even happier than seeing Qin Mingsong. Song Jin was also glad that he didn''t know what Song Xiu was thinking. Otherwise, she would reconsider whether to leave Song Xiu to disgust Qin Mingsong and Bai Cuiwei. "Da Song, as Xiu''er''s sister, how can you stand by and watch her suffer?" Qin Mingsong calmly asked Song Jin. Song Jin''s eyes sneered, "The crimes Xiu''er suffered are all related to your own mother. If my uncle really wants to seek justice for her, he should go to the main room now instead of questioning my niece-in-law." I dont know what it means! He dared not but had the nerve to question the juniors about disobeying his elders? Who gave him face? Song Jin didn''t even turn his eyes away from the two of them before stepping past them and stepping out of the room. If it wasn''t for the sake of a better reputation, she wouldn''t be happy to come here at all. Song Jin, who was looking past the two of them, did not see the cold and gloomy look in Qin Mingsong''s eyes. Does anyone in this family dare to question him? Maybe he sensed that Qin Mingsong''s mood was wrong. Song Xiu pretended to be scared and shrank into his arms. "Husband, I''m scared, wuwu, luckily you''re back, everyone doesn''t like me, everyone likes my sister..." "It doesn''t matter, you still have me." Qin Mingsong likes the feeling of being relied on and needed, as if he is her god. Song Jin, who walked out of the door, happened to listen to what the two said. This Song Xiu knows how to apply eye drops. But, does Song Jin care? Song Jin didn''t care what Qin Mingsong thought of her. Only Song Xiu thought that Song Jin''s feelings for Qin Mingsong were still lingering, and she thought she was showing off her affection, deliberately saying these words when Song Jin just stepped out of the door. Song Jin didn''t want to hear anything the two of them said next and went straight back to the house. Slowly walked to the big bookshelf. Qin Chi''s safety letter was taken out from a grid. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Xiu suddenly fell into a coma, and the family was in chaos for a while. She had not read the letter yet, but Song Xiu had such a big reaction, so the letter was probably true. Open the letter gently. There are only a few sentences above. Song Jin stared at the words above, thoughtfully. It was confirmed that it was Qin Chi''s handwriting, but the handwriting was a little frivolous and showed a lack of wrist strength. Song Jin touched the letter paper carefully and smelled the ink. It was Hui ink and Chengxintang paper, which revealed a lot of information. Qin Chi did not necessarily go to Huangshan. Even if you go to Huangshan, it is not just for fun. Judging from the number of words, the person may be injured or seriously ill, or weak and weak. When it comes to returning home in another ten days, 80% of the time the person will be in a serious condition. Qin Chi never expected this. With just one letter, Song Jin could guess so many things, and his guesses were pretty accurate. Song Jin didn''t see anything more from the letter and turned to look at the envelope. This letter is unremarkable. It can be seen outside at any time. The letter paper is made of Chengxintang paper, but the envelope is ordinary. I wonder if this is intentional. The secrets in Qin Chi seemed to be revealed at any time, but Song Jin did not dwell on it anymore, folded the letter again, and put it back in its original position. Qin Mingsong is at home. Song Xiu became a docile and well-behaved little daughter-in-law again, so she had no time to trouble Song Jin. She followed Qin Mingsong all day long, looking very affectionate. She no longer did the housework that belonged to her in the past, and it all fell on Xiao Liu and Lin. Only old Liu in the Qin family dared to let Song Xiu work. Now Mr. Liu is lying on the bed. Xiao Liu came close to Song Jin and whispered: "Look at the appearance of the four younger brothers and sisters, are they normal? My father-in-law is right to ask my uncle to go home. If he is completely crazy, it will be difficult to cure." " What''s the meaning? Song Jin was confused for a moment and looked at Xiao Liu with questioning eyes, "What can''t be cured?" "Oh, have you forgotten that the fourth brother and sister are overly sentimental?" Xiao Liu peeked at the two slimy people not far away. The corner of Song Jin''s mouth twitched, "Earlier you said she was possessed by evil spirits?" "I just said it casually, but my mother believed it." Xiao Liu looked around guiltily, then whispered into Song Jin''s ear, "But then I saw her several times, and she was almost stunned. The old blind man also said it was true when he came. It should be true." Song Jin didn''t want to expose Xiao Liu anymore. This guy loves to make trouble, and he doesn''t care about anyone, big or small. (End of chapter) Chapter 87 Qin Chi returns Chapter 87 Qin Chi returns Qin Mingsong stayed at home for five days. Song Xiu took good care of her body at a speed visible to the naked eye. There is also a trace of charm between the eyebrows and eyes, obviously the body and mind are well nourished, but she has a bit of a real girl, like a white peony flower in full bloom. The next two or three days. The two were locked in the house almost all day. From time to time, a slight muffled sound would be heard, causing people in the other three rooms who could understand it to walk around the fourth room. Song Jin went to the medicine shop these days and was not at home during the day. It was Xiao Liu who gossiped with her, and then she found out that the two of them had done ridiculous things. They thought that if they locked the door, others wouldn''t know? However, Qin Mingsong refreshed Song Jin''s understanding. Wasn''t he noble in his previous life? A doubt flashed through Song Jin''s heart. Qin Mingsong doesn''t look like a man who would protect his sweetheart now, so why didn''t he touch her in the previous life? You know, Song Jin thinks he has good looks. Before anything happened to the Song family. There are many people coming to ask for marriage. There must be something in this, but these are all things from the past life, and there is no way to study them. Song Jin was not interested in investigating. Just think about it and let it go. The dinner that day was very sumptuous, and a big fat chicken was specially killed. It was said that Qin Mingsong was going back to the academy tomorrow, so he would kill a chicken and make soup today to replenish his health. This is what Mr. Liu confessed early in the morning. Xiao Liu curled her lips and whispered in Song Jin''s ear, "My uncle must have been doing too much in the past few days, so your grandmother wanted to kill the chicken to make up for him." "Ahem." Song Jin almost choked on the chicken soup. Xiao Liu raised her hand and gave it to Song Jinshun, "Drink slowly, no one will **** your chicken legs." "That''s right, I won''t steal it." Sanlang raised his little hand, but his little eyes looked at the big chicken drumstick in the bowl of Song Jin Soup. The other children were also greedy, but none of them wanted what they wanted. They were all so well-behaved that they made people feel soft. In her previous life, Song Jin worked every day and was as tired as a dog. She was not very close to her children. Perhaps because of Qin Mingsong, they didn''t seem to be warm to her. This life is different. Everyone calls her sister-in-law affectionately every day. Song Jin promised softly: "I''ll treat you to roast chicken tomorrow, secretly." The eyes of several children suddenly lit up, and they nodded again and again like chickens pecking at rice. The big dining table in Lao Qin''s house is rectangular. Old Qin and Old Liu sit at the head of the table. The closer the position is to the two, the more it represents the status of the family. However, there is no room for more than a dozen people in the family, so the children do not eat at the big dining table. They are assigned to a small table. . Xiao Liu has to take care of the twins. Mrs. Lin has to take care of Erya''s meal. The two of them usually sit at the small table. Song Jin simply didn''t want to sit at the same table with Qin Mingsong and Song Xiu, so she came to eat at the small table privately so that she wouldn''t have to see them unable to eat. "Ahem..." There was a slight coughing sound coming from outside the yard. Mrs. Li immediately put down her bowls and chopsticks and walked out a bit rudely. Boss Qin also put it down and said, "I''m going to take a look. I guess Da Lang is back!" The Qin family is very familiar with that coughing sound. Is there really no one else but Qin Chi? Song Jin was in a daze for a moment, and the hand holding the chopsticks was trembling slightly with nervousness, but she was completely unaware of this. Just a familiar cough made Song Jin lose his mind. Erlang and Sanlang all quickly picked up the rice, or walked out with the food in hand. Silang and Wulang also wanted to follow suit and ran out, but were caught back by Xiao Liu. "How is that possible?!" The woman''s sharp cry shocked Song Jin. Looking at Song Xiu who was losing his composure in front of the big dinner table, Song Jin''s distant thoughts finally returned. Is Qin Chi back? ! The real person is back! Didnt it say it would take about ten days? Song Xiu ignored Qin Mingsong''s surprised look and hurriedly got up from the dining table and ran to the door. Qin Chi stood in the yard, tall and elegant, with a distinguished temperament. However, the cloth gown he wore today was slightly loose, making him look even more elegant. Mrs. Li stepped forward and hugged him, her phoenix eyes filled with mist, and she began to look at her son carefully, "Mom had a nightmare. In the dream, something happened to you, but it scared me." "Dreams are the opposite." Qin Chi comforted with a chuckle. "Live, come back alive?!" Song Xiu''s face was full of disbelief, and she was mumbling weird words that she couldn''t wait for. It sounds weird to others. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin ignored the strange looks from others, walked to Song Xiu step by step, and said lightly: "Yes, my husband-in-law is back alive. Are you surprised? My good sister." "Impossible! How..." Song Xiu was so stimulated that his face turned blue. He looked like he was going crazy at any moment, especially when he looked at Song Jin, his eyes seemed to be filled with poison. But the more she acted like this, the stronger the smile on Song Jin''s lips became, "I don''t think I''m a man who punishes his relatives. At least he survived after marrying me. If you look closely, I''m still a prosperous husband." So on the contrary, Song Xiu is a scumbag. When Qin Chi married her in his previous life, he died and his whole house was completely wiped out. Song Jin clearly didn''t say this, but the look in his eyes made Song Xiu extremely angry. He couldn''t help but rolled his eyes several times. Then the person fell down softly! Song Jin pretended to help her eagerly, "Xiu''er? What''s wrong with Xiu''er? Why did she suddenly faint again." Qin Mingsong originally stood up to come over, but when he saw this situation, he quickly came over, as did everyone else. Mrs. Liu came up and pressed Song Xiu''s hand. While doing so, she complained: "Uncle, please take the fourth brother and sister back to the house to have a rest. From now on, you should be more moderate in things. The fourth brother and sister are delicate and delicate. Don''t worry." Getting tired." "Second sister-in-law, please stop talking..." Qin Mingsong blushed at the words. It took a lot of effort to calm down and carry Song Xiu back to the house. At this moment, Qin Chi''s return is not that concerning. Except for Song Xiu, Dafang''s people, and the children at home, the rest of the Qin family were accustomed to it and had no feelings about Qin Chi''s return. This is his home. Isn''t it normal for him to go home? When he usually goes to the academy, Qin Chi only comes back once a month. Qin Chi comforted Mr. Li and got rid of the few kids at home who were clinging to him. Step by step, he walked towards Song Jin who was standing in front of the main room with a clear goal. There were obviously other people here, but Qin Chi only saw Song Jin in his eyes at the moment. "Madam, my husband is back." He came back alive! Qin Chi added something in his mind. Under that calm face, there were a pair of burning black eyes, which contained too many things at this moment. Song Jin''s feelings were different. I just felt that the light in his eyes was too bright, far better than the most dazzling stars in the night sky, and Song Jin subconsciously wanted to avoid it. Song Jin lowered his eyes and responded gently: "Well, I hope you''re back safely, sir. Are you hungry? I''ve made chicken soup at home tonight, and I''ll get you a bowl." "Okay! Thank you for your hard work, ma''am." Qin Chi''s eyes followed Song Jin''s back, and he reluctantly took it back until Song Jin entered the kitchen. PS: No updates tonight, good night. Chapter 88 Because I live better than her Chapter 88 Because I live better than her Song Jin went to the kitchen to get clean dishes and chopsticks. Back in the main room, Qin Chi was talking to Old Man Qin. He poured some chicken soup for Qin Chi and put it in front of him. "Master, eat slowly. I''m going to see Xiu''er." Song Jin said softly, mainly because she didn''t want to interfere with his conversation with Old Qin. Qin Chi looked at Song Jin''s features carefully and confirmed that Song Jin was happy for his return, even though she hid this joy very well. Qin Chi saw her turning around and quickly grabbed her wrist, "Have you eaten enough, madam?" "I''m stuffed." Song Jin responded softly. When Qin Chi let go, Song Jin left the main room and slowly walked to the fourth room. When he saw Xiao Liu coming out halfway, he still looked unhappy, "You want to see her? She''s woken up and everything is fine. My uncle is comforting her, so don''t disturb them." After saying this, Xiao Liu even winked at Song Jin. Some words are hard to describe. Song Jin was easily convinced. It wasn''t that she was cold-blooded and didn''t want to see Song Xiu, it was her second aunt who asked her not to disturb Song Xiu. The reasons are very good and sufficient. Song Jin turned back to his room. Qin Chi has come back and needs to clean up. As soon as he arranged the bedding, Qin Chi stepped into the room, stepped forward and took Song Jin''s hand, and they sat side by side on the edge of the bed. "Madam, there is no need to be busy. If you have anything to do, let your husband come." Qin Chi took out a jade pendant carved from mutton-fat white jade from his arms. It is a beautifully carved jade Buddha. The Buddha statue has kind eyebrows and kind eyes, is solemn and pleasing to the eye. There was a small red rope tied to one end of the Jade Buddha. Qin Chi put the Jade Buddha around Song Jin''s neck and hid the Buddha statue in his lapel. "Please give me the Jade Buddha that was consecrated by Master De Tao. I hope it can protect my wife and children." Qin Chi did not say that this was one of the gifts from He Lianpu. Song Jinfeng blinked lightly. Blink away the water mist that was about to overflow. "Thank you sir, I like it very much." Song Jin was moved for just a moment, and soon began to think about how much the Buddha statue was worth, and how to repay the gift, as it was not easy to take advantage of others. Qin Chi gently straightened Song Jin''s clothes and pretended to ask casually: "Do you know where my husband has offended my aunt?" Song Jin''s eyes flickered, "Why do you ask me this?" "I suspect she''s always expecting me to die." Qin Chi Qingyue''s voice was deliberately soft. Song Jin wants to say that the word "suspect" can be removed, but Song Xiu is just looking forward to your death. But can you admit this? cannot! Song Jin opened her eyes and told lies, and said in an extremely serious tone, "My husband, you are too worried. Xiu''er has no grudge against you. The person she really resents is me." The conflict between her and Song Xiu. The person in the entire Qin family who knows it best is Qin Chi, so Song Jin doesn''t need to hide it. "If I live well, she will be unhappy." After Song Jin said this, she looked directly at Qin Chi, "What she is proud of is that she married a scholar. She probably found out that my husband is as talented and learned as my brother-in-law, and she started to be jealous of you." It''s really a complete fabrication. Qin Chi was almost amused by her. Okay, let''s just assume she''s right. "Then Madam, do you know why Song Xiu resents you?" Qin Chi asked again deliberately. Song Jin looked serious, "Because I live a better life than her." "Pfft" It''s come full circle, and it''s back again! Qin Chi finally couldn''t hold it back and laughed loudly. Not a fake smile, but a real laugh from the lady. When he was halfway laughing, he looked up again and saw his wife''s serious and puzzled look. Qin Chi couldn''t hold it back and immediately burst out into a new round of laughter. "Hahaha" The secret guards who followed Qinjiagou were surprised when they heard Qin Chi''s joyful laughter. While he was recovering from his injuries, the young master seemed gentle, but most of the time he was gloomy and unstable. This time the injury was not healed and he insisted on returning to Yixian County early, leaving the prince helpless. He Lianpu changed the route to Qiyun Mountain and came to Yi County. However, he did not follow Qinjiagou, but temporarily settled in Nanhu Academy in Hongcun. He Lianpu avoided Tachuan Academy because he didn''t want anyone to find out about Qin Chi. It can be said that it is well intentioned. Doctor Jing followed to Qinjiagou. It''s just that people live in a courtyard in the mountains. The courtyard is about a mile away from the village. The villagers only thought it was built by Orion, but in fact it was the foothold of Qin Chi''s secret guard. Had a pleasant night. Qin Chi looked refreshed the next day. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! I went to the yard early in the morning to bask in the warm sun. The position where I was standing happened to be at an angle that I could see when I opened the door to the fourth room. The first time Song Xiu stood up, he saw a living Qin Chi, standing in the courtyard with his hands behind his back in a clear and graceful manner. He screamed and shrank back into the door. Then, Song Jin saw Qin Chi turning around unconsciously and heading to the main room. Song Jin glanced at the door of the fourth room. There was reason to suspect that Qin Chi did it on purpose, and then Song Jin continued to take the basin to the kitchen to scoop hot water. Qin Chi saw this and came over to help, "Madam, just let me do the heavy work." "This life is not heavy." When he was not at home, she came by herself. Song Jin was not embarrassed to ask others to wash his face. Song Xiu looked over and saw Qin Chi helping Song Jin, and Song Xiu happened to be holding a washbasin in his hand. Or should she help Qin Mingsong get hot water? This made Song Xiu feel a little uncomfortable. "Xiu''er, what were you screaming just now?" Qin Mingsong slept a little late last night. Therefore, I woke up a little late this morning and was awakened by Song Xiu''s scream. Song Xiu turned around and threw herself into Qin Mingsong''s arms, stretched out her pink arms around his neck, and said coquettishly: "Husband, can you help me get the hot water for washing my face?" Qin Mingsong felt a little hot in his heart. In the past, someone would prepare it for him, so he hardly had to do any work at home. Qin Mingsong carried the basin to fetch water. Song Jin and Qin Chi were very surprised when they saw it. Qin Mingsong still had a bad look on Song Jin, and looked at Qin Chi with suspicion. After all, Song Xiu was so frightened that she fainted when she saw him. When asked about the reasons for Song embroidery, the answer is always vague. "Dalang, let''s talk later?" Qin Mingsong spoke first. Qin Chi didn''t care, "Okay." He scooped hot water out of the pot and walked out of the kitchen. Song Jin followed behind, "Will he cause trouble for my husband?" "Oh, am I afraid that he will cause trouble?" Qin Chi didn''t take Qin Mingsong to heart at all, "I can''t do anything to him due to blood ties, but if I suffer a loss, I can just fight back." "Your Majesty, what you said makes sense." Song Jin found that his words spoke to her heart. The two of them were about to wash up and wipe their faces together in the room when Old Liu''s furious roar came from outside: "Little Song! You bitch, where did you die so early in the morning? You actually want my son to serve you, get out of here!" The roar shocked the entire Qin family. Song Jin shuddered inexplicably. Qin Chi handed the twisted facekerchief to Song Jin, "Don''t worry about it. Just wipe your face quickly. Doctor Jing will be here today." "Is your husband sick?" Song Jin endured the whole night without asking. Chapter 89 she is jealous of me Chapter 89 She is jealous of me The smell of medicine on Qin Chi''s body was very light, but Song Jin could still smell it, which was in line with her previous guess. He saw Qin Chi giving him a confused look. Song Jin thought for a while and explained: "I smell a faint smell of medicine. I''m not sure whether it''s on me or on you. I heard you said that Dr. Jing will be here, so I will ask more." "It was a minor injury, but it''s no longer serious." There were some things that Qin Chi couldn''t tell her, so he turned his gaze to her bulging belly, "Doctor Jing once said that the lady may be pregnant with twins. I specifically asked him to take your pulse." "Really?" Song Jin was surprised. "If they are really twins, I hope you can take good care of them at home and stop going to the pharmacy." It sounds good to be pregnant with twins. But Doctor Jing also said there would be some danger. It is slightly more dangerous than those who are pregnant with a single child. Song Jin has taken good care of her fetus and minimized the number of trips to the pharmacy. In the days since Qin Mingsong came back, she didn''t want to see him, so she went to the pharmacy every day. Qin Chi felt happy when he saw her touching her belly tenderly with her eyebrows on her face, "I''ll take you to see someone tomorrow." "Meeting whom?" Song Jinfeng raised her eyes slightly. Qin Chi gave it up and said, "He is a very important relative, from my maternal grandfather''s family." Song Jin''s lips parted slightly in surprise, "Didn''t you tell me about the accident? Is there anyone who survived by chance? Then why haven''t you come to see your mother for so many years..." "I''m not a liar, don''t think too much." Qin Chi took the facekerchief from her hand and hung it up to dry by the wall. The excitement outside continues. The two of them pretended not to hear, and they went out hand in hand during breakfast. The Qin family finished breakfast. Qin Mingsong motioned to Qin Chi to follow him out of Qin''s house. They both strolled to the stream in the village. Qin Mingsong called Qin Chi out because he wanted to have a few words in private. Song Xiu fainted when she saw Qin Chi. There must be a reason for this. It was probably when he was not at home. What kind of bad things did Qin Chi do? "Da Lang, do you know what happened at home recently?" Qin Mingsong spoke with a serious face. Qin Chi seemed to have expected what Qin Mingsong wanted to say, and said calmly: "I also talked about what happened at home last night. This made me have a question in my heart. I wonder if my uncle can answer it for me. ? "You tell me first." Qin Mingsong turned to look at Qin Chi. Qin Chi said calmly: "I want to know when I offended my aunt, why is she always looking forward to my death? My father just brought back a safe letter from me, and she shouted that it was impossible, life and death Made myself faint." "What do you mean by that?" Qin Chi looked like he was begging for answers, which made Qin Mingsong frown. But Qin Chi asked first, and it seemed like Song Xiu was wrong. Qin Chi turned to look at the stream and said in a calm voice: "I know my uncle can understand what I mean. I also asked my wife this question, and she said..." There was a pretense of pause. Qin Chi turned around and said with a faint smile: "My aunt is jealous that I am more promising than my uncle." "That''s nonsense!" The coolness that Qin Mingsong maintained almost collapsed. After not paying attention to him for several years, this eldest nephew became more and more difficult for him to suppress. He knew better than anyone that Qin Chi had a high talent for reading. It is rare for him to be able to remember 70% to 80% of a book after reading it three or four times. However, when Qin Chi was very young, he only needed to read the book once or twice before he could write it all down from memory. The family only has so much money. It is difficult for two scholars to pass the imperial examination. There was no way he would pass up this opportunity. For this reason, Qin Mingsong spent a lot of time in front of Mr. Liu, worrying about Qin Chi''s health, which made Mr. Liu feel that spending money on Qin Chi was wasted. It doesn''t matter how good your reading talent is. He won''t live long, and he won''t be able to make a living. Only he, Qin Mingsong, can lead the Qin family to change families. Of course, he did this in a very cryptic manner and only talked to Mr. Liu in private. Even Mr. Liu himself couldn''t explain why, and thought that his younger son was kind-hearted and worried about Qin Chi''s health. In fact, Qin Mingsong didn''t know. The Qin family really didn''t know how petty he was playing, especially since he was not very young at the time, but one time he was overheard by Qin Chi, who was only seven years old that year. Qin Chi didn''t fully understand it at that time. I just think my uncle''s words are strange. Every word is kind, but every word is worried about him. But why did Grandma get more and more annoyed as she listened, and later she even refused to pay for him to go to school from her employer. When he grew up, Qin Chi naturally understood those little tricks. From that time on, Qin Chi didn''t like this uncle who loved reading. He only secretly told Mr. Li about this matter and did not mention it to anyone else. The conversation between the two uncles and nephews naturally came to nothing. When Qin Chi returned home, he saw a carriage in front of the door. In the main room. Except for Song Xiu, everyone from the Qin family gathered here, waiting for Doctor Jing to take Song Jin''s pulse. All of them have bright eyes. Old Qin was so excited that he rubbed his hands together. Even Mr. Liu''s old face turned into a chrysanthemum with a smile. Even before Dr. Jing said they were twins, they all thought they were twins. Song Jin was looking forward to it. Just waiting for Dr. Jing to tell me the results. "Change to the other wrist." Doctor Jing picked up the handkerchief covering Song Jin''s wrist, covered Song Jin''s other wrist, and stretched out **** to touch it again. The surroundings are quiet and you can hear a pin drop. After a long while, he said with a smile: "Congratulations, it''s twins." The adult has not yet responded. The children watching were already cheering. "Wow!" "That''s true!" "Sister-in-law is pregnant with two babies." "Yes, yes, just like me and Wulang." The children''s childlike words infected the adults, who all laughed with joy. Old man Qin asked old Mrs. Liu to go back to the house and wrapped a red envelope for Doctor Jing. Li also gave a red envelope in private. Doctor Jing accepted it happily. Xiao Liu looked at Song Jin''s bulging belly and said happily: "Doctor Jing doesn''t tell me, I haven''t noticed yet. When I was pregnant with Silang and Wulang this month, my belly was bigger than yours." It''s really hard to see the twins. The reason is that the weather is getting colder, so he wears more clothes, and Song Jin wears loose clothes. Only a doctor like Dr. Jing who has been practicing medicine for decades can vaguely see it. When Qin Chi came in. Everyone congratulated him one after another, and Qin Chi was also happy. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi immediately made a decision and said: "Let''s prepare the table tonight so that everyone can be happy. Then I will prepare a jar of good wine for my grandfather when he comes back. My second uncle and third uncle will also have a sip." He immediately took out ten taels of silver ingots. Let the adults in the family go to the township market to buy ingredients. Qin Chi''s move made everyone happy. Wait for Mr. Qin to harness the carriage. Song Jin followed out again and gave Qin Laoer money to buy two roast chickens. "I promised a few children at home to treat them to roast chicken today." "The elder man''s wife is interested." Qin Laoer smiled the most happily. Qin Laosan joked: "No wonder the second brother is laughing so happily. This roast chicken will be given to the little one in the family, and most of it will fall into the mouths of those little monkeys in his family. With Erya''s little person, at most Just take a chicken leg. "I agree, if my third brother is not convinced, I will quickly find a wife to have more children." Qin Laoer bowed to his brother with a weird look Qin Laosan smiled and raised his fist to hit someone. This time it was three brothers who went shopping. When leaving. "It''s not good! It''s not good!" The person running back from a distance was Sanlang, "Uncle! Dad, third uncle! My younger uncle was entangled by the Chen family''s sister by the stream!" "What?" Qin Laoer was shocked. Qin Laosan was not angry, "This is all nonsense. Do you want to take care of it, brother?" Boss Qin said: "Tell mother and the fourth brother and sister to help the fourth child. We have to rush to the township market as soon as possible. If we are late, we won''t have anything good to buy." "Okay, Sanlang, go and talk to your grandma and aunt." Qin Laosan urged Sanlang to go into the yard and call someone. Saburo blinked and understood immediately. He repeated what he had just said to the yard. The next moment, two people ran out of the house. One is the old Liu family and the other is Song Xiu. Song Xiu was no longer weak now, picked up the hem of her skirt and ran quickly towards the stream. Old Liu followed behind, cursing and yelling that the daughter of the old Chen family was shameless and so on. Song Jin saw this situation. Don''t think about it, it will be a mess again later. "Ah Jin, come to my room and talk with me." Mrs. Li stood in front of the big room door and waved to Song Jin. Song Jin turned around and walked towards her with a smile. Doctor Jing followed Qin Chi into the room. After checking Qin Chi''s wound, he applied medicine and tied it with a clean cloth. Doctor Jing couldn''t help but warned: "Young master, please pay attention to rest and don''t get wet." "knew." Qin Chi replied with a good attitude, "My family will go out tonight when it gets dark. Mr. Jing, please follow me, just in case." Doctor Jing responded respectfully. There are four people in the big house, two are sick and one is pregnant. Only Boss Qin is healthy. Although someone will protect him when he goes out at night, having a doctor with him can make people feel more at ease. Qin Chi was most worried about Li''s health. Qin Chi had not yet mentioned the matter of going to see his uncle to Mrs. Li. After Dr. Jing went out, he leisurely went to find Mrs. Li and Song Jin. Standing at the door of my parents'' house. Subtle voices were heard inside the house. Both the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law spoke very lowly, and it was difficult to hear clearly unless you listened carefully. Qin Chi raised his hand and knocked gently on the door. "Tuk-tuk." "Who is it?" Li''s voice came out. "Mom, it''s me." Qin Chi responded loudly. Li Shi said happily: "Are you looking for your wife so soon? Come in, the door is unlocked." Qin Chi pushed the door open and went in. At a glance, he saw a lot of children''s clothes laid out in front of his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, all made by Li in his spare time. Seeing Qin Chi looking over, Mrs. Li said with a smile: "When I made it, my mother didn''t know that A Jin was pregnant with twins, so she just prepared one copy. Now I have to prepare another one." "Thank you for your hard work, mother." Qin Chi didn''t want his mother to work hard. I once asked her not to embroider, saying that she could afford to support her family. But Li refused. Song Jin raised his eyes and looked at Qin Chi, feeling that he would not just come here. Sure enough, the next moment he heard Qin Chi say: "Mom, uncle is here." As soon as these words came out, Li''s eyes widened in shock. The child''s bellyband in his hand was so shocked that it fell to the ground. Li grabbed Qin Chi''s arm and said, "Chi''er, what did you just say?" "My uncle is here. He is now staying at Nanhu Academy in Hongcun." Qin Chi said again. Li''s tears fell like beads. It''s quiet, as beautiful as pear blossoms with rain. That night night fell. Everyone in the other three rooms of the Qin family fell asleep, and they slept very peacefully, as if they were sleeping soundly like this. It was during the dinner table of food and wine that Qin Chi asked the secret guard to administer the tranquilizing medicine. It was configured by Dr. Jing and will not affect children. The whole family went out together. Two carriages came to pick up the family, and there was a secret guard waiting outside the village. (End of chapter) Chapter 90 meet Chapter 90 Meeting Qin Chi and Song Jin were riding in a carriage. There were quilts and a fixed charcoal stove in the carriage to keep the small space warm. Qin Chi still wrapped Song Jin in the quilt. Song Jin asked: "Where''s my mother?" "Same as here." Qin Chi put his hand over the charcoal stove to test the temperature, "Don''t you have any doubts in your mind?" "No." Song Jin smiled and lowered his head. From the moment he stepped out of Qin''s house, Song Jin paid attention to every step, always caring, fearing that he would make a mistake if he was not careful. The carriage that came to pick them up was nothing, but the **** made no sound when walking, and it was obvious at a glance that they were well-trained. Song Jin felt a little uneasy. Qin Chi added a few pieces of charcoal to the stove, and then looked at Song Jin with questioning eyes, "Madam, do you really have nothing to ask?" "I will listen to whatever your husband wants to say," Song Jin said warmly. Qin Chi stared at her deeply. This answer cannot be wrong. Be gentle and submissive, and regard your husband as your heaven. She is a qualified wife in the eyes of today''s people. If he hadn''t been exposed to Song Jin''s other side, Qin Chi would not have discovered that there was always a wall built around her, blocking everyone outside the wall, including his husband. I thought the relationship would improve after he escaped death. But it seems to be an illusion! This made Qin Chi feel inexplicably irritable. Under the night. The carriage stopped by a lake. The family got off the carriage and boarded a large ship. The cabin is luxuriously furnished, with beautifully carved tables, chairs, and coffee tables, all of which are noble. Several lotus candlesticks adorn the interior, making the interior look like daylight. An attendant led a family of four to sit down. Serve hot tea and snacks. Moreover, the waiter was very attentive. What he brought to Song Jin was not tea, but warm goat''s milk, which had the mutton smell removed and probably added sugar. It was quite delicious. After a while. A fair-faced and beardless male waiter came out of the room and whispered a few words to Mrs. Li. Li was taken away alone. The male waiter''s clothing was obviously more exquisite and delicate than the waiter serving tea and snacks, and his words and deeds were humble and moderate. As the saying goes, to testify to the depth of a person''s life experience, you can first observe the subordinates and followers around him. The larger the family, the stricter it is in running the family, and the servants trained will be extraordinary. Because people without any ability will not be reused by their masters. Song Jin faintly heard suppressed crying coming from inside. You can tell it belongs to Li. No fear was heard, confirming that the people inside were indeed relatives. Song Jin, the daughter-in-law, can still sit still. Boss Qin can''t do it. He suddenly wanted to rush into the inner room, but Qin Chi stopped him in time, "Don''t worry, Dad. My uncle and mother haven''t seen each other for nearly twenty years. It''s normal to be a little excited. Just wait for her to cry for a while." "I''m worried about your mother''s health." Boss Qin calmed down a little after his son stopped him like this. Qin Chi''s eyes were filled with worry, but on the surface he was calm and casual, "Dr. Jing is here, everything will be fine." "Then I''ll wait." Boss Qin was sitting on pins and needles. Song Jin sat quietly aside without saying a word. If given a choice, Song Jin would rather stay in Qinjiagou than come here to witness Li''s extraordinary identity. Sometimes people die faster if they know more. As it is now. Song Jin knew about this. If she wants to leave the Qin family in the future, she won''t be able to do so. Li''s status is extraordinary, but she is married to a mountain villager. Even her relatives dare not recognize her openly. There must be something serious about this. It is not difficult to smell the hidden dangers. Don''t say that she was making random guesses. If there was no danger, there would be no need for Li and Qin Chi to hide and live in poverty for ten years. The more he thought about this, the more worried Song Jin became. The case of her Song family has not yet been solved, her family members have not been found, and the great revenge has not been avenged! I really dont know if its a blessing or a curse? About two quarters of an hour passed. The male attendant stepped out, opened the bead curtain, and walked out of a noble man, followed by Mr. Li with red eyes. "uncle." Qin Chi stood up and saluted. Boss Qin stood up, but his eyes glanced at Li. He was relieved to see that she had cried but did not faint. No one else knows what the siblings said. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! No sensible person would ask. He Lianpu looked at Boss Qin critically. A simple and honest village man, there is nothing to be said about him, but this man married his sister who is both talented and beautiful. No matter how you look at him, he is not worthy of her. "Brother-in-law?" He Lianpu greeted. "Hey, I''m here." Boss Qin responded readily. The whole place fell silent for a moment. Song Jin quickly lowered his head, picked up the goat milk on the tea table, took a sip and squeezed it. Otherwise, she was afraid that she would laugh. Those who dont know are fearless. Qin Chi didn''t think there was anything wrong, his father just had such a temper, and Li Shi gave Boss Qin an angry look, but didn''t say anything more. He Lianpu finally understood. This ordinary-looking man was protected by his sister and nephew. He Lianpu''s eyes moved to Song Jin who was standing aside. When he saw Song Jin''s face clearly, he couldn''t help but feel dazed for a moment. I had known that my nephew''s new wife was well-bred and extremely beautiful. After hearing the news, Helian Pu laughed it off. It wasn''t that he looked down on a woman from a Huizhou merchant family. He Lianpu had seen quite a few ladies raised in the capital''s famous and scholarly homes, and none of them dared to call them stunning. I just felt that the person who sent the message was exaggerating. Now it seems that it was not written randomly. In terms of appearance, he is barely worthy of his nephew, but his family background is far different, but when he thinks of his sister marrying a farmer and his nephew marrying a merchant girl, it doesn''t feel out of place. When Qin Chi saw him looking at Song Jin, he took the initiative to introduce him: "Uncle, this is my wife, Mrs. Song." "I met my uncle." Song Jin stepped forward and bowed. He Lianpu raised his hand to signal her to get up, "There is no common courtesy in the family, so there is no need to do this." Then He Lianpu gave Song Jin a red envelope for meeting him, saying that it was the first time they met, and it was a meeting gift from his elders, which Song Jin couldn''t accept without accepting it. When I took it, I noticed that the red seal was very thick. Next, He Lianpu and Boss Qin chatted, while Song Jin quietly sat next to Qin Chi as a decoration. Song Jin only found out today that Boss Qin was not simple either. When He Lian Pu made it clear that he had an extraordinary background, marrying his sister would be a step into the sky. However, Boss Qin looked magnanimous and was not overjoyed at all. He treated He Lian Pu seriously as his brother-in-law. Its almost like visiting relatives in the countryside. This made Helian Pu''s favorable impression of him rise a lot. Being ordinary is nothing, and ordinary people don''t mind. What they hate most are greedy villains who follow others'' influence. The lake view at night is picturesque. A large boat was far away from the lake and stopped in the middle of the lake. The moonlight is reflected in the deep water surface, which is sparkling and like stars, quiet and mysterious. When the cool breeze blows, you can still hear the wind chimes on the bow of the boat swaying, which is beautiful and melodious. Chapter 91 Husband and wife talk at night, talk about it Chapter 91 The couple talk at night, talk about it Before dawn. The Dafang family returned to Qinjiagou without disturbing anyone, as if they had never been out. The people who escorted them back quickly hid their whereabouts. Song Jin not only received a big red envelope. When I came back, there was an extra box of jewelry. She handed the box to Qin Chi. Qin Chi asked in confusion: "What can you do for me?" "Keep it for you, I''m afraid of losing it." Song Jin thrust the box into Qin Chi''s hand, "Let me keep it, I don''t know when it was stolen." Qin Chi felt embarrassed. Is this a knock on him? Qin Chi stuffed the box back into Song Jin''s hand, "My uncle gave it to you. As long as you didn''t throw it away on your own initiative, no one would blame you." Song Jinqiu''s watery eyes raised slightly, then quickly lowered his head, and then opened the red seal. "There are ten thousand taels of silver notes in it, can I have it?" Song Jin asked again in a low voice. Qin Chi asked back: "You are my wife, why can''t you have me?" When he asked this question, he stared at Song Jin closely, as if waiting for her answer. Song Jin knew something was wrong, "Sorry, I was tired and confused and asked something I shouldn''t have asked." Just think about this. Asking this can make people think too much. Song Jin thought their relationship as husband and wife was tacitly understood, and they lived together as partners, but recent developments confused her. Qin Chi doubted her, but did not avoid her. The attitude is getting weirder and weirder. This made Song Jin feel slightly uncomfortable. Song Jin put the banknotes and jewelry box into the box and locked it. He could leave these to his children in the future, and there was nothing wrong with them. Qin Chi took off his shoes and went to bed, "Aren''t you curious about my uncle''s identity?" "Not curious." Song Jin got up and returned to the bed, took off her coat, got into bed and got into bed. Qin Chi followed and lay next to her, "Are you scared or worried about something?" Song Jin was silent for a long time after hearing this. Just when Qin Chi thought she had fallen asleep, she suddenly spoke again: "Do you know the origins of Song Xiu and me?" Qin Chi sighed in his heart. She is indeed a keen little lady! At this time, it would be a lie to say that he didn''t know, so Qin Chi admitted generously, "I knew it not long after you and I got married." This answer made Song Jin suddenly open his eyes. With the dim light, she looked sideways at him, and in the dimness she could only see the perfect outline of his face. "You mean not long after we got married? Wasn''t it last month?" Song Jin originally guessed that Qin Chi''s change of attitude last month was because he knew her origins. Not really? Qin Chi turned over and lay on his side, facing Song Jin. The light was too dim, making the person in front of me look hazy. But you can clearly smell the other person''s breath, which is a familiar and reassuring feeling. Qin Chi slowly closed his eyes. He stretched out one hand, let Song Jin pillow rest on it, and then moved it closer to him, "Grandpa arranged for someone to protect me. You can find out your background within a few days of marrying me." Song Jin felt his heart pounding. A little faster than usual. After taking a deep breath to calm down, Song Jin asked in a low voice, "Don''t you mind?" "If I cared you wouldn''t be here." Qin Chi gently comforted her, indicating that it was time for her to rest, "Go to sleep, you are my Qin Qian''s wife now and in the future." Song Jin grabbed the quilt and tightened his fingers. It revealed her inner unrest at the moment. For a moment, she wanted to ask him why he had rummaged through her trunk last month. But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back. First, there is no evidence to prove that he did it. Asking questions based on mere guesses would make her look unreasonable. Song Jin closed her eyes and asked softly: "Someone checked my box twice last month. Does your husband know who it is?" Qin Chi''s comforting movements froze. Does he dare to be himself? But he knew that she was suspicious. If some things were not explained clearly, unnecessary misunderstandings could easily occur. "It was my people who did it." Qin Chi answered vaguely, and immediately changed the subject, "It''s no wonder that the people who secretly protected me are responsible for this. They suspected that someone wanted to kill me on the ninth day of October, and Song Xiu''s whereabouts Particularly suspicious." This is nonsense! But the date that the ghost pulled out is quite scary. Song Jin didn''t dare to ask any more questions. It was also at this time that Song Jin realized that someone had been secretly protecting Qin Chi. But Song Xiu''s malice was discovered by even her, let alone Qin Chi. Its hard for people not to doubt it. No wonder Qin Chi was so indifferent last month. He showed restraint by not killing her and Song Xiu. Song Jin was secretly shocked. Fortunately, she didn''t do anything to the Qin family. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Thinking back to the past, and thinking about her going to Fucheng to kill Second Master Zeng... The more Song Jin thought about it, the more depressed he became. Based on what she was shown now, it was very easy for someone to deal with a powerless woman. What''s more, those powerful people will not allow any suspicious people to appear around their homes. Even if you stay, you will be under the surveillance of the other party. So, maybe others know better than she does about the secrets she thinks she hides. Qin Chi did not miss Song Jin''s gradually heavier breathing and her tense body, all of which betrayed her inner peace. The lady is smart. Through what I saw and heard tonight, I finally saw my situation clearly. It was Qin Chi''s intention to take Song Jin to see He Lianpu. Song Jin built a high wall to outsiders just to keep his own secret. What if this secret is no longer a secret in front of him? Waited for a while. Song Jin didn''t wait any longer to speak. Qin Chi was as steady as a mountain, hugged his wife and fell asleep... Early the next morning. The old Qin family found that Qin Chi and his wife were sleeping in. In fact, Li didn''t wake up either, but Boss Qin got up as usual, took the basin to get hot water, and took breakfast back to the room to eat, so he easily covered up for Li. "What''s wrong with Mr. and Mrs. Dalang?" Xiao Liu was very surprised, "It''s rare to see two people sleeping in. It''s been cold these days, and I don''t want to get up." "Mom! My uncle and aunt are not getting up either." Sanlang was brushing his teeth with a willow branch and pointed to the closed door of the fourth room. Xiao Liu wanted to spit, she must have lost control last night again, but then she realized that it was Sanlang who was talking to her, and then she changed her words and said with a smile: "What do you, a little kid, know about adult matters?" "Why don''t I understand? I know everything." Saburo retorted unconvinced. Suddenly, Erlang hit him on the back of the head. Erlang hit the nail on the head and said, "Have you understood all the Three Character Classic taught by Mr.?" Saburo was speechless. Qin Laosan next to him happened to hear it and laughed happily. Qin Laoer wanted to beat his son with a willow stick, "I have been going to school for three years, and I haven''t even learned the Three-Character Sutra of Enlightenment. Da Lang''s efforts have been wasted." "Dad! This is not what I thought." Sanlang quickly rinsed his mouth and ran away. Qin Laoer asked angrily: "If you didn''t think about it, then who did?" "It''s because I don''t want to remember the Three-Character Sutra! I''ve been chanting it every day, but it still won''t let me remember it. What can I do?" "Okay, you little boy, stop for me!" Early in the morning there was a lot of excitement in the yard. At this time, someone came from outside the Qin family. It was a boy in his early ten years who came to Song Jin saying that he had something to do. The Qin family asked who he was. "I''m from Jifang Pharmacy. My name is Lou Ruhan." Lou Ruhan was sweating profusely when he came. He must have been running in a hurry. It was such a cold day and I was sweating all over. You could tell at a glance how anxious I was. Everyone knew that there might be something wrong with the medicine shop, so they asked Qin Daya to call someone. (End of chapter) Chapter 92 Huimin Pharmacy Chapter 92 Huimin Pharmacy When Qin Daya went to call Song Jin, he saw Qin Chi opening the door before he could call anyone. "Brother, someone from the drug store said they are looking for my sister-in-law." Qin Yatou wanted to poke her head into the house. Qin Chi blocked her without leaving a trace, turned around and closed the door, "I understand, it''s not convenient for your sister-in-law to see guests at the moment." In fact, people are not awake yet. What big deal can a drug store do? So Qin Chi came to the hall to see Lou Ruhan. Lou Ruhan looked behind Qin Chi, but did not see Song Jin, "Qin Tong is born well." "What happened at the drug store?" Qin Chi asked directly. Lou Ruhan was hesitant to say anything, but after seeing Qin Chi''s oppressive eyes, he struggled in his heart and said, "The shopkeeper told me that I need to tell Mrs. Song personally about this matter." His tongue rolled up and he almost called out his boss. Shopkeeper Jin had told her that she could not be called Song Jindong''s family outside. To the outside world, she was just a worker doing odd jobs in the drug store. Qin Chi walked to the chair, turned around and sat down. Seeing that the young man was obviously hesitant but gritted his teeth, he didn''t bother him and said, "Is the matter urgent? Your boss is pregnant, and the doctor told her not to work too hard. People havent woken up yet. "No, it''s not very urgent." Lou Ruhan recalled what shopkeeper Jin said, "I''ll wait here for my boss to wake up" Halfway through his words, he paused for a moment. Qin Chi noticed the annoyance on the young man''s face, "No need to worry about it, I know everything about your boss." Hearing this, Lou Ruhan breathed a sigh of relief. This man is the husband-in-law of his employer, so its not surprising that he knows about his employers affairs. A young man is a young man after all, and Qin Chi tricked him in just a few words, and even revealed the purpose of his trip. A deputy envoy from Huimin Pharmacy came to Yi County. It is said that I need to buy a batch of medicinal materials. Jifang is a small medicine shop, and 99% of the medicinal materials it concocts are purchased by Shun''an. I originally didn''t want to participate, but the deputy envoy somehow learned that Jifang''s medicinal materials are of good quality and relatively cheap. People came to Jifang Pharmacy. Ask the medicine boy to bring out various medicinal materials. Then the deputy envoy inspected it and found that the medicinal materials were indeed better, so he directly said that he wanted to buy them. The most annoying thing was that the price given by the other party was very low, and the quantity of medicinal materials they even proposed to purchase far exceeded the quantity stored in the pharmacy. Shopkeeper Jin made it clear that the shop was small and did not have such a large amount of inventory. But that person clearly came here to cause trouble. The drug store is required to prepare the medicinal materials within three days. This is intended to force buying and selling. This matter was no longer something that shopkeeper Jin could solve, so he arranged for someone to notify Song Jin. Qin Chi asked: "Your manager Xing can''t solve it?" "Manager Xing went to Fucheng, but he hasn''t come back yet." There is still the last batch of medicinal materials collected in the medicine fields, and these medicine fields are scattered in Fucheng. During this period, Xing Lun and Zhou Wei were too busy to touch the ground. No one is in Yi County. Jin Ling is usually responsible for sitting at the counter, recording various accounts, and taking charge of the finances. Jin Ling really can''t solve this kind of problem. Even though Qin Chi said that he would tell Song Jin about this matter, Lou Ruhan still insisted on waiting for Song Jin to wake up and see him, and said that Song Jin might ask him to take it back to Shopkeeper Jin. Qin Chi let him go. Qin Daya brought a bowl of water for scented tea. After Lou Ruhan drank, he sat in the main room and waited for others. Xiao Liu came up to Lou Ruhan and asked, "Brother, does the drug store still accept people?" "Auntie, I didn''t hear the shopkeeper say he wanted to hire someone." Lou Ruhan replied politely. Xiao Liu looked regretful, "Still not." Lou Ruhan nodded repeatedly. Outside the yard, Qin Laoer shouted: "Daughter-in-law, what are you doing? The sun is about to burn your butt. Why don''t you go get the hatchet and the basket and go up the mountain." "Okay, okay, come here, I owe you my family." Mrs. Liu quickly went to the woodshed to find a hatchet, and then carried a large basket on her back. Even Qin Daya carried one on her back. Then he went up the mountain to chop firewood with Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San. The weather will get colder and colder. The home needs to prepare firewood for the winter. Qin Chi took a bun from the pot in the kitchen and ate it. Then he went back to the house and found that Song Jin had woken up and got dressed. "Why don''t you sleep longer, madam?" "I usually get up early." Song Jin answered as if nothing had happened. If you pay careful attention, you will find that Song Jin avoids eye contact with Qin Chi. Last night, a lot of things were revealed. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin didn''t know how to get along with Qin Chi. Qin Chi waited for Song Jin to finish washing up, and then he began to say: "A boy from Jifang Pharmacy came and said that a deputy envoy from the pharmacy came yesterday and specified that he wanted to buy a batch of medicinal materials at a low price from the pharmacy, but the pharmacy did not have enough storage capacity. , Shopkeeper Jin sent someone to give you an idea." Song Jin asked: "Which pharmacy is it from?" "Huimin Pharmacy." As far as Song Jin knew, there were several pharmacies in Daxia Dynasty. The more famous ones are the Royal Pharmacy, Herbal Medicine Library and Huimin Pharmacy. Two pharmacies in front. The Imperial Pharmacy was affiliated to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and purchased medicinal materials for the imperial court. The herbal medicine library is a department under Taiyuan Hospital and is affiliated with the Ministry of Rites. All parts of the country must send the number of medicinal materials to the herbal medicine library according to the variety of Paina, and there will be special imperial doctors to inspect the medicinal materials. These two pharmacies are located in the capital and are out of reach of ordinary people. But Huimin Pharmacy is different. Although its affiliated yamen are still Taiyuan Hospital, they are located in various states and counties. It mainly provides medicines to local poor people and also to soldiers. But after so many years, pharmacies have never delivered free medicine to poor people. Pharmacies occasionally purchase medicinal materials from local pharmacists. But it''s always been your wish. I have never encountered anyone who would buy or sell someone forcefully. It''s just that the government has never been very efficient in doing things. The money allocated by the imperial court to purchase medicinal materials has long been reduced to nothing after layers of corruption by officials. This time I suddenly found Jifang Pharmacy. No matter how I look at it, I feel uneasy. Qin Chi asked: "What do you think, Madam?" "Either there is a disaster somewhere, and the imperial court wants to mobilize the medicinal materials stored in various local pharmacies, but Huizhou cannot provide them, and wants Jifang to help fill the hole." When Song Jin thought of this possibility, a cold look flashed in his eyes, "Either someone wants to use power for personal gain. No matter who it is, someone is eyeing Ji Fang." It stands to reason that the Zeng family just fell. No one would target Jifang so quickly again. After all, Jifang''s medicinal materials are not sold in the Huizhou market. According to Xing Lun, the medicinal materials taken from Shun''an are transported by caravans every month. Otherwise, Song''s medicinal materials are available for sale. The medicine industry in Huizhou Prefecture will not be so peaceful. "Didn''t I mention insect pests to me last time?" Qin Chi poured a cup of warm water and handed it to Song Jin, "I asked someone to inquire. People in several villages in Anqing Mansion are infected with insect diseases, and the disaster is spreading to the surrounding areas." It was Song Jin who reminded him of this insect disease. Qin Chi arranged for people to investigate, and news came from Anqing Mansion. It will probably reach Huizhou Mansion next month. When the disaster started, the local county magistrate did not pay attention to it, and only reported it to the court when the disaster was out of control. (End of chapter) Chapter 93 It’s time for Shun An to change its owner Chapter 93 Its time for Shun An to change his employer The imperial court sent people to provide disaster relief. According to past practice, the government will temporarily mobilize medicinal materials stored in nearby pharmacies, or allocate funds to purchase them from local pharmacists. If the person in charge of the pharmacy cannot provide the medicinal materials and does not do the job well, it is likely to be a serious crime of beheading. In order to save their lives, some people will do whatever it takes to fill the medicine storehouse. For example, under the pretext of requisition by the court, or writing an IOU in the name of purchase, the medicinal materials were taken away but no money was ever given. This kind of thing has happened before. Of course this is just one situation. At the same time, as a businessman, Song Jin also knew some secret operations. Whenever a disaster strikes, there will be a shortage of medicinal materials on the market, and medicine prices will definitely rise. Some businessmen will collude with people in local pharmacies, using the name of the pharmacy, to purchase large quantities of medicinal materials at low prices in advance, then hoard them, and then sell them when the market prices soar. Song Jin discussed this issue. Qin Chi also thought of this possibility, "Leave this matter to me. My wife is pregnant with twins, so it is not appropriate to travel outside." Song Jin finally raised his eyes and looked at Qin Chi intently. I have long been accustomed to solving problems by myself in my past life. Suddenly someone told her to leave the matter to him... Qin Chi was seen as calm and calm by Song Jin, and he looked back at her calmly. "Ms. sir, does Shun''an Trading Company know?" Song Jin suddenly asked this question. Qin Chi was startled, "How come you suddenly ask me this question?" "Don''t you know everything about me? Then you should also know about the cooperation between Jifang and Shun''an." Song Jin had a faint smile in his eyes. Qin Chi is mostly a person who keeps his emotions and anger hidden. Even when it''s visible, it''s what he deliberately wants people to see. But when she mentioned Shun''an, Qin Chi stiffened slightly. This strangeness came and went quickly. But Song Jin noticed it deliberately. Song Jinyi pointed out: "If I ask Shun''an to help, do you think they will help?" "Yes." Qin Chi said deliberately uncertainly. Song Jin asked again: "Then, do you still want to give me money?" "I''ll go talk to Shun''an''s employer about this. It shouldn''t be necessary." Qin Chi felt guilty and embarrassed, but on the surface he was very stable. It is impossible to admit. Otherwise, he knew the other party was his wife, negotiated with her mercilessly, and took advantage of her a lot at the same time. What would she think of him if she knew it was him? To put it in modern terms, it would be social death! Qin Chi guessed that Song Jin somewhat suspected that he was the person behind Shun''an, but he did not necessarily think that he was the boss. The reason is that all his energy is devoted to studying. Where do you have spare time to do business? Doing business is really... too detrimental to his literary temperament! So, Qin Chi decided to change Shun''an''s boss at this moment, "Madam, do you know who Shun''an''s boss is? He has been to our house as a guest before." Under Song Jin''s suspicious gaze. Qin Chi added with a smile: "It''s Meng Qingrui, the second son of the county magistrate''s family, and a good classmate of mine. I will talk to him about the pharmacy later. It''s just that he is unprofitable and can''t afford it early." , Madam, remember to be more careful when doing business with him in the future, so as not to let him take all the benefits. " Who is more ruthless than Qin Chi? He was so cruel that he even scolded himself. The owner of Shun''an Trading Company will be Meng Qingrui from now on! In my wife''s mind, Shun An''s family must be mercenary. Otherwise, she wouldn''t pay part of the benefits every time she asked Shun''an for help. "I''m going to talk to Meng Qingrui. I might not be back tonight..." Qin Chi is out! He is a bit suspected of running away, of course this is what Qin Chi thinks. After leaving, Qin Chi actually went to see Dr. Jing to change the medicine, and then asked someone to check the pharmacy. He said he was not going back tonight because he wanted to see Helian Pu. Besides, Song Jin waited for Qin Chi to leave, then went out to meet Lou Ruhan. I asked Lou Ruhan and learned that he was deceived by Qin Chi, but he didn''t say anything. To a certain extent, Qin Chi was sure that he was not lying. He knew almost everything about her. What''s more, Qin Chi could find out exactly what happened at the drug store by just asking around. Song Jin said: "You go back and tell Aunt Ling not to worry. Someone will come forward to solve the matter. Afterwards, 30% of the medicinal materials stored in the No. 1 medicine warehouse will be given to Shun''an at the cost price." The medicinal materials in the No. 1 medicinal warehouse are all medicinal materials related to insect diseases. It is difficult to repay favor debts. You can use the profits to pay it off, but it''s better to pay it off sooner. "Master, the young one will go back right now." Lou Ruhan said goodbye to Song Jin and left in a hurry. Regarding whether Qin Chi is the master behind Shun''an? Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin was suspicious. But Qin Chi didn''t admit it, and she didn''t intend to go into details. The most important thing is that with this relationship, Shun''an should be more dedicated in finding the whereabouts of her family. Thinking of his family whose life or death was uncertain, Song Jin felt uncomfortable again. Several months have passed, and still no clue has come through. Song Jin sat quietly for a while and was about to go to the kitchen to have breakfast. As soon as he went out, he saw Qin Mingsong and Song Xiu coming over. Qin Mingsong regained his former coolness. "Sister, is there anything left in the kitchen?" Song Xiu stepped forward with a smile. Song Jin''s smile didn''t reach his eyes and he said, "It''s in the pot." "Sister, can you bring it out for me? My husband and I want to eat in the main room." Song Xiu said deliberately coquettishly. The smile on Song Jin''s face faded. Before Song Jin could open her mouth to say anything, Qin Mingsong frowned, "Xiu''er, how can you instruct your pregnant sister to do things?" "How could I really let my sister come?" Song Xiu took one of Qin Mingsong''s arms and said in a sweet voice, "Husband, please go to the main room and wait. I will go get food right now." After saying this, Song Xiu got into the kitchen. Qin Mingsong stood in front of Song Jin, with the grace of a gentleman, "It''s because Xiu''er is shapeless, I hope you don''t blame me." Song Jin only glanced at Qin Mingsong coldly, said nothing, ignored him and walked forward. Compared to someone like Qin Mingsong who is secretly evil, someone like Song Xiu who is obviously evil is more pleasing to the eye. This shows how much Song Jin dislikes this person. Qin Mingsong stared at Song Jin''s back with such obvious disgust, he would be blind if he couldn''t see it. He was used to seeing women showing kindness to him, but he had never seen anyone like Song Jin who expressed his dislike for him from the beginning to the end. This bad feeling has nothing to do with anyone else. It was directed at him, because Song Jin was not happy with him when they first met, even though she hid it deeply. Qin Mingsong thought about it for a long time. It is true that he and Song Jin have never met, and they have never had any grudges. "What are you looking at, husband?!" Song Xiu''s question was a bit sharp, and there was uncontrollable anger in his eyes. He happily came out with breakfast, but suddenly he saw Qin Mingsong staring at Song Jin''s back in trance! How could we not make Song Xiu jealous? Song Xiu was a stolen husband, so she would inevitably become suspicious. Qin Mingsong said displeased: "How is it appropriate to shout inexplicably?" Seeing that Qin Mingsong was angry, Song Xiu immediately fell silent. Qin Mingsong rolled up his sleeves and walked towards the main room. Song Xiu hurriedly followed up with the food in hand. As he kept up, he said in a coquettish voice: "Husband, don''t be angry. It was Xiu''er who was wrong just now... It''s all because Xiu''er likes you too much. She couldn''t help but feel jealous when she saw you looking at your sister. Already Song Xiu is experienced in coaxing men. Chapter 94 Song Jin knows how to disgust people Chapter 94 Song Jin knows how to disgust people When Song Jin entered the room, she heard Song Xiu''s discordant and coaxing voice. When facing her, Song Xiu was arrogant. Facing Qin Mingsong, he looked like he was worthless to please. People with mental illnesses are not as powerful as her. After entering the house, Song Jin was thinking about the drug store again, but he was pregnant and could not go there in person. I couldn''t just sit around at home, so I took the clothes I changed out to wash, and as soon as they were dried in the corner of the yard, I saw a good show. Qin Mingsong is going to the academy today. It was Old Man Qin who drove him off. But before Qin Mingsong went out. Song Xiu grabbed his sleeve and said with tears in her eyes: "Husband, wouldn''t it be good if I went to Fucheng with you? I''ll rent a yard near the academy, just like my sister and the others." I can stay and fly with Qin Mingsong. Not to mention how wonderful it would be without the interruption of other members of the Qin family. Qin Mingsong firmly refused: "Xiu''er, don''t be willful. I went to Fucheng to study. Living in the dormitory is more convenient for studying and communicating with classmates and improving my knowledge." "I, I won''t disturb your study." "You go to Fucheng alone, how can I trust you to live alone? I will also take the imperial examination next year. It is a critical time, how can I be distracted..." When I came back from leave this time, the letter from home came urgently. He had to squeeze in time to catch up on the homework he had missed during this period. Qin Mingsong really put a lot of thought into his studies and was not just pretending. Song Xiu sent Qin Mingsong away from home crying. When Mr. Qin was tying up his car, he didn''t even look at Song Xiu. When they were getting engaged, he thought she was quite normal, a energetic and thoughtful girl, but he didn''t expect that he had been wrong for most of his life. I was hunting geese all day long but got pecked in the eye by the geese. Old Qin raised his head with a dark face. He was about to reprimand Song Xiu. This man was about to go out, but she was crying like she was going to a funeral. Isn''t it unlucky? Unexpectedly, he raised his head and looked at Song Jin next to him. The eldest lady was so happy that she forced Old Man Qin to hold back his words. Song Jin didn''t mean to watch the show. The yard is so big, and the movement between the two of them is not too small. But there was one thing that Song Jin was curious about. At this time, Mrs. Liu was nowhere to be seen. According to the past, when Qin Mingsong left home to go to the academy, Mrs. Liu would definitely have a bag prepared by Mrs. Liu, and she would also send her good son off in person. Maybe something is holding you back? Sure enough, old man Qin was about to sit sideways on the car''s shaft. "Old man, wait! Wait for me for a moment." It was the voice of old Mr. Liu calling. Old Man Qin frowned, "My son is going to the academy. I didn''t see you there so early in the morning, but you came here now?" "I''m just going to the old blind man''s place, right?" Old Liu handed the three talismans in his hand to Qin Mingsong through the car window like a treasure. Qin Mingsong looked helpless, but did not reach out to pick it up, "Mother, my son doesn''t believe this." "Oh, what nonsense are you talking about? It''s no wonder that these gods and gods are strange. My son is young and energetic and ignorant. No wonder." Old Liu put his hands together and muttered to the air. Words of apology to various gods and goddesses. After finishing reciting, Old Liu handed the talisman to Qin Mingsong. Old Liu blamed Old Man Qin for this matter. The old blind man said that just after the evil spirits were gone, Song Xiu still had residual Yin Qi. She was the one person who disapproved of Old Man Qin calling his son home, but she couldn''t stop him, so she had to find a way to make up for it. "Si''er must listen to mother no matter what happens this time. You have been living with Xiao Song for these few days. What should you do if you get into trouble? The old blind man said that wearing this talisman will keep you safe." Anyway, Mr. Liu firmly believed that Song Xiu was haunted by evil spirits. Song Xiu stood in front of the courtyard gate. When she saw old Mrs. Liu talking about her like this, she was so angry that she almost broke her teeth. This **** old woman must look good to her sooner or later! Old Man Qin didn''t want to waste time here, "Fourth, please take it away so that your mother can feel at ease." "Thank you very much, mother." Qin Mingsong took the talismans and said, "Mom, please pay attention to your health at home and don''t work too much. Also, Xiu''er will be filial to my mother at home for me. If there is any work, let Xiu''er help my mother." " "My fourth son should be filial." Mrs. Liu wiped away the non-existent tears and said with a very moved face, "Mom, listen to Si''er. If there is any work, let your daughter-in-law do it. She will definitely be filial to me, an old woman." The expression on Qin Mingsong''s face froze. He was just talking casually, mother wouldn''t really let Xiu''er do the work, would she? Qin Mingsong raised his head and looked at Song Xiu who was looking at him in front of the courtyard gate. That sad little face made him feel so guilty that he immediately lowered the car curtains. "Dad, you can go!" As soon as Qin Mingsong finished speaking, Old Qin shouted, and the horse pulling the cart stepped forward. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! before the carriage leaves. Old Liu immediately showed off his power to Song Xiu Yaowu, "You bastard, you can use all kinds of tricks to get men to hang out with you all day long, bah!" After finishing speaking, Old Liu walked into the yard. Song Xiu''s face turned blue and white after being scolded. In the past few days, she has tried every means to seduce Qin Mingsong into being unable to leave her. What''s wrong? That''s her man, what''s wrong with being in love with her? Song Xiu glared at Old Liu''s back fiercely, wishing to kill the old pious woman. Suddenly, Song Xiu saw Song Jin next to him. Song Jin was still holding the wooden basin containing clothes. Just standing there made Song Xiu feel extremely embarrassed and annoyed. She felt that Song Jin must be gloating about his misfortune and laughing at her! Song Xiu didn''t want to be laughed at. He snorted at Song Jin and ran towards the room with a bit of chaos. When the door closed, Song Xiu seemed to hear Song Jin''s laughter. In fact, Song Xiu heard it right. Song Jin really smiled. This play was a rare and wonderful play, which made her feel very good. Song Xiu couldn''t have a better time in the coming days. After all, Mrs. Liu wanted to take her son. Sure enough, it didn''t take a while. Old Liu''s loud voice came. Following her came out a large basin of dirty clothes, all of which belonged to Mrs. Liu herself. Old Mrs. Liu went to pat Song Xiu''s door, and it made a banging sound. "Fourth daughter-in-law! Do you get lice in your room? Why don''t you come out and wash my clothes? Fourth son told me to ask you for any work, just because I''m afraid that my old bones will be tired." Song Xiu wanted to pretend to be dead. Mrs. Liu kept banging on the door and scolding her at the door, "If you don''t come out, I will tell Si''er when he comes back to divorce you, an unfilial person!" Squeak. The door opened and Song Xiu gave in. Fetching water from the well in Songxiu. It was not easy to fill the big wooden basin with water. While washing clothes, Song Jin deliberately passed by Song Xiu and walked back and forth several times. He didn''t say a word, but Song Xiu was so angry that he gritted his teeth. After a few words of ridicule, Song Xiu might be able to scold him back. Song Jin''s appearance of watching a play really made Song Xiu so angry that her liver ached. It turns out that the gentle and gentle Song Jin in my memory also knew how to disgust people. Chapter 95 Evil people will be punished by evil people Chapter 95: Evil people have their own trials and tribulations "Song Jin, please come on, I may be your fate today." Song Xiu gritted his teeth and said angrily. Song Jin laughed out loud and said in an extremely gentle tone: "Xiu''er, I just found out today, and I still owe you a thank you. If you hadn''t changed your marriage, I would have been the one washing clothes here. Thank you very much, Xiu''er." After saying the last sentence, Song Jin walked away without looking back. Song Xiu was so angry that he turned blue. For the first time, she had doubts about her marriage change. Did she really do something wrong? Damn sick Yangzi didn''t die, he was also hit by a child. The most annoying thing is that the sick man always protects Song Jin! When he went to study, he had to take Song Jin to the county town to enjoy the blessings, and that useless Li family was also too kind to Song Jin! Why? Why should she do it when Song Jin doesn''t do it? ! The more Song Xiu thought about it, the angrier he became. Suddenly, she stood up, turned over the dirty clothes in the basin, and stepped on them several times as if to vent her anger. Old Mr. Liu who happened to come out saw him clearly. "You bitch, how dare you throw your clothes on the ground and trample on them! This evil intention has finally been exposed. Let me see if I don''t beat you to death today..." Old Mrs. Liu picked up the broom on the side and hit Song Xiu. Song Xiu screamed and started to hide everywhere. One chasing and one escaping. There were only two people, but there was a movement of thousands of troops. Song Jin was watching from under the eaves. Even Mrs. Li was so disturbed by the commotion that she came out of the house. When she saw Song Jin watching the show, she felt funny in her heart. "Come, find a stool and sit down." Mrs. Li brought a wooden stool with a smile. Song Jin hurriedly gave in, "Mom, come sit down, I''ll just stand." The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along well on one side, but on the other side they are in a frenzy, attracting even the neighbors. Soon. Several ladies and aunts came to the entrance of the hospital. One by one, they pointed at Old Liu and Song Xiu in the yard. "Ouch, Mrs. Liu is going to punish her daughter-in-law!" "I saw that Qin Xiucai had not left for long, and Mrs. Liu turned around and bullied his little wife. Aren''t you afraid that he would be annoyed when he comes back next time and learns the truth?" "This little daughter-in-law has tender skin and tender flesh, even Mrs. Liu is willing to lay hands on her!" "Oh, I have lived so long, and I have never seen a daughter-in-law dare to hide. This little daughter-in-law is not worried..." Song Xiu was originally angry. Still thinking about how to make old Mr. Liu unlucky. When he saw outsiders present, he didn''t dare to do anything and quickly acted like his little daughter-in-law was being bullied. This reputation couldn''t be ruined. Originally, she was being chased and hiding, and if she didn''t obediently let her mother-in-law beat and scold her, she would inevitably fall into the trap. Song Xiu gritted his teeth and burst into tears. "Ugh, it''s all my fault for washing clothes too slowly. I accidentally overturned the clothes basin... It wasn''t my mother-in-law who did it. Aunts, please don''t misunderstand my mother-in-law." While Song Xiu was crying, he was doing all kinds of yin and yang to Mr. Liu. At first, Mr. Liu didn''t notice. Later, when she got tired from beating her, she noticed that the women who were watching were looking at her more and more wrongly. Others preached to Mr. Liu. Is Mr. Liu the kind of person who can make people talk? So he started yelling at people with their hands on their hips, scolding them for being too lazy to worry about things. On the contrary, Song Xiu got away and ran to pack up the clothes in the yard, silently, like a hard-working young daughter-in-law, but she shed tears silently while washing the clothes. Not to mention how pitiful he looked. Just like the slave girl in the play who was exploited by the landlord''s family. Two young daughters-in-law really sympathized with her, took the initiative to help Song Xiu pick up her clothes, and even whispered a few words of comfort to her. Seeing this, Mrs. Li said, "You, a concubine, are not a fuel-efficient lamp." "Isn''t this great?" Dog bites dog, a mouth full of hair. Whoever wins and who loses is fun for Song Jin. Mrs. Li looked sideways and saw her daughter-in-law''s gentle smile, but she said such chilling words. Come on, its not a worry-free thing either. After Old Liu drove away the theatergoers, he came to the well again, raised his broom and hit Song Xiu twice. Song Xiu could have hid, but she didn''t know why. Waiting for a gasp from outside. "This Mrs. Liu is a vicious mother-in-law. She lets her daughter-in-law wash a large tub of clothes for her, and she beats her severely while working." "Don''t treat your wife as a human being." "Didn''t you brag about how good you were to your wife before? It turns out this is good." "I didn''t expect Aunt Liu to be such a person..." The old women who should have been driven away poked their heads out of the yard again. Among them, Mrs. Wang was the one who worked hardest to harm the old Liu family. She used to dislike the old Liu family the most in the village. It had been so long since the last fight, and I still felt resentment in my heart. She ran the fastest when she heard that there was a lot of excitement in Lao Qin''s house. Song Jin and Mrs. Li had gone back to the house at some point. There were neighbors outside watching, so it was not suitable for them to watch the show openly and openly. To avoid people gossiping. It should be avoided appropriately. After Old Liu''s reputation in the village today, I''m afraid it will be bad by two or three points. You must know that Old Liu is usually the most face-friendly person. When she gets over it, she will probably be so angry that she can''t sleep. Song Jin was in a particularly good mood this evening. Had a wonderful sleep. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! This is one of the few comfortable days since marrying into the Qin family. Even the depression that the drug store was being targeted suddenly disappeared. The next day, it was still dark. There was another big noise outside. It was Mrs. Liu who knocked on Song Xiu''s door, cursing and asking her to get up and make breakfast. Song Xiu was forced to get up early. Naturally there was another commotion. Old Qin, the only man who can suppress Old Liu, sent Qin Mingsong to Fucheng yesterday, but he didn''t come back so early, so no one stopped Old Liu from acting like a monster. It seems that Song Xiu is not very popular. Among the dozen or so members of the Qin family, no one would turn towards her. Everyone in the Qin family got up early today. It was still dark when I woke up, and there was no light in the east. Normally, they would still be sleeping at this time, but today old Liu was so crazy that no one could sleep. Qin, the three brothers were the first to come out. Plus the gossipy Xiao Liu. Others have woken up and haven''t left the house yet. When Mr. Liu came to the kitchen, he saw Mr. Liu pressing Song Xiu to make breakfast. Song Xiu said no. It doesn''t matter, Mr. Liu can do it. Mrs. Liu taught Song Xiu how to do it step by step. If she couldn''t do it well, she would hit Song Xiu with a broom, causing her to scream in pain. "Let me tell you, Mrs. Song, my son left you at home just to be filial to me. If you are not filial, I will let Si''er divorce you." Mrs. Liu really followed Qin Mingsong''s words to the end. Song Xiu was crying **** the surface. But in my heart, I hated old Mr. Liu very much. Even Qin Mingsong hated her. If he hadn''t pretended to say that when he left home, would Old Liu dare to torture her so excessively? Old Liu punished Song Xiu so much that he did not dare to resist. You cant go wrong making breakfast. One mistake and it''s a broomstick! It''s really a beating! Xiao Liu watched the whole process and was extremely surprised. Lin and Song Jin came over and saw it. The three of them retreated outside the kitchen without entering. Xiao Liu whispered with lingering fear: "I didn''t expect my mother-in-law to punish people so well. You see how capable Song Xiu was before, but now she doesn''t dare to say anything." Lin lowered his head when he heard this. Song Jin noticed something unusual about Lin. Mrs. Lin has obviously experienced these things. Mrs. Liu has good luck with her mother-in-law''s support, but Mrs. Liu doesn''t dare to touch her. Doesn''t it mean that she can only teach Mrs. Lin a lesson? Lin also has to do a lot of housework every day. From morning to night, literally. But most country wives are like this. As both women, Song Jin sympathized with Lin. But now, she is careful even about herself, so how can she help others? All day long, Song Xiu was manipulated by Old Liu. It was not until Old Qin came back in the afternoon that the farce finally stopped. The reason was that Song Xiu was so angry that her lower abdomen hurt. Please come to Qin''s third uncle to take his pulse. It was said that there were signs of suspected tire slip. The third uncle was not good at this and suggested that Old Qin go to the town to ask a doctor. The Qin family hurriedly asked a doctor to give Song Xiu a baby. Old Liu didn''t dare to make trouble anymore. Now I regret it so much that I am afraid that the child will be gone! Song Jin saw Song Xiu lying on the bed and looked at Old Liu with secretly hateful eyes. It will be difficult for the Qin family to calm down in the future! Chapter 96 Doting on concubines and acting like mon Chapter 96 Doting on a Concubine and Becoming a Demon Just as Song Jin guessed. While Song Xiu was lying in bed to nurse her fetus, she immediately became frightened and asked to eat this and that that night. If she doesn''t have it at home, naturally no one will condone her. But Mrs. Liu actually had the patience to kill a hen and make chicken soup for Song Xiu. Song Jin also took a bowl of chicken soup and a large chicken drumstick. Qin Chi came back before dark, and as soon as he came back, he noticed something was wrong with the atmosphere at home. After asking Song Jin and learning what happened, Qin Chi was stunned for a while, then calmed down again, "Madam, please don''t get involved in this matter, let them do whatever they want." "Well, I won''t get involved." If Song Jin wanted to get involved today, he wouldn''t be watching the show. Qin Chi thought about it and said, "Judging from today''s situation, Song Xiu''s two previous faints may also be related to pregnancy. It is estimated that the month was still young at that time, and the third uncle''s pulse was not accurate." This time Song Xiu complained of abdominal pain. The third uncle only said that it was suspected of a tire slip. In fact, it was a bit uncertain, but the town doctor was called in and said that there were indeed signs of tire slippage. Song Jin and Qin Chi looked at each other. After the evil twists and turns, the couple had no moral integrity in their sexual intercourse, and they met the old Mr. Liu again. The child was noisy until now, and Song Xiu thought that she was in good health. No more talk about Song Xiu. Song Jin asked about what was on his mind, "Ms. sir, how are things going at the drug store?" "Meng Qingrui had someone get the deputy drunk at the wine bureau, and he took the opportunity to ask some questions. He said that Prefect Yang asked the pharmacy to purchase a batch of medicinal materials. The ambassador of the pharmacy assigned the matter to him. He is responsible for Yixian County and Qimen..." Huimin Pharmacy has an ambassador in charge and two deputy ambassadors. The ambassador is responsible for She County and Jixi County. Another deputy envoy was in charge of Xiuning and Wuyuan. The deputy envoy who came to Yi County was not very popular in the pharmacy. Qimen and Yi County are remote, and the deputy envoy was not willing to come. He was the housekeeper of Magistrate Yang''s house, so he approached him privately and asked him to have a drink. He mentioned Jifang Pharmacy and that the shopkeeper was the former The servants of the Song family and so on. Song Jin suddenly lowered his eye shadow to cover up the dark light in his eyes, and asked in a normal voice: "Is this the case that Prefect Yang is eyeing Jifang?" "It''s possible, but not likely." Qin Chi has sent people to Fucheng to investigate, but there is no news for a while, "Yang Lingyu comes from a scholarly family, and the children of the family are born with arrogance, let alone a few servants from the Song family, even those who have not yet fallen. The Song family wont take it all seriously. Is there an elder who is a pavilion elder? Song Jin thought deeply about this, "If it''s not him, there aren''t many people who can control the housekeepers in the mansion." Then it can only be the family members of the prefect. Qin Chi also thought about this problem, "We will know when the news from Fucheng comes." "Well, I can only wait." When Song Jin told Qin Chi to take over the matter, he never thought that it would not be solved. At least the second son of the magistrate of Yi County would have no problem dealing with a deputy envoy who was similar to a yamen servant in the pharmacy. Just from this, we can see the benefits of having people in the yamen. Especially for business people. It is difficult to operate without a backer. It was just a small drug store, but it encountered problems one after another as soon as it started to develop. Qin Chi took the needle and thread from Song Jin''s hand and said, "Don''t do any needlework tonight to avoid hurting your eyes." "I''m just passing the time." Song Jin smiled and let him take it away. Qin Chi pretended to have just remembered something, "I heard that the lady has transferred some of the medicinal materials she stored to Shun''an 30% this time. Didn''t I tell you that you don''t need to pay any money?" Song Jin told the truth: "I''m not giving money, I''m returning a favor." Qin Chi suddenly had nothing to say. It is not difficult to investigate the matter of the deputy director of the pharmacy. The main reason is that Fucheng is a bit far away from Yi County, and it takes a while to get back and forth. Wait until the morning of the next day. The news came to Qinjiagou. Qin Chi handed the letter directly to Song Jin. Song Jin hesitated for a moment and then opened it to read. It turned out that it was not Magistrate Yang who was behind this matter, but it was Uncle Zeng''s daughter Zeng who married into the Magistrate''s family who was instigated. The Zeng family collapsed, and the Zeng family''s money began to become tense. Zeng learned from Magistrate Yang that there was an insect infestation in Anqing Prefecture and that there would probably be a shortage of medicinal materials in the future, so she wanted to stock up on a batch of medicinal materials in advance. I just want to do the business of buying low and selling high. Mrs. Zeng would keep an eye on Jifang Pharmacy, and she was a little angry inside. Most of all, she thought it was a soft persimmon. The reason was that Mrs. Zeng returned to her parents'' home and learned that Mr. Zeng''s death seemed to be related to Jifang. His father didn''t know. Who is taking the blame? Zeng, who lived in the back house, was behind the news and did not know that Jifang was already protected by Shun''an Trading Company. If I knew it, I probably wouldn''t be so forceful. "Do you want to publicize this matter? It doesn''t matter if there is no evidence, as long as everyone in the city knows about it." Song Jin did not kill all the Zeng family. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Only two of the culprits died. Finally she showed mercy. When Qin Chi heard Song Jin''s words, he knew the purpose of her move. It didn''t take much effort to deal with a concubine. As long as the concubine affected the reputation of the master''s family, it would be destroyed no matter how favored it was. Before the Zeng family collapsed, there were always filial piety, and Yang Lingyu could still pay attention to it. Now the Zeng family is in bad luck. The Zeng family colluded with the deputy director of the pharmacy to hoard medicinal materials. Once word spreads, if Yang Lingyu doesn''t handle it well, it will definitely affect his official career. Song Jin wanted to kill two birds with one stone. Qin Chi suddenly suggested, "Instead of spreading the word, there is actually another way to do it, which is to collect evidence and submit it to the governor." "Is this possible?" "Now is the time when insect pests are spreading. As a prefect, he does not help the country and help the people, but he uses his power for personal gain, hoards medicinal materials, and buys and sells by force. These are enough to make Yang Lingyu get into trouble, even if it turns out that she is his concubine. The reason is that he is not strict in running the family, and he has not been able to get promoted in recent years. " The Yang family is not without political opponents. If this matter is done well, it will definitely affect Yang Lingyu''s performance appraisal. Song Jin raised his eyes and glanced at Qin Chi. Worthy of being a scholar. All she could think of was using her words to force Magistrate Yang to deal with the Zeng family. They just want to get Governor Yang! Great, she likes it! Song Jin immediately decided to do what Qin Chi wanted. Naturally, people from Shun''an should handle the search for evidence. Just before the deputy envoy came to Jifang, he had already used the same method to obtain evidence from others. Forced buying and selling. These are all evidence. The couple here are discussing how to create trouble for the prefect Yang Lingyu. And Song Xiu didn''t stop lying on the bed. Now she wanted this, now she wanted that, and Qin Daya, who was temporarily taking care of her, was running around. People at home would hear Qin Daya''s voice from time to time, "Grandma, my aunt said this white porridge is too bland and not to her liking. She wants to eat shredded chicken porridge." "Fuck her! It would be nice if someone brought it to her!" Mrs. Liu got very angry when she was cursing people in the main room. Then Qin Daya said loudly, "Grandma! It''s not good, I said I don''t want to live anymore!" "Bang!" The main house owner was so angry that Mr. Liu smashed things and gritted his teeth and said, "Kill the chicken! Mrs. Lin will catch another chicken and kill it." Now Old Liu was really caught by Song Xiu. So Song Xiu sometimes said he wanted to eat sesame cakes and Dingsheng cakes, and now he said he wanted to eat hairy tofu and Daobanxiang. The most outrageous thing was that he wanted to eat Tunxi drunken crabs. Can I eat crab while pregnant? Mrs. Liu was so angry that she cursed again in the kitchen. This **** has a golden bump in his hoof, so he thinks he is a golden bump! PS: There will be no update tonight. The author needs to clarify the plot. Chapter 97 leaving home Chapter 97 Leaving Home No one in the Qin family would be used to Song Xiu. Everyone just did whatever they were supposed to do. Qin Daya is quite interesting. Every time Song Xiu gave her an order, she would run to the door and sing loudly, just like singing in a big opera, so that the whole old Qin family could hear him. What followed was Old Liu''s cursing voice. Song Jin listened amusedly, "Do you think Da Ya did it on purpose? Before each sentence, she also calls out "Nai". This ability to control fire is very powerful. Qin Chi also smiled and said, "She is still a little girl, what bad intentions can she have?" "I didn''t say she had bad intentions." Song Jin just thought Qin Daya was interesting and she was a bit like her mother. Qin Chi suddenly asked: "Do you want to go to the county to stay for a while? I''m afraid there will be no peace at home these days." "Will mother agree?" Song Jin knew that Ms. Li wanted her to raise her baby at home, and said that there would be someone to help her if she got into trouble. In fact, Song Jin wanted to live in Xinyaofang rather than go to the county seat, just to avoid the trouble at home. With this thought in mind, Song Jin told Qin Chi, "I want to live in Yaofang. There is a wing for me to rest there, and Aunt Long will take care of me. It''s quieter than at home, and it''s not far from Qinjiagou. It doesnt take too long to take a carriage back and forth. Sitting in a carriage for a long time is also painful. Qin Chi knew that Song Jin was right, but he still couldn''t help but suddenly had the illusion that she didn''t want to go to the county town with him that much. "I''ll go talk to mother." Qin Chi went to talk to Mr. Li. The reason is that the house is too noisy, which is not conducive for the mother to raise her baby. Mrs. Li thought for a while and agreed. "Why does mother deserve to be so happy?" Qin Chi raised his eyebrows and asked jokingly. Li glanced at her son and said, "With how noisy Song Xiu is, there''s no telling whether the fetus can be saved. If the fetus is unfortunately lost, some bad thoughts may arise. It''s also good that the daughter-in-law is not at home." "Mom is still thoughtful." Qin Chi just wanted to keep Song Jintu clean, but he didn''t expect this. Li then asked softly: "How is your uncle?" "It was cold and cold in the mountains in winter, and the imperial doctor said it was not conducive for my uncle to recuperate, so he temporarily stayed at Nanhu Academy to spend the winter." Qin Chi also visited He Lianpu secretly when he went to the county town. He Lianpu''s original itinerary was Qiyun Mountain. This is something that the emperor in the palace knows, and He Lianpu must go. Qin Chi knew that most of the reason why he stayed was for him and Li. The next day it was sunny and windy. Qin Chi took Song Jin, who had packed the boxes and cages, into the carriage hitched by Boss Qin. He told the Qin family that they were going to the county seat, but the carriage passed by the medicine shop and Song Jin got off. Yinlong heard that Song Jin was coming. Immediately someone came out to respond. Qin Chi sent Song Jin here and took a look at the wing where she lived. The layout was almost the same as the east wing in the county town, except that the room was newly built. With the little maid busy and busy, and Yinlong who understands pharmacology taking good care of him, it is definitely better than being in Qinjiagou. "Should I stay with my wife?" Qin Chi wandered around the wing for a while and suddenly said this. But Song Jin was shocked. Immediately, she responded with a smile, "My husband, you can stay if you want. It''s just that we don''t have the pens, inks, paper and inkstones you are used to, nor do we have those books..." "You don''t want me to stay?" Qin Chi''s eyes were dim, staring at her like a smile but not a smile. Song Jin didn''t want to but couldn''t say, "How could it be possible? I would also be happy if my husband stayed. I was just worried that it would be inconvenient for you to study." "Duplicity." Qin Chi exposed her directly. Song Jin pretended not to hear and packed up the boxes and cages with Xiaoyu. Qin Chi only stayed for half a quarter of an hour before taking a carriage to the academy. During this time years ago, he would often stay at the academy. One is for the upcoming college examination, and the other is to make it easier to find Helian Pu. After sending Qin Chi away. Yinlong had someone bring in a wind stove, with lit charcoal placed in the furnace, and a teapot on top so that Song Jin could drink hot water at any time. "Little miss, are you coming to stay here for a while?" Only then did Yinlong have time to ask. Song Jin nodded, "There are too many trivial matters at home, and my husband said it was not suitable for me to raise a baby, so he wanted to take me to the county seat. Riding a carriage was too tiring, and I didn''t want to go, so he said he would come here." Its really more suitable to live here than in the county town. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Yinlong and Xing''s father also moved here, along with their eldest son, his family and their youngest daughter. When Song Jin bought this piece of wasteland and built the medicine shop, he considered the issue of accommodation, and specially designated a piece of land to build residences for everyone. Song Jin left a wing room. After talking for a while, Yinlong reported to Song Jin about the medicine shop, and then went to the kitchen to make lunch for Song Jin. Song Jin took a nap. When she woke up, the food was ready, and Yinlong also made soup to nourish the fetus. "My boss, Butler Xing wants to see you. Do you want to see you?" Xiaoyu announced outside the hall. Song Jin took the last bite of rice, put down the bowl and chopsticks, and wiped his mouth and hands with a handkerchief. "Invite him in." Song Jin spoke. After a while, Xing Lun arrived as if covered with wind and frost. He was still such a clean and transparent young man, wearing a cloth cotton robe and a small melon-skin cap on his head. When he came in, when he looked up at Song Jin, his calm eyebrows suddenly relaxed, revealing a faint smile. Xing Lun stepped forward, stopped at an appropriate distance, and bowed humbly and respectfully. "Xing Lun has met his boss." "You''re welcome. It''s hard work traveling around. Are you sending medicinal materials again this time?" Song Jin looked at Xing Lun, and finally settled on his slightly chapped lips. Ask Xiaoyu to get the tea leaves and tea sets. He signaled to Xing Lun to sit down and talk later. Song Jin got up from the dining table and came to sit down at the tea table. Xing Lun sat quietly opposite Song Jin. There was a stove nearby with warm water boiling on it. When Xiaoyu got the tea, Song Jin asked her to go to the kitchen to see if there was anything to eat and bring it to Xing Lun. When he saw Song Jin pushing the brewed tea to him silently. Xing Lun said softly: "Thank you, my boss, for your consideration." "Why are you so polite?" Song Jin watched Xing Lun pick up the tea, blow on it slowly, and then drink it in small sips. It wasn''t until he finished the tea that he asked, "Has the matter at the pharmacy been resolved?" After drinking a bowl of hot tea, Xing Lun felt much warmer, "Second Master Meng told us not to pay attention to the deputy envoy, saying that the man had no ability and was just setting up a show to scare us ordinary people." The clerk in the pharmacy doesn''t even have a rank. Meng Qingrui is not afraid of such people at all. Song Jin tapped her fingers lightly on the table, pondered for a moment and said, "You mean there is no one behind the deputy envoy to support him?" "Have you checked? He brought two handymen to Yixian County with the intention of being a free man." Xing Lun was originally from She County. After receiving the message. Immediately take people to transport the medicinal materials back to the car, leaving Zhou Wei to deal with the subsequent collection of medicinal materials. Chapter 98 aborted Chapter 98 Abortion The deputy director of the pharmacy has no real power. To put it bluntly, he was working for the ambassador. Taking advantage of the situation to force Jifang to compromise, in fact, as long as Jifang can withstand the pressure and does not sell medicinal materials to him, there will be no big problem. There will still be some trouble. For example, according to the investigation, the deputy director of the pharmacy asked someone to buy medicinal materials, but the pharmacy would not give them to him, so he spent some money to hire officials from the yamen to go to the pharmacy every now and then to urge them. If you don''t agree to sell medicinal materials, it will affect the business of the shop. This method of the deputy director of the pharmacy is a bit underhanded, but most people will regard it as a hidden loss and agree to sell the stored medicinal materials at a low price in order to be safe. These days, yamen are like bandits to the common people. Its not that the law is bad. But no matter how good the law is, it is only people who enforce it. And few officials are truly upright. Xing Lun then talked about the progress of collecting medicinal materials, and also talked about the situation where Song Jin asked him to train manpower. In addition to the manpower purchased from the dental shop, he also found some people from the families of the medicine farmers, plus Xing Lun and Zhou Wei knew each other as brothers in the past. , simply set up a message network. A capable and loyal subordinate. It cannot be developed overnight. Even if you spend a lot of money, you may just get nothing. Song Jin threw away most of the money he earned during this period. They bought a house or shop in every town in Huizhou Prefecture to use as a stronghold, and then gave them money to develop and offline. Xing Lun handed Song Jin a thick booklet. It records the recent events in the six counties. "Yesterday, Jifang received an invitation from the Huizhou Merchant Gang. On the first day of November, a banquet will be held at the restaurant." Xing Lun took out another invitation. The gold-plated invitation is very beautiful. Song Jin opened it, looked at it, and put it aside, "Why do these people suddenly want to send invitations to Jifang? Logically speaking, we are not qualified for their invitation." Huizhou merchants are very famous throughout the country. There are many things to do, all kinds of things. Just like a big businessman like Shun''an Trading Company, only a big businessman like Shun''an Trading Company can qualify for the invitation. Jifang Drug Store is like a small sparrow accidentally entering a crane. Xing Lun was equally puzzled, "So, I''m also confused. Does my boss want to participate?" "I can''t go there in my situation. If you''re not afraid of being swallowed up, you can go and live a long life." Song Jin couldn''t run around now because of his big belly. Xing Lun didn''t plan to go after hearing this, "Jifang''s business has no intention of expanding externally, and there is no need to go there for the time being, so I won''t go." As Song Jin reminded. Jifang is still weak and not used to being exposed in front of others. The reason why he caught the attention of many big bosses in the Huizhou merchant circle was probably because he had taken over the Song family''s drug farmers, but it was undeniable that his position was weak and he could only rely on Shun''an''s protection to get time to develop. Currently, I am not qualified to be on an equal footing with others. If I rush in rashly, I will become the fat on the chopping board if I am not careful. There is really no need to mix it up. "I guess someone sent us this invitation because they had the idea of ????Jifang medicinal materials. The medicinal materials on the market will only become more and more nervous. There are people who want to take advantage of the opportunity to hoard the medicinal materials and get a piece of the pie." As long as the news was received, the medicinal materials in the hands of the drug dealers were no longer for sale. There are only a few local drug dealers in Huizhou. At present, two families have collapsed, and another Jifang suddenly appears. Looking at the entire Huizhou Prefecture, who has the largest amount of medicinal materials stored? This year Jifang is firmly in the top three. It''s just that all Jifang''s medicinal materials were sold to Shun''an. The quality is unknown to outsiders. It is said that they are quite good, and Shun''an''s purchase price is not low. Every year, the catering houses Huizhou businessmen gathering invites all the top local businessmen in Huizhou. It is very intriguing that the person in charge of organizing this year sent an invitation even though he was not sure who the owner of Jifang was. Perhaps some people have long thought that Jifang belongs to the Song family. Avoiding the situation of the Song family, no one expressed their suspicions in public. This invitation may also be a test. Xing Lun sat there for a while and then the person left. Song Jin went out wearing a cloak. I saw herbs on several mule carts being stocked. Yinlong is counting the items and recording them in the books. In the pharmacy master''s processing room, Xing''s father and another master were busy. Several apprentices are working. Because these people all signed a contract of betrayal. Song Jin will also teach them some of Song''s methods of preparing medicinal materials. It can be said that 90% of the medicinal materials from this pharmacy have the characteristics of Song''s medicinal materials. If they are sold on the market, they will definitely make a lot of money. It was just sold to Shun''an. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! In the following days, Song Jin stayed in the medicine shop. The days are calm and stable. Someone takes care of her daily life, occasionally talks to Yinlong and the others, and gives them guidance on preparing medicinal materials. Life is much more fulfilling than in Qinjiagou. Qin Chi has been to the pharmacy several times. Sometimes I would bring Dr. Jing with me to ask for Song Jin''s pulse, but every time I came, I would buy her special food in the county. Song Jin accepted it with a smile every time. In fact, Song Jin also discovered something. Qin Chi''s aura was getting stronger and stronger, or maybe he didn''t want to hide it anymore. Especially in front of Song Jin. After leaving this door, Qin Chi will still be covered up. Qin Chi came over today and brought some bad news to Song Jin, "Your concubine has been pregnant. She has been lying in bed for so long and she still can''t save it." Song Jin was stunned for a moment when he heard this. Then things returned to normal. Qin Chi lightly raised his lips and said, "There is some good news, do you want to hear it?" "Say it, I''m listening." Song Jin didn''t know what he was trying to sell. "Yang Lingyu was reprimanded by the governor. He was said to have lost a lot of face. He was scolded for being lax in running the family, not being able to control even a concubine, etc." When Qin Chi talked about this matter, he patiently paid attention to the changes in Song Jin''s face. It turned out that Song Jin''s face felt much better after hearing that Yang Lingyu was unlucky. Song Jin asked: "Where is that Zeng family?" "Yang Lingyu sent her back to the Zeng family, and she even wrote a concubine release letter." She was sent back to her clan and wrote a concubine release letter. In the eyes of outsiders, Yang Lingyu considered old feelings and gave the other party a way out. Among some literati, they were picky about Yang Lingyu''s handling of the situation. Some even said that he had good intentions and at least saved a little bit of his reputation. But it can''t erase his lax management of the family. There is a stain after all. Because some people secretly felt that Mrs. Zeng was the scapegoat and the real person who made the mistake was Yang Lingyu. Anyway, this rumor spread as it spread. Time flies by like a white horse passing by. Time seems to fly by and the New Year is approaching soon. Students from various academies are on vacation one after another. Qin Chi came back from the county town and went to the medicine shop to pick up Song Jin. After only half a month of absence, his wife''s belly has grown again. (End of chapter) Chapter 99 Who is willing to be a bitch? Chapter 99 Who is willing to be a bitch? On the way home. Qin Chi talked about the situation at home and mentioned Song Xiu''s situation. He hesitated and said, "Madam, you must be mentally prepared. Your concubine is not in a good condition." "Xiu''er is not someone who will be devastated after being born." Song Jin believed that Song Xiu would be hit by the miscarriage, but she would not be unable to get out of her grief. "Ziyang Academy is on holiday. She will be fine with her uncle at home." I believe that in Song Xiu''s heart, a man and a fetus, of course a man is more important. But there are always surprises. Qin Chi said calmly: "Uncle hasn''t come home yet." "His wife had a miscarriage, and he was hanging out with his wife?" Song Jin blurted out without thinking. Qin Chi''s eyes flashed slightly, "My people didn''t find out that my uncle had an affair. How did the lady find out?" "No? I heard it from time to time." Song Jin covered up the doubts very calmly. At this time in my memory, Qin Mingsong should have already expressed his feelings to his sweetheart. Song Jin seemed to be thinking: "My uncle didn''t go home, so where did he go?" "I heard that I went to Huangshan Mountain with my classmates and friends to see the rime and sea of ??clouds, and some of them brought their families." That Bai Cuiwei also went. If he said there was nothing fishy about it, Qin Chi wouldn''t believe it. Song Jin listened to the last sentence. Did you bring your family? Bai Cuiwei''s brother seems to be a classmate and good friend of Qin Mingsong. There must have been such a thing in the previous life. The memory is too long ago, and it is not important to Song Jin, so I don''t remember it clearly. But later Song Jin had people investigate and found that Qin Mingsong and Bai Cuiwei''s life was poetic and picturesque, a bit similar to the love story between the scholar and the young lady in the storybook. There are twists and turns in love, but it doesn''t hurt. The wife at home is the biggest test of their relationship, but the two of them passed the test and their love is as strong as ever, which is amazing. "We''re home, Dalang." The carriage stopped, and Boss Qin''s voice came from outside the carriage, interrupting Song Jin''s ridiculous memories. Qin Chi jumped out of the carriage first, then stretched out his hand towards Song Jin, and reminded him warmly: "Ma''am, be careful where you step. It''s cold and the road is slippery." "Thank you sir." Song Jin was really careful. Enter the courtyard gate. The yard was deserted, or no one was seen. In this cold weather, everyone is hiding in the house to keep warm. Probably hearing the noise, Mrs. Li came out wearing a cloak. When she saw the three people coming back, she immediately relaxed her eyes and said: "Is this all back?" "Mom, we are back." Qin Chi responded with a smile. "Just come back. Are you hungry? I''ll go to the kitchen and make you a bowl of noodles." Ms. Li asked with concern. Qin Chi was also polite, "Thank you for your hard work, mother." Mrs. Li smiled and turned around to go to the kitchen. At this moment, the door to the second room opened a crack, and two little heads poked out, it was Erlang and Sanlang. Saburo Ichiraku, "Big brother is back!" While shouting, he wanted to slip out. As soon as he stepped out of the threshold, Qin Laoer grabbed the collar behind him. "You brat, put on your clothes and shoes before going out. If you get cold and catch the wind chill, I''ll ask my third uncle to get you half a pound of Coptis chinensis to eat." "Dad, you are so cruel." Saburo muttered. But the man ran into the house to put on his clothes. When he was putting them on, he found that his second brother had already dressed and ran out. "Wow, second brother, you are not kind! Wait for me." "I''ll go to Brother''s place first to see if there''s anything I can do to help." Erlang disappeared before he finished speaking. Song Jin went back to the house. Qin Chi has asked Erlang to help light a charcoal pot and clean the house. Then Qin Chi went out. As a junior who has just come back, I always go to the main room to say hello to the elders in the family. When Song Jin was sorting out the boxes and cages he brought back, he noticed someone coming in behind him, turned around and saw Song Xiu. Song Xiu''s face had become much thinner, her eye sockets were slightly sunken, and her eyes were no longer as bright as before. She was very haggard, and her thick winter coat was worn loosely on her body. Song Jin was surprised to see Song Xiu like this. How much hard work did you undergo to become so thin? "Are you satisfied that I have become like this?" Song Xiu looked at the person with a gloomy look. Song Jin looked at Song Xiu seriously, "I feel relieved when I see that you are not doing well." Hearing this, Song Xiu''s eyes became even darker, "Sister, you have changed." "Isn''t that thanks to you?" Song Jin smiled and said coldly. Song Xiu said sarcastically: "It has nothing to do with me. You are born to be cold-hearted. That''s why you pretend to be so cold-hearted in front of outsiders." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "You''re right, everything is right. So I won''t care about your life or death." Song Jin followed the words and immediately made Song Xiu unable to hold back any longer. "My children have all been wiped out!" Song Xiu yelled angrily, quite hysterically, "You are my only relative, shouldn''t you make the decision for me?" "We are all people who have lived a lifetime, who would be willing to be a bitch?" Song Jin''s voice was not loud, but it was enough for Song Xiu to hear clearly. Compared with Song Xiu''s madness, Song Jin seemed extraordinarily calm. Song Xiu''s tragic situation not only did not win Song Jin''s sympathy, but seemed to make Song Jin ridicule him. Song Jin said calmly: "You have made a mistake when you come to my place. You should go back home and look in the mirror to see what kind of life you have. On the other hand, your husband is much more handsome than you. He is carrying The beauty went to Huangshan to see the rime. After saying that, Song Jin looked at her with sympathetic eyes. It seems that Song Xiu is so pitiful! Song Xiu was so angry that his face turned livid. I wanted to refute Song Jin''s nonsense, and I wanted to say that Qin Mingsong would definitely not be sorry to her, and so on. However, when Song Xiu opened her mouth, she couldn''t say anything. The students of Ziyang Academy have been on vacation for a long time, but Qin Mingsong has not returned yet. Song Xiu was angry when she came, and she was so angry that her heart ached when she left. When they were at the door, Song Xiu almost bumped into Qin Chi. Fortunately, Qin Chi dodged quickly enough. When he saw Song Xiu''s inhuman appearance, he slightly narrowed his cold eyes. Step into the house and close the door. Keep the cold wind out of the door. "Madam, has she come to trouble you again?" Qin Chi immediately looked at Song Jin when he came in. Seeing that her expression was normal, I felt relieved. Song Jin came to the edge of the bed and sat down, "You didn''t bother me, you just came to chat with me about home affairs." "Oh, really? She was going crazy when she left. A few homely words from a lady can be quite powerful." The teasing look on Qin Chi''s face made it clear that he didn''t believe it. Song Jin was not surprised, "Did you hear what she just said?" "It was so loud that it was hard for me not to hear it. I didn''t hear the lady''s answer clearly. Now it seems she didn''t agree..." "My husband, don''t you think I''m unkind?" Song Jin looked at Qin Chi and asked. Qin Chi shook his head, "Ignore the moon in front of the court behind closed doors, and pay the plum blossoms to your own devices." Song Jin heard it. Qin Chi asked her to close the door and ignore those nosy matters, and let whoever decides what matters. These words touched Song Jin''s heart. When Qin Chi came back, he brought two bowls of noodles. There are eggs, bacon slices and sauerkraut on top, which looks delicious and delicious. The two of them sat at the table next to the charcoal pot. Finish the noodles quietly. Qin Chi picked up the two empty bowls, stacked them together, then picked up their chopsticks and stood up. This is to return the dishes to the kitchen. And Song Jin said he wouldn''t care about Song Xiu''s affairs, and he really didn''t care. Chapter 100 Cool and thin Chapter 100 Coolness Over there in the main house. Song Xiu went to find Song Jin, and Old Liu knew about it. I was originally worried that Song Jin would come to seek justice for Song Xiu, but after waiting for most of the day, there was no movement. Old Liu secretly wondered why. I thought that although Song Jin was Song Xiu''s sister, she was also the granddaughter-in-law of the Qin family. It was unruly to dare to question the elders. Since ancient times, the younger generation has been out of control of the elders. Thinking of this, Old Liu immediately became stunned again. I was about to go out aggressively. But at this time, Old Man Qin warned, "If you dare to cause trouble for me and make the house uneasy, be careful with your skin." Old Liu was so frightened that he trembled and said, "Damn old man, when did I cause trouble?" "We''ll see how you deal with Si''er when he comes back." What Old Qin said stumped Old Liu. Old Mrs. Liu felt guilty in her heart but refused to give up, "Song Xiu didn''t keep the fetus herself, what does it have to do with me? There is no young daughter-in-law in the village who doesn''t work every day, she is the most valuable." "Just keep your mouth shut. You know what you did." "What did you do?! I didn''t do anything!" Old Liu retorted with a stern expression. When he met Old Qin''s angry eyes, he suddenly lost his temper and turned his head away from him in a panic. Old Man Qin said gloomily: "Are you sure that I don''t dare to send you back to your parents'' home?" "I am so old that I am sent back to my parents'' home. Will I survive? Rumor has it that the old Qin family wants to lose its reputation? Does Si''er want to lose its reputation? He will take the imperial examination next year." Mrs. Liu was so frightened that her neck tightened, and her voice was trembling at the end. On the night when Song Xiu miscarried, Old Qin beat Old Mrs. Liu severely and made her lie in bed for three days. In fact, Mr. Liu knew it well. If it weren''t for the bad reputation, Old Qin would have wanted to drive her back to her parents'' home. No matter how bad Mr. Liu was, he still valued his children very much. But her failure to control Song Xiu caused her to have a miscarriage, and Mrs. Liu regretted it. But no matter how regretful she is, she won''t admit it. Otherwise, wouldn''t it be her fault? How could she raise her head in this house in the future? Besides, Song Xiu learned that Qin Mingsong had not returned home for a long time and had taken the beauty to Huangshan to see the rime. She said she didn''t believe it but was greatly stimulated. He didn''t step out of his room for several days. Qin Daya sent us all the food. If you don''t send it to him, Song Xiu won''t eat it. It''s hard for the Qin family to ignore the fact that they don''t care if they starve to death. Qin Mingsong walked home through the wind and snow. He originally thought that someone would come to greet him, but unexpectedly, until he stepped into the courtyard, not even Mr. Liu came out, so he had to carry the suitcase and cage in by himself. Qin Mingsong went to push his door open first. I pushed it a few times but didn''t push it away. He knocked on the door instead, but there was no sound for a long time. "Xiu''er? Isn''t Xiu''er here?" Qin Mingsong called several times, but no one inside answered him. I knocked on the door again, but there was still no response. However, someone finally showed his head in the main room. It was Mr. Liu who came out wearing cotton shoes, "Si''er is back? Come over to the main room to warm yourself up. It''s too cold outside. Come in quickly." Qin Mingsong walked over doubtfully. Looking around the big room again, the doors to the second and third rooms were all locked tightly, and no one came out. Carrying his own suitcase and cage, he entered the main room. Old Liu closed the door and the room became much warmer. Qin Mingsong relaxed and walked to the charcoal basin in front of Old Qin and sat down. Then he reached out and grilled it in front of the charcoal pot. Old Mrs. Liu went to get a cup of warm water. Qin Mingsong brought it over and took a few sips, "Mom and dad, are everyone else in the family okay?" "Everyone is doing well, but your wife is not doing well." Old man Qin said with a hint of something in his words. Old man Qin had already heard about Qin Mingsong''s trip to Huangshan to see the winter scenery, and he learned about it from Song Xiu''s mouth. And Song Xiu said it was said by Song Jin. Therefore, Old Man Qin had no doubts about the authenticity of the news. Because of this, even he felt a little chilled. Old man Qin sent someone to write a letter to Qin Mingsong about Song Xiu''s miscarriage. If he didn''t know it, Qin Mingsong''s late return would be nothing. Qin Mingsong was still in the mood to have fun even though he knew his wife had no child. This is somewhat cool. Qin Mingsong''s face changed slightly, and he even stopped drinking hot water. He quickly found an excuse and said helplessly: "Dad, I am going to Huangshan with some of my classmates and friends this time. Among them are the sons of the prefect''s wife''s mother''s family and the son of the mountain chief. As you know, most of the children who can go to Ziyang Academy are from wealthy backgrounds. I cant refuse their kind invitation. Besides, establishing friendship with them will be of great benefit to my future. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Old man Qin nodded. He agreed with his son''s approach. When faced with a choice between a bright future and a wronged wife, most men would choose the former. Old man Qin said: "Wait and comfort my wife." "My son will do it." Qin Mingsong knew that his father accepted his statement. He turned to look at Old Liu. He found that Mrs. Liu was very quiet today, "How is your health? Is your waist that was injured last time better?" "Okay, everything is okay." Old Liu didn''t dare to say more. Old man Qin didn''t say much. When he wrote to Qin Mingsong, he simply said a few words about Song Xiu''s pregnancy, but did not elaborate on how it happened. Therefore, Qin Mingsong still doesn''t know that Song Xiu''s pregnancy loss is closely related to the old Liu family. Qin Mingsong got up and knocked on Song Xiu''s door again. But Song Xiu never opened the door. When Old Liu saw this, he became very angry. When he came to the door, he knocked on the door and said, "You bitch, you don''t open the door when the man comes back. Do you want to rebel?" "Mom, can you stop cursing a little bit?" Qin Mingsong stopped Old Liu. Old Mrs. Liu cursed for a moment, "Si''er, isn''t Mom just doing this for you? Didn''t she just give birth to a baby? Now I dare to shame you. Mom also had a baby when she was young, but I never dared to give it to you. Is your father angry?" In this world, it is common for women to have miscarriages, or for their children to die young. For example, Mrs. Lin once had two pregnancies. No matter how much trouble the mother and son are having outside. This time, Song Xiu did something unprecedented. If he didn''t open the door, he didn''t open the door. Even Song Jin was a little impressed. Xiao Liu was so curious at home that she couldn''t help but sneaked over to Song Jin and said, "Da Lang''s wife, do you think his aunt can open the door?" "I don''t know that." It''s not a lie, Song Jin really doesn''t know. Song Xiu is much more experienced than her in dealing with men. Qin Chi sat aside and flipped through a book. From time to time he would look up at Song Jin and Xiao Liu gathering together, whispering gossip. A beauty with pure temperament. A simple country woman. The two people were incompatible with each other, but they were strangely harmonious. This made Qin Chi couldn''t help but spread out a blank piece of paper. Then he bent down at his desk and picked up his pen, describing the scene in front of him in detail. Chapter 101 The lady is still careful Chapter 101 The lady is still careful Qin Mingsong couldn''t open Song Xiu''s door. That night I had to temporarily go to Erlang and Sanlang''s house to make do with each other. Its more than just a nights sleep. Sanlang''s mouth was open and he poured out all the things at home like beans. As expected of Xiao Liu. He spoke eloquently at a young age. Qin Mingsong finally understood why Song Xiu was so angry, even calling the old Liu family to the door was useless. "Uncle, you really don''t come back to comfort my aunt, but instead accompany the beauty to Huangshan to see the rime?" Sanlang''s gossipy eyes were almost uncontrollable. Qin Mingsong''s expression froze slightly, "Who said this?" How come even the children at home knew about it? "My grandma went to scold my aunt, and she said it. Hey, she scolded our whole family for having no conscience. She also said that she had been unlucky for eight generations by marrying into the Qin family." Sanlang shook his little head and sighed like a little adult, "Uncle, you haven''t said this is true yet? Did you really go to Huangshan to see the rime? I heard that the winter scenery in Huangshan is like a fairyland, but it''s a pity that I Im too young, and my dad doesnt want to take me to see it. The little man felt a sense of regret again. Erlang couldn''t help but hold his forehead, he was very speechless. Didn''t I ask my uncle if he had visited Huangshan Mountain? Why are you lamenting that you didn''t see it again? Erlang quickly made amends, "Uncle, Sanlang doesn''t have any sense of what he says. He dares to say whatever he wants, but he doesn''t have any bad intentions. Don''t blame him." Qin Mingsong looked back at Erlang and said, "My uncle knows that he is just a child and won''t think too much about it." "That''s good, that''s good!" Erlang seemed to be greatly relieved. When Qin Mingsong heard this, he felt extremely angry. He did not expect that just because he said one more word when he left, the old Liu family would use this to learn from Song Xiu. He also tortured his children to death! No wonder Song Xiu was even angry with him. Because Song Xiu was nearby and heard it. Now it is known that he went to Huangshan, but he and Bai Cui kept their secret meeting very secret. I don''t know how Song Xiu found out about it in Qinjiagou. "Erlang, Sanlang, do you know where your aunt knew that I went to Huangshan?" Qin Mingsong asked the two of them. The two looked at each other and shook their heads in unison. "have no idea." "I haven''t heard of it. I have to ask my aunt about this." Looking at the expressions of the two of them, Qin Mingsong knew he couldn''t ask, so he changed the subject and asked, "What about your sister-in-law? Didn''t she help your sister-in-law?" Sanlang blinked his eyes innocently and said strangely: "I can''t help, my sister-in-law is not at home." "Uncle, my eldest brother and sister-in-law went to the county seat before my aunt was born, which was only a few days before you came back." Erlang added. This matter really cannot be blamed on Song Jin. He went to study with Qin Chi, so of course he had nothing to do with the family affairs. So far, no one in the Qin family knows that Song Jin lives in Yaofang, except for the people in the big house. Should Qin Mingsong question Old Liu about this matter? Qin Mingsong doesn''t know how. One night passed. It''s winter, so everyone wakes up a little later. When Song Jin woke up, there was hot water on the six-legged basin stand in the room, and Qin Chi was sitting in front of the charcoal basin. There is also a bottle for boiling water on top of the charcoal basin. There are sweet potatoes buried in the charcoal. The house still smells faintly of sweet potato. "Madam, go and wash up quickly. Come and eat sweet potatoes later." Qin Chi urged Song Jin who was in a daze. Song Jin got up and went over, washed up quickly, and then sat on a stool in front of the charcoal basin. Qin Chi handed over a bowl of warm water. "Thank you sir." Song Jin took the warm water and drank it in small sips. After drinking a bowl of warm water, my whole body felt a little warmer. Qin Chi pulled out a sweet potato from the charcoal fire, let it cool for a while, then wrapped it in a handkerchief and handed it to Song Jin. Song Jin''s eyes fell on the handkerchief for a moment. I can''t get the handkerchief like this. "It''s not cost-effective to have to pay for a handkerchief to eat a sweet potato." Song Jin took it and said half-jokingly. Qin Chi smiled, "An old handkerchief is exerting its final value today." Song Jin thought to himself, just be old as you say. Anyway, she saw no signs of wear on the handkerchief. Qin Chi pulled out another sweet potato, peeled it and ate it himself, "This is breakfast. Eat to cushion your stomach. Lunch will be earlier than usual." There is no need to work in winter, and we usually only have two meals in the countryside. I didn''t have anything to eat when I woke up early in the morning. I was afraid of starving so I had to think of a way to do it myself. For example, Qin Chi could bake a sweet potato and eat it. It''s not like Qin Chi can''t change the lives of the Qin family. But he can''t do this. Lets not talk about Qin Chi and Lis need to cover up. Lets just say that in this environment in the village, everyone does this. If anyone cooks an extra meal, everyone around them will know. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The reason is that when cooking in the kitchen, the smoke rising from the kitchen can be seen from a distance. Not to mention it''s winter, who would be so bored watching others cooking. Not to mention, people are so boring sometimes. Uncles and aunts usually come to the house to chat with each other from time to time. For example, Mr. Liu often goes to the houses of some aunts he has good friends with to talk, and he sits there for half a day. Someone knocked on the door outside. "Who is it?" Qin Chi asked aloud. "Dalang, it''s me." Boss Qin''s voice sounded outside. Qin Chi got up and opened the door. Boss Qin did not come in. Instead, he handed Qin Chi a bag of things, "Your mother cooked this and said she would give it to you and your daughter-in-law." "Thank you dad and mom." After Qin Chi took it, he closed the door after Boss Qin left. As he walked back, he opened the package. Song Jin glanced at it and said, "What is this?" "Torreya." Qin Chi handed the torreya to Song Jin, "This torreya is relatively rare. You can only see it in Yi County in Huizhou Prefecture. I wonder where I got it from." Song Jin reached out and took out a fried torreya. The shell is hard and there is nowhere to start. Put it in your teeth and bite it, and the shell will break. The flesh inside is golden yellow, crunchy and delicious, and has a special aroma. Song Jin fell in love with it as soon as he tasted it. "Heh, you have good teeth." Qin Chi joked with a smile and started to peel the torreya. The two of them had just eaten a few torreya trees. There was another knock on the door outside. It wasn''t someone knocking on their door, it was like the noise in the fourth room, making people uneasy. Qin Chi put all the torreya in Song Jin''s hand and said warmly, "I''ll go out and take a look. You stay in the house." "How about I go take a look too?" Song Jin knew that it was probably Song Xiu who caused the trouble again. Qin Chi glanced at her belly and insisted, "I''ll tell you when I get back after I''ve seen it." Seeing that he disagreed, Song Jin also gave up his thoughts. Song Jin got up and went to get a cloak for Qin Chi, "Put this on before going out." "My lady is still careful." Qin Chi took over the cloak with a smile. After putting it on, people go out. When you go out, don''t forget to close the door. Chapter 102 Something happened outside? Chapter 102 Something happened outside? Qin Chi went out and heard a more obvious knock on the door. There were several people guarding the door of the fourth room. Qin Mingsong, Old Liu, and Old Qin are all here. In addition, Qin Laoer and Xiao Liu obviously came out after hearing the noise just like Qin Chi. "When I say there has been no movement for so long, it''s probably because I can''t think about it anymore." Xiao Liu trembled after saying this. I don''t know if it was because of the cold wind or because I was frightened by what I said. Qin Mingsong''s face was not good either, "Second sister-in-law, don''t talk nonsense, Xiu''er is just angry with me." If his wife commits suicide less than a year after getting married, his reputation will be ruined. Old Madam Liu glared at Young Madam Liu, and then continued to knock on the door, "Song Xiu, hurry up and open the door, don''t pretend to be dead inside, I know you can hear me." But no matter how they knocked on the door. There was just no movement inside. After a while, everyone couldn''t help but think of what Xiao Liu said. Qin Chi also had the same idea, "Uncle, do you want to remove the door?" Remove the door? Fortunately Qin Chi could figure it out. But when everyone thought about it carefully, they thought it was a good idea. Qin Lao Er was the first to agree, "Fourth Lao, I think Dalang''s proposal is very good." "What are you dawdling about? Why don''t you quickly remove the door?" Xiao Liu urged, "How long has this been going on? It''s really hard to think about it, the body is going to stink!" Qin Mingsong came back yesterday. There was no movement and no one came out. I can''t help but think too much about it. The door of this farmhouse is not like that of a wealthy family, so it is not too difficult to remove it, which means it takes a little effort. Wait for Qin Laosan and Qin Laoshan to come out. Mr. Qin and Mr. Qin had already removed a door. Qin Mingsong showed a rare look of anxiety and hurried into the house to check. There is no charcoal pot in the house. But the quilt on the bed is quite thick. When he entered, Song Xiu was lying on the bed motionless, covered with a thick quilt, only half of his head was exposed, and he was still lying on his side, with his whole body curled up. Qin Mingsong stood in front of the bed, not making any move yet. Xiao Liu squeezed in and reached out to touch the quilt, "A warm quilt means that people are not dead." Qin Mingsong didn''t dare to touch it just now. Now hearing what Xiao Liu said, he felt relieved. At this time, Mrs. Liu also came over. With an angry look on her face, she tried to lift Song Xiu''s quilt, but Qin Mingsong held her wrist and said, "Mom, I''ll take care of this." Old Qin and several grown men standing at the door did not dare to come in to avoid suspicion. Qin Chi also stood outside and reminded him kindly: "Uncle, you don''t just know that the person is not dead and that''s it, you also want to see how many breaths are left?" Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San almost laughed. On the other hand, Boss Qin glared at Qin Chi, "Dalang, why are you talking?" Turning around, Boss Qin said to the room, "Fourth! Check to see if the person has fainted. Do you want to ask the third uncle to come and take a look?" After finishing speaking, Boss Qin muttered again, "No one wakes up after such a loud noise. Most likely, the person is sick. It is possible that he fainted due to illness." When Old Man Qin heard this, he thought it made sense, "Yes, Si''er, take a look." Before they could finish speaking, Qin Mingsong was already sitting in front of the bed and checking. Seeing that he was a bit annoyed, Xiao Liu directly touched Song Xiu''s forehead. The person had just come in from outside, and his hands were so cold that Song Xiu shivered before she opened her eyes. "Oh, the person is not dead, his eyes are open!" Xiao Liu said with a sigh of relief. Old Liu had a dark face and was about to curse, but Song Xiu closed her eyes again and seemed to completely ignore them. This made Old Liu very angry. He pointed at the bed and cursed, "You little hooves, are you lying here pretending to be dead? Who are you trying to show off to?!" Qin Mingsong has not recovered yet. Just now, Mrs. Liu touched Song Xiu''s forehead and pulled off some quilts, revealing Song Xiu''s complete profile. Song Xiu, who was so thin that he almost lost his appearance, really shocked Qin Mingsong. Only about two months. The beautiful and charming wife in Qin Mingsong''s memory was actually shaped into this look by Mr. Liu. This is the first time Qin Mingsong has resentment against the old Liu family. "Xiu''er? I''m back." Qin Mingsong reached out to touch Song Xiu''s face. Song Xiu raised her hand to brush it away, but her movement was very weak because she was weak. Song Xiu didn''t even want to look at Qin Mingsong. When Old Liu saw it, he cursed Song Xiu again, "Song Xiu! The whole family thought something happened to you and was worried outside. How about you, lying here and sleeping? Your man is worried about you and is being pretentious. You This bitch..." "That''s enough! Mom!" Qin Mingsong shouted loudly. Old Mrs. Liu was stunned. When he looked at Qin Mingsong again, he noticed the resentment in his eyes, "Mother is teaching her a lesson for you. You are worried outside, and she just lies here and turns a deaf ear..." "Mom, can you go out?" Qin Mingsong looked at Old Liu with resentment. Old Liu looked in disbelief, "Are you blaming my mother?" "Shouldn''t you be blamed? Look at how my wife has been tortured, and my child is gone!" Qin Mingsong originally didn''t want to blame Old Liu, but now he had to blame her. If it wasn''t my mother''s fault, was it his fault? Then he didn''t wait for Old Liu to recover from the shock. Qin Mingsong first asked Xiao Liu, "Second sister-in-law, please go to the kitchen and cook something for Xiu''er, okay? She hasn''t eaten anything since yesterday." "Okay, I''ll go right away." Xiao Liu responded and turned around to go out. When he went out, he ignored the stunned old Mr. Liu. Qin Laoer and others had already reinstalled the removed door. When people in the room speak, they naturally hear it. Old man Qin stepped in, grabbed the shocked old Liu, and started to walk out of the house. But as soon as he turned around, he stopped again. Old man Qin said in a good voice: "Fourth daughter-in-law, it doesn''t matter if you have some obstacles in life, just get over them. The child is gone, but you and Si''er are still young, there will be one next time." Then, Old Man Qin said to Qin Mingsong, "Si''er, make amends with your wife." "I know dad." Qin Mingsong lowered his head and responded. Old man Qin knew that his son was resentful. Before seeing Song Xiu''s appearance, Qin Mingsong could indeed hold his own. It''s different now. Anyone else would have a temper. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! If you don''t have a temper, you are a coward. Qin Mingsong pretended to be dissatisfied. This is a matter of attitude. When everyone left, the door was ajar again. Wait until there are no outsiders in the house. Qin Mingsong sat on the edge of the bed, raised his hand and patted the quilt gently, and whispered guiltily: "Xiu''er, I''m sorry. It was my negligence as a husband. I didn''t protect you well and made you suffer at home." After Qin Mingsong finished speaking, he saw Song Xiu''s eyelashes trembling and tears welling up. He continued: "This time my classmates and I went to Huangshan to take pictures. It was not a trip with Americans as outsiders say. You only need to go to Fucheng to inquire about this matter. I didn''t expect that someone would use this to spread rumors, which would harm Embroidery. I misunderstood. Song Xiu cried bitterly in bed. Crying extremely aggrieved and sad. "When Xiu''er gets better, I''ll show you the scenery I painted in Huangshan Mountain. How about that?" "My husband has limited money now, so I can''t take Xiu''er to go sightseeing. When I have money in the future, I will definitely take you to Huangshan to see the strange pines, strange rocks and sea of ??clouds. If you are lucky, you may even be able to see the light of Buddha." Qin Mingsong''s voice is calm and sincere. Its hard not to be shaken. Song Xiu cried louder... It was loud enough that people standing outside heard it. Qin Chi gathered up his cloak, said something to the others, and went back. Song Jin was still sitting in front of the charcoal basin, eating torreya, but she ate very slowly. During the time Qin Chi left, the package of torreya was only missing a little bit. Qin Chi untied his cloak and put it down. He lightly lifted his clothes and sat across from Song Jin. I didn''t sit close to her because I didn''t want to transmit the coldness on my body to her. "When I came back, I heard your concubine crying. She must be fine." Qin Chi stretched out his hands to warm them on the charcoal fire. Song Jin handed him a cup of freshly brewed tea. Qin Chi took it with a smile, but did not drink it immediately. Instead, he held the tea bowl in both hands and used the heat from the tea bowl to warm his hands. "Madam, you don''t seem surprised?" "We still have to live our lives." Song Jin replied warmly. Qin Chi''s eyes flashed, "What do you mean, Song Xiu is deliberately taking advantage of Qiao?" "I didn''t say that." Song Jin didn''t expect Qin Chi to be so sharp. Didn''t you mean what she just said? Song Xiu married Qin Mingsong with the original intention of living a good life. Even if she had resentment towards Qin Mingsong, Song Xiu would not break up with him for the so-called glory and wealth in the future. Song Xiu originally wanted to get Qiao. Deliberately not opening the door and rejecting Qin Mingsong were all tricks learned by Song Xiu in his previous life. Some men are mean. If you are too nice to him, he will ignore you. What''s more, this time Song Xiu was standing up for herself, and if she didn''t make a fuss, outsiders would just not take her seriously. With such a fuss. Life in the Qin family will be much easier in the future. Song Jin saw these clearly. A selfish person like Song Xiu is not the kind of person who would risk his life for the sake of his children. Qin Chi looked at Song Jin with a smile, "Then we just had a good understanding." Song Jin glanced at him angrily, "Don''t mention her again, it''s boring." "Okay, don''t say that." Qin Chi waited until he was warm, then stood up and sat next to Song Jin, picked up the torreya and peeled the shell, "I will peel the shell for my son and daughter to eat." Song Jin was stunned for a moment, then laughed. So in a warm room. The handsome scholar sat in front of the charcoal pot and peeled the torreya shells, while the beautiful lady sat quietly waiting to eat. Without external disturbances, the scene is very warm. The person involved was completely unaware of this, and just hoped that time would go slower and slower again. Until a pack of torreya is finished... "Bang!" There was a sound of a basin being banged outside. As the basin fell, there was a muffled sound, followed by Old Liu''s scream. The two men looked at each other. Qin Chi stood up and said, "Is something going on outside?" "It looks like..." Song Jin lowered his eyelids to hide his sneer. Someone is causing trouble again. Chapter 103 Old Liu was injured Chapter 103 Old Liu is injured Qin Chi put on his cloak again and went out to check. Song Jin thought for a while and followed out. When I went out, I saw chaos at the door of the kitchen. "Ouch, it hurts me to death..." Old Mrs. Liu fell to the ground and was screaming in pain. There was a bucket and wooden basin poured beside her. Water splashed all over the floor. Seeing the miserable condition of the old Liu family, Song Jin realized that he had suffered a heavy fall. People can''t even stand up. The fracture is certain, but I dont know how serious it is. "What are you doing standing still? Boss, hurry up and take your mother into the house. Second brother, go ask your third uncle to come over!" Old man Qin shouted angrily. Now that we have a backbone, everyone immediately gets busy. Qin Lao Er hurriedly went out to invite his third uncle. Boss Qin bent down and picked up Mrs. Liu back to the house. Xiao Liu went to help, while Mrs. Lin stayed behind, silently picking up the overturned tubs and buckets, and cleaning the floor. Song Jin glanced silently. Nothing was said. When he turned around, he saw Qin Chi also looking away. The four eyes facing each other are meaningful. Qin Chi smiled lazily at her, "The house is noisy. Madam, please go back to the house to rest. If someone accidentally bumps into you, what should you do?" "Listen to my husband, I will go back to my room right now." Song Jin followed Qin Chi''s wishes and returned to the house. Qin''s third uncle came and visited old Liu. Qin''s third uncle is still good at treating trauma. After diagnosis, he said that Mr. Liu''s right leg was fractured and he would have to recover for at least three months. When Qin Mingsong came out, Qin''s third uncle had finished reading to Old Liu, "Mother, what''s going on?" "I accidentally fell it." The person who answered Qin Mingsong was Old Qin. Mrs. Liu was still lying on the bed, moaning in pain. She was injured after a fall and there was no painkiller, so the pain was real. Mrs. Liu asked other men to go out and change clothes for Mr. Liu. The fall just now not only broke her leg, but also made her clothes wet. . The injury on the leg was treated with medicine and tied up. I had to get scissors and scrapped a pair of pants. "Sangmenxing! I married two Sangmenxings in my family. Ever since they came in, the family has never been stable! If I fell this time, they must have defeated me!" The more Mrs. Liu thought about it, the more angry she became. Without anyone to vent her anger, she started scolding Song Xiu and Song Jin. This made Qin Chi angry, "Grandma, you can just scold my aunt, but my wife didn''t offend you. Besides, my life has been getting better and better since my wife came in, and I even got pregnant with a child." Who among these ten miles and eight villages wouldnt say that my wife is a prosperous husband? "Get out of here, you sick boy! What''s wrong with Mr. Wang? You also have to live a long time!" Old Liu''s words stirred up a hornet''s nest. Boss Qin was the first to be unhappy, "Mom! What are you talking about? My husband is in very good health and will live a long life." At this time, he was glad that his wife was not here, otherwise, he would have been so angry at his mother''s words. But now Mr. Liu''s legs are hurting so much that he can''t care about anything else. He is in need of an outlet. So Mr. Liu cursed even more filthy, scolding anyone he caught. Qin Chi turned around and exited the main room. As soon as he left, Boss Qin also left in anger. Then Qin Laoer and Qin Laosan also found excuses to run away. Even the little Liu family didn''t want to serve the old Liu family. Only Old Man Qin and Qin Mingsong stayed. Old Qin lives in this house, where can he go? On the contrary, Qin Mingsong also wanted to ask Mr. Liu for some money. As the year was approaching, he needed to buy some gifts to send to his mentor. Because Old Liu was just injured and couldn''t tell her, he had to mention it to Old Qin. Old Man Qin was noncommittal, "How much do you want?" "Twelve?" Qin Mingsong tentatively said a number. Old Man Qin glanced at him and said, "Si''er, do you know how much money it costs a year since you went to Fucheng to study? This year alone, it cost one hundred and thirty-two taels. We are just farmers, not high-ranking families. A wealthy family. If he didn''t know the art of making ink. It is simply a dream to spend more than a hundred taels a year. But it is not that easy to make high-quality Huizhou ink. Just going to Huangshan Mountain to look for old pine trees is a hard job. It takes two years to make Hui ink at a time. Even if I work hard for two years, I can only produce a pound and a half of good ink at most. Old Man Qin thought about the number and said, "All the money the family earned throughout the year has been paid to you. On the contrary, Dalang didn''t spend a penny from the family to study, and he also won the Tongsheng Prize." If you don''t say it, no one will care. Now when the two are compared, the feeling is very strong. Even Mr. Liu stopped complaining and stared at Qin Mingsong with suspicion. Qin Mingsong was stared at by the two elders, but he still sat upright without any hint of guilt, "Mom and Dad, every money I spend is fully understood." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! After saying that, Qin Mingsong stood up. He bowed deeply to Old Qin, and then bowed to Old Liu in the same way. His attitude was sincere. "Mingsong has been able to read the books of sages since he was a child, and it''s all thanks to his parents. They have really worked hard for them these years, and I dare not forget them in this life. When I go to high school, I will definitely tie a grass ring to repay my parents. of nurturing grace. Qin Mingsong behaves like this. The dissatisfaction in the hearts of Old Man Qin and Old Mrs. Liu immediately dissipated. In the end, old man Qin gave Qin Mingsong twelve taels and asked him to buy a new year gift for his mentor. Qin Chi and others were standing outside the door. Everyone looked at each other. They couldn''t stand Old Liu''s scolding, so they each found excuses to avoid him, but in fact they were still at the door. I didn''t expect to accidentally hear Qin Mingsong asking for money. What''s more, they didn''t expect that Qin Mingsong spent one hundred and thirty-two taels a year. No, now we have added another ten taels. One hundred and forty-two taels! The three brothers never made a cent throughout the year. "Dalang, how much do you spend a year?" Qin Laoer asked with a dark face. Qin Chi''s eyes flashed and he replied quietly: "I don''t spend as much as my brother-in-law, but I still need thirty or forty taels. But because I have good grades, not only are my room and board free, but I also get a subsidy of twenty taels of silver every year. Most of the money I spend is for books and paper. And I made all the pens, inks and inkstones myself, so it didnt cost much. As for my uncles results, I heard they were pretty good, even if he didnt get the best, he should be second-rate. "So, he also gets a subsidy? Even with the subsidy, he still has to spend more than a hundred taels?" The more Qin Laoer thought about it, the angrier he became. You must know that among Qin Ming Songhua''s money, there are also three brothers. Boss Qin also looked bad. Half of the family''s annual income was made up of the money his wife earned from selling embroidery. But Qin Laosan was already numb. He has long seen through the partiality between the two elders. No wonder they don''t like Qin Mingsong. This really makes them dislike it. Qin Chi didn''t know what kind of madness he had today, but he actually said good things for his uncle, "The cost of the city is not as high as that of the county, especially Ziyang Academy, where most of the children are from wealthy families. Even if my uncle is concentrating on studying, he has no hearing." To hear things outside the window, I also need to occasionally go out with my classmates to participate in literary poetry gatherings or outings. For example, when I came back from Huangshan, it was normal for the expenses to be higher than mine. " "Is this bigger? You spent less than him." Qin Laoer became even more angry after hearing this. "Second uncle and third uncle, please be more open-minded. Isn''t it like this every year..." Qin Chi persuaded him in a good voice, with a sense of resignation. The three brothers became increasingly dissatisfied with the people in the house. Old Liu was also injured, so the three brothers were a little worried about her, but now they are gone. So when Qin Mingsong came out and faced the three cold-faced elder brothers, his heart couldn''t help but thump. Chapter 104 Conflict among four brothers Chapter 104 The Conflict of the Four Brothers "Eldest brother, second brother, third brother, you are all here." Qin Mingsong smiled awkwardly and greeted the three of them. Then he saw Qin Chi, who was standing farthest away. Qin Chi looked helpless, "Uncle, we were worried about grandma, so we were always here." Qin Mingsong''s expression changed as expected. Old Qin who was in the room secretly felt bad. Qin Lao Er is a ruthless man and said in a strange tone: "Fourth brother, I''m not worried that my mother has left today. I don''t know that you spend more than one hundred and thirty taels a year. Even giving people a New Year''s gift costs ten taels." "Haha, the most ridiculous thing is that the three of us brothers have to report it to our parents if we spend an extra penny. Even my wife said she didn''t have the money to get some side medicine after she was pregnant!" Qin Laosan''s eyes flashed with anger. Qin Laoer sneered again, "No, Erlang and Sanlang cultivated twenty-two bundles a year, and Dalang saved them through frugality." Qin Chi, who was frugal and frugal, was silent. No, it''s really not to that extent. "If I had known that my parents were partial, I would not be able to blame my son, but I would inevitably feel a little disappointed." Boss Qin looked straight at Old Qin who came out. Old Qin knew that something was wrong. Qin Mingsong stood up first, looked at Boss Qin and the others with a guilty look on his face, bowed deeply again, and said sincerely: "Mingsong will remember the contributions that the three brothers have given to Mingsong over the years. If he succeeds in the future, he will definitely repay the kindness of his brothers for protecting each other." Its this trick again! Qin Chi admires his uncle. The best response so quickly. Old man Qin said with a calm face: "Boss, second child, and third child, my family has really owed you a lot over the years, but there is nothing we can do about it. When the fourth son goes to high school in the future, let him help the family. Our family It will definitely get better. This is the only way to change the family. You dont want to be a loser for the rest of your life. " Boss Qin and the other three did not speak. Even Qin Chi didn''t say a word. Jiang is still old and spicy, and he silenced the three brothers with just a few words. Old Qin put his hands behind his back again, "There is one more year. Next year Si''er will take the provincial examination. If he fails to pass, the family will no longer support him in studying." As soon as these words came out. Qin Mingsong clenched his fists hidden in his long sleeves. However, Qin Chi was a little surprised by Old Qin''s decision. It was precisely because of this decision that the three brothers, Qin Lao and Qin, suppressed their dissatisfaction today and did not completely explode and tear the family apart. If Song Jin were here, he would tell them cruelly. When Qin Mingsong goes to high school in the future, it will be the day of separation. How about supporting your elder brother at home? Stop dreaming! At most, his brother is allowed to put the fields in Qin Mingsong''s name, exempting him from annual taxes. However, in Huizhou, there are not many fields in the first place. Farming alone cannot support a family. This is really not a big benefit. Little Liu in the kitchen was paying attention to what was going on here. Mrs. Lin used rice to make porridge for Song Xiu. Just as it was about to come out of the pot, she took out all the porridge. "Third brother and sister, what do you think those gentlemen are talking about? They all have serious faces, as if something big has happened." Little Liu poked his head at the door. He didnt forget to go back and gossip with Mr. Lin. Mrs. Lin lowered her head and said, "Second sister-in-law, the porridge is ready. Do you want to take it to the fourth room?" "Okay, I''ll bring it over right now." Xiao Liu turned back and walked to the stove, "These four siblings have had a baby, and their lives have changed for the better. They have nothing to do during this period, and we have to take turns serving them. " Mrs. Lin remained silent and did not echo Xiao Liu''s words. But Xiao Liu was used to her reticence and kept nagging, "I have been married into Lao Qin''s family for more than ten years, and I have never seen anyone take care of me for a day." While talking, he also used a spoon to add some salt to the porridge. Then the porridge was brought out. When Mr. Liu came out, passed the yard and looked at the door of the main house, the old and young men also dispersed. It happened that Qin Laoer saw his daughter-in-law bringing food to the fourth room, so he simply took the big bowl from Xiao Liu''s hand and gave it to Qin Mingsong. "Fourth child, I will take care of my daughter-in-law by myself." After saying this, Qin Laoer took Xiao Liu away. Xiao Liu was stunned for a long time. After returning to the house, he looked outside and asked, "My father, what happened? Did his uncle offend you?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "This is more serious than offending." Qin Laoer was simmering with anger. I was about to talk to my wife, but thinking about my wife''s virtue, if I found out that all the money in the family was spent on the fourth child, wouldn''t I be shocked? I endured it and didnt say anything. Not only Qin Laoer didn''t say anything. Neither Qin Lao San nor Qin Lao San said anything to their daughter-in-law. Speaking of this matter, it will not change anything due to filial piety, it can only make many people feel aggrieved. Instead, Qin Chi returned to the house. He took this matter as a joke and told it to Song Jin. This is because Qin Chi knew that Song Jin was loose-handed and had no shortage of money, so he wouldn''t be upset if he knew about it. "My brother-in-law''s expression is wonderful, as well as his grandfather''s." Qin Chi rarely relaxed his eyebrows, and there was a look of gloating deep in his eyes. Song Jin was not very clear about the cost of studying for a year and how much money it normally cost. Qin Chi is a scholar, so he naturally understands this, "To be honest, this study costs a lot of money. The money Shu Xiu pays is second, and the most is pen, ink, paper, inkstones and books. It costs four dollars a year." Fifty taels. These forty or fifty taels are still frugal. If children from rich families use good pens, inks, paper and inkstones, their expenses will be much higher. Qin Chi mentally estimated the expenses of Qin Mingsong Youxue Bookstore, "My uncle has passed the scholar examination. In fact, there is no need to go to Fucheng to study. We have Tachuan Academy and Nanhu Academy in Yi County." Ziyang Academy''s reputation is second to none in Huizhou Prefecture. Many students want to go to Ziyang to study. But that was an expense that only wealthy children could afford. Just Shu Xiu alone cost forty taels per year. Even so, with Qin Mingsong''s talent and learning, as long as he gets good grades and gets subsidies from the academy and free room and board, he won''t be able to spend more than a hundred taels a year even if he is frugal. Come across a book that you must buy. Students don''t have to spend money to buy it. They can also borrow it from their classmates and copy it, thus saving a lot of money. According to Qin Chi''s calculations, Qin Mingsong''s expenses were at least fifty taels more than those of ordinary students. Don''t say that fifty taels is not too much. Song Jin spent hundreds or even thousands of taels, but in an ordinary farmhouse, fifty taels was definitely a huge sum of money. Especially among this amount of money, Li also earned it through hard work of embroidery. Otherwise, Qin Chi would not apply eye drops in front of his father and two uncles. Qin Chi''s eyes showed sarcasm, "My brother-in-law has never thought about his family since he was a child. He is a good match for your concubine." "Indeed, the two of them are a good match." Song Jin deeply agreed with this statement. Upon hearing this, Qin Chi glanced sideways at the woman with gentle eyebrows next to him, and for a long time he raised the corners of his lips happily. Chapter 105 The transaction between Lin and Song Xiu Chapter 105 The deal between Lin and Song Xiu With nothing to do, Song Jin took out her needle and thread and began to embroider the children''s clothes. Qin Chi took out the book and started reading. Just when he was reading, he would occasionally look up at Song Jin, who was sitting on the edge of the bed with his head down and concentrating on sewing. "Don''t you ask me how grandma wrestled?" Qin Chi''s sudden words made Song Jin pause in her sewing movements. After a while, Song Jin continued his work, "Isn''t it an accident? Do you have anything to ask?" Qin Chi chuckled, "Yes, it was an accident." The two of them tacitly agreed not to discuss this topic again. Everyone thought that Mr. Liu accidentally broke his leg when he came out of the kitchen, but Song Jin noticed something suspicious at that time. There are half-rotten cabbage stalks at the kitchen door. It''s most likely to slip when you step on it in this winter. It can be seen from the traces that Mr. Liu stepped on a cabbage stalk and fell. When he fell, he also knocked over the wooden basin and bucket at the kitchen door. In Lao Qin''s family, where food is never wasted, rotten cabbage stalks are rare. When Lin was cleaning up, Song Jin saw it, and Qin Chi naturally discovered something too. But she said nothing, and he remained silent. Just treat it as an accident. Lin, who was reminded of Song Jin, was knocking on the door of the fourth room. Qin Ming let go of the door, "Third sister-in-law, what do you want?" "I''m here to clean up the empty bowls and take a look at my siblings." Mrs. Lin said with her head down and timidly. Mr. Lin has never been impressed by Qin Mingsong. I only know that Mrs. Lin is timid and fearful, but she is a hard-working woman. Every time Qin Mingsong comes home and sees her, she is almost always working. When he heard that she was here to clean up the dirty dishes, she was suspicious of him and turned sideways to let Lin into the house. Lin lowered his head and went in. Go inside and next to the bed. Empty bowls and spoons were seen on the bedside table. It was brought up by Mr. Liu earlier, but the porridge in it was gone. Mrs. Lin came to the bed and whispered quickly: "It''s done." Song Xiu, who had her eyes closed on the bed, suddenly opened her eyes and the corners of her mouth curved in a strange way. He took out a ten-tael silver coin from under the pillow and handed it to Lin. Mrs. Lin quickly grabbed it, put the silver in her arms, turned around and left with the dirty bowl. Money can make the world go round. Song Xiu understood this at a very young age. It only takes twenty taels of silver to make the old Liu who killed her child bedridden for several months. The deal is worth it. "Why didn''t you fall to death..." Song Xiu knew from his previous life that the Lin family resented the old Liu family. Mrs. Lin had two miscarriages due to her poor health, which was also tempered by Mr. Liu. However, Song Xiu used 20 taels of silver to bribe the Lin family, paying 10 taels of silver first and another ten taels when the matter was completed. Driven by profit and hatred, Lin agreed. However, after agreeing for more than half a month, Mrs. Lin never took action. Today was the day when Mrs. Liu was accused by her younger son and was in a trance. Lin succeeded and the evidence was erased by her. No matter how anyone questions, no one will doubt her. On this day, the atmosphere in the Qin family was dull. Mr. Liu was bedridden. From time to time in the main room, I could hear Mr. Liu cursing. Song Xiu stayed at home, but continued to eat and drink as usual. It''s just that Qin Mingsong has changed from his usual clumsy temperament. He has a melancholic temperament on his body. After dressing up carefully, his eyebrows are lightly frowned, giving him a somewhat broken and seductive look. Qin Mingsong felt guilty for her, but also felt a little distressed. At dinner time. "Sister-in-law." Qin Daya came to send a message, "The food is ready in the kitchen and my mother has divided it. Do you want me to bring it to the house for you?" Song Jin has not yet answered. Qin Chi stood up first, "I''ll get it." Qin Chi went out for a trip. Take the food for the two of them back to the room to eat. Not only the two of them, each room rarely eats in the main room in winter, but usually each eats his own meal. After all, it was such a cold day that the food went cold soon after it was put on the table. Song Jin sat next to the charcoal basin and ate. But his ears were listening to the commotion outside, and his voice was not loud. He couldn''t stand up to Old Liu''s loud voice. Secondly, the big room was closest to the main house. I heard Old Liu''s curse words clearly coming from outside: "Eat, eat, eat! If you don''t like the food, and you still want to eat phoenix marrow and dragon liver, then you have to live with that!" "I lie in bed all day like a lazy idiot and still want to eat here and there. It''s really unreasonable for my mother-in-law to not be there to serve her when she''s sick..." "Unfilial and disloyal thing!" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin just wanted to say that this old godly woman was so energetic that she still had the energy to curse people even if she broke her leg. This body is not generally good. Just think about it, when Song Jin died in his previous life, the old godly woman didn''t even die. "Ms. sir, are there several elderly people over seventy in the village?" Song Jin asked suddenly. Qin Chi heard this and was a little confused. "It''s seven or eight years old, which is a rare longevity. Doctor Jing said that Huangshan has outstanding people and a land with green mountains and green waters that can nourish people." Song Jin was about to nod. I heard old Mr. Liu yelling curses outside again. "Second daughter-in-law, you are seeking death. You actually gave Huo Huo most of the eggs in the basket..." "Mom! Why don''t you boil more eggs? I won''t eat them. Why are you scolding me?" Xiao Liu retorted unconvinced, "If you want to scold me, go ahead and scold my brother-in-law. He asked me to cook it. I was still worried about your injury, so I cooked two more. I kindly wanted you to replenish it. What do I have?" Wrong?" "You still dare to be so stubborn?!" Mr. Liu seemed to be hitting people with objects. Xiao Liu didn''t show any fear at all, "Okay, treat your kindness like a donkey''s liver and lungs! If you don''t eat it, I will!" After saying that, it seemed like Xiao Liu ran away with the eggs! Old Liu cursed angrily again. Song Jin ate the food happily. She felt that today''s food was particularly delicious and she couldn''t help but eat more. Qin Chi knew that his wife didn''t like Grandma, but he didn''t expect that she would be so unhappy. Just knowing that the other person is unlucky can make you feel so good. Well, his grandma is really unlikable. Song Jin thought of the noodles Li cooked last time, "Last time, the noodles my mother cooked for us only used two eggs?" "Don''t think too much. Grandma is just using the topic as an excuse to scold people." Qin Chi did not tell Song Jin that the flour, eggs and bacon used by Li were all bought by him privately for Li to open a small stove, and he did not touch the things in the public house. Since the last time Song Xiu Huo Huo had flour, Mrs. Liu had locked the rice and noodles in the kitchen into her room. Only take out some when eating. Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Lin didn''t expose it when he did it. Anyway, so many people in the family did not notice this matter. Song Jin and Qin Chi, who were slightly aware of the clues, also remained silent and did not delve into it. Song Jin initially thought that Lao Liu''s bed rest would at least make Lao Qin''s family quiet for a while. actual situation. She took it too much for granted. The leg injury tortured Mr. Liu so much that he couldn''t sleep every night. If he had any trouble, he would beat and scold those around him. Even old man Qin couldn''t bear it and moved in to sleep with Erlang and the others. Until Lin fell ill from exhaustion. Chapter 106 Discuss taking care of Mr. Liu Chapter 106 Discussing taking care of old Liu The person coming from outside is named Qin Chi. Erlang''s voice came: "Brother, I asked everyone to go to the main room to discuss matters." "Is your sister-in-law going too?" Qin Chi put down the book and asked. "No need, it''s all men who go there." Erlang hesitated and said. Usually when Lao Qin''s family has important matters to discuss, the men in the family usually sit together to discuss and decide. When Qin Chi passed by. Old man Qin and his four sons, plus Qin Chi. Qin Chi twitched the corner of his mouth slightly and sat on the chair next to Boss Qin. "This is because the third daughter-in-law is infected with the cold. She has a lot of work at home, and she also has to take care of your mother..." Old Man Qin began to tell his purpose. The reason is that Mrs. Lin is ill and cannot take care of Mrs. Liu for the time being, so we need to discuss who will take care of her. Xiao Liu definitely can''t do it alone. Plus there are still a few days until New Years Eve. There are a lot of things going on at home. "According to your mother''s wishes, you can''t favor one over the other. People from the four rooms will come in turns, one room per day." Old man Qin said that he was looking for everyone to discuss, which is actually equivalent to a notice, "If you have any opinions, you can put them forward now. Let''s put it together." total." Boss Qin was the first to respond: "Dad, I have no objection. However, my wife''s body is weak and everyone knows it. When it''s the eldest son''s turn, let me serve my mother." Qin Chi didn''t expect his father to be so straightforward. As expected of his father, he was the one who could do it. Old Qin''s face darkened. This kind of job of serving my mother is usually done by women. What does it mean to belong to a big man? Boss Qin seemed not to notice Old Qin''s dark face and insisted on taking care of Old Liu himself. This care is not simple. One room needs to be guarded for one day and one night. Besides, Mrs. Li is not someone who can tolerate anger. Boss Qin never thought of letting her go to Mr. Liu to get scolded. "Boss, if it doesn''t work, let the elder man''s wife take care of it." Old man Qin suggested. Boss Qin refused, "No! My mother has a son and a daughter-in-law. When will it be the grandson''s daughter-in-law''s turn to fulfill her filial piety? When word spreads, outsiders think we are unfilial as sons." Song Jin was pregnant with his eldest grandson, and Boss Qin didn''t even consider it. Qin Chi came and went through the motions. Come back and tell Song Jin what happened. "Each room takes turns. Mom''s health has not been good recently, and dad won''t let her take care of grandma." Qin Chi said about the affairs in the eldest room. Song Jin was not surprised when he heard this, "What about me? No one asked me to take care of grandma?" Qin Chi smiled and said: "My grandfather wanted to, but my father refused. You are pregnant with a golden knot. Who dares to order you?" Now Lao Liu is a person that everyone is afraid of avoiding. Qin Chi smiled again: "After this discussion, it was my father and three uncles who took turns coming." Song Jin raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Will my uncle agree? Can he... take care of people?" "He can''t tolerate this." Qin Mingsong had no choice but to take care of his mother. As the saying goes, filial piety comes first among all good deeds. Qin Mingsong has read the books of saints and sages for many years. If he is not willing to take care of his injured mother, it will definitely be criticized by others. There are still six days until New Year''s Eve. Next, the Qin family was very lively. Qin''s three brothers took turns taking care of the old Liu family. Mrs. Liu yelled at them when she saw them. She scolded them all day long for being worthless and unable to even control their daughter-in-law. The noise made the three bosses Qin hold back their anger, but they could only pretend to be deaf and dumb. Until it was Qin Mingsong''s turn. The family was extremely quiet. Everyone who listened to the three days of scolding had very wonderful expressions. Sanlang quietly slipped to the window and took a peek, but when he came back, his eyes were bright. "Do you know? I know the reason!" Everyone looked at Saburo in unison. The weather is fine today, with warm sunshine. Old Man Qin found a pig butcher and killed the family pig. Killing the pig, bleeding it, disemboweling it, taking out its internal organs, etc., took only two and a quarter of hours, and the butcher took half a pound of money and rushed to the next house. The rest will be taken care of by the three brothers, Boss Qin. So everyone was in the yard, including Song Jin, who was also basking in the sun. At this moment everyone looked at Saburo. Sanlang puffed out his chest and patted her twice, "You will never know what methods I used to make Grandma calm down." "What method?" Qin Daya was curious. Erlang came over and whispered: "My grandma is partial and can''t bear to scold my uncle." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "No." Sanlang smiled mischievously, then made a gesture of holding a book and shaking his head while reading. The strange appearance made everyone in the courtyard amused. Song Jin couldn''t understand for a moment. But Xiao Liu whispered into Song Jin''s ear, "I saw his brother-in-law going to the main room with a book in his hand." "He goes to study in the main room?" Song Jin was slightly surprised when he heard this. Xiao Liu winked and cleared her throat, "I''m telling you, when I went to the main room, apart from serving tea and water to my mother-in-law, the rest of the time I just sat down and read." "Then, grandma asked my uncle to go back to the house to study. My uncle refused outright, saying that it was his turn to be filial to grandma, and he couldn''t do anything to others." Song Jin sneered in his heart. Xiao Liu gave her a thumbs up, "You guessed it! That''s exactly what my uncle said." "Where is this scholar..." Play with people''s hearts clearly. After all, Yao''er, who was at the forefront of his heart, was different from his son who was usually a bully. Mr. Liu would not embarrass Yao''er even if he felt wronged. Qin Mingsong went to the main room without leaving the book. Then make it look like you can read a book when you have free time. When Old Liu saw him, he would naturally not use him as he did Boss Qin and the others. Even if Mr. Liu wants to curse, he still has to worry about whether it will disturb his son''s study. When she spoke, Qin Mingsong went back to his room to read. Qin Mingsong naturally expressed his filial piety. I have to say that this trick is really useful, at least it makes everyones ears clear. "Hey, Qin Shi, we just killed the pig today. My family killed it a few days ago." An old man came outside the yard. Old man Qin said with a smile: "Isn''t it because the pig butcher was not available before? It''s my family''s turn today." Pig butchers are also very busy during the holidays. Anyone who wants to ask him to kill a pig must go to him several days in advance to make an appointment. This year, the Qin family was busy with one thing after another. It was late to find the pig butcher, so they reluctantly arranged it until today. Otherwise, it would have been like killing the pig around the 20th in previous years. Old man Qin asked with a smile: "What brings fifth brother here?" The old man raised a roll of red paper in his hand and said, "Come and ask your Mingsong to help write a couplet." Old man Qin hasn''t spoken yet. Next to him, Qin Laosan said first, "It''s not a coincidence that the fifth uncle came. My fourth brother happens to be unavailable today, but you can ask Da Lang to write it." "That''s okay too." The old man didn''t care. Qin Chi heard from the side and responded with a smile, took the red paper from the old man''s hand and entered the room. As the New Year approaches, villagers often come to Qin Mingsong and Qin Chi to write couplets. Qin Chi was very familiar with this operation. The reward is simple, two eggs or Chinese cabbage, some people also put down one or two copper coins, etc. Chapter 107 Get rid of the old and welcome the new Chapter 107: Getting rid of the old and welcoming the new When Qin Chi came out again, the couplet had been written, and the old man left two eggs and thanked him and left. That''s what it means. Mrs. Liu came over, took the eggs and took them back to the kitchen. Then several more people from the village came one after another, also asking for Spring Festival couplets, and Qin Chi wrote them one by one. By the time the pigs were killed in the yard, they were almost done. There was another movement outside the door, and a carriage came. "Is Qin Tongsheng at home?" It was Xing Lun''s voice. When I came here to find Song Jin, I naturally wanted to find her husband-in-law first to avoid letting others gossip. Qin Chi went out and saw Xing Lun. The two of them talked while avoiding people, and then Qin Chi came back with large and small bags of things, "Madam, this is a new year''s gift from shopkeeper Jin." Song Jin sent Da Bao''s New Year''s gifts including bacon, rice and noodles to the kitchen, while Xiao Bao carried them back to the house alone. This packet is not for eating either. It is the general ledger and several rosters of Jifang Pharmacy this year. Song Jin handed over the stored batch of medicinal materials to Xing Lun. Xing Lun made a lot of money through this, and also opened up several connections, allowing Jifang to develop rapidly. It was no longer the small pharmacy when Song Jin first arrived in Yi County. Not to mention the manpower Xing Lun secretly developed. There were a lot of people added to the drug shop and the county drug store alone. In addition, Xing Lun also compiled a list of pharmacists under the name of Jifang Pharmacy and sent it to Song Jin for review. Song Jin looked through the ledger and found that he had made a lot of money this year. But at the end of the year, there were only more than four thousand left in the accounts. She is eager to develop and invests heavily. And without his own manpower, he can''t do anything, let alone find the whereabouts of his family. Although Shun''an will help with the search. While Song Jin places his hope in Shun''an, he will also do his best. For her, money is a tool to find her family. When Qin Chi came in, he accidentally glanced at the ledger and roster on the table and said, "My wife is very lucky." After finishing speaking, Qin Chi paused and added: "The wealth luck is also good." Hearing this, Song Jin raised his head and looked at him questioningly. As if asking how to say it? Qin Chi sat across from Song Jin, "I heard that Jifang made a lot of money this year." "Thanks to Shun An." Jifang really needs Shun''an''s protection to make money safely. Qin Chi didn''t say that he thought Song Jin was lucky. The Song family was already in trouble, but there were still two families who would work conscientiously for her. There seems to be a talent among them. Ever since Xing Lun plotted to kill Uncle Zeng, Qin Chi began to pay attention to him. That young man who seemed to have a very low sense of presence was not ambiguous at all when he did things. If he wasn''t Song Jin''s confidant, Qin Chi would have wanted to poach him. And Zhou Wei is also pretty good. Bold and careful, he is also reliable in his work. Others are also performing their respective duties and doing a good job. Now Jifang''s development momentum is very good. When Song Jin came out of the house again, he met Song Xiu coming out. Song Xiu, who had been nursing for a few days, had recovered a lot, and her face had grown fleshy. "Sister, I went to work in a drug store. Does my boss still want to send someone to give New Year''s gifts?" "What''s the point? Dad did this before." The Song family gives New Year gifts to farmers every year. This matter is not a secret in the Song family. The suspicion in Song Xiu''s eyes was about to overflow, "Do you think I''m stupid? In the past, my father didn''t give New Year''s gifts to everyone, but to the old medicine farmers." "Others will also be rewarded with silver." Song Jin didn''t want to talk to Song Xiu, but Song Xiu was not happy. "Sister, I have no money, can you lend me some?" Song Xiu''s tone was just like when he asked Song Jin for money in his previous life. Song Jin turned to look at Qin Mingsong, who happened to be walking over, "Song Xiu, if I ask Qin Mingsong later if he has abused you, why else would you be begging me for money now that you have a husband?" "Song Jin!" An angry look flashed across Song Xiu''s face. Begging? ! This is treating her as a beggar! But when she heard that Qin Mingsong was coming over, Song Xiu suppressed her anger and made herself look delicate and soft, with a bit of melancholy. Men like this kind of woman very much. Song Xiu turned around and stopped Qin Mingsong. She leaned into his arms and didn''t know what she said. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Mingsong just raised his head and glanced at Song Jin, then gently hugged Song Xiu back to the room. This gave Song Jin new insights. "Second daughter-in-law! Where did the second daughter-in-law die?! Come here and help me relieve myself." Old Mrs. Liu''s loud voice called out to Little Mrs. Liu. Xiao Liu was washing pig intestines, "Hey! I''m busy with work and can''t spare any time. Daya, go call your uncle." Today was originally the fourth room''s turn. This old guy can''t even think about tormenting people today. Qin Daya rolled her eyes and hurriedly ran to the front door of the fourth room and shouted: "Uncle! Uncle! Grandma is calling you!" The whole family heard this sound! Qin Mingsong lingered for a while, then came out of the house and went to the main room. In the afternoon, Aunt Qin and Aunt Qin came over. They all heard that Mr. Liu was injured in a fall, so they came here to take a look. What they brought back was limited. Aunt Qin brought about ten kilograms of pecans, and Aunt Qin brought two kilograms of pork belly. But Aunt Qin seems to be a different person when she comes back this time. He lost a lot of weight and walked with a limp. The two girls didn''t stay at their parents'' house long. After seeing Lao Liu, we went back after dinner. When leaving, Old Man Qin even asked his two daughters to carry ten kilograms of meat home. Who asked the old Qin family to kill pigs today? The return gift was of course pork, and it would be unreasonable not to give it, and the rest had to be cured. Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes several times and murmured to Song Jin privately, "They must have known about the New Year pig being killed at home, so they chose to come here today." "Maybe it''s a coincidence?" Song Jin responded. "I don''t believe it. The guy in the main room didn''t just fall. It''s only been seven or eight days. He''s here a long time ago. It was the same in previous years." Xiao Liu didn''t like these two sisters-in-law. Every time I come here I get an advantage. Song Jin didn''t feel much about this. During the Spring Festival this year in the previous life, Qin Chi passed away, Li was seriously ill, and the entire Qin family was deserted. Even if Mr. Liu is bedridden now, it will not affect the New Year atmosphere at home. They kill New Year pigs, pickle bacon, make rice cakes, buy new clothes, purchase New Year goods, prepare Spring Festival couplets, door gods, window grilles and lanterns, etc. There is a custom of "lighting up" in Huizhou, which means that on the night of New Year''s Eve, every household must be lit up everywhere and keep the lights on all night long. As the saying goes, "when the lamp is shining, the family is prosperous." Song Jin''s house was filled with lanterns both inside and outside. Qin Chi hung it up himself. The lanterns were very festive, and the paintings that year were also painted by Qin Chi himself. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, its five to three oclock. Both adults and children are dressed in new clothes. Old man Qin led the whole family to light incense, burn candles, offer offerings, etc., and perform a ceremony of kneeling before the portraits of their ancestors, which was intended to invite the ancestors and family members to celebrate the New Year together. When men meet in the village, they bow to each other and say auspicious words to each other. When children see their elders, they should kneel down and greet them, saying, "Congratulations on your 100th birthday." The whole village was in a joyful and festive atmosphere. Chapter 108 Song Xiu doubts life Chapter 108 Song Xiu doubts life Even though Song Jin was thinking about her family, she was still feeling the joy of the New Year. At present, the adults and children in the family are sitting in the main room. He was eating all kinds of snacks on the table. "Will there be dragon and lion dances this year?" "You have to ask the patriarch about this." "We don''t have it in our village. I heard that other villages have lanterns and swings." Sanlang looked at Qin Chi with a longing look on his face. That little face made it clear that he wanted to go! Song Jin also looked at Qin Chi with a smile. Qin Chi shook his head and smiled: "Go to your father and ask him to take you to play. This year I will stay at home with my wife." Several children were disappointed. Saburo pouted, "My father won''t agree. He said there are many kidnappers in busy places, and he also said that kidnappers like smart kids like me the most." "Haha, yes, kidnappers like people like you the most." The room was filled with laughter and laughter. Mr. Liu in the main room should hold back no matter how much he wants to curse someone during the Chinese New Year. There are many things that are taboo during the Chinese New Year, so he has to be careful with his words to avoid saying unlucky words. Qin Mingsong is filial. Whenever he had time, he would come and talk to Mr. Liu, even though he still had a book in his hand. Song Xiu didn''t act like a monster either. Mrs. Lin had been ill for several days and had come out in festive clothes during the Chinese New Year. She was in much better spirits. She was holding Erya beside her and smiling when looking at people. Song Jin couldn''t help but glance at it a few times. If Old Liu''s matter was really Lin''s plan, it wouldn''t be surprising for him to fall ill. Then Song Jin looked at Li again. Dafang seems to be doing well this year. Even Mr. Li, who usually gets sick when winter comes, is doing well this year for the first time. Qin Chi put a piece of rice cake into Song Jin''s hand, "What are you looking at, madam?" "Look, Mom looks good." Song Jin replied with a smile. Qin Chi raised his head and looked at Mr. Li, who was sitting next to Boss Qin, "My mother is about to give birth to her grandson. When her mood relaxes, people will naturally be happy, and when people are happy, they look better." Song Jin smiled and did not reply to him. Mr. Li has always been very thoughtful. Now that my son is married and I have a grandson to hold in my arms, I no longer have to worry about having no children without my son. In addition, I finally met Helian Pu this year, which relieved me from the pain of missing my relatives for many years. The depression that has accumulated in the chest for many years. Naturally, a lot of it dissipated. As Qin Chi said, when a person is happy, his health will be better. On the second day of the new year, the men in the family go to pay New Year greetings to the elders in the clan. The festive atmosphere of the Spring Festival lasts until the eighteenth day of the first lunar month. Private schools are about to open classes, and colleges are about to start recruiting new students. Qin Chi was taken by the academy chief to open a small stove early. The college examination is in February. College students taking part in the college examinations this year need to concentrate on studying, which actually means studying previous years'' test questions and so on. Huizhou has many large and small academies. Every year, students are recruited by competition, and students with good academic talent will inevitably be taken seriously in the academy. If a few talents emerge this year, the academy will not have to worry about student resources next year. Song Jin stayed in Qinjiagou. But she found Po Wen early. As soon as I searched, I found two. This is rare in the countryside, but in fact shopkeeper Tao found one, Jin Ling and the others also found one, and they all said that she was an experienced stable woman from all over the country. Qin Chi also asked Doctor Jing to live in Qinjiagou. Yinlong also came to take care of Song Jin personally. Until the child is born. Xiao Liu made Song Jin angry several times because of his attention. Not to mention Xiao Liu, every daughter-in-law in the village who has heard of her is extremely envious. You must know that when they give birth to a baby, they always rush to ask for their mother-in-law on the day of delivery. Sometimes they can''t invite her, so they have to have their own mother-in-law come to deliver the baby. This life and death are fateful. Who would hire two stable women in advance, and even have a woman who understands medical science to take care of her? At the same time, do you want to hire a doctor early? I''m eight months pregnant and it''s normal for twins to be born early. Others say that morning is just sour. As for the place to live, the Qin family would definitely not be able to live there, so Qin Chi spent money to temporarily rent three rooms with his family brother who went to the county town to do business. It was specially given to Dr. Jing, his medicine boy, and two stable ladies. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! After Qin Chi went to the academy, Yinlong moved into Song Jin''s house. A small bed was laid in Song Jin''s room to facilitate taking care of Song Jin when he got up at night. Song Jin told the outside world that Yinlong was the doctor she paid to help raise the fetus. In addition, Song Xiu stares at Yinlong every day, obviously thinking that she is very kind. I just couldnt remember who Yinlong was for a moment. On the contrary, he found that Yinlong took very good care of Song Jin and was particularly meticulous in his food. He was no less generous than before in the Song family. This made Song Xiu''s suppressed jealousy start to stir again. After several trials. Song Xiu really gave up. Perhaps she really understood it and Song Jin would not care about her life or death. This made Song Xiu confused for a while, and occasionally she would feel a trace of regret. She should not have been reborn to plot against Song Jin, but should have discussed with her about changing marriages. Didn''t Song Jin say that? As long as she asks to change, Song Jin will agree. If he hadn''t broken up early, Song Jin would have been like that in his previous life. Song Xiu will marry Qin Mingsong in this life. The life that Song Xiu imagined was somewhat different. In the memory of Song Xiu in his previous life, Song Jin had always lived a good life, but he forgot that when Song Jin first married into the Qin family, he had also been trained by the old Liu family for a period of time. In this life, Song Xiu is isolated and helpless in the Qin family, and is suppressed by the old Liu family as her mother-in-law. In her previous life, she had been a widow in the Qin family for three years, and she had never had such a hard time. At most, she had to endure some gossip. After the miscarriage, Song Xiu lay on the bed for a long time before she realized it. In his previous life, he could live comfortably because of Song Jin''s support. What''s more, sick Yangzi died at that time, and someone had to be a widow for him for three years. It was time for the Qin family to burn incense. Later, only Song Xiu was left in the big house. The second and third bedrooms thought about the benefits of having a big house, and they would protect her to some extent on a daily basis. There are some things that come without thinking about them. Song Xiu, who had returned from rebirth, originally wanted to live a good life, so she planned to change Song Jin''s marriage. Who would have known that even though the parents had changed, life would be even more difficult than being a widow in the previous life! The only thing that can support Song Xiu at this moment is probably that Qin Mingsonghui will be a Jinshi in high school in the future, and she can become the wife of an official. You must know that the Song family has not collapsed, and it is not easy for Song Xiu to marry an official. What Song Xiu was most jealous of in his previous life was Song Jin''s good fortune. She was obviously down and out and married into a peasant family in the country, but she became the official wife of her dreams. I originally thought that after the marriage change, Song Jin would be able to follow the path of his previous life, but I don''t know where he went wrong in this life. This year has passed, and sick Yangzi is still not dead! It''s like a dream. Song Xiu sometimes couldn''t help but wonder...are the memories of past lives real? (End of chapter) Chapter 109 All living beings Chapter 109 The appearance of all living beings "Are you my servant?" Yinlong picked up the black-bone chicken soup for Song Jin. Song Xiu behind him suddenly spoke up and stopped Yinlong, "I recognize you. You used to be a servant of our Song family." "Second Miss, I am not a servant of the Song family." Yinlong answered very seriously. Song Xiu sneered, "Want to deny it? If you deny it, I will be your master." "I''m free." Yinlong didn''t want to get entangled with this Song Xiu. "You''re a liar, you''re free and you still want to serve my sister? Since my sister is your master, so am I." Song Xiu disagreed and continued to give orders from above, "Remember, I want to eat street chicken and Huizhou dumplings tomorrow, and they must be prepared for me on time. And this time, the black-bone chicken soup, a bowl will be brought to me later." After speaking, Song Xiu turned around and left proudly. As if he had returned to the Song family, he instinctively took on the attitude of treating his servants. Yinlong picked up the black chicken soup and returned to Song Jin''s house. Song Jin looked up and saw Yinlong hesitated to speak, so he asked directly, "What did Aunt Long meet outside?" "I met the second girl." Yinlong repeated to Song Jin what Song Xiu had just said to her, "When I and others left the Song family, the second girl was only eight or nine years old. I didn''t expect that she would still remember me." Song Jin sneered. Secretly scolding Song Xiu for wanting to eat farts. Its not easy to take advantage of her! So, Song Jin directly said to Yinlong: "Aunt Long, the relationship between me and her has fallen out a long time ago. It''s just that we have to live together like this after marrying each other. You don''t pay attention to her, just treat her as a stranger." . She didnt dare to make trouble in front of me. This married into a family. I can''t look up or look down all day long. Yinlong sighed secretly in his heart. Rather than giving birth in Qinjiagou, it was more suitable to give birth in the county town. However, after the Spring Festival, Doctor Jing took Song Jin''s pulse and said that her condition was not suitable for running around and working hard. Riding in a carriage for too long may lead to premature birth. other side. Song Xiu waited and waited, but her black-bone chicken soup didn''t come. Before, Song Xiu would have gone to Song Jin to question him angrily. But now Song Xiu also recognized the reality. Song Jin threatened to break off the relationship with her, which was a real breakup, not just a talk as she thought before. He didn''t dare to do anything in front of Song Jin. It doesn''t mean that Song Xiu won''t act arrogant in front of his "servants" and wait for Yinlong to come out of the house. Song Xiu stopped Yinlong and said, "Why didn''t you deliver the black-bone chicken soup I asked you to deliver? If a servant dares to disobey the master, you don''t want to live anymore." "Second girl, a person needs face and a tree needs bark. My little lady said that she won''t give it to you even if she throws it away." Yinlong felt confident after learning about Song Jin''s attitude. "Diao Nu!" Song Xiu was so angry that he raised his hand to hit Yinlong. Song Jin came out of the house and said, "Song Xiu! Aunt Long''s family has been a member of the family for a few years. Please show some respect to me. If you continue to be so messy, don''t force me to deal with you." Looking at Song Jin''s indifferent eyebrows, Song Xiu panicked. Immediately, she said with a stern expression, "If you don''t give me, I won''t give you. It''s just a little food. It''s not like I haven''t eaten before!" Leaving behind these words of condolence, he walked away with messy steps! It''s just that Song Xiu doesn''t care about eating but fighting. Song Jin was living a good life, but she just couldn''t stand it. So Song Xiu went to the main room. In front of Lao Liu''s bed, he said that Song Jin ate alone and was not filial to his elders. After Song Xiu''s mouth went dry and she left, she began to pay attention to the movements in the main room. Yinlong went back to the room and said to Song Jin: "Little miss, the second girl has gone to the main room. Will she cause trouble for you?" "She wants to cause trouble for me, and I want her to get out of bed." Song Jin smiled and didn''t take it seriously. At most, they would just curse a lot, but they would not lose a piece of meat. Just like the three brothers, Boss Qin, they cursed a lot when they were waiting for the sick, but after leaving the main room, the three of them did whatever they were supposed to do. Song Jin smiled again and said, "Song Xiu will soon have no time to pay attention to me. Tomorrow it will be the fourth room''s turn to go to the main room." Qin Mingsong went to the academy two days ago. The four-day cycle has not changed. It is impossible for Song Xiu to avoid laziness anymore. She must fulfill her filial piety for her husband and go to the main house to take care of the old Liu family. It is unclear whether Mr. Liu knows how to practice Song embroidery. On the other hand, Mrs. Liu heard that Song Jin had cooked delicious food but did not bring it to the main room. She wanted to lose her temper, but Qin Laosan, who was taking care of her today, laughed. "Mom, are you hungry at home or something? Are you going to have to fight for food with your two great-grandsons?" Old Liu glared at Qin Laosan angrily, and quickly added: "I just wanted to ask, and I didn''t say eat." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "What are you asking? The elder man''s wife didn''t ask her mother for money to buy food. Besides, her father allowed her to have her own family, so what she eats has nothing to do with her." Qin Laosan''s words were heartbreaking. Specially picking out things that Mr. Liu doesnt want to mention. But when I think of my great-grandson, I can only hold back and not make trouble. Because of this, Song Xiu''s wishful thinking failed. Old Liu was almost unable to step down after a few words from his son, let alone trouble Song Jin. Time flies. February has arrived in a blink of an eye. The college exam is coming soon. In the second half of the first month, Qin Chi returned the letter. The letter said that he had gone to the provincial capital in advance with his master. He also said that the exam would take four or five days and that he could not return to Yixian County until the results were released. It will take about half a month before I can go home. Earlier, the family wanted to accompany Qin Chi to take the exam. But Qin Chi didn''t give in. In order to avoid worries about his family, Qin Chi bluntly said that the academy would arrange for people this time, and the food and accommodation would be free of charge. It would be inconvenient to take other people to the provincial capital. In a courtyard of the provincial capital. This is the property of a certain gentleman from the academy, and it is temporarily lent to the students of Tachuan Academy who are rushing to take exams. A dozen students from Tachuan Academy and the three masters who lead the team all live here, and they can get guidance from their masters at any time. "I said Qi''an, you can really sit still. I''ve been in the provincial capital for so many days and I haven''t seen you go out once." Le Yan looked at Qin Chi, who was holding a scroll and flipping through it, and couldn''t help but sigh. Qin Chi smiled and said nothing. On the other hand, Meng Qingrui looked tired and had faint dark circles around his eyes. He rubbed them vigorously and asked dissatisfiedly: "I didn''t go out either, brother Le, why don''t you sigh for me? You This is favoring one over the other. "Ha ha." Le Yan laughed out loud, "Some people say they haven''t gone out, but you can tell just by looking at the dark eyes." "Well?" Meng Qingrui was not angry even after being exposed. Since coming to the provincial capital. Every now and then someone invited them to a party. After all, it was daytime when Le Yan went to the banquet, but Meng Qingrui was not very honest and went to a brothel to drink wine with others. Qin Chi looked at Meng Qingrui and reminded him: "In the next few days, you should go out less. Free banquets are not so delicious." Hearing this, Meng Qingrui straightened up and asked, "What does Qi''an know?" "You just need to go out less." Qin Chi did not elaborate. But two people listened. I decided to decline the invitation again and stay here to review with peace of mind. Chapter 110 College examination Chapter 110 College Examination Only children can participate in the college examination. As long as you win, you will be a scholar. During this time, many candidates from various states gathered in the city, and almost all inns, large and small, were full. The business of major teahouses, restaurants, and even brothels has improved a lot. Some students often meet up to talk about poetry and classics. During the day, there are teahouses and chess and music parlors, and in the evening they go to the brothel to drink and have fun. In the name of it, it is a gathering of literati. There are many people who are playing dirty tricks behind the scenes. There are always some students with outstanding literary talents who are in the limelight on the eve of the exam, but in the end they miss the exam due to one reason or another. This year is no exception. The next day, it was reported that someone was selling test questions and defrauded a lot of money. A dozen students were fooled. It was later confirmed that the test questions were fake, but the student who bought the test questions was disqualified from this year''s exam by the provincial academic administration, and said in public: "Academic classics and theories all originate from the heart. If the heart is not right, everything is wrong." " Among them, two candidates are the favorites to compete for the top three. After receiving the evaluation of academic administration, their future is almost ruined. The news spread quickly. The news reached the ears of Le Yan and Meng Qingrui, and they were happy for a while. Someone had secretly sold them test questions. The two didn''t understand at the time. Looking back now, I realize what happened. On the eve of entrance examination. The three of them heard some news one after another. For example, a talented man was having a meal at a brothel, but was stripped naked and thrown out by the brothel. He happened to be caught by an old-fashioned old priest who scolded him for being degrading. Who is sick and unable to take the exam, or who breaks his leg in an accident, etc. The two of them were frightened after hearing this. I came to Qin Chi and wiped my sweat, feeling very happy. Qin Chi looked at the two of them angrily, "You have to be capable if you want others to scheme against you. What do you two have to worry about? You''re just an annoyance when you go out." Meng Qingrui and Le Yan twitched after hearing this. The master who had just come over couldn''t help laughing after hearing this, "That''s right. Those who can make people bother to calculate are those with outstanding talents and good literary talent." Just like the case of selling fake test questions. It''s very possible that someone set up a trap specifically to deceive the two students who were recognized as having good knowledge, and the others were added to it, one by one. Confucius once said. Meng Qingrui and Le Yan understood, and looked at Qin Chi with envy. Meng Qingrui chuckled and said, "Qi''an, why doesn''t anyone plot against you?" Qin Chi looked at him with a half-smile. Le Yan answered for Qin Chi, "Then he has to go out. He can''t even see anyone. How can he plot?" "The servants in this courtyard are all trustworthy." The master reminded again. Qin Chi is a student that Tachuan Academy focuses on. Chief Lu Shan hopes that Qin Chi will win this year''s academy case title so that Tachuan Academy can become famous in the provincial capital. The reputation of the academy has declined over the years. Every three years someone will be selected as a scholar, but none of them will win the title. Therefore, the master who led the team was most concerned about Qin Chi and had long warned the handymen in the courtyard not to let others take advantage of the loopholes. The leader of the team came here this time because he was worried that Qin Chi would be influenced by the outside world, so he came here to have a heart-to-heart talk with him. It happened that Le Yan and Meng Qingrui were also there, so they said a few more words of encouragement. Wait for the Master to leave. Le Yan poked Meng Qingrui next to him and whispered, "Look at Qi''an, he looks a little distracted." "I guess I miss my wife." Meng Qingrui probably knew that there weren''t many things that could affect Qin Chi, "You don''t know, he''s going to be a father soon." "That''s to say congratulations and blessings." Le Yan looked at Qin Chi enviously. The two of them spoke quietly, but how big is this place? Qin Chi naturally heard the conversation between the two, not to mention that just now he was wondering in his mind who would make such a grand scheme. Now that he heard the two mentioned being fathers, he was really thinking about Song Jin. After counting the days, Song Jin was about to give birth. Traditionally, giving birth to a woman has been like walking through the gates of hell. Qin Chi would be lying if he said he wasn''t worried. As her husband, he should have been by her side, but the timing was unlucky, so he had to wait until the hospital exam was over before rushing back. Hope to catch up. The next day. The first moment of Mao hour. There were several long queues outside the government office. It was discharged several miles away. These are the children who have been born in more than a dozen states over many years. You can imagine how many people there are. Standing next to Qin Chi were Meng Qingrui and Le Yan, as well as other candidates from Tachuan Academy. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Under the arrangement of the team leader, we came to the back of a team. There are no shortcuts. Everyone is waiting in line like this, not to mention that we are just entering the examination room now. There is not much difference between the process of college examination and government examination. It''s just that the desk leaders don''t need to sit in front of the hall, they are all scattered into various examination booths. As for the seat numbers, they are drawn in advance. The specific location is, and you have to go in and find it before you know whether it is good or bad. "I hope it''s not a bad name." Meng Qingrui muttered to the number, "It''s not a bad number, it''s not a bad number..." Le Yan thought about it and became equally nervous, "Don''t keep nagging me. It makes me nervous too. My luck has never been very good. I got a bad name when I went back to my hometown for the exam." "Then your response shouldn''t be that." Meng Qingrui said firmly. Le Yan straightened his back, "What do you mean by this?" "It''s a matter of probability. Very few people get bad numbers repeatedly. You got it last time, but this time you won''t get it. How unlucky people would have to be to get it again and again." Meng Qingrui''s statement was fresh and successfully made Le Yan feel relieved. Meng Qingrui then looked at Qin Chi and said, "The person most likely to get a bad number is Qi''an. He didn''t get it in the previous county examination or prefecture examination." "Oh, thank you for the reminder." Qin Chi really wanted to say that this guy always had the ability to make his hands itchy and want to hit people. For candidates, getting a bad number is a disaster. In the next few days, you will have to smell the stench from the latrine all the time. You can imagine how good or bad your mood will be, which will affect your test scores to some extent. Enter through multiple layers of screening. Qin Chi looked at the seat number in his hand and walked south. The rooms in the examination shed stand opposite each other, and the corridor is narrow, only big enough for two adults to walk side by side. When he found his room, Qin Chi''s expression finally changed for a moment. There are two toilets facing each other about a foot away from the room. The exams haven''t started yet, and the smell hasn''t come out of the toilet yet. But Qin Chi could imagine what the next few days would be like. But there''s nothing we can do about it. I can''t go back and tell the academic administration now that I want to change my room number! Then let alone the exam, he may be directly disqualified from the exam. I can only hold my nose and admit myself to be unlucky. Qin Chi entered the room. The room was only three feet wide and four feet high. People had to bend down to avoid touching their heads when entering. Moreover, the examination table and stools were covered with dust. Qin Chi simply took care of it himself. When I finished cleaning up, I turned around and looked at the room opposite. I was stunned and felt a little bit dumbfounded. "Why are you? It seems Qingrui''s probability is wrong." Qin Chi joked with a smile. Le Yan cried sadly, "When this person becomes unlucky, I''m even afraid." "Hahaha" Chapter 111 Accident Chapter 111 Accident Qin Chi cleaned the room. There were still candidates coming in one after another outside. Thinking that the long queues would not end so soon, Qin Chi tidied up the sleeping place first. Lie down and take a nap. Until the officers and soldiers appeared in an orderly manner. An officer and soldier stopped next to Qin Chi''s cell and stood up straight with a weapon in hand. This was acting as a supervisor. Some government servants came to sell the Four Treasures of the Study and food. The price was quite reasonable and Qin Chi bought them all. In addition, flints and candles were bought, and the most purchased item was Ai incense. He decided to stay in the room for the next few days and occupy Ai Xiang non-stop. In addition to reducing odor, it can also repel mosquitoes. Among the pile of things, Qin Chi also saw papyrus. Qin Chi bought some and rolled up two balls, just enough to stuff them into his nostrils. Le Yan saw Qin Chi''s operation and quickly followed suit and bought a lot of Ai Xiang. After eating, the yamen servant put away the things. Qin Chi began to study ink. About two quarters of an hour passed The academic administrator who was in charge of the examination led a group of people to inspect the dormitory. After the group of people left, not long after, a Yamen servant came over holding test questions. After watching it, Qin Chi quickly copied down the test questions. The title is two articles and one poem. That is, two essays and one test poem. The format of the article is stipulated as an eight-legged essay, that is, students must follow a fixed format and structure the article according to eight parts: breaking the topic, carrying the topic, beginning, beginning, starting part, middle part, back part, and closing part. Qin Chi was the first to solve the problem. I made a mental draft. Its almost time to start drafting. While the stinky slogan was still there, Qin Chi concentrated on writing quickly. Le Yan looked up and saw that Qin Chi had already started writing, and sighed slightly in his heart. Before he could solve the problem, Qi An had already started writing. He was worthy of being a student valued by Shanzhang Lu. At noon. The yamen servant came again to sell food. This time Qin Chi only asked for steamed buns and warm water. After hastily filling his stomach with two steamed buns, he took the time to pick up his pen again. By the time the sun sets. The yamen servant came again. Qin Chi smelled the stench coming from the side and lost his appetite. He only wanted two steamed buns that could last and a pot of warm water. I burned incense and blocked my nostrils with pieces of papyrus. When night falls. Qin Chi does not plan to stay up late writing articles and maintain a normal schedule. Put away the examination papers on the examination table, carefully wrap them in oil paper, and then put them away properly before making the bed to rest. Qin Chi would treat the exam papers with such caution. Of course, the seniors impart their experience in the examination room. You must know that many accidents have happened in the examination room during scientific examinations, including wind and rain. Some candidates did not put the written test papers on the table before going to bed. If it was windy or rainy, the test papers would be blown away or caught in the rain, which would cause trouble. It would be nice to write another one if I have time. If there is no time, then the exam can only be cancelled. This is a big blow to the candidates who have waited hard for three years. Qin Chi made the bed where he would sleep tonight. The word bed here is an exaggeration. In fact, there are only two wooden boards on the ground, which are just big enough for one person to lie on. Qin Chi lay down undressed and closed his eyes. Le Yan saw Qin Chi sleeping. He also wanted to imitate Qin Chi and go to sleep. But he didn''t feel sleepy at all at the moment, and his mind was full of ideas for the article, so he had to pick up the pen and continue writing. Its not just Le Yan who is fighting all night long. This is true for many candidates. This is the first night of the exam, and not many candidates can sleep peacefully. Most of these people came here to gain experience and have no hope of being admitted as a scholar, so they have a stable mentality, such as Meng Qingrui. It''s dark, so sleep when you need to. Not nervous at all, very open-minded. "Ah! My exam paper!" A scream in the examination room broke the silent and serious night. "No! It''s gone!" "Go get water and put out the fire quickly..." "Quick, quick, quick!" "Candidates are not allowed to move around!" "Any candidate who leaves the room without authorization will have their scores invalidated!" Qin Chi was awakened by the noise. He quickly turned over and sat up, but could not get out of the room. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! There were still officers and soldiers guarding outside the cell, with weapons still in their hands, shining sharply under the night lights. Qin Chi did not leave the room, but from the reflected fire, it could be seen that there was a fire in the examination room, but the examination room was large and not on their side. Le Yan and Qin Chi looked at each other. Both of them were still frightened. This exam is not that simple, and the security is not 100%. Once the exam begins, a large number of officers and soldiers will block the examination room, and no one will be allowed to leave before the time is up. Just like this fire, the government officials and soldiers will send people to put out the fire, but they will not allow anyone to escape from the examination room. The reality is harsh and cruel. But this is the system of the Daxia scientific examination. Even the examiner cannot make the decision without authorization, because violating it is a serious crime of beheading. This fire-fighting matter lasted most of the night. Qin Chi couldn''t sleep anymore after being woken up, so he lit more candles and simply continued the exam... Three days passed quickly. Qinjiagou received a letter from Qin Mingsong. It was said that a fire broke out during the provincial college examination and many candidates died! Even after the fire was put out, no candidates came out. Song Jin was frightened after hearing the news. I sent someone to inquire about the news. There were indeed rumors outside that a fire broke out in the hospital examination. It was said that the fire was very big and the smoke was billowing. Many people in the city saw it that night. Suddenly shocked, Li fainted on the spot. Boss Qin quickly carried the person into the house. Then ask someone to ask for Doctor Jing. Song Jin wanted to go to the main room to visit Mrs. Li, but after walking a few steps, he felt a dull pain in his abdomen. He couldn''t help but cover his stomach and cried out uncomfortably: "Aunt Long..." "Little miss! My water has broken and I''m about to give birth!" Yinlong was the first to discover the problem, "I''ll help you go back to your room and lie down first." Xiao Liu was surprised, "I''m going to call Po Wen, and Da Ya quickly go to the kitchen to boil a pot of hot water." "Okay, mother!" Qin Daya responded hurriedly. Mrs. Lin stood up and helped Yinlong, helping Song Jin back to the house one by one. When the Qin family heard that Song Jin was about to give birth, they immediately started getting busy. Some people went to call Wen Po, and some people went to boil hot water. Adults and children were all waiting in the yard, and even Mr. Liu walked out of the main house with his cane on his back. The commotion in Song Jin''s room became louder and louder. It was frightening to hear. But there is hope in everyone''s eyes, and they hope that the child can be born safely. Song Xiu looked at the door of the house with a sullen face, and muttered with malice: "The child is born and the father is dead. Two things that will defeat the father, it is better not to be born." "Wow, auntie, you are so vicious." Sanlang suddenly accused Song Xiu behind him. Song Xiu was startled. She turned around and looked at Sanlang, who was looking up at her, and glared at him fiercely, "Kid, please stay out of adults'' affairs." "My eldest brother won''t die, huh." Not to be outdone, Saburo stared back. Chapter 112 twins Chapter 112 Dragon and Phoenix Twins Song Xiu said with malicious eyes: "Your brother-in-law wrote to say that there was a fire in the examination room, and it spread outside. A person who should have died early, but the Lord of Hell forgot about him for a while, didn''t he think of him again?" Sanlang didn''t understand what Song Xiu meant. It''s just that he doesn''t like his aunt''s demeanor at this time. As if he was sure that his eldest brother was dead. Just when he was still about to argue with Song Xiu, Erlang came over and pulled him away. When he was far away, he whispered: "Don''t talk to that crazy woman, her words are not accurate." "But my uncle said there was a fire in the examination room." Sanlang drooped his little head, as if tears were about to come out at the next moment, "Second brother, will something happen to the eldest brother?" Erlang is also a half-year-old child and is equally worried. The adults in the yard didn''t look good when they saw it. Qin Chi didn''t know yet if something happened, but his wife was frightened first. Doctor Jing first checked Mrs. Li''s pulse and prescribed a prescription before turning to show it to Song Jin. Just then he came out of the house. Suddenly he was surrounded by the Qin family. Old Man Qin asked: "Doctor Jing, how is my grandson-in-law doing? Is there anything wrong with the child?" "There is no big problem, as long as the child is born, it will be fine." Doctor Jing said a few more words. Song Jin was just nine months pregnant, a few days earlier than expected, but there was no big problem. With Doctor Jing''s words, everyone felt a little more relieved. But there is no need to rush in this situation. The baby won''t be born for a while. People outside could only wait anxiously. About half an hour passed. Mrs. Li was helped out of the big room by Boss Qin, and then worriedly guarded outside Song Jin''s house. There are two Wenpo inside, and Yinlong is also inside. Xiao Liu and Mrs. Lin were helping to carry the hot water, and they were also busy. Doctor Jing did not go away, but was led by Old Man Qin to sit in the main room. The adult men in the family also moved to the main house. Old man Qin then asked his son to make a pot of tea to entertain Doctor Jing. "I heard that you received a letter saying that there was a leak in the examination room and some candidates died?" Doctor Jing heard the villagers talking when he came over, "Can you show me the letter?" He was worried about this too. The people sent to protect the young master could not enter the examination room. Old Qin went to get Qin Mingsong''s letter. Doctor Jing opened it and read it. The letter contained normal greetings to his parents and family. Most of them were concerned about what Mr. Liu said, and he only briefly mentioned the fire in the provincial examination room. He said that there was a fire in the examination room on the first night. The fire was soaring into the sky and the casualties were unknown. He also expressed his concern for Qin Chi. The letter didn''t say anything happened to Qin Chi. But this news is enough to worry the Qin family. No, Li was so shocked that she fainted. I dont know what Song Jins condition is, but shes suddenly going to give birth, so its probably related to the news. Boss Qin said: "Dad, I want to go to the provincial capital." "Then let the second and third sons go with you. There will be more than one person to take care of you." Old Qin did not stop him. Dr. Jing spoke at the right time, "Looking at the date this letter was written, it is three days from today. If you count the time, the hospital examination ended yesterday. You are leaving for the provincial capital at this time. Maybe you both missed it. In fact, You dont need to worry too much, the hospital examination room is not locked. Hearing these words, Old Man Qin and his son were confused. Boss Qin was really worried about his son, "Doctor Jing, can you tell me in detail?" "If the room is not locked, people will escape if there is a fire. At worst, the test results will be invalid." Doctor Jing also just realized that the hospital examination is strict, but it is not as strict as the provincial examination and the joint examination. It is said that in the rural examination and the general examination, candidates are checked naked before being put into the room, and then the candidates are directly locked in the room from the outside, just like a small dark room, and the room will be equipped with a bucket. Before the end of the exam time, you have to eat, drink, and eat in the dormitory. In this case, if there is a fire. It is difficult for candidates to escape. There have been several examination room fires in this dynasty, most of which caused no casualties. However, a few years ago there was a fire in Gongyuan, and more than a dozen people were burned to death. What caused this tragedy was that the examinee''s room was locked, and when the fire broke out, the people locked inside were unable to escape in time. This case caused a great deal of fuss. All officials involved were held accountable by the emperor. It''s a pity that the officials of the imperial court did not learn lessons or make reforms. Fires still happen from time to time. That''s why the Qin family is so worried. Even after being reminded by Dr. Jing, Boss Qin still decided to go to the provincial capital. "Then the third child will accompany me, and the second child will stay at home." "Okay, I''ll go with my eldest brother." Qin Laosan immediately agreed. If you don''t see people with your own eyes, you can''t feel at ease. Qin Laosan went to hitch the carriage. No one else stopped him, but Old Liu said with a straight face: "Ms. Lin, go to the kitchen and spread out some sesame seed cakes for the two brothers to eat on the way." "Okay mom, I''ll go right away." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Lin turned around and went to the kitchen. The hot water in the pot has been sent to Song Jin''s room, and Mrs. Lin scooped up the rest. Qin Daya came over to help, "Third Aunt, do you want my help?" "Then help me ask your grandma to get some flour." Mrs. Lin said softly. Qin Daya readily complied. When she arrived at the door, she met Song Xiu and said, "Da Ya asked your grandma if she wants more flour. Sister-in-law, please spread out two more pancakes. I want to eat them too." "Then you have to ask your mother-in-law." Lin did not make the decision without authorization. Song Xiu''s lips curled up in mockery. There was no one else in the kitchen, so Song Xiu didn''t restrain himself. "Why are you so stingy? It''s just a few pancakes. It''s not like the Qin family doesn''t have money." Lin just did things quickly and ignored Song Xiu. "It doesn''t matter if you give me this cake to eat. They won''t be able to eat it if you take it with them. It might be wasted." What Song Xiu said was incomprehensible. Mrs. Lin was confused when she heard this, "Why can''t I eat it after I brought it with me?" "Kekeke..." Song Xiu smiled strangely. Anyway, Lin didnt feel comfortable listening. Song Xiu added: "Seeing that you and I are on the same line, I don''t mind telling you that the sick man is probably dead. The eldest brother and the third brother went to the provincial capital to collect corpses. At that time, they could still eat Something?" "You..." Ms. Lin was not very happy after hearing this, "You and I are not in the same group." "Whatever you want, it doesn''t mean it doesn''t." Song Xiu saw Qin Daya coming back with flour. Qin Daya said regretfully: "Auntie, I asked Grandma, and Grandma asked me to tell you that if you want to eat, you can buy it with your own money. The food at home is rationed." Song Xiu''s face turned ferocious. That old immortal must be eyeing her money again? ! Forget it, I wont eat it. Song Xiu left the kitchen angrily. When she heard the noise coming from Song Jin''s house, Song Xiu couldn''t help but feel happy. That sick man is finally dead this time! Compared with other people''s worries and uncertainties, Song Xiu speculated with the greatest malice. But this night, the Qin family''s lights were brightly lit. The adults in the family stayed up almost all night, except Song Xiu. Song Jin struggled until midnight before finally giving birth to the two children. After giving birth, she fell into a coma from exhaustion. The two gentlemen came out beaming with joy, each holding a swaddle. "Congratulations!" "congratulate!" "They are a pair of twins, the eldest is a boy!" (End of chapter) Chapter 113 What are you calling? Chapter 113 What is the ghost calling? It was already noon the next day when Song Jin woke up. "Little miss, are you awake?" Yinlong stayed by the bed. Song Jin raised his eyes and looked at Yinlong, then looked around the room, "Where are my two children?" Before falling into coma. Song Jin only knew that she had given birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, but he didn''t have time to take a look. As soon as the man woke up, he immediately found him. Yinlong brought a bowl of egg and sugar water over with a smile, "Little miss, let''s eat something to cushion your stomach first. The two children are now being taken care of by their own grandma, and they are doing very well. I will bring them over later for you to see. The doctor has examined the children and said they are all healthy and strong." It was probably because of Qin Chi''s abnormal appearance due to childhood illness. As soon as they heard that the two children were healthy, the adults of Lao Qin''s family almost cried with joy on the spot. In the big house, there are two small beds made by Boss Qin. There were two little milk babies lying on their backs. The family took turns coming to watch. The children in the second bedroom are almost stuck in the first bedroom. Mr. Li coaxed them away with a piece of candy each. "Auntie, sister-in-law is awake." Qin Daya poked her head out of the house. Mrs. Li heard this and said, "Please ask your mother to come over." "Okay." Qin Daya quickly ran to find Xiao Liu. After a while, Xiao Liu came over. Mrs. Li asked Mrs. Liu to take the two little babies to Song Jin. Xiao Liu responded and called Lin for help. One carries the other to Song Jin''s house. Yinlong opened the door and saw the two of them. He smiled happily and said, "Aunts, please come in." After the two came in, they closed the door again. Maybe the bloodline is really a magical existence. Just looking at the two infant babies made Song Jin feel so weak. Yinlong taught Song Jin how to breastfeed. Song Jin learned it very seriously and fed the two milk babies with unfamiliar movements. Then lay them side by side on the bed. Yinlong suggested: "The older the child is, the more he will eat. Do you want to find a wet nurse for the child? It''s a bit difficult for you to feed two." "But this is in the countryside, so finding a wet nurse is too difficult." Song Jin thought of what wealthy families do, and they basically find a wet nurse before the child is born. But this is the countryside after all. Song Jin thought of Li''s identity. I deliberately lived here anonymously, and then I had to hide it even when I saw my relatives. After thinking about it, I decided to forget it. Giving birth to a child this time was already a big deal. Yinlong saw the troubled look on Song Jin''s face, and then suggested: "You can drink cow''s milk or goat''s milk, or go and touch the cows or sheep that produce milk." I thought about how I grew up drinking cow''s milk and goat''s milk. Jin Ling and Yinlong helped cook it, and it didn''t smell bad. Song Jin asked Yinlong to help find him. As long as you spread the word about this matter to the pharmacy, someone will naturally help to inquire about it. Stay with the two milk babies for a while longer. Seeing Song Jin''s tired face, Yinlong took the two milk babies back to Li''s side and let Song Jin have a good rest. She had to go to the medicine shop and ask someone to find cows or sheep. The door of the room was closed, and only Song Jin was lying in the room. At this time, I can''t help but think of Qin Chi. In fact, thinking about it rationally, Song Jin didn''t think Qin Chi would be able to avoid the fire, but he was really worried about what might happen? This may be the bad thing about rebirth. In Song Jin''s heart, Qin Chi should have died last year. It''s like the King of Hell tells you to die at the third watch, who dares to keep someone alive until the fifth watch? If you can escape once, can you escape a second time? "Squeak." The door of the house was pushed open. A figure sneaked into the house and quickly closed the door. Song Jin saw someone coming. It is Song embroidery. Song Xiu turned around and saw Song Jin awake on the bed. She straightened her back and said, "Sister, let me see you." "I know you''re interested, but it''s not necessary." Song Jin''s ability to choke people to death was something Song Xiu never experienced in his previous life, but he hated it in this life. The corner of Song Xiu''s mouth twitched, "My sister was not like this before. She wouldn''t give anyone face when she opened her mouth." "You were not like this before. Your face is thicker than the city wall." Song Jin sat up, half lying on the bedside and looked at Song Xiu with a smile. But the smile in his eyes didn''t reach his eyes. Song Xiu, however, was uncharacteristically good-tempered and walked over with a smile. She sat on the chair next to her without saying hello, picked up the red dates and peanuts on the side of the plate and ate them, "It seems that since we were reborn, we sisters have not sat down to have a good chat." Pass." Song Jin looked at Song Xiu again with a look that looked like a retard. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Xiu was so angry that she almost jumped up and cursed, but she strangely suppressed her temper. Song Xiu was convinced that Song Jin was in confinement and could not get up and drive her out. "Sister, you know, I feel like my previous life was a nightmare, and even after my rebirth, I seem to be half asleep and half awake until now." Song Xiu peeled off the peanut shells and ate them as he spoke. Song Jin ignored her. Song Xiu didn''t care, and said while eating: "Sister, you are right. I have changed, and so have you." The only thing that hasn''t changed is probably her jealous heart. As time went by, the jealousy not only did not diminish, but actually became deeper and deeper. Living a better life than Song Jin has long been Song Xiu''s obsession. As the saying goes, you can''t live without going crazy. Song Xiu then talked a lot, and it didn''t matter if Song Jin didn''t agree to her. She talked about her own things until she finished the red dates and peanuts on the table. Only then did Shi Shiran stand up to leave. Song Xiu and Nana walked to the door, holding the door panel with their hands, looking back at Song Jin and saying, "Sister, I want to express my condolences and accept the change." "roll!" Song Jin couldn''t bear it anymore. A pillow was thrown at Song Xiu! However, Song Jin was still weak and didn''t hit anyone, but it still shocked Song Xiu. Song Xiu was not angry but chuckled, "Song Jin, you are finally angry because of shame. Oops, you can''t pretend anymore. According to me, people just have to accept reality" She said as she opened the door. He smiled and was about to walk out, but a tall and familiar figure suddenly ran into his eyes! Qin Chi''s clear eyebrows seemed to be smiling but not smiling. "Ghost!" Song Xiu was so frightened that her face turned pale and she screamed repeatedly. Not only Qin Chi but also other members of the Qin family were outside. Seeing Song Xiu''s appearance, they were really angry. Especially Boss Qin, an honest man, didn''t have a good look towards Song Xiu, "Fourth brother and sister! My son is obviously alive and well, what are you calling me?" "Yes, what is auntie screaming about?" Saburo rushed forward from behind the master and said triumphantly, "Auntie! Take a quick look and I''ll tell you that my eldest brother is alive and well." Old Liu stepped forward with his cane and twisted Song Xiu''s waist hard. The pain caused Song Xiu to come back to her senses immediately. He looked left and right again, at Qin Chi and others, and then looked back at Song Jin who was getting up behind him. Not dead! Not dead! Song Xiu glared at Qin Chi angrily. Then he pushed Old Liu away and rushed out of the door. Chapter 114 Give a big gift Chapter 114 Give a big gift Qin Chi rushed back after a long journey. Originally, he was anxious to go home to see Song Jin and his children, but as soon as he arrived at the door, he heard someone talking in the house, and it was the same Song Xiu who was looking forward to his death. This woman is also quite capable. He always used his death to provoke his wife. Just one sentence can make his wife so angry that she starts to hit people. This shows that...she has him as her husband in her heart! You must know that Song Jin has always been calm and self-possessed. Qin Chi has already seen it before, and there are really not many things that can make her lose her composure. When he thought that Song Jin was angry because of him, Qin Chi looked at Song Xiu no longer so angry and decided to give her a big gift later. At this time, Mrs. Liu asked Song Xiu to push her, and then rushed out to settle the score with Song Xiu. The others put down Qin Chi''s things and quickly retreated. Qin Chi stepped forward to Song Jin. He sat next to Song Jin and held her slightly cold hand. "Madam, thank you for your hard work." "Um." Song Jin responded reluctantly, but his eyes fell on the big hand holding his own. It''s warm... Qin Chi''s eyes followed Song Jin''s and fell on the clasped hands, and he subconsciously tightened his fingers. "Ms. Lao is worried this time." When Qin Chi left the examination room, he only spoke to his master, packed up his things and hurried back to Yixian County. He was thinking about Song Jin and wanted to see the child born. Unexpectedly, I met Mr. Qin and Mr. Qin on the way and naturally knew what happened at home. Qin Chi wrote down what Qin Mingsong did. If Qin Mingsong hadn''t specially written a letter back, given that Qinjiagou is a remote place in the mountains, the news of the fire in the examination room would not have spread back home so quickly. As for shopkeeper Jin and others. Maybe the news will come sooner. But they are all sensible people, and they will definitely not reveal unconfirmed news to Song Jin. The two of them said nothing more. Song Jin was tired and fell asleep soon after lying down. Qin Chi sat by the bed for a long time and tucked her into bed when he got up. After leaving the house, he went to Li''s house. Qin Chi came in wanting to apologize to his mother, but as soon as he came in, his eyes were attracted to the two small beds. When he got closer, he saw two sleeping little babies in their swaddling clothes. The newborn milk baby is a small ball. She wasn''t very good-looking, but Qin Chi looked left and right, but still felt like he couldn''t see enough. "Dalang, aren''t my eldest grandson and granddaughter good-looking?" Boss Qin came over happily, "Look at those eyebrows and the small mouth. They look more like grandpa." Qin Chi glanced back and said, "Dad, whether my son or daughter looks like my father, my mother, or my grandma, they will look the same. What I''m most afraid of is that they look like you..." "You brat, do you dare to kill me?" Boss Qin raised his hand as if to beat him. Mrs. Li chuckled, "Da Lang is right. It''s fine if the eldest grandson looks like you, but what if the granddaughter looks like you?" "That''s right. The eldest grandson is like me, but the granddaughter is better like grandma, beautiful and gentle." Boss Qin quickly changed his mind. Qin Chi thought of his wife''s stunning appearance, and then looked at his mother. After comparing, Qin Chi thought that her daughter should look like her own mother. His wife looks the most like him. The three of them started chatting about the two milk babies for quite a while. When Qin Chi looked tired, Mrs. Li said worriedly: "Chi''er is tired, do you want to go and rest first? I''m afraid your room won''t work now, so go sleep in Erlang''s room." "Mom, do you want to build a new yard?" Qin Chi had long wanted to build a house to live in, but Mr. Li didn''t agree. Li did not agree with this and said: "You are not at home all the time. Why are you building a new yard? This is good. It is enough to live in. When Erlang and Sanlang grow up in a few years, your grandparents will naturally propose to expand the house. "This new house was never about money. The whole family lives together and there is no separation. It is difficult to clean a new house. Li didn''t want to break the current calm, she felt it was good now. Seeing that Li did not agree, Qin Chi said nothing more. In rural villages, every household has a large family living together. For those who have few people in the family or are widowed, let alone seeking peace and quiet, on the contrary, there is no guarantee of safety. These people are vulnerable groups and are most likely to be targeted. Li asked about Qin Chi''s exam fire again. Qin Chi talked about the fire. No one was killed, but one candidate was burned. The candidate was extremely stubborn and said he would rather be burned to death than give up the exam. It was Xuezheng who ordered the government officials to drag people out by force. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The result is invalid, but at least I still have life. "The rumors about how many people died are all rumors." Qin Chi came out of the examination room and the secret guard told him the situation. Residents around the fire that night saw it. Word quickly spread. All kinds of rumors came out, not to mention just a few people died, there were also rumors that even the examiner was burned to death. Anyway, there are all kinds of outrageous things. After hearing this, Mrs. Li understood, "Then why is your uncle so eager to write a letter? You really want to ask about his mother''s injury?" "Who knows what he is thinking." Qin Chi replied calmly. He glanced at Boss Qin again and said nothing more. Qin Chi knew very well what Qin Mingsong was thinking. In this family, Qin Mingsong doesn''t want anyone to come forward, especially when he still needs to rely on family financial support. And it was more than a month after I went to Fucheng that I wrote a letter asking about Mr. Liu''s injury. Who would believe this filial piety? Qin Chi stayed for a while longer before going out leisurely. Avoiding the others, he went to the Qin family''s backyard. He called Qin Yi out. "When you rent a carriage and come to your house, say that Qin Mingsong sent her to take Song Xiu to Fucheng. Then arrange a place for her that is close to Ziyang Academy, and then notify Qin Mingsong." Qin Chi finished the instructions indifferently, and at the end he added, "Let someone tell him that it was me, the nephew, who couldn''t bear the separation of their husband and wife for too long, so I specially gave him a surprise. There is no need to thank me." "I obey my orders." Qin Yi took pity on Qin Mingsong. Who is not good to offend? Do you have to offend the young master? Song Xiu is like a **** stirrer, he will stir up trouble wherever he goes. It would take three days and three nights to talk about Qin Mingsong''s love affair in the city. In addition, Song Xiu was jealous by nature, so it would be strange if he left Qin Mingsong without disturbing Qin Mingsong. Qin Chi thought for a moment and then said, "Wait a minute, I''ll get something for you and have someone give it to Song Xiu secretly." He remembered that in order to cope with some people''s investigation, he had obtained new household registration for the two sisters. At that time, he had someone get it out for Song Jin. Song embroidery can only be done incidentally. Song Xiu, who has obtained a new household registration, will never admit his original identity no matter how stupid he is. Without worries, Song Xiu''s lethality will only be greater. (End of chapter) Chapter 115 Song Xiu went to Fucheng Chapter 115 Song Xiu goes to Fucheng Qin Chi sent Song Xiu away like this. For him, he was able to kill two birds with one stone. He could successfully pile up two shit-stirring sticks and allow Song Jin to confine himself without being disturbed. Song Xiu was so happy when she saw the carriage coming to pick her up that she packed her bags and left with the visitor without any suspicion. Originally, before Song Xiu left, he pretended that he wanted to say goodbye to Song Jin, but in fact, he wanted to show off to Song Jin. Unfortunately, Qin Chi, the short-lived ghost, blocked the door. He actually didn''t allow her to get close? ! The third member of the Qin family has no objection to this matter. On the other hand, Old Liu was cursing, and Old Qin was very confused. But the carriage came to pick him up, and old man Qin went to ask specifically. The man who came said that he was invited by Qin Mingsong, and he didn''t know the rest. Old man Qin didn''t know what his younger son wanted to do, so he couldn''t stop him rashly. When Song Jin woke up, Song Xiu had already left the Qin family, and Qin Chi truthfully told Song Jin about his household registration. Song Jin acquiesced to Qin Chi''s approach. "Don''t you object to her leaving Qinjiagou?" Qin Chi was very concerned about Song Jin''s thoughts. Song Jin pondered for a moment and said, "Didn''t you give her the new household registration? Even if she meets an acquaintance, no one can do anything to her as long as she doesn''t admit it. I believe she won''t be stupid enough to reveal her family status while walking outside." There are thousands of similar people in the world. What''s more, Song Xiu''s current personality and temperament are very different from those before she was married. Furthermore, it has been nearly a year since something happened to the Song family. As long as Song Xiu doesn''t inquire about the Song family''s case, no one should pay attention to her. "I''ll arrange for someone to keep an eye on her." Qin Chi sent people to Fucheng because he wanted to cause trouble for Qin Mingsong, but he didn''t want Song Xiu''s head to get hot and his wife to be affected. In Qin Chi''s eyes, Song Xiu was a drag on Song Jin. His wife couldn''t do anything due to her blood relationship, so he could do it for her if necessary. Song Jin was lying on the bed with his head and forehead wiped on his head. He looked sideways at Qin Chi, who was sitting calmly not far away. Song Jin chose to change the topic and said, "Why didn''t my husband wait until the results were released before going home?" "Looking at the rankings is far less important than the wife and children." Qin Chi''s clear eyebrows were quite seductive. Song Jin only felt that his gaze was a little burning. She avoided his sight as if escaping. I just dont know why, but my heartbeat is a little faster. Qin Chi got up and came to the bed, lying sideways next to Song Jin, which surprised Song Jin. "My husband looks very tired, why don''t you go to Erlang''s room and rest for a while?" Song Jin moved inside. Qin Chi closed his eyes and didn''t move, "I''m very tired. I hurried back all night, for fear of missing..." But it was a little late after all. He wasn''t there when she needed him. After hearing what he said, Song Jin didn''t want to disturb him anymore and let him lie down and take a nap next to him. During dinner, Yinlong came in with Song Jin''s food. This was a meal prepared alone for the confinement woman. The combination of meat and vegetables is mainly light. To say how delicious it is, it''s really not delicious. When Yinlong saw Qin Chi lying on the bed, her face showed joy. She was happy for Song Jin. If the relationship between the couple is good, life will be much easier. Song Jin looked at Yinlong and signaled her to put down her meal first and not to wake Qin Chi. Yinlong thought for a while and warmed the food first. When it was getting dark, Qin Chi woke up from his sleep and learned from Yinlong that Song Jin hadn''t eaten dinner yet for fear of waking him up. I don''t know whether to feel sad or happy. Yinlong went to the kitchen to help Qin Chi bring the food, taking Song Jin with him. I had a meal with Song Jin. Qin Chi then took a change of clothes and left the house. When I went out to the yard, I saw the family members discussing around a ewe. This ewe had just given birth to a lamb and was at the time of milk production. It was brought to her by someone from Jifang Pharmacy. Without asking, everyone knew that they were going to use goat milk to feed the twins. "Dalang, are you awake?" Qin Laoer asked carelessly. Qin Chi smiled and said: "I''m awake, I just had dinner. Second uncle, what are you guys looking at?" "Your wife asked someone to buy a milk goat. Do you want to milk the two milk dumplings now? They were crying just now. My wife said they were probably hungry." Qin Laoer was eager to give it a try. Xiao Liu was faster than he could speak and had already gone to the kitchen to bring a clean basin, "Who''s going to squeeze? Wash your hands first before squeezing." Qin Laoer hasn''t said anything yet. Sanlang was the first one to jump out, "Mom! I''ll do it, I''ll do it. If there''s too much, can I take half a bowl? I''ve grown so old and I still don''t know what goat''s milk tastes like." "You brat, you drank too." Qin Laoer slapped Sanlang on the head. Saburo immediately denied it, "Impossible! I don''t remember drinking at all." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Xiao Liu giggled, "You were also a milk baby when you drank it. It''s a pity that your grandma secretly sold the milk goat and gave it to my uncle for money in exchange for repairs." As soon as these words came out, there was silence all around. The adults and children in the family all looked at Old Liu who was sitting beside him. Old Mrs. Liu was so embarrassed that she felt guilty and wanted to curse, "You little brat, that sheep won''t produce milk when it''s old, so I won''t sell it and keep it for free." No one answered Mr. Liu''s words. Who didnt know about that back then? In order to keep her son healthy, Ms. Li specially asked Mr. Qin to find a milk-producing ewe. Mr. Liu only raised it for a year and a half before he sold it to Mr. Liu. Qin Chi couldn''t help but laugh. When the second aunt wasn''t quarreling with his mother, it was still very interesting. She pretended not to hear and went to the kitchen. Erlang ran over to help heat the hot water. After Qin Chi finished taking a bath. The goat milk in the yard was half filled. The Qin family also knows how to boil goat milk. Adding a few almonds can remove the smell. There was a lot of goat''s milk, and the amount was given to the twins. The children in the family also got some of it, and one person got more than half of the bowl. The sheep was taken to a newly built thatched house in the backyard by Boss Qin like a treasure, and the simple door was locked. This time, both adults and children will probably be wary of Old Liu. The Qin family had a happy night without Song Xiu, who was restless at home. Fucheng the next day. Qin Chi''s people took Song Xiu to a house near Ziyang Academy, saying that Qin Mingsong rented it for her and had paid three months'' rent. Everything inside is fully prepared. There''s no need for Song Xiu to worry, as long as she knows how to cook, she won''t starve to death. Qin Mingsong has just finished class. Then someone came to deliver the message, "Qin Xiucai, there is a young lady at the gate who says she is your wife and wants you to go out." "My wife?" Qin Mingsong was stunned. Shouldn''t people be in Qinjiagou? Qin Mingsong remained calm, and the other students were extremely curious after hearing this. Qin Mingsong put the book box for class back in the dormitory, and then hurried to the gate. Several classmates who heard this looked at each other. "You think Qin Mingsong''s wife must be so stunning that he is willing to give up so many girls who admire him, including many ladies from official families." "I wonder if I can just go and see it?" "Follow up quickly!" "I''m different from you. I don''t want to see Brother Qin''s wife, I just happen to go to the door." "What a coincidence, I happened to be on the way too." "Same, same on the way..." Chapter 116 Adding bricks and mortar Chapter 116 Adding bricks and mortar Qin Mingsong originally thought that some woman was pretending to be his wife and asked him to meet at the gate. When he saw the familiar slim figure at the door, even if he was wearing a curtain hat, he could still tell it was Song Xiu. Song embroidery is carefully dressed. Choosing to wear a curtain hat instead of a power fence was also a bit of caution on Song Xiu''s part. Some people may not be able to tell the difference between a curtain hat and a bonnet, but they all know that it is a hat used by women to hide their faces from the prying eyes of passers-by when traveling. The skirt of the curtain hat is only as long as the neck, which can expose the face slightly, and it will not block the woman''s exquisite makeup and gorgeous clothes, which satisfies women''s love for beauty. In contrast, the hat body of the curtain is made of rattan, and the edges are decorated with soft curtains. Generally, the soft curtains are larger in size and hang down to the knees when worn to cover the body. Song Jin wears Mi Li every time he travels. Song Xiu originally wanted to surprise Qin Mingsong. But Qin Mingsong was more frightened when he saw her. "Xiu''er?!" Qin Mingsong strode over, "Why did Xiu''er come here?" "Didn''t your husband send someone to pick me up?" Song Xiu asked in confusion. Qin Mingsong''s heart tightened. Is someone plotting against him? "Wow, that''s Brother Qin''s wife? You can tell she''s not bad looking just by looking at her graceful figure." "She must be a beauty!" "Wearing a curtain hat, we can''t see very clearly." "You idiot, you don''t know anything. This kind of looming, half-covered thing is really beautiful." "Go, go, why don''t you go up and say hello? It''s too far away so you can''t see clearly." Qin Mingsong knew that those classmates were following him, but he didn''t look back and quickly picked up Song Xiu and left. Song Xiu followed Qin Mingsong shyly and left, looking back at the classmates, "Husband, are those your classmates? Why don''t we say hello?" "Let''s talk about it when we have time. I still have something to ask you." Qin Mingsong wanted to know who brought Song Xiu to Fucheng in his name. When you are far away, no one pays attention. Qin Mingsong then asked: "When Xiu''er came to my place, did the family say anything?" He didn''t say he wasn''t going to pick someone up, but instead talked about other things. Only then did Song Xiu remember that the person who brought her to Fucheng gave her a new household registration and a letter. The signature on the letter said it was for Qin Mingsong. "I was asked to bring you a letter." Song Xiu took out the letter from her sleeve pocket and asked, "Husband, do you want to go back to the rented house first?" "A rented house?!" Qin Mingsong''s pupils shrank. He also wanted to take advantage of the inconvenience of accommodation and send Song Xiu back to Qinjiagou! He hurriedly opened the envelope and took out the letter inside. When he took a look, Qin Mingsong immediately became furious, "Qin Qi''an?" It turned out to be him who was causing trouble behind his back! Qin Mingsong is tolerant. He was clearly in a rage, but he could still hold back his temper, "Did something happen at home?" "Oh, it''s just that the sick boy is... okay. He hurried back from the provincial capital. My sister gave birth to twins." Song Xiu told Qin Mingsong what happened at his home in front of Fucheng. Say something to the east, say something to the west. Qin Mingsong roughly put it together and knew that a lot of things happened at home. Follow Song Xiu to a nearby rented house. After carefully checking the house, the bedroom was complete with pillows and bedding, and there was no shortage of other daily necessities. Even the rice, flour, grains and oils stored in the kitchen were enough to last three months. The person who arranged it was very considerate. Qin Mingsong couldn''t help but think of what Qin Chi said in his letter. It was said that he was moved by the fact that he was studying in Fucheng and was still thinking about the situation at home, so he specially sent Song Xiu to meet him and arranged three months of food, clothing, housing and transportation. When he learned that Li had fainted and Song Jin had given birth to twins ahead of schedule, Qin Mingsong knew something was wrong. In fact, he didn''t understand why at the time. He wrote the letter as soon as he heard the news. Qin Mingsong turned to look at the delighted Song Xiu. Song Xiu returned to the house and had already taken off the curtain and hat. Zheng was leaning delicately beside Qin Mingsong, thinking about their business with a happy face, "I want to arrange a study room for my husband, so that you can have a quiet room to study. As for me, I will polish my ink for my husband." " The red sleeves add fragrance, and the beauty is by the side. There''s nothing a man doesn''t want. Qin Mingsong has no such thoughts at the moment and is thinking about how to remedy the situation. "I will write a letter of apology later and ask someone to send it back to Dalang." Song Xiu didn''t understand. Qin Mingsong said guiltily, "I didn''t expect that my letter would cause your sister to give birth prematurely, cause my sister-in-law to faint, and make my family worry in vain." "It''s not your husband''s fault." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Xiu was not happy, "You just wrote a letter to the family because you cared about your family. If you don''t tell this news, it will reach Qinjiagou sooner or later. Without this letter, it will be said that your husband no longer cares about family ties, and that you are here." Fucheng heard the news early but didnt write home to say anything? Besides, arent my sister-in-law and my sister okay? "Xiu''er still knows how to be a husband best." Qin Mingsong hugged Song Xiu and returned to the room, whispering a few words in Song Xiu''s ear, which made Song Xiu''s face dyed with spring color, and she gave him a look with silky eyebrows. Qin Mingsong did not go back to the academy that night and rested directly here. Early the next morning, Qin Mingsong went to the academy. Song Xiu woke up late. When she went to the kitchen to boil hot water and wash her face, Song Xiu realized that she had a lot of housework to do, and she even had to cook three meals a day. If Song Xiu had the skill of cooking, he would not have been chased all over the courtyard by Mr. Liu and beaten, and he would have had to take his own money to buy food on the street. Just came out of the alley and came to the street corner. There will be vendors setting up stalls here in the morning to sell breakfast. Most of the students from nearby buy food here. I have to say that the house Qin Chi rented for Song Xiu was very close to Ziyang Academy. I sat down at a stall and ordered a bowl of noodles. Song Xiu heard the people at the next table chatting. "Brother, did you know that Qin Mingsong got another beauty yesterday? This time it happened so hard. The beauty threatened to be his wife, haha." "Is there still this matter?" There was a young man next door who was very interested, "The second young lady who came to the county magistrate''s house last time didn''t even dare to say she was his wife. Which family does this girl belong to?" "I don''t know. I heard that he took her away." "Qin Mingsong has such bad luck. There are beauties one after another, such as officials, daughters of rich families, courtesans, and even the head of the mountain is said to be very fond of him..." "Ahem, don''t talk nonsense, it''s still outside." "What''s this? These charming deeds have been spread throughout the academy." After finishing speaking, one of them then said to the other, "Okay, okay, eat quickly, or you will be late if you linger any longer!" The two dropped the settlement money, picked up the cloth bags containing the books, and ran quickly towards the academy. This made Song Xiu just about to stand up and ask them about his idea, but it died before it could be implemented. At this time, Song Xiu was so angry that he didn''t even eat the noodles he ordered. He left the money for the noodles and wanted to go to the academy to inquire about it, but after walking a few steps, he sat back down. He ate the noodles with his head down. It tastes like eating an enemy, and its face is very ferocious. Fortunately, the curtain hat covered most of the face, so passersby were not frightened. The two scholars who were talking came to the corner and did not continue to Ziyang Academy. Instead, they went to a certain stronghold to return to their lives. These two people were deliberately arranged by Qin Chi. Chapter 117 Xiao Sanyuan Chapter 117 Little Sanyuan "This woman is very tolerant." Qin Chi received the news from Fucheng two days later. When Song Xiu learned that Qin Mingsong''s peach blossoms were flourishing, he surprisingly didn''t make a fuss. She pretended not to know about it and got along with Qin Mingsong. She even had the nerve to spend 300 yuan a month on asking the woman next door to help with laundry and cooking. Living a comfortable life? Qin Chi looked at Qin Yi next to him, "I usually look at her like a madman, why isn''t she crazy?" "I don''t know about this subordinate. Why don''t you go ask your lady for advice?" Qin Yicheng suggested. Qin Chi did not hide the fact that Song Xiu was sent to Fucheng. It''s only been two or three days, so there''s no rush. The Qin family lives very peacefully. Even Mrs. Liu no longer curses people these days. She happily goes outside every day and talks about how cute her great-grandson is. On the day of the child''s third bath, someone quietly delivered two longevity locks of exquisite craftsmanship. No one said who sent it. But Dafang knew that it was sent by He Lianpu. After the beginning of spring, He Lianpu went to Qiyun Mountain, and his entourage followed him. This time he learned that the twins of dragon and phoenix were born, so he specially sent Changshousuo over. A gong sounded outside. From the entrance of the village to the front of the Qin family''s house. "Good news! Good news!" "Congratulations to Mr. Qin for winning the first place in the high school examination!" The two officials who came to announce the good news carried a gong into the village to celebrate. After walking a few steps, they rang it, attracting a group of villagers to watch. Both adults and children followed to Lao Qin''s house. When Old Man Qin heard the noise, he ran out to the courtyard gate with only one shoe on, "What are you talking about? What are you talking about? My eldest doctor has been chosen?" "You won! Mr. Qin, congratulations." An official smiled and congratulated. Old Qin was overjoyed and quickly led the officials into the house, "The two officials came into the house to sit and drink water." "I happen to be thirsty, so I''d like to thank you first." Two officers entered the house. Old Mrs. Liu was still leaning on her crutches, limping out, and hurriedly asked Mrs. Lin to bring out a bowl of tea, "Bring the tea to my room." "Okay mother." Mrs. Lin went. Xiao Liu was also happy, "I''m here to help." After a while, the whole family gathered together, and everyone was beaming with joy. When Qin Chibu came out, the two officials were delighted again. Qin Chi gave each of them a big red envelope, "Thank you for your hard work, you two, stay for a meal before leaving." "No need for this, just drink some water." The official replied with a smile. It''s better not to offend scholars with such a great reputation. If they really stay to eat, they will be disrespectful. They have worked hard to come here to announce the good news, and they are just asking for a reward. Song Jin in the room heard the news and would be lying if he said he wasn''t surprised. "Congratulations to the little lady who came first in the college examination." It was only today that Yinlong found out that Qin Chi was so good at studying. He won three cases in a row and actually won the "little three yuan". Song Jin''s eyebrows were gentle, "It''s quite surprising." In this world, a wife is valued based on her husband. The married man is promising, and as a wife, he will be proud of himself. Song Jin raised her eyes and looked at Yinlong with a smile, "Aunt Long, I''ll add some more dishes tonight and reward everyone with one month''s wages." "That''s good! I''ll send the news back right away." Yinlong replied happily. After Yinlong left, the officials had been sent away, but Lao Qin''s family was still very lively. Even the clan leader and village chief came over, as well as some elders from the clan. Old man Qin was very proud of the spring breeze. It was as if he was the one who won the prize. Everyone took turns complimenting and congratulating each other, which was more popular than Qin Chi sitting quietly aside. Boss Qin, a father, sat aside and laughed innocently. When others said something to him, he responded innocently, feeling a little silly with joy. The man was entertaining guests in the main room, and the woman was serving tea and water. The children were also very happy and were playing in the yard. The aunties from the village also came and were surrounding Mr. Liu to give them compliments. People who were jealous of Mr. Liu in the past are still jealous, but they will not choose to get into trouble today. "I heard that the elder man''s wife gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, but I haven''t seen them before." "The elder man''s wife is not here either?" "I''m in confinement." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "This is such a good life. The second year after I got married, I became a scholar''s wife and gave birth to a pair of twins." A young daughter-in-law said enviously. There was a rumor before that the Song sisters were a pair of lucky girls, and they both married into the old Qin family, but those who were unlucky would not be able to afford it. For this reason, the old Liu went to the old blind man to ask for a talisman to be cracked. No one fully believed this. You must know that the Qin family has a lot of troubles. The fourth daughter-in-law had a miscarriage, and Mrs. Liu broke her leg. Suddenly an aunt said with emotion: "It still depends on whether you can bear it. Da Lang can obviously bear it. Ever since he married a blessed daughter, good things have happened one after another. How long has it been? New wife." Not even a year after entering the school, he has become a scholar, and he has a son and a daughter. " Everyone agreed with this. Then the aunt looked at old Mrs. Liu again, with a critical look in her eyes, "Mrs. Liu, you can''t do it anymore. You are so lucky in life, you can''t hold it back." When she said this, she also glanced at Old Liu''s broken leg. Old Liu''s smile faltered for an instant. Not to mention that some people in the village have not forgotten what the old blind man said, but the old Liu family remembers it very deeply. It''s not like Old Liu didn''t go to see the old blind man. But it was effective for everyone else after drinking the talisman water, but it didn''t work for her. The old blind man said that it was because she was unlucky in life. Fortunately, she only had a broken leg after drinking the talisman water. If she didn''t drink it, she might have lost her life. No one in Old Liu dared to mention this matter. Now that she was mentioned in public, Mrs. Liu felt guilty, but she kept a straight face and said, "I have a great-grandson and a great-granddaughter. Both my younger son and my eldest grandson have won the scholarship. If this is a bad blessing, then What are you?" Theres really no way to refute it! This person is afraid of comparison. It doesn''t look good when compared to others. In this village, only the patriarch of the Qin family was a boy, and the only two talented people came from the old Liu family. Everyone looked embarrassed and immediately turned to other topics with winks. Some of the younger daughters-in-law in the clan went to live with the eldest family member, Mrs. Li. I just want to hug the twins, be happy, and look forward to giving birth to a pair. Fucheng Ziyang Academy. When Qin Mingsong was in class with the Master, he learned from the Master that Qin Chi had won the first prize in the hospital examination. Ordinary court case leaders would not mention it. I specifically mentioned that it was precisely because of "Little Sanyuan" that Huizhou Prefecture became famous this time because of this student, and Tachuan Academy in Yixian County also attracted the attention of many people. Is there any academy that can teach "Little San Yuan" that is inferior? This year''s Tachuan Academy entrance examination will definitely be quite lively. Qin Mingsong smiled, but couldn''t help feeling jealous. I left the academy and went to rent a house. I happened to hear Song Xiu smashing the tea bowl angrily in the room, "You have been selected as a scholar?! Why?!... Why doesn''t that sick man die!..." Chapter 118 Make an appointment after dusk Chapter 118 A date after dusk Qin Mingsong stepped into the house. Song Xiu was surprised, "Husband, husband, I am...I am angry for you." After saying this, she threw herself in front of Qin Mingsong, "My husband is the most powerful. I don''t know how many times better than that sick man. Hum, you will definitely win the imperial examination this year." Only Song Xiu could tell lies with open eyes. Qin Mingsong didn''t know whether to believe it or not, but he didn''t say much. In other words, Song Xiu cursed Qin Chi, which strangely made Qin Mingsong feel at ease, but said: "What nonsense are you talking about? Just talk about these words in private. Don''t spread them outside, so as not to attract other people''s attention." joke." "Xiu''er knows, but I just can''t bear to nag a few words in front of my husband." Song Xiu hugged Qin Mingsong''s hands and began to feel uneasy. Qin Mingsong liked this very much. After a while, he was brought to the bed, and they started to have **** before it got dark. The spy who was secretly paying attention to this room was speechless for a moment. This talented Qin scholar, who was so famous outside, turned out to be so arrogant when he came home. "Bang bang." There was a knock on the door, and it was quite urgent. This made Qin Mingsong, who was interrupted midway, look a little embarrassed. When he calmed down and went to open the door, he saw the maid next to Bai Cuiwei. Then without saying anything, the maid just stuffed a letter to Qin Mingsong. After stuffing the letter, the person ran away. Qin Mingsong opened the letter and quickly read the contents, frowning. The above is a poem, which basically means breaking up love and saying goodbye. Did he get into a temper when he heard his wife came to Fucheng? "Who found the husband?" Song Xiu leaned against the doorframe charmingly and looked at him with a smile. Qin Mingsong put the letter in his pocket without leaving any trace, "It''s a letter from a classmate in the academy, asking me to go back to the dormitory." "It''s getting dark." Song Xiu complained angrily, "Can''t we talk about it tomorrow if we have something to do?" "Xiu''er is obedient." Qin Mingsong checked that there was nothing wrong with his clothes, and then hurried out. When going out. Song Xiu put on a veil and followed Qin Mingsong. Not long after, she saw a carriage at the entrance of the alley. A maid stood anxiously outside the car. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Qin Mingsong coming out. Song Xiu saw Qin Mingsong standing beside the carriage from a distance and said a few words. He was too far away and could not hear clearly what was said. Then, Qin Mingsong got on the carriage. The maid sat on the shaft of the carriage, and the driver drove away. Song Xiu couldn''t catch up. Even walking on two feet cannot keep up with the speed of the carriage. "Damn vixen, you know she''s a married man but you still hook up with her." Song Xiu was so angry that she jumped on her feet, her eyes full of jealousy. Just at this moment, a carriage passed by Song Xiu. When Song Xiu looked at the driver, he turned out to be an acquaintance. He was the one who went to Qinjiagou to pick her up, "Hey, uncle, please wait." "You are..." The driver was confused. "You went to Qinjiagou to pick up my carriage a few days ago, do you remember? I want to rent your carriage now. The price is easy to negotiate." Song Xiu came up and opened the curtain of the carriage. Seeing that there was no one inside, she urged the carriage driver without waiting for his consent. He quickly caught up with the carriage in front of him. The coachman was Qin Chi''s man, and he was ordered to help Song Xiu in trouble, so he naturally did as he was told. Soon he caught up with Qin Mingsong''s carriage. Mainly because one wanted to catch up and the other wanted time alone, so the speed was not very fast. The carriage in front crossed the academy and came to a hexagonal viewing pavilion. Then Qin Mingsong got out of the car, and then reached out to help a woman get out of the car. The woman''s hair is like dyed ink, her long skirt is like floating clouds, and she has a scholarly air all over her body, like a beauty stepping out of a painting. The carriage that Song Xiu was following had stopped a long time ago. She followed secretly and saw Qin Mingsong helping the woman out of the car. She also saw the woman''s face clearly. Song Xiu was stunned for a moment. Song Xiu met Bai Cuiwei in his previous life. I heard that his father was a great Confucian and came from a scholarly family with a good reputation. After getting married, it was like having twins: a boy and a girl. But I didn''t hear who he was married to. I only knew that he was his father''s student. Since the two met after dusk. He sent the maid and the coachman to stay away, and then walked into the viewing pavilion one after another. At first glance, they seem to be observing etiquette, but upon closer inspection, you will find that it is unusual. The two seem to be a couple who are having an quarrel. One was losing his temper. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! One is coaxing. Even when Qin Mingsong coaxes others, he does not show humility and bows his head. He is quite proud of a scholar and has a noble attitude. It is exactly the cool look that most women like. Some distance away from the viewing pavilion, Song Xiu did not hear the exchange between the two clearly. In the end, Qin Mingsong made a gesture of bowing and apologizing, turning around as if he was about to step out of the pavilion. Just reached the steps. Bai Cuiwei suddenly gave up her reserve and hugged Qin Mingsong from behind. She faintly heard her crying and asked Qin Mingsong not to leave her. Qin Mingsong made a gesture of rejection without actually pushing the person away. Without words, a drama of deep sadomasochism could be seen. The spies watching in the dark were very happy, and then looked at Song Xiu who was hiding behind the tree, his face twisted with jealousy. Song Xiu suddenly remembered that Song Jin once said that Qin Mingsong raised Washi and gave birth to twins. Could it be that the outer chamber refers to Bai Cuiwei? Didn''t Bai Cuiwei give birth to a pair of twins, a dragon and a phoenix, in her previous life? impossible! How could the daughter of a great Confucian scholar be used as a concubine? This was absolutely impossible. But the man and woman hugging each other in the viewing pavilion couldn''t help but Song Xiu pretended to be deaf and dumb. The two said it was okay, but even the three-year-old child didn''t believe it. Bai Cuiwei actually took the initiative to kiss Qin Mingsong! "What are you doing?!" Song Xiu finally couldn''t help but rushed out, grabbed Bai Cuiwei''s hair, raised her hand and slapped her across the face, "Bitch! Are you so in need of a man for hooking up with a married man?" That slap was a slap with all his strength, which made Bai Cuiwei''s ears buzz and her mind went blank for a moment. Qin Mingsong grabbed Song Xiu and subconsciously protected Bai Cuiwei behind him. This irritated Song Xiu even more, and his eyes were red with anger. "Qin Mingsong! You just got out of my bed one moment, and you''re kissing another woman the next. Are you worthy of me?" Song Xiu wanted to throw Qin Mingsong away, and continued to pounce on Bai Cuiwei, pretending to hit her, "This **** fox! If you are in the mood to seduce a man, you deserve a beating!" "That''s enough Song Xiu, you''re like a shrew now! Where was your gentleness and kindness before? Don''t forget, I didn''t want you and me to get married, but as long as you keep yourselves, the position of the first wife will always be yours, and no one can take it from you. Walk." Qin Mingsong spoke clearly and clearly. If you don''t want to make a big joke, you must not let the two fight. We can only cut through the mess quickly. Qin Mingsong said calmly: "Xiu''er, I married you because of my parents'' orders, so I feel ashamed of her... If you can''t accept it, you can ask me to make peace with you." He spoke calmly. There was no sign of anger, but it put a lot of pressure on Song Xiu. It was true that Qin Mingsong refused to marry at the beginning. Qin Mingsong mentioned the divorce again and instantly stopped Song Xiu from making a fuss. Reconciliation? This is something Song Xiu has never considered. Chapter 119 He is indeed a talented person Chapter 119 He is indeed a genius Qin Mingsong turned his back to Bai Cuiwei. Bai Cuiwei couldn''t see Qin Mingsong''s expression. She couldn''t help but feel sad because he said that the position of his original wife was always Song Xiu''s. However, she also felt heartbroken when she heard that Qin Mingsong had resisted for her, but could not withstand the fate of his parents. It was obvious that they had a heart-to-heart talk with each other. He was only one step away from proposing marriage, but when he returned home, he had an extra wife. Bai Cuiwei was unwilling to accept it. And Song Xiu was indeed frightened by Qin Mingsong''s harmony. At this time, Bai Cuiwei''s maid rushed over and stood in front of Bai Cuiwei. Qin Mingsong just looked back at Bai Cuiwei and gave Bai Cuiwei a deep look, without leaving a single word, but that look was full of sadness and helplessness, as well as a determination to cut off the ties of love. Qin Mingsong turned around and grabbed Song Xiu''s wrist and left. Song Xiu was about to say something, but when Qin Mingsong looked at her with cold and sharp eyes, she suddenly didn''t dare to say anything. The spy watching from the dark felt regretful. This Qin Mingsong has some skills in controlling people''s hearts, and he caught Song Xiu at once, and the Miss Bai family didn''t make any fuss. How should she write it when she reports back to the young master? Anyway, it didnt meet expectations. The spy signaled to the coachman to drive the empty carriage away first. So when Song Xiu and Qin Mingsong came over, they saw the empty stone road without the carriage that Song Xiu mentioned. Song Xiu was stunned, "Where''s the car?" "I''m afraid I''m leaving. It''s not far from the place we rent, and we can walk back before dark." Qin Mingsong took the lead. Song Xiu quickly followed him, "Husband? I just... I didn''t think about getting divorced just now." "Xiu''er suddenly seemed very strange to me. The previous meekness and weakness were gone. This made me wonder whether everything you once said was partly true and partly false, or maybe you married me in the first place. Does the Qin family have an ulterior motive? " Qin Mingsong stopped, suddenly turned around, and looked at Song Xiu with suspicious eyes. "No!" Song Xiu was shocked. This reaction made Qin Mingsong even more suspicious. Qin Mingsong had doubts about the origin of the two sisters, but his father said that he would tell him in the future. Song Xiu lowered her head to avoid his gaze, and when she raised her head again, she was filled with tears, "Shouldn''t your husband explain that woman?" What''s the purpose? Naturally, she married to escape sin. However, this matter cannot be mentioned. Although Song Xiu was panicked, she was still a little quick-witted and immediately mentioned the private meeting between Qin Mingsong and the woman just now. Qin Mingsong was silent and looked back at Song Xiu. I accidentally saw Bai Cuiwei sneaking up not far away. Qin Mingsong''s eyes flickered, then he looked at Song Xiu with a very unfamiliar look, and said frankly: "Xiu''er may not know it, but I love Miss Bai first, and I know you later. When I was about to go to Miss Bai''s house to propose marriage, I suddenly received a letter from home saying that a marriage had been arranged for me. I hurried home I refused to marry, but my parents forced me to do so due to filial piety, so I had no choice but to comply. "Yes, but you have already married me." Song Xiu was very panicked for some reason. Perhaps Qin Mingsong''s attitude was something Song Xiu didn''t expect. Qin Mingsong said helplessly: "Yes, since I promised to marry you, I will not abandon you all the time. That is not what a gentleman does. Therefore, I have made it clear to Miss Bai that I have no fate with her in this life. I only hope that she will If I can find my right husband again, I will be happy for the rest of my life. I will devote myself to studying and have no intention of thinking about him again. "Actually, there''s no need to worry about Xiu''er. Miss Bai and I are incompatible with each other. Maybe now is the best ending..." Qin Mingsong turned around forbearingly, "He can''t live without love and love. There is no place in the world for him to miss lovesickness." After saying this, Qin Mingsong strode away. Song Xiu was stunned for a long time, then suddenly came to his senses and chased after him. Bai Cuiwei, who was eavesdropping, burst into tears. She couldn''t even stand still, but her maid held her back. The spy in the dark quickly took a small notebook to record something, thinking that this was really **** awesome. The previous words are just foreshadowing, and the last line of poetry is the essence and the finishing touch. One sentence expresses how desperate he is that he no longer has hope for the future, and also hints at the complete hopelessness of love. Which boudoir woman can withstand this? Doesn''t this make the woman feel sorry for him and love him even more? You must tell Mr. Ming carefully and let him learn from it. Someone else is married and a child is born, but he has not yet found a wife! Wait until there is no one around. The spy came out of the darkness and said, "You are indeed a talented man. I admire him." Then the booklet sped up. It was delivered to Qin Chi early the next morning. Qin Chi''s mouth twitched. It wasn''t because the three people were fighting, but because of the spy''s comment, "Who is this? Why didn''t I know there were such lively people under my command?" "Reporting to the young master, he is Qin Ba." Qin Yi was hesitating whether to tell the young master. Hearing that he was going to Fucheng to handle this matter, Qin Ba volunteered to go just to watch the excitement. This is not what a qualified secret guard should think. Qin Yi lowered his head and said: "If you feel something is wrong, you can recall Qin Ba." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "No need, he did a good job." Qin Chi put the booklet in his sleeve pocket and decided to show it to Song Jin later so that she could have fun. Doctor Jing said that during the confinement period, keeping a good mood will help you recover quickly. Return to the house. Song Jin was sitting on the bed teasing the two little babies, with gentle eyes full of love. In front of two children. She took off her thick disguise and was no longer as real and beautiful as the clouds in the sky that could disappear at any time. Qin Chi took a few steps forward and joined in teasing the children. He stretched out his big hand to hook up his daughter''s little finger, and said again and again, "Madam, there is news from Fucheng, do you want to read it?" Song Jin finally raised his eyes to look at him. Qin Chi took out the brochure from his sleeve pocket and handed it to her. After Song Jin saw it, he said with emotion: "As expected of my uncle." Song Xiu can''t play it with his brain. But, is Song Xiu a normal person? At this time, Qin Chi heard someone calling him outside and could only suppress his desire to talk to Song Jin. When I went out, I saw a visitor. "Pray for peace!" Meng Qingrui strode over happily and patted Qin Chi on the shoulder, "What a good guy, little Sanyuan!" Qin Chi saw Le Yan and Lu Yanji next to Meng Qingrui again. The two of them came forward and bowed to Qin Chi. "Congratulations, best wishes." "As long as you are rich and noble, don''t forget each other." The three of them came here to give Qin Chi a gift, a double gift, to congratulate him on becoming a father and becoming a scholar. This time the three of them took the exam, Qin Chi got the top spot, Le Yan failed as expected, but Meng Qingrui unexpectedly got the last spot. Even though he was the last one, he was still on the list, and he is now a veritable scholar. It''s really unintentional. Meng Qingrui performed exceptionally without pressure. Outsiders all said that he got lucky because of shit, and even I couldn''t refute it. The master only said that he had good luck in the examination. The four of them were sitting in the main room drinking tea and chatting. When the three of them were about to leave. Lu Yanji then said to Qin Chi with a smile: "Qi''an has been home for a few days. The mountain chief asked me to tell you that he misses you very much." "The student is thinking about coming to chat with his old man tomorrow." Qin Chi replied with a smile. Lu Yanji was satisfied and could go back to do business. Chapter 120 Song Xiu spreads rumors Chapter 120 Song Xiu spreads rumors Qin Chi sent his classmates away. When I went back, I saw Mr. Liu carrying gifts back to the main room. Old Qin looked at it without saying a word. On the other hand, Boss Qin frowned and said, "Mom, there is a tonic for the elder man''s wife. I have to pick it out and give it to her." "Yes, mother, if I don''t make up for it, I won''t have enough milk to feed your two great-grandchildren." Xiao Liu helped. Old Mrs. Liu curled her lips and said, "We have a sheep at home." Do you think she is a fool? Xiao Liu is not stupid. They had no share in letting Old Liu move back. He quickly went up to Song Jin''s house, no matter what, and then winked at Qin Daya. So Xiao Liu and Qin Daya moved together. Mrs. Lin stepped forward to help. When Mr. Liu moved back to the main house, the remaining gifts were gone. "Where are the things?" Old Liu was so angry that he threw away his crutches. Old Qin and the others didn''t speak. Mrs. Liu walked around the main room, then limped to the door to check, "Second daughter-in-law! Third daughter-in-law! Where did they all die?" No matter how old Mr. Liu scolds him. Song Jin now looked at the pile of things on the table in his room, a little dumbfounded, "If grandma doesn''t pay attention, the second aunt and the third aunt will be separated." "That''s not okay. I gave it to Dalang." Xiao Liu waved her hands quickly. Lin was nervous but didn''t say anything. Qin Daya came to the door and watched the outside, for fear that Mr. Liu would come and steal something. In fact, today''s move is very unusual. Not many daughters-in-law dare to go against their mother-in-law. The majesty of the old Liu family is about to be wiped out. In other words, the daughters-in-law have become more and more courageous, and finally know how to resist appropriately, instead of just taking whatever the old Liu family says. Song Jin was noncommittal about this. She dared to confront Old Liu at the beginning because she did not regard Old Liu as her elder, nor did she think that she would stay in the Qin family for a long time. By this time, I had children and my thoughts changed accordingly. When everyone was looking at a table of things and didn''t know what to do, Yinlong went up to check it out and said, "Let me share it for you." So Yinlong picked out some dry goods that Song Jin could use, such as red dates, longans, dried yams and other dry goods. The cloth and cakes were divided between the two aunts. Then carefully select two or three items and send them to Mr. Li. As for tea, drinks, etc., Yinlong asked Xiao Liu to take them to Old Man Qin. Yinlong is so organized and organized. Everyone is satisfied. Little Liu even smiled with teeth and no eyes. Lin was also very happy holding the cloth and waiting. "When his brother-in-law was selected as a scholar, someone also sent a bunch of congratulatory gifts. Unfortunately, we only ate a piece of cake and didn''t see anything else." Xiao Liu sighed with emotion. This is really not nonsense. Mrs. Lin nodded, "My mother made clothes for my uncle with the cloth those people sent, and some of it was sent back to my mother''s house." The remaining part was naturally used by Old Liu and Old Man Qin. After they left, Yinlong gathered his things and said with a smile: "These two aunts from the little lady''s family are really wonderful people." "Everyone''s nature is flawed but not bad." Song Jin only gave one comment. Only when they have the old Mr. Liu to deal with together can the two of them work together. If there is no big mountain above their heads and they live under the same roof, there will definitely be a lot of small frictions. After a long time, there may be a lot of opinions. Yinlong glanced at the two sleeping milk babies on the bed, "Have the two babies been named?" "Not yet. My mother-in-law is still thinking about what the baby''s nickname will be." Song Jin didn''t say the baby''s name and it wasn''t their turn to choose it. The name was given by his uncle. Wealthy people are very particular about naming their children. They also need to have a highly respected eminent monk or Taoist priest read the birth date and birth date. After approving the birth date, they will also look at what is missing in the five elements, and then they will choose a name that is consistent with the birth date and has good meaning. Its not like a farmhouse in the countryside. Da Ya Er Ya, Da Nier Xiao Nier, Gou Sheng Gou Dan, Da Niu Er Gouzi and other names, whichever one comes to mind easily. For example, if someone stands in the center of the village and shouts "Er Gouzi", the person who responds will keep a bunch of them. But the country people have a saying that it is easy to make a living with a low reputation. Qin Chi came in and said that he would go to the academy later and that the next time he would come back would be when the child was one month old. "I just won the scholarship and there are still some favors in the county." There are also some matters that need to be dealt with. It is impossible to stay in Qinjiagou to accompany Song Jin for a long time. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin asked Yinlong to help pack some clothes for Qin Chi, "My husband is out, please pay attention to safety, and send a safe letter home when you have time." "I will." Qin Chi responded with a smile. Yinlong helped lift things outside. Leave time for the young couple to be alone. Qin Chi approached and opened his arms, trying to hug Song Jin. As a result, Song Jin avoided him first and distanced himself from him, "No! I haven''t bathed in a few days, and I always feel like I have a strange smell." It''s not that she doesn''t want to take a bath, but Yinlong doesn''t allow it. During the confinement period, she was not allowed to wash her hair or take a shower. She lay on the bed all day, and was only allowed to get out of bed and walk around for a while. "I don''t mind it." Qin Chi raised his eyebrows. Song Jin still stretched out his hand to block it, "I personally despise it." "That''s okay." Qin Chi looked regretful, and then he said, "Are you still paying attention to Fucheng? If you are, I will have someone send it back to you if there is any news." "good." Who doesnt want to watch it if its fun? According to Song Jin''s understanding of Song Xiu, Qin Mingsong would not be able to control her so easily. Or on the surface, Song Xiu will be well-behaved and calm for a few days, but it''s hard to say what she will do behind the scenes. Just as Song Jin guessed. It was half a month later. The rumor that Bai Cuiwei was seducing a married man spread throughout the streets and alleys, and naturally also reached Bai Mansion. Several masters of the Bai Mansion were furious after hearing this. Bai Cuihui was immediately banned, all the servants serving her were dealt with, and people were sent to find out who spread the rumors. The result was found on Song Xiu''s head. Bai Daru came to Qin Mingsong, "You should know what I meant to come to you." "This matter is not my wife''s fault...it''s me who didn''t restrain my wife well at home." When Qin Mingsong learned what Song Xiu had done, he was first shocked and then sincerely apologized. Finally, Song Xiu''s rhetoric was slightly modified, seemingly without any cover-up, because all of this can be traced. According to Qin Mingsong''s words, the current situation was caused by some combination of circumstances, and he had already made it clear to Bai Cuiwei. It was just that Bai Cuiwei suddenly came to him a few days ago, and the two of them were talking in the viewing pavilion, causing misunderstandings with his wife and so on. "It''s easy for people to make mistakes when they don''t think about it for a moment. Please forgive me, sir, for my humble ignorance. As a husband, I am willing to bear any punishment." Qin Mingsong not only did not put the blame on Song Xiu, but also took the initiative to clean up the mess for Song Xiu. He seemed to be reliable and responsible, and his words and deeds were somewhat upright and gentlemanly. If the target was not his daughter who he had carefully raised for more than ten years, Bai Daru would probably appreciate Qin Mingsong''s actions. But if it were his daughter whom he always loved, Bai Daru would feel ashamed and angry and heartbroken. His daughter''s reputation was bad, but the other party didn''t touch her body, and she looked so beautiful, who wouldn''t be upset. Chapter 121 Return to Qinjiagou Chapter 121 Return to Qinjiagou Huizhou Prefecture has a rich cultural atmosphere, and there are many Jinshi and Juren who specially came to settle here, including Bai Daru''s family, who moved to Huizhou from the capital more than ten years ago. Bai Daru wears a square scarf, a white face and a long beard, a plain robe, and a red belt around his waist. Being able to serve as the head of a college and practice education, his knowledge is naturally profound, and his concentration is also extraordinary. Together with the strong scholar''s atmosphere exuding between his brows, people can''t help but feel a sense of awe towards him. Judging from the Bai family''s investigation, what Qin Mingsong said was true. The gossip that Bai Cuiwei fell in love with Qin Mingsong spread in the academy for a long time. Everyone thought that Chief Bai wanted to recruit Qin Mingsong as his son-in-law. There are many envious and jealous people among them. Unexpectedly, it was suddenly reported that Qin Mingsong was getting married in the countryside. When others asked whether Qin Mingsong was true or false, Qin Mingsong also admitted it in public without any secret. As if other people''s admiration has nothing to do with him, he remains unmoved, which makes many people have a good impression of him. Bai Daru is not a person who expresses his anger without reason. Originally, he had paid some attention to Qin Mingsong, and he had given him some academic advice many times. After all, with Qin Mingsong''s knowledge, he was expected to win the exam this year. "Sir, the students will explain the rumor clearly." Qin Mingsong stood up and bowed his hands. Bai Daru stopped him, "You have never been implicated in this matter. If you stand up, it will only get darker and darker. Just pretend that you don''t know. The Bai Mansion will come forward to beat up a few rumors and ask them to take the initiative to say that they were raped by others." Buying and selling is just fabricating and slandering Wei''er." This approach can minimize the impact. If Qin Mingsong steps forward. To say it is a clarification is better to say it is adding insult to injury. Bai Cuiwei fell in love with Qin Mingsong. Not everyone outside knew about it. By then, the credibility of the rumor would be even higher, and it would indeed only get darker and darker. Even the White House couldn''t do anything to Song Xiu. If it were said to the outside world that Song Xiu was responsible, outsiders would immediately think of Qin Mingsong. Qin Mingsong seemed to have just realized it, and apologized again, "It was the student who got distracted. I''m sorry, sir, the student almost did something bad because of his good intentions." "Go down. Just pretend that you don''t know what happened today. You can go back and take care of things at home first." Bai Daru doesn''t want to see Qin Mingsong now. It''s not the important thing that his daughter''s reputation is flawed, but that his daughter''s eyes are somehow long, and she is attracted to Qin Mingsong, and she is looking for life and death at home. Qin Mingsong bowed to Bai Daru and resigned. At the same time, he went to get out of class as usual. When school was over, Qin Mingsong did not go back to the dormitory, but left the academy directly and returned to the rental house. Song Xiu was waiting for Qin Mingsong to come back for dinner. Qin Mingsong came back with a cold face. Song Xiu was about to throw herself into his arms like before, but he pushed her away with such force that Song Xiu fell to the ground without noticing. "Husband? What are you doing?" Song Xiu looked at Qin Mingsong in shock. Qin Mingsong said coldly: "What did you do, and you still have the nerve to ask me? The Bai Mansion will check it out, and I will be implicated as well." "You, what are you talking about? I, I don''t understand." Song Xiu couldn''t even speak intermittently. With this guilty look, Qin Mingsong didn''t know anything. When Song Xiu rushed forward to hug his thigh again, he raised his leg and kicked the person away, with a sinister look in his eyes: "If you don''t have a good mind, just stay at home and don''t go out to play tricks on others. Song Xiu, don''t make me regret marrying you." Because of his reputation, he will not divorce or divorce his wife, but he does not mind being widowed. Of course, he would not let his hands be stained with blood unless absolutely necessary. Qin Mingsong turned around to leave. Song Xiu grabbed his sleeve in panic, "Husband, I was wrong, I was wrong. I shouldn''t have spread rumors out of jealousy. I like you so much that I''m afraid of losing you." "Do you really like me?" Qin Mingsong looked condescendingly at Song Xiu. Song Xiu lay on the ground and looked up at him, nodding sharply, "I like you, I like you very much." "Then you will destroy me if you like it? The connections and reputation I worked so hard to accumulate in Fucheng made me Bai Daru has a good impression of me, because you have ruined half of my studies because of your interference." This is what Qin Mingsong is most angry about. Its hard to say what will happen next. He had worked hard to establish a connection with the Bai family, but now it was ruined by Song Xiu. Song Xiu was even more panicked when he said this. If Qin Mingsong loses her future, can she still be an official''s wife? This made Song Xiu very upset. It should be done more discreetly. It would be fine as long as they couldn''t find out it was her, and the person who received her money clearly promised not to betray her, but he went back on his promise! waste! Make sure they look good if you have the chance! Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Pack your things and I''ll take you back to Qinjiagou tomorrow." Qin Mingsong made a decision immediately. "No, I won''t go back! Husband, I promise I will never do it again. I will wait for you at home obediently." Song Xiu felt horrified at the thought of returning to Qinjiagou. Life here is so comfortable. She didn''t want to go back and have to work again. This is no longer a question that Song Xiu thinks about, but Qin Mingsong must give an explanation to the Bai family. If we continue to keep Song Xiu in Fucheng, who will be responsible for it? Qin Mingsong went to the academy to ask for leave the next day. Let''s rent a carriage again. You wouldnt know it until you move it, but youll realize there are a lot of things once you move it. Food such as rice, flour, grains, oils, meat, vegetables and dry goods, plus the clothes and jewelry that Song Xiu bought during this period, packed into two large bags, and the things took up most of the carriage. Song Xiu can only shrink a small corner. Qin Mingsong and the driver sat outside the carriage. Song Xiu didn''t sleep well all night and was in low spirits. She wanted to talk to Qin Mingsong several times, but Qin Mingsong ignored her. Qin Mingsong unilaterally engaged in a cold war with Song Xiu. It was late at night when the carriage returned to Qinjiagou. Almost all the adults in the Qin family were woken up. When I came out, I saw the carriage in front of the yard, as well as the large pile of things Qin Mingsong and the coachman had unloaded. Standing beside him was Song Xiu who seemed to be in a state of despair. "What''s going on? Why did Si''er come back suddenly without sending a letter in advance?" Mrs. Liu stepped on pointed-toed flat-soled embroidered cloth shoes and hurriedly came out wearing a coat. Qin Mingsong calmed down when he saw Mr. Liu, "Mom, let''s move the things in first, and we''ll talk about anything later." "well." Old Mrs. Liu turned around and shouted at Boss Qin and Second Boss Qin behind her: "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Why don''t you come over and help move things? You don''t have any sharp eyesight." Xiao Liu also held a lantern and illuminated the things on the ground. "Oh, there are so many things. My uncle has made a fortune. He finally thinks about his family." If Qin Chi were here, he would definitely tell her. Most of the money spent on these things still belongs to him. In order to add trouble to Qin Mingsong, Qin Chi also spent money. Chapter 122 Full of courage Chapter 122 Full of courage Things were moved into the house. Qin Mingsong paid the driver the balance and went into the yard. Song Xiu followed behind him with his head drooped. Then Qin Mingsong went to the main room. Song Xiu didn''t dare to follow him now and returned to his house in a hurry. The people in the other three rooms also went back to their rooms. It''s just that Xiao Liu is a little curious about what happened to Qin Mingsong and Song Xiu, and the atmosphere between the couple is strangely depressing. Song Jin in the room was also awakened by the movement outside. However, confinement is not over yet. Yinlong put on her clothes and went out to take a look. When she came back, she said to Song Jin, "It''s the fourth roommate of the Qin family who''s back. The second girl looks like she''s having trouble with the second uncle." "It''s only been half a month, haha." Song Jin heard that Qin Chi wanted to send people to Fucheng for three months. As a result, Song Xiu was very capable and stayed there for only half a month before asking Qin Mingsong to send him back in despair. It was much faster than Song Jinliu expected to come back. "Song Xiu! Get out of here!" Old Mrs. Liu''s leg injury has healed and she can make noise again. She banged the door and said, "You little bitch, who gave you the courage to ruin my son''s reputation and ruin his future? Bah! Come out quickly and see if I dont beat you to death tonight! "Mother-in-law, what are you talking about? When did I ruin my husband''s name? I just taught that foxy boy a lesson. What''s wrong with me?" Song Xiu didn''t dare to open the door. She pressed her hands against the door panel for fear of being pushed away by Old Liu. "Who told that Bai Bai to be shameless and the daughter of a great Confucian scholar? She has no reserve at all. She is really... tsk tsk." "What nonsense are you talking about? You are spreading rumors to cause trouble. You are trying to ruin my fourth son''s future. I will let my fourth son divorce you tonight!" Old Liu just heard what Qin Mingsong and Old Man Qin said. She didn''t quite understand the rest, but she understood that Song Xiu had been in Fucheng for half a month, but it almost ruined her son''s future. In front of Old Man Qin. Qin Mingsong just stated the seriousness. Old Liu sounded very angry, as if Qin Mingsong''s future had been ruined. He immediately came to Song Xiu to settle the score. Song Xiu''s temper also rose, "Rumors? Who said I was spreading rumors? I saw with my own eyes that woman hugging her husband and kissing him on the mouth!" Facing Qin Mingsong, Song Xiu would subconsciously show weakness. Faced with Old Liu''s scolding, Song Xiu couldn''t suppress her temper and retorted, "If I want to scold you, I''ll scold that foxy girl. She is the one who seduced my husband, and she is the one who ruined my husband''s reputation. Why are you so angry at me?" ? I thought she, Song Xiu, had no temper. I am fighting alone in Fucheng, but I have a sister here. Song Xiu knew that Song Jin would not care about her, and at the same time she resented Song Jin. However, when Song Jin was around, Song Xiu was truly brave. Human nature is so complicated sometimes. Even Song Xiu himself didn''t realize it. Returning to the familiar home of Qinjiagou, she felt very safe in her heart. Song Xiu scolded Mr. Liu through the door. The whole family listened with gusto and heard everything about what happened in the city. Song Jin also knew it. This Song Xiu tried his best, but failed miserably and was caught by someone''s tail. Qin Mingsong was forced to send the person home. At this time, Song Xiu''s voice came up again, "I''m married to a rich man, and it''s okay to endure a man''s three wives and four concubines. But if I''m married to a poor man from the countryside, I have to endure his husband''s flirting with women. Why? I''m not happy anyway!" "You, you, you..." Old Mrs. Liu was about to faint with anger. Old Qin came out and shouted, "That''s enough, go back to the house. If we continue to argue, Si''er''s reputation will be lost." This sentence made Old Liu endure it all his life. Qin Mingsong also had a dark face. I talked to my parents about what happened in Fucheng and hoped that they would control Song Xiu and not let her go out to cause trouble for him again. For this reason, he deliberately made the situation a bit serious. He never thought that his mother would clamor to find trouble for Song Xiu. What Qin Mingsong didn''t expect was that Song Xiu, who kept telling him that she was wrong, would dance extremely happily when she got home and have the courage to dance with him. Mother scolded each other. Just scold him, and tell him what happened in Fucheng. At the same time, you dare to accuse him of being a philanderer? How does this make his family miss him? Sure enough, as soon as Qin Mingsong came out, Xiao Liu said in a strange tone next to him: "My uncle is awesome. He went to Fucheng to study, and he is also capable of flirting with women. No wonder he spends one hundred, thirty and forty taels a year. It turns out he is here." " "Second sister-in-law, this is Xiu''er''s misunderstanding." Qin Mingsong would never admit it in any case, "I have no personal relationship with that girl." The scolding outside soon subsided. Song Jin smiled happily after hearing this and was in a good mood. The dissatisfaction of being woken up was gone. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Before, I only saw text descriptions, which ultimately made it less interesting. It was more interesting to see them live. "Little miss, the second girl is so noisy and has damaged the reputation of the Bai family. Aren''t you afraid of the Bai family''s revenge?" Yinlong was thinking more, fearing that what Song Xiu did would implicate Song Jin. Song Jin said calmly: "Aunt Long, don''t worry. Those scholars pride themselves on being noble and will not care about Song Xiu." "Why do I not believe it so much?" Yinlong''s knowledge is far beyond that of women such as Old Liu. There are many twists and turns in the wealthy family''s house, and now the people in Baifu may want to kill Song Xiu. Especially those who claim to be from a scholarly family, they are the ones who care most about their reputation. If they are ruthless, as long as the family''s daughter-in-law is harmed by her reputation, she will be killed immediately or sent to a nunnery to be repaired. Song Jin said with a smile: "Aunt Long, did Song Xiu make a mistake this time? What''s wrong with spreading gossip outside? If the Bai family girl dares to do it, why can''t people talk about it?" This matter was originally a mistake of the White House. The White House would either silence Song Xiu directly, or he would be eager to seal Song Xiu''s mouth. The two returned to Qinjiagou. So obviously the White House chose to keep it secret. Song Jin recalled Bai Cuiwei in her previous life. She claims to be a talented woman, but she is willing to fall into the trap of being with a married man. She also says that a daughter from the Bai family will never become a concubine. Song Jin was speechless for a long time when he found out. Not as a concubine, but as a concubine? All I can say is that **** is hypocritical. But the Bai Mansion is quite interesting. In the previous life, Song Xiu had not ruined Bai Cuiwei''s reputation, so the manor told the outside world that Bai Cuiwei was married, and she was still married to a student of Bai Daru from afar. In fact, they were raised in a house, with no worries about food and clothing, and lived with Qin Mingsong day and night like an ordinary couple. Song Jin''s life experience in his previous life was not revealed to the public. In fact, Bai Cuiwei is also invisible. It''s just that Bai Cuiwei later followed Qin Mingsong to the capital, so there should be no need to hide anymore. In this life, Song Jin is not very optimistic about Song Xiu. Mainly because Song Xiu couldn''t defeat Qin Mingsong and Bai Cuiwei with his brain. However, when Song Xiu went crazy, she was desperate for her life and shameless. The secular rules did not restrict her very much, so she really made a big fuss, which was enough for Qin Mingsong and Bai Cuiwei to panic. It''s just the beginning. Unless Qin Mingsong can give up Bai Cuiwei. Otherwise, there will be more fun in the future. Calculating the time, Bai Cuiwei was pregnant during this period of time in her previous life, and the twins were born at the end of the year. But let Qin Chi mess it up all his life. Can the pair of illegitimate children be born as scheduled? (End of chapter) Chapter 123 Songs father has some backup plans Chapter 123 Father Song has a backup plan Qin Mingsong looked at Old Qin, "Dad, can you tell me now where the Song sisters came from?" Old Qin raised his eyelids and glanced at him, "You just need to know that we can''t afford to provoke him." "We can''t afford to offend the White House." Qin Mingsong only found it ridiculous. As a farmer, who can they afford to offend? Old Man Qin thought for a while and said: "The Baifu comes from a noble family and prides itself on being a scholarly family. It is true that ordinary people cannot afford to offend them, but such people cherish their reputation. As long as we are reasonable, we don''t have to be too afraid. On the contrary, those Dont mess with anyone who doesnt follow the rules. This is interesting. Song Kuan didn''t know how he told Old Man Qin in private. Anyway, he was very afraid. Qin Mingsong has also known some dark things in the past few years outside. He understood what Old Qin said when he said it, "Since Dad said that we can''t mess with the Song sisters, why did you allow mother to bully Xiu''er?" "Have you read this book in vain?" Old man Qin looked at his son with some disappointment, "Your mother is the mother-in-law. How can it be called bullying if you ask your daughter-in-law to do something within her duties? It is your mother who is responsible for this matter being spread outside." As long as it makes sense. Who can say it''s the Qin family''s fault? When Old Man Qin saw Qin Mingsong, this was the son he had high hopes for after all. "According to the agreement between Mr. Song and I, as long as my family has no intention of harming others, it will be fine. If anything happens to one of them in the Qin family, our Qin family will not be affected either." If you want to live, you have to remember this, Si''er, there are too many people in this world who can kill us, don''t think that you are the only smart person." Otherwise, the two sisters would have such a large sum of money. Not to mention Old Liu, Old Qin is also greedy. Unfortunately, he didn''t dare to move, so he could only watch. Fortunately, Song Xiu was not clear-headed and dug out two thousand taels, which was a small comfort. Qin Mingsong felt cold in his heart. Earlier, he had thought about being widowed as a last resort. Fortunately, he asked his father today. Even if his father didn''t tell everything, it still gave him a warning. Qin Mingsong recalled the differences between the Song sisters. Song Jin gave Qin Mingsong the impression that she was raised in a wealthy family, while Song Xiu seemed to be born in a small family. Then Qin Mingsong asked tentatively: "Does dad value a great man and his wife the most?" "The elder man''s wife is a legitimate daughter-in-law, and your daughter-in-law is a concubine." Old Man Qin looked at his son with a pity, but still comforted him, "It''s not like a concubine. In the past, people from a family like ours couldn''t marry even if they wanted to." Some wealthy families treat their concubine children as goods. They are born to provide support for their legitimate children. Even so, they will not marry farmers. Old Man Qin used to do things for the Song family. He knew that the Song family''s ancestors had several generations of imperial doctors, but the Song family was used to keeping a low profile, so few people knew about it. When it came to raising their children, they were not comparable to ordinary merchants, but only their direct children were carefully raised. However, old man Qin didn''t know that his comfort was worse than no comfort at all, and it was more like a needle pricking Qin Mingsong''s heart. This made Qin Mingsong even more jealous of Qin Chi. According to age, Song Jin should have married him. Thinking of all the changes that happened to Qin Chi after Song Jin married Qin Chi, in less than a year, he had a beautiful wife and children, and even won a small three yuan. He really has the appearance of a prosperous husband. Compared with him marrying Song Xiu, this was not a good thing. Instead, it was one trouble after another. "Dad, if I don''t pass the exam this year, will my family really not support my education anymore?" Qin Mingsong is most concerned about this. Old Qin''s slightly turbid eyes narrowed slightly, "No." Seeing Qin Mingsong''s expression changed. Old Man Qin was quiet for a moment and then said: "Da Lang won the scholarship in the 17th year of this year. He didn''t spend any money from his family, and he still got subsidies from the court every year. Don''t you feel guilty?" From a personal perspective, these words are almost astonishing. Qin Mingsong''s face was thrown to the ground and stepped on! It turns out that it was Old Man Qin who said this. No matter how aggrieved Qin Mingsong felt, he could only endure it. In comparison, he lost! Because there is also a difference between a scholar and a scholar. Scholars with the best grades, whom the imperial court called gifted students, would be provided with food or academic food every month if they studied in the academies, and would also receive a silver subsidy of four to six taels every year. Qin Chi won the "Little Three Dollars" and got excellent grades. He could earn at least six taels of silver a year. If he was lucky, he would have the chance to become a "Gongsheng" and get a place to enter the Imperial Academy. As a native, you will also have some extra income. It''s like vouching for candidates, which is a decent and stable income. Although Qin Mingsong ranked high in the scholar examination that year, he was not a natural talent. It has to be said that Qin Chi was selected as a scholar, which made Qin Mingsong''s status in the family not as good as before, and even his weight in old Qin''s heart was reduced a little. It can only be said that the contrast is too strong. Not to mention what other people in the family think. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Old man Qin didn''t feel like it when he thought about it himself. He used the whole family''s efforts to support his youngest son''s education for more than ten years, but he was not as good as the one raised by Li alone. Sure enough, it is important to marry a good wife. He was too hasty back then and married Mr. Liu... When Qin Mingsong returned to his room, the unwillingness and jealousy that surged up in his heart still hadn''t calmed down for a long time, even if Song Xiu humbled himself in front of him. Qin Mingsong was very upset. "Husband, do you want to rest?" Song Xiu made the bed. Qin Mingsong looked at her with deep eyes, "Did Xiu''er have a good life before?" "It''s normal." Song Xiu responded casually. In her mind, a merchant''s house was indeed ordinary, and what she yearned for was to be an official''s wife. But Qin Mingsong''s ears were particularly harsh when he heard it. Ordinarily, could it threaten the lives of their family? What does this mean? It shows that he comes from a lowly background and anyone can threaten him. If he wants to change these, if he wants to beat Qin Chi, he must win the championship this year. After running Ziyang Academy for several years, he knew very well that he seemed to be doing well, but in fact he was like a castle in the air. It would be fine if he passed the imperial examination and passed the high school, but if he failed, not many people would buy his fault. In Huizhou, a city with a rich cultural atmosphere, a scholar is nothing in the eyes of the powerful. Only by winning the exam can one gain some weight. Next, Qin Mingsong studied harder. In the past, he studied very hard, but he also bothered to make connections and attend classmates'' gatherings. Now, he almost never leaves his hands, reading at night and burning the midnight oil. Read at home behind closed doors. After I went to the academy again, I also ignored what was going on outside the window and only focused on reading books by sages. This diligent attitude made Qin Mingsong have a good impression on Bai Daru and Master Xi in the academy. Students are supposed to focus on academics. There is no teacher who dislikes such a student. When the news reached Qin Chi, he was speechless for a while, "You are worthy of being my brother-in-law for finding a way out of the blow so quickly." It''s unclear whether this is a compliment or a mockery. Song Jin didn''t care anyway, she had plenty of patience. Chapter 124 full moon Chapter 124 Full Moon In the blink of an eye, the twins are full moon. The Qin family put on new clothes and were all happy. More than ten tables of full-moon wine were set up, and a group of elders, relatives and friends were invited. Qin Chi''s classmates and teachers also came. That day these people saw Song Jin for the first time. Song Jin and Li Shi each appeared holding a child. People who saw Song Jin''s appearance for the first time were stunned for a long time. Among these people are also Qin Chis classmates and friends. Meng Qingrui was really dumbfounded. He knew that the woman Qin Chi married had an extraordinary appearance, but he didn''t expect that she would be so outstanding. At first glance, her green eyebrows are like a crescent moon, and her almond-shaped eyes are sparkling. The jade skin is white and as soft as snow. Dressed in an elegant dress, she looks like a hibiscus emerging from the water, like a fairy in a painting. Looking carefully again, the simple blue silk shirt is paired with a plain underskirt, and the hair accessory is only an elegant wooden hairpin, but it does not cover up the beauty of the country. She just stood quietly in the crowd, her white teeth slightly exposed, her red lips smiling, and her brows and eyes showing a sense of demureness and calmness, like a pool of spring water, calm and calm, but enough to amaze others for half a lifetime. Such women marry into peasant families. Why is it so incredible? "This, is this Qi''an''s wife?" Le Yan almost stuttered when he spoke. Meng Qingrui looked at the stunning woman above him, who was holding a baby to show to the elders, and then looked at Qin Chi, who was standing next to the woman with gentle eyebrows, "Yes, no wonder Qi''an hid it so deeply." "How could you not hide this beautiful woman?" Lu Yanji was also envious. Le Yan admitted that he was also jealous, "How come Qi''an gets all the good things?" Suddenly Meng Qingrui touched Le Yan with his elbow and winked at him for a while, the meaning of which was self-evident. Meng Qingrui whispered: "We must let Qin Chi drink a few more drinks later." "Fine! It''s hard to get rid of the jealousy in my heart without getting people drunk." Le Yan said through gritted teeth. Lu Yanji smiled angrily and said, "I''m just envious, but you''re good, even jealous. Don''t overdo it. One or two glasses of water and wine will do the trick. Qi''an''s body is weak." That''s why they feel aggrieved. Some people have such a good life. He achieved fame at a young age, was accompanied by a beautiful woman, and had children. Today''s full moon banquet was full of praises, and Qin Chi gained a lot of envy and jealousy. Huddled at the door of his house. Song Xiu opened the door a crack and watched the excitement outside. She felt jealous as if a fire was burning in her heart, burning her chest with pain. Song Jin is so beautiful today! It was exactly what Song Xiu wanted but didn''t have. While others praised Qin Chi, they also praised Song Jin. Song Jin was also very prosperous in his previous life, especially when Qin Mingsong was a Jinshi in high school. There were so many guests coming and going, and the female family members gathered around Song Jin to flatter him, one at a time. Song Xiu muttered in jealousy and disdain: "Tch! What''s so great, Qin Mingsong will win the imperial examination this year, and then I will be the queen of the imperial examination, and I will be even more glorious than Song Jin!" Thinking about how proud and proud I will be in the future makes me feel better. "What is Auntie talking about?" Sanlang''s little head suddenly came close to the door, and his big round eyes looked directly at Song Xiu. Song Xiu was shocked. Song Xiu held her chest for a while before she calmed down. She couldn''t help but curse in a low voice: "You little brat, you always jump out suddenly like this. Do you deserve a beating?" "Auntie, don''t try to accuse me wrongly. It was grandma who asked me to ask you to help in the kitchen. She even scolded you for being too lazy to make your feet grow hairy." Saburo''s little face retorted very innocently. Song Xiu was so angry that she wanted to beat him. When Saburo saw the two short legs, he ran very fast again. Today, Mrs. Liu is wearing both gold and silver. She is dressed very richly. Most of the time, she sits in the main room and greets the women. Occasionally, she goes to the kitchen to take a look. She happened to find Song Xiu lazy, so she sent Sanlang to call for someone. The banquet chef was hired by Qin Chi from a restaurant in the town, along with two cooking helpers. Other chores are done by Xiao Liu and Lin, and some aunts from the clan help. And at the banquet. The twins were carried out for a while and then carried back to the main room. Mr. Qin Chitong toasted. Someone asked curiously: "By the way, Dalang, why don''t you see your brother-in-law?" Qin Mingsong did not ask for leave to go home during the full moon wine of twins. No wonder others ask this question. Others were also curious after hearing this. Qin Chi smiled slightly and explained: "My brother-in-law is going to attend the Autumn Festival this year and is studying hard in retreat at the academy. Besides, he came back ten days ago, and he won''t allow him to ask for leave again." "It''s true!" "Asking for leave frequently is a delay in studying." "Classwork is still important." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! When the elders of the clan heard this, they understood. One clan elder said: "Mingsong also came back ten days ago, and he brought back a cart full of things. He was very thoughtful." Qin Chi wanted to say that his wife had nothing to do with the car. While chatting at the table, a gentleman had a few drinks and couldn''t help but ask: "Has Qi''an thought about going to the capital?" "That hasn''t been thought through yet." Qin Chi''s face showed hesitation at the right time. The gentleman added: "Such a big thing should be thought about carefully." Wait until the banquet is over. Qin Chi sent the guests away with thoughtful etiquette, and even watched the carriage of his husband and his classmates and friends leave the village. When Qin Chi returned, he saw Song Jin and Yinlong packing things in the room, which were all gifts from today''s guests. Most of them are for twins. Seeing Qin Chi coming in, Song Jin stood up to greet him, "Ms. sir, have all the guests left?" "Gone." Qin Chi''s eyes circled around Song Jin''s face. He didn''t know why he felt that his wife was particularly dazzling today. Thinking about Song Jin''s appearance and the stunning appearance of those guests, Qin Chi always felt a little uncomfortable. Qin Chi sat at the table. Yinlong realized what was going on and exited the room. Only the husband and wife were left in the house. Qin Chi said slowly: "Madam, after passing the college examination, Master Xuezheng gave me a place to study in the Imperial College. Do you think I should go?" "This is a good thing. It will be fine if my husband decides." Song Jin would not choose for Qin Chi. Qin Chi got Xiao Sanyuan and became a Gongsheng student as expected. The so-called Gongsheng students are those who have excellent academic performance or qualifications among the students from prefectures, prefectures, and counties, and are promoted to study in the Imperial College in the capital, which means to contribute their talents to the emperor. Those who can be selected are all the best among men. Qin Chi looked at her quietly again, "My beloved wife and young son are at home, I can''t bear to leave her." "My husband doesn''t want to go, so don''t use me and my children as a raft." Song Jin couldn''t help but glared at him. Qin Chi suddenly smiled. After leaving his hometown to study at the Imperial College in the capital, it was not that easy to go home. Qin Chi actually had no intention of going. It is not necessary for scholars to go. If you want to go, you have to wait until you pass the exam. But Qin Chi has no plans to take part in the provincial examination this year. He still needs to find time to consolidate the power that his uncle has given him. "Madam, I plan to go on a study tour for a while, but my return date is uncertain." Chapter 125 Linzhang, Qinghuan Chapter 125 Linzhang, Qinghuan A mysterious guest came to Qinjiagou that night. Perhaps there was an extra person in Qin Chi''s room. The visitor was wearing brocade clothes and a jade belt, paired with a precious purple jade crown, and his long hair hung down to his waist like a waterfall. He behaves calmly and walks elegantly. At this time, the outline of his lips was soft, his eyebrows were slightly raised, and he looked happily at the sleeping milk babies on the two small beds. Today is the full moon of the twins, and He Lianpu doesn''t want to miss it. Unable to come during the day, he chose to come at night. He took out a piece of paper from his sleeve pocket. There are words on the paper. He Lianpu handed it to Qin Chi. Qin Chi took it and took a look. There are two names on it: Linzhang and Qinghuan. He Lianpu took a lot of trouble to decide on the name. At the same time, he also had two jade pendants carefully carved from mutton-fat white jade, one for the baby boy, a unicorn-shaped pendant, and the other for the baby girl, a chimeric-shaped pendant. The two jade pendants are also engraved with names. "When the future is stable, the child''s surname will be changed to Helian." Helian Pu made a decision, not a discussion. How can a farmer be qualified to negotiate terms with the royal family? Qin Chi smiled and put away the piece of paper, "Uncle, I listen to my mother." He Lianpu was not angry, "Your mother will agree." He came to Qin''s house quietly, wanting to see the twins and where his sister had lived these years. Even the servants in the mansion are living better than this. But his sister would rather live here than have the royal palace''s fine clothes and food. at the same time. Song Jin stood quietly under the eaves in front of the door. No one asked Song Jin to leave the house. She wanted to give the two of them alone space to get along. The door to the main room suddenly opened. Mrs. Li walked out of it. Boss Qin held a lantern to light the way for Mrs. Li. After a while, he came to Song Jin and asked, "Daughter-in-law, why are you standing outside?" "Come out for a breath of air and look at the night." Song Jin responded with a smile. Mrs. Li understood clearly, took Song Jin''s hand, opened the door and stepped into the house. Boss Qin walked behind and closed the door. "If I don''t come over, will you not see me?" Li asked He Lianpu directly. He Lianpu smiled helplessly, "It''s not good to disturb my sister''s rest." "Excuse." When Mrs. Li learned that Qin Chi had specifically let her child sleep in his room, she knew something was going on tonight. Only waited for about an hour. He Lianpu was about to leave, and Qin Chi saw him off. When they were separated, He Lianpu gave Qin Chi a flat square jade, carved from sapphire, with patterns of gods, beasts, flowers and birds carved on it. When you hold it in your hand, you can tell that this jade is quite old. Rather than the jade dragon pendant that the royal family used to wear. Qin Chi was stunned, "Uncle?" "This jade represents Prince Rui." This is a jade that symbolizes the identity of the prince. It has special religious significance and represents the sanctity and authority of the royal family. It must be worn by the prince when he participates in sacrificial activities. He Lianpu gave it to Qin Chi, "It''s useless to keep it here with me." After saying that, Helian Pu covered his mouth and coughed twice. He tried not to make a scene. After walking a few steps, a carriage stopped there. Qin Chi watched He Lianpu get on the carriage. It was not until the carriage disappeared into the night that he came back to his senses for a long time and put away the sadness in his eyes. Every time we meet may be the last time. That''s why Helian Pu took the risk to come here. There were many people staring at him in the dark, and this time people pretended to be him lying on the hospital bed, so Jin Chan escaped from his shell and came here. But you cant stay too long. "Qin Yi, we will enter Wuxi Mountain tomorrow." Wuxi Mountain, formerly known as Wuxi Mountain. There are mountains and mountains and deep canyons. There are waterfalls, springs and towering ancient trees. It''s off the beaten path, but it''s a great place. He Lianpu handed over some of Qin Chi''s forces. Part of it is hidden in Wuxi Mountain, and Qin Chi needs to show his face to win people''s hearts. In fact, Wuxi Mountain is very famous in three prefectures and nine counties. The main reason is that there is Huanglongtan in the mountains. Since the Qin Dynasty, when there has been a severe drought for a long time, people will go to Huanglongtan to worship the dragon and pray for rain. It is said that nine times out of ten, the rain praying altar is still there. The next day. After Qin Chi left home. Song Jin began her daily routine of raising a baby. The two milk babies had a lot to do, and occasionally they would cry so loudly that it made Mrs. Li fall ill, so Song Jin had to take them back to her house to raise them. Moreover, Song Jin was pregnant. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! It''s hard to keep Yinlong here, not to mention she has a lot to do at the pharmacy. After teaching Song Jin how to take care of a baby, Yinlong packed up and went back to the medicine shop. In the next few days, Song Jin experienced the hardship of raising a baby alone. Even more tiring than a busy day at the pharmacy. Fortunately, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Lin helped each other, and it was only until Mrs. Li recovered from her illness that Mrs. Li took over the care of the baby. The days have arrived in July. The two little milk babies were raised to be fat and white, and they were very lovable. Everyone in the family, adults and children, doesn''t like it. In fact, this is also attributed to Song Jin''s generosity. You must know that Song Jin is not a stingy person, because Xiao Liu and Lin often help. Every once in a while, she will buy some cloth, pastries and other food, and secretly give them to the second and third bedrooms. This is a real benefit. Xiao Liu and Lin had never met before. As a result, the two of them worked harder, and even Mrs. Li felt a lot more relaxed. Later, when he had free time, Song Jin would go to the medicine shop to work during the day. Song Jin just arrived at the medicine shop today. "My boss." Xing Lun hadn''t seen Song Jin for a while, so he couldn''t help but look at it a few more times, "Is the boss mellow?" This made Song Jin''s mouth twitch slightly, "Are you saying I''m fat?" "Mellow sounds better." Xing Lun smiled silently, showing that he was not embarrassed. Song Jin smiled and said: "When I was in confinement, Aunt Long ate and drank delicious food every day. Can I change it and not get fat? I grew this little bit of flesh during that time." Yinlong on the side suddenly became happy after hearing this. Then he pretended to look at Song Jin seriously. Yinlong debunked her words, "The young lady''s eyebrows have become clearer. She must have been raising a child for the past few months, so she is not too tired." "It''s quite tiring to carry it alone. Don''t my family members often lend a hand? As long as my mother-in-law is in better health, she will take care of it most of the time. Now she doesn''t do embroidery work anymore." Li''s daily life of raising her baby is getting smoother and smoother. I am extremely satisfied to have grandchildren and granddaughters every day. Song Jin lived a very comfortable life these days. Even Qin Chi, who had left, would only think of her occasionally, if he hadn''t sent back a safe letter every month. Arrived at the tea room. Xing Lun looked back and then said to Song Jin: "My boss, do you know how to prepare monkshood?" "Someone asked us to concoct it?" Song Jin suddenly grasped the key. Xing Lun nodded, "Someone asked for this medicine and spent a lot of money." Aconite is a very precious medicinal material. It has the effect of restoring yang and relieving adverse events, replenishing fire and supporting yang. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a life-saving medicine. Aconite is actually the root of the plant Aconitum. It is highly toxic if not processed and cannot be taken directly. Someone mashed the juice and applied it on the arrowhead to quickly kill prey and enemies. There are not many masters who are good at making it, and even those who know a little bit dont dare to make it. If the skills are not enough. The poison has not been removed, but it will kill people. Chapter 126 aconite Chapter 126 Aconite Turning poison into good medicine is not that simple. There must be aconite for sale in the market. But people still want to buy it at a high price, which shows that the requirements are higher. Song Jin asked casually: "How much does the other party bid? What are its requirements?" "The other party said that the aconite sold on the market is somewhat toxic, that is, the amount would not kill a human being. However, this time the patient is too precious and there is no risk of toxicity. Therefore, the reward requires high quality and good efficacy." Xing Lun held out a finger and said, "As long as you pass the test, in addition to the silver for medicinal materials, you will be rewarded with an additional five thousand taels of silver." Song Jin was silent, "The bid is so high, it''s most likely to save lives. Even if I concoct it, I won''t be able to do it in time." What is Hui Yang and Ji Ni? Return Yang, restore Yang energy; save Ni, cure Juni. The reason why the other party is so eager to find aconite is mostly used in critical cases when Yang Qi is about to disappear. To put it in layman''s terms, there are people who are dying who are in urgent need of this life-saving Yang-rejuvenating medicine. Xing Lun asked his parents and two master chefs, and they all said that they could not completely eliminate the poison of aconite. He didn''t have an accurate estimate of how many days it would take Song Jin to prepare this. "Master, will it take many days to bake?" "It will take seven days at the earliest, and the process is complicated." In his previous life, Song Jin knew a method of preparing water and fire, which could not only minimize the toxicity, but also improve the efficacy of the medicine. It''s just that this method of preparation does not come from Song''s Pharmacopoeia. It was Song Jin who saved an old man in his previous life. Unexpectedly, the man was an old medicine worker who fled from Nancheng County and came to Huizhou. The old man saw that Song Jin was interested in preparing medicinal materials, so he gave her guidance for a while. Otherwise, with just a pharmacopoeia and no one showing him the way, Song Jin would only be able to learn it on paper. Song Jin asked again: "Do you know who is offering the reward?" "I heard that those who come to Huizhou Prefecture with a certain nobleman from the capital will have a reward guaranteed by the Yamen, so they don''t have to worry about encountering a liar." Xing Lun came to Song Jin only after he figured it out. Song Jin heard him mention noble people. He subconsciously thought of He Lianpu. Song Jin met He Lianpu twice. The aura of nobility surrounding him was overwhelming, and one could tell at a glance that he was of extraordinary origin. Even though Qin Chi didn''t elaborate on his uncle''s origins, Song Jin could see the signs with an extra lifetime of experience. Then there is Helian Pu''s illness. Song Jin was not sure if the person who was in urgent need of medicinal materials was He Lianpu, but when he mentioned a noble person from the capital and someone who was sick, he obviously fit the bill. With only one or two doubts, Song Jin also decided to concoct the aconite first, but still ordered: "Let people go and inquire more." Inquiring is one thing, concocting it is another. Xing Lun brought more than ten kilograms of Aconitum roots to the pharmacy this time. They had been cleaned and there was no dirt on them. Song Jin put on leather gloves and checked them one by one. The skin of Aconitum root is black. This thing is highly poisonous at first glance. When he saw Song Jin picking it up, Yinlong hurried over and said, "Miss, let me do it. This thing is poisonous. If you get it, you''ll be in trouble." "It''s okay, I''m wearing gloves." Song Jin carefully picked out the best quality parts, and let Xing Lun handle the rest by himself, "Aunt Long asked the medicine boy to fetch a basin of water, and then asked someone to go to the utility room to get an hourglass, and change it in four hours. A basin of water." "Should we add salt to the water?" Yinlong asked one more question. Soaking in salt water can effectively detoxify. But not the one used by Song Jin. It is soaked in clean water and the water needs to be changed every four hours, which means the water needs to be changed three times a day. This process is not difficult, but it is time-consuming. She can have someone do it for her, but she has to do the rest herself, and she has to arrange things at home beforehand. Mainly it''s about the two kids. Three days passed in the blink of an eye. "How many days did you say you were going to stay at the pharmacy?" Li looked at Song Jin doubtfully. "right!" Song Jin found an excuse, "There is something important in the pharmacy, and I want to see it in person." Mrs. Li still trusted her daughter-in-law, but as a daughter-in-law, she had been away from home for several days, and no normal mother-in-law would agree. "You left home alone as a woman without an acquaintance to accompany you. It will not sound good if word spreads. Even if I believe you, what about others?" It''s not that Li is deliberately making things difficult for Song Jin, this is a fact. "Aunt Long will accompany you." Song Jin could only mention Yinlong. Yinlong has lived in the Qin family for a long time, so Li naturally knows about her, but she still hesitates. You must know that in this world, if an unmarried woman spends a night alone, her reputation will be ruined. Married women are not so demanding. But also if her husbands family is open-minded. I''ve been away from home for three days. How should I answer when someone asks me? He said he was going to a pharmacy to work, but there were always some people who were loudmouthed and liked to spread rumors and stir up trouble. Certain things turned sour as word spread. Song Jin knew what Mrs. Li was worried about, "Why don''t you, mother, take the two children with me to the medicine shop? Just go out and relax." "So, is this convenient?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Li was a little moved. Since marrying to Qinjiagou, she has never lived outside. Song Jin smiled and said: "You can live in the medicine shop, and there are people who will help you take care of the baby. But this kind of thing will happen more often in the future..." Mrs. Li knew that Song Jin had to go. He simply spoke to Boss Qin. Boss Qin thought there was no problem, so he went to the pharmacy to find them when he had time. "It''s close. I''ll walk faster. I''ll be there in a quarter of an hour." A man''s feet are fast and he can cover several miles in a quarter of an hour. Let Boss Qin talk about this matter. She bluntly said that Song Jin had to go to the medicine shop to work and had to work at night. Li was worried and took her two children to accompany her. Old man Qin didn''t dare to stop it openly when it came to Song Jin''s affairs, so he only asked him to leave early and come back early. After listening for a while, Old Liu made a long face, stepped in front of them, and refused to allow Boss Qin to move anything onto the carriage. Boss Qin frowned, "Mom, I asked dad and he agreed, please don''t make trouble unreasonably." "What are you going for? Who will do the work in the fields if you are gone?" Old Liu just wanted to find trouble. "Don''t worry, Mom, I''ll be back to work during the day." Boss Qin also knows that the family is very busy at this time, especially in addition to the work in the fields, there is also a medicine field this year. The salvia grown in the medicinal fields grew better than expected. It will be harvested in half a month. The second and third sons alone are too busy to keep up. Mrs. Li hadn''t handed over the money for half a year, and Mrs. Liu had long been holding back her anger. "You''re not allowed to go. I can''t say for sure. No one can go out." "What do you want to do?" Boss Qin also got angry. "Your wife hasn''t paid any money to the public school for half a year! If she wants to go out, she should first hand over the money she''s been short of for the past six months." Old Liu finally revealed his purpose. This commotion is all because of money. Song Xiu was washing clothes in the yard and gloating, "That''s right! Brother, we don''t raise free-loaders in the family." "Why are you everywhere?" Song Jin glanced at Song Xiu coldly, then turned to look at Old Qin, "Grandpa, don''t you talk about grandma? My mother-in-law has been taking care of the children and has no time to do embroidery work." "My vision is blurry. I won''t embroider anything anymore." Li, who was originally quiet, suddenly said something. This sentence is undoubtedly equivalent to a bolt from the blue. Mrs. Liu, who had been sitting at home collecting money for twenty years, suddenly lost this income, which was equivalent to cutting her flesh. Old Man Qin didn''t expect this, "Boss, wife, is this really the reason?" Mrs. Li looked at Old Man Qin with a faint look, "If you don''t believe me, you can go outside and find out what happens to the eyes of people my age who do embroidery." Now even Song Jin looked at Li with concern. Chapter 127 Is a separation better than a newlywed? Chapter 127: Is a separation better than a new marriage? No matter how suspicious the two elders were, Li insisted on his statement. Old Liu''s goal was not achieved. Finally, it was Old Qin who spoke, and Song Jin''s family successfully went out. Boss Qin drove an ox cart out of the village. Li and Song Jin were sitting in the car, each holding a child in their arms. I met people from the village on the road. Someone asked: "Mingzhong, where are the family going?" "I haven''t gone anywhere. How is the rice growing in your field this year?" Boss Qin asked loudly. When the man heard this, he shook his head sadly, "It''s not good. I''m afraid this year''s harvest won''t be enough to pay taxes." "Oh, my family is the same." Chat with acquaintances. The bullock cart left the village entrance. The people who met behind me were extremely envious. Someone said sourly: "Mrs. Liu''s family not only raises horses and sheep, but also buys a big buffalo." "Two talents in one discipline, it seems that things are getting better soon." Most people in the village talk about his family now. I dont know how many people are envious of me. I don''t know these Song Jin people. On the way, Song Jin saw Mrs. Li teasing her granddaughter, "My mother''s eyes are blurry. Do you want to see Dr. Jing for a look?" Ms. Li chuckled, "I lied to them, do you still take it seriously? I''m just looking for an excuse. You should know how difficult my mother-in-law is." Helian Pusai gave her a large sum of money, so that she would not have to worry about food and clothing without working in this life. "I don''t think this matter is over. When it comes to money issues, grandma will be more difficult and won''t compromise easily." "I just want to see her make a fuss. Human emotions can''t stand to be worn away." There is something in Li''s words. Song Jin didn''t understand the reason for a while. So Mrs. Li leaned into Song Jin''s ear and whispered: "This year, the adults and children in the second and third bedrooms have lost a little respect for Old Liu, the head of the family. If she continues to make trouble, sooner or later she will receive a message Bad consequences." Suddenly, Song Jin suddenly realized. Mrs. Li smiled and said, "You are too young to have thought of this. It''s not that I can''t take out the money, but I''m not happy with it." Ever since Song Jin was shocked and gave birth prematurely last time, Mrs. Li has not been so good-tempered. Clay figurines also have a three-part nature. Song Jin was delighted to hear this. In fact, the two elders are not short of money at all, they are just used to asking for it from the third-room owner. Not long after, we arrived at the pharmacy. The bullock cart stopped in front of Song Jin''s house. Yinlong brought his daughter and Xiaoyu over to help and tidied up the house where Mr. Li was going to live. Soon, everything was settled. Boss Qin will go back to Qinjiagou first. When Song Jin went to check on the soaking condition of raw aconite, he met Xing Lun again. "The news has been found out. The only noble person who came from the capital, and the only one who is seriously ill, is Prince Rui''s eldest son. It is the eldest son''s attendant who is offering the reward for Fuzi." Xing Lun reported the found information to Song Jin. A Jifang intelligence network was established. In addition, the secret information may not be found, and the big news of He Lian Pu''s coming to Huangshan has long been leaked. Moreover, the news that he has been lingering on his bed for many years is familiar to the entire Great Xia Dynasty. As the son of the God of War of the Great Xia Dynasty, he has naturally attracted much attention since his birth. Song Jin did not associate Uncle Qin Chi with this sickly prince at first. First, because He Lianpu appeared in front of them twice, both times he could move freely. He looked a little sick, but he was far less healthy than the rumors said. He couldn''t even get out of bed. Second, the person should have died of illness last year! The person who died was not dead? Song Jin immediately thought of Qin Chi. On Qin Chi''s so-called death anniversary last year, something big must have happened that the outside world didn''t know about. "Xing Lun, did anything happen in Huizhou Prefecture on the ninth day of October last year?" "Should I have someone check it out?" Xing Lun asked tentatively. "No need!" Song Jin thought that the things involved behind it were not something that their small pharmacy could investigate. "Forget it, this is not what we should investigate." Song Jin was keenly aware that the secret Qin Chi was carrying might be heavier than what she was carrying. Her eyes fell on the raw aconite soaked in the water again. I couldn''t help but pay more attention to it. Qin Chi is on a study tour again, and he doesn''t know when he will return. Li Shi should have not yet heard the news that He Lianpu was seriously ill. In order to avoid exposing Li and Qin Chi, Song Jin could only pretend not to know. Xing Lun saw Song Jin deep in thought and did not disturb him. The next day. After Song Jin fed the twins, he left them in the care of Li and Xiaoyu and went to the processing room alone. The raw aconite is hanging in a dustpan. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Yinlong stood by and said, "Little miss, I completed the cleaning and soaking for four days and twelve times as you ordered." "Then proceed to the next step of simmering." Song Jin thought about what he needed, "First prepare **** slices, a piece of kraft paper, a handful of dry straw, and rice bran..." These things are available in the pharmacy, so the medicine boy prepares them quickly. The next step is to simmer the raw aconite, which must be done in the open air. Song Jin picked a flat corner in the drying area behind the medicine shop, built a square stove, and put the raw aconite and **** slices into the stove from bottom to top. Cover raw aconite with brown paper. Sprinkle a layer of chaff ash on the paper. Add a handful of dry straw and a little chaff. Use straw to ignite chaff. Keep the heat of the simmer moderate so that the heat continues to transfer downwards. "When the chaff is almost burned out, sprinkle a handful more evenly on it, and continue to simmer like this for a day and a night. The most important thing in this step is to keep the fire going, neither too fast nor too slow." Song Jin said this to Yinlong. Yinlong watched what Song Jin did, and it didn''t take long for him to take action. Next, he and Song Jin would take turns guarding. This time Yinlong stayed for the first half of the night and Song Jin stayed for the second half of the night. Temperatures can drop at night, especially late at night. Yinlong left for a while. Song Jin sat in front of the stove, and a fire was lit next to it for lighting and warmth. When he heard subtle footsteps behind him, Song Jin thought it was Yinlong coming back. I glanced back unintentionally. In an instant, Song Jin was stunned. In the hazy moonlight, a tall and straight man''s figure slowly walked out. At first glance, he felt a bit familiar. After a closer look, he knew that he was indeed an acquaintance. It was Qin Chi who had been away from home for half a year. The figure is outstanding and the night is sultry. Others came in the moonlight, cold and mysterious. "Madam, I''m back." Qin Chi''s voice was as clean as running water in a mountain stream, "I haven''t seen you for a long time. Do you want to be my husband?" Song Jin was a little distracted, but his words brought him back to reality. Want to? Occasionally. Qin Chi came to sit next to Song Jin, and his eyes fell on the stove in front of him. The chaff seemed to be shining with sparks when it was burning. He took out an oil paper bag from his body. He took out a chicken leg and handed it to Song Jin. "Thank you for your hard work, ma''am. Let''s eat some chicken drumsticks to replenish our strength." Qin Chi saw Song Jin who was silent. Put the chicken drumstick directly into her hand. To be honest, I don''t feel comfortable. Isnt it said that a little separation is better than a newlywed? Song Jin saw only surprise on his face, but no shyness or surprise. (End of chapter) Chapter 128 Qin Chis changes Chapter 128 Qin Chis changes Song Jin smelled the chicken leg, then put it in his mouth and tore off a piece of meat, "When did you come back?" "Just got back." Qin Chi replied while eating roast chicken, "I haven''t eaten for most of the day. This roast chicken is my life-saving food." When Song Jin heard what he said, he looked at him secretly and found that his clothes were wrinkled, and he looked like he was worn by the dust, "Can you bear it?" Qin Chi sat leaning against Song Jin. Hearing her words, half of his weight fell on her, "I''m a little sleepy and want to sleep." Song Jin vaguely felt that Qin Chi was different. Before he went on the study tour, he was a very well-behaved person, but when he came back he seemed a little more frivolous, although his behavior was very natural and his expression was magnanimous. These changes made Song Jin slightly uncomfortable. In order to cover up this discomfort, he blurted out: "Do you know that your uncle may be seriously ill?" Qin Chi''s body stiffened slightly, but he returned to his natural state for a moment, "I rushed back just after receiving the news. I went to see my uncle before that. The imperial doctor said that if the aconite prepared by Nancheng Liu Weng could be found and used as medicine, there might be a trace of it. Its a pity that something happened to Mr. Lius family two years ago and he was nowhere to be found. No matter how good the prescription is, it is in vain if there is no good medicine. What Helian Pu lacked was not a prescription for a disease. But a good medicine that can cure him. Song Jin''s eyes flashed slightly, and her heart was turning over and over again. The old man who taught her how to prepare medicinal materials in her previous life was named Liu. Does it have anything to do with Liu Weng in Qin Chi''s mouth? Next, Qin Chi stayed with Song Jin. He originally rested half-leaning on her, but later simply stretched out his arms to surround her, rested his head on her shoulder, and took a nap. Song Jin did not push him away. She was held by him very calmly, and it didn''t affect her from adding chaff to the stove every once in a while. Pharmacies are different from other factories. People are also busy at night. For example, some medicinal materials processing processes cannot be interrupted, such as steaming and frying. Hence the situation of Song Jin and Qin Chi in the drying yard. Not that no one saw it. It''s just that when he learned that the man was the husband of his employer, he started pretending to be deaf and dumb. The sky is getting brighter. The chaff surrounding the stove on the ground is still burning, but the ashes have piled high. When Yinlong hurried over, she was surprised to see the scene in front of her, "Miss, I''m here to replace you." Song Jin nodded stiffly. Not sure if he heard Yinlong speaking, Qin Chi woke up faintly, and then slowly opened his arms, "Is it dawn?" "Yes, my husband finally woke up." Song Jin''s face showed tiredness, and he gently rubbed his legs to remove the numbness from his legs. It felt so sour that I couldn''t stand up for a while anyway. Suddenly, her whole body rose up. Qin Chi bent down and picked her up, weighed her for a moment, and said to Yinlong: "I''ll leave the rest to you. I''ll take your boss back to rest." Song Jin was originally in shock. As soon as he saw Qin Chi hugging him and leaving, the ripples in his heart that just arose immediately disappeared, and he hurriedly explained the next thing, "Aunt Long is going to turn off the fire before noon. I will come and get it when the chaff is burned out and the gray is cold." "Okay, little lady." Yinlong responded with a gentle smile. Mrs. Li is feeding goat milk to her two children. Boss Qin was holding a bowl of milk at the side, looking as gentle as he could. When the two of them saw Qin Chi coming back with Song Jin in his arms, they just glanced at him and said nothing. Qin Chi carried the person back to the house. Song Jin said embarrassedly: "I''m back, you can put me down." "Are your legs still numb?" Qin Chi lowered his head and asked with a smile. Song Jin wanted to answer, but found that he was very close, and his breath suddenly shortened. "No, it''s not numb anymore..." "Oh!" Qin Chi put the person on the edge of the bed. Song Jin suddenly stood up and moved a few steps away from Qin Chi. He soon realized that this behavior was wrong, so he pretended to turn around and took the washbasin and toothbrush to go outside to fetch water to wash up. There are no Qin Chi''s clothes in this room. But that didn''t stop him from asking the secret guards to send it over. After Song Jin lingered outside for a long time, he returned to his room. Qin Chi had already put on a clean set of clothes and saw Song Jin still standing in front of the washstand. "Aren''t you tired, madam?" "Fortunately, he will wake up after washing his face." Song Jin put down his rolled-up sleeves and walked to the bed, "If you feel sleepy, take a rest. This is the room where I usually sleep. I''ll go take a look at the child first." After saying this, she turned around. Qin Chi suddenly grabbed her wrist, pulled her towards him, then circled her arms and both fell onto the bed, and then he trapped her to prevent her from getting up. "The child is taken care of by his parents. The most important thing for the mother to do now is to sleep." Qin Chi held her down and forced her to sleep. Seeing that Song Jin didn''t close her eyes, Qin Chi covered her eyes with his big hands, "It is rumored that a breakup is better than a wedding. Why do I feel that my wife is unfamiliar with me?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin disagreed with this. It wasn''t that she was unfamiliar, but that she noticed that Qin Chi had changed slightly after being away for half a year. It seemed like there was something extra. Song Jin leaned quietly in his arms, and could smell the faint smell of blood. It was clear that his behavior was not out of the ordinary. After all, they were husband and wife, and they would do anything out of the ordinary behind closed doors. Yes, but today there is always an invisible sense of oppression on him. Qin Chi waited for her to close her eyes, then held her in his arms and gently stroked her back as if to comfort her. Under his comfort, the person really relaxed and gradually fell asleep. At this time Qin Chi also understood. During this period of time away from home, I saw blood every now and then. The momentum accumulated in the rush back has not been completely restrained. I just need to adjust my mentality. But he didn''t expect Song Jin to be very sharp. When Song Jin woke up again, Qin Chi was no longer around. It was already past noon when I looked out the window. Song Jin simply ate something and then hurried to the drying yard. I saw Yinlong actually guarding there. Yinlong stood up immediately, "Little miss, the bran ash has become cold." Song Jin stretched out his hand and tried it, "It can be taken out." The two of them, one on the left and the other on the right, pushed aside the large pile of bran ash to reveal the bricks surrounding the stove. They took away the bricks, carefully peeled away the chaff ash, picked up the simmered monkshood underneath one by one, and then took them out. Use the small end of the aconite to knock the big end. Under sustained high temperatures, cavities will appear inside the aconite. If there is a hollow sound when tapping, it means that most of the poison of aconite has faded. However this is not enough. Yinlong went to get a diabolo screen to dry. Song Jin took the aconite out of the fire, placed it on a bamboo sieve, and then manually sifted away the chaff ash on the aconite. After a day of drying. Then put it into a wooden steamer, put it in a pot separated by water, and steam it continuously for seven hours to slowly evaporate out the remaining toxicity of the aconite. When steaming, the water in the big pot often dries out, so be careful to add water to the pot. Wait until the pot is cooked. Song Jin cut the aconite into thin slices himself. Place each piece on a clean bamboo sieve to dry. The finished aconite slices are light yellow, a very light yellow, which can also be said to be more white. When the cut slices are placed in the sun, they have a sense of transparency. The subsequent preparations were all done by Song Jin. Every time Qin Chi came to see Song Jin, he only saw her busy figure. When he saw the finished product, Qin Chi couldn''t hide his excitement. "This is exactly as the doctor described. I will arrange for someone to send it there immediately!" Qin Chi couldn''t wait to ask Song Jin to install the aconite. Song Jin really wanted to say that it needed to be dried some more. Drying makes it easier to store. Then he remembered that there was an urgent need over there, so he put the aconite in the can and handed it to Qin Chi. Qin Chi hugged the jar of monkshood and left in a hurry. Chapter 129 resist Chapter 129 Resistance "Boss, that''s..." Xing Lun came over and saw Qin Chi leaving, "Is there something urgent?" Before Song Jin could say anything, Xing Lun found the empty bamboo sieve again, with no aconite on it, and his heart felt cold. Isn''t the owner just giving away the freshly prepared medicinal materials out of emotion? I originally thought I would make a lot of money, but I didn''t expect it to be a loss-making business! "What''s going on in your head?" Song Jin had worked with Xing Lun for more than ten years in his previous life. When he saw that he was in a daze and glanced at the empty sieve several times, he knew what he was thinking, "It is safer to let Qin Chi take him away than to go out to receive the reward. There is no need." Worry about subsequent troubles. Qin Chi handed it over directly and Xing Lun handed it over several times, which was different after all. Song Jin knew that Xing Lun might want to expand his network of contacts, "Alun, it''s not appropriate for my life experience to be exposed before Yang Lingyu leaves Huizhou." Yang Lingyu will be transferred back to the capital at the end of the year to take up a post. Song Jin remembered this because he was married for two years in his previous life and when he first set foot in She County, he heard someone talking about the three things that made the new magistrate take office. Xing Lun felt guilty, "I didn''t think carefully." "It''s okay, it''s just that we are currently weak and cannot compete with Yang Lingyu." Song Jin and Xing Lun chatted for another half moment. After Xing Lun left, Song Jin went back to his residence and told Mr. Li that he was done with his work and could go back to Qinjiagou at any time. Ms. Li felt that it was quite comfortable to live in Yaofang. Xiaoyu helped take care of her children, and she didn''t have to face Mrs. Liu''s face. She just felt a little sorry for her man, who had to travel back and forth every day. In fact, Li asked Boss Qin not to bother, but he said he deserved it, so he still ran to her. So when Song Jin said he could go back. Li immediately packed her things. When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law returned to Qin''s house with their children, they found something strange at home. It turned out that Qin Mingsong came back to take the money to take the provincial examination in the provincial capital. He asked for fifty taels of money to spend. This large sum of money did not include the annual expenses for studying, but was just extra for going to the imperial examination. Mr. Liu wanted the big house to provide money. Boss Qin said he didn''t have any money, "Don''t all the money I earn throughout the year go to my mother? My pocket is cleaner than my face." "Mr. Li has it, let her come out. What''s going on with the help of you three brothers for such a big thing as the fourth pediatric exam?" Old Liu said matter-of-factly. Several men said nothing. But Xiao Liu, who was eavesdropping, exploded! "Mom said it lightly, let us collect fifty taels. What should we use to collect it? You always said that this family has not been divided yet, and you are not allowed to hide private rooms. You have looted the few pennies my man saved from starving before. ! Its only fifty taels! Why dont we just die! Xiao Liu burst into tears as she spoke, "Without Dalang''s help these years, I don''t know how I would have survived." Old Mrs. Liu was also angry. She slapped the tea table and said angrily: "Second daughter-in-law, don''t talk about what you have or what you don''t have. If you are asked to collect some money, just push three and four. When the fourth son becomes a Juren in the future, don''t even think about it." Zhan Guang "I won''t do it! Is it okay if I don''t get involved with my second wife? Mom, it''s better to separate us. I promise not to get involved with Qin Mingsong!" Xiao Liu is very tough. Qin Mingsong might as well rely on Dalang. Old man Qin glared at Mr. Qin, "Second brother, you still don''t care about your wife!" "Dad, what my wife said makes sense, and I have figured it out. In my parents'' hearts, only the fourth child is the only one, and the life and death of others does not matter. Don''t tell me that the father-in-law doesn''t have fifty taels!" Qin Laoer directly broke his face and lifted the fig leaf of the second elder, "You have it! But you insist on asking us for it, do you want to force a few of us to death?" "You! Second brother, you..." Old man Qin pointed at his son who was so generous and wanted to scold him. Qin Laosan said quietly: "Second brother, my parents don''t want us to collect money, but they want to force eldest brother and the others to pay." As soon as these words came out. Old Qin suddenly blushed with embarrassment. Fortunately, I have dark skin and my blush is not obvious. Old Liu didn''t have any scruples anymore, "What''s wrong with letting Dafang give out? This is what Dafang should pay out. Mrs. Li''s personal money saved before has been lost." "My wife has no money. Da Lang needs money to study, and he also needs money for his frequent illnesses. Da Lang spends money very quickly, which means he has no money to marry a wife." Boss Qin said firmly that he had no money. He knew Li''s temper. If he says he won''t give her any more, he definitely won''t. If he dares to agree without permission, he won''t have any good fruits to eat when she comes back. "You don''t have one, but doesn''t the elder man''s wife have one?" The beads in Old Liu''s abacus clicked loudly. Song Jin didn''t expect to hear this just after he came back. I have to lament the persistence of Mrs. Liu, who is still thinking about her dowry after such a long time. So Song Jin walked towards the main room. Before the people arrive, the sound comes first. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "I remember that Xiu''er once handed over a thousand taels of dowry silver to the public. Did the family spend it all so quickly?" Song Jin''s words fell into everyone''s ears clearly. It immediately caused a sensation among everyone. There are only a few people who know about this matter, and the second and third bedrooms really dont know. Old Qin didn''t dare to speak even if he wanted to scold him. At least Song Jin saved his face and didn''t tell him that he also took a thousand taels. Song Jin glanced at the two elders lightly. This man becomes more and more shameless as he gets older. At this moment, the doors of the four houses were opened by someone from inside. Song Xiu poked his head out and accidentally caught Song Jin''s sight. The atmosphere was slightly stiff. Song Xiu came out of the room with her back straight and her chin raised slightly. Just as she was about to open her mouth to speak, she found that Song Jin had put away her eyes and stepped towards the threshold of the main room. This made Song Xiu hold back the words that reached her mouth, as if a breath was suddenly stuck in her throat. Song Jin originally thought that the main room would be lively, but Boss Qin walked out without saying a word and went straight to help Li carry his luggage. The two children were also carried back to Li''s house. Boss Qin left, and Boss Qin sneered coldly, got up and went out. Xiao Liu wanted to make a scene but Qin Laoer stopped her. Qin Laoer glared at Old Qin and Old Liu, "We have thousands of taels of silver, but we still worry about the three melons and two dates in our hands. You are such good parents. Have you never thought that the things in the family will be divided?" For us three brothers? Thats it now. If the fourth brother really becomes famous in the future, we wont be able to take advantage of it, right? "Is this what the second child thinks of us?" Old Qin frowned and looked at Mr. Qin with disapproval. Qin Laoer clenched his fists angrily, veins popping out, "It''s not that we think so, it''s that you have already done this!" "That''s right! I''m still begging for the second house now. If I really succeed in the future, how good will the second house be? If I give him a few melons and two dates, I might as well help the elder to study. At least he won''t be able to go to the hospital to take the exam. When I ask my family for money, I feel so embarrassed when I think about the money I spent on my uncle! Xiao Liu finally saw through these two old guys. In the past, the couple still had some respect for their elders. Ever since Qin Mingsong and Qin Chi got married, things happened one after another in the family. The most important thing is to have a living example like Qin Chi as a comparison. Unknowingly, I became disappointed with the two elders. Chapter 130 Song Jin is not a human being Chapter 130 Song Jin is not a human being The long-term support for Qin Mingsong''s education did not go well. On the contrary, they did not pay a penny for Qin Chi, but he always took care of the second house and allowed Erlang and Sanlang to study. Those who do not exploit them will benefit them. Only if you have a hairy brain will you continue to support Qin Mingsong? The dissatisfaction in my heart accumulates over time, and even if an opportunity comes, it will explode. Old man Qin knew something was wrong. I was just about to say a few words to calm down. But Old Liu jumped out, pointed at their noses and cursed: "You two have no conscience. After the fourth son became a scholar, the family''s labor and taxes were exempted. Didn''t you see? Without the fourth son, you still have to go to serve every year. No one knows when you will die there! Si''er is equivalent to your life-saving benefactor, an ungrateful thing! I tell you, I will take it even if I dont want to take it this time, and I will take out the money even if I die! " This old Mr. Liu is so arrogant that it really doesn''t make sense. What she said is reasonable here. She doesnt agree with anything others say! Suddenly, Old Qin winked at Old Liu. Mrs. Liu immediately slapped her chest, looking like she was about to be angry with her son, "Unfilial descendants, you want to make me angry to death! Oh my God, why don''t you have eyes..." Excellent in both singing and composition. Qin Lao Er was so angry that his veins were bulging. When Xiao Liu saw something was wrong, she quickly dragged the man out of the main room. On the way out. The two of them looked at Song Jin and then stopped. When the two wanted to open their mouths to say something, Song Jin motioned for them to go out first. There were only three people in the main room now. The two elders and Song Jin. Old Mrs. Liu wanted to continue crying, but when she saw Song Jin''s eyes that were half-smiling but not smiling, she couldn''t stop crying. Even Old Man Qin''s old face was so embarrassed that he was so embarrassed. Song Jin always had a polite smile on his face, "Uncle Qin, do you really not have fifty taels like this?" "It really doesn''t make you laugh anymore." Old Man Qin said with a bitter smile: "Last time, your sister offended the Bai family in Fucheng and spread rumors to cause trouble, ruining Miss Bai''s reputation. Si''er always had to settle the matter for her, so he spent more than 1,800 taels. , I bought a set of high-quality Four Treasures of the Study and sent them as a gift to apologize." "That''s because Xiu''er has implicated uncle." Song Jin''s tone was ordinary, just like chatting, "Let her respect you from now on, whether she is a cow or a horse." This made Old Qin not sure what she was thinking. Song Jin was not afraid of investigating the matter of giving the Four Treasures of the Study. After the incident, Qin Mingsong indeed gave another set of the Four Treasures of the Study to Bai Daru and handed it over to Bai Cuiwei, making it clear that it was a private apology. The four treasures of the study worth one thousand eight hundred taels, needless to say, are Hui ink, She inkstone, Wang Boli pen, and Chengxintang paper. The better the quality of these four things, the more expensive they are. Still priceless. Old man Qin didn''t say that he didn''t spend a single copper for this set of things. The reason was that he had occasionally received them from Qin Chi over the years, just like when Qin Chi gave a set of the Four Treasures of the Study as a dowry to Song Jin. The things were made by Qin Chi. Then it is inevitable that you will have some at home. Old Qin was so happy to see that he was hunting, so it was not surprising that he took one or two items each. It''s just that the quality is not as good as what Qin Chi gave to Song Jin, but it is still a rare product on the market. After all, if things go wrong, Qin Chi won''t stay. Qin Chi didn''t know about this, otherwise he might die from diaphragm. There were one or two missing things from the house before, so he thought it was Li who took them away. Old Qin wanted to put aside what he had done today. Let''s get some benefits from Song Jin by the way. As a result, Song Jin asked with a smile: "Who does Uncle Qin want to take care of you in the future? This is not a pleasant question, but it is very realistic. I think uncle is a knowledgeable person and should not believe in the idea that parents should not separate families. One thing to say. Old man Qin became more and more uncertain. There was something wrong with Song Jin''s words. Unfortunately, he didn''t see it through for a while. But since Song Jin directly called him uncle, old man Qin knew that there was no chance of trying to get money from his eldest son today. Just as Qin Chi originally evaluated. Old Qin was a pragmatic person, and he actually started thinking after hearing Song Jin''s words. "Of course we will follow Si''er in the future!" Old Mrs. Liu jumped out and jumped up again, "My son will become a high official in the future and win me a royal wife! If you don''t provide me with money now, you won''t be able to take advantage of it in the future." For women in this world. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The imperial edict is a very high honor, and it is the kind of person who can honor his ancestors even after death. There is no woman who does not desire to be granted a title. After Song Jin heard this, he immediately understood something. Qin Mingsong wouldn''t just hang his life on old Liu, but would always charge into battle for him. It''s really possible. In the Great Xia Dynasty, "officials above the fifth rank were promoted to imperial edicts, and officials below the sixth rank were given imperial edicts." That is to say, only the mother of an official above the fifth rank could be granted imperial edicts. Lady Gaoming is a symbol of honor. Although he has no real power, he is extremely glorious and can also receive salary, fields, houses and other properties granted by the court. Moreover, there will be a grand conferment ceremony, and corresponding gowns, hats, chariots, etc. will be awarded. This will be officially recorded and will accompany him throughout his life and after his death, and will be honored by his descendants. In short, Mrs. Gaoming is a way for women to improve their social status. In this world where men are superior to women, it will give women more protection and confidence. Song Jin suddenly understood why Mr. Liu was partial to Qin Mingsong. To put it nicely, he loves his son. In fact, it is also for myself. Song Xiu, who had sneaked over, happened to hear Song Jin saying that he was being asked to serve as a slave to the two old guys. He was so angry that he almost ran out and scolded Song Jin for not being a human being. Why should she make the decision? Who wants to be filial to those two old guys! But then she remembered that Qin Mingsong was about to win the imperial examination, and Song Xiu suppressed her noisy thoughts. It''s a critical moment, so you can''t do anything bad. "Auntie, what are you doing so sneakily?" Sanlang stepped into the courtyard with his schoolbag on his back. As soon as he saw eavesdropping in front of the main room, he ran over quickly. Song Xiu was so frightened that she immediately stayed away from the main room and turned to look at Sanlang who was looking at her with a gossipy face, "It''s you little brat again! Get away and don''t touch me!" After saying this, Song Xiuren ran back to the house. Sanlang also wanted to call Song Xiu to stop. After hearing this, Song Jin in the main room looked back at the door, and then said as if he was cutting flesh with a knife: "Don''t worry about the scarcity but the inequality. I believe Uncle Qin knows this truth very well. You still did this even though you knew this. This makes me sad." One cant help but wonder if the eldest, second, and third eldest sons have been abandoned for a long time? Its understandable. Compared with a son with a bright future, it doesnt matter if the others dont die. Old Qin''s eyes widened suddenly. There was a deep trace of panic hidden in his eyes, as well as the embarrassment and anger of having someone reveal his innermost thoughts to his face. Then Bai Daru said that it would not be a problem for Si''er to pass the examination. This was an opportunity for his family to change their family. He was right to value Si''er, but the family didn''t have enough money. Old Liu wanted to get some from Dafang, and he thought it was okay before. But now there''s a fuss. The three sons reacted violently, far beyond Old Man Qin''s expectations. At this time, Old Man Qin also vaguely felt that today''s move seemed to be a mistake. (End of chapter) Chapter 131 I understand this Chapter 131 I understand this Why didn''t Song Jin say anything? Qin Laoer and Xiao Liu went back to the second room. The more Xiao Liu thought about it, the angrier she became, "In the past, it was you and my eldest brother who did the labor every year. It doesn''t matter if my mother-in-law doesn''t feel bad about it, but she still wants us to be grateful to our fourth brother? What''s the point of this?" "Mom has always been unreasonable, not just for a day or two." Qin Laoer only felt chilled. Among the three former brothers. The second room is okay. The reason is that the old Mrs. Liu did not dare to challenge the little Mrs. Liu, and he could not completely control her. Therefore, they are not as pessimistic as Qin Laosan, and they have long been disappointed with the second elder. Qin Daya and Erlang were sitting in the corner. I listened quietly to my parents talking. After a while, Saburo, a clever little guy, also came over. When he learned what happened at home, he shook his head and said: "Oh, our family is losing money." "What''s the loss?" Qin Daya asked in a low voice. Sanlang counted with his fingers, "My parents have provided for my uncle to study for ten years. On average, he spends fifty taels every year, which is already five hundred taels..." "Dad said that my uncle spent more than one hundred and forty taels last year." Qin Daya interrupted Sanlang. Sanlang thought the same thing, "I''m talking about average. My uncle spent so much money because he went to Fucheng to study. In short, the money saved for his study is enough to cover three years of hard labor and there is still something left." Qin Mingsong was a scholar three years ago. In fact, some things are not calculated like this by Saburo. When it comes to having a good time, my family members do have a good time. For a farmer''s family, if there are talented people in the family, the social status will also be improved. At least there will be no squire bully in the ten miles away. This is an invisible benefit. There are also many privileges on the surface. For example, the law of this dynasty stipulates that two members of a family can be exempted from taxes except themselves. In actual practice, when local government levies food, they will give priority to tax reductions and exemptions for students'' families. Shengyuan refers to scholars. As long as you become a scholar, you can get up to 80 acres of tax-free land, and the maximum tax-free land for a person is 400 acres. The specific amount depends on local policies. The Qin family only has a dozen acres of farmland, and they don''t have to pay taxes, including the medicinal fields, and they are exempted from annual corvee. You must know that corvee in this dynasty is very heavy, and deaths are common. The benefits are still obvious. If Qin Chi had not been selected as a scholar, the Qin family would probably not have thought much about it. There are two living examples right in front of you. Always remind the Qin family. Moreover, the second and third bedrooms are closer to Qin Chi. For them, Qin Chi is a scholar and can also be exempted from service and taxes, so they don''t need Qin Mingsong so much. It is normal for unwanted people to be disliked. And this person wants to continue sucking blood, and even children can''t stand it. In three houses. Qin Laosan was mumbling like Lin. Having lived in the countryside all their lives, they don''t know much about studying, but Haolai still understands it. "This year Da Lang went to the provincial capital to take the exam, but he didn''t ask for fifty taels from his family." Mrs. Lin frowned tightly. "Can he compete with Dalang?" Qin Laosan''s words were sarcastic, and then he said, "When Dalang comes home and ask him, I suspect that he is deliberately asking for more money." After a pause, Qin Laosan said again: "Actually, it doesn''t matter whether you ask or not. You and I don''t talk about collecting money. It''s quite difficult to come up with a tael of silver." Mrs. Lin lowered her eyeshadow and continued to mend the clothes in her hands, "Brother Qing, let''s not talk about this anymore. Dalang''s family gave me a piece of navy blue cloth a few days ago. Can I sew you a gown?" "What kind of long gown are you making? That''s what scholars wear. Just make me a short gown." When Qin Laosan heard that he was going to have new clothes, most of his gloomy eyebrows disappeared, "It''s better to be the older man. If you have him at home, you don''t have to worry." "Well, that''s good." Lin responded softly. "Okay, hello, big brother." Qin Sanya''s childish little voice also said, "Give Cake and Tangtang Sanya something to eat." Qin Laosan was immediately happy, picked up his daughter and threw her away. The little girl giggled with joy. It is different from the three-bedroom father and daughter having fun together. Today, the old Qin family is full of fun. Song Jin was packing her things when she returned to the house. Song Xiu came over gloomily and asked her, "Why do you let me work for others?" "Sorry, I changed my mind." Song Jin suddenly said this, "The cows and horses are so innocent, they want to be put in the same category as you." "You''ve gone too far!" Song Xiu pointed at Song Jin and cursed. Seeing this, Song Jin''s eyes flashed slightly, and he said with a hint of ridicule in his smile: "Today, in order to collect exam fees for Qin Mingsong, the family was disturbed. Do you want to know what I asked from Uncle Qin?" Song Xiu glared at Song Jin angrily. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! He was waiting for her next sentence. Unexpectedly, Song Jin changed the subject and said, "You and I each got a thousand taels, why do we have to ask everyone to collect more money? We can''t even get out a mere fifty taels." Song Xiu had a vague premonition. Her hunch turned out to be correct. Song Jin looked at her with pity again, "Because the money was used to buy gifts for Bai Cuiwei, the four treasures of the study worth 1,800 taels, and in the name of apologizing for you, haha, it''s so disgusting. To teach the wife a lesson for spying on her husband, and then apologize in return, you have disgraced women all over the world, and you have also disgraced our Song family." "That''s nonsense!" Song Xiu shouted angrily, "Nothing, you must be lying to me!" What responded to her was not Song Jin''s words, but the deeply mocking eyes. This is more intolerable to Song Xiu than any language! "Just wait for me. I''ll ask Qin Mingsong. If you lie, I won''t be done with you!" Song Xiu dropped the harsh words, turned around and left quickly. This is to go back to the house to confront Qin Mingsong. The Four Treasures of the Study, worth 1,800 taels, was something she, Song Xiu, had never experienced before when she was in the Song family. After Song Xiu left, Song Jin paid some attention to the fourth room. Waited for a while. There was no movement in the fourth room, only the faint sound of voices could be heard, but it could not be heard clearly through the wall and door. Song Jin went out to the door and took a look outside. On the contrary, I saw that naughty boy Saburo sneaking closer to the door of the fourth room, squatting outside the door and listening with great interest. This is so speechless! Song Jin didn''t know what to say for a moment. "Bang!" Suddenly there was a loud noise in the fourth room. It sounded like someone slamming the table or bed board. The next moment, Song Xiu screamed angrily, "Qin Mingsong! Are you worthy of me?" Then there was a new round of smashing things. Song Xiu in the room seemed to have gone crazy. He was smashing things in the room as if to vent his anger, cursing at the same time: "You are shameless when you buy something to give to your mistress. What more shame do I need?! I asked you to give me an apology, I asked you to give me an apology!" Bang bang bang This big movement attracted more than just people in the room. Even the neighbors heard it. When old man Qin came out and saw Sanlang, his face turned dark, "Sanlang, go and close the courtyard door! Don''t let outsiders in." "Okay, grandpa." Sanlang happily complied, "Don''t make a family scandal public. I understand this." Old Qin''s chest suddenly felt tight. There is no one in the family who is worry-free, and I dont even know who I am. (End of chapter) Chapter 132 two faces Chapter 132 Two faces The farce between Qin Mingsong and Song Xiu, no one knew that Song Jin deliberately instigated it. After Song Xiu made a big fuss, he cried heartbrokenly. While crying, she also scolded Qin Mingsong for failing her. Song Jin only felt ironic when he heard this. I have never seen Song Xiu cry so miserably before something happened to the Song family. He''s just a man! The Qin family got together again to break up the fight. He advised Song Xiu to be more open-minded and accused Qin Mingsong of not being a son of a man and wanting to abandon his original wife before he became a master. Song Jin listened. I always feel that others are doing this on purpose, deliberately trying to spite Qin Mingsong. Qin Mingsong is also a tolerant person. He didn''t show any anger at the accusations made by the three eldest brothers. He explained calmly and swore to the sky that he did not have an extramarital affair. After everyone dispersed, Qin Mingsong looked at Song Xiu again with nothing but indifference, "I thought you really cared about my future before, but I didn''t expect you were just acting. If word spreads that our husband and wife are at odds, what good will it do to you?" "I, I couldn''t help it..." After Song Xiu vented his anger, he was frightened when he returned to reason. There was no pity in Qin Mingsong''s eyes, "I hope you will pretend to be happy and harmonious in the future. Don''t let others laugh. You should look like a scholar." "I, I, I know." Song Xiu responded with tears in his eyes. Qin Mingsong saw Song Xiu''s delicate and crying posture again, and then thought of her crazy and rebellious appearance just now. They were two extremes. He had never seen anyone switch between two faces so naturally. Qin Mingsong felt an inexplicable chill in his heart. This is a woman like a mad dog, her mind seems not normal. The excitement is gone. The courtyard door opened again, and there were a few meddling women outside. Someone asked what happened, but Xiao Liu answered perfunctorily. Qin Mingsong went out to the main room. He only stayed for half a quarter of an hour before he came out, taking with him the fifty taels given by Old Liu. Then Old Man Qin personally sent him to Fucheng. Then Mrs. Liu, who had no one to suppress her, started to curse again. After scolding the first bedroom, he scolded the second bedroom. After scolding the second bedroom, it was the third bedroom''s turn. He would scold whoever he caught. "A bunch of white-eyed wolves should be suffocated to death when they are born, so that they don''t make me angry when they grow up. I don''t know what I did in my last life to give birth to you guys..." Old Liu scolded him. No one paid attention to her. If you can''t afford to offend, can you still afford to hide? So everyone who should work went to work, and everyone who could go out went out. Song Jin hid in Li''s house again to help take care of the two children. "Didn''t Dalang say he''s back? Why is he nowhere to be seen?" Mrs. Li thought Qin Chi was returning to Qinjiagou when she saw him leaving before. She didn''t see anyone when she came back, so she learned that Qin Chi didn''t go home. Mrs. Li chatted again: "It''s okay that I haven''t come back. It''s a lot of trouble. Listen, if you are scolded so fiercely outside, you probably feel sorry for the fifty taels of silver." "Did your mother see this?" Song Jin really didn''t expect this. Mrs. Li has lived with Mr. Liu for twenty years. "The more guilty this person is, the more violent he will be. He just said that the family has no money, and then turns around and has it again. This is equivalent to a slap in the face." "Mom can still understand." Song Jin complimented him unconsciously. It was already three days before Qin Chi returned home, suddenly coming back late at night. Song Jin was drowsily asleep when he suddenly noticed someone else beside him. When he woke up, he realized it was Qin Chi. Qin Chi raised his hand and gently stroked her cheek, "It''s me. I woke you up. Just keep sleeping." Song Jin sighed softly and closed his eyes again. Ling''s big hand caressing her cheek was suddenly in the air, with really mixed feelings. My husband didn''t come back from a night out. Doesn''t she miss him when he comes back? Qin Chi, who seemed to be venting his anger, turned sideways and let her rest on his arm, and then held her in his arms forcefully. Then he closed his sleepy eyes with some satisfaction. After running around for these days, he was actually already sleepy. He fell asleep not long after, until he woke up the next day and saw Song Jin getting dressed in front of the bed. Then he looked out the window and found that it was already dawn. Song Jin saw Qin Chi awake and said with a smile, "I''ll go to my mother''s place to see the two children." "I''ll go see them later too." What Qin Chi thinks about most when he is away from home is his family. Apart from their parents, there are their three mothers. Wait for Qin Chi to go outside to fetch water and wash up. This guy Saburo came up to him. That little look in his eyes meant he had something to say. Qin Chi finished washing up slowly, and then he had time to ask: "Tell me, what happened at home?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Brother, it''s a big deal." Sanlang winked at him, "My uncle wants fifty taels for the scientific examination, and grandpa and grandma want us to come and join in..." With a small mouth, he spoke clearly and clearly to Qin Chi. This ten-year-old boy can explain things so clearly, which shows that he has an amazing talent for gossip. After hearing this, Qin Chi nodded and signaled him to go have breakfast quickly, so as not to be punished by his master for being late to the private school. "Ahhh! It''s almost late!" Sanlang screamed and quickly wanted to run to the second room. As a result, he turned around and almost hit Erlang. Erlang carried two schoolbags and said, "Go to the kitchen to get two pancakes to eat on the way to school." "Okay!" Sanlang entered the kitchen in a hurry. Erlang smiled and said reservedly: "Brother, is it fun to go on a study tour?" "It''s okay if you can gain experience." Qin Chi wanted him to study hard, but thinking of the touching reading talents of the two brothers, he still gave up, "You also have something to say?" "The soot in the backyard has been sitting there for a year." Erlang smiled shyly. Qin Chi then remembered the cigarettes he had taken last year, and immediately said a few words to Erlang, then picked up the washbasin and returned to the house, put it down and went to his parents'' room. Two milk dumplings were lying on the small bed, and Song Jin and Li were changing the children''s diapers. "Mom, where''s dad?" Qin Chi looked around the room. Li said: "Your father went to the ground before dawn, are you finally willing to come back? If you stay away from home for a little longer, Huzi and Niuniu will soon learn to walk. Okay, take the children away quickly." Ms. Li urged the couple to take the child away quickly. So each of them carried the other back to his house. The two children rarely saw Qin Chi as their father, but they were willing to let him hold them, and they didn''t look strange at all. Song Jin looked back at the open door, "How is uncle''s health?" "Same old." Qin Chi felt heavy in his heart, "The aconite prepared by my wife has been tested by the imperial doctor and said it can be used as medicine." "That''s good." Song Jin noticed his solemnity, "If you need any help from me, just ask." "Thank you, madam, for your husband''s understanding." What else did Qin Chi want to say. The child in her arms suddenly started crying. Qin Chi was at a loss when the child cried. After all, the way he held the child was unfamiliar, and the child was not comfortable being held by him. Song Jin took over and stopped crying immediately. Qin Chi pinched his son''s little face and said, "Haha, at such a young age, you know how to watch other people''s dishes. How can you do it when you grow up?" (End of chapter) Chapter 133 close Chapter 133 Closeness The days that followed were peaceful and lively. Patriarch Qin and others knew that Qin Mingsong had participated in the provincial examination, and would come over to talk to old man Qin every now and then. Therefore, the most talked about topic at home was this year''s provincial examination. At this time, Mr. Liu was the quietest. No matter how noisy the old woman is, she will not dare to act arrogantly in front of the clan leader. During this time, Qin Chi was at home. Erlang and Sanlang just had a vacation, so they asked Qin Chila to go to the backyard to learn how to make Hui ink. Its been a year since the ash last rested. One year the smoke has gone away. In the basin holding the ash, add the same amount of beef glue. Use a stick to stir and glue, then add gold powder, cinnabar, borneol, pearl powder and musk, and continue stirring. The last step is the crucial step of inking. By repeatedly tapping the ink stick, the glue will not solidify and further blend with the smoke until the surface of the ink stick is shiny and has no obvious particles. This is simple to describe, but the process is hard work. Especially for inking, you need to beat it at least ten thousand times. The two brothers took turns swinging the hammer to hit the ink. All day long, banging sounds were heard in the backyard. The brothers were sweating profusely from beating and even their clothes were soaked. Qin Chi didn''t say yes, so they kept beating and couldn''t stop. It doesnt matter if my hands are sore or hurt from the beating. Qin Chi reminded: "When the hammer falls, the hammer should be flat, and be careful to hit it flat!" This time, he mainly taught his two cousins ????so that even if they failed to study, they would still have a craft. Therefore, Qin Chi relied on his mouth to guide the whole process of making Hui ink, and the one who got started was either Erlang or Sanlang. The brothers wrote ink from early in the morning until dusk. It''s late at night again. Qin Chi heard that it was too noisy. He went over to check the ink **** and saw that the surface was shiny. "That''s it. Let''s weigh it again, one or two." Erlang is here to do this. Saburo was yawning. Children get sleepy early, but they can''t sleep yet because they haven''t finished their work. The two brothers cooperated. One is for weighing, and the other is for rolling strips. Then put it into a wooden rectangular mold to shape. After squeezing to solidify the ink, and then taking it out from the mold, you have the prototype of the ink strip. Next take out a wooden box. Sprinkle a layer of plant ash on the bottom of the box, then lay a piece of rice paper, lay the newly formed ink strips flat in the box, then cover it with a piece of rice paper, and sprinkle plant ash on top. This is done to absorb the moisture of the half moon. "After half a month, you two take them out, tie them up one by one with thin hemp rope, and hang them to dry for another half a year. When the ink strips are completely dry, you can then apply gold and wax." Qin Chi explained every step of the process of making Hui ink in detail. The night is bright and clear, and there is an endless sound of insects outside the house. Several tung oil lamps were lit in the thatched hut. The person stood under the dim yellow tung oil lamp, and the dim light outlined his outline softly and mysteriously. The eyebrows are like distant mountains lying horizontally, and the eyes are like autumn water containing stars. The handsome face seems to have traces of the tranquility of time. The green shirt stretches with the body, the skirt is lightly gathered, and the cuffs reveal the slightest hint of ink fragrance. In this mysterious and quiet night, it shows a transcendent and refined aura. Song Jin holds a lamp in his hand. A soft glow illuminates the ground. She came here specifically to look for Qin Chi. She was moving forward with some hesitation, but she accidentally saw the man standing in the swaying lights, like the moon in a fairyland in a painting. The simple thatched house could not hide his light at all. Unconsciously, the steps stopped. I''m hesitating whether to move forward... Qin Chi suddenly turned to look at Song Jin. The woman appeared here holding a lamp. She was obviously worried about him in the dead of night. She suddenly felt a warm current surge in her heart. Her shallow and affectionate eyes fell on the woman''s beautiful face, which was amazing and touching. Song Jin lightly lifted the lotus steps and walked to Qin Chi. "My husband didn''t come back to the house all night. I was thinking about it, so I came out to have a look." The gentle tone revealed concern for Qin Chi. The moment Song Jin''s red lips parted, as if she was being bewitched by something, Qin Chi slowly stretched out his hand to touch her cheek, gently feeling the smooth skin, and a trace of unspeakable joy quietly surged in his heart. . Ambiguity circulated between the two. Even though there were two brothers in the thatched house, they did not disturb the world that belonged to the couple. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Brother is so bad. He touched my sister-in-law''s face with his dirty hands and painted her face into a little cat." The crisp boy''s smiling words shattered the ambiguity between the two of them in a shocking way. Qin Chi slowly turned around and glanced at Sanlang with a smile on his face, "Come here!" Sanlang quickly slipped over, raised his little head and asked excitedly: "What did eldest brother ask me to do?" "To show you the consequences of mocking us." Qin Chi smeared the black soot in his hand onto Sanlang''s face, causing Sanlang to wail repeatedly. Now he has become a little cat. Then Qin Chi went to the wooden barrel next to him and washed his hands clean, "Sanlang, Erlang, take a rest early when you''re done. Your sister-in-law has come to find you, and it''s hard for my eldest brother to accompany you anymore." Why is there a hint of showoff in that tone? The two brothers didn''t hear it, but Qin Yi in the dark did. Song Jin was in a daze. It cannot be denied that she was bewitched just now and her mind wandered a little, but Saburo''s voice brought her back to reality. Qin Chi came to Song Jin in a few steps. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and carefully wiped Song Jin''s face. His hand was indeed stained with black soot just now, but it was only a little bit on her cheek. Wipe it carefully and it will be clean quickly. Then he put the handkerchief away. The two of them walked back to the house side by side. Time quickly came to the third day of August when the results of the rural examination were released. The Qin family''s medicinal field harvest was sold for more than twenty taels of silver, and medicinal seedlings had been replanted, waiting for another harvest next year. At the same time, the relationship between Qin Chi and Song Jin unknowingly became much closer. The parties involved took it for granted, but the onlookers turned into lemonade. "The short-lived ghost...why isn''t he dead yet..." Song Xiu peeked out of the crack in the door and saw Qin Chi and Song Jin talking in the yard, "My husband will soon be the master of civil affairs, and you, Song Jin, are beyond your reach, huh..." Song Xiu was excited again when he thought that the news about Qin Mingsong''s passing would come back. Today she put on a new dress and her favorite headdress, just to welcome her upcoming moment of glory. The day of feeling proud is coming! Suddenly, Qin Chi glanced sideways at the fourth room, his cold eyes frightening Song Xiu to shrink instinctively. There were many people sitting in the Qin family''s courtyard today. In addition to the Qin family, there are also more than a dozen elders such as village chief Chen and the clan chief, as well as aunts and uncles, who are also sitting in the yard eating melon seeds and chatting about the problems of the east and west families. Qin Mingsong passed the imperial examination. Qin Chi received the news yesterday that he actually won fifth place, ranking very high. But the good news is coming from the Yamen today, so everyone gathers in the yard to wait. Chapter 134 Qin Mingsong passed the examination Chapter 134 Qin Mingsong passed the exam The morning sun smiles in the spring breeze, and the willow silk dances in green. A clear stream flows around the village. The village girls washing clothes by the stream, the old men carrying water, and the children playing at the entrance of the village all reveal the tranquil atmosphere of rural life. "Clang clang clang!" "Dong dong dong!" The sound of gongs and drums comes from far and near. The peace of the village was suddenly broken. Its the Yamens team announcing the news! The officer''s face was beaming with joy. Villagers rushed out of their homes. Following the footsteps of the officials, we came all the way to Qin''s house. In the courtyard, Old Qin, Old Liu and others stood up excitedly when they heard the sound of gongs and drums. "Here he comes! The official messenger is here to announce the good news!" The children ran to see it and came back excitedly. "It''s good to come, it''s good to come!" Chief Qin smiled happily, and the official messenger who announced the good news came to visit. His heart dropped to pieces, and his joy was beyond words. It is definitely a good thing for the family to have a successor in the clan. Before the official entered the courtyard, Song Jin took the two children back to the house without Qin Chi''s instructions. As soon as the officials arrived in front of Qin''s house, they stopped playing gongs and drums. People waiting for the good news crowded into a courtyard. I saw the leading official holding the good news and loudly saying: "Your son Qin Mingsong won the fifth place in the provincial examination. I am here to report the good news! Mr. Qin, Mr. Qin has great literary talents, talents and virtues. He is truly an honor to our hometown!" Suddenly, a burst of cheers broke out. Old man Qin hurriedly stepped forward to salute and thank the emperor for his great kindness. After Qin Mingsong won the imperial examination, he was still preparing to attend the official deer singing banquet held by the provincial government and had not yet returned to his hometown. The official clearly knew the situation, and after receiving the reward, he offered to leave without staying any longer. Send away the official team. After such an experience, people from all over the country knew that it was extremely rare for a village in the corner of Qinjiagou to have an official. Besides, Old Man Qin and Mr. Liu were surrounded by a group of villagers, enjoying all kinds of congratulations and compliments. Qin Chi looked at his wife, who was as pale as a chrysanthemum. Song Jin didn''t seem happy about Qin Mingsong''s success. "Aren''t you happy to hear that your uncle has won the election?" Qin Chi stood next to Song Jin, looking at the scene outside the courtyard through the door, and asked softly. Song Jin raised her lips lightly, "It''s not like my husband won the election, so why should I be happy?" Qin Chi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then chuckled, "My lady is right." The glory of a wife is given by her husband. Her brother-in-law was elected, and it really had little to do with her. "I didn''t expect that my uncle''s grades were very good and he actually got fifth place." This was different from his previous life. Song Jin remembered that Qin Mingsong did not enter the top ten in his previous life. Qin Chi thought of the news he had received, "Since the last time Song Xiu went to Fucheng to make a fuss, my uncle has been studying hard. Somehow, he caught Bai Daru''s eyes and took him to teach him carefully. With my uncle His talent has obviously benefited a lot. After a pause, Qin Chi added: "In the imperial examination, it is not only necessary to pass the academic test, but it is also important to study the examiner''s preferences for the articles. My uncle may not be able to find these, but Bai Daru can. It is normal to rank higher." "Send Song Xiu there and let him get it, okay?" Song Jin frowned lightly. Qin Chi couldn''t help laughing, "What do you mean?" "The matter between Qin Mingsong and his daughter has not yet been fully understood. It is really strange that Bai Daru would bring someone to teach him. Isn''t this scholar most concerned about reputation?" Song Jin was very puzzled by this. Qin Chi explained: "The headmaster of the first hospital also needs to make achievements. In addition, my brother-in-law has concealed his personal relationship well. On the surface, there is nothing wrong with his response." Putting aside his personal prejudices, Bai Daru also liked Qin Mingsong''s character. Qin Mingsong has always had a good reputation outside. There was an endless stream of people from the Qin clan coming to congratulate him. Everyone was beaming with joy, sharing the glory and joy that belonged to the entire family. Patriarch Qin announced on the spot that when Qin Mingsong came back, he would open an ancestral hall to comfort his ancestors. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Usually a big banquet is held and the whole clan celebrates together. When a Juren is born in the family, or a Juren is born in the clan, not only the fate of the family can be changed, but the fate of the entire family will also be changed because of this good news. Because people can also be officials, but the rank will not be high and the possibility of promotion is not high. If you reach the top, you will be a county magistrate. But for ordinary people, being the head of a county is already a good thing. future. So in the eyes of people in the village. Qin Mingsong has already made his mark. The attention this received was naturally unusual. Song Xiu was feeling proud today. After receiving waves of flattery, Song Xiu saw that Qin Chi was called by Old Man Qin to receive visitors and no longer stayed with Song Jin. As expected, she came to Song Jin to show off. "Did you see it, sister? This honor is mine!" Song Xiu pursed her lips and snickered, feeling happy in her heart. Seeing that Song Jin was indifferent and was playing with her daughter''s little hand, Song Xiu was unhappy and said, "From now on, I will be a lady who will be elected, and I will not be on the same level as my sister. After all, you are just a talented lady, hey." He gave a fake sigh. The pride on his face was not hidden in front of Song Jin. Song Jin put her daughter on the crib, then looked up at Song Xiu, who was carefully dressed, and said sympathetically: "Qin Mingsong won fifth place, which is an unprecedented result, haven''t you ever thought about why? " This "before" refers to the past life. Song Xiu covered her lips with a handkerchief and giggled: "Of course it''s because of me. I am a lucky person. It is because of marrying me that my husband has a good ranking." Song Jin didn''t know what to say when he heard this. When it comes to who is the most shameless, it has to be Song Xiu. How can a person be so thick-skinned? It''s really strange. However, thinking of what he was going to instigate next, Song Jin naturally did not refute Song Xiu, "It''s really because of you. If you hadn''t made such a fuss in Fucheng, Qin Mingsong wouldn''t have been able to secretly communicate with Bai Cuiwei like he did in his previous life. Qu, he would not devote all his energy to studying, so he attracted Bai Daru''s attention, and thus won Bai Daru''s favor and brought him to teach. " Song Xiu looked confused after hearing this. Song Jin chuckled again and said: "Bai Daru is Bai Cuiwei''s father. She is an old daughter. Even though she is a concubine, she is loved by Bai Daru." As she listened, Song Xiu could tell something was wrong. Song Jin also clicked and stopped. The rest is all up to Song Xiu''s own imagination. Song Jin knew that Song Xiu had a suspicious temper. When he knew that Qin Mingsong and Bai Cuiwei''s father were close, how could he not suspect that they were disconnected? Song Xiu was beaming with joy when he came, but he was gloomy when he left. When I was at the door, I bumped into Mr. Liu. Mrs. Liu brought a plate of pastries over to find Song Jin. Seeing Song Xiu like that, she looked back several times in surprise. Chapter 135 Hooked up Chapter 135 Hooked up "Daughter-in-law, what happened to the fourth daughter-in-law just now? Her eyes were so scary, as if she wanted to eat someone." Xiao Liu asked as she came in. "She''s probably in a bad mood. Second Aunt doesn''t need to worry about her." Song Jin''s eyes fell on the plate of Dingshi cakes held by Mrs. Liu. Xiao Liu followed her gaze and immediately handed the plate to her, "Someone brought it as a gift. It tastes better than the sesame candy I had before. I''ll bring you a few pieces to try." "Thank you, second aunt." Song Jin accepted this sentiment. He lifted a piece to his lips and took a bite. It has a sweet flavor and soft texture. This is a famous snack in Huizhou Prefecture, and the best of the Ma Su Candies can be called "Dingshi Su". Such exquisite pastries are usually relatively expensive, and ordinary people rarely buy them. Xiao Liu has never even seen them before, not to mention eating them. Song Jin ate one piece, then picked up another piece and stuffed it into Xiao Liu''s hand, and said with a crooked look, "Second aunt, eat with me." "That''s okay." Xiao Liu was very happy. He found a chair and sat down. While eating pastries, I chatted with Song Jin about gossip. So most of the pastries that were brought went into Xiao Liu''s stomach, and then she left happily. How could Song Jin not know about Xiao Liu''s little thoughts, but he just condoned them without exposing them. Although it was said that Qin Mingsong won the exam today, Qin Mingsong was not at home, so Qin Chi was the one supporting the scene. Qin Chi is also a scholar after all. It would not be considered as neglecting the guests if he came forward. However, most of the visitors would sit for a while, drink a cup of tea and then get up and leave. No one would stay for a long time without being interested. Who doesn''t know that the Qin family will be busy today. If you stay any longer, you won''t be flattering, but you will become annoying. With Qin Chi in charge at home, he would make the decision to accept ordinary gifts, such as cakes, food, cloth, etc. When it comes to valuable items, such as money given by some squires, fields and real estate in Zhuangzi, etc., things that are easy to be talked about, Qin Chi will make the decision and let the person who gave the gift take it back. The excitement in the Qin family didn''t stop until dark. The whole family was happy, but they were also really tired, but they all gathered in the main room to count the gifts. Erlang also has a gift list in his hand. He clearly remembers which house sent something, what he gave, etc. Song Jin took a cursory look at the things on it and discovered the problem at a glance. In the previous life, the Qin family became rich overnight, and they would not refuse gifts from outsiders. Because of this, Qin Mingsong later became a Jinshi, and the candidate period for the conferment lasted two years, and he had to spend money to find a job. The things on the list this time are all ordinary, the value will not exceed five hundred taels, and they are all ordinary food. Song Jin raised his head and looked at Qin Chi. It was him who changed these things, which gave Qin Mingsong an advantage! But Old Liu looked unhappy. Like someone provoked her. Qin Chi''s nose was not her nose, and her eyes were not eyes. As long as Old Liu didn''t say anything in public, Qin Chi completely ignored her. "Second uncle, third uncle, pick out half of the things and send them to the clan..." As soon as Qin Chi finished speaking, Old Liu interrupted loudly: "No sending!" Mrs. Liu finally couldn''t help complaining, "What are you going to give? No one is allowed to give it away without my consent!" She must have held back enough during the day, so Old Liu almost pointed at Qin Chi and cursed, "You returned so much money and property deeds without even asking me, do you still care about me, an elder!" " "Shut up! Dalang said this was for the sake of Si''er''s future." Old Qin glared at her. Seeing Old Liu still looked dissatisfied. What else does Old Man Qin want to say. Song Jin stood up and stood up for Qin Chi, "Do you think you got the money for nothing? After you take it, if someone comes to ask for something, will you help or not?" "Just help me, what''s the problem?" Old Liu replied matter-of-factly. Song Jin asked again: "You also help with committing crimes?" "It''s all right if you don''t help. If you don''t take it, you won''t get it for nothing." Old Liu still felt sorry for those belongings. These words left Song Jin speechless. Is the gift-giver being taken advantage of? "I told you to shut up!" Old Qin''s face turned blue with anger, and he hit Old Liu with a cup of tea, burning him so hard that Old Liu screamed. Do you think he wouldn''t be moved after seeing such a large amount of property? But Dalang resolutely stepped back and explained the power of it to him in private. He was also frightened into a cold sweat. He almost ruined Qin Mingsong''s future. Qin Chi spoke up to explain at the right time, his voice was gentle and he said calmly: "Grandma, how will outsiders view my uncle if he accepts heavy gifts before he becomes an official? It''s a good thing that no one will come to investigate in the future. Once investigated, it will become a handle. I am doing this for the sake of my uncle''s future, and I also hope that Grandma Understandable. Old Liu, this idiot! Maybe it will bring trouble to his son in the future. Old Qin felt fierce and glared at Old Liu and said fiercely: "If you dare to ruin the future of the fourth son and prevent him from becoming an official, I will kill you!" Old Mrs. Liu was immediately startled, her hands became cold, and she quickly shrank her neck and said, "I, I''m just saying, no, I won''t cause trouble to Si''er!" After spending decades together, the person who knows Old Man Qin best is undoubtedly Old Liu. What Old Man Qin just said is true! She was really scared now. Old Man Qin warned again: "It''s best to remember what you said." "Remember, remember!" Old Liu replied in a trembling voice. Now I no longer have the heart to worry about that money. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin couldn''t help but sigh in his heart when he saw Mr. Liu trying hard to suppress his fear. Sure enough, one thing comes down to another. In the next few days, almost all relatives of the Qin family came. The Qin family is very lively every day. Qin Chi fell ill at the right time. He simply took Song Jin and his children to stay temporarily in a medicine shop, telling the public that he was there to recuperate. Unexpectedly, the next day, Li was also sent over by Boss Qin. So the whole family moved to the pharmacy. Old Qin and Old Liu waited for Qin Mingsong''s return every day. Patriarch Qin is also waiting for people to come back and open the ancestral hall. Just wait and wait. Less than half a month has passed, and the things to worship the ancestors are all ready. Qin Mingsong has yet to return. Qin Chi, who lives in the medicine shop, can no longer bear to go back to Qinjiagou. It''s a good place here. They are all members of his family. Food, clothing, housing and transportation are optional. The two little babies are also taken care of, so the mother and wife don''t have to work too hard. "Madam, what do you think of me finding a way to separate the family?" Qin Chi suddenly asked on a whim. After he said this, he knew that separating the family was unrealistic. Song Jin whispered: "This is unfair to the second and third families. Once the families are separated, the two families will have to work every year." "Then we divide families but not households?" "We are a small independent family." Song Jin wanted to persuade Qin Chi not to bother. As long as the two old guys feel that they have become a burden to Qin Mingsong, they will naturally take the initiative to separate the family. If Qin Chi proposed first, he would be blamed and affect his reputation. Qin Chi said no more. After a long silence, Qin Chi asked again: "Madam, do you know why my uncle hasn''t returned yet?" "Any news about Mr. Xian?" Song Jin asked back. Qin Chi took some time off and said, "After attending the Luming Banquet, my uncle returned to Fucheng and prepared a thank-you gift for every master who taught him, which won him a lot of praise." Qin Mingsong was thorough in his etiquette. Because after students pass the examination, they will no longer stay in the academy to study. No one can comment on Qin Mingsong''s move. If it was just like this, he wouldn''t have been delayed in returning. Song Jin knew that something must have happened. She diligently got up and poured a cup of tea for Qin Chi and handed it to him. "My husband continues." After taking the tea and taking a sip, Qin Chi was satisfied and continued: "When my uncle went to Bai Mansion to visit Bai Daru, something happened. Ahem, and then the next day Bai Cuiwei got an emergency and was sent outside the city. Zhuangzi recuperates." "The recuperation was fake, the two of them hooked up again..." Song Jin suddenly paused. This is too vulgar to say. You should use another word. Song Jin frowned again and said, "Did the good deed between the two of them come to light? In order to cover up the scandal, the White House had to send the person to Zhuangzi first?" "My wife, you are looking down on your uncle." Qin Chi took another sip of tea, which was very appetizing. You can tell as soon as you hear it, there is obviously a story in it? Chapter 136 Do you regret it now? Chapter 136 Do you regret it now? Song Jin learned the truth from Qin Chi. Qin Mingsong went to Bai Mansion to visit Bai Daru. After drinking a few more drinks, he became drunk and stayed overnight in Bai Mansion. In the middle of the night, the servants saw him and Bai Cuiwei lying together in disheveled clothes. Bai Cuiwei admitted that she took the initiative to get into Qin Mingsong''s room, and threatened that she would never marry anyone other than Qin Mingsong. Bai Daru almost fainted with anger. Qin Mingsong was drunk at the time, and people wanted to accuse him but there was no evidence. This matter has become a matter of principle, it is the Baifu who is in the wrong, and it is also the Baifu who suffers the loss. Qin Mingsong felt helpless when he woke up and expressed his willingness to marry Bai Cuiwei as his equal wife. But Bai Cuiwei was not happy. An ordinary wife is also a concubine, she should not be a concubine. Qin Mingsong, however, insisted on not divorcing his wife for the first time. Bai Daru had no shame in forcing Qin Mingsong to divorce his wife and marry another, so he could only send Bai Cuiwei away on the grounds of illness to avoid spreading the news and ruining the reputation of Bai Mansion. "As a bystander, I don''t know how to comment on Bai Cuiwei." Song Jin sighed with emotion. Qin Chi glanced at her sideways, "She''s just a stupid woman, what''s there to say about her?" "You call people stupid, but they are still happy with it." In her previous life, Bai Cuiwei gave up everything for love and was so moved by herself. Is this perhaps a common problem among talented women? But in this life, Song Jin finally saw it clearly. Qin Mingsong''s so-called sweetheart is a joke. No one loves this kind of person. The person he loves most is himself. You must know that if he really loved Chong Bai Cuiwei, he would not let her follow him like this without any name or status. The two of them stopped talking about Qin Mingsong. The only good news during this period is probably that He Lianpu''s condition has stabilized again. Qin Chi sent all the high-quality medicinal materials he collected, especially the various medicinal materials concocted by Song Jin himself, to his uncle. Not to mention, it really comes in handy. "Auntie!" The boy''s shouts of joy echoed into the house. Song Jin was confused, "Is this Sanlang here?" "When you come to the medicine shop at this time, there is probably something going on." Qin Chi guessed it accurately. Saburo ran over, sweating profusely. Mrs. Li handed him a bowl of herbal tea. Sanlang picked up the gulu gulu and drank it in one gulp. He licked his lips and said, "My uncle is back. Grandpa asked me to call my eldest brother home." "He will come back as soon as he comes back. Do you still want my son to greet him?" Mr. Li also has a temper. The person who won the exam was Qin Mingsong. He did not go home to socialize, but ended up making her son sick from exhaustion. Sanlang chuckled and said, "The old patriarch is here too. He should be discussing the opening of the ancestral hall." Just at this time. Sanlang saw Qin Chi walking out of the house wearing a white coat. He immediately walked over, raised his little face and asked: "Brother, are you feeling better?" "Much better, cough." Qin Chi covered his mouth with his hand and coughed twice. The thin body looks a bit sickly, but it is not as perfect as before. You must have been having a great time these past few days, and your face is a little rosy? It''s useless for Li to complain. Old Qin spoke, and as a junior, he could only obey. Qin Chi asked people to pack things. The whole family rode in the pharmacy''s carriage, and hitched a ride with the clever little Qin Sanlang, and returned in the evening. The carriage approaches the village. Beside the ancient road at the entrance of the village. A tall scholar stood under the setting sun. He was wearing a green shirt, with long sleeves fluttering in the wind. The shirt was embroidered with dark patterns, showing elegance in its simplicity. There is a jade belt tied around the waist, giving off a faint bookish air. In fact, his attire is not gorgeous, but his calmness and aura of nobility make people dare not approach him easily. He seems to be used to being alone, and he seems to be waiting for something. His cold and aloof temperament makes people look away and out of reach. Like a lonely pine on a high mountain, it stands quietly in the depths of time, uncontested by the world, but it is difficult to ignore the charm of its existence. An unmarried woman in the village was disturbed by a pool of spring water. But it was only from a distance, and I didn''t dare to get close to him because of my inferiority complex. When the carriage comes back. Song Jin happened to see this scene through the car window. This scene is so familiar, I dont know how many times I have seen it in my previous life. There is no denying that Qin Mingsong has outstanding looks. Every time he makes such a gesture, countless women are attracted to him. Now that he has gained fame and fame, his radiance is even brighter. Its no wonder that Bai Cuiwei also wanted to rush into the flames because of this. Qin Chi paid attention to Song Jin''s little movements and naturally saw the situation outside the window. I thought Song Jin would be amazing. Unexpectedly, she lowered the curtain with disgust in her eyes. I have to say that Qin Chi was pleased, but he still said very hard, "My brother-in-law is very good, and he has a good skin. You chose to marry me, do you regret it now?" "I regret it." Song Jin looked sideways at Qin Chi, "I regret not sewing up your mouth earlier." "Pfft." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! This smile is not Qin Chi''s, but Li''s. Li Shi laughed and scolded: "Jin''er, don''t take this brat''s word for granted. He is getting an advantage and acting like a good boy." "that is!" Song Jin gave Qin Chi a sideways look, "If you don''t marry me, you will marry Xiu''er..." The eyes are flowing, and the charm is natural. It almost took away Qin Chi''s soul. But when he heard that he wanted to marry that crazy woman Song Xiu, Qin Chi felt a chill in his heart. He said with a correct attitude: "My lady is right, marriage is destined by fate, it is for you and me to be together." Qin Chi grasped Song Jin''s hand tightly. It wasn''t until the carriage stopped in front of the Qin Family Courtyard that he let go of her hand and gathered up the coat she was wearing. Make a sick look. Let Song Jin help him get out of the car. Song Jin understands this operation, but he is just pretending to be sick and avoiding it. As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw Song Xiu holding a shelf, and old Liu with a dark face. Old Man Qin frowned, "Da Lang, you have been sick for several days, why haven''t you gotten better?" "Doctor Jing just told me to take good care of him." Qin Chi sighed slightly. To others, this is the same as saying that the disease is hopeless. Old Man Qin''s heart skipped a beat, "Then you go back to your room and have a rest. You can wait until the clan opens the ancestral hall to show your face." "Grandsons listen to their grandfathers." Qin Chi looked around deliberately, "Where is this uncle?" "I said I''m going out for a walk and I''ll be back soon." Old man Qin just finished speaking. A child hurried over outside and muttered something in front of Saburo. Saburo turned around and ran into the yard. "Grandma! Auntie! Oh no, no, no, no, no, my uncle was stopped by the village chief''s sister Dong''er again!" As soon as these words came out, it was like a frying pan. Old Mrs. Liu dropped her things and ran out, cursing as she trotted: "Shameless little bitch, my son is a civil servant, is this what she can imagine?" "I''m going to help my mother!" Xiao Liu followed to watch the fun. On the contrary, Song Xiu did not move, still sitting there expressionless. Song Jin was very surprised. What kind of stimulation was this? Without Song Xiu, the excitement outside would have been reduced by half. "Auntie, why don''t you go?" Sanlang scratched his head in confusion. Song Xiu raised her chin arrogantly, "I am already a noble lady, how can I behave like a country girl? Wasn''t it that I was promoting her in the past?" Hearing this, Song Jin fell silent. She overestimated Song Xiu and thought she finally saw Qin Mingsong''s face clearly. PS: Family please vote~ (End of this chapter) Chapter 137 Shameless Chapter 137 Shameless The big house moved the carriage''s things back to the house. The twins of dragon and phoenix are also properly placed. Mrs. Liu came back in high spirits, with Qin Mingsong in slightly disheveled clothes following behind her. The people in the village had long passed their most excited period regarding his success. Therefore, early the next morning, the Qin patriarch and several respected elders opened the ancestral hall, placed offerings as usual to comfort their ancestors, and recorded Qin Mingsong''s success in the family tree. Qin Chi also went to the ancestral hall. Women are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall. Therefore, Song Jin did not go there and stayed at home with his two children. The rest of the family went to the ancestral hall to watch the fun. Originally, the clan was going to hold a banquet, but after waiting for these days, Qin Mingsong did not come back, and the clan leader calmed down. Not every household is rich, so we can save money if we can. Qin Mingsong paid for it, cooked several large pots of mixed porridge, and gave the people in the village a full meal for free, which won praise from many tribesmen. Night falls. The family smelled a medicinal smell when they got home. The smell of medicine came from the kitchen, and he happened to see Song Jin coming out of the kitchen with a bowl of dark medicine in his hand, and wisps of hot steam wafting up. "Who is sick?" Qin Mingsong asked. Qin Chi coughed lightly and said, "Uncle, it''s me. I haven''t been feeling well these days." "Is everything okay?" Qin Mingsong said with concern. Qin Chi said with a wry smile: "It''s an old problem, it''s nothing serious." Qin Mingsong once again expressed his identity as an elder and expressed some concern. Qin Chi listened patiently. It wasn''t until Song Jin asked him to go back to the house to drink medicine that he resigned to Qin Mingsong with a look of helplessness. Qin Mingsong''s dark eyes stared at Qin Chi''s back. If you didn''t pay attention before, you wouldn''t know. If you pay attention, you will notice that this nephew is not simple. Not to mention his speech and behavior are impeccable, and the big house never seems to be short of money. Without the support of his family, Qin Chi would still be as good as him. Even his father, who had supported him in the past, had doubts about him, and the attitude of his family towards him did not change much because he won the election. The origin of all this is because of Qin Chi. Qin Mingsong returned to his room. Song Xiulian walked over and gently took off his shirt, "Husband, do you want to take a bath?" "you" Qin Mingsong looked at Song Xiu. Wearing a lake green light gauze dress, she is as soft as catkins, her long hair is draped over her shoulders like a waterfall, and a few strands of filaments casually fall down the side of her fair neck, highlighting her petite face. Song Xiu, who is not crazy, is also a beauty. If you look closely, you will find that her eyebrows are two or three points similar to Song Jin''s. It makes people look at it one more time, and one more time. This change is quite big, not to mention the clothes and behavior, even the temperament seems to have changed. Only her attitude toward him was up and down, very weird. After **** Qin Mingsong, Song Xiu asked softly: "When do you plan to move to the county town? How can I still live in this place? I have to have servants to take care of me." "I like Qinjiagou''s beautiful mountains and clear waters. I don''t plan to move to the county for the time being." Qin Mingsong''s answer was very perfunctory. Song Xiu smiled a little horribly, "Is that so? Or do you want to trap me alone in Qinjiagou, while you and your mistress sleep together outside?" He threw the clothes in his hand angrily into Qin Mingsong''s face. Song Xiu didn''t give Qin Mingsong any face at all, "Qin Mingsong, I originally wanted to save some face for you, but you are so shameless. Do you really think that no one knows what you did in Fucheng? Do you want me to go out and help you?" Preach?" Song Xiu''s sudden outburst caught Qin Mingsong off guard. What shocked Qin Mingsong even more was that Song Xiu seemed to know his whereabouts very well. The person is obviously in Qinjiagou. How did you learn about him? This had to make Qin Mingsong doubt the family behind the two sisters. In fact, it''s not a wrong guess. The person behind Song Xiu''s instigation was Song Jin. Regarding Qin Mingsong and Bai Cuiwei, Song Jin was happy to inform Song Xiu, but still in a mocking manner. It''s not that Song Xiu was so excited! Being able to endure it for a day before having an attack is pretty good. "Bang!" There was a loud noise from the four houses. "Qin Mingsong! If you dare to raise a woman outside, I will never be done with you!" Song Xiu''s angry voice came out. other side. Qin Chi blew on the medicine, but didn''t take a sip. Hearing the noise coming from the fourth room, he couldn''t help but raise his handsome eyebrows, "Madam, your concubine is having trouble with my uncle again, why don''t you go and take a look?" "Mr., please drink the medicine quickly. It will get cold if you keep it for a while." Song Jin looked at him with a half-smile, "This is the tonic I specially asked Doctor Jing to prescribe for you." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "I''m not sick, and I don''t need any supplements." Qin Chi still wanted to struggle, but in the end, under Song Jin''s gaze, he could only sigh and frown in pain. Song Jin handed him a piece of candied fruit. Qin Chi held some candied fruit in his mouth, his brows relaxed a lot, and he listened to the noise in the fourth room. There was a lot of commotion, "The two old men have passed, and I will go and comfort my uncle." "Together?" Song Jin also wanted to watch the excitement. He took a coat and put it on him personally. Perhaps he was too close, and Song Jin could still smell the clean cold fragrance on his body. Qin Chi suddenly lowered his head and kissed Song Jin''s forehead. Very light, like a dragonfly touching water. Ignoring the dull Song Jin, Qin Chi lightly gathered his clothes with a smile on his face and walked out slowly. Song Jin came to his senses and quickly followed. Not to keep up with Qin Chi, but to watch the fun. When I passed by, I saw that the house was in a mess. Qin Mingsong''s face was scratched with several marks by Song Xiu''s nails. Song Xiu''s hair was messy and her clothes were untidy. Originally, the old Liu family came here and wanted to fight Song embroidery. Song Xiu went crazy and ignored him, angrily pushing Old Liu who was rushing towards him, but Qin Mingsong reacted quickly and helped Old Liu from falling down. "What do you want from a whole family that bullies me?" Song Xiu really didn''t want to pretend anymore. This family was all shameless people. Old Qin had a dark face and looked at Song Xiu with a gloomy look, "You should know how important a man''s face is. How can Si''er go out like this? If you want to ruin his future, you''d better make peace with him earlier. If you leave, my Qin family cant afford a wife like you. This old guy is on Qin Mingsong''s side after all. Song Xiu''s face twisted for a moment, "Then what you want your son to do is human affairs." Song Xiu turned around and looked at Qin Mingsong resentfully. Just when Song Xiu was about to open his mouth and reveal something, "I''ve been acting like a gentleman all day long, do this..." Qin Mingsong suddenly went up and covered her mouth, "Song Xiu, enough trouble! That''s it for today. If you still want to live with me, just shut up." Hearing this, Song Xiu showed hesitation and struggle. Finally chose silence. Old Man Qin originally wanted to say something, but when he saw Qin Mingsong''s attitude, he realized that he was most likely being irrational and simply drove the others back to their rooms. Song Jin looked at Song Xiu who was helpless. Afraid that Song Xiu wouldn''t make a fuss, Song Jin said, "Qin family, there must be a certain level in everything, and don''t bully others too much." Old man Qin''s turbid eyes flashed, and he immediately smiled and said: "What can you say about a man''s wife? It''s common for husband and wife to have quarrels." "Maybe." When turning around, Song Jin glanced at Song Xiu with cold eyes. Song Xiu''s eyes suddenly burst into surprise. Probably he didn''t expect that Song Jin would suddenly make the decision for him. At this moment, Song Xiu gained confidence again. It''s still very satisfying and I feel like I can make a big fuss a few more times! PS: Please vote~will update more if you vote. (End of this chapter) Chapter 138 The lady wants to know the reason Chapter 138 The lady wants to know the reason Song Jin stepped out of the threshold with a condensed expression. She didn''t want to recall things from her past life, but those scenes would pop up in her mind from time to time. For example, in her previous life, Qin Mingsong passed the imperial examination. Logically speaking, it was normal for him to become a civil servant and move to the city. No one has to live in the countryside and live a hard life. What''s the result? Qin Mingsong insisted on saying that he liked Qinjiagou. He said that Qinjiagou has beautiful mountains and clear waters, and that it is close to Huangshan Mountain and is a geomantic treasure. He also brought up a fortune teller who said that as long as he lived in Qinjiagou, he would sooner or later become a Jinshi in high school. But instead of moving to the city, let''s build a more stylish yard and add one or two servants'' headquarters. But there was nothing. Qin Mingsong said that he would save money and use it on the pretext that he would go to Beijing to take the imperial examination in the future. In fact, he and his wife lived in the city, and the surrounding neighbors thought Bai Cuiwei was his wife. Song Jin only found out this matter many years later. At that time, Song Jin only hated herself for being so stupid. But at the same time, she also resented Qin Mingsong, so she followed their wishes and did not compete with Bai Cuiwei for a man. The current situation is that Qin Mingsong probably has the same idea again, and as expected, Song Xiu is offended. Song Xiu is not as good-tempered as she used to be. Qin Mingsong wanted to leave her and go to the city to enjoy happiness, but that was simply a foolish dream. Song Jin hasn''t returned to the house yet. Song Xiu was one step ahead of Qin Chi, got into their house, and closed the door first to block Qin Chi from outside. Qin Chi stood silent in front of the door. Song Jin looked at Song Xiu coldly, "What are you doing here?" "Sister, it''s just like what you said. He said he didn''t want to move to the city." Song Xiu was enjoying herself last night, but when Song Jin went to the kitchen to fetch hot water, she found an opportunity to show off in front of Song Jin. Unexpectedly, he was ridiculed by Song Jin again. He said that Qin Mingsong was already in love with Bai Cuiwei and would never take her to the county seat. At that time, Song Xiu was almost furious. He said he didn''t believe it, but in fact he suspected Qin Mingsong. Not only did he find a chance to test it out, but he actually matched what Song Jin had guessed! How could this calm her down? She went to great lengths to change her marriage just because she wanted to live a good life. Song Xiu would never allow the situation Song Jin said to happen. Song Jin looked at Song Xiu, who was shameless and skinless, and didn''t know how to describe her. No shame at all. In other words, even dignity has been discarded. The experience of her previous life had already changed Song Xiu beyond recognition. "Song Xiu, before you ran away with the man, I didn''t leave Qinjiagou." Song Jin whispered in Song Xiu''s ear, "You don''t think I like to endure hardship, do you?" Song Xiu''s pupils suddenly shrank. Some forgotten memories, or things that she had deliberately ignored, gradually came to mind. For a moment, she felt her hands and feet were cold, "No! I won''t live as cowardly as you!" "You''re right. I was indeed a coward at that time, so I was watching to see if you would live a more cowardly life than me." When Song Jin said these words, Song Xiu was greatly stimulated. He originally came here to please Song Jin, but suddenly anger welled up in his heart. He threw his original intention into the background and said bitterly: "Song Jin, just wait for me, I will definitely live a better life than you!" Leave these harsh words behind. Song Xiu turned around and opened the door. When he happened to see Qin Chi standing at the door, Song Xiuqian glared at him angrily, "What are you looking at, sick man? Get away!" Song Xiu reached out to push Qin Chi away. Qin Chi stepped aside to make way before her. "You''re smart." Song Xiu snorted coldly, walked past Qin Chi and left. Qin Chi looked back at Song Jin, his eyelashes trembling, and he walked into the room and asked softly: "Did you instigate Song Xiu to make trouble with my uncle?" "I''ll tell her the truth and don''t let her be deceived by my uncle." Song Jin smiled sweetly. Qin Chi had nothing to say. My wife is a kind-hearted person. Didn''t he already know that? After Qin Chi entered the house, Song Jin went over and closed the door. After thinking about it, he said, "Are the people who protect our husband in Qinjiagou?" "Yes, around Qinjiagou." Qin Chi walked to the bookshelf and sat down. Song Jin diligently poured a cup of tea and handed it to Qin Chi. Even though she was doing such a flattering move, she did it with ease and grace. Qin Chi took the tea bowl and took a sip, "Okay, if you have any questions, please give me your instructions directly." "It''s not a big deal. I just want them to take care of Xiu''er a little when they are alone with Qin Mingsong to prevent her from dying unexpectedly." As soon as Song Jin said these words, Qin Chi''s hand holding the tea bowl paused. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi raised his eyes and stared at Song Jin, "Madam, are you serious?" Its essential to be on guard against others. Song Jin seemed to be playing riddles with Qin Chi. But Qin Chi heard her hidden meaning, which was that he suspected that Qin Ming would kill Song Xiu by jumping over the wall. Qin Chi agreed to this small matter. Then as soon as he agreed, he saw his wife turning around neatly. Qin Chi suddenly felt that the tea was no longer fragrant. According to Qin Chi''s understanding of Qin Mingsong. Qin Mingsong cherishes feathers very much and would not kill anyone easily. However, if Song Xiu hinders his future, he may not kill people, but he can also use other means to make Song Xiu leave. Don''t open Qinjia ditch. Whatever he could think of, Song Jin could naturally think of it too. Song Jin asked Qin Chi to protect Song Xiu as a precaution. The next four rooms were peaceful. Qin Mingsong used the excuse of illness and cold to stay in the house and refused to see guests. Song Xiu rarely left the house. With Qin Mingsong at home, Mr. Liu would not force Song Xiu to work. It wasn''t until the wound on his face healed that Qin Mingsong stepped out of the room. Song Xiu''s attitude changed quickly. Every time he looked at Qin Mingsong, he was extremely shy, as if he was possessed. What happened to the two of them these days? Song Jin''s curious eyes looked at Qin Chi, who was still pretending to be sick. "Madam, you want to know the reason?" Qin Chi slowly put down the book in his hand, "I think it''s better to do it than to say it. What do you think, lady?" Song Jin was confused when he heard this. Qin Chi used practical actions to prove what Qin Mingsong did to Song Xiu. The next day, Song Jin got up stroking her sore waist. She had always been gentle and tolerant, but she couldn''t help but cursed Qin Chi as a beast. She didn''t stop all night, and even a tough guy couldn''t bear it. She never thought that that idiot Song Xiu would be "sleeped" by Qin Mingsong. Song Jin was holding the washbasin and was about to go to the well to fetch water. Song Xiu came over in a coquettish manner and asked, "Sister, what''s wrong with you? You look like you''re in a bad mood, with a dark face. You couldn''t have had a quarrel with Qin Chi last night." Song Jin glanced at him and said, "You forgive him so quickly?" "My husband said it was all false. You deliberately instigated it. The purpose was to make us husband and wife discord." Song Xiu saw through her look. Song Jin said pitifully: "Just think that I am lying. In fact, it doesn''t matter whether it is true or false. As long as you live well, no matter how good the women outside are, they will never be able to surpass you." This persuasive tone made Song Xiu angry to death! Chapter 139 A poor scholar and a rich man Chapter 139 A poor scholar makes a rich man "Don''t try to sow discord!" Song Xiu suddenly said arrogantly, "My husband has already said that he will take me with him when he moves to the city, and he also said that he will take me to see the house tomorrow." "Are you really going to move to the city? When? The whole family is going to move there. From now on, everyone can enjoy the blessings with my uncle." Song Jin''s main theme is that if the diaphragm is not dead, you can continue to diaphragm. Before Song Xiu could say anything else, Song Jin shouted loudly to Mr. Liu who was cleaning up in the woodshed: "Second aunt! My uncle said that he wants the family to move to the city. You have worked hard for more than ten years and you have finally seen the rewards." Xiao Liu was suddenly surprised and asked: "Are you really going to move your family to the city to enjoy the happiness?" "Of course, my brother-in-law is now a master of education, and the whole family supports him in studying. How can he go to enjoy the blessings on his own and leave his family members to work in the countryside?" Song Jin''s tall hats were put on Qin Mingsong''s head one after another. Song Xiu was angry and guilty. But he didn''t dare to say anything and hurriedly ran back to the house. Qin Mingsong, who was sitting in the room, also heard a few words. When he saw Song Xiu come in, he asked impatiently: "What good thing have you done again? Will your sister think that I am taking the whole family to the city?" "All I said was that you would take me to the city." Song Xiu pouted and was very unhappy, "Unexpectedly, sister misunderstood and said that you wanted to take the whole family with you. I obviously only said that you would take me." "This family has not yet been divided. If I settle down in the city, how can I ignore my parents and brothers?" Qin Mingsong knew that this matter could be big or small. But with Song Jin making such a fuss about this matter, the family might not be able to compromise so easily. Sure enough, I heard old Mr. Liu scolding people outside, "What are you yelling about? My slave Yangzi still wants to be a master and a young mistress and enjoy the blessings. How can I not be too beautiful to kill you?" "Mom! My brother-in-law is already a master of education. Do we still have to work hard in the fields? From now on, I will ask my brother-in-law to find an easy job for my men, and then find a better academy for Erlang and Sanlang. In another month Just give me a month or two. I heard that wealthy families in the city have pocket money every month. What Little Liu said made Old Liu''s face turn green with anger. Song Jin was very happy after hearing this, "Second Aunt is right. Rich families do give monthly silver to their families. When I was at home, I got twenty taels every month." "Wow! Then I want less. No, I have to pay more." Xiao Liu put her hands on her hips and looked like she was about to fight. Old Mrs. Liu picked up the broom and was about to hit Little Mrs. Liu, "I''m giving you the face to plot against my mother. The fourth son has just won the imperial examination, where will the money come from to support you." "Grandma, a poor scholar is a rich man." The voice that suddenly spoke was not Song Jin, but Qin Chi who came out of the house, "When my uncle passes the exam, he will not be short of money in the future. This grandma can rest assured." There are some ways for scholars to make money. Becoming a successful person will only increase your chances of success. This commotion was so early in the morning that it naturally alarmed other people. Autumn is here, and its harvest time. People from the other three rooms of the Qin family gathered in the main room. Furthermore, Old Man Qin asked someone to call Qin Mingsong out, "Si''er, what did you say?" "Mom and Dad, I don''t have to rely on my family anymore. I''ll write to my classmates in a few days and ask if there is any easier work and introduce it to some of my brothers." Qin Mingsong''s attitude was very upright and he had no intention of shirking responsibility. "My family supported me in studying. If I succeed, I will never forget you." This is beautifully said. But none of the actual benefits have been lost. Then Qin Mingsong made it clear, "I''m not planning to join the officialdom so early. I want to take the examination next year, so I don''t plan to move to the city. However, it''s time to repair the house at home." This means not moving to the city. I just decided to build another big house in Qinjiagou, and it must be impressive. Qin Mingsong looked around and found that no one was talking. He added, "I will pay for the repair of the house." "Oh, my uncle is still very generous." Suddenly, Xiao Liu was happy and praised, "How great is Xiu? My eldest daughter and Erlang are about to meet each other. Thanks to my uncle, they are bound to have a good marriage." This can indeed raise the threshold for blind dates. . The others did not speak. Song Jin was noncommittal about this. If she really wanted to build a big house, she would probably build a small house with Qin Chi. After all, they were independent, so what would happen if they built more small houses? At the same time, leave a room in the house for Boss Qin and Mrs. Li. This plan is to wait until the people disperse. Song Jin went back to the room to talk to Qin Chi. Qin Chi responded directly and said, "Isn''t there a lot to do in the pharmacy? I happen to be recovering at home, so leave this matter to me." "Well, thank you for your service." Song Jin replied with a smile. Qin Chi put a big hand on her slender waist, "Madam, are you still sore?" Song Jin avoided it without leaving any trace, and then walked out as if running away, "I''m going to see the children." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Ha!" Qin Chi raised his lips and smiled. Since Qin Mingsong said he wanted to build a house, he couldn''t just talk about it. After discussing it with Old Man Qin, he went to buy an open space at the entrance of the village and went to the town to find a craftsman to build the house. After becoming a candidate, Qin Mingsong still had to spend the money. Not to mention that building a house can silence the mouths of family members, but it can also be considered as a way to improve people''s appearance. Song Xiu stared at Qin Mingsong every day. Qin Mingsong stayed at home. In addition to occasionally visiting his teachers who had taught him before, or entertaining classmates who came to visit him, most of the time he talked about poetry, classics, and knowledge. Song Xiu didn''t notice anything unusual, so he threw Song Jin''s words behind him. This season is the busiest time of the year for the medicine shop, and Song Jin doesn''t have much time to pay attention to Qin Mingsong and Song Xiu. When Qin Chi saw the craftsmen hired by his family starting to lay the foundation, he called Boss Qin to help. He then allocated a piece of land in the village and built a small house in the same way. "Why does the elder build another yard? The house built by the fourth brother is enough for our whole family to live in." Boss Qin was very puzzled. Qin Chi said with a smile: "Dad, this is my wife and I''s small home. It doesn''t need to be big. It can be big enough for our big house and the whole family to live in. But the courtyard wall must be high." Then Qin Chi gave Boss Qin a sum of money to repair the house. Boss Qin hurriedly went to do something. Everyone is busy with their own things. People who stay at home are very busy. Just like old Liu. Recently, Mr. Liu has become increasingly dissatisfied with Dafang. She didn''t know where she learned that the medicine Qin Chi took cost five taels of silver per dose, and she was so angry that her heart, liver, and lungs ached. In addition, Mrs. Li did not pay any more money to the public house, so Mrs. Liu would often criticize Sang and Huai. "I don''t have enough money to spend on grandma, why is she distressed?" Sanlang leaned in front of Qin Chi and whispered, "Brother, should we go to the medicine shop to find my sister-in-law?" "What are you doing to your sister-in-law?" Qin Chi stopped writing and looked at him. Sanlang rarely became shy, "I just don''t want to study. I want to join my sister-in-law in a medicine shop and work as a medicine boy. It would be best if I could learn how to prepare medicinal materials. I heard that being a master can earn seven or eight taels of silver a month." "This depends on talent." Qin Chi didn''t agree at all. Sanlang muttered, "How would you know that I don''t have talent if I haven''t tried it? Anyway, I don''t have any talent for reading." "I''m just asking for you. I can''t guarantee that your sister-in-law will agree." "Okay! I just said that the eldest brother is the most capable, more capable than the uncle." The last time Saburo went to the medicine shop, he had been thinking about it until now. Rather than wasting time studying in school, Saburo wanted to learn a craft. Chapter 140 Get a head start Chapter 140: Taking the Head Start Song Jin came back in the evening. Hearing Qin Chi say that Sanlang wanted to learn the art of concocting medicinal materials, Song Jin was silent for a long time. "I''m not asking you to accept it, just do it according to your own wishes." Qin Chi was just a messenger, but he knew that if he spoke, Song Jin would probably agree. Song Jin''s silence is not an embarrassment. Instead, he thought of the path that Saburo took in his previous life, and now he came to learn the art of cooking. Will Mr. Qin, who was once so prosperous, reappear in this life? Song Jin said conscientiously: "My lord, if you learn how to prepare medicinal materials, you will have a great future and you will be a master. You will earn one hundred and eighty taels a year. Are you sure you want him to learn?" "The child has not yet determined, let him go and have a look first, and gain insights." Qin Chi didn''t think that Sanlang''s out-of-the-box temperament was suitable for him to learn this craft, but when the child spoke, as an elder brother, he had to satisfy his requirements. At worst, if you dont want to learn, dont learn. Song Jin also noticed his attitude, "Okay, then I''ll take him to the pharmacy tomorrow." The two had just finished talking. Erlang''s voice came from outside, "Brother, I want you to go to the main room to talk." "Got it." Qin Chi responded. Song Jin asked strangely: "Is he looking for something to do with you?" "They should be asking us about building another house." Qin Chi had already guessed that this would happen. Song Jin said casually: "Just put the blame on me. Grandpa doesn''t dare to do anything to me." In the previous life, when he first arrived at the Qin family, he acted too weak and was picked on. In this life, when she becomes stronger, people become afraid of her. Qin Chi nodded and went out. Song Jin sat at the table, took out the account book and started to check. Not many things happened at Jifang Pharmacy this year, and the income was very stable. At this time, he was not in a hurry to continue to expand. Qin Chi went to the main room. All the adults in the family are here. Not surprisingly, he asked Qin Chi why he wanted to build another house. "Does Dalang have a problem with my uncle?" Qin Mingsong looked a little sad and helpless, "In the past, my brother-in-law only thought about studying and gaining fame, so he would inevitably neglect his family, but he won''t do that anymore." "What did uncle say?" Qin Chi responded vaguely, "Didn''t my grandfather allow my wife and I to have a small family? My wife said that since our family is building a big house, she just needs to build a small family, so she can''t just take advantage of the family." Qin Mingsong hasn''t said anything yet. Old Mrs. Liu next to her said arrogantly, "She is self-aware." Qin Chi immediately took over the conversation, "That''s right, my wife doesn''t want grandma to be in trouble." "Our family doesn''t raise freeloaders." Old Mrs. Liu was very satisfied. "That''s right! My wife is also following Grandma''s wishes." Qin Chi''s words left Qin Mingsong speechless. I could only curse Old Liu in my heart for holding him back. Qin Chi looked at his second uncle and third uncle, as well as Xiao Liu and Lin, "To say that the ones who have paid the most to my uncle in this family are none other than the second and third uncles. In order to let my uncle study, Qin Chi looked at them. I havent had a penny in my pocket all year long. Also, my third aunt was not in good health, so she didnt even want to spend money to get some medicine, saying she would save it for my brother-in-laws education. The people present had different thoughts after hearing this. Qin Laosan wanted to give Qin Chi a thumbs up after hearing this. Is that what his third aunt wants to save? no! At that time, Mrs. Lin was pregnant, and Mrs. Qin wanted to take her to see a doctor to get medicine. Mrs. Liu refused to give her money, saying that the money would be left for Qin Mingsong to study. The incident was quite ugly at the time. Finally, Mrs. Li took out her private room and asked for a doctor. But now that Qin Chi said it, it was Lin''s credit. The same thing was said in another way, and Lin suddenly became a person who was very grateful to Qin Mingsong. If Qin Mingsong treats them badly in the future, he will be ungrateful. Old Man Qin remained silent on this. On the contrary, Old Liu''s face looked ugly, but she wanted to refute but couldn''t find the words. Because Qin Chi got the head start, the matter of the two starting a new family was over. Don''t talk about separation. It is normal for parents to not separate the family. No matter how noisy the family is, as long as the elders do not take the initiative to mention the family separation, no younger generation will dare to mention the family separation. Otherwise it will be regarded as unfilial. To put it simply, it is unrealistic to separate the family. In today''s society, large families are respected and admired by society, while the increase in small families is seen as a symbol of family decline. For example, the weakening of family cohesion, the division of property and responsibilities, and the impact of social status. Give an example. Someone is staring at the fat piece of Qin family. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! But the Qin family has a scholar and a scholar, as well as several adult men. If you want to provoke them, you have to think twice. What if the Qin family becomes four families? Don''t talk about being separated and still being brothers. They are indeed brothers, but they will be regarded as four families. If something happens to one family, the heads of the other three families will first consider their own family, and only when they have enough energy will they free up their hands to help their brothers. If something happens to happen that one cannot afford to provoke, each family will have to deal with the problem on their own. This is a social reality. But if there is no separation of the family, the interests of the family will be tightly tied together. When encountering a problem, everyone will only use their strength in one place, and the strength will naturally be greater. Moreover, this world is not stable, and famines, wars, and various plagues often occur. Therefore, it is not a special situation. If the elders in the family are still alive, the family will usually not be separated. Unless the elders are unkind and want to abandon the burden. Just like the old Qin family in the previous life, the second and third bedrooms were abandoned. When the Qin family''s mansion was almost completed. Song Jin''s small home has been built. Sit north and face south, leaning against the mountains and facing the water. In this place in the countryside, Qin Chi did not build the house very exquisitely. It was a Japanese-shaped house with three rooms and two patios, and the horse-head wall was built very high. There are four wing rooms, four veranda rooms, a main house and an ancestral hall. There are main entrance and side entrance. This is consistent with the status of a scholar. The mansion built by Qin Mingsong is much better than their small home, with bricks, wood, stone carvings, etc., the door covers, window lintels, beams, columns, and window sash are decorated in various forms, the shapes are realistic and lifelike, and there are even buildings. The facade built this time must be very good. But he spent a lot of money, and Qin Mingsong lost 90% of his savings. Before the mansion was built. Song Jin and the others have moved to a new home. Mrs. Li said she wanted to take care of her children, so she moved in with her. Boss Qin said that he had never been separated from his wife in his life, and he would go wherever her daughter-in-law went. So he ignored the gloomy faces of Old Man Qin and Old Liu and said seriously: "Mom and Dad, I''m going to stay with Da Lang temporarily. I remember that the new house of my fourth son will leave a wing for me and my wife. We are a family, so we can''t live apart." "Get out! Get out of here! You loser." Old Qin didn''t have anything in his hand. If he had something, he would definitely smash it over. Boss Qin rolled away contentedly. Chapter 141 Brother-in-law is dating a woman Chapter 141 Uncle is dating a woman "It''s all your fault, how can you allow their little family to be independent?" Old Liu couldn''t help but complain. Old Qin glanced at her angrily. He didn''t say much in front of his son and juniors, but this old guy didn''t know what he was thinking, so he actually blamed him? Song Xiu felt guilty and quickly interjected: "They might as well move out, but Dalang drinks medicine all day long, which makes the house smell like Chinese medicine. It''s like this every day when he goes to his new home. That''s unlucky. He might ruin the new house." The feng shui is ruined. "What nonsense?!" Qin Laosan looked at Song Xiu angrily, "Our family has been smelling medicine for so many years, and the feng shui has not been bad." "Yes, Mom and Dad, didn''t the fourth child still win the election!" Qin Laoer looked at Old Man Qin and Old Liu, "If the feng shui is broken and you can still win the election, then I don''t know how many people are expecting it to be bad." Old Liu is the most superstitious person in this family. I heard that the feng shui is bad, can I get it? But I heard that the two brothers were asking for compensation, and I thought about it, but the new home smelled of medicine when they first moved in, which was indeed a bit bad. So Old Liu said dryly: "It''s good for Da Lang to go there to recuperate." "Okay, let''s get started in the new house. Let''s think about how many tables we can set up." After Old Qin spoke up, no one was bothered about Dafang''s affairs anymore. Naturally, you have to choose a good day to get a fire in your new home, and you also need to notify relatives. These big houses don''t care. After Song Jin moved out, he wanted to buy someone, but Qin Chi said there was no need to do so. Mrs. Huang and Lao Li Tou came over the next day, bringing Lao Li Tou''s mule cart with them. Song Jin had already guessed that they were Qin Chi''s people. With them at home, Song Jin suddenly felt relaxed. Mrs. Huang did the laundry, cooking and daily cleaning, while the heavy work such as collecting firewood and water was usually undertaken by Mr. Qin and Mr. Li Tou. Xiaoyu from the pharmacy also came over. Girls of a few years old can do light work, such as looking after children, making tea and handing out things. People from the old house came to see it and were extremely envious. What''s more, Sanlang is not a big man, and he actually works in a medicine shop, which makes the rest of the family jealous. Song Jin had just put the two milk babies to sleep when he heard someone talking outside. "Oh, this is such a blessing. I even bought a servant. I have lived for a long time and there is still no one to take care of me." Old Liu''s strange voice sounded. Song Xiu chuckled and said, "This is unfilial. There is no one to serve the elders yet, so the younger ones can enjoy it first." "Don''t grandma have Xiu''er to take care of her? How can someone else take care of her as well as her daughter-in-law''s attentiveness?" Song Jin''s main theme is a heart-wrenching one. Sure enough, Song Xiu''s face twisted after hearing this. Song Jin saw Old Liu''s sneaky eyes wandering around, "Don''t worry, Grandma, when you move to the new house, my uncle will hire some servants to take care of you no matter what. If you keep yelling like this, others will think you are young." How unfilial my uncle is." "I asked you, what are you doing to your uncle?" Old Liu pointed at Song Jin and wanted to scold him. As a result, Qin Chi, who happened to hear it next to him, echoed, "My wife is absolutely right. There are not many servants in the house of any master in the county. Grandma, if my uncle didn''t buy it, it must be his fault." Song Jin and Qin Chi couldn''t help but smile at each other, understanding each other tacitly. This is another time to dig a hole for Qin Mingsong. Otherwise, there would be people waiting in the big room, but not the two old men, and outsiders would have to make some gossip. But isn''t there a person holding him up in front of him? Nowadays, the entire Lao Qin family has indeed undergone great changes. Everyone put on new clothes and had a different spirit. Old Qin was wearing robes that only old men would wear, like an old landlord, and Old Liu also started to wear gold and silver. Outsiders wouldn''t be too surprised when they see it. After all, having a Juren in the family is considered a change of family. In the future, the Qin family will not be considered a farmer, but a family of farmers and students. When Qin Mingsong becomes an official, his status will take another leap, and he can be called an official family. Old Liu couldn''t talk to Song Jin and Qin Chi, so he left angrily. With round eyes, Song Xiu walked up to Song Jin, then glanced at Qin Chi who was motionless on the side, "Sister, the house has been built, but we still don''t have enough money to buy furniture or something." "If you don''t have money, why don''t you ask Qin Mingsong for it?" Song Jin raised his eyebrows and looked at her. Did she help Song embroider earlier, which gave her the wrong impression? He actually dared to come up to her and say he was short of money. Song Xiu was not happy when he heard this, "This is my housewarming, you should congratulate me." "Hey, have you forgotten that we haven''t separated yet? This housewarming belongs to you and our big house." Song Jin''s words made Song Xiu choke. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! She had forgotten this. Song Jin''s eyes turned slightly, and he continued: "We no longer work in the big house. We work so hard all year round and only have so little money. It is better for the master to write a word and sell it. From now on, this family will depend entirely on my uncle. "You, do you want Bara to **** blood from my husband?" Song Xiu pointed at Song Jin and said angrily. Song Jin moved her fingers away, "Isn''t this normal? In the past, several families provided him with a single education, but now that he has excelled in education, it is naturally his turn to support the family." "My wife makes a lot of sense." Qin Chi echoed from the side. Song Xiu glared at Qin Chi, "Shut up, you sick man. Do you have the right to speak?" In her heart, Qin Chi will die sooner or later. It doesn''t matter whether you offend or not offend. Judging from the fact that he drinks medicine as frequently as water recently, you can tell that he must be seriously ill. snort! So what if Dafang hid it well? Who allowed her to have memories of her past life? "Really? I was planning to tell you that my uncle got on a carriage today, and there was a woman in the carriage...cough cough cough." Halfway through, Qin Chi started coughing. Song Jin pretended to be worried and went to help him, "Why are you so anxious? Isn''t it just that my uncle is dating a woman?" This chorus made Song Xiu tremble with anger. She grabbed Song Jin''s wrist and said, "Tell me clearly, whose carriage Qin Mingsong got on? When did it happen?" "Didn''t I say it was today?" Song Jin shook off her hand, "It''s not just us who saw this, there were also children in the village who saw it just after noon." "Where did the carriage go?" Song Xiu asked anxiously. Qin Chi pointed in the direction kindly, "Would you like me to ask Uncle Li to take you there in a mule cart?" "Yes! Go quickly!" Song Xiu''s face was ferocious because he was angry. Old Li Tou went to the shed in the backyard to hitch up the mule cart. When he came to the gate of the front yard, Song Xiu couldn''t wait to go up, urging Old Li Tou to hurry up. Qin Chi and Song Jin watched the mule cart drive away. "Do you think Song Xiu can find someone?" Song Jin asked funnyly. Qin Chi chuckled, "With old Uncle Li leading the way, how could I not find him?" Song Jin laughed when he heard this. Qin Chi had already arranged for people to keep an eye on Qin Mingsong''s whereabouts, and there was really no reason why he couldn''t be found. Chapter 142 Catch an adulterer Chapter 142 Caught in rape Song Jin looked at the mule cart that gradually disappeared on the path at the entrance of the village, wondering if he wanted to see the scene? "Ms. sir, I''m a little worried about Xiu''er." Song Jin said this, not to mention Qin Chi, she herself didn''t believe it. Qin Chi immediately agreed with her wish. Ask Qin Yi to get a carriage, and then go in the direction of the mule carriage. The mule cart didn''t move very fast. The carriage quickly caught up, but it didn''t get close. It was far enough away that only the tail of the mule cart could be seen in the distance. The mule cart stopped at a suburban house. The house is hidden in the woods and is usually a villa used by wealthy families to escape the summer heat. Qin Chi ordered: "Qin Yi, let Song Xiu enter without hindrance." Without help, it would be almost impossible for Song Xiu to catch the traitor. You must know that the concierge of such a house will not allow a stranger to enter. Even if he goes in, the servants of the Bai family will not let Song Xiu find Qin Mingsong without alerting others. Just make a little noise. Qin Mingsong and Bai Cuiwei would not let Song Xiu catch them. Song Jin looked at Qin Chi with surprised eyes. Qin Chi suddenly realized that his move was not very aboveboard, so he put a layer of halo on himself, "Madam, I don''t want my uncle to make mistakes. He raised an extramarital wife as soon as he got his fame. It would be unpleasant to spread the news, but it will be more likely to happen later." It will harm the Qin familys reputation. "What your husband said is true." Song Jin seemed to agree. Qin Chi sat upright again and said: "Instead of letting my uncle make the same mistakes again and again, I thought that I would not let him fool my aunt like usual. The best way is to let my aunt see it with her own eyes." "Yes, my husband is really worried about my uncle." Song Jin had a look of emotion on his face. Qin Chi''s eyelids twitched, and then he coughed. He wasn''t pretending to cough, but he was choking on his own saliva while holding back his laughter. Song Jin pretended not to understand and obeyed him as if he was concerned. The secret guard driving the car was speechless for a while. I didn''t expect the young master to be such a young master. Song Jin waited for Qin Chi to stop coughing, then got out of the car to pay attention to the situation ahead. Song Xiu lifted up her skirt and got out of the mule cart, then strode towards the side door of the house. This side door was originally bolted from the inside. It was Qin Yi who stepped into the courtyard first and opened it from the inside, allowing Song Xiu to push it open. Clearing obstacles for Song Xiu along the way is like knocking someone unconscious when they meet him. Song Xiu walked straight into a flower-filled back garden and saw a man and woman clinging to each other in a pavilion with elegant scenery. The woman shyly rested her head on the man''s shoulder. The man did not push away the woman''s approach. This is obviously to enjoy the beauty''s favor. Song Xiu looked like this from a distance. When he strode closer, he realized that this couple was Qin Mingsong and Bai Cuiwei. The two of them were deeply in love and so unhappy. "Bitch man and woman!" Song Xiu was so angry that he lost his mind. He strode over and splashed the tea on the stone table onto Bai Cuiwei''s face. Bai Cuiwei''s face had delicate makeup that would melt when exposed to water. "Ah!" Bai Cui screamed slightly and quickly covered her face with her sleeves. Song Xiu had worked in the Qin family and was much stronger than when she first married into the Qin family. She rushed forward and grabbed Bai Cuiwei''s long hair, and then slapped Bai Cuiwei. on the face. "It''s you vixen again!" "Shameless bitch, seducing a married woman!" "Are all the unmarried men outside dead, so you have to stare at my man? If you are so mean, I will be ashamed of your ancestors." Song Xiu cursed in his mouth without hesitation in his hands. When you hit someone, you used all your strength. Bai Cuiwei didn''t react for a moment, but Song Xiu took the opportunity and slapped her several times. Song Xiu also made Song Xiu pull her hair so hard that her scalp was almost pulled out. Qin Mingsong didn''t react just now. When he saw Song Xiu beating someone, he quickly reached out and grabbed Song Xiu. "Song Xiu! Stop it!" Qin Mingsong shouted angrily. "Crack!" Song Xiu slapped Qin Mingsong in the face with his backhand, "I had to have lost my mind to believe that you and this vixen were not having an affair." At this time, Song Xiu was already dizzy with anger, so how could she care about Qin Mingsong. Anyway, when people are angry, they can do anything. It was just a slap on the face of Qin Mingsong, which was really nothing to Song Xiu. No matter how Qin Mingsong develops now. In Song Xiu''s subconscious mind, he always wanted to marry. If nothing happened to the Song family, how could she marry him? Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Mingsong should be lucky to be able to marry her, but he still dares to secretly raise a woman behind her back? Qin Mingsong looked at the crazy-looking Song Xiu with a sinister look in his eyes. He raised his hand and slapped Song Xiu in the face, causing Song Xiu''s head to buzz and his body to spin half a circle. "Have you calmed down? Song Xiu!" Qin Mingsong shouted coldly with a gloomy face. Song Xiu was stunned for a moment. The next moment he saw Qin Mingsong pulling Bai Cuiwei up and protecting him behind him, the string of reason that had briefly recovered was suddenly broken again. "Qin Mingsong! You actually hit me because of a fox? I will fight you!" Song Xiu rushed forward and punched and kicked Qin Mingsong, but as a woman was petite, her advantages in fighting were limited for men. Qin Mingsong pushed her away. She wrapped herself around him again and bit his arm. This crazy state doesn''t look like a normal person. Bai Cuiwei was so frightened that she backed away. Qin Mingsong is a man no matter what, and he has many innate advantages over Song Xiu, and he restrained Song Xiu in a short time. On a big tree outside the garden. Qin Chi and Song Jin sat on it. From that angle, you can clearly see what happened in the pavilion, and you can even hear the sounds. This can only be said to be Song Xiu''s voice, which was indeed loud, including Bai Cuiwei''s scream before. There was such a big commotion in the garden and no servants or maids had come to the house yet. The main reason was that Bai Cuiwei and Qin Mingsong had a private meeting earlier and dismissed the others in advance. One of the remaining maids was knocked unconscious by Qin Yi. Otherwise, Song Xiu would not have entered the backyard garden and no one would have stopped her. Qin Mingsong felt malicious and wanted to pretend to miss and push Song Xiu into the lotus pond next to the pavilion. This man had just been brought to the railing. Suddenly, a stone was shot from nowhere! He hit Qin Mingsong''s arm violently. The severe pain made Qin Mingsong let go of Song Xiu all of a sudden! When he saw the stone falling to the ground of the pavilion, he was immediately horrified. Is there really someone behind Song Xiu? No, someone is protecting her secretly! This shocking discovery made Qin Mingsong panic and forget about Song Xiu for a while, allowing Song Xiu to find an opportunity and pounce on Bai Cuiwei again. Song Xiu beat Bai Cuiwei. "You bitch! If you are so short of men, I will give you ten or eight!" "The White House is too shameless to let you out to harm others. You just rely on this face to seduce men. If I don''t ruin your face today, my surname will not be Song!" (End of chapter) Chapter 143 Isnt this ridiculous idea? Chapter 143 Isnt this ridiculous idea? "don''t want!" Bai Cuiwei screamed and dodged. Between pulls. Song Xiu accidentally tore open Bai Cuiwei''s lapel, and saw the fresh red marks on the bones at a glance, "Haha! You couple! We only went to the garden to have **** after we finished our work." Song Xiu, who was experienced in this art, could tell at a glance that it was a hickey. Qin Mingsong and Bai Cuiwei met at noon. It has been more than two hours since now. Since Qin Mingsong returned home from Zhongju, he has never had the chance to go to Fucheng. The two of them have been separated for a long time. When they first met, it was like thunder from the sky that stirred up the fire in the earth, and they fought to the death. Song Xiu was more aggressive. Just beat him to death! Bai Cuiwei, who was raised as a talented girl, couldn''t resist Song Xiu, who was so desperate, so she could only dodge in panic, "Qin Lang, save me! Save me quickly..." "No, don''t hit me!" "Ouch, I have a stomachache, help me..." Qin Mingsong was brought back to his senses by Bai Cuiwei''s call, and he quickly stepped forward to protect his sweetheart. But Song Xiu''s perseverance also annoyed Qin Mingsong. He was also afraid of the people in the dark, so he turned around and grabbed Song Xiu''s arms, hugging the person, then turned back to Bai Cui behind him and said softly: "Get out of here and call someone!" "I, I..." Bai Cui slightly covered her belly and turned around in a hurry to leave. How delicate and elegant she looked just now, how miserable she looks now. "Somebody come!" Bai Cuiwei called people away from the pavilion, "Rou Zhu! Rou Zhu, where are you? Come and save me..." Bai Cuiwei couldn''t say the next sentence. As soon as she approached the corridor, she saw the unconscious maid Rouzhu leaning against the railing. Going forward and squatting down, Bai Cuiwei pushed her in panic, "Rou Zhu? Rou Zhu, wake up quickly." This time she came to Yi County to meet her lover, and only brought a maid, Rouzhu. Maybe Bai Cuiwei is lucky. After being shaken by her, Rouzhu woke up unexpectedly. This was also related to Qin Yi''s failure to kill him. "Little Miss, what''s wrong with you? What happened?" Rouzhu was in a daze, but when she opened her eyes and saw Bai Cuiwei in a panic, her eyes widened in shock. Bai Cui slightly covered her lower abdomen, "Rou Zhu, my stomach hurts." "Slave, please go and find a doctor for the young lady right now!" Although this courtyard is not the Bai family and was borrowed by Bai Cuiwei and Handkerchief, there are still several servants in the courtyard. Rouzhu helped Bai Cuiwei back to the side room, and then quickly found someone to call the doctor. Song Jin didn''t see what happened here. However, Qin Mingsong stopped Song Xiu. Bai Cuiwei is no longer present. After Song Xiu vented his anger, everyone became quiet and looked at Qin Mingsong with resentment. Qin Mingsong was extremely irritable, "Xiu''er, when will you be sensible?" "How do you want me to be sensible? Tolerate you messing around outside?" Song Xiu asked angrily. Qin Mingsong stood half a foot away from Song Xiu. Song Xiu sat on the stone bench in the pavilion. Qin Mingsong stood and tidied up his messy clothes, straightened his clothes and sleeves, and returned to his usual cool attitude. "It''s not a big deal for a scholar to have a confidante or two. Even if you spread the word about this, it''s just a romantic affair to me." It was precisely because he could see clearly that Qin Mingsong dared to be so blatant. Compared with other classmates, which one is not accompanied by wives and concubines? Rumor has it that Qin Mingsong is indeed restrained. As long as he doesn''t spoil his concubine, kill his wife, or divorce his wife and marry another, as long as he maintains the respect he deserves for his original wife, even if he often visits brothels and has a lot of foreign wives. At best, his reputation is a bit of a philanthropy, but it will not affect his future. After all, whoever is an official in the court does not have three wives and four concubines? Qin Mingsong turned sideways and looked out of the pavilion, and continued in a cold voice: "To be honest, I can''t quite understand your thoughts. No matter where you were from before, don''t you think that your father, brothers, and uncles only marry wives and don''t take concubines?" Song Xiu''s eyes widened suddenly. There was just a hint of guilt on his face. Qin Mingsong then sneered: "You are just a concubine yourself, which means that even your father has taken a concubine, but you want me and you to be together for the rest of your life. Isn''t this idea ridiculous?" Song Xiu lowered his head and moved his fingers guiltily. Her aunt had taught her since she was a child that a man''s words should not be trusted, and only the interests in his hands were the most important. However, which farmer in the family doesnt only marry one person? Why is Qin Mingsong an exception? Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Xiu finally remembered belatedly that Qin Mingsong was only from a peasant family, but he already had a reputation as a civil servant and might have many women in the future. After calming down, Song Xiu suddenly felt at a loss. Qin Chi and Song Jin, who were watching the show not far away, didn''t know what to say. When Song Jin heard what Qin Mingsong said, he knew that this farce had to come to an end. Qin Chi looked sideways at the people around him. After spending so much time together day and night, he could feel that Song Jin was not in a good mood. He was very happy just now, but now he was not feeling well, so he asked softly: "Madam, do you want to continue reading?" "No more, let''s go." Song Jin was not interested in continuing to read. Qin Mingsong was standing on the commanding heights and continued to rebuke Song Xiu for his unreasonable troubles, "You should be lucky that I didn''t bring him back home. It''s just an outside wife, you can''t tolerate this. Do you want to marry me again with Li?" Someone who is willing to stay with you forever, I will definitely give you a generous dowry." "don''t want!" Song Xiu said with serious eyes. In the end, he just glared at Qin Mingsong, ran away from the pavilion as if to escape, and then walked out of the side door. When going out, he soon saw Lao Li Tou''s mule cart, and Song Xiu hurriedly got on the cart. "Come on, go home." Song Xiu didn''t want to stay here for a moment. If she stayed any longer, she was afraid that Qin Mingsong would propose divorce again. Otherwise, what would she do if he divorced her out of jealousy? The impulse is followed by a moment of fear. Of course, if you encounter something like this again, you will still break out when you should, and you will still make a fuss when you need to, and you will have to wait for a while after the fuss is over. You can be afraid, you can be timid. But it wont change, this is Song embroidery. Song Jin stood behind a big tree not far away, calmly watching Song Xiu being taken away by Old Li Tou, and then another handyman from the other courtyard left in a hurry. Qin Chi asked Qin Yi and knew what the man was going to do. "That woman''s maid asked someone to ask for the doctor." "This is not normal." Song Jin intuitively felt that there was something wrong, "Song Xiu hit someone with such force that it was so strong that it was just a skin injury. It just needs to be treated for a while. It''s not enough to call a doctor." "My wife is still smart. Qin Yi said that Miss Bai covered her abdomen and told the maid that it was abdominal pain." When Qin Chi mentioned this, he had a vague guess in his heart. Song Jin also wanted to go with him. I just saw that Bai Cuiwei''s abdomen was not bulging, so the pregnancy would not exceed three months. This is a pregnancy that I missed at the beginning of the year, and now I am still pregnant again! (End of chapter) Chapter 144 Liu Laoweng Chapter 144 Old Man Liu Song Jin and Qin Chi returned to Qinjiagou. It didn''t take long for me to receive news that Bai Cuiwei was indeed pregnant, but the month was still young and there were signs of miscarriage. Qin Mingsong originally wanted to stay but was worried that Song Xiu would go back and talk nonsense, so he could only comfort Bai Cuiwei first and then go back to Qinjiagou. When Song Xiu returned home looking like that, he naturally attracted the attention of the old Qin family. Not long afterward. Xiao Liu came to Song Jin to gossip, and said vividly: "When he came back, his face was swollen like that, but he didn''t say anything, he just hid in the room and cried." Song Jin asked Xiaoyu to bring some sesame candy to Xiao Liu, and also specially prepared a pot of warm tea. Xiao Liu said while eating: "My mother-in-law suspected that the four younger siblings had lost their innocence when they went out. Do you know how she would answer?" "How to answer?" Song Jin was curious. "Haha, I said it was my uncle who hit me! He also said that my uncle is nothing. You said it was funny or not, but it calmed my mother-in-law." Xiao Liu described the situation at that time very vividly. Song Jin listened with great interest. Next, Xiao Liu said regretfully: "Originally, the four younger siblings were about to be forced by their mother-in-law to tell the truth, but who knew that my brother-in-law just happened to come back. Oh, what a pity." Then Mrs. Liu ate and took them, wrapped the sharp candies in a handkerchief, and said she would take them back to Shilang and Wulang. There are no rumors about today''s farce, but it must not be hidden for long at home. If you know that Bai Cuiwei is pregnant, Qin Mingsong should have told Old Man Qin and Old Liu in private. What will the two elders do then? If Song Xiu knew about it, there would be trouble. It is said that Qin Mingsong did not stay at home that night. He packed up a few books and pens and went out on the pretext of going to a classmate''s house. He also said that he would rush back before the fire broke out in his new residence. Some more days passed. The weather has already turned cold, and winter is approaching again. Qin Chi said that he was recuperating at home, but in fact the dragon never saw its end. Even Song Jin rarely saw him. Logically speaking, this is normal. It is strange that someone with a big family and a big business can take care of himself every day. On the day the fire broke out in the old house and the new house. The big house also wants to go over and help. Boss Qin and Qin Chi went over to help early in the morning. Mrs. Li was taking care of her baby at home, but Song Jin originally wanted to go over, but when she just went out, she met Lou Ruhan coming over. Lou Ruhan was followed by Sanlang. Sanlang put on new clothes, his little face was rosy and he was full of energy, "Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law, grandma asked you and aunt to take Huzi Niuniu over." The twins'' nicknames are very random. Song Jin didn''t care, and smiled and said, "Okay, we''ll be there in a minute." Saburo just came to deliver a message. There were still many things going on over there. He turned around and said goodbye to Lou Ruhan before going back. At this time, Song Jin looked at Lou Ruhan, "Are you here to see your sister, or is there something else?" "Master, there is news over there that someone is there. The situation seems not to be good. What are your instructions?" Lou Ruhan said respectfully. Song Jin pondered for a moment, "I''ll go there in person later. You go and see your sister first." Lou Ruhan responded and went into the house to find Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu was very happy to see her brother coming over, while Lou Ruhan looked at his sister and found that her face was a little rounder. He was relieved and handed the small bundle he brought to his sister. The two brothers and sisters went aside to whisper. Song Jin went back to the house and said to Mrs. Li, "Mom, please take the children to the old house. I have something to do and I have to leave for a while. I think I will be back before the sun goes down." "If you don''t go to the banquet, aren''t you afraid of what they will say?" Li''s phoenix eyes looked at Song Jin with a smile. Song Jin smiled and said, "It''s okay." Just this sentence, not much said. Li knew that Song Jin had a special status in the Qin family, and this specialness was due to Old Qin''s attitude. She had long seen that Old Qin was afraid of Song Jin. It''s just that the daughter-in-law is too erratic, as if she can leave at will, and has never thought about integrating into the Qin family. This is because the son is useless, and he can''t even win over his wife''s heart. Wait until Mrs. Li and Mrs. Huang go out holding a milk baby. Song Jin did not wear a curtain when going out this time. Instead, she put on a cloak and went out. She only had to pull up the hood to cover most of her face. The cold wind outside. The whistling sound is bone-chillingly cold. Lou Ruhan came in a carriage. Song Jin originally asked him to work as a medicine boy. After working for a while, he found that he was not that talented, so he worked with Xing Lun. When he had time, he also learned martial arts from a master. Song Jin sat in the carriage for nearly an hour. We arrived at a ruined temple at the foot of a mountain. There was a boy standing guard there. When he saw Lou Ruhan driving the car, he immediately came up to him and said, "Brother Han is here. He is still inside. He is so sick that he is confused." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Okay, got it." Lou Ruhan jumped out of the carriage and went to lift the curtain. Song Jin bent over and came out, looked around, and finally landed on the boy guarding the car. The boy was smart and immediately stepped forward to salute, "Master, I am Xiao Liuzi." "Okay, thank you for your hard work." Song Jin got out of the car and walked towards the ruined temple. The dilapidated temple was not protected from the wind. There was an old man huddled in the corner, wearing a shabby cotton coat and a large old cloth bundle on his chest. His face was flushed and his lips were chapped. It was Mr. Liu who Song Jin remembered from his previous life. The old man who taught her how to cook medicinal materials met him in the previous life in the spring of next year. At that time, his body had already begun to suffer from the root cause of the disease. She only heard him mention during casual conversation that he once stayed in this ruined temple. Song Jin couldn''t find his people before and didn''t know when he came to Yi County, so he told his characteristics and arranged for people to pay attention to the ruined temple. Go notify her when this person appears. Song Jin squatted in front of the old man. I was about to take away the baggage in front of him, but when I got closer, I realized that there was a thin child in the old man''s arms, who looked like two or three years old. Song Jin felt bad at first sight. This child looks sick! Song Jin quickly took off his cloak, wrapped up the child, and said hurriedly: "Lou Ruhan, Xiao Liuzi, come quickly and move the old man into the carriage." The two came quickly to help. After a while, the people were moved into the carriage. The carriage turned around and went back, and Xiao Liuzi followed him and sat on the carriage shaft. They were sent to a medical clinic first to give an old man and a young man medical treatment and medicine. Then take the two of them back to the pharmacy to take care of them. Lou Ruhan gave the old man a bowl of medicinal soup and drank it down. The old man suddenly woke up and said, "Young man, who are you?" Then he sat up suddenly again, "Where is my grandson?" "Old man, my name is Lou Ruhan. It was our boss who saved you. Your grandson is seriously ill. He is in the next room and is being taken care of by the bank manager." Lou Ruhan told the old man''s condition, "My boss said that you two should recuperate here." Song Jin did not stay here. After explaining some things, he hurried back to Qinjiagou. The old man has a story. If you are too enthusiastic and deliberate, you might be suspected by him. As soon as he entered Xiaojia, he saw Qin Chi. Chapter 145 frenzied Chapter 145 Crazy Qin Chi''s eyes wandered around her body, "Going to save people?" "Well, you''ve heard of him too." Song Jin was not surprised that he knew his whereabouts, "It''s the old man Liu who knows how to concoct Aconite." Qin Chi''s eyes lit up, "Is he in Yi County?" "It''s the grandfather and grandson. The situation is not good." Song Jin went out to save people this time. He originally thought it was only Old Man Liu, but he didn''t expect that there was also a child with him. There was no such child in his previous life, and the old man never mentioned it. It is possible that the child did not survive the winter. The two of them entered the house while talking. There was a charcoal stove burning in the house, which was much warmer than outside. "Last time the imperial doctor mentioned Liu Weng, I sent Fei Ge to send a letter to Nancheng County to check on this person." Qin Chi said this, making Song Jin pause. Song Jin looked at him sideways and said, "Continue." "You don''t know his situation?" Qin Chi knew that Song Jin had some available people. They went out of their way to save someone, but they didnt know the other persons true identity? To be honest, Song Jin really didn''t know. In his previous life, the old man was taciturn and never mentioned his past affairs, making it impossible for Song Jin to investigate even if he wanted to. In other words, he only heard a few words from Qin Chi in this life. Qin Chi sat next to the charcoal stove, took out the warm ginseng tea, and pushed it to Song Jin, "Liu Weng is just an honorific outsider. This person''s name is Liu Qiyou. He is a well-known old pharmacist in the local area. He has a very exquisite preparation." With his medicinal material craftsmanship, most of the medicinal materials in his hands are very effective. I originally wanted to invite people to Huizhou..." Naturally, this request failed. Last year, Old Man Liu''s family was robbed by bandits, and only Old Man Liu and his grandson were left dead. Later, I heard that the grandfather and grandson were also missing and their whereabouts were unknown. The person who went to investigate sent back a message to Qin Chi, saying that the so-called bandits were very suspicious and killed people too quickly and with one knife. This was most likely a murder. Rather than being unlucky and encountering bandits. Qin Chi told Song Jin these suspicions. Song Jin looked solemn. Thinking about the time when the Liu family''s accident happened again, Song Jin couldn''t help but murmured: "This is similar to what happened to my family...it was the same year and the same month." Qin Chi suddenly looked up, "What did you just say?" "I said something happened to the Liu family at about the same time as my family -" Song Jin stopped mid-sentence. The two of them doubted whether there was a relationship between the two. Qin Chi thought about it and said, "You must know that the people behind the scenes who are targeting the Song family are probably for the Song family''s craftsmanship, and the same is true for the Liu family." "I really came here for Mr. Liu. It''s impossible to kill everyone. If it were me and my family members were killed, I would not help him commit evil even if I died." Song Jin thought of the differences between the Song and Liu families. The Song family has disappeared, and the Liu family has only one elder and one child dead. Qin Chi discovered the problem keenly, "The problems between the two families are different. There are many people in the Song family who know craftsmanship, but it is the Liu family who is the only one who is good at it. Liu Qiyou is the only one who is good at it. As long as he has a grandson to keep him in check, I don''t dare to Resistance. But something unexpected happened midway, causing the grandfather and grandson to escape. Nancheng County is not close to Huizhou. Qin Chi continued: "This is just a little guess on my part. I will tell whether it is true or not after I investigate." The subordinates recruited by Qin Chi asked them to investigate the Liu family''s case and check whether there were similar missing cases across the country. There may be one or two, or there may be three. Those people were so ruthless back then that they almost killed Lao Huo. Nowadays, the power in Qin Chi''s hands has been completely different from what it was in the hands of He Lianpu. An old man and a young man in the medicine shop had just recovered from their illness when Qin Chi and Song Jin came to their door. Liu Qiyou looked at this pair of outstanding young people with surprise in his eyes. In this small place, there are such outstanding people, and there are two of them. When he learned that Qin Chi and Song Jin were a couple, Liu Qiyou was filled with emotion. "You two are truly like gods." Liu Qiyou stood up and saluted the two of them, then pulled his grandson and asked him to kowtow to Song Jin, "Xiaodouzi, this is your savior, so remember it. We are not capable, so we may not be able to repay the kindness, but we can''t." Ungrateful. For big people, showing kindness is just a matter of effort. Let them repay the favor, that is, pay lip service to them, but the real need to come to them is very small. There is nothing wrong with Liu Qiyou educating children in this way. It just sounds weird. Song Jin was very happy when he saw that the old man was much more cheerful than in his previous life. His eyes couldn''t help but fall on the little boy in front of him. Hearing his grandfather''s words, he came to Song Jin in a flash. He knelt down naively and kowtowed his head. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin was so frightened that she quickly bent over and picked up Little Douding, "Why are you so sincere? Look at your forehead, it''s red!" "Thanks!" Xiao Douding is two years old and has difficulty speaking. Song Jin hugged Xiaodouzi and sat aside, letting him sit on his lap. "I came here today because I want to ask Mr. Liu something." As soon as these words came out. Liu Qiyou''s expression changed, and when he looked at Song Jin again, his eyes became wary. But soon, he returned to normal. The vigilance in his eyes was gone, but he was still very confused, "Do you two know who I am?" "To rescue you, I naturally have to investigate your origins." Qin Chi motioned to Liu Qiyou to sit down and talk. Song Jin and Qin Chi''s calm attitude makes it easy for people to let down their guard. Liu Qiyou did not regard the two as the people who were chasing their grandfather and grandson from behind, precisely because they were the ones who rescued them. Without their help, Xiaodouzi probably would not have survived this time. This is a real life-saving grace. Qin Chi gave the old man enough time to think. Liu Qiyou is decades older than Qin Chi, so he still has some abilities. "Do you have anything to ask?" "I just want to ask, who is behind the plan to kill you?" Qin Chi went straight to the point. Liu Qiyou looked sad when he heard this, "I don''t know, those people are crazy and kill everyone on sight." The old man thought of something, his lips trembled, and tears instantly filled his eyes. Seeing this, Song Jin turned aside, picked up the pastry on the side, gave a piece to Xiaodouzi, and asked Lou Ruhan to take him to the next room to play. There are some words that children should not listen to. Liu Qiyou wiped away his tears and glanced at Song Jin gratefully, "Those people wanted to ask me to do things for them, but I didn''t want to go, so the other party deliberately spared Xiaodouzi''s life, saying that if I didn''t obey, he would be killed... " Those people took away the grandfather and grandson. Overnight in a forest. Liu Qiyou is an old pharmacist who not only knows how to prepare medicine, but is also good at using medicine. He secretly picked some medicine in the forest, poured it out on his enemies, and then killed them all. Then he took Xiaodouzi and hid to Yi County. "I killed those people, but there are still people looking for us." This is enough to prove that that group of people is not simple. Qin Chi and Song Jin looked at each other. Sure enough, they came here for Liu Qiyou''s craftsmanship. Chapter 146 The old house is busy again Chapter 146 The old house is bustling again Leave from Liu Qiyou. Song Jin looked solemn and said: "I didn''t expect that there is a force behind the scenes that is arresting Mr. Liu. Could it be the same group of people?" "I sent someone to investigate. It''s just that the other party is hiding, so they may not be able to find anything." For example, Qin Chi has not yet found any clues about the whereabouts of the Song family. "No similar case has been found so far." News has come back from Huizhou and several nearby state capitals that those with outstanding skills in preparing medicinal materials are alive and well, and no cases like the Song family and Liu family have happened. The investigation results from further places have not yet been transmitted back to Yi County. Song Jin was a little depressed. So what if you know? No clues were found! Liu Qiyou also didn''t know the origin of that group of people. Qin Chi quietly accompanied Song Jin back to Qinjiagou. This time, he did not go back to his small home first, but transferred to his old house. Everyone has now moved into their new homes. Boss Qin and Mrs. Li also moved in. After all, this family has no points. When the house was being built, it was okay for the two of them to go to the small house for a while. Even if they changed to a new home, they would still stay there. Others would inevitably gossip. Old Man Qin and Old Liu didn''t allow it either. Not only did Boss Qin and Mrs. Li have a wing, but Qin Chi and Song Jin also had rooms. However, the two of them didn''t come back to live there, so they asked Boss Qin to clean up and put two small beds inside for the twins to rest in the future. Qin Chi and Song Jin went out today. The two milk dumplings followed grandma to the old house. As soon as I arrived in front of this magnificent mansion, I heard a faint noise coming from inside. Song Jin paused and said with a cold expression, "There is still something bad about not living together." "What''s wrong?" Qin Chi''s handsome eyebrows were slightly raised. When he went to live alone in a small house outside, he felt that any place was good. Suddenly he saw his wife listening to the goings on inside, and he suddenly realized: "The only bad thing is that I can''t watch the excitement in time." Song Jin suddenly looked sideways at him. That little look in his eyes was enough to prove that what he said was right. Qin Chi laughed, "We said we were moving to a small home, and we are here to fulfill our filial piety." "My husband is right." Song Jin asked Qin Chi to go in first. Qin Chi raised his hand to push the ajar door open enough to allow people in, then stopped. When Qin Chi entered, Song Jin followed him in, and then closed the door behind him. "Brother and sister-in-law are back." Qin Daya said happily. Everyone who was talking in the main room stopped. Song Jin followed Qin Chi in. There was a charcoal pot burning inside the house, which was a little warmer than outside. Judging from Song Xiu''s appearance, he must still be angry. In this winter, my little face was flushed with anger, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on my forehead. "What happened?" Qin Chi took his wife and sat down, which was closest to the charcoal basin. "You could hear the noise at the door just now. It''s so noisy just after moving into the new home. Isn''t it bad luck? It affects the feng shui. What should I do?" "Don''t talk nonsense, Dalang." Old Qin seemed to scold him. Qin Chi smiled faintly, "Isn''t this a sentiment? Grandpa also knows that everything will be prosperous if the family is harmonious." Old Qin had nothing to say now. Song Jin didn''t believe what Qin Chi said, he was just being petty. Song Xiu previously despised him as a sick man and said that the smell of medicine every day would affect the feng shui of the new house. Although Qin Chi did not hear those words on the spot, they still reached his ears. Then he looked around at the people in the room. Except for Lin and the children, almost everyone in the family was present, including Qin Mingsong. It''s just that Qin Mingsong''s face doesn''t look good. Just now Song Xiu broke out again. It was she who discovered that Qin Mingsong was not at home. He said he was going to his classmates, but actually he was going to another courtyard to accompany Bai Cuiwei. "Let me tell you, the child is already here, and it''s time to bring him into the family. Otherwise, the child will be born as an outsider, and it will be unpleasant to hear about it. Husband, do you think so?" Song Xiu''s yin and yang words were very unexpected. the expectations of those present. Even Song Jin was surprised. Qin Chi was also surprised. He leaned close to Song Jin and whispered in Song Jin''s ear: "What path did she take this time? It was a bit unexpected." Song Jin thought about it and understood the reason, and said with a smile: "The problem should be with the person outside. After all, he comes from a scholarly family, how can he be a concubine?" Qin Chi''s eyes were speechless after hearing this. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The child is pregnant, but she still doesnt want to come in? Having **** without a matchmaker is already a done deal, so what else can you do to be so reserved? Qin Chi''s eyes fell on Qin Mingsong, "Brother-in-law, a gentleman is magnanimous. Since he provoked this girl and ruined his innocence, he should take responsibility." He said this as if Qin Mingsong had played with someone else''s girl and didn''t want to take responsibility. Character was questioned. Qin Laosan immediately agreed, "Da Lang is right, men must be responsible and take responsibility for those who should be responsible. This is a matter of life and death." "I also want to advise the fourth child, don''t be like Chen Shimei if you win the imperial examination. Our second husband and the others still want to marry a wife. It''s better to prepare quickly and get the person in as soon as possible. Then, just tell the outside world that the child is a premature baby. Its decent in terms of face. Qin Laoer followed suit. Others looked at Qin Mingsong. Qin Mingsong looked bitter and felt annoyed. This was like the accusation of a thousand people. Everyone who looked at him felt that he was a heartless man, the kind of person who played tricks on women and didn''t want to be responsible. Old Liu couldn''t help but said angrily: "What are you talking about? Is this Si''er''s fault? It''s the one outside who is surnamed Bai, who said he doesn''t want to be a concubine." "Shut up." Old Qin glared at Old Liu. When Old Liu stopped talking, Old Qin turned to Qin Mingsong and said, "What a woman says about not being a concubine is just to raise the price. Si''er, make her your concubine." Qin Mingsong was quiet for a long time, "I will discuss this matter with Cui Wei." "Then take advantage of the fact that the child is only a few months old and come in early." Old Qin didn''t want to say anything bad outside. The Qin family also wants to be famous. Song Jin sneered. She also wanted to see if Bai Cuiwei could continue to be arrogant. When Song Xiu looked at Qin Mingsong, she had the illusion that she wanted to kill him. Anyway, it was sinister. If you don''t look carefully, it''s nothing. If you look seriously, it''s scary. For the first time, Song Xiu is no longer in trouble. Song Xiu snorted coldly and strode out of the main room. A whole room of people were left behind. At this time, everyone could see that she was unhappy, and no one thought that there was anything wrong with her move. Song Jin glanced at Song Xiu''s leaving figure and looked down at the charcoal basin thoughtfully. Xiao Liu moved to her side and winked, "Daughter-in-law, don''t you go and see your two milk babies?" "Yes, I just want to go." Song Jin replied with a smile, then whispered to Qin Chi, got up and walked outside, and Xiao Liu followed immediately. Chapter 147 Absolutely impossible Chapter 147 Absolutely Impossible Song Jin was walking in the corridor, and before she could turn to the backyard, Xiao Liu followed her. "Daughter-in-law, do you know?" With Xiao Liu''s opening remarks, Song Jin immediately knew that she wanted to say something. Song Jinzhi asked: "What happened?" Xiao Liu is a talkative. People who are talkative may not know that talking too much is not good, but they often cannot control it, and they will feel uncomfortable if they hold things in their hearts. Soon Song Jin was able to extract something useful from Xiao Liu''s words. The cause of today''s commotion was not Song Xiu. But when Mrs. Liu learned that Bai Cuiwei was pregnant, she complained that Bai Cuiwei refused to be a concubine, and was worried that her unborn grandson would always be living outside, so she asked Old Man Qin to think of a way. Song Xiu accidentally heard the two talking. Old man Qin hasn''t thought of anything yet. But Song Xiu thought of a way for them and asked them to accept him directly. "Oh, according to me, the fourth brother and sister shouldn''t have asked my uncle to let someone in. They let him in so easily. They got pregnant as soon as they came. How can he get pregnant in the future?" Xiao Liu said this from the perspective of a country person. To be honest, I was thinking about Song Xiu. A good lady naturally despises concubines. No matter how high the status of the woman outside is, she cannot stop this contempt. Although Song Jin disagreed with Xiao Liu''s idea, he did not refute her words and even nodded along. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly saw Song Xiu standing there at the other end of the corridor, looking at the two of them. Just by looking at their faces, he must have heard them talking. However, Song Xiu also heard Xiao Liu''s last words. Knowing that Xiao Liu meant no harm, she snorted coldly, "Second sister-in-law, I let people in, but they are still not happy." "How is this possible?" Xiao Liu didn''t take Bai Cuiwei''s words about not being a concubine seriously, "The woman outside has lost her innocence, and she is just relying on her belly to take Qiao. When she comes in, you can take good care of her. I will help her then." You, keep her submissive." Hearing this, Song Xiu looked up and burst into tears. She looked at Xiao Liu with a moved face. Seeing Xiao Liu made me feel a little scared. This is not like the Song Xiu I usually see. In the past, her nose was not a nose, and her eyes were not eyes. The more Xiao Liu thought about it, the more wrong she became. She quickly made an excuse, "Oh, I have something else to do, so I won''t tell you yet." The man left these words and ran away. While running, she turned around and glanced at Song Xiu defensively several times, only to find that Song Xiu was still looking at her with an moved expression, and she ran even faster! "Why is my second sister-in-law running so fast? It''s like there''s a ghost chasing her." Song Xiu took out her embroidered handkerchief and wiped her tears gracefully, "I used to think that my second sister-in-law was quite annoying, but I didn''t expect that she would be the first one to support me since I married into the Qin family." This moved her so much! Finally someone is on her side! Duoduo has been suppressed for a long time and finally saw a ray of light. Song Jin only thought this scene was funny. After Song Xiu finished being moved, he raised his head and glanced at Song Jin, who was standing leaning on the railing, "Don''t you want to say something, sister?" "Why did you take the initiative to take a concubine today? This doesn''t look like you anymore." Song Jin suddenly felt emotional. "I''m not a fool." Song Xiu fluttered the embroidered handkerchief in the wind, and then said with a sneer, "The guy outside has a big heart." Song Xiu was taught by her aunt. I dont know how many times Ive heard of the underhanded methods of beating up a small back home. There are many live and **** examples among them. Bai Cuiwei''s approach was a big deal in Song Xiu''s eyes. Dont want to be a concubine? That is what I want to be a wife! If you still refuse to be a concubine despite knowing that you have a legitimate wife, then what is left? Most likely he is planning to kill his wife to take over! "That **** wants to force me to give up my position?" Song Xiu looked at the patio sinisterly and said through gritted teeth, "This is absolutely impossible!" Song Jin looked at Song Xiu carefully for a while. After a long while, he finally confirmed something. When Song Xiu came across the matter of the back house, his brain suddenly became bright. Probably because I was taught well by my aunt since childhood. Song Jin smiled and said: "Xiu''er is right, as long as you live, a concubine will always be a concubine. I am here to wish Xiu''er a long life." After saying this, Song Jin walked towards the main room. Song Xiu did not follow. Instead, he stood there quietly watching Song Jin leave. He didn''t look back until he couldn''t see anymore. Then, Song Xiu turned around and went up the stairs step by step. He was obviously going back to the house, but it seemed like he was going to the battlefield. Time has come to the end of the year quickly. The weather became colder and colder, and it snowed heavily. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Mrs. Li and Boss Qin moved in the little cat Dong. The reason was that it was too cold to hold the two babies back and forth. So as not to give the child a cold. The two little naughty dumplings got sick one after another not long ago, and the fight was quite noisy, which frightened both Old Qin and Old Liu. Therefore, Boss Qin and Mrs. Li didn''t live there, and the two elders didn''t say anything. Especially during this time at home, there are a lot of things going on. The matter concerning Qin Mingsong''s concubinage has not yet been clarified. To the surprise of everyone in the Lao Qin family, Bai Cuiwei still insisted on saying that there was no girl in the Bai family to be a concubine. Mrs. Liu also went to see Bai Cuiwei. When she came back, her face was longer than a horse''s. I also have opinions on Bai Cuiwei. If Bai Cuiwei hadn''t been Bai Daru''s daughter, Mrs. Liu would have pointed at Bai Cuiwei''s face and cursed her, fearing that offending her would affect her son''s future. Still the kind that scolds very dirty and filthy people. Bai Cuiwei''s belly was also a month old, and it was far-fetched to say she was born prematurely. No one was urging her to come in now. Song Jin watched the development of the situation coldly. In the past life, there was nothing like this, but I dont know how long Bai Cuiwei can hold on. "What are you thinking, madam, so absorbed in your thoughts?" Qin Chi returned home in the wind and rain, his fox fur cloak stained with snowflakes. Song Jin stepped forward to help him take off his cloak, then swept away the snow on it, and said calmly: "Today, the second aunt came to gossip with me again, saying that grandma went to see Bai Cuiwei, and she probably got angry there. He looked very ugly when he came back. "What does my wife want to do?" Qin Chi didn''t have to think hard to know that she wanted to do bad things. Song Jin looked at Qin Chi shyly and angrily, "Why doesn''t your tone sound like a nice word?" "Why isn''t that a good thing?" Qin Chi raised his eyebrows and asked. Song Jin glanced at him sideways. This look showed that he understood. Qin Chi laughed, "Okay, it''s all my fault. My tone was wrong." Song Jin hung the cloak on the screen and then asked: "Ms. sir, do you think Bai Daru knows that his daughter is pregnant?" "You want to bring the matter to Bai Daru and force Bai Cuiwei to lower her head and carry her into the Qin family?" Qin Chi immediately understood Song Jin''s intention. Song Jin nodded, "Meeting the wishes of the two elderly people in the family is what we, the younger generation, should do." "Oh, my wife is so filial." "It should be!" (End of chapter) Chapter 148 abusive letter Chapter 148 A Cursing Letter Since Bai Cuiwei had fetal motility last time, the doctor asked her to stay in bed carefully for a while. It stands to reason that as the new year is approaching, the body has been recuperated long ago, and the master and servant should have returned to the capital long ago. It happened that she was angry again! The reason was that someone had written her a letter. There is no signature on the letter, only a few lines of poetry: That woman''s arrogance is not as good as that of a magpie. That woman''s obscenity is worse than that of a magpie. A magnanimous gentleman has no pleasure in speaking. When Chuchu saw the content of the letter, Bai Cui was so angry that her hands trembled and her face turned blue from holding back. This poem was written by Li Bai, the poet of the Tang Dynasty, but it is not a good poem. The general idea is to scold women for being too arrogant, despicable, rude, and shameless, even worse than those beasts! This hit her right where it hurts! No outsider has ever dared to scold her like this, and scolded her so viciously, except for Song Xiu! When the concierge said this letter was sent from Qin Juren''s house. She immediately concluded that the letter was written by Song Xiu. This made her angry. Bai Cuiwei, who has always been arrogant and used to being sought after by others, became angrier the more she thought about it, and that night she complained of stomachache. I asked the doctor to come over and take a look overnight. Its terrible, this is fetal gas again! The doctor asked her to stay in bed again. In this state, it was impossible to take a car back to Fucheng years ago. Rouzhu asked worriedly: "Miss, are you really not going back?" "So what if I go back? Rouzhu, I can''t go back anymore. In order to be able to stay with the one I love forever, I gave up my reputation a long time ago. Now there is no way back." Bai Cuiwei is very aware of her situation. Rouzhu said for him, "But Miss, your life is too hard. No one can support you. Even a country woman dares to bully you." "It doesn''t matter. These difficulties are just tests given by God to me and Qin Lang." Bai Cuiwei thought of Qin Mingsong, and her heart felt sweet. I saw that the maid was still worried. Bai Cui raised her eyebrows and said softly: "Rou Zhu, you really don''t have to worry about me. I know what I''m doing. My father once said in private that as long as nothing happens, Qin Lang''s knowledge will be enough for him to be a Jinshi." Rouzhu''s eyes were surprised, "Is this true?" "Of course it''s true. There''s no need for father to lie." The most proud thing in Bai Cuiwei''s life is that she has a father who is a great scholar and can win the respect of many people. "When Qin Lang becomes famous in the future, I will look back and see that my hardship is nothing." Hearing this, Rouzhu felt relieved. As long as the young lady lives well, she can have a good life. The fate of master and servant is connected. As for Bai Cuiwei''s insistence on not becoming a concubine? Of course there is a reason. The laws of this dynasty expressly stipulate that concubines cannot be straightened, which prohibits the reversal of the positions of wives and concubines and the act of marrying two wives at the same time. The purpose is to prevent from the source the consequences of indistinguishability caused by the confusion of wives and concubines. However, no matter how good the law is, people must abide by it. If Qin Mingsong does not enter the official career, it does not matter, but if he enters the court and becomes an official, once the concubine is rehabilitated, it will give political opponents a handle. Even if you agree to be a concubine, it will be difficult to straighten you out in the future! It''s better to be comfortable as an outsider first. At least being a foreign wife is still free, you don''t have to face the main wife to make things difficult, and you don''t have to serve the elders. Especially when Bai Cuiwei asked about old Liu''s personality, that mother-in-law was not easy to get along with. This made her not want to go to Qin''s house even more. The current life is not good, but as long as Qin Mingsong wins the Jinshi and takes office with him, everything will be fine. There were footsteps outside. After a while, someone knocked on the door quietly. The master and servant looked at each other, and Bai Cuiwei quickly lay back on the bed. Rouzhu goes to open the door. Suddenly, he saw Qin Mingsong standing outside. Rouzhu quickly said happily: "Miss, Qin Juren has come to see you again." "Ah, is it Lang Qin who is here?" Bai Cuiwei''s voice revealed surprise. This made Qin Mingsong feel soft and stepped into the house. Bai Cui slightly wanted to get up to greet him. "Weiniang, don''t get up, lie down and rest." Qin Mingsong stepped forward to prevent her from getting up, and then sat on the edge of the bed. A beautiful woman half lying on the bed. Due to pregnancy, her fair face has become much more haggard and thinner than before. Ask yourself, the young man admires Ai. Qin Mingsong may have other intentions in approaching Bai Cuiwei, but he cannot deny that this is also the first woman he has fallen in love with. Thinking of what his family said, Qin Mingsong asked tentatively: "Weiniang really won''t follow me home? I have to concentrate on preparing for the exam, so I will inevitably neglect you." Bai Cuiwei snuggled into his arms and said aggrievedly: "But the Bai family girls never become concubines. Anyone who becomes a concubine will be kicked out of the house without exception." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Mingsong hugged her and said, "I made you suffer." "As long as I can be with Qin Lang, I won''t feel wronged." Bai Cuiwei acted coquettishly in Qin Mingsong''s arms, and said with a gentle and yearning voice, "I only want to stay with Qin Lang forever, even if I have a simple meal every day. It doesnt matter, I only envy mandarin ducks but not immortals. Qin Mingsong was filled with panic after hearing this. Asked specifically what he was panicking about, he couldn''t tell clearly. Since getting married, everything seems to be out of control, and troublesome things have happened one after another. Originally, I caught up with Baifu. When he can use Bai Daru''s connections in high school in the future, he will definitely be able to find a good place. What about now? Somehow, it became the current situation, and I couldn''t help but wonder whether I should write a letter to Bai Daru first to apologize. Qin Mingsong whispered: "Weiniang, what should I do? You are so kind. You always make me think about you and cannot bear to let you down. Just wait, wait until I win the Jinshi..." Song Xiu is protected secretly. This shocked Qin Mingsong. He asked his father again and again that time, and also told him about the affairs of the other hospital. This time my father didn''t hide it anymore. Knowing the origin of Song Xiu, Qin Mingsong was worried but not much anymore. The Song family collapsed overnight, which caused the price of medicinal materials in Huizhou to rise steadily. It has not fully recovered yet. Qin Mingsong has also heard people mention this. But several young masters talked privately and said that the Song family''s case was not simple... Before waiting, Qin Mingsong wrote to Bai Daru. The White House suddenly announced that Bai Cuiwei had died of illness! I don''t mean to say it to everyone. Someone asked, and this is how the servants of the White House responded. Qinjiagou. The couple''s small home. Song Jin asked in surprise: "Why did you tell others that you died of illness?" "The Bai Mansion has given up on Bai Cuiwei to protect its reputation." Qin Chi was not surprised by Baifu''s choice. Literati have always paid attention to reputation. Song Jin suddenly smiled, "Someone may be sad." "You mean the one named Bai?" Qin Chi guessed Song Jin''s thoughts at once, and then he smiled vaguely and said, "When you wrote the letter to scold her, she felt uncomfortable for several days, and she even moved her fetus because of it." Song Jin''s smile faltered slightly. She obviously did this very covertly. Chapter 149 Qin Mingsong’s choice Chapter 149 Qin Mingsongs Choice No one expected that the abusive letter was secretly written by Song Jin. Even Bai Cuiwei, who received the letter, first suspected that the letter writer was Song Xiu. Song Jin''s intention of doing this was very simple. He wanted to cause trouble for Bai Cuiwei and arouse her resentment towards Song Xiu, killing two birds with one stone. Anyway, it can make Song Jin feel bad. Song Jin said helplessly: "There is really nothing that can be hidden from my husband''s eyes." "Ha, madam, I didn''t let anyone spy on you. I found out by watching the people over there." Qin Chi couldn''t let Song Jin misunderstand. Song Jin was relieved when he heard this, "I have nothing to hide from your husband." Qin Chi raised his generous hand and pressed it on Song Jin''s head. Song Jin looked at him in confusion, wondering what he wanted to do, and then the next moment she found that his big hand had moved and rubbed the top of her head. Then Qin Chi bent down and approached her. The suddenly enlarged handsome face was in front of her eyes. Song Jin subconsciously wanted to lean back, but Qin Chi grabbed it with his big hand and directly grabbed the back of her head. Song Jin tried to stay away from failure. "Husband and wife are supposed to be one. Madam, why don''t you try to trust me more." Qin Chi''s overly superior features were covered with a layer of gentleness. At this moment, it was as if she was the only one in his eyes! Song Jin''s heart suddenly jumped. Tried to push him away, but couldn''t. He could only look at her for a moment, then moved his eyes away without leaving any trace, and his steady heart beat a rare beat. The smile on Qin Chi''s lips deepened. "Wow wow wow." Suddenly, the child cried loudly. The ambiguous atmosphere was suddenly broken. Song Jin quickly left Qin Chi and walked into the house without looking back. She didn''t forget to say, "The child is crying. I''ll go take a look first." "Oh!" Qin Chi curled his lips and smiled. Sooner or later... Just at this time. Qin Yi''s voice came: "Sir, the maid of the Bai family has come to Qinjiagou. She is coming to ask for an audience with Qin Juren." "It seems that the news has reached Miss Bai''s ears?" Qin Chi wanted to take Song Jin to watch the fun. Then he thought about the cold weather, so he forgot about it and just let Qin Yi continue to pay attention to the follow-up. "I will report any new information in a timely manner. My wife is very concerned about this matter." Qin Chi thought of Song Jin''s unusual attitude towards the two of them. Sometimes he had a gut feeling that Song Jin and the two of them had a big grudge, but unexpectedly he didn''t find any doubts. You must know that before Song Jin married into the Qin family, she had never met her brother-in-law, let alone Bai Cuiwei. The only person who is related is Song Xiu. After much deliberation, I can only think that Song Jin was venting his anger on Song Xiu''s behalf. Qin Chi has not forgotten how sad he felt when Song Jin first came to the Qin family and was betrayed by Song Xiu, which made him very unhappy. "My wife said she was heartless, but she never gave up in her heart. She is really a big fool..." Qin Yizheng was about to retreat when he heard the young master''s disgusting words. If he really dislikes the young master, then he is a fool. I can only say that this is a beautiful misunderstanding. It successfully concealed the unreasonableness of Song Jin''s excessive attention to Qin Mingsong and Qin Mingsong. Qin Chi half-crouched beside the small bed, stretched out a big hand to tease the baby, and gently shook his little feet again and again. "Would you like to watch the fun, madam?" "I won''t go." Song Jin was holding her daughter in her arms and coaxing her. The baby had cried just now. Her big eyes were like the washed sky, bright and pure. "It''s better to stay at home with your child when you go out in the cold weather." "I thought you''d be interested." "You don''t need to look at it to get a general idea. It''s just that Bai Cuiwei looks panicked and lost. Oh, and your uncle''s heart-broken supporter is gone. That expression should be quite interesting." Song Jin and Bai Cuiwei have never been in contact with each other in their past lives. What is known is only from investigation. It''s just that the truth that was investigated came to light. In the previous life, the White House claimed that Bai Cuiwei was married far away, but in this life, the White House claimed that she died of illness. In fact, the reason is not difficult to understand. No one interfered with his and Bai Cuiwei''s affairs. The two lived naturally and comfortably, and they even had children. For the sake of his two grandsons, Bai Daru chose to turn a blind eye. There has been one incident after another in this life. Song Jin guessed that the biggest reason was probably related to the whistleblower letter. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! An unknown person sent a letter, which meant that someone knew about the scandal Bai Cuiwei had done. There is always a hidden danger if we let it go, so it would be better to cut the knot quickly and announce that Bai Cuiwei died of illness. Even if there is any scandal in the future, the reputation of the White House can be preserved. Song Jin chatted again: "Without the glamorous status of the scholarly family, can the two of them still be in love as before?" "Uncle will not abandon her." Qin Chi said very firmly, "As long as Bai Daru is alive, it will be a kind of protection for Bai Cuiwei." "Bai Cuiwei has nothing to do with Bai Mansion anymore." Song Jin raised her eyes and glanced sideways at him. Qin Chi calmly asked back: "You and Song Xiu also threatened to break off their relationship, but haven''t you been looking for trouble for my uncle and Bai Cuiwei just to vent her anger?" "It''s for my husband''s sake that I can''t bear my brother-in-law making the same mistake over and over again. If I were someone else, would you take care of me?" Song Jin started talking nonsense again. Hearing this, Qin Chi laughed loudly, "Then I would like to thank you for your consideration." "You''re welcome, it''s just your duty." As soon as these words came out, Qin Chi laughed even more. He invited Ms. Li from next door over and asked, "What happy thing happened to you and made you laugh so loudly?" "My wife told a joke, I couldn''t hold it back for a moment." Qin Chi said in a warm voice. Afraid that Mrs. Li would ask about the joke, Qin Chi quietly changed the subject to the two milk babies. When it comes to her grandson and granddaughter, Li has endless topics to talk about. After a while, Boss Qin also came. The whole family gathered in the same room today, entertaining their children, talking and laughing. Almost at the same time, in the forest courtyard. Qin Mingsong rushed over and saw an overturned soup bowl in the house. Soup and water spilled all over the floor. As soon as she saw Qin Mingsong coming, Bai Cuiwei cried and threw herself into his arms as if she had seen a savior, saying in a panic: "What should I do? Qin Lang, my family doesn''t want me anymore, wuwu, I don''t believe it! This news Its fake, it must be fake! "Weiniang..." Qin Mingsong hugged Bai Cuiwei and whispered comfortingly: "You still have me, and I will always be by your side." Bai Cuiwei was in despair for a long time. He seems unable to accept the fact that he was abandoned by his family. "Qin Lang, can we get married? As long as we get married and plead guilty to my father, he will definitely forgive me." Bai Cuiwei''s voice trembled, as if she was extremely panicked. Qin Mingsong''s eyes turned deep. After a long time, he finally made a decision, "I can''t give you an upright identity now, but I can make you my upright wife." When he and Song Xiu got married, there was no marriage contract. With Qin Mingsong''s current status, it is not difficult to apply for a marriage certificate stamped by the Yamen. Chapter 150 nauseating Chapter 150 So disgusting that I feel sick to my stomach The next day, Qinjiagou. Early in the morning, smoke curled up from the village. Lao Li was cleaning the snow in front of the door. Mrs. Huang is preparing breakfast in the kitchen. Occasionally, I can still hear Mrs. Li''s voice coaxing her children. As soon as Song Jin woke up and got out of bed, she felt the coolness in the air. She couldn''t help shivering and hurriedly put on her cotton clothes. "Wake up so early? Don''t you want to sleep for a while?" Qin Chi asked in a lazy voice. Song Jin looked back at Qin Chi, who was half asleep, and her voice became softer unconsciously, "The child has woken up, and I''m going to take a look. You can sleep a little longer, and I''ll call you when breakfast is ready." "Well, okay..." Qin Chi''s half-lidded eyelids closed again. After washing, sit in front of the dressing table. She simply put her hair into a bun and only wore a wooden hairpin. Naturally beautiful, even in simple clothes, she still looks stunningly beautiful. Song Jin took out another box of daisy powder, thickened her eyebrows a little, and instantly suppressed the amazing color. Then she took out her own special yellowish rouge and applied it evenly to her face and chin, leaving her as white as jade. The skin turned yellow in an instant, and its luster became much duller. Then touch the paint lightly with the brush. Use the tip of the pen to tap randomly on both sides of the bridge of the nose a few times, like spots on the skin. Suddenly there were only three or four points left out of ten. After moving to a small home. Song Jin began to gradually cover up her appearance. A little change will not make people feel abrupt. Country people face the loess and back to the sky, and most of their skin is dark yellow and rough. Song Jin''s current appearance is very normal. One white one covers all ugliness, one black one destroys everything. Song Jin stepped out of the house to see the child first. I happened to see Mrs. Li feeding her child goat milk, and Xiaoyu was helping. "Are you planning to go out today?" Li''s phoenix eyes took a few more glances at Song Jin. Song Jin smiled and said, "I have to go to the medicine shop." "Pay attention to safety on the road, go early and come back early." Ms. Li warned. "I know, mother." Song Jin stayed with the child for a while. After breakfast, she went back to the house. Seeing that Qin Chi was still sleeping, she had no intention of waking him up and only asked Mrs. Huang to warm Qin Chi''s breakfast. Then, he went out in Lao Litou''s mule cart. The car walked slowly on the road. The sky is as blue as a wash, and the sun shines on the snowy ground, and also falls on Song Jin''s body, making people feel warm all over, even if their breath condenses into white mist in the cold air. Wait for the mule cart to arrive at the pharmacy. Yinlong is handing out New Year''s gifts, which are given to people who work in the pharmacy. The master''s etiquette is more important, followed by the apprentice''s. "Have you sent the gifts from the medicine farmers this year?" Song Jin asked casually. Yinlong replied: "Jin Ling has already arranged for someone to deliver it. Some medicinal farmers have difficult mountain roads, so they have to be delivered in advance." "Just give it away." This is the last time Song Jin comes to the medicine shop before the year. Everyone is on vacation this time, leaving only one or two people to take care of the pharmacy. Wait until the work at hand is finished. He happened to see Xing Lun coming in a hurry. As soon as he saw Song Jin, he strode over and stepped forward to respectfully salute. "I''ve met my boss." "What happened in this hurry?" Song Jin asked aloud. Xing Lun looked at the other people in the room. Song Jin sent everyone out. "My boss, Qin Juren asked a matchmaker in the town to go to the Yamen to apply for a marriage certificate for him..." Xing Lun said solemnly. "What did you say?" Song Jin looked shocked. Then her face turned extremely ugly. Did Qin Mingsong do the same thing in his previous life without her knowledge? That''s why Bai Daru told the public that Bai Cuiwei married one of his students. Later, when Qin Mingsong went to be a Beijing official, he seemed to have used Bai Daru''s connections. This realization made Song Jin feel sick to his stomach. Xing Lun noticed Song Jin''s anomaly, "My boss?" Song Jin asked gloomily: "Has the marriage certificate been finalized?" "Not yet, I have detained the matchmaker." When Xing Lun received the news, he immediately ordered someone to stop the matchmaker who was going to the Yamen. Now she was placed in a house, waiting for Song Jin to make the decision. "You did a good job this time. When the matter is over, you will be rewarded based on your merits." Song Jin''s face softened a lot. "Then I would like to thank my boss for everyone." Xing Lun smiled and thanked him. Then, Song Jin whispered a few more words, and Xing Lun nodded solemnly, turned and left. This is the benefit of developing manpower. If there is any trouble, you will be informed immediately. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! And because Song Jin lived here, Xing Lun was naturally more concerned about it and developed a lot of informants in the town. In addition, Song Jin once ordered him to pay more attention to the Qin family. Qin Mingsong is naturally also within the scope of attention. Xing Lun left the medicine shop. That is, a carriage was seen. Lou Ruhan and Xiao Liuzi were guarding the carriage, and the driver was Xiao Liuzi. "Brother Lun, have you met your boss?" Lou Ruhan asked eagerly. Xing Lun smiled lightly and said, "I''ve seen you. My boss has new instructions. You can hire a cheap matchmaker, rent a wedding sedan, and find someone who knows how to play gongs." "Ha, who doesn''t know how to play a gong?" Xiao Liuzi smiled and said, "Brother Lun, I know how to do it." "Okay, then you come." Xing Lun gave the order. Finally, I specifically mentioned that matchmakers must have a bad reputation. Song Jin finished what he was doing in a hurry. Then he took the New Year''s gift and returned to Qinjiagou. Returning to the village, I met several villagers who were clearing snow. An aunt called out loudly, "Da Lang''s wife, are you back from the medicine shop?" "Yes, the medicine shop is giving out New Year''s gifts today, I''ll go get them back." Song Jin greeted him with a smile. As soon as these words came out, everyone also saw the New Year Ceremony. Someone said enviously: "The owner of the medicine shop is really nice. My uncle''s family also received a boxing gift a few days ago. A big piece of fat meat, which is enough for a good year." "This is a good owner." It is a blessing for ordinary people to find a good owner. Just like the people in the village who worked for Huairen Medicine Hall before, they were squeezed to the point where they could hardly survive. Someone was moved and asked, "Can my family also cultivate a medicinal field next year? Mrs. Liu''s family will make a profit this year." "A new member of his family has been elected. Will the medicinal fields still be cultivated?" The content of this chat unknowingly went sideways. Song Jin walked past them and went home with a smile on his face. Since she moved out of her small home, she has gradually started to interact with people in the village. Of course, she also meets and says hello. Now everyone is used to her like this. Bring the New Year gifts from the car into the house. Back from the medicine shop, Song Jin had completely calmed down from the anger caused by Qin Mingsong. I wont lose my composure over this again. So what Qin Chi saw about Song Jin was the same as usual. After Song Jin wiped his face and hands with warm water, Qin Chi said, "Do you know what my uncle did?" Song Jin raised his head and asked, "Have you received the news too?" "I originally wanted to stop it, but then I found out that Xing Lun had detained the matchmaker, so I didn''t do anything extra." Qin Chi raised his hand and brushed the dust off Song Jin''s shoulders. What my uncle did was quite disgusting. If he was allowed to do it, Song Xiu would change from a wife to a concubine without knowing it. Chapter 151 Of course it ruined it Chapter 151 Of course it was ruined Song Jinpi smiled and said, "You old Qin family people are so scheming." Qin Chi said helplessly: "Madam, are you angry?" "Aren''t you angry? If this matter becomes a big deal, then I really have to congratulate the old Qin family. He made it the biggest joke in the ten miles and eight towns this year, and it also ruined the reputation of Qinjiagou. I wonder what others will do. Talk about you?" Song Jin pretended to be deep in thought, and then as if he had suddenly realized something, he said in a strange way: "It''s like that so-and-so in Qinjiagou. After he got the fame, he despised his useless wife and went to the Yamen to get a marriage certificate for him and his concubine in private. ,hehe." Qin Chi''s cheeks were hot from the ridicule. Although it wasn''t him who did this, he was still his brother-in-law. When Song Jin stopped talking, Qin Chi personally brought her a bowl of **** tea, "Come! Madam, drink some **** tea to warm yourself up. And madam, you and I are the same family. My uncle and I Not a stranger." It cannot be said that it is not a family. So it doesnt matter if youre not from the same place. Qin Chi waited for Song Jinshun to get angry, and then asked again: "Madam, did Song Xiu and my uncle have a marriage contract before?" Hearing this, Song Jin looked slightly startled. Then she shook her head. Qin Chi asked again: "Isn''t there any proof that my father-in-law and grandfather made a marriage arrangement?" "The situation at home was chaotic at that time. Song Xiu and I were hurriedly sent by servants to Qin...grandfather''s carriage. I also have the certificate with my grandfather." Song Jin thought of something and said with an ugly face: "But even if there is, then it is..." At that time, Song Jin was betrothed to Qin Mingsong, and Song Xiu was assigned to Qin Chi! Its time for a kiss! Even if there was a marriage contract, it belonged to Song Xiu and Qin Chi! When Qin Chi thought of this, his whole body felt bad. Song Jin went on to say, "My grandfather went to get the official marriage certificate for you and me, so the marriage certificate between me and Xiu''er should be at my grandfather''s place." After a woman gets married, the Gengtie copy goes to her husband''s family for safekeeping. Because of this, Song Jin didn''t think much about it. Qin Chi couldn''t sit still. He simply stood up, took out his cloak and put it on neatly, "Madam, I''m going to visit the old house, do you want to go?" "Wait a minute, I''ll bring you a New Year''s gift by the way. This is what the medicine shop wants to give to Saburo." Song Jin went to bring back the New Year''s gifts and took out a few random items. Then, the two went to the old house together. Here it is necessary to introduce the marriage contract. Marriage letters come in two forms. One is an official marriage certificate, and the other is a private marriage certificate. The official marriage certificate is the one that has completed the yamen marriage registration procedures. A private marriage contract is a marriage contract signed privately by a man and a woman through a matchmaker without going to the yamen for formalities. Folk marriage documents have always been the mainstream. Of course, there is also a group of people who get married only with a matchmaker and without even a marriage certificate. These people are usually illiterate and poor people, but the village chief will register the population. Either way, a matchmaker must be used to ensure the legitimacy of the marriage. So matchmakers are key. Infidelity without a matchmaker will not be recognized by the public. At present, the old house is preparing for the New Year, and it is relatively early to kill the New Year pig this year. When Qin Chi and Song Jin came over, Xiao Liu and Lin were making rice cakes. After saying hello one by one. Song Jin handed the New Year''s gift to Sanlang, "You have a share of the New Year''s gift distributed by the medicine shop." "real?!" Sanlang was very surprised. He took it and immediately said to Lao Gao, "Mom and dad, your son is going to be successful!" "Hahaha." Suddenly there was a burst of laughter. Everyone teased Saburo one after another. Qin Chi pulled Erlang over and asked in a low voice: "Is uncle at home?" "I went out early in the morning and haven''t come back yet." Erlang glanced around and whispered, "Before I went out, I went to see my grandpa. I vaguely heard my grandpa scolding my uncle. My grandpa''s face didn''t look good today." "I''ll go talk to Grandpa." Qin Chi walked towards the main room. Song Jin saw it and followed him. When Old Qin saw two people coming to him, his heart suddenly jumped. Especially Song Jin''s eyes that looked like a smile but not a smile, made the bad premonition even stronger. "What are you two doing here?" Old Liu was the first to speak. Seeing them, Old Liu didn''t have a good face. Qin Chi smiled and said with a good temper: "Grandma, does Sanlang work in the medicine shop? My wife went to the medicine shop today to receive the New Year''s gift, and by the way, she also received Sanlang''s gift, just in time to send it over..." Before he finished speaking, Mr. Liu quickly walked out, "This is a trick. If you don''t take something to the main room, you will lose it if you put it outside." Old Liu left. Now there were only three people left in the room. Old man Qin was sitting in front of a charcoal stove. Without him speaking, Qin Chi and Song Jin also sat down. "Grandpa, do you know what my uncle is going to do?" Qin Chi got straight to the point. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Old Man Qin wanted to deny it, but he had no shame, so he simply remained silent and did not answer. Qin Chi didn''t insist on his answer, "Grandpa, I came here to ask, when you and my father-in-law decided to get married, can there be a marriage contract?" Old man Qin looked at Qin Chi with doubtful eyes, "Why do you ask this? It won''t work if you have it." "Of course it ruined it." As soon as Qin Chi said these words, Old Qin understood. Turning around, Old Qin looked at Song Jin. Seeing that she didn''t say anything, he stood up and went into the inner room. After a small sound, Old Qin came out. There was a small cloth bag in his hand. Old man Qin opened the cloth. There are clearly Geng Tie from Song brocade and Song embroidery, as well as two gold-plated marriage contracts, which are also folk forms of marriage documents. Qin Chi opened two marriage documents. One is for Song Xiu and Qin Chi, and the other is for Qin Mingsong and Song Jin. Song Jin also saw it. She had never seen this thing in her previous life! The most important thing is that the marriage certificate actually has the signature of the matchmaker, but it lacks the official seal. At this moment, footsteps were heard outside. Song Jin caught a glimpse of a man''s figure at the door and took a closer look. It was Qin Mingsong who was back. Qin Mingsong had a look of surprise on his face when he saw the two of them present. Just when he was about to speak, he saw Qin Chi throwing the two marriage documents in his hand towards the charcoal stove. "Dalang, what are you doing?" Qin Mingsong came quickly, as if he was reaching for the charcoal stove. Qin Chi stood up to block him and asked with a cold face: "Uncle, what are you doing?" "I am" Qin Mingsong looked at the burning marriage contract dimly. His and Song Jin''s names were on it, and he felt inexplicably uncomfortable. It was as if something that should have belonged to him was suddenly lost! "Jin''er and I have been married for two years and have children. There is no need to keep this thing." Qin Chi picked up the tongs on the side, fiddled with the charcoal, and lowered his head to blow on the charcoal. Let the marriage certificate burn faster. Song Jin then laughed and said: "It should have been destroyed long ago, that is, my grandfather still kept it." Then she looked at Old Qin with a smile that didn''t reach her eyes. Old Man Qin was a little embarrassed, "After all, it''s your father''s writing, just a souvenir." The marriage letter was written by Song''s father. Qin Chi was glad that he reacted quickly enough to catch the fever. If you continue to keep this marriage certificate, it might cause trouble in the future. Then he picked up Song Jin''s Geng Tie and put it straight into his sleeve pocket. "Grandpa, let me keep Jin''er''s Geng Tie." Qin Chi thought that as long as he held Song Jin''s Geng Tie, this man wouldn''t have to run away. Old Man Qin wanted to stop it, but after thinking about it, he let it go, "You can take it if you want." Just when Old Man Qin wanted to put away Song Xiu''s Geng Tie. Song Jin took the lead and grabbed it again, "I will keep Xiu''er''s." "This is against the rules." Before Old Qin opened his mouth, Qin Mingsong stopped him. Song Jin took Geng Tie into his arms and said, "Tell me about the rules? Who has the least rules here, but you, Qin Mingsong." After saying that, Song Jin raised his head and looked at Qin Mingsong coldly, "Would you like me to publicize the good things you did today outside to make your reputation more famous?" Suddenly, Qin Mingsong''s pupils tightened. Chapter 152 There is no difference in this life Chapter 152: The same color in this life "Don''t understand what you are saying?" Qin Mingsong replied calmly. Song Jin smiled indifferently, "Forget it if you don''t understand. Grandpa, I''ll leave first if I have something else to do." The three of them watched Song Jin walk out. Qin Mingsong asked: "Da Lang, what did your wife mean just now?" "My uncle is not the only smart person in this world." Qin Chi turned around helplessly and glanced at Old Qin, "Grandpa, don''t you say a few words? Our old Qin family almost became a joke all over the country. Before coming here, I was scolded by my wife. Uncle." The reason was not directly stated. Everyone present knows everything they should know. Qin Mingsong only felt that his hands and feet were cold. The matchmaker he went to personally asked the matchmaker to keep it secret over and over again, but what he did on the front foot was discovered on the back foot? What does it say? It means that he has been under the surveillance of others, but he still knows nothing about it! "My uncle has always been very calm in the past, but when it comes to women, he loses his sense of proportion." Qin Chi''s Ruowuowu ridicule was the most deadly. Especially since he is still a junior. This made Qin Mingsong lose face and asked sternly: "Are you spying on me?" "What nonsense are you talking about? I happened to be seen by an acquaintance, so he kindly informed us." Qin Chi flatly denied the surveillance. This kind of thing can only be hidden in the dark, and it will be bad if it is brought to the light. Old Man Qin sighed and said earnestly: "Da Lang, the Bai Mansion claimed that Miss Bai died of illness. Your brother-in-law finally found a connection with Bai Daru, but it is about to be cut off. You should know after reading books over the years. "Severe." "I respect my uncle''s choice." From Qin Mingsong''s point of view, Qin Chi really couldn''t say anything wrong, "But grandpa, a gentleman has no regrets when he makes a choice. Since you have married someone back, you must be responsible to the end and treat them well. The player is hesitant about the move and his mind is swinging back and forth. Very You might lose everything." Old Qin opened his mouth to say something else, but when he saw Qin Mingsong''s gloomy face, he could only hold back his words, "I was the one who dragged your uncle down. I shouldn''t have decided on this marriage for him without permission." Qin Chi wants to say goodbye. If you dont book this marriage, where will my wife come from? He didn''t dare to say what he was thinking. A businesswoman from a scholarly family. Looking at the overall situation, Qin Mingsong''s choice is correct. Any man would choose this way. The reason why Bai Daru is called a great Confucian is that he has many people all over the world, including officials in important positions and children of noble family backgrounds. As long as he can connect with this network, Qin Mingsong will benefit a lot. It can only be said that old man Qin made a marriage contract without authorization, which really hindered Qin Mingsong. Old man Qin must have realized it, so he was depressed all day long. Qin Chi used the tongs to put a few pieces of charcoal into the stove, "Uncle, don''t blame grandpa in your heart. He is also doing it for your own good. The Bai family has a high family, which is not something we can climb. At that time, grandpa didn''t know you were so good." He has the ability to seduce Bai Darus daughter..." The more he heard these words, the colder Qin Mingsong''s face became. "Why are you hooking up? You can''t speak in a formal manner." Old Qin interrupted Qin Chi. He thought this guy was speaking for him, but this sounded more like a dig at Si''er. Qin Mingsong said coldly: "Is Dalang the same color in this life?" Qin Chi paused for a moment, then smiled calmly: "I never thought about it before, but now I see my uncle being tortured by two women. I decided to take this as a warning. One is enough in this life." Qin Mingsong lowered his eyelids and said, "I made a bad start." "That''s right, all the men in the Qin family are in pairs for the rest of their lives, with the exception of my brother-in-law." Qin Chi said with emotion. Qin Mingsong''s fist is hard! He felt that his nephew was becoming more and more annoying. Old Qin looked at Qin Mingsong secretly. Even if you want to refute Dalang''s words, it is true that there are no men in the old Qin family who are flirtatious, only Si''er has set a precedent. "Dalang, please don''t make a fuss about Si''er. Your wife won''t do anything, right?" Old Qin asked the key. Qin Mingsong also looked up at Qin Chi. The room was extremely quiet. After waiting for a long time, Qin Chi didn''t answer, but he didn''t speak, and his expression was extremely serious, which made people worried for no reason. Qin Mingsong frowned and said, "So what if it''s exposed? The Song sisters are the daughters of criminals. My family didn''t abandon them and gave them a place to stay. Shouldn''t we be grateful?" "I have to ask my grandfather, what benefits did he gain when he took great risks to accept these two marriages?" As soon as Qin Chi said these words. Old Qin''s eyelids twitched, and then he glared at Qin Chi angrily, "What are you so embarrassed about? Mr. Song saved my life." "It''s true that you are repaying your life-saving kindness, and there are no less benefits." Qin Chi said with a calm attitude that I already knew. This made Old Qin unsure for a moment. Did he really know, or was he deceiving him? "What did Dalang know?" Old Qin asked calmly. Qin Chi smiled and said, "Last year, something happened to the Song family suddenly. Everyone who was sent to inquire was either dead or disabled. Someone counted and found that a total of thirty-seven people died and nine were disabled." Old Qin opened his eyes wide in shock. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Mingsong was also surprised. He has never heard of this! Qin Chi added: "The dead and injured people come from various families. This is a warning. Anyone who dares to investigate the Song family case will die." After a pause, he said quietly: "There are two ancestors hiding in our family. If any news leaks out, haha..." Qin Mingsong''s heart trembled. Old Man Qin was unexpectedly calm. He thought that when he agreed to get married, Master Song warned him of the danger and asked him not to tell anyone about the sisters'' life experience. But he told Si''er, and now it seems that Dalang also knows. ! "Okay, no matter what happens, their background must be kept secret." Old Man Qin gave the two men a warning look. Finally, he stared at Qin Mingsong and said, "Si''er, I remember telling you that even if someone is in trouble, my family cannot afford to offend him." Qin Mingsong was ashamed. He is a noble man! Are you still afraid of a down-and-out merchant? This is really the most ridiculous thing in the world! Ridiculous! Not wanting to stay here any longer, Qin Mingsong rolled up his sleeves and stood up to leave. Qin Chi looked out the door, "Grandpa, my brother-in-law is our family''s hope for changing the family, but his mentality is not good. He despised others as soon as he became a civil servant. Has he forgotten that we are just mud-legged people?" Old Man Qin felt the same way. Qin Chi continued to apply eye drops, "For those who have been officials since ancient times, in the end, it is common for them to be executed." Old Qin''s heart was suddenly lifted. Knowing that it was almost done, Qin Chi stretched his long legs in a leisurely manner, and started chatting with Old Qin again, rambling around and back to the previous topic. "Speaking of grandfather, what benefits did my father-in-law give you?" "Get lost!" Old Man Qin was not fooled. "Bang!" "Boom, boom, boom!" Suddenly, the sound of gongs kept ringing outside, from far to near. People in the village went out to watch. I saw a wedding sedan being carried into the village by two bearers. Walking in front was a matchmaker in a red coat and a half-year-old boy. The young man was holding a gong. Take a few steps and knock. When he sees someone, he sings loudly: "Qin Juren is very happy to have a concubine today!" So everyone knew that Qin Mingsong had taken a concubine today. Before the wedding sedan arrived at the gate of the Qin family, the villagers watching the excitement came first! "Mrs. Liu, congratulations! There is a new member in the family. How many tables have been set up?" "What are you talking about? Do you like it or not?" Before Old Liu could recover, she saw a sedan chair being carried into Qin''s house. Chapter 153 True wife momentum Chapter 153 The momentum of the real wife "Get off the sedan!" "Bang!" Xiaoliuzi struck the gong. The bearer lowered the sedan chair. The matchmaker walked through the door with a smile on her old face, "Congratulations to the old lady, congratulations to the master of the ceremony, today I have a beautiful girl in the house. Ho ho, we have a new baby, and the family is full of children and grandchildren." The matchmakers auspicious words do not require money. The bearer opened the curtain. Xiao Liuzi signaled the matchmaker to help him out. The matchmaker quickly complied. Bai Cuiwei''s face turned pale and her hands and feet became weak. The shaking of the sedan made her want to vomit. Today, a group of people suddenly rushed into the other courtyard and forced her into a sedan chair. The man who beat the gong also warned her that if she did not cooperate, the scandal of her unmarried pregnancy would be made known to everyone. At first, Bai Cuiwei didn''t know what they wanted to do. Wait until here. The man rang the gong, and she realized that he was carrying her into Qin''s house. The matchmaker pulled Bai Cui slightly out of the sedan chair. Then, without waiting for Old Liu and others to ask questions, a group of people carried the empty sedan and slipped out of the Qin family gate, as if there were ghosts chasing behind them, and left Qinjiagou in a short while. Qin Mingsong was staying in the study when he heard the noise and came out, just in time to see Bai Cuiwei being pulled out of the sedan chair. "Weiniang?" Qin Mingsong walked downstairs quickly. As soon as Bai Cuiwei saw Qin Mingsong, she immediately threw herself into his arms and cried, "Qin Lang! Wow, I''m scared..." Old man Qin came out and dispersed the spectators, and asked old Mrs. Liu to close the door. Isolate outsiders from watching. The rest of the Qin family looked confused. "Why haven''t I heard of my uncle taking a concubine?" Saburo muttered. Xiao Liu tugged his ear and said, "I''ve never heard of it, let alone you?" "Didn''t she say she wouldn''t be a concubine?" "Who can say for sure..." Suddenly, while everyone was talking, they couldn''t help but look up to the second floor of the west wing. Song Xiuyi was watching what was happening in the front yard coldly from the railing. Song Xiu didn''t make any noise or fuss, which was surprising. She didn''t even go crazy when she saw Qin Mingsong hugging Bai Cui to comfort her. No one knew what Song Xiu was thinking. Especially after knowing that Qin Mingsong wanted to apply for a marriage certificate with Bai Cuiwei in private, it was strange that he still didn''t make a fuss. This is nothing like Song Xiu! Yes, Song Jin did not hide what Qin Mingsong did from Song Xiu. Song Xiuqian sat for a long time. Waiting for the gong to sound, the sedan was carried through the door. After a long time, Song Xiu smiled. She walked downstairs step by step with great grace. Song Xiu said to little Liu in a warm voice: "Second sister-in-law, please go to the kitchen and bring me a bowl of hot tea. Aunt Bai will serve me tea later." "Hey, I''m going right now!" Xiao Liu immediately responded. When Bai Cuiwei heard this, she cried even more sadly, "I said I won''t be my concubine, why did your Qin family force me?" "It wasn''t us." Qin Mingsong suppressed his irritation and explained, and then asked patiently, "Tell me first, what happened?" "Suddenly, someone broke into the other courtyard, forcibly took me into a sedan, and threatened me..." With tears in her eyes, Bai Cuiwei finished telling what happened intermittently. What else dont you understand about this? Someone wanted Bai Cuiwei to come in and bring the matter of Qin Mingsong''s concubine into the open. This has happened, and he has to admit it even if he doesn''t admit it! "The deal is done, let''s just leave it like this." The first person Qin Mingsong suspected was Song Jin, but it was not suitable to raise this matter in public, "Weiniang, go and serve tea to Xiu''er first." When a man takes a concubine, he must obtain the consent of his head wife before he can take a concubine. Concubine tea is a ritual. During the process of taking in a concubine, the concubine must kneel down, kowtow and serve tea to the principal wife. After the principal wife drinks the tea, the concubine is officially admitted. Originally, the Qin family''s family background was not so particular. The problem was that Song Xiu had to set rules. Bai Cuiwei''s eyes widened and she looked at Qin Mingsong in disbelief. Qin Mingsong hugged Bai Cuiwei gently and whispered in her ear: "Weiniang said she would give up everything for me. Is it just what she said?" "No, I''m not..." Bai Cuiwei wanted to explain. When she met Qin Mingsong''s cold eyebrows, she couldn''t say no for a moment. She knew he was angry. In the current situation, it would be the best outcome for her to take advantage of the situation and enter the Qin family. So, Bai Cuiwei acquiesced. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The family went into the main room. Song Xiu went to the first place. That slender figure showed a certain aura of going to the battlefield. Turning around, she sat down and said nothing, just looking at Bai Cuiwei with her eyes. Recalling what Song Jin said before, Qin Mingsong paid a matchmaker and secretly went to the government with Bai Cuiwei to register their marriage. If two **** succeed. Then her situation would be awkward. In the past, Song Xiu resented Song Jin every moment, but today was the first time since her rebirth that she was grateful to her. Bai Cuiwei stepped forward and knelt down unwillingly, kowtowing to Song Xiu first, and then Xiao Liu happily brought a bowl of tea. After taking the tea bowl, she held it in both hands and handed it to Song Xiu respectfully, "Madam, please have tea." Song Xiu sat upright, straightening her back. He has a good grasp of the temperament of his wife. The **** knelt down and kowtowed to herself. The previously aggrieved mood suddenly became much more relaxed. Her whole body felt light and airy, as if her life had been sublimated. She inexplicably remembered her own mother who had been her concubine all her life. My aunt passed away many years ago. My mother waited her whole life but never got it straightened out. She was a little hopeful at first, but later she gave up after learning that the concubine could not be straightened according to the laws of this dynasty. Now my aunt has been looking forward to being the real wife for a lifetime, and she has become one! There was no actual feeling before. At this moment, when the concubine kowtows, Song Xiu truly feels the beauty of being a royal wife. From now on, the concubine will have to serve the main wife. Song Xiu looked at Bai Cuiwei thoughtfully. One concubine seemed not enough. Do you want a few more? "Ma''am, please have some tea." Bai Cuiwei''s hands holding the tea passed forward again, her hands trembling slightly. This is not fear, but anger! A village woman actually taught her how to show off? ! I am so angry! Song Xiu raised her chin and glanced at the Qin family present. Her back was straight, and she ignored Qin Mingsong''s warning eyes. Momentum! The momentum of a real wife! Be sure to get it right! Song Xiu slowly reached out to take the tea, then pinched her orchid fingers, slightly opened the lid of the tea bowl, took a small sip gracefully, and then hummed casually. Put the tea bowl aside on the table. Then he took out the embroidered handkerchief and waved it, picked up the corner of the embroidered handkerchief with his orchid fingers, and then lightly printed the corners of his mouth with the embroidered handkerchief. The movements are dignified and elegant. The next step is the highlight, where the main wife gives a warning to the concubine. "Ms. Bai, from now on, when you enter the Qin family, you must abide by the rules of the Qin family. Remember to stay safe and respect yourself. Don''t flirt with others. You must also be filial to your elders and serve your husband and me well. Oh, and you must also take good care of yourself. Spread the branches and leaves of my Qin family as soon as possible..." Song Xiu''s lectures were particularly smooth. He talked for a full quarter of an hour. Not a word has been repeated yet. Bai Cuiwei, who was kneeling on the ground and listening to the instruction, felt deeply humiliated. My knees hurt from kneeling. Its really exhausting both physically and mentally, and it hurts my skin. I wish I could kill Song Xiu immediately! Chapter 154 Bai Cuiwei was humiliated Chapter 154 Bai Cuiwei was humiliated Qin Daya''s eyes lit up as she watched in the corner. She also imitated Song Xiu''s action of shaking the embroidered handkerchief, and whispered, "Auntie, this action is very beautiful..." "She''s only averagely good-looking. My sister-in-law is really good-looking." Sanlang came over and whispered. Qin Daya was confused: "Has my sister-in-law dumped her before? I haven''t seen it." "Sister-in-law is good-looking. Of course she looks even better when she wears an embroidered handkerchief..." "Go! Go! Go!" Qin Daya pushed Sanlang away and continued to stare at Song Xiu, "My aunt is very different today." "What''s different?" We can''t tell what''s different about Song Xiu, but we know it''s a little different. This is very contradictory, but it is true. The moment before Bai Cuiwei wanted to pretend to be faint. "Oh, come on, don''t faint! These are all my old tricks." Song Xiu Shi stood up without even giving any charity to Qin Mingsong from the corner of his eye, "I am just using the rights of a head wife for the first time, so I am inexperienced and have to say a few words. Aunt Bai is about to faint, and my husband is going to accuse me." This wife is deliberately making things difficult for my concubine, why bother?" With another false sigh, Song Xiu continued: "The Qin family is a simple family. Let''s not bring in the back house''s dirty tricks, so as not to affect the family atmosphere." As soon as these words came out. The Qin family all looked at Bai Cuiwei. So this is the back-house method? No wonder it feels weird. Learned a lot! Even Qin Mingsong looked at Bai Cuiwei with doubtful eyes. It seemed as if she was asking if she really wanted to pretend to be faint? Bai Cuiwei was so angry that she almost spat out her silver teeth. She forced herself on her sore and numb legs and finally stood up, but she was shaky. Qin Mingsong went up to support her, "How is Weiniang?" Bai Cuiwei''s eyes were dim with tears, and she shook her head gently. She was so weak but pretended to be strong, which was very pitiful. These are all Song Xiu''s remaining tricks. Therefore, Song Xiu once again saw through Bai Cuiwei''s pretense. Don''t wait for Song Xiu to expose it again. At this time, a little girl came in from outside the house. The little girl came straight to Song Xiu, handed her a gift box, and said with a childish voice, "This is a gift specially given to you by my lady. I say congratulations to the fourth house on your happy birthday today." Song Xiu knew who the little girl was. Isn''t it Xiaoyu next to Song Jin? Knowing that it was something given to him by Song Jin, Song Xiu was not polite and took it to test the weight. It was as light as if it had nothing at all. Song Xiu immediately opened the gift box. There was something wrapped in a piece of silk and satin inside the box. She picked it up and opened it in front of everyone. There were three Geng Tie copies, belonging to Qin Mingsong, Song Xiu and Bai Cuiwei. There is also a gilt-edged marriage certificate and a concubinage certificate. The names on the official marriage certificate were Qin Mingsong and Song Xiu. The concubine acceptance letter is the document that Qin Mingsong accepted Bai Cuiwei as his concubine. It was also through the hands of the matchmaker that he went to the Yamen to register and passed the Minglu. When she saw it clearly, Song Xiu''s eyes widened in an instant, and then she looked at it over and over again with great relief. The **** opens and shuts her mouth just because she is not a concubine! very good! With this concubine agreement, the **** will be a confirmed concubine from now on! Song Xiu smiled broadly, "Xiaoyu went back and told my sister that I liked this gift very much." Xiaoyu nodded obediently, turned around and ran away. "What are you holding?" Qin Mingsong helped Bai Cuiwei out and accidentally glanced at the thing in Song Xiu''s hand. Suddenly, Qin Mingsong''s expression changed drastically, he let go of Bai Cuiwei and strode forward, snatching the marriage certificate from Song Xiu''s hand. A quick glance. Then out of the corner of his eye, he caught another glimpse of another concubine book. "How is it possible? How could this happen..." Qin Mingsong was so angry that his voice became sharper, and the hand holding the marriage certificate trembled with rage. "How is it impossible?" Song Xiu suddenly took away the marriage certificate from his hand, "We are a serious couple, what''s wrong with applying for a new marriage certificate? My sister was kind enough to help her husband get the concubine documents. From now on, Aunt Bai will be a serious concubine." "Ouch!" Bai Cuiwei had no one to support her. He suddenly became unstable and fell to the ground. Then, she held her stomach and looked like she was in pain, "My stomach hurts so much, my child..." When Mrs. Liu saw it, she quickly ordered her daughter-in-law to help her, and shouted to her son: "Go and ask your third uncle to come over. Nothing will happen to my grandson." Xiao Liu and Lin were reluctant. But thinking of the child in Bai Cuiwei''s belly, she still came to help her. Qin Mingsong came to his senses at this time, pushed away Xiao Liu who was trying to help Bai Cuiwei, and immediately picked him up and carried him into the study. Everyone followed to the study room. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The family has not tidied up Bai Cuiwei''s residence and can only temporarily place it in the study. There is a bed in the study room, where Qin Mingsong can take a nap when he is tired from studying. I saw that the Qin family was busy with this. Third uncle came over to check Bai Cuiwei''s pulse. This happened over and over again. Finally, the third uncle said with a straight face: "I''m not good at studying, so there''s no problem. Why don''t you ask Doctor Jing to come over?" Hear this answer. The people in the room had different expressions. What Song Xiu just said came to mind. Is this a common trick used by rich people to pretend to be ill? Song Xiu leaned against the door frame, her face half covered with an embroidered handkerchief, and she smiled sweetly, "Aunt Bai has a delicate body, so everyone should be careful. After all, she doesn''t have the strength to stand still. This fall was also severe. Even my third uncle can''t solve the problem." After speaking, Song Xiu covered her mouth and snickered. He looked really angry. Others couldn''t help but want to laugh, but this scene was really not suitable, so they had to hold it in very hard. On the other hand, the three Qin brothers outside looked at each other. Finally he couldn''t help but grin. It''s the kind of silent laughter. Come on, this person who just entered the door is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Xiao Liu was not angry either, "Uncle, I have a lot of things to do in the kitchen, so I''ll go and do some work first. Call me if you need anything." Turning around, Mrs. Liu picked up Saburo in the corner and cursed with a smile: "You little devil, why are you giggling here? Go and light a fire for me." "Good girl." Xiao Liu and others dispersed. It can be said that everyone in the second and third bedrooms has left. The third uncle carried the medicine box and slowly walked out of the study, sighing and shaking his head. Qin Mingsong sat in front of the bed, looked at the hopeless Bai Cuiwei, and sighed slightly: "Dad, does Doctor Jing still live at Dalang''s place? Do you want to invite him to come and have a look?" "Da Lang is still downstairs, let him call." Everyone in the old house knows that Doctor Jing has been living at Qin Chi''s place since winter. When Qin Mingsong mentioned Qin Chi, he could not help but think of Song Jin and hate her with itch. However, he had the leverage in Song Jin''s hands, so he could only break his teeth and swallow blood. Qin Chi is quite low-key downstairs. This time someone finally noticed him and asked him to go back to his home to ask for Dr. Jing. Qin Chi readily agreed, straightened his sleeves and left immediately, but he couldn''t wait to see the lady who had made his uncle suffer a big loss. Sure enough, if the lady doesn''t take action, it will be fine. Once she does, it will be earth-shattering. Ps: Please vote and praise! (End of this chapter) Chapter 155 My presence will affect other peoples performance Chapter 155 My presence will affect other peoples performance When Qin Chi returned to his small home, he asked Doctor Jing to visit his old house. Of course, he told Doctor Jing that you were welcome. "I just take the consultation fee from Laozhai and treat it as a normal medical visit. If I don''t intentionally raise the price, I can''t suffer a loss." After Doctor Jing left. Qin Chi turned to look at Song Jin who was making calculations at the side. Song Jin needs to go through this year''s accounts. He looked so focused that he didn''t take the things at the old house to heart at all. Qin Chi went over and took the account book away from her hand, "Aren''t you curious about what happened in the old house? The show was very exciting. I thought I would stay and watch." "I''m afraid that my presence may affect other people''s performance." Song Jin''s answer was so fresh that Qin Chi was stunned for a moment, and then couldn''t help laughing. The corner of Qin Chi''s mouth twitched, "My uncle wants to skin you right now." "Then he also needs to be capable." Song Jin is not afraid of Qin Mingsong. Qin Chi pointedly asked again: "Aren''t you worried about his revenge in the future?" "I''m not afraid of him now, let alone in the future. Besides, isn''t there you?" This is Song Jin''s most difficult period. Maybe Qin Mingsong will become more powerful in the future, but she won''t just stand still. Moreover, she believes that her development speed will only be faster than Qin Mingsong. Qin Chi lifted up his clothes happily and sat elegantly on the chair closest to her, "How did the lady write the marriage contract and the concubine contract?" "Qin Mingsong didn''t ask the matchmaker to apply for the marriage certificate. He had to give the matchmaker Bai Cuiwei''s Geng Tie and other certificates, otherwise it really wouldn''t be possible." Song Jin noticed that Qin Chi was very interested in this matter, so he said a few more words. As for the marriage certificate between Song Xiu and Qin Mingsong. This one is simpler. Just ask Old Li Tou to help send Song Xiu''s Geng Tie to the town, and then ask Xing Lun to take the matchmaker to handle it. Naturally, the matchmaker was not the one Qin Mingsong hired. It''s the kind that Xing Lun asked someone to hire, and it''s cheap and can be fed to the dog. Qin Chi knew the whole story and said with a smile: "When you took away Song Xiu''s Geng Tie, did you have this plan in mind?" "certainly." Song Jin had already had this idea. In fact, even if Qin Chi didn''t mention going to his old house at that time, she would go there. It happened that Qin Chi mentioned it first, so she just followed the trend. "Hey, Erlang is here." Mrs. Huang''s voice sounded outside. Erlang asked politely: "Aunt Huang, where is my eldest brother?" Mrs. Huang answered truthfully and learned that Qin Chi was in the study. Soon Erlang came to the room. It was broad daylight and the study door was open. Erlang put his head out and called, "Brother?" Qin Chi sat leisurely and did not get up. He just faced the door and said, "Come in and talk." Erlang walked into the study room with a smile on his face, his eyes scanning the books on the big bookshelf beside the wall, and then looking at Song Jin sitting in front of the desk and the pile of account books on the table. "Sister-in-law is settling accounts? Do you want my help?" Erlang is a very steady and simple boy, who usually looks shy and seldom talks, but he is the one Qin Chi often asks about what is going on at the old house. Song Jin can be seen from this point. This is a young boy who is as careful as his hair. Song Jin pointed to a pile of untouched ledgers among them, "Help me try to calculate these. If you do well, I will calculate your wages for you." Erlang''s eyes suddenly shone brightly, and then he nodded shyly, happily moved the pile of account books to another small table, and began to count. Look at this skilled behavior, it doesn''t look like you have never done it before. Song Jin turned to Qin Chi, "Have you taught Erlang before?" "There is no hope for the imperial examination, but arithmetic is acceptable." The children Qin Chi has carefully taught will naturally be good. "You poached my people, won''t you give me some compensation?" "This reminds me." She didn''t think much about it at first, but Qin Chi mentioned it, which made her think a lot. There was Jin Long at the county drugstore, but it seemed okay. Yinlong is also in charge of the pharmacy. Yinlong focused on preparing medicinal materials, and the account books were a little sloppy. It shouldn''t be a problem to ask Erlang to go to the pharmacy to help manage the small accounts, but what happened in the pharmacy should not be disclosed to the outside world. Let''s wait and see for now and see how he calculates the accounts later. Erlang, who was forgetting to check the accounts, momentarily forgot the purpose of coming here. When Sanlang was sent over, he saw him clicking the beads in his abacus. "Second brother, why are you settling accounts? Have you forgotten why grandma asked you to come here? You haven''t been back for a long time, and grandma asked me to come see you again. Why?" Sanlang finished his words in one breath with a crackling mouth. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Erlang suddenly remembered the purpose of coming to see his eldest brother, and immediately said in annoyance: "This, I forgot this!" "What did grandma ask you to do?" Song Jin listened to the whole process. Sanlang immediately said something to the effect, to the effect that after Doctor Jing took Bai Cuiwei''s pulse, he said that the fetus was fine and there was no need to take medicine. But Bai Cuiwei insisted that she had abdominal pain, and said that she had experienced fetal contractions twice before. Doctor Jing then prescribed a dose of miscarriage medicine. But when the medicine is prescribed, you have to take it. Not wanting to go to the town pharmacy to get medicine, the people in the old house thought of Song Jin. Song Jin does have household medicinal materials available all year round. However, why should she suffer? Song Jin asked: "Where is the prescription?" Erlang searched for it on his body and found one. After Song Jin read it once, he said, "Sanlang, remember to ask your uncle for one tael of silver. Think of it as the New Year''s money I gave you in advance." "Really, really?" Saburo blinked his eyes with excitement. Song Jin nodded with a smile, turned around and went to the medicine room at home. After a while, he wrapped a small bag of medicinal materials in yellow paper and handed it to Sanlang, "Take it back, and your brother will stay. He will stay with me for dinner tonight." " Saburo responded happily and ran away with the medicine bag. Qin Chi joked: "I came here to use your medicinal materials to save money, so I won''t give you any money." "So, I asked Saburo to give me a try." Song Jin sat back in front of the original desk, glanced at Erlang, and got back to work when he saw the boy. A twelve-year-old boy. It''s nice to be able to sit so well. In his previous life, he was silently behind his back, so Mr. Qin''s mouth was not beaten to death. "Are you all here? I heard that the old house is very lively today." Mrs. Li came over with a baby in her arms just at this time. Mrs. Huang held the other one. Xiaoyu was followed behind. Qin Chi stood up and stepped forward to take the child from Li''s arms, "Why did you bring the child here?" "Niuniu is looking for her mother." Mrs. Li pointed to her little granddaughter who was crying. Only then did Qin Chi notice that his daughter''s big eyes were moist, she had obviously just cried, and he carried her towards Song Jin. Song Jin looked at the little girl with gentle eyebrows. Wearing a red coat embroidered with gold thread and a soft white cape, the tassel hanging from the tip of the hat swings lively. A small face with a slight blush, eyelashes like fans, and a pair of big moist eyes. After seeing Song Jin, they immediately shone with joy. (End of chapter) Chapter 156 Calm and calm Chapter 156 Calm and Calm Milkman was dancing and babbling, his little hands were still open, and his little body was about to lean towards Song Jin. This is for a hug from my mother. Song Jin took the daughter from Qin Chi''s hand. Qin Chi gently scratched the tip of the little girl''s nose with his fingers, and said with a smile: "You are so heartless, can''t you do it even if you have a father? You have to find a mother." "Giggle." Niuniu giggled happily. Song Jin was just trying to tease his daughter when he found another small breast dumpling at his feet. He lowered his head and said, "Hey, tigers can crawl, and they can crawl so fast?" "Yeah." The tiger wants to climb on Song Jin. Naituanzi will have two small dimples when he smiles. He has just learned to crawl and is very active. Qin Chi joked: "This kid is very talented." "People say he has a temper like his grandfather." Li Shi smiled and lifted Huzi up, and also stuffed it into Song Jin''s arms, "Don''t favor one over the other, come and hug everyone." Song Jin held the two breast dumplings, one on the left and the other on the right. It was nothing at first, but soon you pushed me and I pushed you. It seems like they are fighting for territory. When the adults saw it, they burst into laughter. The little family is having fun here. The atmosphere at the old house was not so good. Saburo took the medicine bag back and ran directly to find his uncle. Qin Mingsong was very surprised to see him coming here, "What''s wrong with Sanlang?" "Brother-in-law, it''s one tael of silver per package of medicine. I saw the prescription. There are some expensive medicinal materials on it." Saburo didn''t say much, but his face clearly said he wanted money. No matter how thick-skinned Qin Mingsong is, he is embarrassed not to give it. Take out one tael of silver and give it to Saburo. Sanlang was so happy that he successfully got the money. He stuffed the medicine package into Qin Mingsong''s hand, then turned around and ran away. While running, he did not forget to tell him, "Uncle, the medicine needs three bowls of water to make one bowl. I won''t be here tonight." Im going to eat at my eldest brothers house. Wait for Saburo to run downstairs. Then he shouted towards the kitchen, "Mom! Second brother and I are having dinner at eldest brother''s house tonight. You and third aunt don''t have to cook for us." "You are seeking death, what are you yelling about?" Old Mrs. Liu came out holding an insole and was about to beat the person, "Gun, gon, gon, get out of here. It''s better if you don''t eat at home, and you can save food." When Xiao Liu came out of the kitchen, Sanlang was no longer around, "Didn''t you say you were going to get some medicine?" Just then Qin Mingsong came over and said, "Second sister-in-law, please help me make some medicine." "Okay." Xiao Liu took the medicine bag with a smile, "When will my uncle come back after buying some servants? The child''s grandparents are waiting for someone to take care of him." Qin Mingsong''s face almost collapsed, "We just built a house, and if we don''t have enough money, let''s talk about it later." Xiao Liu went into the kitchen indifferently. Qin Mingsong originally wanted to go to the study to accompany Bai Cuiwei, but instead went to find Old Man Qin. Old man Qin looked at his frowning son. "What''s wrong with Si''er?" "Dad, my second sister-in-law reminded me just now that I should buy someone to serve you and my mother, but building a house has already spent all my savings." Qin Mingsong was vaguely aware that something was wrong with his condition. I have almost all the money I have, so what will I use to attend the Spring Festival in Beijing next year? Immediately, Qin Mingsong said sadly: "Since I passed the exam, I don''t know what went wrong. I can''t calm down to study." Old Qin''s turbid eyes narrowed slightly, "Da Lang said that you lost your original intention after you passed the exam. I don''t quite understand what it means, but I think you are a bit like a poor man suddenly getting rich, and you don''t know how high the world is. If you keep doing this If we go down, we might as well continue to stay in Qinjiagou to avoid causing big trouble outside and affecting the whole family. " Qin Mingsong almost collapsed after hearing this, "Dad! There is no son!" "Probably not." Old Qin didn''t seem to want to argue with him, "Maybe I saw it wrong." Qin Mingsong originally wanted to come to his father to complain. After receiving his financial support, he unexpectedly got a scolding from Old Man Qin. For now, Qin Mingsong has maintained his external image and reputation quite well. After passing the exam, he still kept a low profile in his studies, especially since his family declined a large gift for him last time. He occasionally went out to socialize with people, and others'' attitudes towards him became much better. Being smart, he naturally realized the benefits. But I don''t know why. Although he was a prosperous person outside, he was always short of breath when he came home and could not show any dignity. Even the juniors'' respect for him is only superficial. The gap in this stock is huge. Old Man Qin said again: "Si''er, Bai Daru is not in a hurry. It won''t be too late to wait for you to win the Jinshi. This year, in the name of his student, just give him a new year''s gift." "Listen to dad." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Mingsong lowered his head and said in shame, "Does dad have any money? My son is short of money." Old Man Qin looked at him deeply. Then he stood up and went into the inner room, took out a one hundred tael silver note and handed it to Qin Mingsong. Qin Mingsong put the banknote in his sleeve pocket and said, "Thank you very much, Dad. I will return double the amount when I am free in the future." Old Man Qin waved his hand to indicate that he could leave. Qin Mingsong stood up and bowed to leave. As he walked, he recalled everything that happened during this period. The more he thought about it, the colder his hands and feet became. Always cautious, he made a fatal mistake, which was to underestimate others. When he heard his father say that Song Xiu was just a business girl, he despised her. In addition, Qin Chi was right in what he said. Just two women made him anxious. If you can''t handle this matter well, how can you still hang out in the officialdom in the future? That night Qin Mingsong returned to his dormitory. On the first night after Bai Cuiwei was carried into Qin''s house, he stayed in Song Xiu''s house. Outsiders didn''t know what Qin Mingsong did, but Song Xiu didn''t bother Bai Cuiwei in the next few days. Instead, Rouzhu came to the door carrying the things Bai Cuiwei left in another courtyard. So someone took over to take care of Bai Cuiwei. The village had been hotly discussing Qin Mingsong''s taking a concubine for several days, but Bai Cuiwei lived in seclusion and could not be seen by outsiders. Later, no one talked about it. Song Jin was surprised at how quiet the old house was. On New Year''s Eve, we had New Year''s Eve dinner. The whole family was at the old house, and Old Man Qin also said that Song Jin and Qin Chi would stay at the old house to keep vigil. Song Jin did not refuse. Therefore, seeing Song Xiu and Bai Cuiwei coexisting peacefully, it was a pity that the maid Rouzhu was obviously haggard. Song Jin sat next to Qin Chi and whispered: "I thought the old house would be lively for a few days, but didn''t expect this?" "It''s not surprising. If two women can''t balance each other, then he''s not a brother-in-law." Qin Chi knew what his uncle was capable of. He may be caught off guard at first, but when he recovers, he will definitely find a way to balance the two sides to avoid causing trouble and affecting his future. This years Qin familys Chinese New Year is even more prosperous than last year. Because Qin Mingsong passed the imperial examination, many more people gave New Year''s gifts to the Qin family. If you are polite, you should return the favor. The return gift should not be lighter than others. After going back and forth, I also filled in a sum of money. Chapter 157 Going to Beijing to take the exam Chapter 157 Going to Beijing to take the exam The Qin family has had a good year this year. This was unimaginable in previous years. The family was beaming with joy. Saburo, wearing new clothes, came to Qin Chi with a rice cake in his mouth and whispered: "Brother, can my uncle win the Jinshi?" "Do you want him to win or not?" Qin Chi asked funnyly. Sanlang thought carefully and then nodded, "Think about it! If we win, our family will be better off." Qin Chi responded: "That''s right." Song Jin couldn''t help but raise his eyebrows when he heard the two talking. There was no such good thing in the previous life. In this life, Dafang has lived a good life, and she and Qin Chi have hindered and contributed to the situation. After Qin Mingsong won the election, he had to benefit his family for the sake of his reputation. In the previous life, the second and third houses were divided, and each received only twenty acres of land and one hundred taels. On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Qin Chi took advantage of the opportunity to offer incense and pray for blessings. Dafang and his family went to Ciguang Temple to offer incense and stay there for three to five days. In fact, he just wanted to see Helian Pu. When I returned to Qinjiagou, I didn''t expect that the house was very lively. Qin Mingsong packed his suitcase and went to Beijing to take the exam. He still needed someone to accompany him to do some chores for him. Old man Qin originally wanted his boss to accompany him to Beijing. But before the elder family returned from going to the temple to pray for blessings, they wanted the second or third child to follow them. After careful consideration, this errand fell on Mr. Qin. Accompanying her was unavoidable, and she had to pay for food and lodging, but Mrs. Liu actually only gave her one tael of silver, saying it was not enough for a second room. Qin Laoer laughed angrily, "Fourth brother, this time it''s the second brother who can''t help you. Please ask your mother to buy you a follower." "Second brother, let me talk to mother first." Qin Mingsong also disagreed with Old Liu''s approach. He made such a fuss just before departure, which would have upset anyone. He turned to Old Liu and said, "Mom, you must cause trouble for your son to take the exam." Old Liu was very insistent on this matter, "Si''er, mother has done the math, one tael of silver is enough. I am going to take the exam this time. It takes two months to go back and forth. One penny can buy two steamed buns for him to eat in one day." Six steamed buns dont cost two hundred cents for two months. Besides, staying at Datongpu inn only costs four cents a night. According to my calculation, I still have one tael left over for a round trip. Old Liu was really calculating his budget carefully, and continued: "It''s really not enough. He is rough-skinned and thick-skinned. He sleeps on a carriage, and he can save four cents a day in accommodation expenses." Qin Chi and Song Jin came over just in time to hear the old Liu settling accounts. Song Jin''s mentality was inexplicable. On the contrary, Qin Chi was a little amused and couldn''t help but said: "Grandma, where do you want to put my uncle in this way? You know, last time my uncle just went to the provincial capital to take the provincial examination and asked for fifty taels. Now I think I will need more money this time." "If grandma calculates it this way, it won''t cost a tael for my uncle to come back." Song Jin continued half-jokingly. Old Liu retorted, "Of course the fourth child is different. How can the second child be compared with the fourth child." "It''s incomparable. One is in the glory of the moon, and the other is eating bran-thick vegetables." Song Jin''s voice was soft and not anxious, which made the person involved feel irritable. From Huizhou to the capital to take the exam. Taking the waterway is more time-consuming, taking three or four months, while taking the official road takes about 19 days. Sometimes calculation is one thing and implementation is another. At this time, the steamed buns sold outside, the kind that cost two for a penny, were not pure white flour, but also mixed with other whole grains. They were not delicious and could only be used to satisfy hunger. No one can stand it, not only rushing on the road, but also eating steamed buns every day. No wonder Qin Laoer wasn''t happy to go. Old Man Qin looked at Old Liu with a warning look, "Go get another two taels of silver and give it to the second brother." "Dad, I don''t want to go." Qin Laoer was heartbroken. In the eyes of his parents, he was only suitable to be a cow or a horse, and no amount of money could offset his mother''s contemptuous attitude. Old Qin had no choice but to tell Boss Qin: "Then let me go with Si''er." Boss Qin has always been filial. After a long silence, he nodded. Li didn''t say anything, just carried her grandson back to the room. Qin Chi and Song Jin looked at each other. I regret it, I should have stayed in the temple for one more day. In the end, Qin Chi felt uneasy and asked Lao Huo to stay with his father and go to Beijing with him. Lao Huo was so idle during this period that he almost grew hairy, so he immediately agreed. When Qin Mingsong set out, he was surprised to see a big man with a knife at the door. "Brother, who is this?" "Don''t worry, Dalang. Please come and **** us." Boss Qin smiled honestly. Qin Mingsong had no doubts. When a child goes to Beijing to take the exam, those who are qualified will ask an **** to **** them. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The carriage set off and the Qin family went all the way to the entrance of the village. At the entrance of the village, there were also the village chief, clan chief and a group of villagers, and some people made some food for Qin Mingsong to see him off. Qin Chi and Song Jin also came to the entrance of the village. In the name of seeing off Qin Mingsong, I actually came to see off Boss Qin. Song Jin handed a big baggage to Boss Qin, "Mom prepared this for dad. Please take good care of yourself on the way and don''t let her worry." "Your mother didn''t come?" Boss Qin looked left and right, a little disappointed when he didn''t see his wife. Qin Chi didn''t even look at this father, "I can''t bear to leave my mother, why should I accept it again?" "If I don''t go, won''t it fall on your two uncles in the end?" Boss Qin didn''t cover up when facing his son. Everyone knows this is hard work. Boss Qin didn''t want his two younger brothers to be in trouble, so when Old Qin asked, he agreed. "You have to take good care of your mother at home. I will be back in two months at most." Boss Qin had calculated that this trip would only take two months. After this trip, I have gained experience, and I will not be blinded if I send my son to take the imperial examination in the future. Qin Chi''s eyes fell on Lao Huo. Lao Huo patted his chest and silently promised that he would protect Boss Qin. The eyes of the two people were very dark, and they were not seen by others. Qin Chi was still worried after all, so he secretly arranged for people to take care of him along the way. Wait for the carriage to disappear around the bend in the road. The people in the village who came to see him off also dispersed. Qin Chi, Old Man Qin, the clan leader and others stood aside and talked. Song Jin originally planned to go back. Song Xiu, who also came out to see someone off, actually followed her this time. "Sister, let''s talk." Song Xiu had not chatted with Song Jin alone since Qin Mingsong took his concubine, and she no longer showed off to her as before. It seemed like he had grown up all of a sudden. But Song Jin knew that a dog couldn''t change its habit of eating shit. Song Jin walked towards Xiaojia step by step. Each step was steady and not too fast. Song Xiu followed suit, "I didn''t thank my sister for helping me last time." "Thank me for giving Qin Mingsong a concubine?" Song Jin looked back at Song Xiu with a half-smile. Song Xiu''s face was distorted for a moment, and then she regained her composure, "There''s nothing we can do about it. I can understand it. I understand that my sister is doing it for me and has good intentions." PS: Prices refer to the Ming Dynasty and are not made up by the author. Chapter 158 Wives and concubines having fun together Chapter 158 Wives and concubines have fun together "But that''s not how you look." Song Jin didn''t know what Qin Mingsong said to this fool behind his back, but he didn''t start a fight, so there must be something wrong. "Tell me, why are you willing to have fun with your wives and concubines?" Damn it, wives and concubines have fun together! Song Xiu almost lost her composure again, "Did you do it on purpose?" "What''s the purpose?" "You deliberately used Bai Cuiwei to disgust me. I should have known how you could be kind." Song Xiu speculated on Song Jin with the greatest malice. Song Jin looked calm and admitted with a smile, "Your guess is not wrong, I did it on purpose." Then Song Jin looked at Song Xiu carefully. I found that this idiot was more radiant than before. This is a good time. Song Jin continued: "You surprised me. You actually accepted Bai Cuiwei sincerely. Didn''t you say before that Qin Mingsong is a farmer''s son. He should be grateful for marrying you. How can he still enjoy the blessings of being together? " Song Xiu felt a little embarrassed when she heard this. Who doesnt know how to say a few words to put gold on his face? In fact, she knew very well in her heart that the status of scholars and businessmen was very different. Qin Mingsong will be her support in the future. Thinking of Qin Mingsong''s kindness to her these days... Song Xiu straightened her back proudly and said ostentatiously: "My husband has promised that no one will be able to surpass me as the head wife in the future. Bai Cuiwei, a young lady from a scholarly family, has to humble herself in front of me and give me a gift." It gives me a very valuable look, I will wear it next time to show it to my sister. You can tell from this tone that Song Xiu is very satisfied. Song Jin understood, his eyes flashed slightly and said: "So, you are not angry that he took a concubine?" "Why should I care about this? If I don''t take concubines now, I will take them in the future. Among those who are officials, there is no one who doesn''t have several concubines. As long as I live a good life, that''s all." Song Xiu accepted concubines well. Not the slightest bit of reluctance. Song Jin could only say that Qin Mingsong was extraordinary. He explained Song Xiu''s mind. However, it also indirectly shows that Song Xiu has feelings for Qin Mingsong but not deeply. Women in this world are very accepting of their husbands having three wives and four concubines. Most of them only exist in ordinary people''s homes. This situation is normal in Song embroidery. Song Jin even thought of her future self. Qin Chi''s status will only be higher than Qin Mingsong''s, and one day in the future, she may have to personally arrange concubinage matters for her husband. Song Jin felt slightly uncomfortable thinking of these. But these are normal. As a wife, you can''t say anything, let alone stop her, otherwise she will be jealous and violate the Seven Outs Rule. Women cannot resist the shackles and constraints placed on them by this world. The only thing they can do is guard their hearts. Just guard your heart. When things happen, you can handle it calmly and impartially. "Sister, did your father secretly leave you manpower and money?" Song Xiu suddenly asked this question. Song Jin was thinking about something, but was brought back from his thoughts by her question, "Who told you that my father had left someone behind for me?" "My husband." The only thing Song Xiu was worried about was what Qin Mingsong said. The family must have left a lot of money and manpower for her eldest sister, but she didn''t know anything about these things. "Father is indeed partial to my sister." Song Xiu glanced sideways at Song Jin, her dissatisfaction revealed, "He only gave me a little money, and nothing else, not even a capable maid." The more he spoke, the angrier he became. Song Jin, on the other hand, was very amused, "So it''s because of this that you''re complaining about me again?" "Shouldn''t I blame you for this? All good things belong to you, I can only pick up what you don''t want." Song Xiu glared at Song Jin. "You''re just a concubine, who gave you face?" Song Jin looked at Song Xiu with sarcasm in his eyes. The aura around him was extraordinary, and the aura displayed instantly shocked Song Xiu. This Qin Mingsong is quite disgusting. A grown man secretly instigated trouble. Everything Song Jin owns now is her own hard work and has little to do with the previous Song family. However, Song Xiu was even more convinced that Song''s father had left manpower for Song Jin. Otherwise, how could we monitor Qin Mingsong and know that he secretly applied for a marriage certificate. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! But after suffering many hidden losses at the hands of Song Jin, he somewhat learned the lesson. Song Xiu rolled her eyes, "Why are you so arrogant, sister? This family changed its family because of my husband. Without my husband, you are just a peasant woman?" Good guy! This completely ignores Qin Chi''s status as a scholar. It was hard to say how long a sick man could live. Song Xiu would never believe that he would have any future. Song Jin''s eyes were sarcastic, "What? You don''t want me to take advantage of it, so if you can, you can separate the family." Song Xiu was so angry that he was determined not to separate the family. Song Xiu turned around and returned home bitterly. Old Mrs. Liu was sitting on a chair in front of the house with an old face. Song Xiu walked over and said softly: "Mother-in-law, I just talked to my sister for a while. Do you know how arrogant she is? After all, this family changed its family because of my husband. She obviously got a big advantage." , you dare to laugh at me after you get the advantage? Doesnt laughing at me mean you are laughing at your husband? Old Liu raised his eyelids, "What do you want to say? Do you want me to treat that sister for you?" "Oh, it''s nothing. It''s just that people have benefited from my husband in vain, and I''m not grateful. I feel uncomfortable, and I don''t feel worthy for my husband. My husband won''t have to support them for the rest of his life in the future, right?" Before your husband goes to high school, he must first distribute all the burdens at home. Don''t let Song Jin take advantage of it. This was Song Xiu''s only thought. After a pause, Song Xiu said angrily: "Do you know what my sister just said? She said that if I have the ability, we will separate the family? She is just determined that the family will not be separated, so she dares to be so arrogant. I am really angry. ! Old Liu looked at Song Xiu suspiciously, "I don''t believe what you say." "It''s true!" Song Xiu was angry at Old Liu''s lack of understanding, but she said in a nice voice, "If mother-in-law divides the family, I will give you this number again." After speaking, she extended an index finger. "Didn''t you run out of money a long time ago?" Greed flashed in Old Liu''s eyes. The thousand taels I got from Song Xiu last time had already been taken away by Old Man Qin. This time Qin Mingsong went to Beijing to take the exam and almost wiped out her savings. Song Xiu did not answer Old Liu, but asked: "Will my mother-in-law agree or not? I am doing this for the sake of my husband. Let us divide the family while my husband is away, and no one else can take the blame for the division." Its also good for the husbands reputation. After saying this, Old Liu was moved, but he shook his head again after a while, "The old man will not agree." "It''s up to you to convince father-in-law." Song Xiu hung a thousand taels in front of him, but he didn''t believe that Mr. Liu was not doing his best. Chapter 159 Prelude to separation Chapter 159 Prelude to the separation Old Liu went to see Old Man Qin. After trying to persuade Old Man Qin to separate the family, he tried to persuade Old Man Qin to split up the family, but he gave him a big slap in the face, and Old Liu immediately betrayed Song Xiu. "One thousand taels?" Old Qin''s eyes moved slightly, then he shook his head and said, "No, don''t even think about separating the family." "Without the burden, Si''er will only develop better. Then we will enjoy the blessings and get a thousand taels. Why are you hesitating about such a good thing?" "The family is going to be separated, and you and I will also follow the eldest brother." Old Qin scolded. Old Mrs. Liu was unhappy, "I still have to rely on my fourth son to be my wife, so I won''t go with my eldest son." Old Qin couldn''t make a decision for a while. Old Mrs. Liu said angrily: "Damn it, old man, mother-in-law, mother-in-law, do you still want to live a good life?!" "You know nothing! The family is divided, the big house is fine, but what about the second and third sons'' families? You don''t know how heavy the corvee and taxes are. You just want to live a good life, no matter whether the two sons live or die." Abandoning his son just after he had a good life was such an immoral thing that Old Qin dared not even think about but did it. Otherwise, someone will definitely poke you in the back. Old Liu, however, disagreed and said, "I could get by before, why can''t I get by now?" "Don''t think about it, I don''t agree." Old Man Qin knows this, and he can''t do it. He believed that as long as he did not mention the separation of the family, his sons and grandchildren would never dare to mention it, otherwise they would be known as unfilial and would be sent to the Yamen and given dozens or hundreds of sticks. Old Mrs. Liu said anxiously: "It''s enough to divide the eldest house. The second and third sons will separate their families first and not the households. According to the fourth daughter-in-law, she just doesn''t want to take advantage of the eldest house." "How can there be such a separation of families? It''s just nonsense!" Old man Qin can only say that this old guy really dares to think. Where can we buy a big house after dividing the family like this? What would others say about Dafang? According to the rules of the clan, the eldest son needs to bear various responsibilities such as offering sacrifices to ancestors, and will occupy half or 70% of the property. If Dafang made no mistake, Du Du would separate Dafang, and even if he dared to agree, the clan would not agree. No matter how old Liu tried to persuade him, Old Qin didn''t agree. This made old Liu anxious. We can only go out and talk to Song Xiu. "Why don''t you want your father-in-law?" Song Xiu was extremely irritated. Old Liu opened his eyes and told lies, "Maybe it''s because we don''t have enough money?" "One thousand taels is not enough?" Song Xiu knew that this old guy was getting more and more greedy, "There''s only so much, it''s up to you to do it or not." "If people are divided like this, he is afraid of being stabbed in the back." Old Liu tried to get Song Xiu to add more money, "You can add a thousand more, but don''t tell anyone. I won''t help you because of my reputation." Song Xiu glanced at her sideways, "You think I''m stupid, as long as you and your father-in-law propose to separate the family, no one will talk nonsense." She has a limited amount of money hidden away and doesnt want to add more. Annoyed, she left Old Liu and ran to Song Jin''s house. Seeing Song Jinyou Zaiyouzai, jealousy flashed in Song Xiu''s eyes, "Sister, your life is good." "Thanks to my uncle''s blessing." Song Jin''s words, "There is a needle hidden in the cotton," made Song Xiu very angry. Song Xiu regretted coming here, but she still held back her temper and asked with a smile: "Sister, don''t you want to separate the family? If we separate, you can be the master of the family. Give me two thousand silver..." "No distinction!" Song Jin thought one thing in his heart, but what he said out of his mouth was another thing, "Even if we separate the family, I am still independent of the small family. What good will it do to me if the family is separated? The eldest brother still hopes that his uncle will become an official. Live a prosperous life with him. "Don''t even think about it!" Song Xiu was angry. Song Jin smiled and said, "It''s not your turn to say no. We''re all one family, so what''s the point of getting some light? Don''t be so stingy." The more he said this, the more Song Xiu wanted to give out the big room. No one should take advantage of it but Song Jin! Want to sit back and enjoy the benefits? Don''t even think about it! None of them were easy to deal with, especially Song Jin and Qin Chi, as if they were born to oppose her. But she was furious. As long as the family is divided, in the future the big house will support two elderly people, and the fourth house will be left to her, Song Xiulai, to take charge of the house. Thinking about the future makes her feel extremely comfortable. After Song Xiu left. Qin Chi turned around and came out from the side door and said with a smile: "Is the lady setting a condom on Song Xiu?" "Not really, I just want to watch Song Xiu jump up and down." Song Jin said without covering up. Qin Chi asked with a smile: "Do you think it is better to separate the families or not separate the families?" "Do you want to hear the truth?" Song Jin glanced at him and asked. "think!" Qin Chi nodded, "I want to hear what the lady has to say." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Me, I want to separate but don''t want to. For example, in these ten miles and eighty villages, let alone the fact that the parents are still together, there are a few special cases where the parents live with the eldest son. I didn''t think about it carefully before. I think it''s better not to separate in the future, mainly because now I have a small family and live a very comfortable life..." If the family is separated, they will still have to live with the two elders. Old Qin has nothing. Living with old Liu will cost at least several years of his life. Qin Chi smiled, "Grandpa will not easily agree to split up the family." "I know that." Song Jin didn''t say that Song Xiu seemed to want to use money to clear the way. Then Qin Chi added: "Even if the family is separated, grandma will not live with us. She still wants to rely on her son to get her royal life." Only the wives and mothers of officials could be named Imperial Madams. Qin Chi was just a grandson. No matter how high-ranking an official he was, he would never be named the old Liu family. Song Jin glanced at Qin Chi sympathetically, "If this is really the case, then Da Fang will be embarrassed." "It doesn''t matter. My body is weak and the whole clan knows about it." Qin Chi said matter-of-factly. Hearing this, Song Jin understood. After thinking about it for a few more days. Neither of them expected that Song Xiu''s hard work would actually yield results. Another day. Old man Qin informed Qin Chi to go to his old house and said he had something important to discuss. When he passed by, Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San were already in the main room. Wait for Qin Chi to sit down. Old Man Qin said, "I want to divide this family. What do you think?" "Dad, I don''t" Qin Laoer was about to stand up excitedly. As a result, Qin Laosan was asked to hold on, "Second brother, don''t be impulsive. Listen to what dad says first." Qin Chi was surprised. I didn''t expect that Old Man Qin would really propose to separate the family. Old Man Qin glanced at the two brothers and said, "What I mean is that we can separate families but not households, so that we can avoid corvee labor and taxes. As for how we can live, it all depends on each person''s ability." Qin Laoer stopped talking now. The two of them subconsciously looked at Qin Chi, who was silent. Qin Chi pondered for a moment and said, "Will grandfather and grandma follow the big house?" "Your grandma insists on staying with the fourth room." Old Man Qin put the blame on Old Liu. Seeing that the three of them were silent, he continued, "We are just discussing today. If you have any opinions, please bring them up." Qin Chi said hesitantly: "Why don''t we wait until my father and uncle come back?" "For such a big thing as a family separation, I also think it would be better to wait for eldest brother and the others to come back." Qin Laosan finally spoke. Qin Laoer also nodded in agreement. Chapter 160 The old Liu family split up because of his mischief Chapter 160 The old Liu family broke up because of his mischief Old Man Qin had been talking for so long, but he only talked about dividing the family, and did not mention how to divide the family property. Qin Chi noticed that someone was eavesdropping. I accidentally caught a glimpse of the toe of Old Liu''s shoe exposed under the door curtain in the inner room. Old Liu had been eavesdropping. When he heard that they had to wait until everyone was gathered before discussing, Song Xiu suddenly became anxious. However, Song Xiu said that the family should be separated now so as not to damage Si''er''s reputation, so she couldn''t help but ran out. "Wait a minute! What are you waiting for? We are the elders, can''t we still make the decision?" Old Liu came out and stared at Qin Chi and the others as if he had a deep hatred. Destroying someone''s wealth is like killing one''s parents. At the beginning, Mrs. Liu was able to sell Qin Chi for a thousand taels. This shows that if someone gives her money, she will not hesitate to sell Qin Chi again. "Grandpa, grandma." Qin Chi said with a gentle face, "I don''t want to separate the family. The family is very good now. If the family is separated, people''s hearts will be scattered." "Of course you are fine! Everyone wants to **** blood from Si''er. My Si''er has been unlucky for eight lifetimes to have relatives like you." Old Mrs. Liu pointed at Qin Chi''s nose and cursed, "I think you just can''t bear the benefits of being around Si''er. Today, you can get it even if you don''t want to. I also want to divide the big house into households. I don''t dare to have such a grandson." "Mom! That''s enough!" "Why is Dalang bothering you? He scolded you so viciously for no reason." Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San couldn''t stand it anymore, so they all stood up to stop Old Liu. Mr. Liu used to have a certain temper in being unreasonable and making trouble. This time it''s too much! Qin Laosan asked with a gloomy face: "Da Lang just said that he didn''t want to separate the family. Is this wrong? When my mother''s words spread out, do I still want Da Lang''s future?" "That''s right! Don''t you know what you can and can''t say? Mother doesn''t know?" Qin Laoer was also very angry. Mrs. Liu was very embarrassed after being accused by her son, "You guys, you are rebelling against me. How dare you accuse me? You are indeed unfilial. I will beat you two **** to death -" "Grandma!" Qin Chi stood in front of the two uncles. Then he said to Old Qin, who was sitting in the first place: "Grandpa, won''t you stop Grandma a little?" "Ms. Liu!" Old Qin glared at Old Liu, "Stop messing around with me." In the past, Mr. Liu would be afraid of Mr. Qin. Today she seems to be particularly stubborn, "I must separate the families! Not dividing them is unfilial. If they make me angry, I will go to the Yamen and sue them, and the officials will slap them." "I''ve raised them so much, do I still want to raise them for the rest of my life?" "They just want to share the family and enjoy happiness, but they are not happy. What are these unfilial descendants doing? They just want to be raised by others, and they just want to continue to **** our blood..." Old Mr. Liu was acting irrationally and unreasonably. Anything dirty or smelly was thrown at them. Anyway, she won''t give up until she achieves her goal. Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San were so angry that their veins were bulging. They wanted to say something more, but Qin Chi''s eyes stopped them. When Mrs. Liu saw that no one was paying attention to her, she jumped up and pointed at Qin Chi and scolded her. She picked out the big room one by one and scolded him again and again. Not even the twins were spared. The reason was that the twins didn''t get close to her either. At first, Mrs. Liu was indifferent to her, but after the twins learned to recognize people, they were no longer willing to be hugged by Mrs. Liu. If you hold them forcibly, the twins will burst into tears. Mr. Liu took out all the things he had and scolded them. Anyway, the big house is full of heartless people. Old Qin frowned when he heard this. But in the end there was no stopping it. Qin Chi lowered his head as if ashamed, "What do you think of me?" "How about what? Of course the big house will be given out! You happen to have a house, just move in there, and the old house will not be given to the big house." Old Liu said matter-of-factly. Qin Chi did not refute, waiting for Old Liu to say more. Sure enough, Mrs. Liu continued: "The medicine fields and fields at home will be given to the second and third sons. If the fourth house is not wanted, it will not be given to the eldest house." "There are still family carriages, cattle and sheep, etc., so I will give you a sheep. I will give you ten taels of silver. Don''t be dissatisfied with it. This is something your grandfather and I saved through frugality." This giving tone, this shameless energy. Qin Chi almost laughed angrily. Even Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San were speechless. Little Liu who was eavesdropping outside was surprised. Which **** has Dafang offended? Only then would he be spoiled by Old Liu in this life. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Although ten taels of silver are considered a lot of money to other families in the village. But in today''s Qin family, only ten taels are given when the family is divided, which is almost the same as leaving the house. As for that sheep, who didnt know that it was originally bought by a big house? In order to achieve his goal, Mr. Liu did not care how bad he did. In addition to one thousand taels, Song Xiu also promised to give her two hundred taels as a private house when things were done. She kept the two hundred taels of silver from Old Man Qin. Therefore, all she could think about now was dividing up the family and giving away the big house. Qin Chi''s eyes were slightly red, and he pursed his lips and looked at Old Qin. When he saw that he didn''t express anything, he looked at Old Liu who was staring at him, and slowly lowered his head, "My grandson agreed to what grandma said." , but it must be clearly stated in the family separation letter that the separation is Grandmas intention, not the fault of the elder family. In order to separate the family, Mr. Liu agreed wholeheartedly. Immediately Qin Laoer called Erlang and Sanlang. Let the two of them invite the village chief and clan chief respectively. This family can''t be divided just by hand. It still needs to write down the documents for the separation and have someone to witness it. When the Qin clan leader heard that the Qin family was going to be divided, he hurried over to ask what was going on. He thought it was because his descendants were unfilial. However, when he heard that it was the old Liu family who insisted on dividing the family, he went to the Yamen to sue them. I was so angry that I almost couldn''t breathe! "Qin Shi! Are you in charge of this family, or is it a woman?" Patriarch Qin raised his crutch and was about to beat him. Old Man Qin quickly dodged, "Patriarch, please calm down. This woman is stubborn and unreasonable. What can I do? That''s why I ask you to write in the family separation letter that there is nothing wrong with the big house." "You still have the nerve to say that your conscience has grown crooked at your age!" Patriarch Qin''s finger trembled slightly as he pointed at Old Man Qin. Next, Old Man Qin said a lot of good things. The reason why the two elders did not live with Dafang was that they did not want to drag Dafang down. They also said that Dafang was already in a difficult situation. The family had two sick children who had to take medicine for many years, and now they have two younger children to support. "It''s a hard time for Dafang, so we won''t put more burden on them, and we will live with Si''er from now on." Old Man Qin made a grand statement, but in reality he was the same as Old Liu. Song Jin happened to hear this when he came to the old house. Mrs. Li also came. For such an important matter as family separation, one must always show one''s face. Patriarch Qin looked at the man who looked honest on the outside but was hiding a traitor on the inside. To be honest, he was mistaken. It''s a lie to say that it won''t drag down the big house. In the end, only ten taels of silver were given to the big house. Is this ridiculous? Just at this time the village chief came over, and Chief Qin couldn''t say anything more to avoid making outsiders laugh. (End of chapter) Chapter 161 The division is quite ridiculous Chapter 161 The division is quite ridiculous Village Chief Chen came to understand the situation. I was very surprised to hear that they were separated. Hearing that there would be no household separation for the time being, he became somewhat clear. Then he heard that the big house would be separated into separate households. Village Chief Chen just thought this was ridiculous. When he heard about the distribution of family wealth, Village Chief Chen became numb. This is bullying an honest person. Its no secret in the village that Boss Qin doesnt want Madam Liu to see her. The reason is that he insisted on marrying a sick daughter-in-law, and then gave birth to a sick daughter-in-law. She had to take medicine for many years, which cost the family a lot of money. . Any head of the family would be upset. No one said anything about Mrs. Liu. At most, say something cool. But now that the family is separated like this, aren''t you afraid of jokes if word spreads about it? Qin Chi saw the expression on Village Chief Chen''s face and sighed vaguely, "Clan Chief, Village Chief, please add another sentence to the family separation letter. It was my father who cared about the deep brotherhood and voluntarily gave up the family property." Otherwise, is it said that the two elders separated and deliberately treated the eldest son harshly? That really became a joke. Patriarch Qin glanced at Qin Chi appreciatively and said, "I pray this is a great kindness." "The patriarch is overly praised." Qin Chi smiled modestly. In this way, no one will be able to fault Dafang in the future. Among the Qin clan chief and the village chief, their favorable impression of Qin Chi is slowly rising. After being treated unfairly, he never felt resentful and even took the initiative to cover up for his elders. He was an honest and filial child. Then Patriarch Qin asked about the old man''s support. Old Man Qin knew that he was in the wrong, so he said: "From now on, my wife and I will be raised by our fourth son. The other three families do not need to pay filial piety. Just bring some gifts to visit us during the holidays and show your filial piety." "Not completely confused yet." Patriarch Qin personally wrote the family separation document. It states that the separation of the family was proposed by the two elders, and the descendants are not at fault. It is further pointed out that the fourth son is a raised son, and the two elders voluntarily return to the fourth house to support him, and there is no need for the other three sons to submit filial piety money. Later, it was written that the eldest son was pure and filial, his brothers and brothers were respectful, he voluntarily gave up the family wealth, and only took ten taels of household expenses, etc. In fact, Qin Chi didn''t really want those ten taels of silver. But if he didn''t do it, it would seem like a slap in the face of the second elder, and it would also make people think that he was dissatisfied with the separation of the family, so he simply didn''t mention it. The family documents are written in equal parts. Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San almost wanted to split their households, but Qin Chi stopped them. The reason why the big house is divided into households is because Qin Chi himself is a scholar. Whether it is in Qin Mingsong''s name or not has little impact. On the contrary, it is irrational for the two uncles to divide their households at this time. The heavy taxes are enough to crush a small family. Qin Chi whispered: "When the family has enough money, there is no need to worry about taxes. It will not be too late to divide it." "Listen to Da Lang." Qin Laosan was the first to decide. Qin Laoer thought about it and it was right. He couldn''t be angry for a while. He still had a wife and children to support in the future. No one made any fuss about the separation process, it was incredibly smooth. As long as the village chief goes to the Yamen to give the big house an independent household, the separation will be completed. Song Jin watched the whole process quietly. The corners of Song Xiu''s mouth turned up, as if he had won a battle. "Oh, what a good thing this is. From now on, I won''t be able to get the spotlight from the fourth house." Song Xiu came to Song Jin specifically to sarcastically say. Song Jin took a deep look at Song Xiu and said, "In this world, only oneself is the most reliable. Because the mountains that support you can fall, and everyone who relies on you can run away." "Just be tough." Song Xiu laughed. "It''s really a big loss to Xiu''er this time." When saying this, Song Jin''s tone was particularly gentle, "From now on, my grandma will be taken care of by Xiu''er. I think with Xiu''er''s filial piety, I will take good care of my grandma." Hearing this, Song Xiu''s smile froze. According to the custom of family separation, the old man should live with the eldest son, but two old guys insisted on living with the fourth brother. But as a daughter-in-law, no matter how disgusted I feel, I can''t express it openly. Otherwise it will be regarded as a great unfilial piety. When the two were talking, they didn''t notice that not far behind them, Bai Cuiwei was looking at the two thoughtfully. "Miss, why did the Qin family suddenly separate?" Rouzhu asked softly, standing behind Bai Cuiwei. Bai Cui shook her head slightly, "This has little to do with us." "But in the future, the chewing material at home will be..." Rouzhu was not sure for a moment, so she thought for a while and then said, "The old man and the old lady seem to have been with the fourth house. Who will be in charge of the middle feeder of the fourth house?" "No matter who it is, it won''t be us anyway." Bai Cui turned back to her room with a cold face. This room is not big, and it was tidied up on purpose. There is also a small room inside, which is for the maid Rouzhu. My mind, which was dazzled by love and love, has become more sober recently. In fact, she regretted it a little. It''s not that I regretted following Qin Mingsong, but that I shouldn''t have come to Yi County with just a maid, which put me in the embarrassing situation I am in now, and I was forced to become a concubine. Seeing the young lady returning to her room, Rouzhu also wanted to go in. "Rou Zhu!" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Old Liu''s words rang loudly, "Come to the main room quickly." "Hey, old lady, my slave is here!" Rouzhu responded quickly and then said to Bai Cui in the room, "Miss, the old lady has called for the slave again, and the slave has to go and do her work first." "Go." Bai Cui waved her hand numbly. Rouzhu felt bitter in her heart. Life in the Qin family was the hardest she had ever experienced since becoming a maid. Not only do you have to take care of the young lady''s daily life, but you also have to be bossed around by the old lady. A pair of originally delicate hands also became rough. When Song Jin heard Old Liu''s call in the main room, he remembered that there was such a person in the Qin family''s old house. Bai Cuiwei lived as if she were invisible in the Qin family. She rarely stepped out of her room, and even food was brought into the house by the maid. It''s very low-key when I come out occasionally. This is what smart people do. That night the Qin family''s old house cooked a table of dishes. The men in the family drank with Patriarch Qin and the village chief, and the women opened another table. After eating. Song Jin went to the wing with Li. Mainly to help Li pack the boxes and cages. Li Shi stuffed the ten taels of housing allowance given by Qin Chi into a makeup box and said half-jokingly: "These ten taels of silver are worth looking at." "Ha, Mom, don''t get into trouble with Yinzi. Yinzi is not wrong." Song Jin also said jokingly. Ms. Li said with a gentle look on her face, "You are right, the money is right, but the people are wrong." "Second uncle and third uncle are also twelve liang?" Song Jin didn''t pay attention just now. Li''s face showed sarcasm, "Will those two people still give them an advantage? It''s the same, it''s all ten taels." This family separation is quite ridiculous to be honest. There is no preference for larger houses, nor is it divided equally. The families are divided completely according to the preferences of the elders. Mrs. Li put the things in the box and cage, "How about waiting until tomorrow to move it?" "It''s still early in the morning, and my husband said he would ask Uncle Li to drive a mule cart over later to carry it." "OK!" The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law began to pack the boxes and cages. Cleaned up for a while. Xiao Liu and Lin came to help. Moving is faster now. One trip by mule cart was all it took. The main large pieces of furniture were not moved away, but were all left in the second and third bedrooms. Chapter 162 Suspected to be an old friend coming Chapter 162 A suspected old friend is coming Li''s steps towards Xiaojia were unprecedentedly relaxed. Song Jin noticed that she was in a good mood. I think so. Living with Mr. Liu will shorten your life by several years. Back to my little home. Song Jin originally wanted to continue helping Li clean up. "You don''t need to come at home. You go and see how Huzi and Niuniu are doing." Mrs. Li urged Song Jin to see her grandson and granddaughter. Song Jin was indeed a little worried, "Then I''ll ask Madam Huang to clean it up for you?" "Okay, okay." Li responded. Song Jin exited the room. The twins have separate rooms. The weather is cold in winter, so they spend most of their time playing in the house. When Song Jin and Li went to the old house before, Xiaoyu took care of them. Song Jin saw Granny Huang and asked her to help Li clean up. After Mrs. Huang agreed, she said respectfully: "Madam, someone just sent you a letter. I put the letter in your bedroom." "Okay, I get it." Song Jin was surprised. Who will deliver the letter to her at this time? Standing on the corridor, I heard giggles coming from the twin room. It was obvious that the children were having a lot of fun. Song Jin originally wanted to go there, but when he heard the letter, he turned back to the dormitory. On the dressing table in the dormitory, there is a letter, which is very conspicuous and can be seen by anyone who comes in. The envelope says personally addressed to Song Jin. This made Song Jin slightly stunned. People from Jifang would not write such a letter to her, let alone write her name directly. He opened the seal of the letter and took out the letter paper inside. The content above is simple. Make an appointment with Song Jin to meet at the Huichun Hall in the town three days later. There is no signature, only a family emblem, which is the totem of the Song family. The totem of the Song family is composed of "" and "ľ". Inherited the family name of "Jianmu Dial". Among them, "wood" represents building wood, while the dot on "t" represents the "navel of the sky", and the covering part of "t" represents the sky, indicating the dial calendar. In addition, because the person with the Song surname was Shang first, and Shang was born from the black bird, the two sides of the totem are represented by the iconic black bird. When Song Jin saw this clan emblem that was so familiar to his bones, Song Jin couldn''t help but feel dazed. This is the hidden power of the family, and someone has found it. No one came looking for her at this time in her previous life. When Qin Chi came in, he happened to see Song Jin standing in front of the dressing table, lost in thought, with a letter in his hand. When Song Jin saw someone, he naturally put the letter away. When Qin Chi approached, she smelled a faint smell of alcohol and asked with concern: "Ms. sir, has he been drinking? Do you want me to make you some sobering soup?" "That''s not necessary. It''s only half a cup." Qin Chi sat down leisurely and looked up at Song Jin with warm and fiery eyes, "Madam, this time it is purely because of your blessing that we can divide the family so neatly." "This is something I didn''t expect either." Song Jin took the warm water from the teapot, poured some onto the washstand, wetted a handkerchief, and handed it to Qin Chi to wipe his face, "My husband was scolded for being wronged today." Qin Chi took it and wiped his face and hands, "You know?" "I heard the second aunt mentioned something." Song Jin replied with a chuckle. "Hahaha" Qin Chi couldn''t help laughing and handed the wet handkerchief back to Song Jin, "Second Auntie doesn''t just say a few words when we chat." Song Jin took the handkerchief. Qin Chi had indeed suffered a grievance. After all, he was pointed at the nose and scolded in various ways. This experience would not be good for anyone, but the result was gratifying. "Do you know, madam, that I have long wanted to separate the family?" Qin Chi didn''t want Li to be wronged, and had long wanted to separate the family, but he couldn''t think of a safe way, "As long as the family can be divided, let alone just get scolded, even if it''s a scolding, Its worth the fight. Song Jin was surprised. Immediately I thought of old Liu''s character and how he had oppressed Li in the past. Besides, Mr. Liu never wanted to see Da Fang. Next two days. The atmosphere at home is very good. The smile on Mrs. Li''s face never stopped, and occasionally she could be heard humming a few melodious tunes. This joyful energy was almost enough to set off firecrackers to celebrate. In the village, because the Qin family was separated, there was more to talk about. There were also aunts, aunts and daughters-in-law who came to visit and talk to Mr. Li from time to time. Li didn''t take it well at first. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Later, I gradually integrated into it, and most of the conversations were about children. Song Jin occasionally listened to it. Today, Xiao Liu also came to talk to Song Jin. Mrs. Li listened with a smile. Little Liu rarely speaks out against Li, or since Song Jin married into the Qin family, she often brought gifts to her and Lin, which made Little Liu like Song Jin from the bottom of her heart. It even pleased me to look at Mr. Li! What a joy! "Four rooms have been very lively these past two days." Xiao Liu chatted with Song Jin in a low voice, then grabbed a handful of walnut kernels on the table and ate them, "Oh, it''s so noisy that we can''t even live in peace." Song Jin pretended to be surprised, "What happened?" "Yesterday, we were fighting over who was in charge of the house early in the morning, and then we started arguing about cooking and housework. Originally, these tasks were done by the maid, but who knew that the maid suddenly fell sick from exhaustion." This was a lot of fun. Song Jin couldn''t imagine Rouzhu falling ill. Who will do the laundry and cooking in the fourth room? It''s impossible for Old Qin. He has never been seen doing housework before, and he has never even washed the dishes. Xiao Liu sneered again: "My mother-in-law has only one mouth left in her body. She is good at making her daughter-in-law work. Let her do the work? It would be better to kill her." "What happens next?" Li Shi smiled and said suddenly. The smile on his face showed that he agreed with Xiao Liu''s words. Xiao Liu wanted to open her mouth to speak, but suddenly realized that it was Li who interrupted, with a sneer on her face, "Sister-in-law, what else can we do? My mother-in-law can let her fourth daughter-in-law do it." "Will she be obedient?" Ms. Li didn''t believe it. Xiao Liu smiled mysteriously and lowered her voice: "Of course I urged the concubine to do it and went to the kitchen with a big belly. What happened? The kitchen almost burned down!" Song Jin and Li were speechless. How to solve it later? Bai Cuiwei paid Qin Laoer to go to the dental shop in the town and bought two servants to take home. This time it finally stopped! Xiao Liu said it vividly, and it is not difficult to imagine the scene of chickens and dogs in the four rooms. The day passed peacefully. The next day, the time agreed in the letter. Song Jin got up early to wash up as usual, went to feed her children, and then told Qin Chi and Li that she was going out. Huichun Tang is a small medical clinic in the town. The medical center is not big and only has one doctor. However, it is quite famous in the town. The main reason is that the prices for medical treatment and medicine are reasonable. Song Jin entered the Huichun Hall. People stood in the lobby. The shopkeeper just glanced at the lower left corner of Song Jin''s clothes. There was a small Song clan emblem on it. He immediately turned around from the counter and respectfully led the person to the tea room at the back. Chapter 163 old friend from past life Chapter 163 An old friend from a previous life Tea room for entertaining guests. The shopkeeper asked Song Jin to go in alone. When I entered, I saw a middle-aged man. He was wearing a green robe with auspicious cloud patterns embroidered with fine cotton thread, making him appear solemn and yet elegant. This is a middle-aged Confucian businessman. Song Jin felt enlightened when he saw it. This person came to her in the previous life and helped her a lot, but she didn''t expect that he would appear earlier in this life. As for why he showed up in advance, Song Jin didn''t know. Seeing Song Jin come in, he quickly stood up to greet her. Without saying a word, he bowed to Song Jin and said, "Miss, I am Song Huaichang, the steward of Huaiqing Mansion." Song Jin bowed back to him, "I''ve met Uncle Huaichang." "You''re welcome, Miss." Song Huaichang said this, but his eyes were much more sincere, "Please come and sit here. Miss, would you like to drink Huangshan Jinhao, Qihong Xiangluo or Qihong Maofeng?" "Here comes a pot of gold." Song Jin sat down with a smile. Song Huaichang personally made tea for Song Jin, his movements were smooth and natural, and his face was gentle and rosy, making it easy for people to feel close to him. He looked at the tea bowl pushed in front of him. The tea soup is deep orange-yellow, clear and bright, the bottom of the leaves is soft and bright, the edges of the leaves are vermilion, the center of the leaves is light green with yellow, and the aroma is refreshing. This is a famous tea from Huizhou Prefecture. Song Jin took a sip and said, "Thank you Uncle Huaichang for the treat. I haven''t had such an expensive tea since the incident at home." Song Huaichang listened with a smile. After listening, he didnt say much. He took out a letter from his arms. The envelope looked a little old. It was written personally by Song Huaichang, but the handwriting was familiar to Song Jin. It was Song''s father''s handwriting. Song Jin''s heart was full of ups and downs, but she was suppressed. She accepted it calmly and opened the letter unhurriedly. There were lines of small characters written on a piece of paper. Song Jin looked at the beginning first, and then at the signature. The signature is signed by Song Kuan and his personal seal. It shows that this letter was indeed written by Songs father. Song Jin did not see this letter in the previous life. When Song Hengchang came to find her, he just handed over all the property of Huaiqing Mansion to her without even mentioning it in the letter. And this time, he came early. After reading the letter written by Song''s father to Song Huaichang, Song Jin immediately understood the reason. At this moment, Song Huaichang took out a machine box, put it on the tea table, and pushed it to Song Jin who was sitting opposite, "This is what the head of the family said, and he will only let me hand it over to you after the eldest lady has her own heir." something. This box looks exactly like the one in Song Jin''s home, except that it is larger than the one in her home. Song Jin naturally knew how to open it, "If I don''t have a child of my own, will you just keep me as a wealthy and idle person in this life, as the letter said?" "Yes, the head of the family is a good father." Song Huaichang asked: "Of course, the way forward depends on the young lady''s personal choice." Song Kuan confessed three things about Song Huaichang. One is to let him stare at the Qin family. If the Qin family has evil intentions, let him rescue people and destroy the entire Qin family. Second, Song Jinsheng has an heir, so he can give her the Luban box. Otherwise, let him seal it. Third, Song Jin has been childless for three years, so the property of Huaiqing Mansion can be transferred to her name. The key lies in whether Song Jin has any descendants. Song Jin had no children in her previous life, so Song Huaichang transferred the property of Huaiqing Mansion to her, which was enough for her to be rich for a lifetime even if she was childless. Song Jin''s eyes fell on destroying the entire Qin family. Old man Qin didn''t dare to do anything to her. Is it because of this? Song Jin asked again: "Does my father have anything else to explain?" "The head of the family said that three years after you marry into the Qin family, he will privately give Qin Shi five thousand taels every year until his death." Song Huaichang said suddenly. "I see." Song Jin suddenly understood, and then she asked again, "What if I die first?" "Then naturally we can''t give you this money anymore." Song Huaichang answered matter-of-factly. Song Jin suddenly realized. Some things that were unreasonable in the previous life suddenly seemed reasonable. Old Man Qin is not a person of noble character. Without enough benefits, it is impossible for him to take risks, even if his father is kind to him. There are many ungrateful people in this world. Probably her father also knew very well, so he treated her with both kindness and power. In that situation, my father had no choice. If she had one more choice, she probably wouldn''t be able to marry into the Qin family. Tears welled up in Song Jin''s eyes, and the falling tears wet the letter paper. This piece of paper is not big, but it is full of fatherly heart, and there is no mention of Song Xiu in the whole article. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Sure enough, Song Xiu was just a bonus. Her father''s favorite has always been her. Song Huaichang was born in a branch of the Song family. The side branches of the Song family are spread all over the country, and those living in Huizhou Prefecture are all direct branches. Song Huaichang was a confidant single-handedly promoted by Song''s father, and his daughter''s retreat could only be left to trustworthy people. This man has both the shrewdness and ability of a businessman and the elegance of a scholar. He has the integrity of a Huizhou merchant. As the head of the family, Song Kuan did not let him follow Song Jin. It can be said that he gave him the greatest respect. What''s more, it would be a bit embarrassing for a person who has lived half his life to follow Song Jin. After all, it is not easy for a teenage girl to convince others. Song Jin wiped away her tears with an embroidered handkerchief and said, "I made Uncle Huaichang laugh." "This is human nature." Song Huaichang''s eyes were filled with approval and understanding. Its scary to be indifferent when you see your fathers letters. Song Jin''s eyes fell on the Luban box again. She put her hand on the box and said, "Uncle Huaichang, do you want to know what''s inside?" Song Huaichang shook his head, "Do you want me to avoid it?" "No need. If my father can trust you, then you must be a trustworthy person." Song Jin immediately opened the Luban box. Suddenly, he saw that inside the box was a square white jade seal with a black bird totem carved on it. Song Huaichang was surprised, "Is this a family seal?!" The so-called family seal is the seal passed down from the family. Song Jin picked it up and looked through it. Sure enough, it was the seal of the Song family, which represented the status symbol of the family head. In addition, the box contains an account book and a list of personnel, as well as a genealogy belonging to the direct branch of the Song family in Huizhou. Song Huaichang smiled bitterly, "Miss, does the head of the family want to pass on the position of head of the family to you?" "There has never been a matriarch in my clan." Song Jin was telling the truth, "I can only bear this responsibility temporarily. When I find my father and the others, I will hand it over to them." "What do you mean by this?" Song Huaichang asked in shock. Song Jin raised his eyes and glanced at him, "I don''t believe you haven''t sent someone to check their whereabouts." "When I received the news, quite a while had passed. I sent people to the capital to inquire, but none of the people sent came back." Song Huaichang was frightened when he mentioned this matter. Later, he spent a lot of money to buy information from others, saying that the Huizhou medicine merchants, the Song family, had not been escorted to the capital. And the person disappeared halfway. (End of chapter) Chapter 164 considerate Chapter 164 Thoughtful Song Huaichang said: "In the past two years, I have only asked people to investigate secretly, but no clues were found. Does the eldest lady know the inside story?" "Only a few have been identified." Song Jin told what he had investigated, "Father and the others lost their clues when they entered the East China Sea. I have asked people to keep an eye on the medicinal materials on the market. If any medicinal materials unique to the Song family appear, they will send a message to me immediately. " Just as guessed before. If the people behind the scenes came here for Song''s skill in concocting medicinal materials, they would probably make a profit out of it. Then Song''s medicinal materials may also appear on the market. As long as it was not sold from Jifang, it might have been sold by the missing Song family. Song Huaichang said solemnly: "Then I also ask people to pay attention to it?" "Thank you, Uncle Huaichang." Song Jin said with gratitude. "You are now a heretic. I am also a member of the Song family. But about this matter, do you want to inform the Song family members in other states?" "I don''t think so." Song Jin rejected Song Huaichang''s proposal, and then said sincerely, "Let me tell Uncle Huaichang what I want to say. In the past, I didn''t even know much about the family''s business behind the scenes, let alone meddling in it. But I think Sometimes when too many people know, troubles can easily arise. If the investigation is accidentally leaked, I''m afraid... the people behind the scenes will silence it. And the power that can make Huizhou Magistrate Yang do his bidding is not something we can contend with. Song Jin did not dare to act rashly. For fear of involving more clan members. You must know that the people behind the scenes are very crazy, and they kill people and destroy families at every turn. What Song Jin said. This includes the inside story of how the Song family was framed. These were things Song Huaichang had never known before. Unable to find out the depth of the person behind the scenes, and the Song family is still in the hands of the other party, Song Jin should be cautious no matter how cautious he is. Next, Song Huaichang and Song Jin talked about many things. The power behind the Song family is actually the power and wealth developed by the side branches with the support of direct lineage. It has always been dominated by the Song family in Huizhou Prefecture. Now that something happens to the direct descendants of the Song family, the most likely outcome is that each of them will take charge. If Song Jin wants to use her body as a female streamer to make the neighboring families in various places obey her orders, the possibility is very slim. In this world where men are respected, it is impossible to identify with a female head of the family. If you try hard to win her over, it will most likely lead to internal fighting. Song Huaichang analyzed the pros and cons to Song Jin. When Song Jin talked with him, he always seemed to be able to see into people''s hearts and gave Song Jin the greatest respect and warmth. "I will still transfer the property in Huaiqing Mansion to the eldest lady. I think that based on the original intention of the family owner, I probably want to see you safe and sound." Song Huaichang is also a father, so he understands this mentality best. If Song Jin wants to win over the family''s forces, he will encounter many intrigues and may also put himself in danger. After all, people''s hearts are unpredictable and desires are hard to satisfy. The time they spent apart. Song Huaichang handed another box to Song Jin. What is in this box is the property of Huaiqing Mansion, such as shops, fields and Zhuangzi deeds. "I run the Huichun Hall. If the eldest lady wants to find me, she can send a letter to the shopkeeper of the Huichun Hall." It has been two years since Song Huaichang came to the town. After Song Jin thanked him again and again. Go out and leave in Lao Litou''s mule cart. Song Huaichang stood at the door and watched her leave. Next to him was the shopkeeper of Huichun Hall, who said curiously: "I heard before that the master of the house has a daughter who is as beautiful as a fairy. Is she this one? She is good-looking, but she is not stunning." "It''s rare to find something strange." Song Huaichang did not say that Song Jin should have covered up his appearance, otherwise walking around with his original appearance would most likely cause trouble. As the confidant of the family head. Song Huaichang had naturally seen Song Jin''s true appearance. Although I only saw it once from a distance. It was also very stunning at the time, just like a stunning shadow in the world, and suspected of being a fairy in a painting. At this time, Song Jin didn''t know what others said about him. My whole mind fell on the two boxes. This is another difference from the previous life. When she returned to Qinjiagou, Song Jin still seemed to be in a dream. Even Qin Chi called her twice, but she didn''t hear her and went straight back to her room holding two boxes. The corners of Qin Chi''s mouth twitched slightly as he was ignored. Old Li Tou said happily: "Sir, Madam is thinking about something." "Um?" Qin Chi raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "Who are you meeting?" "Song Huaichang is the owner of Huichun Hall." Old Li recognized Song Huaichang. "This man came to town the year before last and opened a Huichun Hall. His business reputation is pretty good." "My surname is Song." Qin Chi immediately thought that this person was probably related to the Song family. Without asking any more questions, he turned and went back to the room. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! I saw Song Jin sitting in front of the desk. There were two boxes on the table. Qin Chi recognized one of them. It was the same as the Luban box in the Song brocade cage, but if you look closely, you can see the difference. The reason is that it is relatively large. Rich people usually use this kind of box to store valuable things. Song Jin raised his eyes and glanced at Qin Chi. She quickly looked away again, making it clear that she didn''t want to talk right now. I just want to be quiet for a while. Qin Chi was sensible and did not ask anything on the spot. Instead, he went to the tea room and personally cooked a pot of ginseng tea for Song Jin before bringing it back to the room. He gently placed it in front of Song Jin. "Madam, drink a bowl of ginseng tea to replenish your body." Qin Chi''s eyes were full of concern. When he came back, Song Jin''s eyes were slightly red. Even though she looked the same as usual, people familiar with her could easily tell that she had cried before returning to Qinjiagou. Otherwise, Qin Chi would not ask Lao Li Tou who she had met. Song Huaichang is probably a member of the Song family. And what makes Song Jin sad and makes her cry is most likely related to her relatives. Song Jin picked up the ginseng tea and took a sip as if in a trance, "Thank you for your kindness." "You and I are husband and wife, so there''s no need to say thank you." Qin Chi pulled a chair and sat down close to Song Jin. His eyes fell on the two boxes on the table. Like a gentleman, he didn''t touch the box. Qin Chi asked: "Is there any news about my father-in-law?" Song Jin shook his head gently, and there seemed to be a smile at the corner of his mouth, but there was no smile in his eyes, "I just know some things, some of my father''s plans before he was taken away by the official." Just this sentence. There is not much more to say. Qin Chi noticed a hint of defensiveness in her. This defensiveness is not for him. It is an instinctive alienation formed over a long period of time, and it is also a kind of reservation towards others. After Song Jin finished drinking the ginseng tea, Qin Chi picked up the empty tea bowl and excused himself to go out. When he walked out of the room, he thoughtfully closed the door. This is the space left for Song Jin to be alone. Hearing Qin Chi''s footsteps gradually walking away, Song Jin looked at the ajar door, a little lost in thought on his face. Ever since I read my fathers letter. This mood has never been calmer! After returning home, she felt a little more stable. Let that wandering heart gradually return to settle down. Chapter 165 Great fortune from heaven Chapter 165: Huge Fortune from Heaven Song Jin reopened the Luban box. Checked the contents one by one. The account book is the income and share of each state government, and the list is the stewards of each state government responsible for local business. It is also a list of contacts. For example, Song Huaichang belongs to Huaiqing Prefecture. These industries were originally the direct branches of the Song family in Huizhou. However, the direct branch does not come forward to manage, and the people who cultivate the side branch come to run it. However, the annual profit from the operation is 37%, the side branch gets 70%, and the direct branch gets 30%. According to this division, it is not difficult to see that the direct branch has the intention of supporting the side branch, which is actually a conscientious move. Only from the account books, Song Jin saw the clues. The income of some state capitals is decreasing every year, while some state capitals are increasing year by year. Some state capitals are in deficit for many years and have to fill the vacancy with direct branches. Even so, the Song family can be said to have a wealth of thousands of dollars. So, where did the money go? Song Jin took out the family tree and seal from the box. An empty box is left. Then she knocked on the bottom of the box. You must know that the Luban box at home has a dark layer. At that time, my father''s letters and Song''s Pharmacopoeia were hidden in it. After knocking and hearing the sound, Song Jin was sure that there was also a dark layer. After opening it according to the known steps. There was indeed something in the dark layer. It turned out to be deposit vouchers from various banks. After checking the amount on the voucher, it was found to be between five thousand gold and ten thousand gold. More than ten vouchers for withdrawals. The total amount is 130,000 gold. One tael of gold can be exchanged for 10 taels of silver, and 130,000 gold can be exchanged for 1.3 million silver. Song Jin''s hands holding these silver certificates were shaking a little. Huge wealth from heaven! Let her, a small drug dealer who has not yet entered the mainstream, instantly have a savings comparable to that of a big family. I missed out on sudden wealth in my previous life. The biggest reason is that she has no children? "Why did father set this condition?" Song Jin''s doubts flashed through his mind. Don''t you want to take advantage of others? Not to mention, before she died in her previous life, none of her family wealth was left to the Qin family, and all of it was given to her confidants who accompanied her through life and death. Song Jin put the things back again. As for the contract in the other box, Song Jin had already read it in his previous life, so he didn''t open it again this time. Put the two boxes into her personal cage. There were too many things going on today, and Song Jin felt that he needed to take a breather first. "Madam, should we have lunch in the main room, or should we send it to your room?" Mrs. Huang''s words rang outside the house. Song Jin looked at the screen window, it was noon, "Let''s eat in the main room, I''ll be out in a minute." Mrs. Huang left in response. Song Jin studied his ink and quickly wrote a letter. When he stepped out of the door, he handed the letter to Old Li Tou, "Old Uncle Li, when will you go to the county seat and help me give the letter to Shopkeeper Tao of Shun''an Bookstore?" "Okay, I''ll go there in the afternoon." Lao Litou took the letter. When Song Jin went to the main hall to have lunch, he handed the letter to Qin Chi, and pretended to drive to the county seat. Song Jin knew nothing about this. I was eating with the two milk babies and Mr. Li. Qin Chi originally wanted to go to the main room for dinner, but after receiving the letter, he returned to the study. After opening the letter and reading it, "Is this an appointment with me? Shun''an Bookstore in three days?" It''s not an appointment with him, it''s an appointment with Anton''s family. After the contract was signed, most of the contacts between the two parties were made by people below. "Qin Yi, haven''t you found any clues about the Song family yet?" Qin Chi was also helpless about this matter. "No news." Qin Yisheng replied firmly. The south of Huizhou has been turned over again and again. The most powerful thing about the Song family is the art of processing. If the people behind the scenes need this art, they must place the people in suitable places. According to the regional distribution of medicinal materials similar to Huizhou, Qin Chi focused on some prefectures to search. But no clue means no clue. Qin Yi thought of something and reported back: "Last time I searched for similar cases between the Song family and the Liu family, there were no obvious similarities. However, in the past twenty years, carpenters, blacksmiths and other craftsmen have disappeared in every state. No one has found it yet. The family members reported the case to nothing. But these cases appeared earlier, the earliest being eighteen years old. Qin Chi asked thoughtfully: "Do you think this is a coincidence or is it related?" "Sir, this subordinate is stupid." Qin Yi really doesn''t know. He''s very good at martial arts, but he really doesn''t know about this brain-consuming thing. Qin Chi did not embarrass him, "Write a letter and say that Shun Andong''s family is not in the county, and we will meet at Piaoxiang Building in the town instead. After you have written the letter, wait for old Uncle Li to come home, and you will give him the letter, and he will naturally Will be handed over to Mrs. "Yes, sir." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Yi responded and went to do it. Piaoxianglou is a very famous restaurant in the town. For the full moon banquet of the twins, the chef was invited from Piaoxiang Restaurant, but no one knew that this restaurant was Qin Chi''s property. Qin Chi changed the address because he didn''t want Song Jin to travel so much. It was more convenient to go to the town than to the county seat. You can get there and back in one morning. Just a while later. Qin Yi came to report again: "Sir, my wife has gone out. It looks like she is going to the pharmacy." "The pharmacy shouldn''t be in operation at this time?" Qin Chi asked doubtfully. Qin Yi added: "But the Xing family lives over there at the pharmacy. Madam is probably going to meet the Xing family." "I see." Qin Chi couldn''t help but think of Song Jin''s appearance when he came back in the morning, knowing that he was paying too much attention to her and had no intention of dealing with his own affairs. It''s like a pile of secret reports on the table... And over there at the pharmacy. Song Jin did go to see Xing Lun. Xing Lun was also surprised to see Song Jin coming. As soon as he saw her stepping into the house, he immediately got up to greet her. "My boss! Why are you here suddenly? Is there something important?" Xing Lun led the person into the living room. Then ask someone to make a pot of hot tea. Song Jin looked around and saw that there was no one else in the hall, so he immediately revealed his intention. Another piece of paper was taken out. There are account numbers of various banks on it. Xing Lun looked at these accounts and asked, "Boss, what are these?" "My father opened accounts at various banks, all of which are anonymous." Song Jin took out several more vouchers, which were stamped with the family seal, "Show these to the shopkeeper of the bank, and they will let you check the deposit and withdrawal status of the account." The banking institutions of the Daxia Dynasty were very mature. Not only does it provide currency exchange, custody and other services, it also issues currency deposit certificates, such as gold or silver tickets. At the same time, some large banks will provide unique account numbers for large customers to facilitate the recording and management of customers'' deposits and withdrawals. For example, if you deposit money into a unique account in Huaiqing Mansion, it is designated to be collected in Huizhou Mansion. After a certain period of time, you can withdraw the money at Huizhou Bank with the account number and other credentials. Of course, the bank will charge a certain fee. The accounts of the eight major banks that Song Jin asked Xing Lun to check were the accounts hidden by the Song family in Huizhou. In previous years, the profits of state governments were directly deposited into these accounts. In the two or three years since the Song family''s accident, we still need to check whether anyone has deposited money as agreed. After knowing the specific situation, Song Jin can proceed to the next step. Xing Lun said he would check as soon as possible. And these banks are all open in Fucheng. He has to go there, and the round trip may take several days. I''m a bit stuck today, so I''ll update first. Chapter 166 Give advice Chapter 166 Guidance Song Jin returned to Qinjiagou in the evening. Qin Chi was not seen at home. After dinner, when she was about to wash up, she saw Mrs. Li coming to look for her with her child. Both children have learned to walk. It''s just that I walk very awkwardly and crookedly, and I have to fall down from time to time. He doesnt cry even if he falls, and he still stands up with a giggle. The boredom of the day was immediately cured by the two children. Song Jin gently took the children with her eyebrows until they were tired from playing and dozed off, and were taken away by Mrs. Li and Mrs. Huang. Song Jin was free now. It was getting dark, but Qin Chi was still nowhere to be seen. Song Jin recruits Xiaoyu. "Master, what are your orders?" Xiaoyu would still call Song Jin Dongjia in private. Song Jin directly asked Qin Chi if he was at home? Xiaoyu replied: "Young master said that he is out for a visit and will not return home for three to five days." This young master naturally refers to Qin Chi. It was Xiaoyu who heard Old Li Tou and Mrs. Huang calling them that, so she followed suit. In fact, the names of this family are a bit confusing, but as the protagonist, I never corrected it. Xiaoyu was sent away. Song Jin looked out the window as the night fell. She lit the oil lamp in the bedroom and took out the Luban box that Song Huaichang gave her. The ledger and list were taken out. Sitting in front of the desk, Song Jin flipped through the account book again, and did so very carefully. Song Jin''s current mood is quite contradictory. In her previous life, she would have put the Luban box away. But living another life, my mood is different. Why should she give up something that should belong to the direct lineage of the Song family in Huizhou? Naturally, we need to clarify them one by one. Of course, it doesn''t matter whether he is loyal to her or not, at least he must get back the property belonging to the Song family in Huizhou. Song Jin is writing at his desk. The combination of the ledger and the list divides the people on the list into three types. 1. The income is stable or increasing year by year. Second, the returns are diminishing year by year. The last type is those whose business has been losing money for many years. Just these three situations reveal various aspects of life. Song Jin didn''t want to check everything one by one. I wrote a letter directly to the governors of various state capitals whose businesses were profitable. The content of the letter probably stated that the affairs of the Song family''s direct descendants would change from bright to dark. Just as it was before, it will be the same in the future. Just deposit the annual profits into the bank account. Then he wrote a letter to those who had lost money, and asked them simply and rudely to dispose of the property of the direct branch of the Song family, and deposit the money into their account again. The letters are all stamped with the family seal. This represents the order of the Song clan. How the recipient will respond depends on their conscience. Even if he is a tribesman, it still takes a while to know whether a person is a ghost. We will then decide what to do with it. When Song Jin finished writing all the letters, it was already the fourth day and he packed up the letters on the table. I went to bed with sleepy eyes. Half asleep, it seemed as if someone was lying next to her. But feeling the familiar breath, I fell asleep peacefully again. Suddenly, he found someone stroking his eyebrows. Song Jin was sleepy and struggled to open his eyes. With the faint light, he saw Qin Chi lying on his side. "What? Did it wake you up?" Qin Chi''s voice seemed to be brushing against her ears, as soft as velvet, with a hint of elegance and confidence. At this time, Song Jin''s mind was completely awake, "Didn''t my husband say he was going to visit?" "He came back overnight." Qin Chi''s eyes fell on her eyebrows. The fingertips were tapping again and again, as if to smooth away the sadness gathering between her brows. I really didn''t mean to wake her up. Song Jin raised her slender jade-like hand and grabbed Qin Chi''s hand caressing her eyebrows. His hand was so cold that she shivered involuntarily. Qin Chi chuckled, "Are you cold?" "Did you just come back? Are your hands so cold?" Met Song Jin''s suspicious eyes. The most important thing is that my hands are cold, but I still have the nerve to touch her. This little look was so obvious that Qin Chi couldn''t ignore it. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi retracted his hand in embarrassment, and simply rolled her into his arms, covering her face against his chest. It was so cold that Song Jin shivered. "What happened to my husband today? Who provoked you?" Song Jin felt that he was a little strange now. He wouldn''t have been so naive before. Qin Chi gently stroked her silky black hair, "I came back in such a hurry, didn''t I just want to discuss something with the lady? But the lady looks like she just fell asleep?" "Be busy with something, and before you know it, you''ll be late for rest." After Song Jin said this, he paused and asked, "What do you want to discuss?" Qin Chi went out after receiving the news this time. It was true that something happened. He originally wanted to talk to Song Jin, but thinking that she stayed up late and was still awake, he wanted to wait until she woke up before talking. After all, if I tell her about this now, she might not be able to sleep. "Let''s talk after you get some rest." Qin Chi said soothingly. Song Jin said in a low voice: "Aren''t you in a hurry?" "There''s no rush." Qin Chi patted her back and motioned for her to sleep first. Song Jin quietly nestled in his arms and closed her eyes. It was quiet for a long time. Qin Chi thought she had fallen asleep. Song Jin suddenly asked: "Ms. sir, if something happens to the master''s family and the people under his command are scattered, what can the descendants of the master''s family do to gather this force? To minimize the casualties, it would be better if we can fight without bloodshed." Qin Chi pondered for a moment, "Thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, thousands of miles of dust, once the emperor and one courtier, do you understand the meaning of this poem? Many principles in this world are similar. When encountering similar situations, you only need to remember that there are Then change it, and if you dont, then encourage it. If you are stubborn, you should abandon it. Hearing this, Song Jin was silent for a long time. When Qin Chi thought she was asleep, she responded in a low voice: "What your husband said is true." Qin Chi''s words made Song Jin''s messy thoughts become clear in an instant. As the saying goes, there is one emperor and one courtier. Those who follow Song''s father are all elderly and only believe in him. If Song Jin steps forward, it will be difficult for the other party to convince her. They may even think of themselves as elders and point fingers at a junior like her. This situation is not difficult to see clearly. For example, when I went to meet Song Huaichang. According to Song Huaichang''s intention, he wanted Song Jin to be a wealthy and idle man. This also indirectly shows that he does not want Song Jin to recruit the officials of other states without overestimating her capabilities, because it is very likely that she will not be able to recruit them, but will cause trouble, and she is worried that it will break her existing peaceful life. Song Huaichang also said that her father would want her to live a peaceful life. Actually, Song Jin didn''t think so. Her father may think so, but he also hopes that she can stand up. Otherwise, he would not have set a condition for her to have an heir. Because heirs represent inheritance. Once the bloodline is cut off, there is no need to get the family seal. Her father wanted her or her children to revitalize the Song family in the future and pass on the Song family''s craftsmanship. (End of chapter) Chapter 167 Make an appointment Chapter 167 Meeting When Song Jin woke up, it was already noon. He touched the place where Qin Chi was lying. It''s cool, obviously people have gotten up early. If he hadn''t been very clear-headed, Song Jin would have doubted whether last night was a dream. After all, Xiaoyu said that he would be out for three to five days. Song Jin got up and dressed up. Then she sat in front of the dressing table, combed her hair into a woman''s bun, and inserted a wooden hairpin into her hair. Mrs. Huang came in with warm water, "Madam, are you awake? I''ll bring water in for you to wash up." "Excuse me." Song Jin said politely, "Where is your young master?" "The young master went out again and said he would not come back until the day after tomorrow." Mrs. Huang reported truthfully, "The kitchen has left lunch for you. Madam, do you want to eat? I will bring it to you." Song Jin nodded, and Mrs. Huang left. After lunch, I sorted through the letters again and checked them to confirm that they were correct. Song Jin called Lao Li Tou again and asked him to help deliver these letters to the inn. Because he is Qin Chi''s man. Song Jin didn''t disbelieve the other party. After living together for so long, you can still tell what their character is like. Of course, Song Jin didn''t hide anything, which made Qin Chi feel comfortable when he heard about it. In a pavilion in the backyard of Piaoxiang Building in the town. Qin Chi and Lao Li Tou met. Looking at this stack of letters, there were more than fifty in total. Qin Chi itched his hands to open them and read them, but finally held back, "Uncle Li, what kind of person do you think my wife is?" "Why do you ask the young master like that?" Old Li Tou gave him a strange look. Qin Chi put down the letter, "She said she believed me, but she never discussed this matter with me. But if she said she didn''t believe me, she never guarded against you." "He is quite a contradictory person." Old Li Tou has lived a long life, but he has not seen through Song Jin. Not completely trusting, but not defensive. But Lao Li Tou didn''t say this. Qin Chi added: "Don''t send these to the inn. Send them through our channels. This is safer." "Okay, sir." Mr. Li was ordered to go to work. Qin Chi leaned back on his chair and frowned. He still had a lot of things to deal with. He had to finish them first before he could spare time to see Song Jin. He had not forgotten the appointment. But thinking about the identity of the owner who couldn''t be mentioned, he felt a dull pain in his head again. What did Song Jin want to ask him to do? He was extremely curious. This feeling of meeting in secret gave him a vague sense of novelty, just like some men hiding their wives at home and going out to have sex. Although he was also seeing his own wife. Of course, he didn''t want to admit that he didn''t dare to let her know because he couldn''t save face. That night, Qin Chi stayed overnight at Piaoxiang Building. It wasn''t until the next day that he got up and heard from his subordinates that Song Jin had arrived at Piaoxiang Tower as agreed. Qin Chi rolled over and got up, "Take him to Mingyu Pavilion and let him make a pot of tea." "Yes, sir." The man responded and hurried out. Outside Piaoxiang Building. A carriage stopped in front of the restaurant. Xiao Liuzi accompanied Song Jin here today. It was already past breakfast time and not yet noon, so there were no diners in the lobby. Song Jin got out of the car and stepped into the threshold of Piaoxiang Tower. Xiao Liuzi followed her, holding a box in his hand. Immediately a waiter greeted me with a smile. Before he could speak, Song Jin said, "I made an appointment to meet someone here today. My surname is Song." "It turns out to be Mrs. Song, please come inside." The waiter led the way, and Song Jin and Xiao Liuzi followed him. Instead of going directly to the second floor, they went to the backyard of the restaurant and passed through a winding and quiet corridor. We arrived at a beautiful attic. Then he was introduced to a living room. The bright room is spacious, simple and elegant. In the hall, long sandalwood cases are laid out, with inkstones and calligraphy treasures on them, and several sharp brushes inserted in the pen holders. The blue and white porcelain vase is left standing, and the fragrance overflows. Behind the long desk, a neat landscape painting hangs, which looks solemn yet elegant. The ground is paved with a whole bluestone slab, which is as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the light outside the window. The window lattice is exquisitely carved with complex patterns, and sunlight is projected into the room through them, forming dappled light and shadow. There is a lush potted plant placed by the window. The leaves are green and green, bringing a touch of life to this serious living room. It seems to be able to cleanse people''s hearts and completely dissipate impetuousness. What caught Song Jin''s attention the most was the six large screens placed by the side door. There is a sandalwood table, chairs and coffee table behind the screen. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! It didnt take much thinking to figure out that it was the mysterious owner who would soon ask for the place to sit. Xiao Liuzi came close to Song Jin and whispered: "Master, why didn''t you see anyone?" "It''s not out yet. Let''s wait." Song Jin saw the tea table and chairs nearby and sat down first. Xiao Liuzi stood behind her holding a wooden box in his hand. After a while, someone brought snacks and tea. In the past, Song Jin would not have touched these things, but after working together for so long, she had established some trust. If she did not touch these things, it would seem that she was too careful. He picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. Picked up another piece of exquisite pastry and ate it. Then, she picked up the plate and handed it to Xiao Liuzi behind her. "Eat." Song Jin said. Xiao Liuzi was surprised, "Can I eat this?" "What''s wrong? Isn''t it just for people to eat?" Song Jin winked at him. If you don''t eat, you won''t eat for nothing. Anyway, I came out without eating much breakfast. Xiao Liuzi laughed, put the wooden box on the tea table aside, took the pastry plate and started eating. When Qin Chi came over. I happened to see this scene through the screen. Deliberately walking lightly, he sat behind the screen and lowered his voice and said, "I was late and kept Mrs. Song waiting for a long time." "You''re welcome, I just arrived." Song Jin stood up and bowed politely. Qin Chi said straight to the point: "I wonder why Madam Song is meeting this time?" "Send me some sincerity." Song Jin picked up the box on the table. At this time, the waiter who was guarding outside came in, took the box with both hands congratulatory, and then turned it to the other side of the screen for Shun''an''s family to check. Qin Chi had some expectations in his heart. What is my wife going to give him? When I opened the box, I immediately looked at a stack of deeds, including house deeds, shops, medicine farms, and workshops. Qin Chi picked it up and checked it over. They are all properties of Huaiqing Mansion. Finally, Qin Chi picked out two deeds from Zhuangzi, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Ms. Song is really willing to give. The medicine villages in Liujiazhuang and Huangfu Village are very valuable. I remember that one is planted with Rehmannia glutinosa, and the other is planted with Rehmannia glutinosa. Its about growing chrysanthemums. "Exactly, this is the sincerity of my Song family, offering half of the property of Huaiqing Mansion as a deed." Song Jin knows that when you do things, you will gain something if you give up. It is almost impossible to get people to do their best without enough benefits. Qin Chi said teasingly: "According to our agreement, it will be less than three years." "I have never thought about defaulting on the debt. It doesn''t matter whether I pay early or late. I just hope that you can give me good news within the remaining agreed time." This is exactly three years. Song Jin actually had no hope in his heart. But he couldn''t help but be prepared for the worst. Chapter 168 fall off horse Chapter 168 Falling Horse "Ms. Song is so sincere, I can''t hide it." The person on the other side of the screen suddenly said this. Song Jinxin was lifted up instantly. After waiting for a while, the person on the other side of the screen did not speak. Only then did Song Jin realize that there were outsiders in the room, so he said, "Xiao Liuzi, wait for me outside." "Yes, boss." Xiao Liuzi went out quickly. At this time, the person behind the screen said: "Recently, there is news that Song''s medicinal materials have appeared in the capital, and they are still in the herbal medicine warehouse of Taiyuan Hospital." "really?!" Song Jin stood up suddenly after hearing this, very excited. Qin Chi originally wanted to say that night, but saw that she was too tired so he didn''t speak for the time being. After thinking about it, he decided to let someone find out the source. But at this moment, he said out of nowhere, "The source of the medicinal materials has not yet been identified, and I have asked someone to check it out." "Thank you, Your Excellency." After waiting for so long, Song Jin finally got a clue, "Are you just sure that those medicinal materials were recently prepared? Not the previous ones?" "It''s new." When Qin Chi received the news, he was also surprised, "The medicinal materials you sold me will not appear in the capital. I will wait until my people find out." This matter is not difficult to investigate. It is estimated that news will come soon. The herbal medicine warehouse is a department under the Taiyuan Hospital. It mainly provides medicinal materials to the emperor and the people in the court. Medicinal materials of unknown origin are unlikely to be stored in the warehouse. As long as there are contacts in Taiyuan Hospital, they can find out. This news shocked Song Jin a little. He stood up to say goodbye and walked out of the reception room, but he still didn''t come back to his senses. "My boss?" When the little Liuzi outside saw Song Jin coming out, he came over immediately. Song Jin looked at the blue sky and the mirror-like courtyard. She finally suppressed her floating emotions and waved her hand: "Go back." "Okay, I''ll pick up the car." Xiao Liuzi took the lead to find the waiter. The carriage was delivered to the stable at the back, and he had to go and get it and drive it to the door of the restaurant, waiting for Song Jin to come out. Song Jin doesn''t need the waiter to guide him. He knew the way when he arrived, so he asked the waiter to take Xiao Liuzi to the stable. A person is walking in the corridor out. This is a restaurant, so it''s not supposed to be that quiet, but I can''t help but think it''s not the time to dine. Suddenly, at the corner, a young man in brocade clothes with a hairpin came face to face. There was a boy following behind him. At first glance, the young man looked like a young master from a wealthy family. Men''s hairpins were not popular in this dynasty. They were most popular in the previous dynasty. The flowers on this young man''s hair not only gave him a sense of suaveness, but also made him a bit girly. In Song Jin''s eyes, it was funny. When the young man saw Song Jin, his eyes widened, "Beauty?! Wow, when did the beauty come to Piaoxianglou? I want her to drink with me." "Master, this is a restaurant, not a brothel." The waiter quickly reminded him, so nervous that he blocked the young man''s steps to go up. "Master said, if you cause trouble again this month, your legs will be broken." "Go, go, it''s rare to see a beauty." The young man was about to go up. Song Jin had stopped, frowned, and was too lazy to pay attention to this person, so he turned around and walked back. There is no one around now, so he might as well avoid it. As soon as he saw the beauty walking away, the young man wanted to chase her anxiously, but the boy held her feet, "Young master, this is Piaoxiang House, not a brothel. You will be beaten to death if you molest a good woman." "Woman?" The young man was stunned. The boy nodded his head, "It''s a woman! She has her hair in a woman''s bun. Didn''t you see clearly?" The young man wanted to look at Song Jin''s figure, which was no longer visible. He only remembered the graceful and graceful figure at the moment she turned around. posture. What a pity! She actually got married! Song Jin didn''t expect that he would come back again. He looked back at the corridor behind him, but no one was chasing him. Looking around again, he actually returned to the living room again. The door to the living room was not closed either. Just when Song Jin wanted to ask if there was any other way out, he saw someone walking leisurely out of the door of the living room. Suddenly, Song Jin was stunned. Qin Chi, who stepped forward, was also sluggish. For a moment, he felt his blood surge upwards, making his head dizzy. "Madam, is it too late for me to explain now?" Qin Chi''s cheeks were slightly hot with embarrassment. Song Jin recovered from her initial shock, glanced at the familiar wooden box in Qin Chi''s arms, and said with a half-smile, "If you weren''t holding the things I sent, I promise you wouldn''t think too much about it." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi could only bite the bullet and walk towards Song Jin. In eighteen years of life, this was the first time he encountered such an embarrassing situation. Qin Chi laughed dryly, "Can''t I help you get this?" "Okay, you can say whatever you want." Song Jin answered perfunctorily. Qin Chi knew he was in the wrong and felt a little guilty, but when he walked towards Song Jin step by step, his posture became more and more calm as he walked, and his smile became much more natural. Some are helpless, and some accept the status quo. This psychological process has been unknown for a long time, but it is obviously extremely wonderful. Qin Chi stepped to stand in front of Song Jin, bowed deeply, and said frankly: "At first, I was not familiar with the lady, so I was a little defensive, so I didn''t reveal my identity. I hope the lady can forgive me." "It''s okay, sir, there''s no need to apologize." Song Jin was a little unable to accept it now. He still needed a little time to digest the news. He turned around and said stiffly, "Xiao Liuzi is still waiting for me in front of the door, so I''ll leave first." After saying that, the person ran away quickly. For a moment, I forgot that I bumped into the frivolous young man just now. Fortunately, when I walked through the corridor, I didn''t see the master and servant again. Song Jin walked alone. He didn''t notice that Qin Chi was not far or near behind him. After Song Jin left the lobby, she opened the curtain and got into the carriage. Just when she was about to lower the curtain, a big hand opened the curtain again, and then Qin Chi got into the carriage. "Ma''am, can I give you a ride?" Qin Chi didn''t wait for Song Jin to answer, then sat next to her in a natural posture, stretching his long legs, feeling as if he had nowhere to rest. Xiao Liuzi who was driving knew Qin Chi. So when Qin Chi got in the car, he didn''t even stop him. In fact, he couldn''t stop him even if he tried to stop him, because he was not slow at all. Entering the carriage with Song Jin is a matter of front and back legs. Song Jin asked Xiao Liuzi to drive back. The Sixth Boy responded and the carriage moved forward. Not very fast on the street. It''s just that the atmosphere in the carriage was a bit awkward. Song Jin didn''t know what to say. No matter how big of a deal this matter was, it wasn''t really a big deal. We first met at Shun''an Bookstore. To put it bluntly, the two of them were not familiar with each other. Song Jin himself had never been close to Qin Chi, so he did not ask Qin Chi to be honest with him. As long as it means no harm to others, that''s enough. When her mind was wandering, she suddenly felt her left hand being held by Qin Chi, and then clasped tightly with her ten fingers. Song Jin looked up at Qin Chi sideways. I only saw his perfect profile and his calm and calm posture. It was as if he suddenly took hold of her hand, which was a very casual move. Chapter 169 subtle Chapter 169 Subtlety Nothing more needs to be said at this time. I feel like whatever I say is superfluous. The originally awkward atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous due to Qin Chi''s small move. Until the carriage sent people back to Qinjiagou. When he saw Xiao Liuzi''s car, Old Li Tou thought it was Song Jin coming back. He immediately took out the horse stool from behind the door and put it away, but saw Qin Chi coming down first. Old Li Tou was surprised, "Master, why is it you? Isn''t this Madam''s carriage?" "I just happened to meet him. I''m coming back on the way." Qin Chi gave Lao Li Tou the wooden box in his hand and got out of the car first. Then he waited for Song Jin to come out of the carriage and helped her down personally. Waiting for the two of them to enter the gate side by side. This operation made Lao Litou unable to understand. Especially what did the young master bring? Isn''t it exactly what Madam took from home this morning to give to Shun''an''s "owner"? Old Li Tou knew that the young master concealed his identity. Although he didn''t understand why the young master didn''t tell him at the time, he later learned that it was probably because he couldn''t save face. He had heard that the young master threatened his wife and asked her to provide Shun''an with medicinal materials for three years. I saw Xiao Liuzi trying to turn the carriage around. "Hey, boy, when did my young master get on the bus?" Old Li Tou asked in a low voice. Xiao Liuzi glanced at him doubtfully, "I got in the car with my boss." "Where did the two of them meet?" Lao Li was interested. If Xiao Liuzi didn''t know that he was a trustworthy person, he wouldn''t bother to talk to him. Can he tell others about his master''s whereabouts? Therefore, Lao Li Tou didn''t hear the answer. Xiao Liuzi ignored him, turned the carriage around, got on the shaft, and left in a hurry. "Hey, this guy has a good face." It happened that the aunt in a village saw Xiao Liuzi and started talking. The aunt next to the aunt glanced at Xiao Liuzi and said, "Isn''t this the gong player? This young man is pretty good, and he''s working as a coachman again!" "Haha, aunt, I''m not a coachman. I usually help people with chores in the town. If someone is in need of someone, I''ll help out and just make ends meet." Xiao Liuzi said with shame. These aunties have such good memories. Old Li Tou, who was about to enter the house, happened to hear it. I went back to ask Mrs. Huang and found out that Xiao Liuzi was actually one of the people who forced Qin Mingsong to take a concubine. She was immediately happy. When she took the wooden box and put it back in the study, she originally wanted to tell Qin Chi that she was happy. . As a result, Qin Chi was not in the study. Old Li turned around and asked Mrs. Huang again, "Where is the young master?" "Coax the lady in the house." Mrs. Huang was soaking soybeans. With her sharp eyes, she could tell at a glance that the atmosphere between the young master and his wife was different. Several days followed. Qin Chi unexpectedly didn''t go anywhere. He stayed at home with his wife, children and mother. Song Jin could often see him whenever he raised his head, and he looked the same as before. Song Jin knew otherwise. Even Li Shi discovered the subtlety between the two. However, Ms. Li pretended not to notice, "I miss your dad a little bit." "Dad is safe. Mom doesn''t have to worry." Qin Chi responded, but his eyes secretly glanced at Song Jin aside. Li said angrily: "I know you have arranged for someone to protect him. I''m not worried. I just miss him. Okay, I''ll take Huzi and Niuniu back to the room." Qin Chi and Song Jin heard this and were about to get up to help. But Mrs. Li walked out holding a baby in one hand. As she left, she said with emotion: "This young man can''t hide his thoughts." Song Jin''s ears suddenly turned red. Qin Chi froze, then smiled helplessly, "Mom seems to have misunderstood, what should I do?" "Pretend you didn''t hear me, what else can I do?" Song Jin just finished speaking. There were footsteps outside, and Xiaoyu came over to send a message: "Miss, my brother and Manager Xing are here." "Ask them to wait for me in the study." Song Jin immediately ordered. Xiaoyu happily responded and ran to deliver the message. Qin Chi glanced at the door, "Is there something going on at the drug store?" "I asked Xing Lun to go to Fucheng to check something, but he came back later than I expected." According to Song Jin''s idea, Xing Lun should have come back two or three days in advance. This obviously didn''t go well. Song Jin hurried out to see Xing Lun. Instead, Qin Chi looked thoughtfully and asked in one direction on the roof: "Qin Yi, is Xing Lun going to Fucheng for anything?" Qin Yi''s voice sounded faintly: "That boy is very lucky. He almost won''t be able to come back. He''s lucky enough to meet one of our people..." other side. Song Jin went to the study. There was only Xing Lun sitting on a chair in the study, drinking a bowl of hot tea. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The first time he saw Xing Lun, he discovered a problem. "Are you injured?" Song Jin was surprised. Xing Lun''s face looked a little pale, the kind of pale color caused by excessive blood loss. "Something happened." Putting down the tea bowl, Xing Lun took out a booklet from his arms, handed it to Song Jin and said, "This is the result of the investigation. Please take a look at it." Song Jin took the booklet and did not look through it immediately. Instead, he looked at Xing Lun. Half a foot away, you could still smell the medicinal smell on his body. "Tell me, what happened? Were you seriously injured?" Song Jin asked as he sat on another chair. Xing Lun''s mouth curled up slightly. The smile is vague, but he hides it well, but the smile rippling in his eyes cannot be concealed, "It''s just a skin injury, it will heal in a few days, my boss doesn''t need to worry about it." "How can you not care about this injury? Who did it?" Song Jin asked again. Xing Lun glanced at the book she was holding in her hand, and said truthfully: "It was the big shopkeeper of Cunyi Bank who did it. He learned that I was investigating the deposit and withdrawal situation, and he was very enthusiastic when he entertained me. He waited for me Send someone to kill me if I leave..." He was rescued when he was being chased. What a fluke. Song Jin was still frightened when he heard this, "I didn''t think carefully. I didn''t think that this trip might be dangerous. We must prepare a generous gift for whoever saved you." "The man saved me and left." Xing Lun said sheepishly, "I asked him his name and said I wanted to thank him, but he just said he would know when I return to Yixian County." Hear this. Qin Chi flashed in Song Jin''s mind. At this time she opened the booklet. There are account numbers for each bank in the house, and they are records of deposits and withdrawals in the past two years. Most of this is blank. No one has accessed it for two years. Only three of them are still the same, and even in the past two years, they have deposited money into their accounts. One of them is Cunyi Bank, with a total of 6,850 taels of silver. It was this money that made the big shopkeeper of Cunyi Bank want to commit murder. There must be something inside. Song Jin thought deeply and then said: "The other party may know that this account is related to the Song family." "I guess so." Xing Lun also thought of it. The account number is anonymous, but the family seal is not concealed. Qin Chi also knew about this. It was the big shopkeeper of Cunyi Bank who got greedy and accidentally learned that the account belonged to the Song family. After learning that something happened to the Song family, he found that money was still deposited into the account every year, and no one came to withdraw it as before, so he secretly did it Fake accounts and withdraw money. When someone suddenly comes to investigate, wouldnt it make me worry about being exposed? Chapter 170 Win-win cooperation Chapter 170 Win-win cooperation Song Jin asked Xiaoyu to take Xing Lun to Dr. Jing for a look. There was no one in the house now. Song Jin picked up the booklet and read it again. His eyes fell on the three conspicuous families. One is in Jianning Prefecture, one is in Huai''an Prefecture, and the other one is in Shuntian Prefecture? Shuntianfu was located in the capital. The imperial city is in Shuntian Mansion. The money embezzled by the shopkeeper of Cunyi Bank was deposited by the steward of Shuntian Mansion. Song Jin looked at the name. Song Huaiwang? People of the generation with the character "Huai" on the side branch. He was probably of the same generation as Song Huaichang. Song Jin didn''t know that his family still had this connection in his previous life. If the deposited money was withdrawn by someone in Huizhou, then the money might be deposited every year. Didn''t the big shopkeeper of Cunyi Bank in Huizhou get a big deal? What a **** thing! However, the deposits from the other two companies were still in the bank, and there was no reminder that anyone had taken them away. "Madam? Are you done talking?" Qin Chi walked into the house from outside. When he came in, he naturally knew that Xing Lun went to Dr. Jing''s place, but he just asked about it on purpose. Song Jin looked into Qin Chi''s eyes. She originally glanced lightly, but Qin Chi''s eyes were filled with autumn water, and the water was shimmering, clear and translucent, very alluring. Qin Chi walked towards Song Jin unconsciously and slowed down, then stood in front of her, bending slightly towards her. "Madam, I just found out that my people saved Xing Lun''s life. I''m not asking for credit, I''m just thinking...if I help Madam solve the trouble at Cunyi Bank again, and then return the property of Huaiqing Mansion to You, um, that matter is over, so what?" Qin Chi spoke in a calm and powerful voice, with a few wisps of warmth and jade-like softness and delicacy. Song Jin looked slightly startled. Is there such a good thing? "What do you want, sir?" Song Jin was silent for a long time before speaking rationally. Qin Chi smiled and shook his head, "I just want my wife to get rid of my concealment, nothing else." "make a deal." Song Jin had no reason to respond. Although I have been unable to look directly at him these days, who would have made him pretend to be very good on weekdays, but he would still engage in such childish behavior as hiding his identity, and even put the title of Shun An''s boss on Meng Qingrui, if she hadn''t accidentally I bumped into him and didn''t even know about it. But after the lie was exposed, it was just a little more embarrassing. She didn''t mean to laugh at him. Really, at least not on the surface. Seeing how much he had given her, she decided not to laugh at him in her heart. So Song Jinmu said with gratitude: "As for the matter of Cunyi Bank, my husband is in trouble. I just don''t know what my husband is going to do? I don''t want to spread the fact that the account number is the Song family." "In the name of Shun''an Trading Company, let Uncle Tao find the owner of Cunyi Bank." It is not convenient for Song Jin to come forward in this matter. It would be much easier to go to Shun An Commercial Bank. As long as the trading company says that the banker swallowed up their payment, the big shopkeeper''s embezzlement of customers'' money will definitely be exposed. Song Jin expressed his gratitude again. Besides, since Qin Chi is so sincere, Song Jin can''t be without conscience, right? Immediately, Song Jin said again: "My husband is so generous, I can''t take advantage of you in vain." Having said that, when Qin Chi found the wooden box in the study and handed it over, Song Jin accepted it calmly. However, Song Jin took out the other half of the deed from Huaiqing Mansion and put it back into a box together with the half that Qin Chi gave back. Unexpectedly, Song Jin handed it to Qin Chi again, "I will have to take care of the property of Huaiqing Mansion in the future. As for the annual profit sharing, you and I will get it 50-50." "Do you really believe me, madam?" The corners of Qin Chi''s mouth curled up happily. Song Jin affirmed: "Of course I believe you! We have been together for so long and have cooperated many times, so I still have this trust." "There happens to be a branch of Shun''an Commercial Bank over there in Huaiqing Mansion. I can just let someone take over the management." Qin Chi responded readily. Jifang''s development is currently only in Huizhou. Traveling a long distance to send someone to Huaiqing Mansion to take over would take a lot of time, leaving aside the issue of unfamiliarity with life. It would be better to cooperate directly with Qin Chi. They are husband and wife. There are children in the middle. It is more stable than signing a cooperation contract. Qin Chi was in a good mood. Let the people over there from Shun''an Trading Company take over the matter. Song Jin also thought this was good. The property of Huaiqing Mansion is still in her name, but the person in charge lets Qin Chi worry about it, and she can get 50% of the profits every year, which is 20% more than before. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin thought for a while and said: "These industries were originally managed by Uncle Huaichang. He is currently in Yi County. If Shun''an Trading Company wants to take over this matter, I need to write to him first so that when the personnel are handed over, It will save you a lot of worry. "Then thank you, madam." Qin Chi smiled and studied the ink for Song Jin. Song Jin immediately wrote a letter and asked Qin Chi to arrange for someone to send it to Huichun Hall. Qin Chi took the letter and went out. Just then Xing Lun came to say goodbye to Song Jin. Song Jin sent the person out of the door, "Alun, go back and recover from your injuries. We''ll talk about the rest after I go there." "Thank you, my boss, for your consideration." Xing Lun saluted Song Jin, then turned around and got into the carriage. Lou Ruhan got on the shaft of the car. About to drive away. Qin Chi came over and handed the letter to him, "Boss Lou, since you are here, by the way, send your boss''s letter to the shopkeeper of the Huichun Hall in the town." "Okay." Lou Ruhan took the letter and stuffed it into his arms. Driving a carriage out of Qinjiagou. Xing Lun in the carriage asked: "Ruhan, did Qin Xiucai give you a letter just now?" "Yes, I said it was a gift from my employer." Lou Ruhan did not hide this, "Brother Lun, do you want to see it? It''s for the shopkeeper of Huichun Hall." "No, you will send me to the pharmacy later, and then drive to the town to deliver the letter." Xing Lun just asked as a routine and had no intention of inquiring into his master''s private affairs. If the letter was from Song Jin to Lou Ruhan, Xing Lun wouldn''t even ask. Lou Ruhan grabbed the horse''s reins and waved his whip, "Brother Lun, my boss is paying more and more attention to Xiaoliuzi. When I went back to see the Shun''an Chamber of Commerce, I even took him with me to see if he could get away with it." "Look at your sour words. Are you following me and wronging you?" Xing Lun smiled jokingly, and without waiting for Lou Ruhan to show his loyalty, he continued, "Did the Dong family cooperate with Shun''an again?" "That''s not true. I said I was going to deliver something as promised." Lou Ruhan talked about Qin Chi, "My boss and Qin Xiucai have a really good relationship. Xiao Liuzi said that Qin Xiucai was also in the restaurant that time, and he left in the car with his boss." The smile between Xing Lun''s eyebrows faded a little. Listening to Lou Ruhan talking outside, he slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep. Lou Ruhan didn''t hear the response. He opened a gap in the car curtain and looked inside. When he saw Xing Lun sleeping, he stopped nagging him. Chapter 171 Something happened at the old house Chapter 171 Something happened in the old house "Brother! No, no, no!" When it was dark, Qin Daya suddenly ran to the big house and said, "Doctor Jing, please quickly invite Dr. Jing to the old house." Song Jin came out of the house. When the others heard the news, they also came out. But when Qin Chi came out, he still had a book in his hand, "Da Ya, what happened in the old house?" "Aunt Bai fell! There was a lot of blood. Grandma asked me to call you all over, and also asked Dr. Jing to come over and take a look." Qin Daya said breathlessly. He ran so fast that there were beads of sweat on his forehead. Li immediately said: "Go and ask Doctor Jing to come. I don''t want Da Lang to go for this matter. It''s better for me and Jin''er to go there." "Okay, I''ll take care of the kids at home." After hearing this, Qin Chi never thought about going there. My uncle''s concubine fell down. An older nephew of his used to be unfit. Old Mrs. Liu was also in a panic and lost her sense of control, so she let everyone in the big house pass. Li made a sound to stop him, and no one could say anything. Then he gave the two children to Mrs. Huang and Xiaoyu. Li and Song Jin were wearing cotton clothes and each carried a lantern. Doctor Jing and the little medicine boy carrying the medicine box followed behind them. When entering the big house. The first thing I smelled was a faint smell of urine. In addition, on the other side of the fourth room, Bai Cuiwei''s screams came from a room. What''s more, what Lin brought out from the house was actually a basin of blood. After Lin poured out the water. Song Jin asked in a low voice: "Third Aunt, what''s going on?" "She is Da Lang''s wife. Aunt Bai accidentally fell down when she went to the latrine. The baby in her belly is only five or six months old. She may not be able to save it." Mrs. Lin also replied in a low voice. Song Jin thought of the basin of blood just now. I think it''s very serious. A fetus of five or six months old will not survive even if it is born prematurely. Old Mrs. Liu came out of the house and shouted: "Where did the third daughter-in-law die? I asked you to pour some water, and you have to wait a long time before bringing a basin of water in." Lin instinctively took the wooden basin and went to the kitchen to get some water. When she saw Song Jin was still there, she quickly said, "I''m going to work first, and I''ll talk to you later." "Okay, Third Aunt, go get busy." Song Jin didn''t stop him either. The house where Bai Cuiwei lives is the room on the first floor at the back. Li passed by. Song Jin was still parked at the kitchen in the front yard. The atmosphere in the house was very tense. If something like this happens, living under the same roof, the second and third bedrooms will naturally help if they can. And old man Qin was sitting in the hall. Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San are also here. Song Jin greeted the three of them one by one. Old Man Qin''s solemn face rarely softened, "The young man''s wife is interested." "I do my best and hope that both the person and the child will be fine." Song Jin showed concern at the right time. Then she said she would go to Bai Cuiwei''s place to have a look. When Song Jin passed by. Old Liu and Li stayed outside. When Old Liu saw that Song Jin was coming, he looked behind her and asked, "Why are you here alone?" "My mother-in-law is here, and it''s not enough that I''m here too. Who else does Grandma want to come over?" Song Jin asked angrily. Old Liu was about to ask Qin Chi. When I thought about it, I realized something was wrong. It is not easy for men to get involved in such unlucky things. Li Shi glanced at Song Jin appreciatively. Song Jin also smiled at her, but didn''t say much. He walked to the arch inside, opened the curtain and looked inside. What hit his nostrils was the strong smell of blood. There are many people inside. Five or six people were guarding the place. In addition to Xiao Liu and other acquaintances, there was also a stable woman and a servant girl. The heavy bed curtain in front of the bed has been lowered. Doctor Jing was sitting aside, taking Bai Cuiwei''s pulse. In other words, he did not see Bai Cuiwei''s miserable condition, but only saw her stretched out hand. What''s going on inside is obscured by bed curtains. Bai Cuiwei''s intermittent cries of pain could also be heard from inside. After checking the pulse, Doctor Jing and the medicine boy came out. "Doctor, how is my grandson?" Old Liu asked eagerly. Doctor Jing said regretfully: "This fetus can''t be saved. I''ll prescribe a medicine first, boil it quickly and give it to the patient to drink. I can still save you." Old Mrs. Liu grabbed Doctor Jing and said, "Aren''t you very skilled in medicine? Why can''t you think of a way to protect the fetus?" "Forgive me for my inability to do so." Doctor Jing wanted to brush away Old Liu''s hand. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! But old Liu is really very powerful. When Song Jin saw something was wrong, he stepped forward and pretended to hold Old Liu, but in fact he wanted to help Dr. Jing, "Grandma, let go of Dr. Jing first. He still has to hurry up to prescribe the prescription. If he delays it any longer, I''m afraid he''ll be in trouble all the time." You can''t keep me safe, my uncle might make trouble with you when he comes back." "That''s right, old lady, this matter of life and death cannot be delayed here any longer." Doctor Jing had long known that this old woman was very difficult to deal with. As soon as Old Liu let go, he immediately walked out as fast as flying. The little medicine boy followed quickly, carrying the medicine box on his back. Old Liu wanted to catch up, but was blocked by Song Jin without any sign. Old Mrs. Liu glared at Song Jin, then cursed in a low voice, "Why can''t I keep it? The fourth son married some famous celebrities, one or two, and they couldn''t even keep a child." Song Xiu gave birth to one child. It was Bai Cuiwei''s turn again. Song Jin thought to himself, either he married the Sangmen star, or your fourth son would be a broom star. Whoever marries him will be unlucky! Of course, Song Jin would not say these words, but just looked at each other with Li. Sitting outside silently. At this time, Mrs. Lin entered the house with a basin of warm water and hurriedly entered the inner room. After a while, another person walked in slowly. Song Jin raised his eyes and saw Song Xiu. Song Xiu''s face was rosy and her eyebrows were stretched. The days when Qin Mingsong was away were obviously very enjoyable. When he entered the house, he covered his nose with an embroidered handkerchief, disgusted with the strange smell in the house. Song Xiu looked at Song Jin with a smile, "Sister, what are you doing here? You''re not a doctor and you can''t help. Besides, it''s just a concubine. Isn''t it enough to have so many people guarding it? You give me She lost her temper." "Xiu''er is right." Song Jin stood up and pulled Mrs. Li over, "Mom, let''s go back first. We''ll have someone send us some supplements later." Li also felt it was reasonable. There is really no need to guard a concubine. Coming here is enough to satisfy your needs. Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law go out. Song Xiu snorted coldly, turned around and walked out. Mr. Liu wanted to stop him but had no shame. After going out, Song Jin looked at Song Xiu and found that there was no guilt on her face. She should not have done such an immoral thing as Bai Cuiwei fell down and was pregnant. However, Song Jin deliberately asked Song Xiu, "Xiu''er, Bai Cuiwei fell down, was it an accident?" Unexpectedly, Song Xiu chuckled, "No, what do you want to ask me? Did I do it?" Li Shi turned around and glanced at Song Xiu behind her. My daughter-in-law seems to be mentally ill. After something like this happened, she was still smiling so happily. Song Jin hasn''t said anything yet. Suddenly a big revelation came to Song Xiu. He covered his mouth and gloated: "It was the man named Bai who went to the hut and didn''t even look at the way. He actually kicked over the bucket that my mother-in-law had just placed next to the wall, and then he was thrown down like this. Already Then Song Xiu burst into laughter again. She didn''t laugh out loud, it was really a shame on her! Song Jin and Li were stunned! I can''t imagine this scene. No wonder the smell of urine permeates the house! Someone is lacking great virtue! The two children in the fourth room were both lost because of her... Chapter 172 not on purpose Chapter 172 Its not intentional Song Jin returned home. Tell Qin Chi about the old house. Qin Chi also fell silent, and after holding it in for a long time, he finally managed to say: "Grandma... I didn''t mean it." "Yes, grandma didn''t mean it." Song Jin responded, "Xiu''er''s miscarriage was not her intention." Hearing this, Qin Chi fell silent again! When it comes to who in the old Qin family is most like the broom star, old Liu definitely occupies a seat. Qin Chi saw that Song Jin was not in a high mood. Guessing that she was affected by the incident at the old house, Qin Chi took out a secret letter from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Song Jin, "Do you want to read the news from the capital?" "nonsense." Is there any reason not to look at it? Song Jin received the secret letter. After a while, he forgot about the matters at the old house and focused entirely on the secret letter. Song''s medicinal materials appeared in Tai Hospital. After investigation, it was concocted by a female doctor named Liu. Compared with medical skills, she is better at preparing and identifying medicinal materials, so she was assigned to the Herbal Medicine Library as an ambassador. The rest have yet to be investigated. Song Jin looked very anxious. I can''t wait to go to the capital immediately to ask this person. However, she knew that this move was unrealistic. Not to mention that Huizhou was far away from the capital, and she herself would not be able to go to the capital. Moreover, the imperial hospital is located in the palace, and ordinary people cannot enter the palace. "There are already clues. If we keep an eye on her, we can always dig out one or two clues. It just takes some time." Qin Chi''s clear and gentle voice seemed to calm people''s hearts. Song Jin''s impetuous heart gradually calmed down, "This female doctor''s surname is Liu. I remember that the current envoy of Tai Hospital is also surnamed Liu?" Qin Chi nodded and said, "Yes, she is the granddaughter of Ambassador Liu." "Could this Ambassador Liu be the person behind the scenes?" Song Jin could not suppress his malicious speculation. Qin Chi said sternly: "A fifth-grade official has some status in the capital, but not that big. You have forgotten that the people who are chasing Lao Huo are all very powerful warriors. According to the Liu family''s family background, they cannot be raised. " Even if they say they are from Yangge''s hometown, they are more trustworthy than Liu Yuanshi. "Well, even if he is not the person behind the scenes, he should still be involved with the forces behind the scenes." Song Jin closed the secret letter. Where did the other party learn to prepare Song''s medicinal materials? This matter must be clarified. Song Jin then said fearfully: "We can''t investigate it openly, and we can''t alarm anyone. I''m worried that if the people behind the scenes know about it, it will bring crisis to the missing family members." "If we investigate this way, our hands will inevitably be **** and progress will be slow." Qin Chi put away the secret letter. Song Jin only said that he could wait. Even if this kind of waiting is torture every moment. At this time, Doctor Jing and Yao Tong also came back. The medicine boy went to grab the medicine and deliver it to the old house. Bai Cuiwei''s abortion has been finalized, but the inside story of how the abortion was carried out must be kept tight, otherwise the Lao Qin family will lose all face. Three days later. Shopkeeper Tao took people to Fucheng and personally dealt with the account issue. "Are you healed from your injury? There is no need to follow you." Shopkeeper Tao looked at Xing Lun next to him. Xing Lun smiled politely and said: "I almost got lost here, but I have to take a look. If I don''t see the other person''s misfortune, I''m afraid I will miss him forever." When Shopkeeper Tao heard this, he understood. Although the two are different in age, they get along surprisingly well. This time Xing Lun was injured and was recovering from his injuries. When he learned that Shopkeeper Tao was going to deal with the big shopkeeper of the bank, he immediately offered to follow him. Shopkeeper Tao was dressed very richly today and brought a few thugs to support the scene, as well as the little follower Xing Lun. They appeared together in the lobby of Cunyi Bank. "Here comes Shopkeeper Tao! Please come inside. Our boss has been waiting for you for a long time." The bank clerk greeted him flatteringly. Shopkeeper Tao waved for him to lead the way. Passing through the lobby, we came to an elegantly decorated reception room. The owner behind Cunyi Bank is named Zhang. There are branches of Cunyi Bank in every state capital. The person in charge of Huizhou is the second brother of the Zhang family, known as Mr. Zhang. Shopkeeper Tao happened to know him. After receiving the news from Qin Chi, he immediately sent a letter to Mr. Zhang. Shun''an Trading Company is also a big customer of Cunyi Bank. When he heard that some of his subordinates dared to embezzle customers'' money and pay for murders, Mr. Zhang was so shocked that he detained the big shopkeeper overnight. Then search his property. This kind of thing goes without investigation. The identity of the big shopkeeper is all in the Zhang family, and the life of the whole family is in the hands of Mr. Zhang. After just a few questionings, the big shopkeeper confessed the crime. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! At this moment. The bank manager knelt on the ground with a pale face. Mr. Zhang greeted Shopkeeper Tao with a smile and said apologetically: "This matter is due to our Zhang family not knowing people well, so we specially prepared an apology and asked Shopkeeper Tao to take a look at it." Shopkeeper Tao looked at the box on the table. In addition to making up for the greedy money, another thousand taels of gold will be compensated. It''s all real money. Xing Lun watched carefully from the side. He found that shopkeeper Tao was different from his usual easy-going appearance. He had a strong aura, which gave people a sense of oppression. Before he even spoke, the other party apologized. This kind of person is very confident and hard to mess with. Only then did Xing Lun realize that shopkeeper Tao had treated him with a good temper. Shopkeeper Tao picked up a piece of gold, looked at it and threw it back casually, saying in a cold tone: "Can some human lives be bought with money?" "Of course I can''t buy it! I can handle this **** so you don''t have to dirty your hands." Mr. Zhang kicked the big shopkeeper. Immediately, Mr. Zhang gave a look. Two nursing staff came in and dragged the big shopkeeper into a room. Some struggling and whimpering were heard. About half a quarter of an hour later, a body was brought out. He was directly strangled to death. One of the guards said: "Second Master, he hanged himself out of fear of sin." Mr. Zhang waved for the other party to step back, and then said to Shopkeeper Tao with a smile: "This is the sincerity of my Zhang family." "Okay then, this matter is over." Shopkeeper Tao and Mr. Zhang started chatting happily again, talking about many interesting things from all over the world. There is no mention of the bank corruption scandal. At the end, Mr. Zhang suddenly asked: "Oh, I am a thief who thought the account belonged to the Song family in the past. If I knew it belonged to Shun''an, I would not dare to touch it at all." "The most important thing in life is integrity." Shopkeeper Tao put down the tea bowl, "No matter who this account belongs to, he should not touch it, let alone kill people to cover up." "What Shopkeeper Tao said is absolutely true." It lasted about half an hour. Shopkeeper Tao then left with the gold and silver. Mr. Zhang sent them out in person, as if they had a deep friendship, and said goodbye reluctantly. Xing Lun watched the whole process. If I hadn''t seen this play with my own eyes, I would have thought how good they were. In fact, shopkeeper Tao said before he came that he and Mr. Zhang only met once. Today is the second time we meet. Chapter 173 shun an trading house Chapter 173 Shun''an Trading Company "Second Master, isn''t he just the boss of a trading company? Is it necessary to be so afraid of him?" The accounting clerk standing behind Mr. Zhang struggled to explain. Mr. Zhang Er''s smile faded: "Shun''an Trading Company has built up many connections in recent years with the help of Huizhou''s Four Treasures of the Study, including people from the Baochao Department." The Baochao Department belongs to the inner court department and is responsible for the affairs related to food and daily life in the palace, including the purchase of the Four Treasures of the Study. Shun An Trading Company mainly deals in things related to scholars, the Four Treasures of the Study and printing of various books, etc. Last year, he successfully became an imperial merchant by virtue of his study treasures such as Hui ink, She inkstone and Chengxintang paper. This can become an imperial merchant. Who doesnt have a big backer behind him? The Zhang family already had many rivals, and they didn''t want to provoke another difficult opponent. The account matter has been resolved. The news quickly spread back to Qinjiagou. Song Jin immediately decided, "You can take the thousand taels of gold, and we will get back what we deserve." "My lady is grand." Qin Chi praised. Song Jin knew that he was not being generous. It''s just that a gentleman loves money and gets it in a wise way. The trouble that Shun An helped to solve, so much money was compensated by the other party for Shun An''s sake. In fact, it was equivalent to a hush fee. This is what people should take. Qin Chi knew that she had made a clear distinction between the matter, so he did not refuse. After all, his family had a big business and needed a lot of money to support it. Song Jin suddenly asked: "Isn''t there any news from Shangjing yet?" "No." Qin Chi was helpless, "That person works as an errand in the palace and is not easy to get close to. If there is any slightest disturbance, he will associate with Pian Pianpian." After a pause, he added: "I spent money to bribe a person who works at the Tai Hospital. There is no good news yet." "Then we''ll just have to wait." Song Jin was helpless. However, after waiting for more than a month, what came was still bad news. No clues were found, and the briber was transferred away as soon as he got close to the other party. They were all regarded as people who wanted to secretly learn her unique craftsmanship. This is very disgusting. It was obviously a stolen craft, but it became the other party''s by changing hands. "Brother! I want you to go to my old house for dinner." Sanlang arrived before the sound of his arrival. Qin Chi stopped writing, put down the pen, and waited for Sanlang to enter the study, "What happy event is this?" "How can I be happy? I don''t know." Saburo''s face was confused. He was just a messenger and didn''t know anything about the family''s happiness. Qin Chi said he understood and told Song Jin about going to the old house for dinner. "Going to the old house?" Song Jinpi smiled and said, "Today is the birthday of Hu Zi and Niu Niu. Because the children are young and there is nothing to do, mother still added some food." Most of the food in the kitchen is ready. The old house suddenly asked their family to come over for dinner? Qin Chi was also helpless. It''s never good to disobey your elders. Li made the decision for them, "Pick a few big dishes to take to the old house, and let the rest of the family share the rest." The whole family immediately went to the old house. When they saw them coming, Old Qin and Old Liu''s faces improved a lot. Mrs. Lin took the food box and carried it to the kitchen. Little Liu poked his head around to see what was delicious. The fourth room killed a fat chicken today, bought a few kilograms of pork belly, a bacon to stir-fry, made bone soup, etc. The second and third rooms also added two or three vegetables each. Plus the dishes brought by Qin Chis house. A table full of dishes. It looks very rich at first glance. "The last time I saw such good dishes was during the Chinese New Year." Old Liu suddenly said this. Xiao Liu said happily: "According to me, the Chinese New Year will not be as rich as today." Li smiled and said nothing. Song Jin looked at a pair of twins, a dragon and a phoenix, and said nothing. On the other hand, Old Man Qin and Qin Chi were sitting with a few men drinking and chatting. As we talked, we talked about whether Qin Mingsong would be on the list this year. Old man Qin asked their eldest brother to come over for dinner. I just want Qin Chi to inquire about the situation. "The results should be released now. I wonder if your uncle has won." Old Qin said to Qin Chi. Qin Chi smiled and replied: "It''s still early. It will take at least half a month for this news to reach Huizhou." "It will take another half month and four months before I can come back." Old Qin couldn''t wait to see someone immediately. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi added: "It depends on whether my uncle is hit. If he is, he won''t come back so soon." If you miss, you will come back faster. Old Man Qin immediately changed his mind, "Then it''s better not to come back too soon." "Ha, I also hope that my uncle will go to high school." Qin Chi said with a thick smile, "Although we are separated, I still hope that my uncle''s wishes will come true." A smile hidden in a knife! This is Song Jin''s evaluation of Qin Chi at this moment. Old Qin was embarrassed. It''s so good, why do you want to separate the family? Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San did not speak. To be honest, they also hope that Qin Mingsong can become a Jinshi in high school. Song Xiu came to Song Jin''s side at some point, squatting down and stretching out her fingers to tease the twins. Song Jin subconsciously pulled away from the child. I dont want my children to be exposed to Song embroidery. Song Xiu''s pretty face twisted for a moment, then returned to normal, "Sister, I''m their sister-in-law. Is it necessary to be so guarded? It makes me seem like I will harm them." "You dare to harm me, let alone them?" Song Jin''s words hit the point again. Song Xiu was immediately speechless. He stood up angrily and snorted coldly, "I won''t touch you if you don''t want to. You think I''m rare." But having said that, these twins were raised really well. They are white and tender, and look like the boys and girls under the Guanyin Seat. They are very attractive. It was precisely because of this that she had been so clever as to reach out and pinch the baby''s little face. Song Jin didn''t want to talk to Song Xiu. Some people are just so weird. The more you ignore her, the more enthusiastic she becomes. When the meal was served, Song Xiu sat next to Song Jin, "We sisters haven''t spoken for a long time, so it''s just right to sit together." "As long as you''re happy." Song Jin only glanced at her lightly. No one else said anything. What is the relationship between the two sisters? It has been so long, and the Qin family has long discovered it. The whole family gathered in the main room to have dinner. After they sat down one after another, except for Bai Cuiwei, they were not present. Song Jin originally thought that Bai Cuiwei would not show up, but unexpectedly, she walked out of the house with Rou Zhu''s help. Concubines from wealthy families are not qualified to serve on the table. There is no such rule among the two elders of the Qin family. Old Man Qin was wary of Bai Daru behind Bai Cuiwei, so he was naturally a bit more tolerant. Sometimes Song Xiu wanted to make things difficult for her, but he would send Mr. Liu to stop him. Bai Cuiwei sat down and was very silent. After a few months of nursing after the miscarriage, and with the help of Dr. Youjing, she has recovered almost completely. But the whole person became quite gloomy. Chapter 174 Bai Cui is slightly crazy Chapter 174 Bai Cui is slightly crazy Environment can change a person. Bai Cuiwei is a living example. Song Jin was inexplicably happy not to mention it, but it didn''t show on the surface. I still remember the long white and green brocade dress in her previous life, her hair in a high bun decorated with gold hairpins, the makeup on her face very delicate, and her every move elegant and dignified, subtle and gentle. Although she had an unfair reputation in those years, she could stay and fly with Qin Mingsong without having to serve her parents-in-law. She was surrounded by servants and pampered, raising her husband and raising her children. The condition is so good that it makes people jealous. In fact, she needs to take care of these two old people. Looking back on my past life when I was burdened by fame, it was really stupid. In this life, Bai Cuiwei came to the Qin family with two elders weighing on her, a first wife, and no hope for the future. Do people become depressed? Some people ate this meal with gusto, while others didn''t. Bai Cuiwei would occasionally stare at the twins in trance, sometimes in a trance, sometimes in a gloomy mood. In a daze, she seemed to see a pair of lively and lovely children calling her mother. When he came back to his senses, he realized that it was just an illusion. Suddenly, Bai Cuiwei looked cruel. Pulling off the hairpin on her head, she rushed towards the playing twins fiercely. When she raised her arms to stab Hu Zi, Song Jin seemed to be on guard. Suddenly he picked up the chair and threw it at her! "ah!" Bai Cuiwei screamed and fell heavily to the ground. "Miss?!" Rouzhu exclaimed at the door. Song Jin rushed to Huzi anxiously and picked him up. "Wow" Huzi was so frightened that he cried. Niuniu on the side saw her brother crying and immediately started crying too. Even Erya beside him was frightened and cried. Mrs. Li came over in a panic. Qin Chi also threw down the bowls and chopsticks and came over, saying with a gloomy face: "Mom! Take the two children home first." "Okay, I''ll take them away now." Mrs. Li didn''t dare to stay in the old house anymore. She picked up Niuniu and looked at Song Jin, who was pale with fright but pretended to be strong. "Jin''er, let''s take the child back first." Song Jin hugged the crying Huzi and walked out without even looking at Bai Cuiwei. This sudden change shocked the Qin family. There was no time to react. No one thought that Bai Cuiwei would suddenly go crazy! When Song Jin and Mrs. Li left with their children in their arms, Mrs. Lin also came to her senses and hugged Erya. Only then did everyone react. "Ms. Bai! You vicious bitch! What did you want to do just now?" Old Mrs. Liu thought of what she just saw and was so angry that she rushed towards Bai Cuiwei and slapped her in the face. Bai Cuiwei was hit hard by Song Jin''s chair. I fell to the ground and couldn''t get up for a while. Rouzhu wanted to help her up, but as soon as she stood up, she saw old Liu rushing towards her and beating her. "Everyone deserves to die! It''s all that bitch''s fault! She deserves to die, and so does the child she gave birth to!" Bai Cuiwei gritted her teeth and said with hatred, "She was the one who got in the way, she was the one who disrupted my life! If she hadn''t been forcibly bringing me into the Qin family, how could I have become a concubine? We Bai family girls are not concubines!" "Ouch, it has long been a joke that the Bai family girl has not become a concubine." Song Xiu giggled and half-covered her lips with her embroidered handkerchief, "I am really like you. I am not a concubine, but I can have an affair with a man, and I have a secret knot. My sister obviously has good intentions, so that your child will not be harmed." It would be better for you to be the son of an adulterer, and repay kindness with evil." "No! It''s obviously you!" Bai Cuiwei was not in her right mind and seemed a little crazy, "You forced me to be a concubine! I don''t want to be a concubine, no!" She was forced to be a concubine, and no one could do justice for her. For the sake of her child, she could only break her teeth and swallow blood! But in the end she couldn''t even keep the child! On the contrary, the person who harmed her has a pair of lovely elf children. Why? It was too exciting. "Vicious woman!" Old Mr. Liu rushed over and cursed him so much that he was frothing at the mouth. Rouzhu protected the master with her body. Xiao Liu and Song Xiu came over and pretended to fight, but in fact they pulled Rouzhu away. Song Xiu even kicked Bai Cuiwei several times blatantly. I''m not venting my anger on Song Jin''s behalf. Song Xiu simply hated Bai Cuiwei. Bai Cuiwei was so angry that she vomited blood, rolled her eyes and fainted. "Miss, no! Wake up!" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Rouzhu was so anxious that she burst into tears. In a state of confusion, she went to ask Old Man Qin, "Old man, please save my young lady! Save my young lady, nothing will happen to my young lady..." Old Qin turned blue with anger. He didn''t expect that a young lady from a scholarly family would be so cruel as to kill a child who was just learning to talk. It''s just that things are messy enough now. The man fainted again and was injured. Old Man Qin didn''t want anyone to die at home, so he could only shout angrily: "Why are you making such a fuss? Why don''t you carry the person back to the house! Find a doctor." Qin Chi stood aside, the air pressure on his body was extremely low. It was only with great perseverance that he refrained from killing Bai Cuiwei in public. Qin Laosan stood beside Qin Chi, holding Qin Chi''s shoulders, "Don''t be impulsive, sir. You will take the imperial examination in the future, and you can''t lose your reputation just because of a woman." "That''s right, don''t be impulsive." Qin Laoer also stood between Qin Chi and Bai Cuiwei. Qin Chi''s expression is really not good now. Everyone can tell that he is going to kill someone at the next moment. Mrs. Liu was afraid that Qin Chi would take action, so she quickly called Mrs. Lin, and then she and Rouzhu took Bai Cuiwei back to her room. As for Old Man Qin, he asked someone to ask for a doctor. No one at home went to invite anyone. Even the servants at home were hiding in the kitchen and did not dare to come out. When they were in Yahang, the people there taught them that if they wanted to live a long time, they should keep their mouths shut, and they should not be curious about the scandals of the master''s family. The moment they signed the contract of betrayal, their lives were no longer theirs. "Grandpa, how should we resolve this matter?" Qin Chi gradually calmed down and asked Old Man Qin directly. Old Man Qin also had a headache. "Your brother-in-law is coming back soon. Let''s wait until he comes back. Dalang, I know what happened today. It''s the Fourth House that feels sorry for you. But she is Bai Daru''s daughter. She has to be sent to the official position or divorced. Wait for your uncle to do it himself. Qin Mingsong''s concubine made a mistake. He should be the one to deal with it. His family helped him solve it, but he still doesnt know what to think when he comes back. Qin Chi still looked bad. Qin Laosan poured a bowl of tea for him and asked him to take a sip to calm down first. "My nephew is handling my uncle''s concubines. It won''t sound good after all. Da Lang, don''t ruin your future just because of impulse." Old Qin always thought about Qin Chi. Qin Chi heard this and sneered. When he didn''t know that the second elder was sure from the bottom of his heart that he would not live long? "As a person whose life is short, what future do I have? For me, my children are equal to my life." Qin Chi had no intention of compromising. Old Qin was speechless for a moment. Until Rouzhu came and begged him to hire a doctor. Chapter 175 I want her to live Chapter 175 I want her to live No Qin Chi spoke. It is impossible for Dr. Jing to come to the old house to treat Bai Cuiwei. This is also true. Rouzhu went to ask for Doctor Jing, but she was sent away by the medicine boy without even seeing Doctor Jing''s face, and then she came back to ask for Old Man Qin. Old Qin turned to Qin Chi and said, "Da Lang, why don''t you let Dr. Jing come over? It''s not a good idea to cause death." "Doctor Jing is only staying at my house temporarily, and he is not a servant of my house. If he doesn''t come, there is nothing I can do." Qin Chi sneered. How big does this face need to be? To look after someone who wants to kill his son? Qin Chi didn''t want to look at Old Qin''s face anymore, so he stood up and said goodbye to him, "As long as this matter is not settled, my eldest brother will never set foot in the old house again. I also hope that my grandfather can understand his grandson''s attitude of a loving father." Heart." After saying this, the man turned around and strode away. Brothers Qin Laoer and Qin Laosan, fearing that Mr. Qin would take advantage of them, quickly found an excuse to leave. Nothing on the big dining table in the main room has been finished yet, but now no one has any appetite. Old Qin could only ask Rouzhu to invite his third uncle. The third uncle''s medical skills were only scratched the surface. He couldn''t solve the coma issue, so he just prescribed a dose of medicine to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, plus a packet of powder to stop bleeding, and asked Rouzhu to help Bai Cuiwei deal with the trauma. Maybe Bai Cui is also a micro-fateful person. After taking a bowl of medicine, the person woke up, but the person who woke up did not speak a word and just kept crying. Old Mrs. Liu was sitting under the eaves with a bench, pointing at Bai Cuiwei''s door and scolding her. Lets talk about Song Jins family. Leave the old house with the child in your arms. It took a lot of effort from the boss to coax the two milk dumplings together. When Qin Chi went back. Both children were tired from crying, and there were still tears hanging from the corners of their eyes. Just looking at them made people feel extremely distressed. Mrs. Li worriedly said, "Should Dr. Jing come over and take a look? I''m afraid the child will be frightened and may have a fever at night." When Doctor Jing came over in a hurry, he looked at the two milk dumplings carefully and said, "It''s okay. If you''re worried, just make a soothing soup and give the two children a small bowl of it." "Okay, I''m sorry to bother Jing Lao." Song Jin politely thanked him. Qin Chi saw Doctor Jing out. The child did not have convulsions or fever that night. Instead, Li became ill and developed a high fever. Song Jin has been staying at the hospital bed to take care of Mr. Li. The secret guards sensed their master''s anger and were on the verge of exploding. None of them even dared to breathe. Late at night. Qin Chi suddenly said, "Qin Yi." "What are your orders, Master?" Qin Yi appeared quietly and knelt on one knee in front of Qin Chi. The atmosphere in the house was depressing. Qin Chi had a strong murderous intention, but he suppressed it forcefully, "I want Bai Cuiwei''s arm. I want whichever hand she uses to kill my son." "Sir, do you want to take a moment? Bai Cuiwei''s injury at this time was caused by Madam. If one of her arms is destroyed now, Madam''s reputation may be affected." According to his usual behavior, Qin Yi must have followed the instructions without saying a word. The problem is that the young master values ??his wife very much. Qin Chi said coldly: "Then find a way to eliminate Madam''s suspicion." "yes!" Qin Yi took the order and exited. The next day. When Song Jin woke up, it was already bright outside. Wait until she washes up. I heard it was quite lively at home. Xiao Liu and Lin came over. After the separation, Lin''s complexion became much rosier than before. When Song Jin appeared, Mrs. Lin was the first to see her, "Is the elder sister-in-law awake? The second sister-in-law and I heard that the elder sister-in-law was sick, so we came over to visit." "Third Aunt is interested." Song Jin''s voice was still hoarse after waking up after staying up late. Xiao Liu turned around and looked at Song Jin, "I heard from Aunt Huang that you didn''t sleep all night. I thought it was an exaggeration, but it turned out that you really didn''t sleep." "There''s nothing we can do about that." Song Jin went inside to check on Li''s condition. I no longer have a fever, but I am very sick and my spirit is not very good. A few words of concern. Li asked her to have breakfast, "It''s hard for you to take care of Huzi and Niuniu. I can''t take care of them these days." "My mother can rest in peace and recuperate, and they will leave it to me." Song Jin stayed for another half moment. Then he withdrew, leaving Xiao Liu and Lin to talk to Li. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! When Song Jin went out to the next room, he saw two milk dumplings in the room, playing with Shiro and the others. Qin Daya and Xiaoyu were looking after the room. Song Jin did not enter the house, but went to the kitchen to find something to eat. As soon as I arrived in the kitchen, I met Mr. Liu sneaking over. "Second Aunt, are you looking for me?" Song Jin was a little funny. Xiao Liu whispered: "I just want to chat with you. I didn''t see you. Aunt Huang said you came to the kitchen." "There are some meat buns in the pot. If you want to eat, go get them." As soon as Song Jin said these words, Xiao Liu''s eyes lit up. "Then why are you so embarrassed?" As Xiao Liu said this, people already reached out to lift the pot. Song Jin came home from the old house last night, and encountered Mrs. Li who was sick in the middle of the night. She didn''t bother to pay attention to the follow-up, "How is it at the old house? Is the woman awake?" "Third uncle said it was a skin injury." Xiao Liu took a bite of the bun, swallowed it, and then said, "She woke up after just one sip of the bitter soup. I guess she was probably faking it." The expression on Song Jin''s face did not change. Mrs. Liu was disgusted when she mentioned Bai Cuiwei, "I didn''t expect that woman to be so vicious. She even said she was a talented girl who had learned a lot of things. I read those books to my stomach." "Did anyone leave the room today?" Song Jin asked. "Nothing." Xiao Liu ate the buns in her hand in two or three bites, "She had been eating and drinking in the house before. Yesterday, for some reason, she suddenly came out to eat. Oh, she didn''t just come here for the twins, right?" At this point, Xiao Liu was frightened for a while, "I heard that some women will go crazy after giving birth. It turns out to be true. No, Silang and Wulang are still young and cannot live with a crazy woman!" The thought of living together in the future. Little Liu didn''t even eat the buns and left in a hurry. Song Jin covered the buns in the pot. Stepping out of the kitchen thoughtfully. Song Jin, who was thinking about something, almost ran into Qin Chi''s arms. Qin Chi held her shoulders and looked down at her, "What are you thinking, madam?" "I''m thinking about the old house." Song Jin did not hide her thoughts, "The second aunt said that she usually eats and drinks in the house, but she went out to eat yesterday." Qin Chi immediately understood who this "she" was referring to. Qin Chi comforted him: "Leave this matter to me. Madam, you don''t have to worry about it anymore. I will take care of it." "I want her alive." Song Jin lowered his eyelids and said, "Death is liberation, only living is suffering." These words surprised Qin Chi slightly. He also saw the murderous intent in Song Jin''s eyes when the chair was smashed yesterday. Qin Chi made a decision in his mind, "After dad comes back, we will move to the county town, okay?" "good" This happened. It was natural for Dafang to move away from Qinjiagou. Chapter 176 Heart-breaking Chapter 176 Heart-killing More than ten days passed. Qinjiagou is very lively during this time. It is said that Qin Juren''s concubine fell down again and again. First she lost her child, and now she broke one of her arms. The second house actually moved out of the new house and went back to live in the old house. Qin Laoer''s move was beyond the expectations of many people. They all said that the second roommate was stupid and could live a good life, but if he had to live a miserable life, he would say whatever he wanted. Finally, it boils down to one sentence: wild boar cannot eat fine chaff. As for the fact that Bai Cuiwei went crazy and wanted to kill Huzi, Old Man Qin covered it up and forbade the family to spread the news. Although it didn''t spread outside. But the atmosphere has always been bad. It seems like something is brewing. Song Jin and Qin Chi did know why the second house moved. It was Xiao Liu who was frightened by Bai Cuiwei''s attempt to kill someone. After all, who would want to be with a murderer? Even if the other party fails. Qin Laosan has not moved out, and the population of the three-bedroom house is simple. However, when Lin couldn''t spare time to take care of the children, she would send Erya to play with the twins from time to time. She was not without scruples. Even Old Man Qin''s mental state was not as good as before. Song Xiu was bored staying at home, so she unexpectedly came to Song Jin. When Song Jin saw Song Xiu leisurely and at ease, as if he were at home, the complicated emotions in his heart were beyond words. When it comes to being thick-skinned, Song Xiu dares to be called second, and no one dares to be called first. The biggest reason is that she is shameless but doesn''t know it. She is simply invincible. Completely subverting Song Jin''s three views. According to the contradictions and conflicts between the two, as long as Song Xiu had any sense of shame, he would have stayed far away. "Sister, my husband is coming back soon." Song Xiu said happily, "When he comes back, I will be able to be famous again, but it''s a pity that you won''t be able to benefit from it." "Have you forgotten that Qin Mingsong missed this time?" Song Jin knew how to hurt his heart. Song Xiu''s smile froze, "But a few days ago, Bai Cuiwei said that her husband was selected and ranked well." Song Jin''s eyes flashed slightly, "Do you believe what she said? Where did a person who is at home every day get the news?" "It said it came from Fucheng." Song Xiu originally believed it. But Song Jin reminded her that Qin Mingsong in her previous life just didn''t make the list this time. However, this life is different from the previous life, maybe I got lucky? Song Xiu was unsure and didn''t want Song Jin to see the joke, so he said sternly: "You don''t care where this news comes from. Anyway, if my husband can win, I will be the royal wife sooner or later!" "hehe." Song Jin sneered inwardly. Song Xiu curled her lips, "Sure enough, I still don''t like you, huh!" After saying this, she stood up and left. Song Jin couldn''t see that Song Xiu was always so proud, as if he was a villain. Just at this time, Mrs. Lin brought Erya over and first sent Erya to play with the twins. "I just met the fourth man at the door. His face was not very good. Did he get angry with you again?" Lin came to Song Jin''s side calmly. Song Jin smiled and said, "When will Xiu''er not be like this? Third aunt, don''t pay attention to her." Lin said in a low voice: "That man has gotten out of bed these days, and he seems to be in much better spirits." Song Jin poured a cup of tea and handed it to Lin. Mrs. Lin took it and took a sip, "I heard from her maid that she received a letter from Fucheng, saying that my brother-in-law was shot, or that he was a Jinshi." "First-class Jinshi." Song Jin reminded. "That''s right, they said that if my uncle is not the top pick, he will also be the second or top pick." Mrs. Lin told Song Jin what she had heard. Song Jin listened with interest, "Where are grandfather and grandma? Are you happy to hear the news?" "I heard it, and I am very happy." Mrs. Lin told the two elders what they were happy about, "My father-in-law said that the good news has not come yet, so I asked the family to keep a low profile and not to talk nonsense to the outside world." Song Jin just wanted to say that he was very clear-headed and did not say it to the outside world. That''s fine, at least it won''t affect the big house. Song Jin talked with Lin for a while. After Mrs. Lin finished drinking the tea, she said she was going to help Qin Laosan work in the fields. Song Jin said generously: "Okay, then Third Aunt will go and do some work first, and Erya will stay with me. When you and Third Uncle come back from the fields, it won''t be too late to pick her up." Twins also like to play with children. Therefore, Song Jin didn''t mind helping Lin take care of the child. Mrs. Lin thanked her sincerely and left in a hurry. There is a lot of work in the fields at this time, and Qin Laosan alone cannot do it. Qin Chi came out, sat next to Song Jin, picked up her bowl of tea and took a sip, "The third uncle couldn''t bear to spend money to hire people, so he had to do it on his own, which made the third aunt suffer too." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "I remember Qin Mingsong said he was going to write to his classmates and find a job for his second and third uncles." As soon as Song Jin said these words, Qin Chi smiled meaningfully. The two looked at each other and understood without saying anything. As expected, Qin Mingsong just said it and didn''t actually write it. Song Jin said: "Won''t you help?" "How do you want me to help?" Qin Chi asked. "You can help as much as you like, I won''t interfere." Song Jin didn''t believe that he couldn''t help, but he kept refusing to help, so he should have his own considerations. Qin Chi drank the tea in one gulp and said, "When we move out of Qinjiagou, we will find an easy job for them. At this moment, in the eyes of outsiders, I am just a poor scholar who relies on his wife to support him." After so many years of pretending, there must be a beginning and an end. Everything must be reasonable and withstand investigation. Song Jin understood the meaning of his words. Bai Cuiwei did what he did, and Dafang just used this as an excuse to move out of Qinjiagou. The old house will definitely shut up. "My father and uncle are coming back soon." When Qin Chi said this, his eyes fell on Song Jin''s face, "My wife is about to close the net." "You know?" Song Jin knew that he couldn''t hide it from him. Qin Chi sighed in his heart, "I''m not as good as my wife." All he wanted was an arm. Where is the lady? Come and kill people with one move. The so-called letter from Fucheng was sent out by his wife. It gave people hope but was suddenly disappointed. What was destroyed was not the body, but the spirit of the person. Qin Chi knew that Qin Mingsong failed the exam a few days ago. Pass this news to Song Jin. Song Jin didn''t say anything at that time and just started making arrangements. Qin Chi discovered it and reported it to him. Bai Cuiwei is an arrogant person, and she is undoubtedly unwilling to be reduced to a concubine. Now all she wants is for her brother-in-law to go to high school and take her out of her misery when he takes office. Today''s days are full of suffering for her. After receiving the news from Qin Mingsong High School, she was ecstatic! It was as if he suddenly came back to life and regained his energy quickly. If he suddenly learned that Qin Mingsong failed the exam and everything he hoped for was in vain, he didn''t know how exciting it would be. Qin Chi thought of this... I am looking forward to tomorrow a little more. Chapter 177 failed Chapter 177 Failure In March, spring returns to the earth and everything revives. The mountains are layer upon layer and verdant. The gurgling stream that goes around the village reflects the green branches of the willow trees on the bank, and a few ducks play leisurely in the water. In the fields, farmers were working hard, waving hoes and turning over the soil. In the distance, several plowing cattle lowered their heads and pulled the plow, walking steadily in the fields, kicking off the spring plowing. Next to the ancient well at the entrance of the village. Several children were playing, and their laughter was clear and sweet. Under the old locust tree, several aunts and aunts were sitting together. While weaving bamboo tools by hand, we talked, laughed and gossiped. A carriage was approaching the village. A sharp-eyed aunt asked in surprise: "Hey, does that car belong to the Qin Ju family?" "Oh, yes, this is the science test. Did you win?" An aunt stood up and looked over and said, "I have to go to the patriarch''s house to report the news." Without waiting for anyone else to say anything, they ran to the patriarch''s house. If someone is familiar with the scientific examination process and sees Qin Mingsong returning to the village, he will probably understand that returning quietly like this will most likely result in failure. But the aunt and aunt in the village couldn''t stand it and didn''t know. So, the aunt went to inform the clan leader. The carriage stopped in front of the Qin family mansion. Lao Huo jumped out of the car first. Boss Qin pulled the reins of the horse and calmed the restless horse. First, the maid at home saw the carriage. The maid had never seen Mr. Qin, so she just reported to Mr. Qin and Mr. Liu: "Old man, old lady, there is a carriage parked outside the gate." "Is there a carriage?" When Old Man Qin heard this, he got up and walked out. Mrs. Liu also rushed out. When she saw Qin Mingsong getting out of the car, she suddenly smiled and said, "It''s my fourth son who''s back. I''m really looking forward to it." He stepped forward and grabbed Qin Mingsong''s hand, looking left and right. "Oh, I''ve been working **** the road. I''ve lost weight. I must have eaten poorly. I''ll ask the kitchen to prepare a table of delicious food for you later." Old Mrs. Liu said as if she was distressed, but her face was very sad. It''s like being proud. Boss Qin wants to move the box cage off the car. After waiting for a long time, no one else from the family came out, not even a few children. If it were normal at this time, someone would definitely show up. Boss Qin saw his parents surrounding Qin Mingsong. He couldn''t help but ask: "Mom, dad, where are the other people in the family?" "Why do you ask this?" Old Mrs. Liu replied dryly, "How could they know you came back suddenly? They are all out at this time." Someone happened to come out in a hurry. It was Song Xiu who had been dressed up, like a delicate flower, and her eyes were full of joy when she saw Qin Mingsong coming back. Then there is Rouzhu holding Bai Cuiwei out, like a green willow in the wind, standing in front of the door and staring at her sweetheart with tearful eyes. Very pitiable. Qin Mingsong just said hello to his father and said a few words to Song Xiu. He raised his head and looked at Bai Cuiwei, his eyes suddenly condensed. "Are you sick? Go back to the house quickly, don''t let the wind blow." Qin Mingsong stepped forward and held Bai Cuiwei''s hand. Bai Cui was about to speak but stopped. Qin Mingsong said warmly: "If you have anything to say, please go inside first." "That''s right, what are you doing out there? My son has been riding in the carriage for so long, so he is probably tired." Old Mrs. Liu urged everyone into the house and went to the kitchen to prepare food with a glowing face. The family enters the house. No one paid attention to Boss Qin. Boss Qin was used to being ignored by his parents and was about to move things in the car. "Dad, let me come." Qin Chi brought Lao Litou over, "You go home first, take a shower, change into clean clothes and then go see your mother. My mother fell ill not long ago and has not recovered even after ten days of treatment." "What? Your mother is sick?" Boss Qin didn''t care about anything else and was about to walk to the gate when he was caught by Lao Litou in time. Old Li Tou reminded: "I am in Xiaojia and no longer live in this house." "Oh oh oh." Boss Qin turned around anxiously and strode towards Xiaojia. Qin Chi smiled. Sure enough, as long as his mother was mentioned, his father would leave without asking anything. Then he looked at Lao Huo, who seemed invisible. Lao Huo chuckled and said, "Young master, I''m lucky to have lived up to my command." "Thanks for your hard work." Qin Chi asked them to remove the cage from the car and then pull the carriage to the stable. And he walked into the old house leisurely. Just in time to hear Bai Cuiwei''s sharp exclamation: "What did you say?!" "Impossible! You obviously got the hit, how could you miss?!" Bai Cuiwei grabbed Qin Mingsong with her left hand like crazy, "How could it be the miss? I even received a message saying that you got the hit, and you got the top three in the exam! " "Who gave you the letter?" Qin Mingsong questioned. Seeing his appearance, Bai Cuiwei''s face was full of disbelief, "Really missed?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "No." Qin Mingsong''s voice revealed helplessness. "No" Bai Cuiwei''s eyes widened, a look of despair appeared on his face, and a mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out, and then he fell down softly. Qin Mingsong caught her in panic, "Wei''er? What''s wrong with you? Call the doctor!" "Miss! Miss, don''t scare me..." Rouzhu also exclaimed. Qin Chi watched the big show quietly, then glanced at the others. Old Qin was sitting on the steps in front of the hall, saying nothing. Old Liu''s face was also full of disbelief, "It''s not like there was a letter from Fucheng saying that Si''er had won, but why did Si''er say he didn''t? Si''er, you were joking on purpose, right?" "I''m not kidding, if I win the exam, the good news will come to the village earlier than me. Isn''t that what happened when I won the exam?" Qin Mingsong explained exhaustedly at this time. I was already hit by the failure. It took him several days to get over the shock. When I got home, I had no words of comfort and only a lot of questions. He hurriedly brought Bai Cuiwei back to the room. When I entered, there was a medicinal smell. Qin Mingsong asked Rouzhu, "Is your lady sick recently?" "Yes, I''m sick." Rouzhu lowered her head and answered tremblingly, and suddenly she burst into tears, "Uncle, please help the young lady quickly, she is about to die. My young lady has a hard life. She suddenly had a miscarriage and injured her arm..." Only then did Qin Mingsong discover it. When he left home, Bai Cuiwei was pregnant and now not only has a flat belly. Qin Mingsong turned and stared at Rouzhu: "Tell me everything that happened at home." Rouzhu hesitated for a long time, unable to say anything. On the other hand, Song Xiu, who had followed, half-leaned against the doorframe, said in a strange tone: "Do you want me to tell you, husband? I''m afraid some people won''t have the shame to say it..." There is Song embroidery here. Rouzhu couldn''t hide it even if she wanted to. Qin Mingsong quickly figured out the ins and outs, and then looked at Bai Cuiwei who was unconscious on the bed, his eyes were filled with confusion and confusion. After a while, he turned around and asked Song Xiu: "Where is Doctor Jing? Why haven''t you come after so long?" "Doctor Jing, don''t think about it. She won''t agree to treat her. I''ll send someone to ask for the third uncle." Song Xiu gave Qin Mingsong enough face. Compared to others. Song Xiu accepted Qin Mingsong''s failure. This was probably due to Song Jin, who had already been mentally prepared. Waited for a while. The servant girl went to invite the third uncle. After the third uncle felt the pulse, he said that the person had been stimulated and probably had a broken heart pulse, and asked Qin Mingsong to go to the town to ask a doctor. Then the third uncle went out without even prescribing any medicine. When he came out, he shook his head and scolded Old Man Qin, telling him to calm down and stop making trouble all the time. Qin Chi watched all this, and the corners of his mouth couldn''t help but curl up slightly. Just hurt your heart. It was true that Song Jin''s layout and the ingredients he ordered people to add to the soup were not in vain. Chapter 178 Divorce concubine Chapter 178 Divorce the Concubine Qin Mingsong walked out of Bai Cuiwei''s room. I saw Qin Chi in front of the main room. "Da Lang is here?" "Yes, I just came here when I heard that my uncle was back. I said before that as long as the matter is not resolved, I will never set foot in the old house again." Qin Chi followed Qin Mingsong into the hall, lifted up his robe and sat down, his manner noble and elegant, "I''m here to resolve this matter today." As for what happened? Qin Mingsong didn''t know it earlier, but he knows it now. Even he himself did not expect that Bai Cuiwei would do something to harm the child. "I came back after a long journey, and I didn''t even take a sip of hot water. Can Dalang take it easy?" Qin Mingsong didn''t know how to solve the problem for a while. It takes time to think about it. At this time, the maid brought tea. A bowl of tea was placed in front of Qin Mingsong. The other side was placed on the tea table next to Qin Chi. Qin Chi''s white and slender fingers picked up the lid of the bowl and glanced at it. The tea leaves had just been brewed and were still floating on the water. He used the lid to gently stir the tea leaves to let them flow in the water. Make the tea taste even in the upper and lower parts of the tea. Then he picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. "Once upon a time, my family couldn''t afford tea, but now we can all afford Maofeng." Qin Chi said with a sigh. Qin Mingsong picked up the tea and glanced at it, "I received this as a gift last year. Didn''t Dalang drink it?" "I''m not sure. After all, the families were separated, and my family didn''t receive any." Qin Chi just finished speaking. Old Qin, who stepped into the threshold, paused and said, "Da Lang wants to drink. I''ll have someone give you a can later." "Then forget it and leave it to Grandpa to drink." Qin Chi wanted to be hostile, but he didn''t want to take advantage. Qin Mingsong put down the tea bowl, "When I went out, my family changed drastically. Why did we suddenly separate? Can Dalang tell me?" "You have to ask grandpa and grandma about this. They were determined to separate the family. If my uncle wants to know more, he can read the family separation letter or ask grandma. Forget it, now is not the time to find out why the family was separated." Qin Chi said that he was not sure and had no intention of chatting with Qin Mingsong. "I just want to ask my grandfather and uncle how they plan to deal with Aunt Bai who made a mistake? My grandfather said before that he would wait until his uncle comes back before making a decision. " Old Qin moved his lips. In the end, without saying anything, he turned to look at Qin Mingsong. Qin Mingsong wanted to delay just now. Suddenly Qin Chi came around again. Qin Mingsong struggled in his heart, "Da Lang, she has been punished, can you put this matter aside?" "Is uncle trying to protect her?" Qin Chi asked back with a cold face. Qin Mingsong stood up in a dignified manner and bowed deeply to Qin Chi. Qin Chi got up in time to avoid it. He bowed to Qin Mingsong again. At the same time, Qin Chi said calmly: "As an elder, I am giving this great gift to a younger generation. I dare not accept it if my uncle dares to do it. If it spreads outside, it will become my fault." Qin Mingsong''s eyes flashed with gloom. When he straightened his back, he said apologetically: "I didn''t think carefully. I just want to express my deep apology, and there is no other meaning." Since ancient times, we have paid attention to the order of superiority and inferiority, and the order of elders and younger ones. The younger generation cannot accept the courtesy of the elders. If Qin Chi accepts Qin Mingsong''s worship today, even if the other party is at fault, it will be his fault. "Dalang, your brother-in-law has no other intention. He is just anxious to apologize for Bai." Old Qin came out to talk to Xini. During this time, Old Man Qin inevitably felt a little resentful toward Bai Cuiwei. Originally, Song Xiu was a drag on her son. Now there is a vicious Bai Cuiwei added to the mix. Qin Mingsong knew that if he didn''t give Qin Chi an accurate word today, he might not be able to do anything right, so he made the decision as if he could bear the pain, "It is indeed the Bai family''s fault. Fortunately, it did not lead to a big disaster. But Dalang , Bai is the daughter of Bai Daru, the most I can do is send her back. " The so-called repatriation means returning the concubine to her natal family. In other words, it means to divorce the concubine. The White House announced to the outside world that Bai Cuiwei died of illness, so repatriation would be almost like expulsion. Old Man Qin agreed very much with his son''s decision, "Dalang, your brother-in-law''s move is considered fair." There is nothing wrong with it on the surface. Qin Chi saw something fishy in it. At first, Bai Cuiwei would rather be a concubine than a concubine, but now it might be just what she wants. After leaving the Qin family, her reputation was not good, but she also regained her freedom. When she leaves Yi County in the future and remains anonymous, who will know who she is? But Qin Mingsong said he wanted to divorce his concubine. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi could no longer be unyielding, "My uncle still understands justice." After chatting for a few more words, Qin Chi said goodbye. Old Man Qin sent people away like a **** of plague. Only the father and son were left in the waiting room. Qin Mingsong looked tired, "Father, I''ve only been away from home for two months, and things have changed at home. And from the looks of it today, I''m afraid there''s a gap between me and the older man." "Your concubine almost killed someone else''s son. It''s normal for Da Lang to feel worried about such a big thing." Old man Qin''s neither salty nor bland answer successfully choked Qin Mingsong. Seeing his bad expression, Old Qin immediately changed the subject, "Si''er has been running all the way, eat something and then rest. If you have anything to say, wait until you have a rest." As for Bai Cuiwei vomiting blood and falling into coma. Old Man Qin didn''t even mention it. Qin Mingsong already knew that his father was not his mother. His mother may be easy to fool, but his father has his own ideas and is not so easy to fool. Only enough benefits can impress his father. Lets talk about Qin Chi after he returns. He told Song Jin what happened in the old house one by one. The description was not very vivid, but Song Jin still listened attentively. After listening, Song Jin thought deeply: "Uncle wants to send Bai Cuiwei away?" "Yes, in the name of divorce." Qin Chi has already agreed to Qin Mingsong''s move, so it will be a matter of time before Bai Cuiwei is sent away. Song Jin had no intention of taking Bai Cuiwei''s life, "She hurt her heart, is it true?" "That''s what Third Uncle said." Qin Chi said calmly, "My third uncle is not good at prescribing prescriptions, but he is still somewhat accurate in taking pulses. If you are worried, maybe you can ask Dr. Jing to come over?" "No need." Song Jin looked at Qin Chi suspiciously again. Qin Chi leaned close to her ear and whispered, "I had someone give her the medicine to kill her." Hearing this, Song Jin was stunned. Qin Chi felt a little uneasy, thinking that she would think he had gone too far and have a bad impression of him, so he wanted to explain a few words. Song Jin said with a calm face: "That person can even kill a child. He shouldn''t like children. He will suffer when he is reincarnated in her belly. My husband''s move can be regarded as doing good deeds and accumulating virtue." Qin Chi''s heart was filled with emotion after hearing this. After a long while, he suddenly laughed happily. Even the rest of the family heard it and wondered what he was laughing at. Chapter 179 Obey and evade Chapter 179 Three more days passed. Several major events happened in Qinjiagou, all of which were related to the Qin Ju family. First, Qin Mingsong failed to pass the exam, and second, his concubine Bai died of illness. "Died of illness? Didn''t you retire?" Hearing the news, Song Jin was disgusted. Qin Chi also had an ugly expression on his face, "I sent her away last night, and told the public that my concubine will not hold a funeral, but that she will dig a grave in the mountains and bury her." A person who fakes death once can fake death a second time. The moves are not new, they just need to be easy to use. Song Jin sneered, "Is this an excuse to die to clear my name? After going around in a circle, I used it as Qin Mingsong''s outer room again?" "My wife guessed it right." Qin Chi couldn''t understand either. Wouldnt it be nice to live with a name? Qin Chi did not expose it in public. The reason is that this move was not Qin Mingsong''s idea. It was Bai Cuiwei who insisted on escaping, not wanting to live her life as a concubine. At that time, Song Jin took action to bring people into the Qin family, using Bai Cuiwei''s original household registration. Qin Mingsong asked the village chief to issue a certificate, and then went to the Yamen to erase the record of concubinage. When the White House announced to the public that Bai Cuiwei had died of illness, it had given her a new household registration, from the daughter of Bai Daru to the daughter of an ordinary family. Just came in handy. Qin Chi thought of the new investigation, "After leaving Qinjiagou, the person lived in Baiyun Nunnery." When this point was mentioned, Qin Chi''s expression was dark, and a stern look flashed in his eyes, "Madam, do you want to kill them all? But Bai Cuiwei died, but he solved the trouble for my uncle. I am not very happy about it. " Song Jin was originally thinking about this. On second thought, it''s true. Bai Cuiwei at this time is equivalent to a useless person to Qin Mingsong. It is tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away. Song Jin thought for a moment and said, "Just wait and see, we will leave Qinjiagou tomorrow." When Boss Qin came back, Qin Chi decided to move. Just after returning from all the hard work, as a son, I still considerately give my old father a few days of rest. The new house has been cleaned. The next day. Two carriages and one mule carriage. Slowly left Qinjiagou. People in the village knew about such a big movement at once. Boss Qin and his family are moving to the city. It is said that Qin Chi found a job as a teacher as a scholar. There is an income of eight taels of silver every month. It''s enough to cover the family''s expenses in the city. Outsiders thought they had moved to the county town, but in fact Dafang and his family had moved to Hongcun Town. Hongcun Town is located at the southwest foot of Huangshan Mountain. A picturesque place like a peach blossom garden. At first, Qin Chi wanted to move to the county seat, but Li did not agree, and after discussion, it was changed to Hongcun Town. The place Qin Chi chose to stay was not very far from Qinjiagou. It could be traveled back and forth in a morning by carriage. When Song Jin left the village, he saw Song Xiu. Song Xiu stood under the locust tree at the entrance of the village, looking in the direction of the carriage, but did not get closer. Mrs. Li noticed Song Jin''s gaze, "Without Mr. Bai in the old house, and the second room moved out, it will be clean all of a sudden. Your sister''s life should be much more comfortable." "Maybe." It was hard for Song Jin to imagine that Song Xiu would not make a fuss. Bai Cuiwei just left, not really dead. In fact, he was living a comfortable life, and Song Xiu really wasn''t jealous of Song Jin now. In her mind, Qin Chi, the sick man, was just a teacher, far inferior to Qin Mingsong, who became a scholar. This time the big house is moving. Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San came to help and insisted on sending Dafang and his family to their new home. Boss Qin knew what the fourth brother had done and was very angry, but he would not offend the other brothers because of it. The brother said he would deliver it, so he naturally agreed. And he agreed, and Qin Chi and Song Jin didn''t care. Not to mention breaking the bones and connecting the tendons. The relationship between the three brothers has always been deep, and Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San also wanted to recognize each other. Two carriages at this time. In one car sat the mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, twins, and Xiaoyu. Boss Qin is driving. The other car is Qin Chi. Some more boxes and cages were placed in the carriage. Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San both sat on the shaft of the car and took turns driving. The mule carts were stacked with Dafang''s belongings. Old Li Tou and Mrs. Huang were both sitting on the mule cart. There was also a big man on horseback in the distance, it was that guy Lao Huo, following him blatantly. The car doesn''t go fast. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Walked for nearly two hours. Finally arrived at the new house. The large house is built along a quiet lane. Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San were shocked when they saw the carriage parked in front of the gate. There is a plaque hanging above the tall gatehouse and a stone lion in front of the gate. This house looks like it belongs to a wealthy family. "Brother, this, is this your new house?" Qin Laoer asked stammeringly. Boss Qin raised his head and glanced at the gatehouse, "Da Lang said he was just staying here, not my family." "It turns out I''m just borrowing it." Now the two brothers calmed down. Qin Chi smiled and said: "This house belongs to the second young master of the county magistrate''s family. He said that the house should be left alone, so he temporarily lent it to my family to live in for a period of time without paying rent." "Dalang is still capable." Qin Laosan praised. Qin Laoer kept nodding. Everyone moved their things into the house. Song Jin got out of the car with her child in her arms. Mrs. Li also went in with her children. When you arrive at your new residence, the first thing you need to do is get familiar with your new home. Naturally, you need to visit the house. Across the threshold is the spacious front hall. The exquisite wood carvings on the beams are lifelike. After the front hall, there is a courtyard with several entrances and exits. Every time you enter, there is a screen wall separating you. The walls are inlaid with tile paintings, with patterns of landscapes, flowers and birds. There are wing rooms on both sides and winding corridors connecting various courtyards. There is a rockery and stone forest in the backyard and a pond with lotus leaves. There are several ancient trees in the corner with lush branches and elegant scenery. After Song Jin went shopping, he fell in love with it immediately. Looking back, she found that only Qin Chi was following her, so she asked, "Ms. sir, is it okay to live here?" "What could be the problem?" Qin Chi said with a smile, "My wife, you just need to live in peace." Song Jin glanced at him, "I''m asking you, aren''t you afraid of attracting people''s attention by being so public?" "It''s an old house, and it''s a borrowed house, so it''s not very conspicuous." Qin Chi said leisurely, "Don''t you want to live more comfortably, Madam?" If he guessed correctly. Before marrying him, Song Jin was well-dressed and well-fed. In fact, he was also surprised. Since coming to Qinjiagou, Song Jin has adapted very well. The transition from wealth to poverty has been very fast, and the same is true for Song Xiu. Weirdly fast. But Qin Chi didn''t think deeply about this issue. It can only be attributed to Song''s exceptional tutoring. Song Jin looked around at the scenery in the backyard, and then replied nonchalantly: "Who is willing to live in a shabby room when you can live well? Unless you have no choice." Since Qin Chi wasn''t worried himself, she wouldn''t worry about him. Chapter 180 Placement Chapter 180 Placement It took less than half a month. The Dafang family has completely settled into their new environment. It''s just that the teacher Qin Chi promised to teach turned out to be the shopkeeper of a bookstore. Song Jin looked at him with something wrong in his eyes, and said half-jokingly: "Fortunately, my husband is not in power. Orders are changing so fast these days." "I made a mistake. Being a bookstore manager is more comfortable than being a teacher." Qin Chi said happily. In the eyes of outsiders, being a teacher is far more respectable than being a shopkeeper. Letting a young Sanyuan be the shopkeeper is simply overkill. If it reaches the ears of the gentleman who teaches him, he may vomit blood. Sure enough, the bookstore opened that day. Meng Qingrui, Le Yan and Lu Yanji came over. "Brother, when the mountain chief heard that you were coming to be the shopkeeper, he was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot and asked you to go to him to apologize." Meng Qingrui said with gloating as soon as he arrived. Qin Chi glanced at him and said, "Did you really vomit blood?" Meng Qingrui was about to nod. Lu Yanji, who was standing next to him, smiled and tried to break up the situation, "Don''t listen to his nonsense. My uncle didn''t vomit blood, but he was still angry. If you scold you, you are not doing your job properly." "That''s okay, this isn''t the first time." Qin Chi had been angry with Lu Shanchang many times over the years, "The old man is in good health." Le Yan looked at the bookstore. Maybe it''s because it''s a new business, but there are only a few customers here and there. "Your business isn''t that good?" "It will be fine in the future." Qin Chi didn''t even think about making a lot of money when he opened this shop. The three of them started browsing the bookstore. It is different from traditional bookstores. For example, the outer hall looks similar to other bookstores, but there is an inner hall that is more than twice as big as the outer hall. Rows of books are displayed in the inner hall. Books are neatly arranged by category, and there are even book lists arranged by bookshelves to make it easier for guests to find books. At the same time, in addition to bookshelves and a large number of books, there are also tables and chairs where you can sit down and read books and enjoy tea. The layout of this inner hall is very simple. There are no luxurious decorations and furnishings. It''s obviously not a place where wealthy students would come. Meng Qingrui was first surprised, "Brother, what do you want to do?" "If you are poor, you can be alone, but if you are rich, you can help the world." Qin Chi said in a gentle but powerful tone, "I have become a scholar and have some income. Isn''t it strange to open a shop where students from poor families can read and copy books for free?" "Not surprising!" Meng Qingrui gave him a thumbs up and said, "As expected of you, brother, this is a level we can only be ashamed of." "Don''t talk nonsense, and don''t involve others." Qin Chi glanced at him with a smile. Meng Qingrui immediately changed his mind, "Yes, it''s me, it has nothing to do with anyone else." "Hahaha!" Le Yan laughed without malice. Lu Yanji was much calmer. He just smiled and looked at the separate inner hall in the bookstore. "This is good. It is enough to provide rare help to some students who are from poor families and cannot afford to buy books." For some reason, when I looked at Qin Chi again, I seemed to find that there was light all over him. It makes people blinded for a while. Both Lu Yanji and Le Yan admired his conduct. Only Meng Qingrui, after praising him, suddenly asked: "Qi An came here to open a shop, are you not planning to go to the Imperial College?" The three of them looked at Qin Chi almost at the same time. There was envy and incomprehension in everyone''s eyes. The envy was that Qin Chi got a place as a tribute student, which is what many students dream of, but they couldn''t understand why Qin Chi didn''t go to school. Lu Yanji asked: "Qi''an, you don''t really want to give up going to the Imperial College, do you?" "I haven''t thought about it yet." Qin Chi''s words were true. Lu Yanji and the other three were speechless. Although there is no time limit for admission, if someone else gets such a precious spot and enrolls early, how could it be that he has been delayed for half a year like Qin Chi? You must know that usually candidates take the tribute examination, and only those with excellent scores can get the quota of tribute students and supervisors. Last year, Qin Chi got Xiao Sanyuan, and his grades were particularly good. The academic administration designated him as a Gong student, and his treatment was the same as that of a scholar. What others can''t even hope for, some people get it but don''t cherish it. This is really, really annoying. "Dalang, are some classmates here?" Boss Qin walked out of it wearing new clothes and looking radiant. At first glance, he looked like the steward of a bookstore. Qin Chi stood up and said with a smile: "Dad, are you done?" "We have finished counting the books in the warehouse. Some of them were damaged during transportation, but the rest are fine." Boss Qin helped count the goods today. Mr. Qin went to a private school for enlightenment when he was young. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Its no problem to help count the goods and keep accounts. What''s more, there is Xiao Chu as an assistant. Xiao Chu used to work as an errand at Shun''an Bookstore. Shopkeeper Tao couldn''t come here, so he asked Xiao Chu to come and help. According to Qin Chi''s intention, Xiao Chu was asked to come over to help for a while and familiarize Boss Qin with the procedures in the store. When Boss Qin gets started, Xiao Chu can go back. Qin Chi made such arrangements because he wanted to find something for Boss Qin to do. Not only that. Qin Chi also rented the shop next door and planned to open a small restaurant. Then, leave it to the second and third bedrooms to operate. It is impossible for a small business to make a lot of money, but it can be enough for living needs and there will be a little surplus. Wait until these are settled. Lets talk to Song Jin about other things. Qin Chi knew that Song Jin had recently received replies from branches of the Song family in various states. Don''t look at the lack of change on her face. But Qin Chi still noticed the irritability and hostility in her heart. Qin Chi felt that Song Jin had plummeted. It was really difficult to calm down at this time. Even if you have expected it, when you face it honestly, the feeling is still different. Out of more than fifty letters, only nine received replies. These nine stewards said they would make up for the previous two years, and then divide the accounts as usual. Five of them asked about medicinal materials, because Huizhou used to provide them with a certain amount of medicinal materials every year. Only four asked nothing. "Boss, how can we solve this problem?" Xing Lun also read the letter. Only then did he realize that there was such a huge force behind the Song family. If this force recovers. Jifang can expand rapidly in a short period of time. Song Jin raised his eyes and glanced at him, and said seriously: "I can''t run around to find them in various states. The managers probably saw this clearly and ignored them. If it doesn''t work, just give up on them." "My boss, I''m willing to take a trip for you." Xing Lun stood up and bowed to Song Jin, "Some state governments gave up too early. As long as someone goes over to negotiate with them, things may be different." "You really want to go?" Song Jin knew that he would travel to every state capital, "Your trip will take at least a year or two." "It''s an honor for me to be able to share my boss'' worries." Xing Lun''s attitude was very firm, "Ah Wei can manage the affairs in Huizhou, and I don''t need to control them here." Chapter 181 Kamigyo Chapter 181 Going to Beijing Xing Lun and Zhou Wei grew up together. Not real brothers, but better than real brothers. There is great trust in each other. What''s more, Xing Lun had already seen that Song Jin would not stop in Huizhou. Therefore, when doing things, he basically would not hide anything from Zhou Wei. At the same time, a group of manpower was trained. Divide the complicated work into subdivisions and select one person to take charge of each. After Xing Lun''s persuasion, Song Jin finally agreed. Take out the list and account books for Xing Lun to review. Lets listen to Xing Luns thoughts again. Song Jin thought deeply and said what he meant, "Those who are content, everything will continue as usual. If you are worried about being implicated by the Song family, try to persuade them, but don''t force them. Follow Song Huaichang''s example and take back the property that should be directly owned and terminate the cooperation. If you are restless, or want to do harm to you, you should seek protection from the local Shun''an Chamber of Commerce in a timely manner, ask them to come forward to solve the problem, and give them 30% of the profit. " Those who are stubborn and stubborn should be abandoned. The so-called abandonment means leaving the Song family. Those who can only share wealth and wealth but not adversity, don''t let them go! I believe her father will also approve of her move. "I will mention it to Shun''an''s family, but before departure you''d better go see Shopkeeper Tao and ask him for a token or something." Song Jin also didn''t want Xing Lun to be plotted. Asking for a token is also convenient for asking for help. Xing Lun immediately understood what she meant and was very moved. Then after thinking about it he asked: "Those who have been losing money all year round, will you go and check it out?" "No need, just go and take a look when you''re on your way. If you''re not on your way, don''t worry about it." If you have the ability, you can help others, but there''s nothing you can do if you''re in trouble. Song Jin doesn''t want to continue to be taken advantage of. Father is father and she is she. Finally, Song Jin warned again: "You need to bring more people, I''m worried that some people will jump over the wall in a hurry." "I will." Xing Lun smiled slightly when he heard this. The smile is still so delicate and clean. When he was leaving, Xing Lun bowed his head and saluted, "I''m not in Huizhou, so my boss should take care of himself." Song Jin responded. Out of the study. At the corner of the corridor. Xing Lun accidentally met Qin Chi. In the past two years, Qin Chi''s face has grown longer and his posture has become taller and taller. He no longer felt like a teenager before getting married, nor did he look like the frail scholar he once was. He had grown up without even realizing it. When walking towards you. Xing Lun felt his alienation and coldness. He was obviously just a scholar, but just a casual glance at him gave people an indescribable sense of oppression. And those eyes seemed to be separated by mist and mist, unfathomable. Xing Lun paused. When Qin Chi approached, Xing Lun saluted politely, "Xing Lun has met Qin Xiucai." "You''re welcome, what are you doing here?" Qin Chi stopped calmly. Xing Lun replied: "I came to see my boss for something." He didn''t mention anything about it. Qin Chi also knew that, despite the small size of Ji Fang and the medicine shop, the people inside were actually very strict. Erlang and Sanlang had to tell him anything before, but after they went to the medicine shop to work, they almost never mentioned medicine. things about the workshop. "Are the Liu family''s grandsons still staying in the medicine shop?" Qin Chi couldn''t help but ask one more question. Xing Lun thought for a while and nodded, "The boss asked them to stay in the pharmacy." "This courage..." Qin Chi almost laughed angrily to himself. I have to say that his wife is very brave. There are people behind the scenes of Liu Qiyou''s grandfather and grandson, and she dares to keep them in the medicine shop. Qin Chi didn''t know at this time. Song Jin had taken in Liu Qiyou in his previous life, but those people did not find Huizhou. Qin Chi didn''t know these things. Xing Lun lowered his jaw and stepped back to let Qin Chi go first before leaving. Qin Chi stepped into the study. I happened to see Song Jin sitting in front of the desk, concentrating on writing something. Until Qin Chi approached the desk. Song Jin then raised his head and looked at him, "My husband is back? Are you finished with the bookstore?" "When do you need me to be busy with things in the shop? All I need to do is go over and show my face. My wife must also learn from me, know people well and assign them well, and let go at the right time to give the people below a chance to perform." Qin Chi reached out and took the pen from Song Jin''s hand, then placed it on the inkstone. After moving, he had long thought of taking Song Jin out for fun, as Hongcun Town was famous for its beautiful scenery. But he is busy, and she is busier than him. Song Jin helplessly put away the things on the desk, "I have arranged for Xing Lun to go to each state capital. If he encounters trouble, I hope my husband''s Shun''an Trading Company can protect him." "Okay, I''ll have someone take care of him along the way." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi readily agreed. Seeing that he deserved it so quickly, Song Jin couldn''t help but look at him more. Qin Chi thought she didn''t believe it, so he had to half-jokingly say, "My wife is the God of Wealth. As long as I help you, you will be benefited. It''s better than my husband''s previous contact." All merchants must be generous. "It''s good that you know." Song Jin raised his chin slightly. As long as the partners don''t cheat her, they can usually work together for a long time. Just like Father Song used to do business. Next, the two chatted about some things. For example, when it comes to the placement of Liu Qiyou''s grandson, Qin Chi is worried that if he is left in the pharmacy and found out by the people behind the scenes, other people in the pharmacy may be affected. Song Jin asked: "What do you want?" "I want to pick him up." Qin Chi replied. Song Jin asked again: "Where to send?" "Send it to uncle." Qin Chi''s move was not a random decision. But Liu Qiyou was good at making aconite, which his uncle needed. No one dared to go to his uncle''s place and commit murder so blatantly. No matter how much Song Jin wanted to keep his grandfather and grandson, he could not ignore the safety of other people in the medicine shop. In the end, I had no choice but to accept it. He Lianpu is not in Huangshan now. Before winter came, he went to Nanhu Academy to recuperate. Nanhu Academy happens to be in Hongcun Town. This matter did not require Qin Chi to come forward. He just told the matter to go on. Someone went to the medicine shop that night, picked up the grandfather and grandson, and sent them to He Lianpu. When Helian Pu woke up the next day, he heard that his nephew had given him a pair of grandsons, and he was quite curious about who these grandsons were. When he learned that it was Liu Weng of Nancheng whom the imperial doctor had mentioned, the smile on his face never stopped for a day, and for the first time, he followed the scribes in the field and said that his nephew was filial. Of course Qin Chi didn''t know about this. In a blink of an eye, its early April. In Hongcun Town in April, peach blossoms are in full bloom and willows are green and poplar trees are hanging down. Qin Chi took Song Jin on a trip as he wished. After playing together for a while, both of them couldn''t bear to leave. The sun sets. On the way back, the two of them walked side by side on the path paved with bluestones, occasionally chatting in low voices. Song Jin suddenly turned his head to look at Qin Chi: "You really want to go to the capital, and you want to take me with you?" "good." Qin Chi nodded affirmatively. Not only to investigate clues about the Song family, but also because he had something to go to the capital. Song Jin quickly calmed down and asked again: "What reason should we use to the outside world?" "Just say I''m going to the Imperial College to study." The reasons are all ready-made and justifiable. Chapter 182 Arriving at the capital Chapter 182 Arriving at the Capital Since I want to study in Beijing. Qin Chi told his parents that night. Boss Qin had no objection, but Mrs. Li was not in a good mood after hearing this. "Da Lang, do you have to go?" Mrs. Li stared at her son, worry deep in her eyes. Qin Chi said warmly: "I can protect myself, mother. I believe my son can only truly have peace of mind if the hidden dangers are solved." "Then you have to hide your identity." This is what Li is most worried about, "Those people thought that I was dead so that we could live a stable life." "Mother, twenty years have passed since the incident. I''m afraid those people in the capital have forgotten it. Some people may remember it a little bit, so it''s not a big deal." Qin Chi didn''t want his mother to carry the past with her. Li''s eyes were filled with tears, "You are right, so many years have passed, maybe all my enemies are dead, who will still remember me?" The past is too heavy. Li didn''t want to remember. Boss Qin came over and gently hugged Mrs. Li''s shoulders, and said distressedly: "Daughter-in-law, we don''t need to pay attention to this brat. Our son is useless, and we still have grandsons and granddaughters. In the future, we will let our grandsons take care of him in his old age." "father!" Qin Chi''s mouth twitched. Song Jin lowered his head to hide his smile. Li was in a much better mood after being interrupted like this. She looked at Qin Chi, who was pretending to be helpless, and thought that her son was good, but he was not very obedient when he grew up. "Your father is right, he has no control over his mother." Mrs. Li waved her son to get out of here. "Take care of your wife on the way. Huzi and Niuniu Niang will take good care of her." Grandsons and granddaughters are much less worried than sons. I haven''t been very noisy since I was a child, and I have good health. Qin Chi knew that Li had agreed, and after saying a few words of concern, he took Song Jin away. Next two days. The young couple are busy on their own. That is to arrange things after they leave. For example, Song Jin''s medicinal material business is already on the right track, and there is a master in charge. Song Jin only needs to write a letter to tell some things. She spent the rest of the time with her children. Qin Chi went to a restaurant to hold a farewell banquet, inviting teachers and classmates from the college, and then went to see Helian Pu again. Early the next morning. As soon as it got dark, the two of them set off in an ordinary carriage. Lao Li Tou and Lao Huo took turns driving. Among the people accompanying him, there was also a maid and a boy. They said they went to a tooth shop to buy a new one, but in fact it was secret guards Qin Qi and Qin Ba who turned from being secretive to being exposed. A maid of Song Jin. A follower who acts as Qin Chi. In the afternoon, the carriage met a caravan from Shun''an, and this time they went to Beijing with the caravan. There were hundreds of people in the caravan, and sixty of them were bodyguards. On the surface, he was escorting the goods to Beijing, but in fact, he was protecting Qin Chi. Spent a day riding in a carriage. Song Jin leaned against the wall of the carriage, not in a very high mood. "Think about a child?" Qin Chi handed her a water bag. Song Jin took it and took a sip, "Don''t you want it?" "Ha, I''ve only been away for a day, so I don''t really think about it." Qin Chi was telling the truth. "Then you have such a big heart." Song Jin finished drinking the water and handed the water bag back to him. Qin Chi plugged the mouth of the water bag, smiled and said: "Life is full of irregularities, and even family members cannot live together forever. Madam, I just adapted earlier than you, but I am not arrogant." "Okay, I understand, and I will adapt as soon as possible." Song Jin also understands this. It''s just inevitable that there will be a bit of separation and separation. It will take at least a year or two to get there. I couldn''t bear to leave my children, but I had to look for my missing family members. The group started from Huizhou and only took the official road, passing through a series of inns and places, including Yizhen, Yangzhou, Shaobo, Gaoyou, Huai''an, etc., passing at least fifteen inns. After walking for twenty days, we arrived at Gaochang Station. This is the closest inn station to the capital. We will arrive in the capital tomorrow! Qin Chi said that he would take a day''s rest at the inn to let everyone recuperate. Song Jin had no objection. Qin Chi was nowhere to be seen that day. Song Jin vaguely guessed who Qin Chi was going to see, because along the way, he left more than once, and she basically helped him cover his whereabouts. It was getting dark, so Song Jin went to bed to rest. Qin Chi returned to his room in the middle of the night. Song Jin, who was woken up, turned around and went back to sleep. Set off the next day. Finally approaching the capital. The branches and villages on both sides of the road became increasingly sparse. Instead, there were an increasing number of pedestrians, vehicles and horses. You can see the tall city walls and majestic city gates from a distance. When the carriage enters the city gate. Song Jin was amazed in his heart. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Outside the city and inside the city seem to be two completely different worlds. The streets are spacious and crowded. The cries of vendors came and went. All kinds of fragrances hit your nostrils. In this life, Song Jin came to the bustling capital for the first time. Looking outside through the gap in the car window, my eyes couldn''t help but feel a little more novel. "When things settle down, I will take my wife to visit the entire capital." Qin Chi whispered in Song Jin''s ear. Song Jin smiled implicitly, "Then I''ll wait for my husband to be free and take me out to play." Qin Chi curled his lips and smiled, "I will definitely do it." Song Jin didn''t doubt Qin Chi''s intentions at the moment. He might really want to take her out on the street, but she didn''t take it to heart. Both of them came to the capital on important matters. Once they got busy, it was hard to say whether they would be able to have some free time. The carriages and caravans separated. Stopped in front of a house. Song Jin got out of the car after Qin Chi, looked up and saw that someone from the neighbor next door had opened the door and was looking at them. Lao Huo walked over, raised his hand, knocked on the door, and said loudly: "Uncle Hong! Uncle Hong! Master Huo is back. Come out to greet him!" "What''s it called? It''s called soul?" There was an old man yelling and cursing inside. After waiting for a while, the door creaked open. A lame old man came out, ignoring Lao Huo who was carelessly standing on the steps, and looked straight at Qin Chi. After a while. He welcomed Qin Chi and others into the house without saying a word. Entering the door is a small courtyard. A well was dug in the corner of the courtyard. Not far from the well, there is an adult peach tree. There are stone tables and benches placed under the tree, which is quite poetic. The main house has one living room and two rooms. One is Qin Chi''s bedroom, and the other is his study. There are two guest rooms in the east wing. The west wing is the kitchen, utility room, woodshed, etc. In the backyard are the servants'' rooms, warehouses and stables. The yard is very clean and has been cleaned for many years. Song Jinxian packed the boxes and cages in the dormitory. Qin Chi should have gone to see the lame old man. Song Jin acted very measuredly and would not inquire about Qin Chi''s whereabouts and secrets. But no matter what, the two of them have long been grasshoppers on the same rope. Fortunately, there are people in the capital this time, so they won''t be blinded when they first arrive. "Madam, I''ve got some hot water for you to wash your face." Qin Qi brought a basin of water and entered the house. Song Jin pointed to the bathroom. Qin Qi brought the water in, and Song Jin found a new handkerchief to wash her face with and went over. (End of chapter) Chapter 183 Get ill Chapter 183 Sickness After Song Jin washed his face, he sat in the bedroom and rested. Just sat there for a while. He took out another book and flipped through it. It contained detailed information about the medical woman from Tai Hospital and the Liu family. This is the goal of Song Jin''s trip. Liu Jianfang, seventeen years old, is not yet married. It is still a mystery where this person learned Song''s method of preparing medicinal materials. Those who approached her did not find out anything. All I know is that there was a period of time. Liu Jianfang''s skills in preparing medicinal materials have advanced by leaps and bounds, and others have no doubts. I just thought it was due to family education. According to the investigation, Liu Jianfang is not a threat, but the Liu family where she belongs should not be underestimated. In fact, the Liu family is not a medical family with a profound foundation, and their fortune lasted only three generations. Three generations ago, they were all mud-legged. The Liu family is the most feared. It was Liu Bingzheng who became the envoy of the Taiyuan Hospital. This man was originally a farm boy. When he was a child, he studied medicine with a barefoot doctor. Later, when the barefoot doctor died, he went to a medical clinic in the town to work as a medicine boy. Be a doctor in the hospital. Climb up step by step. Not only that, he also allowed his children and grandchildren to study medicine, and both boys and girls were trained together. There are more than a dozen female doctors among them, and all of them are doing well, and they belong to high-ranking families. Some wives and young ladies from wealthy families have problems with certain diseases. Due to their reputation, it is difficult for them to ask male doctors to treat them. Female doctors do not have such scruples. Therefore, Liu''s female doctor is very popular. The connections accumulated over decades are not that simple. Song Jin never looks down on anyone. For example, what I found out is that Liu Jianfang''s interpersonal relationships are very simple, and there are not many people he interacts with on a daily basis. How to get close to her? He closed his eyes and thought, and gradually fell asleep. The green curtain hangs lightly and the bead curtain moves slightly. Qin Chi stepped lightly into the bedroom. From the incense burner in the room, a faint fragrance curls up. The beauty lay gracefully on the mahogany carved bed. After the cleansing, her face was no longer disguised, and her face was like a painting with exquisite craftsmanship. The peonies blooming quietly on the bedside seem to be guarding this beauty''s peaceful sleep. Her beauty needs no words. Just one glance is enough to captivate the mind. Qin Chi stood quietly in front of the bed and watched, unbridled and indulged in it. His eyes were deep and obscure, hiding a possessiveness that even he didn''t know existed. a long time. He reached out and gently picked up the booklet. After taking a look at the content, he understood what she was thinking before going to bed. He just lifted up his clothes and sat on the edge of the bed. The beauty was awakened and opened her eyes suddenly. She went from dazed to awake in just a few clicks. "My husband, are you done?" Song Jin sat up and stood up. Qin Chi tapped her forehead with his fingertips, his smile implying doting, "I''ll tell you to eat." "Okay, I''ll go right away." Song Jin put on her shoes and stood up, then followed Qin Chi out. Hot meals have been placed in the main hall. There were only two sets of bowls and chopsticks on the table, obviously just for the couple to eat. Other people''s meals are not here. "The staff at home are still the same, but there is an extra cook and a washing woman. When you have time, you can ask them to come and recognize each other." Qin Chi''s voice was clear and gentle. Song Jin relaxed unconsciously after hearing this. The journey was tiring for more than half a month. As expected, Qin Chi woke up sick the next day. I invited a doctor to check my pulse, prescribed medicine for three days, and then left. Song Jin took good care of him. Qin Chi was lying on the bed, looking rather sickly, "Madam, don''t worry, my illness was due, so it came." Song Jin was speechless after hearing these words. Staring at him as he drank a bowl of dark concoction, she took the bowl from his hand and asked, "Excuse me, sir, when will your illness be cured?" When its time to get better, it will naturally get better. Even if this answer is said, it is equivalent to not saying it. Song Jin glanced at him with a smile, "I just want to say that my husband knows how to talk nonsense, and I have learned it as well. I didn''t know how to do it before." "Oh!" Qin Chi laughed. The laughter was clear and joyful. This illness gradually improved until the beginning of May. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! As Qin Chi said, a sick and weak person will be suspicious after a long journey. when they come over. The neighbors around them came to inquire about them overtly or covertly, not that they had any intentions, but that this was the current trend. Move in with new neighbors. Neighbors always want to ask around. Some people even want to dig out the eighteenth generation of each other''s ancestors. This is when Uncle Hong comes into play. It was said that the old owner sold the house to a scholar from Huizhou. The new owner was a scholar and brought his wife to Beijing, mainly to study. The scholar''s body bones are relatively weak. I fell ill on the second day after arriving here. After such a pass, the people around him accepted it. In this part of the capital, scholars are still very respected. Live with the etiquette you should have. Song Jin made some Huizhou local pastries and sent them to his neighbors one by one. Neighbors were friendly in return. Of course, Song Jin deliberately put on makeup when she appeared in front of people. Others wear makeup to look good. Song Jin wore makeup to suppress her beauty. She has reduced her appearance to only two or three points, and the clothes she wears when going out are mainly simple and loose. In the eyes of outsiders, at best, he may be considered handsome, but his personality seems to be good, and his behavior is elegant and generous. In the study. Qin Chi sat in front of the desk. Zheng secretly met with one of his subordinates, who was the head in charge of the capital''s intelligence. Externally, he was the manager of Shun''an Trading Company in the capital. "Sir, there is indeed someone behind the Liu family, but we haven''t found out yet." The man said ashamedly. After Qin Chi heard this, he was silent for a while, and then asked again: "Do you have any contact between the Liu family and the Yang family?" "I checked, no." "Not at all?" "The two families have never been married and have no daily contact with each other. The doctor the Yang family is familiar with is not from the Liu family." "So clean?" Qin Chi''s fingers tapped the table gently and rhythmically, as if he was deep in thought, "But why do I always feel that there is something wrong with it?" "Young Master suspects that the person behind Liu Bing''s evil deeds is Mr. Yang Ge?" "It''s just suspicion, there is no evidence. You can follow this line to investigate first." While he claimed to be ill, Qin Chi was actually not idle. He took the opportunity to consolidate the forces in the capital, including those given to him by He Lianpu. Although Qin Chi was not in the capital before. What happened in the capital was crystal clear. Besides, after meeting Helian Pu. He Lianpu intended to train him and told him about the relations between various forces in the capital. There is probably something fishy between the Liu family and the Yang family. Qin Chi is sure of this. All that is missing is just one piece of evidence. Chapter 184 Make an appointment with Song Huaiwang Chapter 184 Meeting with Song Huaiwang The others are about to turn around and leave. Qin Chi thought of Song Jin again, "Hasn''t the matter about the female doctor been investigated clearly?" The man lowered his head in shame. Qin Chi didn''t want to see him anymore, "Get lost, you useless thing." As soon as these words came out, the man immediately ran away. Song Jin came over and unexpectedly saw a middle-aged elegant man coming out of the side door of the study. When the man saw Song Jin, he bowed from a distance, then turned and left. Song Jin walked into the study holding a medicine bowl and said, "Ms. sir, was that person just now?" "Shun''an is in charge of Shuntian Mansion." Qin Chi stood up and took the medicine bowl from Song Jin''s hand, drank it all in one breath, and then handed the empty bowl back to her. Song Jin took the bowl and said, "I want to contact people from the Song family branch." "Do you need help for your husband?" Qin Chi asked. Song Jin refused, "No, I can do it myself." "Then tell me if you have anything." Qin Chi did not stop what Song Jin was going to do, "I will let Qin Ba and Qin Qi be at your disposal." Song Jin nodded lightly, turned around and left the study. When I went out, I happened to see Qin Ba. Song Jin took out a letter from his arms and asked him to help deliver the letter to Wanping County. Qin Ba immediately responded, took the letter and left. Wanping County is a county under the jurisdiction of Shuntian Prefecture, and it is the closest county to the Imperial City. It is said that there is only a wall between it and the Imperial City. There is still Piaoxiang Tower in the capital. Song Jin made an appointment to meet Song Huaiwang in this building. The next day at the agreed location, Song Jin put on men''s clothes with a corset, then made her face slightly yellow, made her eyebrows slightly thicker, and added some spots. It made her look like a handsome young man. Let Lao Litou send her to Piaoxiang Tower. Before getting off the car, Song Jin asked tentatively: "Uncle Li, is this Piaoxiang Building owned by Shun''an?" "It''s an industry under Shun''an''s name." Old Li Tou responded casually. Song Jin could only say that his business made her a little jealous. "Why are you still standing there? The third young master is getting off the car!" A sharp scolding voice from a man sounded from the side. When Song Jin got out of the car, she saw a man dressed in green clothes, pointing at the driver and scolding him. The driver was afraid of Nono and knelt down beside the car, using him as a stool. Then the boy ran to lift the curtain and said flatteringly to the people in the car: "Third Young Master, we have arrived at Piaoxiang Tower. Please get out of the car." The people in the car responded. Then a young man wearing a brocade robe emerged from the carriage, with a gold belt around his waist. Jewels and jade jade jingled against each other as he walked. His eyes were a bit sharp from time to time, but he looked around with a sideways glance. Stepping on the driver''s back, he got out of the carriage. He looked at Song Jin critically and sneered: "Piaoxiang Building is not good. Any guest can enter, and it is not too shabby. Ah Fu, keep people away, they are in my eyes." "Yes, he is getting in the Third Young Master''s eyes." The bullying young man in Tsing Yi came over immediately to tell Song Jin to get away. Lao Li Tou blocked the opponent in time. Song Jin stopped Old Li Tou and said, "Uncle Li, it''s okay for us to retreat." The boy in Tsing Yi felt that Song Jin was very sensible, so he ignored her and ran to the third young master to flatter him and welcome him into Piaoxiang Tower. The young man stepped into Piaoxiang Tower. He folded a peony flower that was decorated in front of Piaoxiang Tower, handed it to the young man in green clothes, and ordered: "Take it and put it on your head as your medal today." "Thank you, Third Young Master, for the reward." The young man in Tsing Yi bent down to take it, and clamped the flower to his ear cheerfully. The master and servant entered the restaurant and went directly to the private room on the second floor. Old Li looked at Song Jin again, "Why did you avoid it just now?" "Why can''t I avoid it?" Song Jin asked with a smile. Old Li Tou couldn''t understand. Arent young people supposed to be the most energetic at this time? Song Jin chuckled, "Wantless disputes should be avoided if you can. If you can''t avoid them, fight again." Playboys like this, no matter where they go, can always make people fear and hate them with their arrogant and rude temperament, but they have to bow their heads. What''s more, she, Song Jin, is not a real young person. Enter Piaoxiang Tower. Song Jin went to see the shopkeeper and explained his purpose. The shopkeeper said humbly: "Young master''s distinguished guest has arrived half a quarter of an hour early and is already waiting for you in the private room." "Okay, find someone to lead the way." Song Jin raised his head and looked towards the second floor. The shopkeeper immediately said: "I will take you up." After saying that, the person walked to the front to lead the way. Stepping up the wooden stairs to the second floor, Song Jin pretended to ask casually: "Which family does the master and servant who just entered come from?" "Oh, that''s Yang Yingrong, the third young master of the Yang family. His father is the eldest son of the Yang family and serves as a doctor in the Ministry of Rites. His grandfather is the famous Mr. Yang Ge." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The shopkeeper explained Yang Yingrong''s origins in a few words. When he reached the second floor, he reminded in a low voice, "He is just a dandy. He is famous in the capital as someone who is not easy to mess with. Don''t look at his aristocratic appearance, but everyone knows that he is a bit stingy." Song Jin smiled knowingly, "I just saw it." If you don''t be stingy and reward your servants, how can you just pick a flower? Or picked it from someone else''s flower pot. Following the shopkeeper, he came to a side room. First he knocked lightly on the door. The person inside said please come in. The shopkeeper opened the door but did not follow him in, but said that someone would bring tea. Song Jin saw a middle-aged man sitting quietly in front of the tea table. He was wearing cloth clothes. Although not gorgeous, he was washed clean and tidy, and he looked very ordinary. He gives the impression that he is honest and honest, just like an ordinary businessman walking through the streets and lanes, with an unpretentious appearance but a sense of simplicity. Under the thick black sword eyebrows, his eyes were pure. There don''t seem to be many cities. Song Jin never looks at people just based on their appearance. The muscles of this man''s arms exuded a sense of strength. A pair of big hands have thin scars and thick calluses. It''s obviously Lian Jiazi''s. However, he can do business in Shuntian Mansion and earn tens of thousands of dollars a year. He obviously occupies a place. At least he will not be unknown in Wanping County. Song Jin was sizing up the other party. The other party was also sizing up Song Jin. When he saw the Song clan emblem under Song Jin''s clothes, the other party stood up and saluted Song Jin, "Song Huaiwang, the great-great-grandson of Song Xiaoping in Wanping County, has met the young clan leader." Song Jin positioned himself as the young patriarch. The serious patriarch is her father Song Kuan. "Uncle Huaiwang, there is no need to be polite." Song Jin returned the gesture. Enough etiquette. Song Huaiwang raised his head and looked directly at Song Jin, "According to the letter, the young patriarch is the eldest daughter." "It''s me, Song Jin." Song Jin frankly admitted that she was a woman and said that it was more convenient to walk outside dressed as a man. The two exchanged pleasantries first. At that time, Song Xiaoping branched off from the direct branch of Huizhou Prefecture and came to Shuntian Prefecture with his wife and children to make a living. However, each generation was not as good as the previous one, and they were not doing well. He could not survive any natural disasters. It was Song Huaiwang''s father who tried to contact Huizhou. The Song family asked for help. It was Song Kuan who agreed. With the support of direct relatives, the branch in Wanping County gradually got out of the predicament. Now he is considered a respectable person in Wanping. (End of chapter) Chapter 185 This young master allows you to treat us Chapter 185 This young master allows you to treat The Song clan members in Wanping County were grateful. When they learned that the bank account had not been sealed, they deposited their profits as usual. Song Huaiwang said sincerely: "We only know that we must not forget our roots as a human being." "How much do you know about the things in Huizhou?" Song Jin asked straight to the point. Song Huaiwang said: "We know very little about Shuntian Mansion. However, there is a clan brother who works in the government office of Shuntian Mansion. He said that there are no prisoners named Song from Huizhou. At first, our family thought it was a misinformation, but later we found out that it was not the case. We arranged When people went to check, the man came back seriously injured. When he finished speaking, he looked ashamed. It''s because they are too humble. Song Jin knew that someone was obstructing them, but she didn''t have any bad feelings about it. Not only them, but also so many forces in Huizhou Prefecture have shut up. Song Jin stood up and bowed gratefully to Song Huaiwang, "It''s us who have caused trouble to you, I''m sorry." "It can''t be done! This can''t be done!" Song Huaiwang quickly avoided it and waved his hands repeatedly, "Young Patriarch, if you still need us, just ask." "Thank you very much, Uncle Huaiwang." Song Jin thanked him again, then invited him to sit down and poured him a cup of tea himself. After chatting for a few more words, Song Jin pretended to be unintentional and talked about Tai Hospital and the collection of medicinal materials in the herbal medicine warehouse. "Uncle Huaiwang is also in the medicine business, right? Has he cooperated with the government?" "Sometimes, I will send medicinal materials to the herbal medicine warehouse on behalf of Wanping County." Song Huaiwang said truthfully. Song Jin asked again: "Then do you know Liu Jianfang?" "You mean Ambassador Liu?" Song Huaiwang knew this person and said regretfully: "I know her, but I only know this person and have no dealings with her." Delivering medicine is really just delivering. People won''t pay attention to them. Suddenly, Song Huaiwang said: "Oh, I thought of one thing. Ambassador Liu recently said that he was looking for trillium. This medicinal material is scarce, and someone asked me to come here." "Trillium?" Song Jin thought thoughtfully. Song Huaiwang thought she didn''t know what trillium was, so he explained: "Trillium has specific requirements for its growing environment. It must grow on high mountains, under forests, forest edges or in humid places. It is difficult to survive here in Shuntianfu. Trillium growing in high mountains and bare rocks will have special medicinal effects. Well, people ask for this kind of thing, and this one is even harder to find. "This is about high-quality medicinal materials." Song Jin didn''t say any more. Huangshan Mountain in Huizhou is suitable for the growth of trillium. Song Jin brought his own medicinal materials for home use this time, and Trillium happened to be among them. However, she didn''t mention it much. Sit for a while longer. Song Jin stood up and left. When he went out, Lao Li was waiting outside the door, and there was also Qin Ba. Song Huaiwang sent her out. Seeing that there were two people guarding her, he knew that the Song family in Huizhou had not truly fallen yet, and he was glad that his family''s decision had not added insult to injury. Just reached the stairs. They bumped into Yang Yingrong again. Yang Yingrong''s image at the moment was not very good, his clothes were torn open a little, his hair was a little messy, and the young man in green clothes following him had bruises at the corners of his eyes. This is like having a fight with someone. Yang Yingrong looked at Song Jin with critical eyes, "You, a shabby little man, are you rich enough to eat in a private room again?" "I can''t compare to Yang Sanshao. I can come here every day. I only come here occasionally to see the world." Song Jin answered generously, with a gentle smile on his face. He didn''t take Yang Yingrong''s ridicule to heart at all. Dont reach out to hit the smiling person. What''s more, Song Jin took the initiative to turn aside and let Yang Yingrong go downstairs first. Yang Yingrong raised his lips disdainfully, "You are quite sensible. You are much better than some people. Obviously everyone is relying on the protection of the family. You must be divided into three, six or nine, and you look down on this young master. Humph! You are laughing so hard. Swinging his sleeves, Yang Yingrong strode downstairs. When he went downstairs, he raised his hand and waved without looking back, "Shameless little man, when we meet next time, I will allow you to treat me." Song Jin was speechless. You are so shameless, but you still allow her to treat you? No food, wine or food will be given to the Yang family! Of course, Song Jin also knew that there was something in the other person''s words, and the target of ridicule was obviously not her. Sure enough, from the side room where Yang Yingrong''s master and servant came out, several rich young masters came out. One of them had a bruised nose and a swollen face. He must have just had a fight with Yang Yingrong. When Song Jin went downstairs, he heard someone say. "Ouch, is Young Master Yang bullying someone again?" One diner pretended to speak in a low voice, but the volume was not low, "Old Yang Ge was born in Qingming, and Mr. Yang was also a good official. Why did he become a nobody?" Someone next to me said, "Hey, why didn''t you dare to say anything when the Third Young Master didn''t leave the restaurant just now?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "What if I tell the truth?" The man said, scratching his neck. Someone else laughed and said, "I''m talking about you, weren''t you beaten by Young Master Yang San a few years ago? You still hold a grudge to this day." "What are you talking about? Are you a stingy person?" Just look at the lobby and there''s going to be a noise. Song Jin didn''t pay attention and left the Piaoxiang Tower. After waiting for a while, Lao Litou''s carriage came over, and Song Jin got on it neatly. "You can go back." Song Jin spoke up, and Lao Li Tou drove forward. Qin Ba sat on the shaft of the car. Passing by a time-honored pastry shop, Song Jin asked Qin Ba to buy two or three items and come back. When I returned home, I brought it to Qin Chi again. When Qin Chi saw his wife going out, he didn''t forget to bring something for himself. The pastries were sweet in his mouth and felt sweet in his heart. After eating two pieces, Qin Chi asked: "How was going out today? Did it go well?" "good." Song Jin had already returned to her room and changed back into women''s clothes. She sat aside and picked up a piece of pastry to eat, "I heard that the female doctor named Liu is looking for trillium, even from high mountains." "Do you want to use this to get closer to her?" Qin Chi was indeed a man with more eyes than a sieve, and he could guess her next move with just one or two sentences. Song Jin stuffed the cake in his hand into his mouth. Chewed slowly for a while. Another person might be impatient. If she asked her again, it would be impossible for this person to be Qin Chi. Compared with patience, Qin Chi has no shortage of it. Song Jin took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands. After wiping, he put the handkerchief on the tea table and took a sip of tea. "I really don''t think I can hide anything from my husband. So, my husband, tell me, is this feasible?" "I only guessed a little bit, I don''t know yet how the lady wants to operate." Qin Chi raised his eyebrows slightly, hiding a smile in his eyes. My wifes thoughts. But not as shallow as she showed. On the contrary, it is very deep. Song Jin smiled and did not continue, "I haven''t thought about this yet. I will talk to you when I think about it." If you take this seriously, you will lose. Qin Chi knew this very well. Chapter 186 hitch a target Chapter 186 Catching up with the target Just as Qin Chi thought. Song Jin had thought of many ways to get close to the other party, as long as there were no flaws and no one would be suspicious. First of all, a pharmacy must be arranged. The medicinal materials brought from Huizhou are put on the shelves one by one and carefully preserved. Song Jin used Song Huaiwang''s relationship to establish a connection with a medicine assistant and help him prepare some medicinal materials. There will be differences in medicinal materials in different regions, but it does not mean that Song Jin will not. With experience in his previous life, Song Jin''s craftsmanship is still at the level of a master, and the medicinal materials he prepares are all good. Tai hospital, herbal medicine warehouse. The people below sent a batch of medicinal materials. An official from the Ministry of Rites and Liu Jianfang are inspecting the medicinal materials. If there are no problems, they will be put into storage. Although it is said on the surface that good medicinal materials will be paid as tribute, only the insiders know the inside story, and some of the good medicinal materials are usually withheld. "No trilliums were brought up?" Liu Jianfang looked very unhappy, "They said they were waiting for urgent use. They have been urging me for several days." The official from the Ministry of Rites said: "That''s all we brought here. We can''t conjure it up for him." He is just responsible for supervising. It is not his turn to hold him accountable in the palace. So he glanced at Liu Jianfang and said, "Isn''t your family a medical family? There should be a medicine storehouse at home, and some should be mobilized for emergencies." "If my family had it, why should I be so anxious?" Liu Jianfang was scolded several times. Originally, as a woman, it was quite eye-catching for her to be the ambassador of Shengku Medicine, but some people deliberately stumbled upon her. Whatever medicinal materials are lacking in the warehouse are specially prescribed. She didn''t believe that there was no medicinal material like trillium, and she couldn''t substitute it with anything else. A guard who was counting nearby suddenly said: "Sir, sir, I know someone who has trilliums." "What did you say just now?" Liu Jianfang looked at the man in surprise. The officer came forward humbly and said: "My younger cousin works as an apprentice at the West Street Medical Clinic. Yesterday, I heard from him that the doctor at the medical clinic met an emergency patient and prescribed trillium, but it was not available in the medical clinic. It happened that a new pharmacist said that there was something at home..." same day. The target Liu Jianfang came to the door. Song Jin relied on Trillium to successfully catch up with Liu Jianfang. When she saw the quantity and quality of the medicinal materials stored by Song Jin, Liu Jianfang was surprised for a long time, "The medicinal materials you have here are very complete and of high quality." "Master Liu, my mother-in-law and husband-in-law are both weak and have to take medicine all year round, so I learned how to prepare medicinal materials, which can also save some money for the family." Song Jin brought some medicinal materials from Huizhou, but they were not as good as now. complete. The ability to gather so many medicinal materials and set up a private pharmacy in such a short period of time is attributed to Shun An Trading Company. The number of medicinal materials here is huge. But not much. Just enough for a small household. The pharmacy in Liu''s house is bigger than the one in Song Jin. The pharmacy decorated by Song Jin. In order to attract Liu Jianfang, all the medicinal materials displayed were of high quality. When Liu Jianfang came in, he kept looking at it and exclaimed: "You made these all? This craftsmanship has caught up with the masters who have been working for decades." I thought that for my age, I could concoct top-grade medicinal materials, which would be considered excellent. She didn''t expect there was anyone as good as her. It is true that there is a world outside the sky, and there are people outside the world. At this time, footsteps were heard outside the pharmacy, and a servant hurriedly came in, came to Liu Jianfang and bowed humbly. "Mr. Liu, Chief Liu has come to see you and asked you to return to Tai Hospital immediately." The officer just came to deliver a message. Liu Jianfang thought that it might be Imperial Physician Mu who was urging her to ask for trillium again, and said coldly: "I know, go back now." Turning to look at Song Jin. Song Jin wrapped half of the trillium stock and handed it to Liu Jian, "Sir, the medicinal materials you asked for." "Thanks to Madam Qin this time, otherwise I wouldn''t be able to deliver the job." Liu Jianfang took the medicinal materials with a grateful look on her face, and hurriedly left with her entourage. When she left, she left one ingot or ten taels of silver on the table. Song Jin held the silver in his hand, and the light in his eyes disappeared. Qin Ba came over to report, "Madam, he has left." After saying that, he found that Song Jin threw something towards him. Qin Ba raised his hand to catch it, and it turned out to be a silver ingot. Song Jin said: "This is to reward you for your hard work." "Thank you madam for the reward." Qin Bal was beaming with joy. As expected, Madam is the God of Wealth. As expected, he squeezed someone away and took the initiative to run errands for Madam. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! What happened at the medical clinic was not such a coincidence? It was all arranged intentionally by Song Jin. When interacting with people, he would only say that his husband''s surname was Qin. So everyone called her Mrs. Qin. Liu Jianfang got on the carriage back to Tai Hospital and asked the attendant, "How are you? Have you heard anything?" "That family just came to the capital from Yi County, Huizhou Prefecture last month. Madam Qin''s husband is a scholar, and she came to the capital with her husband to study. However, Qin Xiucai was born weak and had to travel a lot, so she just arrived in the capital. I fell ill the next day, just a few days later..." The entourage told Liu Jianfang all the news he had learned. Then the attendant added: "I also found out from the medical clinic that Madam Qin has worked in a pharmacy for many years, and she also learned the art of preparing medicinal materials from a master master." "Then which academy did her husband go to?" What Liu Jianfang thought was that if the other party could enter school safely, then there should be no problem with the family''s identity. The attendant said: "In such a short period of time, I haven''t found out yet." The next day, they found out. Qin Chi went to the Imperial College to take the entrance exam. Even if a student has obtained the qualification of Gongsheng, he still has to take an exam before entering the Imperial College. Only those who pass the exam will be admitted successfully. If you fail, you will have to return to your place of origin to go to school. Song Jin knew he was going to take the exam, so he had people prepare for it early, and even personally sent Qin Chi to the Imperial Academy. Qin Chi said with a smile on his face, "How come you are more nervous than me?" "I''m nervous for my husband, so my husband can be less nervous and can take the exam with peace of mind." Song Jin''s eyebrows were crooked, making the disguised face suddenly look more colorful. Qin Chi''s heart skipped a beat. The big hand with clear joints gently covered Song Jin''s soul-stirring eyes. It took a while. He then said quietly: "Don''t smile at random people outside. The way you look when you smile is a bit silly." Song Jin: "..." You are stupid for believing this! At this time the carriage stopped, and Old Li Tou''s voice sounded: "Sir, the Imperial Academy has arrived!" Hearing this voice, Qin Chi came back to his senses and immediately retracted his hand in embarrassment. But the awkward mood only lasted for a moment. Qin Chi returned to normal. He stood up and bent down to get out of the car. The moment his slender fingers touched the curtain, he suddenly turned around and leaned closer to Song Jin unexpectedly. On those delicate lips, a kiss fell like a dragonfly. Then he went on without looking back. Song Jin was left with a dull face. (End of chapter) Chapter 187 Entrance exam Chapter 187 Entrance Examination "Uncle Li, I want to send my wife home safely." Qin Chi warned carefully. When Song Jin came to her senses and lifted the car curtain, she saw Qin Chi''s broad shoulders, tall and straight posture, and slow but firm steps. No matter how much he conceals himself, he will occasionally reveal his upbringing and demeanor from the bottom of his heart, giving people a feeling of calmness and confidence, as if everything is under his control. Until he entered the Imperial College. Qin Chi looked back at the carriage. Seeing Song Jin lift the car curtain and look at him, Qin Chi raised his hand and waved, signaling Song Jin to go back. Qin Chi could not be seen. The carriage then turned around. Old Li Tou said: "Madam, are you going back, or are you going somewhere?" "Go to the hospital." Song Jin also cooperates with the medical clinic. The carriage moved forward slowly. Staying alone in the narrow carriage, Song Jin could still smell the lingering cold fragrance of Qin Chi, and couldn''t help but raise her hand to gently touch her lips. Thinking back to that kiss just now... My heart couldn''t help but beat very fast, and there was a strange feeling spreading in my heart. "Uncle Li, do you think my husband can pass the exam?" Song Jin held his hot cheeks with both hands and quickly found someone to talk to. This strange and unfamiliar feeling. It has never happened before. This made Song Jin at a loss for a moment. Old Li Tou said with a firm voice: "Madam, please don''t forget that the young master is a young master. Don''t say that he is rich in knowledge, he is also talented. A mere entrance examination will not be able to stop the young master." Song Jin remained silent. Old Li Tou said again: "What we want to think about is which class the young master will be assigned to? We just don''t know how many years the young master wants to study." "Does it still depend on how many years he wants to study?" Song Jin didn''t understand. "That''s of course. Entrance exam, classification according to grades, promotion and assessment..." The Imperial College is an important official institution with a very strict academic system and grades. In terms of academic system, the academic system of Imperial College is divided into three years, nine years and eighteen years. Students need to complete various studies according to the prescribed academic system before they can graduate. Talented students can also apply for early graduation, provided they pass strict assessments. Therefore, Old Li Tou said it depends on what Qin Chi wants. Song Jin didn''t know, but Old Li Tou knew that among the gentlemen who taught Qin Chi since childhood, there were many powerful figures, arranged by Prince Rui and Prince Pu respectively. Things to learn in the Imperial College. Qin Chi started studying since he was a child. Song Jin went to Liu''s Medical Clinic on West Street. The carriage stopped at the side door of the medical clinic. He went up and knocked on the door, identified himself and entered the processing room at the back. "Ms. Qin is here!" A fat steward came up to him, opened and closed his mouth and said, "Master Liu alone can''t handle the medicinal materials collected in the past two days. You are here, and you can just reduce his pressure." "The car manager was joking." Song Jin smiled sheepishly and replied, "With Master Liu''s ability, these medicinal materials are certainly not a problem. You must know that he was the one who took the lead in the past years. The most I come here is to help him." "Mrs. Qin, please stop being modest. Ambassador Liu from the Herbal Medicine Store said your skills are as good as those of a master who has been working for decades." The car manager can say nice things for free. Song Jin went into the warehouse and took a look. Boy, she finally gets it. No wonder he put a high hat on her as soon as he came here. It turned out that the amount of medicinal materials collected was twice as much as Song Jin had promised before! This is preparing to exploit her like a cow! Manager Che didn''t feel the slightest bit embarrassed, "I''ve been lucky lately, and I''ve collected a little more medicinal materials, so I''ll ask Madam Qin to share the cooking work." "I''m sorry, Manager Che, I just want to take the amount I agreed on earlier." Song Jin said with a troubled expression. Manager Che''s expression changed. Before the car manager could speak, Song Jin rushed to explain, "You also know that I am new here. The newly installed dispensary does not have all the tools. I can only prepare a small amount of medicinal materials. If there is more, I will not be able to do it." "So that''s it." The manager of the car immediately changed his attitude and immediately decided: "Ms. Qin, let''s prepare it here. The tools are complete here and the place is large. There is no need to move the medicinal materials around." Song Jin sneered in his heart, but it didn''t show on his face. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! What do you mean by staying here to concoct? Do you really think she can''t see the fishiness in it? However, Song Jin did not reveal the other party''s intention and pretended not to notice and asked: "Manager Che, do you mean that Master Liu''s processing room can be used by me alone? If I use it, where will Master Liu get it? And how will the wages be calculated? This is a lot of money." "Isn''t there a ready-made one?" The car manager pointed to the simple public workshop. There are tools and stoves there, which are usually used by apprentices, and there are two apprentices working there. Then, there was no mention of wages. Song Jin suddenly turned cold and said, "I don''t know if the owner of the medical clinic broke the rules or if the car manager made his own decision. Whose craftsmanship does not avoid people? Are you bullying me because I am young, or do you think I will not do it? Understand the rules. "Don''t listen to that grandson. Madam Qin can do whatever she wants." At this time, an old man walked out of the house. The old man had gray hair on his temples, droopy eyes, and looked a little tired. There was a deep crack on the bridge of his nose, and coughs escaped from his thick lips from time to time. He was wearing a plain gray cloth gown, with the collar and cuffs slightly frayed from long-term use. The scent of herbs is scattered on the gown, mixed with the smell of sweat. There is a wide cloth belt tied around his waist to facilitate his movement when preparing the medicine. Those hands were very rough, full of mottled marks left by years of contact with medicinal materials. This person is an old pharmacist named Liu. The status of a craftsman has never been high. Even if he has exquisite craftsmanship, his life will be slightly better. Someone from Song Jinjing introduced her to the medical clinic to find work. When others found out her details, they learned that she was a foreigner and her husband was just a scholar, and they had no scruples in exploiting her. If you compromise once, you will be squeezed by your boss countless times. If Song Jin really did things for a living, he would indeed be caught. The problem is not that Song Jin, but the person who rounded off the medical clinic was also after Liu Jianfang. This medical clinic is the property of the Liu family. Master Liu is a brother of Liu Bingzheng. Before Liu Jianfang entered the Taiyuan Hospital, he would often come here to ask Master Liu for his skills in preparing medicinal materials. No matter why Master Liu defended Song Jin, it was beyond Song Jin''s expectations. Manager Che''s face twitched, "Mr. Liu doesn''t like this. You can''t handle the newly collected medicinal materials in the library by yourself. I just want to find someone to share the burden for you." "What are you planning, do you think I don''t know?" Master Liu loves talents. Manager Che was annoyed, but with a playful smile on his face, "Old man, there''s nothing I can do about it." After speaking, he winked at Master Liu. Song Jin was speechless in her heart. Do you think she is blind? Chapter 188 Enter Liu Mansion Chapter 188 Entering the Liu Mansion "Thank you, Mr. Liu, for your protection today." Song Jin stepped forward to thank Master Liu, and then turned to the car manager and said, "I don''t want to do it anymore. Whether you want to settle our previous accounts depends on your conscience." Steward Che''s face became particularly ugly, and he half-advised and half-threatened: "Mrs. Qin, please don''t be arrogant. It''s not easy to find a job in such a big capital." "Don''t say that if I offend you, I won''t be able to live. I''m just a steward. I really think I''m the King of Heaven." Song Jin raised his eyes lightly, full of disdain. Then she said goodbye to Master Liu, turned around and strode away. The manager was so angry that he pointed his finger at Song Jin''s back and trembled. He wanted to scold but was unable to speak, his face was ashen. Its really a waste of money! When Song Jin went out, Manager Che finally found his voice and cursed: "Humph, I offended you. Let''s see how you can survive." Wait until he lets out his voice and goes out to see who dares to invite her. There is more than one Liu''s Medical Clinic in the capital, and the owner behind it is the Liu family, which is quite famous. Manager Che shouted out, fearing the Liu family, ordinary drug stores really didn''t dare to ask Song Jin to do work again. After Qin Chi completes the entrance exam. As soon as he left the Imperial Academy, Lao Li Tou, who came to pick him up, reported Song Jin''s great achievements. "Sir, do you want to ask someone to teach the car manager a lesson?" Old Li Tou asked one more question. Qin Chi muttered: "No need, just let nature take its course." He was a little suspicious that this move was done intentionally by Song Jin. Wait until you get home. When Qin Chi saw Song Jin, he didn''t see any anger on her face, so he understood that his guess might be correct. Then he saw the rich dishes on the table tonight. So, he lifted up his clothes and sat down and asked, "What do you want to celebrate, madam?" "Celebrating the Prime Minister''s admission to the Imperial College." Song Jin placed the bowl and chopsticks in front of him. Qin Chi smiled and said: "You haven''t asked me yet, how do you know that I will definitely be able to pass?" "Uncle Li said it." Song Jin immediately pulled out Lao Li''s head and said, "He is sure you can pass." Qin Chi smiled and nodded, "Yes, I did pass the exam." In order to live a more stable life. He deliberately wrote the article in a plain and simple way, which was in line with his vision as a poor student. After learning for a while, you will gradually emerge. Then there would be no suspicion. Wait until dinner is over. Qin Chi went to make a pot of tea himself and sat across from each other on the coffee table. "I heard that Madam had a conflict with someone from the medical clinic today?" "It''s not a conflict, it''s just a few words." Song Jin remembered what happened in the medical clinic, "This is very common. Some people spend a little money to hire people to do work, and then they want the workers to make money for them from morning to night." Qin Chi knew what Song Jin said. But since she had expected it and still acted like this, she had a plan. Song Jin met his knowing gaze, "Have you guessed that I did this on purpose?" Qin Chi smiled and said nothing. Song Jin had no choice but to say: "I went to the medical clinic to look for work because I wanted to hook up with Liu Jianfang. We just hooked up initially, and there''s no reason to see her again unless there''s some trouble, right?" The most she can do is take one step and count it ten steps. Calculate what is likely to happen today. Just as Song Jin expected. The next day, her story was spread to Liu Jianfang''s ears. Then the car manager suffered a disaster. He was reprimanded and fined three months'' wages. He even came over to apologize to Song Jin in person and included the arrears in wages. Then Liu Jianfang started to meet Song Jin. Qin Chi was a little worried: "Madam, must I go in person?" "I can only go in person." Song Jin studied the reasons why others failed to approach Liu Jianfang before. The main reason was that Liu Jianfang was very defensive. With Song Jin''s current status, he was not a threat to Liu Jianfang, and he helped her from the beginning, winning her favor from the beginning. In addition, Song Jin is good at preparing medicinal materials, and he and Liu Jianfang have a common topic. Qin Chi could understand Song Jin''s move, but he couldn''t help but worry, "I''m going to the Imperial College tomorrow. It''s a rule that students have to move into dormitories." The management of the Imperial College is very strict. Normally, there are holidays on the first and fifteenth day of each month, and the rest of the time will be strictly controlled. Song Jin smiled and said, "Do you want me to pack your things?" "Student uniforms and other items are distributed uniformly, so there is no need to prepare anything. Just let Uncle Li prepare the rest of the daily stuff." Qin Chi didn''t want her to worry about his own affairs and his life. Human energy is limited. Since he said that, Song Jin didn''t care, he really just thought that. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Wait until the appointed time is almost up. Song Jin set off in a carriage. The place we went to this time was the Liu family. A maid led Song Jin directly to Liu Jianfang''s personal medicine room. When entering. I happened to see Liu Jianfang patiently picking medicinal herbs one by one, "You''re here." "I''ve met Mr. Liu." Song Jin saluted. Liu Jianfang stood up and pulled her over, "Don''t be so polite. Come and sit. I''m picking through the red flowers and angelica I just collected." Song Jin sat down slightly cautiously. Liu Jianfang pretended not to notice, "Thanks to your trillium last time, it solved a big problem for me." "It''s nothing, it''s nothing. Your Excellency also kept the money. I also want to thank you for helping me get back the wages owed by the car manager. It''s enough for my family''s expenses for half a month." Song Jin showed his gratitude in time. Liu Jianfang was very satisfied. Now she has a good impression of Song Jin. A simple and unpretentious person, her husband was a scholar and even went to the Imperial College to study. With his reputation as a scholar, he could enter the Imperial College, and his talent in reading must be outstanding. In the future, he might even become an official in the court, which was the best stage to win over. The maid brought tea and cakes. When two people chat, it is inevitable that they will talk about medicinal materials. It was Liu Jianfang who started it, and then Song Jin pretended to change from being unfamiliar to being relaxed, and talked about the precious medicinal materials. Occasionally, the matter of concocting is mentioned. Every time I come back, I feel like we are in love. "Ms. Qin knows so much." Liu Jianfang benefited a lot from hearing this, "I wonder who you studied under?" "My master is an old pharmacist, not a famous person. Also, I will buy some books and go home to think about it. In fact, I don''t know much. It''s because adults are looking up to me." Song Jin said modestly. Liu Jianfang wanted to chat again, but then realized that it was late, "Have dinner at my house and then go back." "No, no, my husband is going to the Imperial Academy. It won''t be that easy to see him in the future. I have to go back and pack his things." Song Jin promptly asked to leave. Liu Jianfang was a little reluctant to give up, "In the future, do you want to come to my place to help? I will calculate your wages and settle the accounts for a day''s work. How about that?" "Really? Thank you sir." Song Jin agreed happily. Make an appointment to come over tomorrow to help. Song Jin followed the maid and left the Liu Mansion through the back door with a happy face. Her smile gradually faded away until she was no longer seen. Chapter 189 Go to the Imperial College Chapter 189 Going to the Imperial College Wait until you get home. Then he saw the box and cage that Old Li Tou packed for Qin Chi. A large box full of stuff. There are half of the books inside, including two simple sets of changing clothes and the four treasures of the study, daily necessities, pillows, bedding, etc. School uniforms, hats, and shoes must be uniform. Qin Chi can get it when he goes to the Imperial College. Song Jin looked around and felt that something was missing, "Ms. sir, do you only bring these? I don''t want to think about whether I missed anything?" "That''s it. It''s too much to pack up." Qin Chi didn''t want to move a bunch of things to the dormitory and then have to clean it up by himself. Old Li Tou agreed, "Young Master is right. If there are less things, we can pack less." The two of them had the same chemistry. Song Jin was left alone and speechless. However, Song Jin also found that something was missing, so she went to the kitchen and made him some local Huizhou pastries, then carefully wrapped them in oil paper. Place in a food basket. Wait until early the next morning. Song Jin got up early, dressed neatly and disguised himself, and together with old Uncle Li, sent Qin Chi to the Imperial Academy. Outsiders cannot enter the Imperial College. Qin Chi carried the suitcase and basket on his back, carried the cakes specially prepared for him by his wife, and walked into the Imperial Academy with a warm smile. Song Jin stood beside the carriage and watched him enter. Then she turned around and got on the carriage and asked Old Li Tou to take her to the back door of Liu''s house. The three of them didnt know. It''s also because of the gate tower of the Imperial College. Not only was there a carriage parked, but there were also many carriages that were bringing people over. There was a carriage among them, parked on the side of the road. There were two people sitting in the car. The man was wearing a black robe and a burly body wrapped in casual clothes. He was surrounded by evil spirits, his mouth was tightly closed, and he showed an air of calmness and authority just by sitting there. Beside him sat a scribe. The two came here specially to take a look at Qin Chi. The scribe lowered the window and asked in a low voice: "General, is that young man the grandson of the marshal?" "Well, it looks like he''s doing well, but he''s a bit thin and weak. I''ll talk to the marshal when he gets back to the northwest." Then the big man signaled that he could leave. This carriage is very ordinary. Apparently he was hiding his whereabouts and just came to take a look. No one around him noticed, not even the people who came to protect Qin Chi. Song Jin calmed down his emotions. Go to the back door of Liu''s house and knock on the door. After giving my identity, the concierge went to report it. After a while, a maid came and said in a businesslike tone: "Ms. Qin, I''ve been waiting for you for a long time. My name is Xiao Xi. The lady asked me to pick you up." "Thank you for your hard work, little girl." Song Jinjiang held a bag of pastries in his hand and gave it to Xiao Xi, "This is a pastry I made myself. I''ll give it to Miss Xiao Xi to try." Xiao Xi finally smiled. He took the pastries and thanked her nonchalantly, before taking Song Jin in. Liu Jianfang''s courtyard is relatively large in the backyard but slightly remote, not far from the back door. Along the way, apart from occasionally encountering one or two handymen, no one else was seen. To Song Jin''s surprise. Xiao Xi actually took Song Jin directly into Liu Jianfang''s processing room. There were some medicinal materials that had not yet been concocted. According to Xiao Xi''s intention, Song Jin will be the one to cook it. "My lady has given me orders to make as much as you can in one day. Whatever you are good at, you can make it until tomorrow." Song Jin picked one thing to deal with. Pretty good, can''t fault it. Xiao Xi watched for a while and then left, but she would always pay attention to this place. This is only the first day. Song Jin didn''t want to do anything unnecessary. Do your part of the job peacefully. When the time was almost up, he left. Xiao Xi walked around the processing room and felt that there was no problem, so he paid Song Jin today''s wages. It was like this for several days. Until all the medicinal materials are finished. Song Jin didn''t even see Liu Jianfang appear. Xiao Xi said that she was working as an errand in the Taiyuan Hospital, and sometimes she didn''t leave the palace. When she came out, she left the house again. No, I just missed it. And Song Jin also knew that every move he made must be reported to Liu Jianfang. Only when Liu Jianfang had completely let down his guard could he make a routine. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! After returning home. The medicinal materials have been prepared for the time being and have been properly preserved. The next day, Song Jin didn''t receive any notification from the Liu family, so he didn''t need to go to the Liu family anymore and stayed in the pharmacy by himself. When I''m not studying pharmacology, I''m writing and drawing. The manual written is related to medicinal materials. Remember a sentence in the east and a sentence in the west, as if you are jotting down whatever comes to mind. And the handwriting is also deliberately ugly, only slightly better than that of beginners. "lady." Uncle Hong''s shout sounded at the door, "The steward of Liu''s Medical Center is here to visit you." "What is he here for?" Song Jin was surprised by this person''s arrival, "Didn''t I send you an apology last time? Isn''t it because he changed his mind this time and is looking for trouble?" Uncle Hong said: "I say I have something to ask for, but he is still outside the gate. Do you want to see him?" "Invite him to the living room." Song Jin decided to meet him. After standing up and straightening his appearance, Song Jin walked out of the pharmacy and walked to the living room. As soon as Manager Che saw Song Jin, he felt like he was seeing a savior, "Oh, Madam Qin, I can see you now. I''ve been here several times before and they all said you went to the Liu Mansion." "Thanks to Ambassador Liu for his kind heart and giving me a bite to eat." Song Jin''s sarcastic words sounded like the same thing. It almost made the secret guard laugh. Lao Li Tou just brought in two bowls of tea. Hearing Song Jin''s words, he couldn''t hold back his laughter until his hands shook and he spilled a little of the tea in the bowl. Manager Che was thick-skinned and continued to plead: "It was really a misunderstanding last time. It''s all because I didn''t explain it clearly at the time. I thought that when you first arrived in the capital and someone at home wanted to study, you would be short of money, so I wanted you to give me more money. If you do more, you can earn more to support your family. This is a face that is good for you. Song Jin found it funny. There are all kinds of people in the world. If she were young and energetic, a bowl of tea would be thrown in his face. "I''m here to ask Madam Qin for a favor and prepare a batch of medicinal materials." As the manager spoke, he held out three fingers and said, "As long as you agree, the wages will be tripled. Also, you can make as much as you want. We will calculate the wages according to the quantity." Song Jin still shook his head hesitantly, "Sorry, I can''t help you." Hearing this, the car manager is in a hurry! "Ms. Qin! Don''t refuse in a hurry. I''ll give you another five taels of subsidy afterwards. How about it? When the medicinal materials in the library are finished, you can say at least seventy or eighty taels." This is considered a high price. But it wont work if you dont give it. The medicinal materials in the storehouse will not be stored for a long time, so they must be prepared in time. If it breaks, ask him to advance money. Originally, he wanted to sell it to other pharmacies, but those people took advantage of the situation and were only willing to pay half the price. But Song Jin still shook his head. Chapter 190 a note Chapter 190 A Note "It''s not that I don''t want to respond. I''m currently working for Ambassador Liu of the Crude Medicine Library, and I''m free today." Song Jin moved Liu Jianfang out and declined. The manager''s face didn''t look good. I didn''t expect Song Jin to deliberately respond. After all, if she has done anything for Liu Jianfang, you can find out after just asking around. All I can say is that I didnt expect that I was unlucky. Song Jin added: "Ambassador Liu should know a lot of drug dealers. Would you like to ask her to help you?" "No, no, no, no, how can I go to the master''s house for such a trivial matter? That would make me look incompetent." As a steward, these are his duties. It was too late to cover it up. What''s more, some of this batch of medicinal materials were purchased by him privately and were not recorded in the account. Its just that no one concocted it. Manager Che was also afraid that the matter would be leaked, so since Song Jin couldn''t help, he left in a hurry. "Madam, aren''t you worried about the kid being difficult to deal with?" Lao Litou listened to everything. "Although I would rather offend a gentleman than a villain, I can''t help it." Song Jin suggested slowly, "Uncle Li can ask people from Shun''an to buy his medicinal materials. The quality is pretty good." If the medicinal materials are not good, the manager will not be greedy and buy too much. Lao Litou actually contacted him. If you don''t make money, you are a bastard. On the other side of the Liu Mansion, Liu Jianfang returned from the Imperial Hospital. Xiao Xi reported Song Jin''s matter to her. Liu Jianfang asked: "She didn''t behave strangely, or did she go to the front yard and catch up with other people in my family?" "No, she has been staying in the medicine room." Xiao Xi observed Song Jin for several days, "She is a responsible woman, and she also packs the medicinal materials very well." Liu Jianfang went to check the medicinal materials prepared by Song Jin and their storage conditions. From this we can see the meticulousness of Song Jin''s work. "Ask her to come again tomorrow." Liu Jianfang ordered to go down, Xiao Xi humbly responded. Song Jin quickly received the news. the next day. Song Jin went to the Liu Mansion again, still carrying the notes he had recorded. When he saw Liu Jianfang, Song Jin saluted, "I''ve met you, sir." "You don''t need to be so polite. You prepared those medicinal materials very well. I just have some questions about the storage." Liu Jianfang raised her doubts. The two of them went back and forth. It''s all about medicinal materials and storage. Afterwards, Song Jin took out the note and asked Liu Jianfang a few questions. His eagerness to learn was recognized by Liu Jianfang, "In the lounge next to me, there are some medical books and books about preparing medicinal materials. You can read them." "Really? Thank you so much, sir." Song Jin said happily. Liu Jianfang was thinking about whether to let Song Jin work as an errand in the Imperial Hospital. There is such a masterful craftsmanship. It would give her a lot of relief. Liu Jianfang hurried to Tai Hospital. When Song Jin saw the fresh medicinal materials, he took the lead in picking them and spent another morning preparing them. During the lunch break, Song Jin stepped into the next door room for the first time. Push open the mahogany carved door. The first thing you see is a large screen. The desks in front of the screen are covered with paper, and there are pen and ink inkstones. On the left wall is a bookshelf filled with books. There is a small couch on the right, covered with embroidered cushions, and next to it is a small coffee table with a white porcelain tea set. There is a pot of blooming peonies placed on a six-legged stand indoors, exuding a faint fragrance. Sunlight shines through the window lattice and onto the couch, where people can take a nap, read, or drink tea. After Song Jin entered, he went to look at the books on the bookshelf. Xiao Xi said from the side: "My lady is a book-cherishing person. Madam Qin, please be careful not to damage the books." "I know this." Song Jin responded, "Thank you, Miss Xiao Xi, for reminding me." "It''s okay, we will be our own people from now on." Xiao Xi knew that her young lady valued Song Jin, so her attitude became better. But it''s only good. The contempt that came from his bones didn''t change much. After all, Song Jin is just an ordinary person now, and he came from a farm family. Song Jin pretended to concentrate on reading, and after Xiao Xi went out, she looked around the entire lounge. Come to the door with book in hand. Seeing no one around, he closed the door. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Then he came to the window and pretended to look at the scenery. When he saw no one outside, he closed the window halfway, leaving only a gap. At this time, Song Jin began to rummage. This is the room where Liu Jianfang usually rests, and it is close to the processing room. There are also books and small couches, which is equivalent to half of her study. It is said to be half because Liu Jianfang''s boudoir is not here, and there is also a separate study room. No one is usually guarding here. There shouldn''t be any important things on display, but the information regarding medicinal materials and processing is quite complete here. Song Jin flipped through the books on the shelf one by one, looking very quickly to see if there were hidden compartments. What a pity, I touched it several times. No hidden compartments were found. This looks like just an ordinary bookshelf. Song Jin looked around the room carefully. It was not a very big place, and there were not many furnishings. It was almost clear at a glance. Finally, Song Jin turned his attention to several cases. I came to sit down in front of the desk and carefully turned over the things on the desk. There was nothing unusual. So, she started exploring a few more cases. When my hand was touching the bottom of the case, I suddenly touched something. After groping for a while, I opened a hidden compartment. It''s a few booklets. Song Jin took it out and opened the one on top. Suddenly, her pupils opened wide. "Is it the ancestral handbook of the Song family?" Song Jin was surprised. This is a note left by the old medicine man, or a note on preparing a medicinal material. It is the treasure of her Song family, and it is also stamped with the Song family''s seal. Song Jin''s anger instantly surged into his mind. It almost swallowed up her sanity. Suddenly, I heard footsteps approaching from far away. It was for this lounge. Song Jin suddenly calmed down, and quickly put the notebook back into its original position, and then restored the hidden compartment to its original state. Lay out the white paper and pretend to grind the ink. Just in time to hear the ajar door being pushed open. Xiao Xi came in carrying a wooden food box, "Ms. Qin, what are you going to write?" "I just read the medicine book, but don''t write down anything you haven''t learned before, lest you forget it." Song Jin''s words revealed simplicity and sincerity. Therefore, Xiao Xi had no doubts. Put down the lunch that was brought to you. "This is food given to you by the kitchen. You can eat before you get busy. Someone will come to collect the dishes and chopsticks later." After Xiao Xi finished speaking, she went out. Song Jin hid her slightly trembling hands under her sleeves and recovered. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath to calm down her ups and downs. After a long time, she opened the food box. Absently, I started to eat lunch. When the little maid who came to clean up came over, Song Jin just put down the bowls and chopsticks. Soon. The little maid made another pot of tea for Song Jin. Chapter 191 Dont worry Chapter 191 Dont worry He left Liu Mansion and returned home. The gloom in Song Jin''s heart never dissipated, and she ate, washed and went into the house to rest without saying a word. Old Li Tou originally wanted to tell Song Jin that someone in Shun''an went to contact Manager Che, but he didn''t find a chance for a while. "Didn''t you see that Madam was in a bad mood?" Old Man Hong glanced sideways at Old Li and said. Old Li Tou guessed, "Nothing will happen in the Liu Mansion, right?" "There should be something wrong." Old Man Hong summoned a secret guard to ask. Yes, this old man used to be the leader of the secret guards. He was very much used by the prince. When he was injured, he would go to the public place. Come here to retire. Old Man Hong asked: "Did anything happen in the Liu Mansion, madam?" "There''s no problem. Except for her lunch break, Madam spends the rest of her time in Miss Liu''s medicine room." The secret guard recalled what was unusual today, "The only difference from the previous few days is that at noon today, Madam went to the lounge next door, which used to be the room where Liu Jianfang occasionally rested." Old Man Hong waved his hand to signal the other party to step back. Old Li Tou thought deeply: "Mrs. 80% of the time you have discovered something?" "That''s what I guessed too." Old Man Hong thought for a while, "It''s a pity that the young master is not at home. Madam may not trust us." "You are right, Madam is not the kind of delicate woman we have seen before, who can only live by men." Old Li Tou lived in Qinjiagou and had the deepest impression. After living for most of my life, I still have the ability to recognize people. The couple seems to be in a good relationship. In fact, the wife''s reliance on the young master is limited. Both old men saw something different in Song Jin. Unlike women in this dynasty who were born to rely on men for survival, Song Jin was very thoughtful. She can still live well without relying on a man. Rather than women who are weak and burden the young master, they want a mistress who can take charge of her own affairs. Song Jin is good like this. But Song Jin, who was recognized by the two, was not so calm. The anger that had been suppressed in Liu Mansion no longer needed to be disguised when he was alone. The Liu family really has a problem! Song Jin didn''t sleep well all night. Wait for the next morning. She went to Liu''s house as usual. In the past, I would occasionally see Liu Jianfang. He seemed to be very busy, coming and going in a hurry. He would only discuss with Song Jin when he encountered problems about preparing medicinal materials. Song Jin gradually became familiar with Xiao Xi. Occasionally, he would send some pastries he made to Xiao Xi and the maid in Liu Jianfangs yard. Only half a month. Song Jin occasionally told some anecdotes, and with snacks and cakes, he gradually became familiar with the others. When chatting, Song Jin would not take the initiative to ask about the secrets of the Liu family''s back rooms, but would listen quietly without interrupting. Occasionally, I would ask some indirect questions about Liu Jianfang. Just not familiar with it yet. Don''t dare to ask in depth. On this day, Song Jin touched his sore waist and slowly walked towards the back door. Old Li Tou was waiting in the alley at the back door with his carriage. As soon as he saw Song Jin coming out, he greeted him. Song Jin stepped on the stool and got into the carriage. He paused for a moment as soon as he opened the heavy curtain, and then continued to duck in. "Ms. sir, is the academy on holiday?" A rare smile appeared on Song Jin''s face, and he sat down naturally. Qin Chi is wearing the uniform of the Imperial Academy. The green-blue straight skirt, wide cuffs, and a plain silk ribbon tied around the waist make it look particularly simple and solemn. He is the scholar who walked out of the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River. His face was clear-cut, and his eyes were like a deep lake, sparkling with calmness. At this time, these eyes were looking at Song Jin steadily. From the moment she walked in to the moment she sat down. Qin Chi pulled him to his side and sat down, "People say a goodbye is better than a wedding. Not only did I not see it on your face, why are you sitting so far away from me?" Song Jin felt inexplicably guilty at his words, "I just finished my work and I''m dirty. I don''t want to get your clean school uniform on it." "I don''t mind." Qin Chi didn''t know when he had held her soft hand and started talking about what happened in the Imperial College. Life in the Imperial College is full of pressure and competition, but it gives Qin Chi a different experience. At first, they knew that he was just a scholar, and those classmates didn''t pay much attention to him. It''s not enough to be difficult. In a place like the Imperial College, students without backing or support must be humble and courteous in everything they say and do. Qin Chi was lucky. The tempers of several roommates are pretty good. "This is also due to the basket of pastries prepared by my wife. Those roommates were very happy to eat." Qin Chi did not expect this at first. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Carrying a food basket to the dormitory was just a chance to win his heart. As the saying goes, eating people has a short mouth. Don''t underestimate this little detail, people don''t value your cheap pastries too much. But this is a sincere intention, at least the etiquette is there. The carriage drove slowly on the street. With a slight smile on her eyebrows, Song Jin listened quietly to Qin Chi''s words, and occasionally responded with a word or two. Qin Chi, who originally only wanted to talk briefly, unconsciously said too much, "I have said so much, where is my wife? Did anything happen at home?" "My daily life is very simple." Song Jin talked about her affairs one by one, and the matter of a few words was gone, but as she spoke, the smile on her face faded, "I saw the letters handed down from the ancestors of the Song family in Liu Jianfang''s lounge. " Qin Chi''s starry eyes changed suddenly, "Seriously? Did you read it correctly?" "With the Song family''s seal, it can''t be wrong." Song Jin said very confidently, "I have seen some handwritten notes passed down by the family before, but most of these handwritten notes were kept by his father. If they were transferred to the Liu family, they should have been copied during the house raid." Those people not only took away the Song family at that time. I also took away the things I copied. Qin Chi asked softly: "What are you going to do?" "I''m getting close to the servants in that yard, and I''m just getting acquainted with him now. Let''s talk about it after a while." Song Jin knew that if these things want to leave no trace, they must not be in a hurry. Building trust between people requires a process. At least Xiao Xi''s attitude towards Song Jin is much better now. She occasionally talks about Liu Jianfang, but it has little effect on Song Jin. Qin Chi held her hand. His big hand patted the back of her hand gently. This is a habit he has when he is in a state of thinking, a small subconscious action. "Do you really have to go deep into the tiger''s den yourself?" Qin Chi didn''t agree. Song Jin said with a serious face: "Please rest assured, sir, for the sake of your future, I will not act rashly. Moreover, Liu Jianfang still has some principles in her actions, and she is also very easy-going towards the servants in her yard." "Do you think I can really feel relieved if you say this?" As soon as Qin Chi said these words, Song Jin was stunned. After a long while, he looked directly into her eyes and said seriously, "It''s impossible to rest assured. Even if someone protects me, I will still worry about something happening, and I will be beyond my reach in the Imperial College." "I, I will find out as soon as possible." Song Jin subconsciously avoided his sight. It was his gaze that made her flinch a little for some reason, and a very strange feeling spread in her heart, a little strange and a little happy at the same time. It was quiet for a long time. Qin Chi finally said as if he had no choice but to compromise: "I believe you." "Thank you." What else did Song Jin want to say. The carriage stopped at exactly this time. Old Li Tou''s words came from outside, "Sir, madam, we are home." Chapter 192 Neighbor gossip Chapter 192 Neighbors Gossip Qin Chi returned home for only one day. Song Jin did not go to Liu Mansion that day. He stayed with Qin Chi at home. When he went to deal with things, he also went into his medicine room. From the bottom compartment of the medicine shelf. He took out several medicinal materials and began to make medicine. Among these medicinal materials was Golden Flower. Song Jin''s prepared medicinal materials are excellent. He also understands pharmacology and medicine. What Qin Chi said on the carriage yesterday was truly heard by her. When she put herself in danger, she didn''t take it to heart. But the family will be worried. Now she is no longer alone. After being married for so long, she only now realizes that she really did not consider Qin Chi''s thoughts. This drug only causes hallucinations and will not kill people. But there are no sequelae. You may feel a little dizzy when you wake up, and you may also experience nausea and vomiting, which is very similar to a hangover. The medicinal powder has just been prepared. About to put it into a small porcelain bottle. "Tuk-tuk." Qin Chi knocked on the door to signal. The door was not closed. Song Jin looked up at the door and saw Qin Chi stepping into the medicine room against the sunlight. "Madam, you are so busy that you even forgot lunch?" Song Jin raised his head and looked out the window. It was indeed noon. Qin Chi sat on a stool aside and looked at the bottles and jars in her hands. She was clearly finishing the work, "I heard Old Uncle Li say that you asked him to collect a batch of medicinal materials from the medical center and let him resell them and make a profit. One stroke. Song Jin did not deny it. At that time, she was still thinking of working harder and helping them concoct medicinal materials. However, Shun''an didn''t look for her. This is obviously something a master has to solve. Song Jin packed up and went to have lunch with Qin Chi. Then, he went to the kitchen and made some pastries. After dinner, Qin Chi was going to the Imperial College, so Song Jin brought up a food basket. "My husband, bring some pastries. You can use them to cushion your stomach when you are hungry at night." Song Jin did not send people to the Imperial Academy this time, but just sent them out the door. Qin Chi saw so many pastries. Then he knew that he was asking him to take it as a favor and give it to his classmates. It would not be appropriate to give it to anything else, but some pastries from my hometown are just right. But Qin Chi didn''t want others to eat the food made by his wife, because this was her wish. Qin Chi took the food basket and said, "Thank you, madam." He picked up the basket and got into the carriage. Old Uncle Li drove away. Song Jin stood for a while and was about to go back to the house. "Hey, Madam Qin, is your scholar husband going to the academy?" A lady next door greeted with a smile, "Why are you going so late? Don''t you wait until tomorrow morning?" Song Jin had no choice but to stand still and said politely: "Tomorrow morning I have a normal morning class, so there is no need to rush to go now. Aunt Kang, have you had dinner?" "Not yet. By the time my man gets off work, my eldest grandson hasn''t come back from private school yet." Aunt Kang came over in a few steps. He looked around, then looked at the front door of Qin''s house, "Don''t you see Mr. Hong?" "Uncle Hong is in the house." Song Jin rarely saw people. They live in the same house, but they live and eat in different places, and they don''t see each other every day. Aunt Kang gossiped again: "I heard that your husband went to an academy to study. Which academy did he get admitted to? I haven''t heard of any academy accepting students." Those little eyes are sneaky. It was as if he was waiting for Song Jin to answer his questions. Song Jin didn''t know what she meant, "Auntie, don''t you know where my husband-in-law goes to school?" "Yeah, that old lady at the alley spread a rumor that your husband-in-law went to a run-down academy, the kind that no one wants and where there are very few students." Mrs. Kang said a lot. After listening for a long time, Song Jin finally understood. Look elsewhere. Several neighbors were very curious. For example, there was a young daughter-in-law in the house opposite who was listening. Aunt Kang added: "They say that famous academies recruit students in February and March every year." Scholars who come from afar. Its not easy to live in a university, even if you dont have personal connections, its difficult to get into school. It''s just that this house doesn''t show off its beauty. Enrolled quietly. How did you get admitted? Isn''t this just speculation? Some people say they went through the back door, others said they went to an unpopular academy, the kind that has no students and accepts those who sign up. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Not many good things to say anyway. Song Jin didn''t want these people to ruin Qin Chi''s reputation, so he smiled and said: "My husband-in-law does not enroll in school at the normal time. I heard that he got the admission quota and said he could enroll at any time and take the entrance exam at any time. Still coming alone. I dont know. Aunt Kang was stunned. This doesn''t sound right to me. "What''s the quota? Are you so powerful?" Aunt Kang was extremely curious. Song Jin knew that these people were nothing on the surface, but in their hearts they were probably waiting to see a joke. It''s not that Song Jin has a dark heart. There are certain people in this world who harbor ill will towards outsiders for no reason, as if the worse their lives are, the happier they will be. Song Jin deliberately said calmly: "It''s nothing, it''s just a quota for Gongsheng students." The next moment. Aunt Kang''s smile froze, "Gong, Gongsheng, isn''t your husband a scholar?" "Yes, my husband-in-law got Xiao Sanyuan, so the academic master over there gave my husband-in-law a place as a tribute student." Song Jin didn''t want to show off, but he didn''t hold it back. He still said helplessly on the surface: "I didn''t say it before, but my husband-in-law stopped me. He said that these were just false names and not worth mentioning. I didn''t expect that the neighbors would misunderstand." "Ouch, the soup is still simmering in the kitchen. I wonder if the fire has gone out. I''ll go take a look first and talk to Madam Qin when I have time." Aunt Kang didn''t wait for Song Jin to speak. People just walked away in a hurry. Qin Chi suddenly went to the academy and didn''t come home for half a month. Song Jin often went out for a long time and had little contact with his neighbors, so he was misunderstood and some gossips started. Song Jin might not care about it, but he couldn''t help but think that Qin Chi was a scholar. Scholars value reputation most and need a good reputation. When Song Jin went back, he happened to see the cook and the washing woman at home, looking at Song Jin with admiration. The cook''s surname is Feng, and her family calls her Aunt Feng. The woman who washed the clothes was named Pan, and everyone called her Mrs. Pan. I heard that both of them were poor and had no children, but they were hard-working people and could make a living. When I arrived at the host''s house, I was also uneasy at first. Later I found out that as long as they did their job well. Both masters have good tempers and will not beat or scold anyone at all. Song Jin smiled and said: "There are still some pastries in the kitchen. You can eat them and leave some for Uncle Hong and the others." "Thank you ma''am." "Thank you ma''am." Chef Feng and Mrs. Pan looked happy. Song Jin nodded and went back to the pharmacy, where he stayed until late at night. Early the next morning, Song Jin went to Liu Mansion again. Song Jin brought two boxes of cakes. One box was given to the eldest maid Xiao Xi, and the other half was invited to the little girl and mother-in-law in the yard to eat together. Chapter 193 cliché Chapter 193 Rhetoric When you get together with a few people, it is inevitable that you will start gossiping. Song Jin directed the words to Liu Jianfang. Song Jin pretended to be emotional and said: "Ambassador Liu is such an outstanding person and good-looking. I don''t know which young master I want to give him cheaply in the future." "That''s right, Miss. What a nice person." A maid said while eating cakes, "I have been working as an errand in Lianfang Court for so long, but I have never heard from the eldest lady that she wants to propose to the young lady." "That''s weird. It''s time for you to kiss me." Song Jin showed some curiosity. Liu Jianfang was seventeen years old, but the Liu family did not propose marriage to her. This in itself does not make sense. A woman guarding the courtyard gate whispered: "Ms. Qin, I don''t know. The young lady is engaged in a marriage, but the other party has not come to propose marriage for a long time. However, it is wrong to say that the family has no intention. They come to the Liu family every year with gifts, and they also come to the Liu family. I will specially prepare a gift for the lady. This news was unknown to Song Jin. People outside did not know that Liu Jianfang was engaged. Song Jin pretended to be curious and asked in a low voice: "Which young master is this?" The woman said: "I heard it was..." "What are you doing?" A scream sounded not far away. The person who came was none other than Liu Jianfang''s other maid, Xiao Huan. She glared at them angrily with a cute face, "Are you all hiding here? Have you finished all your work?" "Oh, Miss Xiao Huan, Mrs. Qin brought some cakes today, and we left a few pieces for you." A woman stepped forward with a smile to please her. Pass the pastries in the box to Xiao Huan. Xiao Huan pouted, "What''s so delicious about this pastry? It''s not as delicious as Zhengmingzhai''s." He said this in his mouth, but it felt smooth in his hands. Pick up a piece and pop it into your mouth. While eating, I despised it. Song Jin looked at her but didn''t say anything. Xiao Huan was the most difficult person to serve in the whole yard, but she didn''t have any bad intentions. She just had a tricky temper towards other maids and wives. At this time, Song Jin didn''t stay much. Went back to work. The medicinal materials that Liu Jianfang brought back and prepared were usually rarely available on the market or relatively precious, so the portions of the medicinal materials were generally not very large. In addition to the number of medicinal materials when I first came, there were seven or eight kinds, and I was delayed because of looking for trillium. Wait until those are finished. Next, there are one or two medicinal materials to be concocted each time. Just like today, it''s just the same. After Song Jin finished dealing with it, he came to the lounge. His eyes fell on the medical books on the bookshelf. She didn''t pay attention to these medical books earlier, or the Liu family originally studied medicine. It''s not surprising that Liu Jianfang has medical books here. As long as there is nothing mixed in the books, it is not worth paying attention to. But this time when she was flipping through it. I was attracted by a medical book. Not the content, but the Song clan emblem on the last page. The Song family in Huizhou did not learn medical skills. The collection of books is very rich. But when the house was ransacked, it had already been ransacked. Liu Jianfang not only had the pharmacist''s notes in her hand, but she also had medical books? "What are you looking at?" A cold voice sounded from behind. Song Jin was startled. He was so absorbed in thinking just now that he didn''t notice someone coming in. He turned around and saw Liu Jianfang, wearing official uniform looking at her. Song Jin quickly raised the medical book and said, "It''s a medical book. Why are you back?" Liu Jianfang glanced at the medical book in her hand. She didn''t mean to blame. Instead, she seemed to be holding back her anger. "Those old guys are just trying to find ways to find trouble with me. When prescribing medicines, they only choose the ones that are scarce in the inventory." The stock and quantity of medicinal materials in the herbal medicine library are considerable. But I can''t stand someone who is not a human being. Scarce medicinal materials are intentionally consumed. Isn''t it just her, the ambassador, who is going to make supplements? Song Jin listened to Liu Jianfang complaining. After spending this time together, Liu Jianfang regarded Song Jin as one of his own. Song Jin listened quietly. Xiaoxi nodded as she brought tea and fruits. He also prepared a bowl of tea for Song Jin. The two started chatting again, and Song Jin suddenly said, "How about a drink? I heard that getting drunk can relieve a thousand worries." Liu Jianfang was stunned, "I don''t drink, because drinking can easily cause trouble." "Are you worried in your yard?" Song Jin asked pretending to be surprised. Liu Jianfang thought the same thing, "It''s not necessary in my own territory." "When you come back at this hour, you probably haven''t eaten yet. You just want the kitchen to cook some dishes to go with the wine." Song Jin went out to ask Xiao Xi to prepare. It happened to be lunch time. The kitchen is also ready. Just a few dishes and wine. Liu Jianfang asked Song Jin to drink with him. Song Jin pretended to be a novice in drinking and choked on the wine several times. Liu Jianfang found that he was in a better mood and drank a few more drinks without realizing it, but he was not drunk. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! When I was almost drunk. Song Jin pretended to be choked by his drink again, got up and went to the coffee table to pour some tea. With his back to Liu Jianfang, Song Jin pretended to be a little drunk and said: "This wine is not good at all, and I don''t see any relief from my sorrow." "Haha, Mrs. Qin is still so naive after getting married." Liu Jianfang laughed and poured himself another glass of wine. Song Jin took advantage of the cover of his sleeves. He took out another clean tea bowl and knocked the medicinal powder hidden in his fingernails to the bottom of the bowl. Lift up the teapot again and pour out the tea. The water falls into the bowl and quickly dissolves the medicinal powder. There are not only Liu Jianfang and Song Jin here. At the door, Xiao Xi and Xiao Huan were still guarding. In fact, both of them saw Song Jin going to pour tea, but she poured it for herself, so they didn''t come to serve her. After all, they thought they were Liu Jianfang''s maids, and they looked down on farm wives from the bottom of their hearts. This just gave Song Jin the opportunity to prescribe medicine. Song Jin handed a bowl of tea to Liu Jianfang, drank another cup of tea, and then looked at Xiao Xi and Xiao Huan at the door, "Don''t Miss Xiao Xi and Miss Xiao Huan need to eat?" Liu Jianfang did not doubt that it was there. She picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, "That''s right, you two go have lunch, otherwise the people in the big kitchen will say that you are late and have nothing to eat." Thinking of something, Liu Jianfang''s eyes flashed with cruelty. Song Jin lowered his eyelids and drank tea. How can there be nothing troublesome in the backyard of this wealthy family? Unexpectedly, Song Jin sent the two of them away so easily, and Song Jin did not pour any more tea. Liu Jianfang only drank half a bowl of tea. This was enough. Gradually, her eyes became blurred. Song Jin came to sit next to her and asked in her ear with a somewhat erratic voice: "Liu Jianfang, where did you get Song''s pharmaceutical notes?" "A gift from someone else..." Liu Jianfang murmured in reply. Song Jin asked again: "Who gave it to me?" Liu Jianfang''s eyes were still blurred, but there was a hint of disgust, and then she pursed her lips and said nothing. This can only create hallucinations. It''s not necessarily possible to come up with words. Song Jin took out the medical book from earlier and asked Liu Jianfang where he got it. The answer he got was still that someone else gave it to her. Every time I ask who sent it. Liu Jianfang always keeps his mouth shut. "Did your Liu family give it to you?" Song Jin asked softly in her ear again. Liu Jianfang shook his head, "That person is a bastard..." After saying this, she leaned back on the chair and closed her eyes. Are you going to sleep? Song Jin quickly exchanged the tea bowl in front of her with her own cup, then poured the tea into the soil of the potted plant to cover up the tea leaves. Pour another cup of tea. Even the tea bowl was washed with tea. Now even the traces are erased. Song Jin went to help Liu Jianfang to sleep on the couch, and then he pretended to be half drunk and sat on the chair. When Xiao Xi and Xiao Huan came over, they didn''t suspect anything at all. Chapter 194 new clues Chapter 194 New clues Song Jin was not without gains today. At least she knew that Liu Jianfang''s book was given to her by someone else, not from the Liu family. Who gave her the book? After Song Jin returned home, he went directly into the study and took out the investigation materials related to Liu Jianfang, including those who had contacts with the Liu family. This survey is not yet available. But according to the woman guarding the courtyard gate, Liu Jianfang had a fianc, but she just didn''t tell anyone about it. Song Jin believed in Qin Chi''s investigation. But I also believed what the woman said, and when asked about the origin of the manuscript and medical book, Liu Jianfang''s attitude was also very strange. Song Jin hid the doubts in his heart. The next day. Go to Liu Mansion again. I finished my work in the morning. Song Jin came to the lounge again. Liu Jianfang is not here today. She came to the lounge to read, and Xiao Xi was sewing clothes with a sewing basket. "You''re a peasant woman, why are you so eager to learn?" Xiao Xi raised her head and glanced at Song Jin, who was reading a book. "If you make progress, you won''t be a concocter of medicinal materials? But not everyone can be like my lady and become an ambassador of the Taiyuan Hospital." "I just want to learn more so that I can help adults." Song Jin said this very nicely. Sure enough, Xiao Xi''s expression improved, "Okay, then you study hard." Song Jin lowered his eyelids and asked as if he had no intention of asking: "There are so many medical books here! Miss Xiao Xi, are these all collected by adults?" "Of course, Miss has learned it all." Xiaoxi answered without thinking. Song Jin added, "That master is really awesome, but I don''t know how he collected them?" "The Liu family learned it, or bought it, or it was given by others." Xiao Xi didn''t think it was a secret, so she just said it. Everyone in the yard knows it. Song Jin came to Xiao Xi with a medical book and pretended to flip through it, "This ancient medical book is very old. I wonder who gave it to it?" "Oh, I remember this." Xiao Xi actually still remembered this book, "It was sent by Master Liu." "Hey, is he your fianc?" Song Jin asked in surprise. Xiao Xi was startled and quickly covered her mouth. She looked outside the door again and was relieved when she saw no one. She warned in a low voice: "Don''t mention the word fianc in the yard. The lady doesn''t like Young Master Liu. " Song Jin wants to say that you have mentioned it. Xiao Xi deceived herself and sat back down, picked up her needle and thread and started sewing. She was no longer willing to talk to Song Jin, but Song Jin also quietly read the medical book. Waited for quite a while. Song Jin recalled the survey data. It was not that there were no families with the surname Liu in the capital, but their family status was comparable to that of the Liu family. Moreover, in that data, there was no Liu family who was on good terms with the Liu family. This is another point that Song Jin doubts. Song Jin had believed the investigation results given by Qin Chi before, but now the person behind it was not even found out by Liu Jianfang''s fianc. Only write that you have never been married? It turns out that there is someone, and his surname is Liu. Then, among the connections related to the Liu family, there is no family named Liu. Song Jin put the medical books back into the academy. He sat next to Xiao Xi and poured a cup of tea. Song Jin said like a gossip: "Miss Xiao Xi, which Liu family in the capital is worthy of you? I''ve been here for so many days, but I haven''t heard of any outstanding eldest son of the Liu family." "It''s not from the capital." Xiao Xi drank tea and looked at the door again, "It''s the Liu family of Jianning Prefecture, a local aristocratic family." "It''s so far away. If you get married, wouldn''t you have to marry far away?" Song Jin pretended to be surprised. Xiao Xi would never have said this to Song Jin before. But after such a long time, she has regarded Song Jin as one of her own, and she is still valued by her young lady. So Xiao Xi began to complain, "I don''t know what the master was thinking, but he decided to arrange this marriage for the young lady. She has to stay away from the capital, and it''s hard to find support from her mother-in-law for anything." After marrying far away, it will be difficult to return to Beijing. Judging from Liu Jianfang''s official position, she did not want to marry far away. Even if she gets married, I''m afraid she doesn''t want to accept her fate and go to Jianning Mansion. You must know that Jianning Mansion is further south than Huizhou, and the next state capital is the sea. When Song Jin came home from Liu Mansion, she met Old Man Hong at the door. "Uncle Hong." Song Jin greeted. Old Man Hong pursed his lips tightly and looked serious. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! After coming to the capital for so long, Song Jin rarely saw him. Every time he saw him, he had a cold face and never saw him smile. "What happened to Madam? If you need help, you can talk to me. I have lived here in the capital for most of my life, and I still have some connections." Old Man Hong noticed something unusual about Song Jin these past two days. Lao Li was holding a bowl of noodles. Coming out of the kitchen, he was eating while coming out. "Yes, Old Man Hong is still young, and Madam will not honor him so early on behalf of the young master." Old Li Tou said cheerfully. Song Jin also noticed it at this time. Old Man Hong''s identity may not be that simple. So, Song Jin went straight to the point and said: "I found the letters and medical books of the Song family from Miss Liu Jianfang, Liu Jianfang, and I also found out that they were given by the eldest young master of the Liu family in Jianning Prefecture. It is said that the two have an engagement." Old Li''s eyes widened suddenly, "How is that possible?" "What''s impossible?" Song Jin looked at her doubtfully. Old Li Tou has also read the investigation data, "Liu Jianfang is not married, and there is no news about the relationship between the Liu family and the Liu family. We have not received any information here." Song Jin didn''t say anything. However, Old Man Hong said, "It should be just a verbal engagement, and the Liu family has not yet made an appointment." The journey is long and it is not easy to find a job. Maybe both parties were not satisfied with this marriage, but it happened that Liu Bingzheng had promised this marriage. In this way, it makes sense that Liu Jianfang is seventeen years old and has not yet approached a matchmaker to propose marriage. Old Li Tou took another big mouthful of noodles and said, "What has Chi Wanhua been doing in the capital these years? His group of scoundrels see no use in him and haven''t even investigated this trivial matter." Old Man Hong knows who Chi Wanhua is. He was the shopkeeper of Shun''an Hongshang''s branch in Beijing. He has a group of people under his command to collect all kinds of news in the capital. But the development time is only a few years, so it is good to find these. Song Jin actually didn''t mean to blame the other party. So she changed the subject: "Uncle Li, do you have any news about the Liu family in Jianning Prefecture? Especially about Young Master Liu. I want to find out where he got the medical books and manuscripts from the Song family." "This requires sending a message to Jianning Mansion and asking people there to investigate. Madam also knows that Jianning is further away than Huizhou, and it would take months just to get the information back and forth." Lao Li first gave Song Jin a heads up. Song Jin was anxious, but also knew that this matter could not be rushed, "I know, and I can wait." After searching for more than ten years in the previous life, plus this life, what else can I afford? Therefore, Song Jin''s mentality is much more stable than the two of them expected. Chapter 195 Classmates Chapter 195 Classmates That night, Qin Chi received a message from the secret guard in the Imperial College. "Jianning Liu family?" Qin Chi thought thoughtfully, "The Liu family seems to be Yang Lingyu''s Yue family?" Qin Yi was surprised. Do you remember such partial news? I have to say, when it comes to who has the best memory, it has to be the young master. Qin Yi didn''t speak, and Qin Chi didn''t expect him to answer him. He immediately thought of the Liu family''s deep-rooted influence in Jianning Mansion. It is really possible that the Liu family was involved in the Huizhou Song family matter. Qin Chi asked again: "The people in Jianning didn''t find any clues about the Song family?" "No." Qin Yi denied it. This all made Qin Chi wonder whether the people under his command were really just doing nothing. Even his wife came forward and found out the key clues in just a short time. On the contrary, his people, after two or three months of investigation, even got it wrong whether the other party was married. Qin Chi thought of the recently integrated forces. It really should be checked again. Immediately, Qin Chi gave several instructions to different people, asking them to not only keep an eye on the Yang family, but also focus on checking the Jianning Liu family. Remember, dont alert others. Qin Chi warned, and Qin Yi responded and disappeared into the night. Just came out of the rockery in the garden. "Hey, Qi''an, you can''t sleep either?" A young boy''s clear voice sounded in the night. Qin Chi turned around and happened to see Ling Yuanhao, who was in the same class. This man was slightly bent over, carrying something unknown in his arms. Qin Chi said half-jokingly: "The moonlight is so strong that I can''t help but come out and enjoy it. Brother Yuan Hao is the same, isn''t it?" "Exactly, that''s the truth! I''m here to appreciate the moonlight, definitely not to eat roast chicken." Ling Yuanhao found a reason and successfully convinced himself. Qin Chi was speechless. No wonder you smell the aroma of roasted chicken. Ling Yuanhao walked up to Qin Chi, looked left and right, and saw that no one was around, so he took out an oil paper bag from his arms. He tore off a chicken leg and stuffed it into Qin Chi''s hand. "Eat, eat, you are complicit." Ling Yuanhao grabbed the roasted chicken and ate it. Chewing until your mouth is full of oil. Qin Chi raised his hand to look at the chicken legs and asked, "Where did you get the chicken roasted in the middle of the night?" "The kitchen." Ling Yuanhao said unclearly. Qin Chi finally knew that the chicken was probably stolen, "You went to the kitchen to eat secretly, and if you were caught by the superintendent, you would be punished. Have you ever thought about the consequences of this?" "Why steal it? I bought it." Ling Yuanhao was unhappy, "I''ve put down some money, and that money is enough to buy ten roast chickens." Of course, Ling Yuanhao didn''t care who the roast chicken belonged to. Because he paid. This logic is really out of the question. Qin Chi stuffed the chicken legs back into his hand and said, "I won''t eat at night, so you can eat it yourself." "You are so eccentric." Ling Yuanhao muttered softly. Qin Chi wanted to say something else, but suddenly he saw a patrolman appearing in the corridor at the other end. He quickly pointed there and then ran towards the dormitory. Ling Yuanhao also noticed it and hurriedly ran away. When I got back to the dormitory yard. The courtyard door was closed. Ling Yuanhao breathed a sigh of relief, "I said Qi''an, do you really not want to eat these chicken legs? It''s very delicious." "Don''t eat." Qin Chi came to the well and fetched a bucket of water to wash his hands. My hands are full of oil, I really admire this idiot. Ling Yuanhao squatted aside and ate the roasted chicken. The smell was so delicious that people were confused. "Leave some water for me. I will wash my hands later." Qin Chi left him half a bucket. Stand up again and go back to the dormitory. "Don''t, don''t go, stay with me for a while. It''s chilly here, and I''m a little scared to be alone." Ling Yuanhao was almost full, but he started to get cold. Qin Chi was speechless again, "Why weren''t you afraid when you went to the kitchen alone before?" "How is that the same? I was hungry at the time." Ling Yuanhao said matter-of-factly. Qin Chi looked Ling Yuanhao up and down, "Are you hungry at Ling Dinghou Mansion?" "This is different." Ling Yuanhao started to get a little coy when he mentioned this, "The stolen roast chicken is more fragrant." When Qin Chi heard this reason, he turned around and left. Ling Yuanhao quickly stepped forward to stop him, took another big bite of chicken leg meat, swallowed it in two or three times and said, "I''m serious, do you want to give it a try? I''ve tried it many times." "Come on, I believe it." Qin Chi looked at the other party with pity. After he finished chewing the roasted chicken, he buried the chicken bones skillfully. Go and wash your hands again. Then he followed Qin Chi back to the dormitory. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The two of them were not in the same dormitory. It was Ling Yuanhao who changed his mind and moved in with Qin Chi in the same dormitory. In the Imperial College, everyone is obviously a student. There is also a clear hierarchy behind the scenes. Clan members of the royal family, children of aristocratic families, and officials'' children each have their own circles, while students from poor families are at the bottom. Qin Chi entered the school with excellent grades and was admitted as a Gongsheng student. He did not receive much contempt, but he was still jealous. As soon as I entered school, I was repeatedly troubled by others. However, some of the rich and powerful children who have obtained admission places under the patronage of their ancestors always discriminate against students from poor backgrounds and often find trouble behind others'' backs. It was Ling Yuanhao who stood up for the first time. In order to defend Qin Chi, he got into a fight with someone and stayed in bed for three days, and was even punished by the school supervisor. Since then, Qin Chi has been a little tolerant of Ling Yuanhao. After all, this person is a bit stupid, there is no smart person around to give him advice, and he doesn''t even know he is being betrayed. The two returned to the dormitory. The other two classmates in the dormitory have not gone to bed yet and are reading at night. Students who come here. If you dont seize the time and study hard, you may be surpassed by others every minute. Not everyone is Qin Chi. Learn it with ease. "Qi''an, I will be visiting your home during the next holiday." Ling Yuanhao decided on his own without even asking Qin Chi whether he would agree or not, "The pastries you brought are very delicious. I want to eat them after they are eaten. It''s a pity that my sister-in-law doesn''t like to give them to her. Look at the one in the courtyard next door. Every once in a while, someone brings food in. Thinking about you and me again, oh, that one is so sad. The guy lay down on the bed. Qin Chi''s mouth twitched. Sad? A little bit. But he wouldn''t admit it, "My family is in a poor and remote place and we don''t have that condition. What about you, the third son of the Hou family?" "Are you stabbing my heart?" Ling Yuanhao took advantage of the light and glanced sideways at Qin Chi. Qin Chi sneered: "Both each other." Ling Yuanhao suddenly turned over, flew to Qin Chi''s bed, and said excitedly: "Na na na, I don''t want to be welcomed by my family and I admit it, but you don''t want to be treated by your sister-in-law? What kind of secret do I know? Will I be silenced?" "roll!" Qin Chi kicked him over and said, "My wife is kind to me." Ling Yuanhao suddenly moved away. Just when he wanted to say something else. The other two classmates watched with amusement. One of them ridiculed: "You idiot Ling Er, you''re out of business! Are you going out to eat secretly again?" "It''s probably true. I seem to smell the aroma of roasted chicken." Another person held the scroll and leaned over Ling Yuanhao to smell it. Ling Yuanhao was so frightened that he said, "No, no, your nose must have smelled wrong. I would never steal a chicken." "Yes, yes, you never steal." "I agree with this. He just buys and sells by force." "Haha, Zi Shu described it brilliantly." "If you keep teasing me, I''m not done with you..." The more Ling Yuanhao refused to admit it, the louder they laughed. Until the superintendent passed by and knocked on the door. The four people in the dormitory immediately kept silent and pretended to be asleep. (End of chapter) Chapter 196 Liujia, Jianning Prefecture Chapter 196 The Liu Family of Jianning Mansion The wife of Huizhou magistrate Yang Lingyu''s surname was Liu, and she was born in the Liu family of Jianning. The news reached Song Jin''s ears the next day. Song Jin wished he could cut Yang Lingyu into pieces. This person was involved in all the misfortunes of the Song family in the past and present lives. However, at this time, she could not touch him because his backer, Mr. Yang Ge, was the reason. It is very difficult to uproot the Yang family and the Liu family, as well as the forces that collude with them. To use a metaphor, the Yang family is like a towering tree, so Song Jin at this time is like the grass on the roadside. With this weak ability, if you want to dig down a big tree, you can''t do it overnight. It took Song Jin several days to calm down. One day. Song Jin finished his work. When I was about to go home. Xiao Xi came, "Ms. Qin, my young lady wants to see you." "What do you want from me, sir?" Song Jin put down the cloth he was wiping his hands with. Xiao Xi cooed and said, "How do I know what the young lady is thinking? She is not as favored as Sister Xiao Huan." "Really? I think you are also very important to me. You know how important this pharmacy is to you. She has given it to you to manage." Song Jin''s words spoke to Xiao Xi''s heart. With a smile on her face, Xiao Xi led Song Jin to the study. Liu Jianfang was writing furiously in the study, with a slightly tired look on her eyebrows. When she saw Song Jin come in, she stopped writing. "Ms. Qin, do you want to come with me to the Imperial Hospital?" "this" Song Jin showed hesitation appropriately. After a while, he declined politely: "My parents-in-law asked me to come to Beijing to take care of my husband''s daily life. When he is not at home, I can take care of odd jobs. If..." Needless to say next. "I''m sorry, I have failed your Majesty." Song Jin said apologetically and with a sincere attitude. Liu Jianfang had expected it and was not disappointed. Women in the world regard their husbands as their top priority and take pride in being a good wife and mother. There are too few who can control their own destiny like men. Liu Jianfang said: "If you change your mind in the future, you can come find me again." "Thank you, sir." Song Jin bowed gratefully. Left Liu Mansion. On the way back, Song Jin also figured it out. Follow her to Tai Hospital? Then naturally he went to work for Liu Jianfang. She wanted to train her own manpower. Obviously, Liu Jianfang''s job at Tai Hospital was not so smooth. Time passed like this. The days were calm. Song Jin would prepare medicinal materials for Liu Jianfang for half of the month. When she came across some medicinal materials that had been prepared for a long time, Song Jin would take them home and cook them, and Liu Jianfang didn''t say anything about it. Unless he is a suspected enemy. It is also a blessing to meet such a host. Behind the scenes, Song Jin asked people to investigate the Yang clan. Not big shots like Mr. Cha Yangge. Because in this way, the characters may be discovered with a little investigation. Instead, he went to investigate Mr. Yang Ges relatives. As long as anyone has made a mistake, evidence will be collected, no matter how big or small. Qin Chi came back from vacation again. When he learned about Song Jin''s decision, he said to Old Li, "Uncle Li, do as Madam ordered. The Thousand Miles of Embankment was destroyed in the ant nest. It has been collected. Maybe it can be used in the future." " Lao Litou said yes. Among the Yang clan, there were not many people who used their power to bully others. This is not unique to Yang. Those big and powerful families will inevitably have a few mouse droppings. Song Jin came to the study and happened to hear Qin Chi''s instructions to old man Li, and knocked on the door with a smile. The study door is not closed. The knock on the door was purely a reminder. Qin Chi looked up at Song Jin, then at the soup bowl in her hand, "Is the lady here?" "I made some soup to replenish your health." Song Jin came in with a soup bowl. Old Li Tou retreated wisely. Qin Chi took the soup bowl and put it on the table next to him. He took Song Jin''s hand and sat down together. "There is information from the Liu family." Pulled out a booklet from the desk. Qin Chi handed it to Song Jin to read, "This is just superficial news. If you want to dig deeper, it will take some time. News will come one after another in the future." What comes this time is only the information about Jianning Liu Jiaming. Song Jin opened it and read it again. The Liu family in Jianning has been a wealthy businessman for generations, and their accumulated wealth should be very huge, but no one dares to take any ideas from the Liu family. It is said that the Liu family has a big backer. In addition, the Liu family builds bridges and roads every year, builds temples, regularly donates alms and repairs charity halls, etc. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! It is a well-known charity house in Jianning Prefecture. To sum it up in one sentence, the Liu family is very powerful in Jianning Mansion. It''s almost like a single family. Other forces will act based on the Liu family''s eyes. Song Jin read the information about the Liu family, and then went to see the eldest son of the Liu family. "Liu Ji, named Hongmao, is nineteen years old. Is he famous for being a civil servant?" Song Jin recalled his past life. I always feel that this name is somewhat familiar. I didn''t think about it for a while. The status of merchants in this dynasty was gradually improving, and they could also participate in the imperial examination. Liu Ji was able to obtain the title of Juren at the age of nineteen, and was said to be a young talent. Qin Chi said: "Liu Ji also participated in the February examination, but failed. At that time, he settled in the Liu family''s annex." This also proves that Liu Ji and the Liu family are indeed related. Song Jin closed the book, "Is he ugly? Otherwise, how could Liu Jianfang be dissatisfied with him?" "No, on the contrary, he is very good-looking. This person is known locally as a romantic and talented man, and he often goes to brothels and elegant houses." There were many scholars like Liu Ji in this dynasty. Therefore he is not conspicuous. Qin Chi thought for a moment and then said: "Liu Jianfang doesn''t like him. His philandering is secondary, and probably he can''t satisfy Liu Jianfang''s ambition. My wife should know that she often goes in and out of the palace and sees many noble children. Compared with them, Liu Ji is too ordinary. "Are you saying that Liu Jianfang is greedy for power?" Song Jin suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Qin Chi. The surprise in his eyes was very obvious. During the days she had known Liu Jianfang, aside from those medical books and notes, she still admired Liu Jianfang''s handling of things, his skill and magnanimity. If you don''t stand on the opposite side. Song Jinhui would be happy to associate with Liu Jianfang. Qin Chi finished the soup and then gently put the soup bowl down. He performed the simple action, but it was really pleasing to the eye. "Madam, if she didn''t have ambition, she wouldn''t have accepted the position of herbal medicine warehouse." Being a female doctor has no real power. She manages a medicine warehouse as a woman. No one would believe her if she said she had no ambition. "Her job is a fat job." Qin Chi pointed out with a smile, "I''ve only been sitting on it for half a year, and I''m almost ready." Song Jin said nothing more. People have thousands of faces, and things have everything. She understands this. No more was said. Song Jin read the Liu family''s information again. In the end, it settled on the good deeds done by the Liu family. "The Liu family likes to build things, whether it''s roads or bridges, temples or Yangji Halls..." Song Jin has seen the good things done by the Liu family. Watching and muttering. "In addition to giving alms regularly every year. The rest is to build this or that." Hearing her muttering, Qin Chi was thoughtful. Chapter 197 Not one ten thousandth as good as the lady Chapter 197: Not as good as a lady "Don''t worry about these things for the time being. Let''s wait until the people below investigate clearly before thinking about it." Qin Chi grabbed the booklet in her hand, turned around and put it on the table, then took Song Jin''s hand and walked outside, "Tomorrow is the Qiao Qiao Festival, I will take you out to play." Song Jin really hadn''t thought about this. No wonder the neighbors have become lively these days, it turns out they are celebrating the holidays. "It''s the Qiqiao Festival, and it''s the Ghost Festival again." Song Jin followed Qin Chi''s footsteps and walked out, a little absent-minded as she left, "I wonder how the child is? Do you miss us?" There are letters from Huizhou every month. There are also some Huizhou specialties. Even if Song Jin knew, he still thought about the children, "Do you think the children will no longer remember their parents when we go back next time?" "Haha, how come?" Qin Chi thought that he must not remember. You must know that children at such a young age are very forgetful. But he said, "It is natural for children to be close to their parents. It will be fine if they go back to a different place." The next time I go back will probably be in two years. Qin Chi has decided to take part in the next provincial examination, so he will return to his hometown to register. The next step is to prepare to play tomorrow. There will be a temple fair during the Qiqiao Festival. The couple had discussed it last night and planned to go to the temple fair. There are many famous temples in the capital. Song Jin went out to chat with his neighbors for a while, and then decided to go to the Capital God''s Temple. The two put on new clothes and went out early. Qin Chi looked at his wife''s disfigured face, which could only be called a delicate face. He felt satisfied, but also a little dissatisfied. "It''s because I''m not strong enough that I let my wife cover up when she goes out." "My lord, what are you talking about?" Song Jin''s cheeks were slightly red, with a faint blush. Qin Chi took her little hand and got into the car. It was still Lao Li who was driving. Just when Qin Chi said it was time to set off. "Ouch! Madam Qin, wait!" Aunt Kang''s scream came from next door, and she ran over to stop the carriage. Song Jin opened the curtain and asked doubtfully: "Ms. Kang, you suddenly called me, is something wrong?" "It''s nothing serious. I just saw you going out and wanted to take a ride." Aunt Kang said cheerfully. When he said this, he never thought that Song Jin would refuse. In Aunt Kang''s hand, she was holding a little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old. The little girl lowered her head shyly. His face was so red that he didn''t dare to raise his head to look at the carriage. Song Jin looked at the two of them, "Are you two going? Aren''t you going with the rest of the family?" "We''ll go first, and then we''ll meet up at the temple. We''ve already agreed on a meeting place." Aunt Kang climbed onto the carriage unceremoniously. The little girl also came up. Just as Aunt Kang was pushing the little girl to enter the carriage. Old Li Tou stopped him, "Auntie, I still need to ask my young master for instructions." "Oh, I need to ask for permission." Aunt Kang looked at Song Jin expectantly and said, "Ms. Qin, is it okay? My daughter and I don''t want to walk. Even though the journey is not far, walking is also tiring. Auntie is getting old now." After saying that, he beat his legs exaggeratedly. Song Jin looked at Qin Chi. Qin Chi''s eyes were light, "Sit outside and don''t enter the car." He settled it with just one sentence. So Aunt Kang and her daughter sat outside, near the car curtain. Just because two more people were added temporarily. The heavy car curtain was rolled up. Sitting in the car like this, you can also see the situation in front of the street. Song Jin couldn''t help but glance at the little girl, "Aunt Kang, this is your little girl? She is very beautiful." "She is just a boring gourd. Usually at home, she can''t even fart for a long time. Aunt Kang gently pushed her little girl, "Qiao sister, why don''t you call someone soon?" "Qin, Mrs. Qin." This annoying sound was like the buzzing of mosquitoes. Kang Qiaomei quickly raised her head again, glanced at Qin Chi, blushed and whispered, "Qin Xiucai is good." "Hello, Qiao sister." Song Jin responded with a smile. Qin Chi only nodded in response. Lao Li glanced sideways at Kang Qiaomei. He waved his riding whip and set off. He would take another look, wondering why this girl''s little face was so red, "I said to Mrs. Kang, my daughter can''t be kept at home for a long time. She has to be brought out to learn from time to time. Otherwise, look at your daughter''s little face. , almost catching up with the burning clouds in the sky." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Exactly! I just want to take her out to see the world today. So that she doesn''t have to sit at home every day and get sick." Aunt Kang immediately agreed. Song Jin smiled and said, "My aunt has a cheerful temperament. I am also surprised that I raised a shy girl who is completely opposite to my aunt''s temperament." "That''s right, I just want to change her temperament. Otherwise, when she gets married, she will be manipulated by her husband''s family. How will she live her life then?" Aunt Kang talked about her daughter''s marriage, which seemed to start a conversation, and she was very eloquent. After talking about the children at home, she talked about the grand events of the temple fair in the past. Song Jin and Lao Li Tou occasionally exchanged words. Qin Chi didn''t speak the whole time. In fact, he was quite depressed. The rare time alone with his wife was actually ruined by his neighbor. She was also a talkative lady and kept talking all the way, which made his ears hurt. Unfortunately, he couldn''t say anything. Close to the Capital City God Temple. Old Li Tou''s carriage stopped. Song Jin and others got out of the car. Aunt Kang expressed her gratitude to Song Jin, then took her little girl''s hand and left happily. "I finally left." Qin Chi stroked his forehead helplessly. "Pfft!" Song Jin couldn''t help laughing. Qin Chi looked at her with a condemning look, "Are you still laughing? Still laughing?" It was just a slight smile. Seeing him like this again, Song Jin couldn''t help but laugh a little louder, "It''s hard work for my father-in-law today." "It''s good that you know." Qin Chi naturally took Song Jin''s left hand and said, "There are many people here, so don''t be scattered." Song Jin nodded in response. Then look at the lively place ahead. The capital is a prosperous place, and today is a festival. There are crowds of people in front of the Capital City God Temple, and a festive atmosphere fills the air. Red lanterns are hung high and colorful ribbons are flying. The temple is even more solemn and mysterious. Song Jin was led by Qin Chi and quickly blended into the crowd, seeing some girls along the way. Wearing colorful clothes, holding embroidered fans, standing or sitting, smiling and charming, they are like flowers surrounded by flowers, competing to show their skill and wisdom. This is the tradition of Qiqiao Festival, and it is also a festival for women. Song Jin was dazzled along the way, "There are so many beautiful girls in the capital." Not one ten thousandth as good as the lady. Qin Chi stared down at his wife beside him with gentle eyebrows. Unfortunately, his wife was fascinated by the flowers and just looked around without even looking at him. Song Jin is usually steady. Today she is a little more lively, more like a woman of this age. This made his heart beat a little faster. The big hand holding her tightened subconsciously. Please vote! ~~ Chapter 198 Qiqiao Festival Temple Fair Chapter 198 Qiqiao Festival Temple Fair The two of them shuttled among the crowd. On both sides of the road, there are a dazzling array of temporary stalls, selling a variety of handicrafts, including paper-cuts, candy figures, knitted goods, etc., which attract the attention of passers-by. Children''s chasing and playing, adults'' shouting, one after another hawking, and laughter intertwined together to form a lively and prosperous scene. "The capital is more lively than at home, and there are more things for sale, many of which I have never seen before." After walking out, Song Jin felt much more relaxed. Qin Chi''s eyes were lingering, "If you like it, you can buy it." "Forget it, I''m not a child." The two stopped in front of the temple. Amid the scent of incense, devout believers clasped their hands and bowed their heads in prayer. Song Jin did not approach, just stood not far away and watched, "Ms. sir, I want to go to Jianning Mansion." These words were caught off guard! Qin Chi''s pupils shrank slightly. Just when he was looking for a reason to give up her idea, suddenly there was an exclamation from the distance: "Qin Qian? It''s really you!" Following the source of the sound, Song Jin looked back. There were three young men standing not far away. Among them was a young man in brocade clothes who ran towards them excitedly. Qin Chi''s expression remained unchanged and he introduced to Song Jin: "The one who called me is my classmate Ling Yuanhao, the third son of Ling Dinghou Mansion." The words just fell. Ling Yuanhao had already stood in front of them, "I asked you to come out with me, but you shouldn''t do it. I didn''t expect you to come secretly." Before Qin Chi could answer, he saw Song Jin again, his eyes fell on the hands they were holding, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked, "Is this sister-in-law?" Qin Chi said: "She is my wife." Ling Yuanhao bowed his hand to Song Jin. Song Jin also returned the favor. This time the other two people also came. After introducing each other, they were all classmates of Qin Chi, and the four of them lived in the same dormitory. One is Qiao Mingwu. The other one is named Ning Zishu. Both of them were in their early twenties, had a good reputation as a civil servant, had wives and children in their hometowns, and came from poor families. They both went to Beijing to study alone. We were traveling together as a couple. Now it became a party of five. As night falls, the lanterns are dazzling. Lanterns of different shapes are hung around the temple, casting soft light and shadow. Bundles of lights are like stars, echoing the Milky Way in the sky. Sitting at a roadside noodle stall. Ling Yuanhao looked at the passing pairs of men and women with envy, and saw one man and woman secretly exchanging tokens in their hands. He couldn''t help but said sourly: "You three are all married, but I am not married yet. Should I go to the temple to seek marriage?" "Ha, can you decide your marriage by yourself?" As soon as Qin Chi said these words. Ling Yuanhao was stunned, "I asked Qi''an, can you save some face for me?" "You earn all your face by yourself." Qin Chi picked up the fried eggs in his bowl and put them into Song Jin''s bowl. Qiao Mingwu snickered, "Yuanhao, go home and mention it to your mother, and I will make an engagement for you right away." "Don''t! I don''t like anything my mother mentioned." Ling Yuanhao thought of something and shuddered inexplicably, with a look of distance on his face, "I must marry a wife I like in the future." After saying that, he clasped his hands and said devoutly to the Capital City God''s Temple: "May the Weaver Girl and the City God grant me a love as eternal as the Milky Way in the sky." This made the other people laugh. Song Jin just wanted to say one thing, it''s great to be young. Recalling that before anything happened to her family, she had a similar longing to Ling Yuanhao. May the men and women in the world finally get married. This is nothing more than a good wish. After all, there are only a few truly happy marriages. "Yang Yingrong! Stop for me, girl!" A woman''s coquettish shout immediately brought Song Jin''s dazed thoughts back. Follow the sound. Yang Yingrong was seen walking in front, with a pretty girl pressing behind him. Yang Yingrong''s face was filled with impatience. Keep walking forward, past the noodle stall, and gradually farther away. The girl chased after her while calling people, attracting many people''s attention. "Whose girl is that?" someone asked gossiping. "It seems to be a cousin from the Yang family, her surname is Liu." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Why are you running after a man? Even if it''s the Qiao Qiao Festival today, you can''t lose your restraint." "You''re right. It''s better to run after a dude. There are many good men in the world, but I am the one." The young man holding a jade fan said bitterly. Ling Yuanhao sneered, "Don''t Zhou Kefu usually look in the mirror?" "Hey, who did I think it was? Isn''t this Ling Fool?" Mr. Yushan came over with a smile, and then glanced at Qin Chi and others with disdain, "I heard that you are supervising a poor student in Guozi. If you are willing to get engaged, it wont be a good thing. Snap! Ling Yuanhao put half a bowl of noodles on Zhou Kefu''s head, "Is my friend someone you can slander?" When Zhou Kefu was shocked and stunned. Ling Yuanhao''s anger was not extinguished. When someone handed him another bowl of noodles, he took it and flipped it upside down. "ah!" Zhou Kefu screamed and wiped the soup and noodles on his face, "Ling Yuanhao! I will fight with you!" He grabbed the noodles hanging on his head and threw them at Ling Yuanhao. He ignored him and rushed forward to fight for his life. Song Jin hurriedly pulled Qin Chi and stepped aside. At this time, Qin Chi''s original anger had been mostly extinguished when he saw Song Jin handing Ling Yuanhao the bowl of noodles. Ling Yuanhao and Zhou Kefu started fighting. In order to avoid contagion. Qiao Mingwu and Ning Zishu also stepped aside. The owner of the noodle stall was about to cry. He wanted to fight elsewhere. This would ruin his stall and business. Several customers left in the middle of eating without paying. Just at this time. Song Jin took out a piece of silver and stuffed it into the hand of the noodle stall owner, "I''m sorry, I''ve offended you, this is compensation." "Many, thank you madam." The noodle stall owner burst into tears of joy and stepped aside with gratitude. Song Jin''s move. Not only Qin Chi was surprised. The other two people were also surprised. Originally, they didn''t pay much attention to Qin Chi''s wife. On the contrary, they felt that she was not worthy of Qin Chi. After all, Qin Chi was both talented and beautiful. The handsome Song Jin, standing next to Qin Chi, seemed incompatible. I didn''t expect that her appearance was average, but her behavior was very generous. In other words, she had a good character. Because at this time, no one will care about the owner of the noodle stall. Song Jin saw Ling Yuanhao suppressing Zhou Kefu and beating him. "I''ll let you have a bad mouth, I''ll let you have a bad mouth!" While beating people, Ling Yuanhao muttered to himself, "How dare you arrange my affairs? Didn''t I get disabled before or something like that? I have become so polite in the past two years that you have forgotten that I was once a tyrant in the capital." s glorious past. From these words. Song Jin probably understood this person''s character. In short, it is no brainer to get along with him. It is no wonder that Qin Chi would associate with him. Smart people like friends who are simple-minded. Chapter 199 Farce at the temple fair Chapter 199 Farce at the Temple Fair Ling Yuanhao suppressed him and beat him. The followers who were in the Zhou family came to save the savior, and he beat them together with the followers. "Master Ling has practiced martial arts?" Song Jin asked in surprise. Qin Chi looked forward and said softly: "Ling Yuanhao was born in a general family. His father was General Ling. He was originally a martial arts prodigy, but for some reason he was forced to study by his family, including his eldest brother and second brother." He said that he should give up martial arts and embrace literature. But the whole family is also half-skilled in reading. The only one with some talent, Ling Yuanhao, was only allowed to enter the Imperial Academy under the protection of his parents. Song Jin couldn''t resist conspiracy theories. Things in this court have never been simple. Qin Chi did not say that General Ling was his maternal ancestor, which was why he was feared by the man in the palace. It was the attitude of Ling Dinghou Mansion to let his son abandon martial arts and follow literature. In other words, General Ling''s move showed that his military power would not be passed on to his son in the future, so as to reassure the emperor. It''s hard for Qin Chi to talk about these things. Especially when people are outside at this time. "Ling Yuanhao, just teach him a lesson. Don''t beat people to death." Qin Chi reminded him. Ling Yuanhao really stopped, "Bah! The man named Zhou also said that Yang Yingrong is a playboy, and he is not a good person either." "Exactly!" Yang Yingrong suddenly spoke out in the crowd, "I am a dandy. Please don''t compare me with Zhou. I am at best the mud in the river, but he is the mud in the stinking ditch and cannot mix together." "Haha, isn''t it all mud?" Someone started cheering. "This mud is also divided into good and bad." Yang Yingrong quickly opened the folding fan, fanned himself gracefully, and said with a little evil smile: "It''s like your mother is a mother, your aunt is also a mother, and your wet nurse is also a mother. Can this be considered a mother?" "Pfft, hahahaha..." "It doesn''t matter." Zhou Kefu was beaten unconscious and was quickly taken to the hospital by his entourage. Someone has to clean up this mess. Ling Yuanhao straightened his clothes. Seeing Yang Yingrong walking towards him, he subconsciously looked behind him and saw no girl from the Liu family, "Where''s that cousin of yours? Did you get rid of her?" "What a **** cousin, she''s not from my family. My maiden name is Gao." Yang Yingrong said with a look of disgust. Song Jin heard something. This reminds me of the Jianning Liu family. So Song Jin asked Qin Chi in a low voice: "Is that Miss Liu Liu Ji''s sister?" "Yes, sister." Qin Chi responded softly. The wife of Yang Lingyu, the prefect of Huizhou, was from the Liu family in Jianning. However, Yang Yingrong was not Yang Lingyu''s son. He was just called his cousin. It''s not wrong to say they are cousins, but there is a layer of separation between them. Song Jin, who was thinking about something, didn''t notice that Yang Yingrong''s eyes fell on her from time to time, and Qin Chi blocked her in front of her seemingly unintentionally. Is Yang Yingrong the kind of person who keeps things to himself? He immediately bypassed Qin Chi and stared directly at Song Jin. He asked with a slightly condescending attitude: "Hey! Do you have a brother? I met a poor man in Piaoxiang Tower before who looks very similar to you. picture." "Master Yang admitted the wrong person." Qin Chi turned around for Song Jin, but still stood in front of Song Jin, "My wife has just arrived in Beijing not long ago, and she has no brothers." Song Jin also pretended to be scared and hid next to Qin Chi. Ling Yuanhao patted Yang Yingrong on the shoulder and said, "Master Yang, your conversation skills are not good enough. You have to find the right person at least. That is my brother''s wife." "Go, get out of here." Yang Yingrong really didn''t have that idea, "I remember that person owed me a meal." "Is your Yang family so poor?" Ling Yuanhao looked shocked, "You will remember just one meal?" Both of them are out of tune. As we chatted, we got sidetracked. Qin Chi raised his hand and asked to go back. After saying goodbye to his classmates one by one, he pulled Song Jin away. Song Jin followed Qin Chi into the crowd. It''s still lively here at night. But Song Jin was not in the mood to watch at this time, and she vaguely noticed that Qin Chi seemed to be in a bad mood. Song Jin, who was one step behind him, realized that Qin Chi was wearing a blue gown, with wide cuffs fluttering in the wind. The clothes were neat and plain. Anyone who saw him would think he was a poor and elegant scholar. Coupled with her simple clothes. It fits the two people''s external origins very well. It''s just that Song Jin''s thoughts are a little far away at this moment, and his eyes fall on Qin Chi from time to time. The corners of his mouth droop slightly, and his deep eyes seem to be covered by heavy fog. It is not difficult to see that he is unhappy. Walked out of the crowd. Came to the carriage. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Old Li Tou was guarding there. As soon as he saw them, he jumped off the carriage shaft and took out the horse stool. The two got into the car one after another. Qin Chi said calmly, "Uncle Li, I''m back." "Okay." Uncle Li responded, led the carriage to the road, jumped onto the shaft, and whipped up his whip. The horse pulled the cart forward slowly. Song Jin glanced sideways at Qin Chi, "What''s wrong with my husband? He doesn''t seem happy?" "Nothing, just thinking about something." Qin Chi straightened his sleeves. Its still a matter of course. Are you thinking about something while straightening your sleeves? Song Jin looked at his movements of straightening his sleeves. It was already very smooth, but he still continued to do it, "If you have something to say, don''t hold it in your heart." After a pause, Song Jin added: "Of course, if it''s a secret, don''t tell it." Qin Chi felt even worse after hearing this for some reason, but he didn''t show it on his face. He still had the elegant scholar attitude, "By the way, how do you know Yang Yingrong? Do you still owe him a meal?" "Ah? Didn''t Uncle Li tell you?" Song Jin didn''t answer, but asked this question instead. Qin Chi straightened his back slightly, "Uncle Li didn''t mention it." "That''s quite unexpected. I thought he would tell you." Song Jin did not mean to complain or be sarcastic in his words. The main reason is that she knows her whereabouts and must be someone who can''t hide it from Qin Chi and him. So she readily told Qin Chi exactly what happened that day when she met Yang Yingrong at Piaoxiang Tower. "That''s a dude who was spoiled by his family. He doesn''t even speak in tune. If I hadn''t met him today, I would have almost forgotten about him." Song Jin didn''t take this matter to heart. If she hadn''t met him suddenly, she would never have thought of Yang Yingrong. Seeing this, Qin Chi''s lips curled up slightly. This mood inexplicably got better. As long as its not familiar, thats fine! "It''s really inexplicable that the person surnamed Yang seems to be very familiar with you even though you are not familiar with him. If you meet him in the future, walk around a little bit and don''t get entangled by him." Qin Chi warned Song Jin carefully. Song Jin was amused, "He and I will not have any intersection, so my husband can rest assured. At that time, I was dressing up as a man, and in Yang Yingrong''s eyes, I was also a man." Qin Chi thought the same thing. Soon I heard Song Jin say again: "Ms. sir, it''s the same thing. I want to go to Jianning Mansion." "Do you have to go?" Qin Chi clenched his five fingers into a fist, then slowly released them. Song Jin was determined, "I want to go. Rather than waiting for news in the capital, I want to go there." Chapter 200 parting Chapter 200 Farewell Qin Chi didn''t want Song Jin to take risks. But he knew in his heart that she had made up her mind. It started when she dared to kill people alone. He then knew that she was not as simple as she seemed. Someone was arranged to accompany Song Jin on his departure. Then Lao Huo, Qin Qi and Qin Ba will accompany them. Song Jin changed into men''s clothing. Four people travel on horseback. In front of the city gate. Towering city walls on a hot summer day. Under the wall, a few barely surviving weeds looked wilted in the scorching sun. Qin Chi was wearing a simple cloth, sweat dripping from his forehead down his cheeks, but he held Song Jin''s hand tightly. He looked at her with solemn and gentle eyes. "Madam, we''ll be apart for several months, why don''t you give me something?" Qin Chi asked intently. Song Jin wanted to say that he didnt have any good things with him when traveling. But when I met his eyes... She accidentally pulled off the sachet from her waist, "I put some soothing and mosquito repellent medicine in it and gave it to my husband." Qin Chi reached out and took it, "It''s been so long since we''ve been married, but it''s not easy to finally receive an embroidery made by my wife." Song Jin''s cheeks felt slightly hot. It''s definitely not because of the hot weather. Qin Chi put the sachet into his sleeve pocket and raised his arm slightly, as if he wanted to hug her, but in the end he continued to hold it by his side and only touched her lightly. He then said nonchalantly: "We were about to separate, but I couldn''t bear to see you go. Madam, tell me, what should I do?" "Oh, it''s not like we haven''t been separated before." Song Jin only believed Qin Chi''s reluctance to give up, "You didn''t mention the study tour before. Even now that you are going to the Imperial College, we don''t have much time to see each other." Qin Chi was inexplicably heartbroken. Feelings of separation flooded into her heart, didn''t she have any nostalgia and reluctance? Song Jin turned around and jumped onto the horse''s back heroically, with a few strands of black hair blowing away in the wind. Holding the reins in hand, eyes steady. Gently clamping the horse''s belly, the good horse immediately stepped forward. Walked several feet away. Song Jin looked back and waved boldly to Qin Chi, and then lightly tapped the horse''s buttocks with the whip. The horse neighed. Four hooves stepped on the dirt road, raising dust and smoke as fine as mist. "Sir, do you want to go back?" Old Li Tou led the carriage to remind Qin Chi. Qin Chi looked at Song Jin who was gradually going away, took out the sachet from his sleeve pocket, put it to his nose and smelled it, "Uncle Li, she just looked back at me." Old Li was confused, "What do you want to say, Master?" I dont understand what the young master means. Qin Chi glanced at him, got on the car without saying a word, and got into the compartment. Old Li Tou put away the horse stool. Pulling the carriage, he turned around and headed back to the city. After leaving Beijing, Song Jin, Qin Chi and others only told the public that she had something to do and would go back to Huizhou for a while, and the Liu Mansion also arranged for someone to go and talk. Song Jin chose to ride a horse. Because the journey is long, riding a horse would be faster, and the waterway would occasionally be used along the way. Lao Huo will lead them all. The place to stay at night is usually at Shun''an Trading Company, and the same is true for supplies. Qin Chi gave Song Jin a token. As long as you hold the token, you can withdraw money at Shun An Commercial Bank or a store under the name of Shun An Commercial Bank. It''s been a smooth ride all the way. This made Lao Huo, Qin Qi and Qin Ba look at each other with admiration. You must know that Song Jin is different from them. They have been trained since childhood to be able to keep on traveling for so many days. However, Song Jin relied entirely on his tenacity to support himself. It took more than half a month to finally step into the territory of Jianning Mansion. Jianning Prefecture governs seven counties. The capital city is in Jianzhou, which is Jian''an County. Song Jin and others first arrived in Pucheng County, then crossed the entire Pucheng County to Jianyang City, and then transferred to Jian''an. The Liu family is in Jian''an Fucheng. By the time Song Jin arrived in Jianning Fucheng, it was already early August. Jianzhou in early August is the golden autumn season, with warm sunshine and fragrant osmanthus. The streets in the county are lined with shops, and the roads paved with bluestones are clean and tidy. The market is bustling with hawking sounds, and vendors display a wide variety of goods, from bright cloth to exquisite porcelain, from fresh fruits and vegetables to sweet pastries. From time to time, there are also sellers carrying burdens passing by. The clear and sweet sound of the gong adds a bit of vitality to this busy market. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin was always on his way. Only when I came here did I realize how prosperous the place is. Old Huo clicked his tongue and said, "Compared to the capital, there are no more concessions here. No, no, there are more fresh things. Look at that fruit, I''ve never seen it before." "Ha, Uncle Huo, there are always a lot of fruits in the south, and I haven''t seen you eating less in Huizhou." Qin Ba had been in Huizhou before and rarely followed Song Jin out. He was very happy with this errand. On the contrary, Qin Qi remained silent, more reserved than the two of them. Song Jin led the horse and walked on the street, "As long as there are no floods in the south, it has always been rich in products, especially when the imperial court did not ban the sea." Passing by a wide place. A stage caught Song Jin''s attention. There were many people watching in the audience. On the stage, Tsing Yi, dressed in costume, was performing hard, singing high-pitched and melodious, which attracted applause from the audience. Vendors around took the opportunity to sell various snacks. A child even came to Song Jin and said, "Brother, do you want to buy something to eat?" "No, thank you." Song Jin shook his head and declined. They found Shun''an Trading Company in Jianzhou and showed their tokens. The shopkeeper here immediately arranged accommodation for them, and also had people boil hot water and prepare meals. Song Jin took a bath comfortably. Put on clean clothes. However, after eating, Song Jin did not go out again, but rested in the side room. Qin Qi and Qin Ba stayed outside. Song Jin spoke up, "You two should also rest and recuperate your energy. I won''t go out tonight." The two looked at each other. In the end, we chose to rest separately, with one staying awake for the first half of the night and the other for the second half of the night. Lao Huo went to drink and chat with shopkeeper Ao. If a man wants to get acquainted quickly, just have a drink together. Especially Lao Huo, don''t look at him as a rough guy. In fact, he is a well-rounded person who can communicate with strangers with ease. Song Jin didn''t think about anything that night. Go to bed early and rest. It''s not that she doesn''t want to show off, but she knows that her body may have reached its limit, and almost every part of her body is screaming for fatigue. Have a comfortable sleep until the next day. The morning sun has just emerged. Song Jin swept away yesterday''s tiredness, stood up and dressed neatly, then combed her hair into a man''s bun, and smoothed her face for a while to hide her charming appearance. Breakfast was brought from the kitchen. Song Jin had a simple meal. Lao Huo and shopkeeper Ao came over. Shopkeeper Ao also had a wooden box in his hand, which he placed in front of Song Jin, "Mr. Song, these are the results of our investigation in the past month. Please take a look." "Thank you for your hard work. Let''s sit down and have a cup of tea." Song Jin motioned to Lao Huo to greet him. She opened the wooden box, took out the files inside, and read them from beginning to end. Chapter 201 Arrive at Jianning Mansion Chapter 201 Arriving at Jianning Mansion The Liu family is indeed very powerful in Jianning. It is not an exaggeration to call him the richest man in Jianning. The most prosperous street in Fucheng, 90% of the shops in it belong to the Liu family. The Liu family can be said to cover the sky with one hand in Jianning Mansion. Here is where the mountains are really high and the emperor is far away. The people here dare to scold the emperor and the dog officials in private, but they dare not scold the Liu family. Song Jin''s eyes fell on one of them. At the end of last year, Liu Ji asked his followers to collect medical books, which were supposed to be sent to his fiance in the capital. Song Jin raised his eyes and looked at Shopkeeper Ao, "This news shouldn''t be difficult to investigate. Why wasn''t it sent to the capital before?" "It was a little late to find out." Shopkeeper Ao secretly wiped his hands with cold sweat. Mr. Song obviously looked young and didn''t do much, but he gave the impression that he was not easy to deal with. Shopkeeper Ao glanced at Lao Huo again. This guy is following the young master. If he can come with Mr. Song this time, his status must be high. Shopkeeper Ao''s attitude became more and more respectful. Song Jin finally gave the order, "Let me ask the attendant who collected medical books for Liu Ji to come out. I have some things that I want to ask personally, and I have to keep a low profile as much as possible. It is best to leave no trace." "My subordinates will do it now." Shopkeeper Ao quickly retreated. I was afraid that Song Jin would catch on to their incompetence in doing things. Song Jin looked up at Shopkeeper Ao''s back, "What is he doing? Running so fast?" "I don''t have the ability, so I feel guilty." Lao Huo picked up the tea and drank it leisurely, "I had a drink with him last night and talked a lot. I did know some things." "Uncle Huo, tell me." "In the area of ??Jianning Mansion, the Liu family''s power is suppressing it, and the development of Shun''an Commercial Bank can only be said to be average. Of course, it is all due to the Liu family''s great power, but it is just a shirk of responsibility. There is also the problem of Lao Ao''s lack of ability. " Lao Huo doesn''t just drink. While drinking, I would also make common sense while chatting, and then I would take advantage of getting the other person drunk to ask more questions and confirm them by the way. Did Shopkeeper Ao betray his master? Fortunately for Shopkeeper Ao, he did not betray. Otherwise, the body would have been buried last night. Song Jin asked again: "Then how does Shun''an make money here?" "By purchasing local specialties and transporting them to other prefectures for sale, we can earn a price difference, but it is difficult to bring things from other places to Jianning to sell. Unless we can find scarce goods, we can rest on our laurels now." Seeing Song Jin''s interest, Lao Huo began to scold Shopkeeper Ao. If you rely on purchasing local specialties. If you can really receive a large number, you can make a lot of money. For example, Jianning Tongxin Bailian has a white, round and plump appearance. It is easy to cook and does not fall apart after being cooked for a long time. It is sweet, delicate and delicious. It is known as the "best lotus". It has been listed as a tribute treasure in the past dynasties. It was called " Gonglian". In addition, there are huanghuali, Xiyuan bamboo shoots, kiwi fruit, etc., which can be easily sold to other state capitals. The problem is that most of the things produced by the common people are monopolized by the Liu family. Shopkeeper Ao could only barely drink the soup. Previously, the young master asked him to buy land from Zhuangzi and plant it himself, but after several years, he still has no results. No wonder Lao Huo said that Shopkeeper Ao''s abilities were average. After Song Jin heard about it, he also felt that his ability was not very good. In this land of plenty, everyone was like this. If Song Jin were to run it... "Does the Liu family intend to suppress outside businesses?" Song Jin suddenly thought of this question. Generally speaking, local businessmen are not happy to have outsiders compete with them for business. If Shun''an Trading Company comes here, it will inevitably be squeezed out. The reason why Shun''an Trading Company can successfully establish itself is that it has a rich supply of goods and its main business is the Four Treasures of the Study. Except for the four treasures, the profit is not high after deducting the transportation costs. Lao Huo chatted with Song Jin about Shun''an''s business. Hearing her speak clearly and eloquently, as if she had several brushes, made him look at her in surprise. In the past, Lao Huo had no chance to deal with Song Jin. That is to say, Qin Chi knew that Lao Huo had traveled all over the country and had powerful martial arts, so he asked him to come to Jianning with Song Jin. Shopkeeper Ao is already contacting his subordinates. At least do it beautifully. Otherwise, he suspected that the young master would be replaced. The next evening. Song Jin had just finished dinner. Shopkeeper Ao came to invite her personally and said that the matter had been settled. Song Jin immediately put down his bowls and chopsticks, went to the side room, changed into a boy''s attire, and went out. This time Song Jin didn''t want to attract attention, so she pretended to be shopkeeper Ao''s boy, and then let the person who protected her change from bright to dark. On the surface, she followed Shopkeeper Ao to meet the target alone... Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Brothel? ! When he saw Song Jin strutting around, he followed Shopkeeper Ao into the brothel. The eyelids of Lao Huo who followed him, including Qin Qi and Qin Ba, were twitching. Madam came to Jianning, and within two days she was visiting a brothel! If the young master knew? Can the three of them get along better? Lao Huo glared angrily at Shopkeeper Ao who was not far away, "This piece of shit, it''s not a good choice, you have to choose this place!" Qin Ba nodded repeatedly, "You bastard, it''s really hurting us." Qin Qi looked cold. Everyone could see that she was angry. The person who was most unjustly accused was probably Shopkeeper Ao. Because among several people, he was the only one who didn''t know whether Song Jin was a woman or a mistress. Shopkeeper Ao really thought that Song Jin was a man, but he was rather slender and not very tall, and he still looked like a half-grown boy. It can only be said that Song Jin disguised himself well. As soon as night falls, the neon lights begin to shine. Song Jin stepped into the brothel and looked at the lobby. With the hustle and bustle of singing and dancing, the ladies dressed in gauze and embroidered thin blouses teased the guests with their laughter like pearls falling on a jade plate. Shopkeeper Ao continued to walk inside. Song Jin here is really fragrant. The scent of powder hit her nose, so she could only cover her nose with her sleeve, lowered her head slightly and followed behind Shopkeeper Ao. At this time, he was transferred to the hospital. The lanterns are hung high, and the light and shadow are dancing, reflecting the intricate attics and winding corridors. The melodious sound of the piano is accompanied by the lingering sounds of womens laughter and whispers. Song Jin could vaguely see scenes of revelry and wealth through the lightly opened door cracks and screen windows. Came to a private room. Shopkeeper Ao said enthusiastically to a tall and thin man in his twenties: "Oh, this is Brother Liu. I thought Boss Feng only invited me here, but I didn''t expect to invite you. I heard magpies calling when I went out before. , It should be here. Under the cover of shopkeeper Ao. Song Jin followed him in and almost no one noticed. The two exchanged pleasantries. Shopkeeper Ao said, "I''m here to offer a toast to Brother Liu." After saying that, he motioned to Song Jin to pour wine for him. This kind of thing was originally done by the girls in the brothel. The girls who couldn''t bear to come in were greeted, smiled, turned around and pretended not to notice. Song Jin lowered his head to pick up the wine bottle. Shopkeeper Ao kept talking to Brother Liu, attracting his attention. Let Song Jin take advantage of the opportunity of pouring wine to give Liu Jianfang the medicine he used last time. Chapter 202 brothel Chapter 202 Brothel Song Jin''s action of administering the medicine was very secretive. No one knew except Shopkeeper Ao who cooperated with her to cover up. As soon as shopkeeper Ao saw the wine was poured, he immediately picked it up and toasted to the Liu family''s entourage. The other party raised his glass and drank happily. Obviously, he likes this feeling of being sought after. In the Liu family, he is like a chicken and a dog, and even as a servant, he can act like a master outside. Especially for a confidant like Liu Er, who was given the master''s surname and was still highly used by the master. Others were afraid of him, not because of himself, but because of the Liu family behind him, and because he could speak in front of the master. Some small businessmen and hawkers. If someone like this slanders or spreads a few rumors in the Liu family, it may be a disaster. Wait for Liu Er to drink the spiked wine. Shopkeeper Ao toasted him a few more times. After chatting for half a cup of tea, the boss surnamed Fan was very drunk and was helped down by the two sisters. The other one sitting next to Liu Er was also dismissed by shopkeeper Ao. "I want to have a few drinks with Brother Liu in private, you go down first." After Shopkeeper Ao finished speaking, he rewarded the girl with a piece of silver. The girl giggled, accepted the reward, and gave Shopkeeper Ao a wink before leaving. Song Jin had rarely seen Meng Lang behave like this in his two lifetimes. There were only three people left in the private room. Liu Er''s eyes began to blur, and he giggled, drool flowed from the corner of his mouth, and murmured: "Beauty... Hehe, beauty..." The medicine given by Song Jin can cause hallucinations. The specific illusion depends on the individual. Song Jin asked shopkeeper Ao to ask, "Ask him where he got last year''s medical book." Shopkeeper Ao nodded and leaned into Liu Er''s ear, "Liu Er, who gave you the medical book you found for the young master last year?" Seeing no reaction from the other party. Shopkeeper Ao repeated this several times under Song Jin''s instructions. Liu Er didn''t answer the question, so shopkeeper Ao kept asking. "Give it to everyone." Liu Er finally responded. Shopkeeper Ao asked: "Who is Gan Da?" "A dog that wants to curry favor with my young master..." Liu Er answered the question inappropriately. Song Jin couldn''t help but asked: "What''s Gan Da''s name?" "Gan Jiabao." Liu Er deserved to be happy this time. Song Jin asked again: "Where does his family live?" "On board..." Just when Song Jin still wanted to ask. "Bang!" The door was suddenly kicked open. Song Jin glanced at a handsome man outside the door, and immediately retreated behind Liu Er, lowering his head as if humble. Shopkeeper Ao also reacted quickly. He picked up the wine glass and pretended to be drunk, and even went up and hugged Liu Er. Er''s shoulders and pushed him down onto the table. "drink!" "Let''s keep drinking!" "Drink! Beauty..." Liu Er responded. People from outside stepped in. A young man in rich clothes walked in with a fan in his hand, "Liu Er?! I''m here, young master. I heard that you are enjoying yourself here. I don''t know whether it''s true or not, so I came here to have a look." Liu Ji has a tall and straight figure, wearing a brocade robe that shows his aura of wealth. The jade pendant around his waist sways gently with his steps, making a pleasant tinkling sound. His eyebrows are like swords, straight into his temples. The curve of the corners of his lips held an elusive hint of arrogance. That is disdain for all worldly things, and also confidence in one''s own talent. Song Jin knew at just one glance that this was a young man who had been praised by others since he was a child and had a smooth life. Liu Er''s current state is almost as if he is drunk. Shopkeeper Ao also drank a few glasses of wine earlier and happened to be pretending to be drunk. "You, who are you?" Shopkeeper Ao looked like a drunkard and asked with a smile, "Are you here to drink with us? Come here, come here and have a drink!" Liu Er was pressed by shopkeeper Ao. I''ve been involved in several cases. Liu Ji was followed by several younger brothers. "Hey, I thought he dared to invite some girls to serve him, but he only came to the brothel to drink?" One of the young men said as if he was curious. The others were not interested either. Some people were quite sorry that they didn''t see Liu Ji make a fool of himself. Its even worse for servants and masters alike to come to a brothel to play with women. Liu Ji''s eyes flashed, "Let''s go! It''s boring, let''s continue drinking. Anyang, have someone send Liu Er back." After saying that, he called his friends and left. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Let the entourage take Liu Er back. Song Jin helped shopkeeper Ao out of the brothel. Qin Ba found a carriage waiting outside, helped him into the carriage and left. "You didn''t expect it to come out like this?" Shopkeeper Ao stopped pretending after entering the carriage, and said with lingering fear: "I thought I was going to get into trouble this time." "Why did you choose a brothel?" Song Jin didn''t say anything, Qin Qi asked coldly. Shopkeeper Ao didn''t think much and said, "It''s the place Lao Fan chose. That Liu Er is lustful, so it''s easier to make an appointment this way." That old fan is also one of theirs. He opened a grocery store in the city, but he didn''t appear to be from Shun''an. Song Jin didn''t realize that something was wrong in the atmosphere, and was wondering what "on the boat" meant, "Does Shopkeeper Ao know Gan Jiabao? And where on the boat...is that?" "Mr. Song, this Gan Jiabao is probably a Baishuilang, which is what outsiders call a Danmin, and the government calls him a Shuhu." Shopkeeper Ao said that he would have someone secretly investigate when he returns. Dan people, also known as Danjia, Danjia, boat households, and Lianjia boat people, are floating residents along the coast. They make boats their home and make a living by farming the sea for generations. They do not buy property on land. Shopkeeper Ao added: "There are not many Dan people in Jianning. They only go back and forth to a few places. If they are from Fuzhou, it will be troublesome. Fuzhou is close to Jianning and close to the sea. There have always been many Dan people, so we can only check them by name. , is undoubtedly a needle in a haystack. "Let''s start with the Dan people who have contact with the Liu family," Song Jin reminded. Shopkeeper Ao suddenly realized, "I''ll ask them to check it out when I get back." Wait until you return to your residence at the trading house. Shopkeeper Ao belatedly realized that the eyes of the three people were wrong. As if he wanted to kill him. Looking back, I didn''t do anything outrageous today. "Brother Huo, did I do anything wrong today?" Shopkeeper Ao couldn''t help but ask in a low voice when he left. Lao Huo didn''t look good on him, "You''re right, I was wrong. I didn''t warn you in advance. It''s just a place like a brothel. Don''t take Mr. Song there next time, lest the master skin you." Shopkeeper Ao left in a daze. I didn''t think about it, I just thought that going to a brothel was a bad thing? Forget it, lets check Gan Jiabao first. If he fails to do things well again, Shopkeeper Ao will feel that he is really going to die. Song Jinqia waited for Shopkeeper Ao to leave, then asked: "What are you doing, why are you looking down on him? Just because I went to a brothel?" It was just a small thing, but the three of them felt like the sky was falling. Lao Huo smiled dryly. Qin Qi and Qin Ba looked at each other. Madam ran to the brothel, how could she be more calm than them? When they go back, the young master will definitely know about it first. Strictly speaking, they were derelict in their duty by not stopping Madam from taking risks. Chapter 203 Visit Songjiazhuang Chapter 203 Visiting Songjiazhuang Qin Qi explained the matter clearly to Song Jin. If nothing happened to Song Jin, they would not be derelict in their duties, but their responsibilities were not that big. If something happened, they would have to die to apologize. Song Jin took the words into his heart. I lay in bed at night and start reflecting. The subordinates raised by the noble family of Tianhuang have strict rules. Usually if something happens to the master, if the protection is not good, it will be an unforgivable crime. In his previous life, Song Jin was just an Huizhou merchant, and he had never been in contact with a truly powerful family. At least if his subordinates were incompetent, Song Jin would at best abandon them instead of directly taking human lives. Even in his previous life, Song Jin did not treat human lives as trivial matters. . This made Song Jin act cautiously, and would not put himself in danger unless necessary. Get up the next day. Song Jin asked people to inquire about the Song family in Jianning Mansion. Shopkeeper Ao handed the information to Song Jin within a long time. A branch of the Song family has been operating in Fucheng for several generations, and has long been considered a local. A family can get along better here than Shun''an Trading Company. There is a Songjiazhuang outside the city. There are hundreds of families there with the surname Song. It is a well-known and wealthy village in eight towns and is rich in white lotus. There is also a large hilltop in the clan that is full of huanghuali trees. The family can live well with this income every year. It''s not that there were no merchants who wanted to lower the price. It was the Song family who found a way to sell it themselves and made more money. In fact, the Song family in Huizhou had people take it away and promised not to sell it cheaply. If If someone lowers the price, he will keep it first. Huizhou will keep it all. It is with this confidence that Songjiazhuang develops better and better. Something happened to the Song family in Huizhou, and it didn''t have much impact here. Tongxin Bailian and Huanghuali were always in short supply. If you have goods in hand, others are asking for help from Songjiazhuang, not Songjiazhuang. Gan Jiabao could not be found out for a while. Song Jin thought for a while and decided to meet the Song clan members here first, and then formally wrote a greeting note. Finally, the Song clan seal was stamped. Song Jin asked Qin Ba to deliver the letter. Qin Ba set out after noon and came back in the evening with a reply. The autographed letter from the head of the Jianning Song clan expressed his sincere words that he would sweep the couch to welcome him and the whole clan would be waiting for him. There were no unnecessary words between the lines, but Song Jin''s throat was choked and her eyes were red. In her previous life, she had encountered too many glares and cold and warm feelings. Song Jin seemed gentle and gentle, but in fact she was a bit indifferent to people. She encountered such kindness very rarely. However, Song Jin would not go to see them with great fanfare, so the appointment to visit was after dark. Song Jin still dressed up as a man, but his face was not overly modified, only three points of it was covered up. I prepared a generous gift and went to Songjiazhuang. The meeting place was the old clan leader''s home. At this time, the room was full of people, most of whom were members of the clan who could talk. Although the old patriarch has white hair, he is also a energetic old man. When he saw Song Jin appear, his eyes were bright and he asked, "Is he really from this family?" Song Jin performed the junior salute in a decent manner and said warmly: "It is the Huizhou Song family, junior Song Jin, and my father Song Kuan. I have met the old patriarch and all the elders." "Okay, okay, okay!" The old patriarch stepped forward with a cane and said with slightly moist eyes: "Thank you for your hard work, my child. No matter what time, Songjiazhuang will be your backing and your home." In fact, something happened to the Song family in Huizhou. They sent people to inquire, but all they heard were rumors from outside. No matter how much they inquired, they couldn''t find out. Later, they wrote to Song Huaiwang of Shuntian Prefecture and learned that the problem was serious. Maybe the person who inquired was lucky. Nothing unexpected happened, An Ran came back. All direct descendants of the Song family in Huizhou disappeared. The appearance of Song Jin is undoubtedly a ray of hope. I met all the uncles one by one and divided the car''s gifts among them. This time I came with a big fat pig that had been killed, and there were several other gifts, so I was definitely able to get them. We met once and chatted for a while. The rest of the clan went out. The old patriarch was left to talk to Song Jin privately, "Are the others okay?" "You ask this because you don''t know the details yet. Please allow me to explain it to you in detail." Song Jin had more respect for this old man when he spoke, so he basically told the truth. There were only some things that he couldn''t say, and he just mentioned them in one sentence. "What a disaster!" When the old patriarch heard this, his eyes were full of sorrow and anger, "Those beasts! If you catch a good person, it will bring disaster! They will definitely die a bad death." Song Jin''s eyes were red, "I don''t know where the clan members were imprisoned. Based on the clues, I found Jianning Mansion." "Is there anything we can do to help?" the old patriarch asked eagerly. Song Jin shook his head, "It''s too dangerous. I don''t want to drag down Songjiazhuang. I believe that my father is not a rigid person. If nothing happens, he should be alive and waiting for me to save them." Seeing the old patriarch wipe away his tears. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin said half-comfortingly: "According to the investigation data, it is speculated that the person behind the scenes came for the Song family''s ancestral craftsmanship, and spent so much effort to take away the entire family. I believe the other party will not be so Easily..." Killed! If you really want to kill the Song family, there is no need to take them all away. "Once upon a time, I had the idea that if I didn''t escape, I would be taken away with my family, so that even if I die, we can die together." Song Jin knew that to touch people''s hearts, he had to be sincere. I said a few more words unconsciously. The old patriarch sighed: "Silly boy, your father is determined to send you away. That is because he loves his child. There is a big reason, probably because of your appearance." The color, which covered up three points, still shocked the old patriarch who had lived for more than half his life. He had never seen a child who was prettier than Song Jin. The old patriarch continued: "Do you know that all those who have been imprisoned throughout the ages, as long as they have outstanding looks, will end up miserable regardless of gender. With your appearance, something might happen to you on the night you are imprisoned." That would be worse than disaster for the Song family. Because Song Kuan would definitely not just watch his daughter being raped. You don''t have to think about the result of resistance to know what it will be like. Song Jin had never thought about it before. Sure enough, people gain knowledge as they get older. Regardless of what the two parties really think about this meeting, each of them is satisfied in their hearts. When Song Jin left. The old patriarch called two clan members, "Song Xiaodong and Song Xiaocheng have some martial arts skills. Let them follow you. At least you will have someone to command you." Song Jin did not explicitly say that he wanted to take over the entire Song family. The old patriarch began to crowd in. Song Jin couldn''t refuse, so he could only take the person away. Watch the carriage leave. There was an extra person beside the old patriarch, "Father, why did you give Xiaodong and Xiaocheng...aren''t you afraid of bringing trouble to the family?" "Misfortune lies where blessings depend, and misfortune lies where blessings lie." The old patriarch is a wise old man. "I am old, and I just want to make a living for my clan members. Did the manager of the second room of the Liu family come to visit again two days ago?" "yes" "People are becoming more and more impatient." PS: For the top ten in the Red Sleeve Academy comment area, you can contact the author to receive a Mid-Autumn Festival gift. The deadline is at the end of the month. Chapter 204 Song brothers Chapter 204 Song Brothers Song Jin came back with two people. They are about seventeen or eighteen years old. Judging from their somewhat similar appearance, they are a pair of brothers. On the way back, Song Jin had already learned about the situation of the brothers. Their parents had an accident when they were young, and their grandparents also died young. They grew up with support from uncles and other families, and later learned martial arts from an old bodyguard. Not burdened by family, but also somewhat capable. Therefore, let the old patriarch choose. While you''re young, it''s time to go out and have a try. Shopkeeper Ao looked at her secretly and asked tentatively: "Are you the children of Songjiazhuang?" "Exactly, my name is Song Xiaodong." Song Xiaodong stood up and introduced himself, "I know you. You are the shopkeeper of Shun''an Trading Company. You came to Songjiazhuang last month." Shopkeeper Ao''s mouth twitched slightly. If you don''t mention this, it will make you more agreeable. Because the memory of going to Songjiazhuang is not pleasant. White lotus is harvested in seven months. In August, huanghuali matures. Last month, Shopkeeper Ao went to Songjiazhuang to buy Bailian, but was told that it had been purchased long ago. When he wanted to order Huanghuali for August, he was told that someone had already ordered it. People have already placed a deposit. This meant that he could only watch. Shopkeeper Ao patted Song Xiaodong on the shoulder, with a shrewd look in his eyes, "If you want to follow Mr. Song, then we will be our own people from now on. I heard that in your village, every household will be allocated some pears, and your family also Is there any?" "Yes, how much do you want?" Song Xiaodong was about to say something. Suddenly remembering that the old patriarch told them to listen to Song Jin in the future, he looked up at Song Jin and said, "Young patriarch, um, hey, he asked me to buy huanghuali." "If you want to sell it, sell it to him. He won''t dare to cheat his own people." Song Jin came by chance. It is the time when huanghuali is ripe. Just picked the first crop. At this moment, Lao Huo and Qin Ba moved a basket of huanghuali from the carriage. Shopkeeper Ao looked at it and his eyes lit up. This pear was brought onto the carriage by the old patriarch. The yellow pears are very tempting at first sight. Song Jin picked up one, smelled it, wiped it with a handkerchief, put it in his mouth and took a bite, "It is indeed the famous huanghuali, juicy and sweet." Jianning huanghuali is famous all over the world, not without reason. Because it is really delicious. Shopkeeper Ao pulled Xiaodong aside and muttered. The more the conversation continued, shopkeeper Ao looked happy. Wait for shopkeeper Ao to leave in a hurry. Song Jin was sitting on a chair in the hall eating pears. Qin Qi and Qin Ba were also on the side, each holding a pear and gnawing on it, and Song Xiaocheng also had one in his hand. Song Xiaodong said: "Young patriarch, I am going back to the village tomorrow morning. Shopkeeper Ao said he wanted to buy pears, which just solves the village''s problem." "What''s going on?" Song Jin also noticed something interesting here. The white lotus and huanghuali in Songjiazhuang have always been in short supply, and suddenly they are unsalable. It is likely that someone is causing trouble. Song Xiaodong knew that Song Jin came from the same family. The old patriarch also said that she is the young patriarch of the family, so she is naturally a trustworthy person. At this time, Song Xiaodong looked angrily and said: "It''s the merchant who made the deposit before. Suddenly he said he wouldn''t buy it and didn''t ask for the deposit. We can''t force people to buy it? The patriarch contacted other merchants. Guess what?" Everyone in the hall was attracted. Song Jin looked at him, waiting for him to continue. Song Xiaodong said angrily: "It''s the manager of the second house of the Liu family who is causing trouble. He has stopped the merchants in the city from buying pears from Songjiazhuang. He also said that if we don''t sell them to him at a low price, he will let the pears rot on the mountain." If I had the support of my family before. They don''t have to worry, but something happened to our family. Song Jin was surprised, "The patriarch didn''t mention this to me." "The patriarch probably doesn''t want to trouble you." Song Xiaodong touched the back of his head and said. Song Jin asked: "If no one buys here, what will you do?" "The clan leader is contacting the clansmen in several neighboring states and asking them if they want it. If it is a long way, it will not be possible. The loss on the road will be relatively large." The picked huanghuali can only be stored for more than ten days, but it can actually be transported to other places for sale. The problem is that if the Liu family is determined to cause trouble, the pears may not be able to get out. Song Jin asked curiously: "Does the Liu family value something like Songjiazhuang? His family also has a pear orchard. He donates a large amount of money every year, which is equal to the annual income of Songjiazhuang. It is necessary to make the food look so ugly and ruin the reputation." "I don''t know about this." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Xiaodong was also confused. Qin Bada''s eyes lit up, "This designation was not the Liu family''s idea. It is probably because someone is arrogant and wants to make money by using the Liu family''s name." "That''s what I thought too." Songjiazhuang existed not for one or two years, but for decades. If the Liu family could take a liking to it, they would have taken action long ago. Why should they wait until this year? What''s more, there are several Liujia Liyuan, which are no smaller than the hills in Songjiazhuang. Song Jin added: "This matter is easy to solve. Let the clan leader find a way to bring the matter to the head of the Liu family. The Liu family donates relief every year and should pay attention to reputation. Remember, let the clan leader be more concealed and don''t make trouble. Its too big, so as not to bring shame on the head of the Liu family. Song Xiaodong suddenly realized. Immediately he was surprised again. "Young patriarch, I want to go back now." Song Xiaodong wished he could go back and talk to the old patriarch now. Song Jin looked at the dark night outside, "It won''t take more than an hour and a half. We will go back tomorrow morning. Xiaoba, take them down to rest." "yes." Qin Ba threw away the core in his hand. He bent down and grabbed one from the basket, put it in his arms and took it away. Qin Qi''s eyelids jumped. Song Jin was amused, "Just leave a few for me, and share the rest among everyone." Qin Ba just stepped out of the threshold. Hearing this, the leg slowly retracted, "Xiaodong and Xiaocheng, do you want to divide the pears before going down to rest?" The brothers nodded repeatedly. The two of them can share a few, of course they are happy. Every year, the best pears are picked and sold, and the remaining crooked melons, cracked dates, and jujubes are eaten. After Song Jin left, others had no worries. A few more days passed. Song Jin basically knew the situation in Jianzhou, but there was no news from shopkeeper Ao. When asked, he always said that he was investigating. "Is there really no news from Shopkeeper Ao?" Song Jin was sitting in the hall, holding a cup of tea in his hand, meditating on the solution. Qin Ba said seriously: "The speed of this investigation is very slow. Do you want me to supervise Shopkeeper Ao?" "Actually, he has tried his best to inquire, but they all said that there is no such person as Gan Jiabao." Qin Qi said this suddenly. Song Jin was silent again. In this case, either he was not a Dan citizen from Jianning, or Gan Jiabao''s name was false, or his name was real, but he used a false name when walking outside. Song Jin suddenly had a plan in mind. She called Qin Ba and gave a few instructions in a low voice. Qin Ba''s eyes suddenly lit up after hearing this, and he quickly nodded and left. Chapter 205 Song Jins plan Chapter 205 Song Jins plan In front of the Liu family gate. The red lacquer door opens lightly, and the stone lions on both sides are majestic and solemn. The wide bluestone road in front of the door has been polished by the years and is as smooth as a mirror. On the gate tower, there is a plaque with the words "Liu Zhai" written in official script with strong penmanship. On both sides of the gate, there is a tall locust tree with lush branches. The breeze blew and the leaves rustled. At this moment, the wheels rolled across the bluestone slab, making a dull sound. Several carriages stopped in front of the gate. The driver was wearing uniform blue clothes and had a respectful attitude. The head of the Liu family was the first to come out of the carriage. Just as he was about to walk towards the door. "Master Liu!" Someone shouted in the distance, "Please wait a moment." Following the sound, I saw not far away. The six or seven-year-old little beggar who was sitting there suddenly stood up and called him loudly, as if he was about to walk towards him, but was stopped by the servant. The little beggar said loudly again: "Master Liu, I have a letter here. Someone asked me to deliver it to you." "Go get the letter." The head of the Liu family said to his confidant, "Ask again who asked him to deliver the letter." The big butler beside him lowered his head and said yes, then hurried over to communicate with the little beggar. Naturally, the head of the Liu family would not stay at the outer gate and wait. Instead, he stepped through the door first. The Liu family''s mansion has a deep courtyard. The red walls and green tiles, the pavilions and pavilions are well arranged, exuding a sense of wealth. Occasionally there are servants passing through, in an orderly manner. Not long after leaving, the chief steward caught up and handed the little beggar''s letter to the Liu family''s head. The head of the Liu family tore it open and browsed through it, his eyes suddenly filled with anger, and he suppressed his anger again, "Have you ever asked who sent this letter?" "The little beggar said he didn''t know. He only said that it was given to him by a man who was dressed very elegantly. He gave him ten taels of silver as a fee for running errands." Even if the butler asked, it would be like he didn''t ask. I dont know his name and appearance, so theres no way to find out. The head of the Liu family immediately asked his confidants to investigate, "Go and check the second house. Are you planning to do something with the Song Family Village?" "There is no need to investigate this matter. I received the news the day before yesterday. I wanted to mention it to you, but the eldest young master said that I don''t need to trouble you with this trivial matter. Please forgive me, head of the family." The chief steward ran down to apologize in fear. The head of the Liu family sneered, "A bunch of idiots wanted me, Liu Mian, to be smart all my life, but instead gave birth to a stupid son." Cause him trouble every day. Do you think it will be easy for him to gain a good reputation? The head of the Liu family immediately ordered people to solve the stupid thing the second room had done. He quickly dealt with the steward, blamed him for everything, and sent an apology to the Song family village. "Yes, head of the family." The chief steward stood up and bowed his head respectfully and humbly, "Old slave, I''ll do it now." Everyone retreated. The butler went to the second room. It didn''t take long for the matter to be settled, neatly and neatly, and the matter was quickly spread to all the masters. Liu Ji was called over by the head of the Liu family and scolded him. He was also detained at home to study, which made him in a bad mood all day long. The favored maids in the courtyard tried their best to make him happy. Even the servants told Liu Ji a gossip and got a reward from Liu Ji. Only Liu Er was depressed to death. Because of the brothel incident, he has been ignored by Liu Ji recently. I was thinking of ways to remedy this, so I didn''t go out for a few days. "Brother Liu, are you unhappy?" A little maid asked with concern. Liu Er pouted, "Can this **** day make people happy?" The little maid rolled her big eyes and looked around. When she saw that no one was paying attention to them, she suggested in a low voice: "Brother Liu, do you want to follow Gao Yun''s example and go outside to collect some gossip and tell it to the eldest young master? As long as the eldest young master is happy, that matter will be over." Liu Eryi thought that it was really possible, and immediately looked at the little maid with admiration, "When I regain the trust of the eldest young master, I will not miss out on your benefits." "Then I would like to thank Brother Liu Er first." The little maid said cleverly, Liu Er responded perfunctorily, and hurriedly left the house. Liu Ergang went out from the back door of Liu''s house. Just turned into the alley. Suddenly a young man smelling of alcohol bumped into him and said, "Hey, it''s you. You want me to find someone to help you. Someone asked me to deliver something to you and also pass on a message." Liu Er was about to get angry. Immediately, he found a purse stuffed in his hand, which was filled with money, at least more than ten taels. "What are you talking about?" Liu Erfei quickly changed his face and asked with a smile. It was Qin Ba who hit him. People have made disguises. Qin Ba said in a rough voice, deliberately impatiently: "It was Gan Jiabao who asked me to send you a message so that you could find time to find him, saying that something good is waiting for you." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Did Gan Jiabao really ask you to come to me?" Liu Er looked at Qin Ba suspiciously, "Why haven''t I seen you before?" "It''s rare for me to go ashore, so I want to play a few games! I have to trouble me with a little thing, and it will delay me from winning money." Qin Ba turned and ignored Liu Er, and walked away with a curse, "Anyway, I have brought my words, you want to go Dont go! Liu Er had no chance to ask more questions. In a loft opposite. There were several people standing at a certain window. It was Song Jin and others. Here you can have a panoramic view of the scene at the alley. I saw Liu Er tossing the purse in his hand, then secretly went to the corner to pour out the silver and counted it. Besides the money, there was also a small note. Lao Huo said in surprise: "You also wrote a note? I remember that when we made the plan, I didn''t say anything to write." "I asked Qin Bajia to join him later." Song Jin explained a few words, "People like Liu Er are greedy, but they are also cautious. We have to make him feel that there is not much risk first. The note clearly stated that it is just using the name of the Liu family, and there is no risk. As long as everything is done, we will split the money 50-50, and we promise to give him at least 10,000 taels. really. Several people noticed that Liu Er was very excited after reading the note. Waited for a long time. Liu Er was spinning in place, rubbing his eyes from time to time, and opened the note again, even his face looked a bit ferocious and hateful. Lao Huo was very interested and asked: "Will he really be fooled?" "Definitely." Song Jin didn''t say this. But Song Xiaocheng, who has a simple and honest face and listens to everything. Lao Huo asked jokingly: "Why?" "With money, ghosts will be happy to serve others!" Song Xiaocheng''s face was simple and honest, but his eyes were shrewd, "If it were me, I would take the money to redeem myself, become a landlord, and buy some beautiful maids. Not to mention how wonderful my life would be." "A few are too few, at least thirty. Change one every day and take turns to serve. That is the life of gods." Lao Huo added. Song Xiaocheng nodded repeatedly. That little expression showed that he agreed very much. Suddenly, snap! Someone slapped me on the back of my head. Song Xiaodong whispered: "Have you woken up from the dream?" "Wake up, wake up!" Song Xiaocheng shrank his neck. Just at this moment, Liu Er moved! He hurried to Fangshi and rented a carriage to go out of the city. Song Jin had already made arrangements and quickly followed on horseback. Far behind. "This direction is Jianjiang!" Song Xiaodong exclaimed in surprise. Chapter 206 Theres something really weird here Chapter 206 There is indeed something strange here Jianjiang is the ancient name of Minjiang River. The name comes from Jianxi, its birthplace. The three main tributaries of Jianxi, Futunxi and Shaxi merge and are called the Minjiang River. It passes through the coastal mountains to Fuzhou and Nantai Island, where it branches into the north and south branches. It merges into one stream at Luoxing Tower, then turns northeast and flows out of Langqi Island into the East China Sea. Shopkeeper Ao and others have sent people to Jianxi to inquire in recent days, and the scope is gradually expanding. Song Jin also understood at this time. The man named Gan Jiabao was indeed not within the scope of their inquiries. Then Song Jin gave some instructions in a low voice. Lao Huo and Qin Ba avoided Liu Er''s carriage and moved a big stone in front to block the middle of the road. Lao Huo went to the front to investigate first. Qin Ba hid near the big stone. Sure enough, the stone in the middle of the road blocked the carriage Liu Er rented. Liu Er cursed a few times. We can only get out of the car and move the stones away with the driver. Wait for the boulder to move to the side of the road. Liu Er was already panting and slumped down, "Damn it, some wicked and smoking guy did this. Don''t let me find him, or I will skin him." Suddenly a gust of wind and sand blew up. He rushed towards Liu Er furiously. Liu Er squinted at the dust and quickly raised his arms to cover his face. A figure quickly passed by. He took the purse from Liu Er''s arms as easily as he was searching for something, and then quickly disappeared into the grass on the roadside. Qin Ba took back the purse he sent out, destroyed the small note inside, and hid in the dark to check Liu Er''s situation. I saw Liu Er getting up in embarrassment. He dusted himself off and got into the car with a curse. The coachman''s condition was slightly better than Liu Er''s, but not much better. His eyes were filled with sand and he couldn''t open them. After a while, he drove away. When Song Jin and others came over. Qin Ba appeared and grinned, "Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life." "Thanks for your hard work." Song Jin motioned for him to mount his horse. Another half hour passed. Song Jin and others arrived near the river bank. The surface of the river is sparkling, and the water gently laps the stones on the shore, making a pleasant sound. Rows of Dan family fishing boats are parked on the shore, with bamboo poles stuck in the ground, nets hanging in the air, and sampans laid out horizontally. There was a dark-skinned fisherman repairing a broken fishing net. Liu Er came over in a hurry. The fisherman asked loudly: "Liu Er, why do you have time to come here?" "I have something to do with Gan Da." Liu Er responded casually. "Then you''re unlucky, he went out to sea." The fisherman suddenly said. Liu Er paused in his steps. Reluctantly, he jumped on one of the fishing boats. It came out again after a while. Liu Er came ashore again, "Uncle, do you know when Gan Da will be back?" "I don''t know that." The fisherman gave a strange answer, but Liu Er was not surprised. After saying a few more words, Liu Er left. Song Jin looked at the carriage Liu Er was leaving, and asked thoughtfully: "Uncle Huo, have you found any problems with this gathering place for the Dan people? The terrain is relatively remote, let alone talking about it. If you are not an acquaintance, you really can''t find it here." "There''s something really weird here." Lao Huo looked at it with a frown, "There are no women and children, so it doesn''t look like a normal gathering place for the Dan people. Also, this is equivalent to the source of Jianjiang River. Most of the people who settled their homes here should have been working on the river." If you make a living by fishing, how many of you would choose to go out to sea instead of being close by? Even if you go out to sea, you also need a big boat. " Song Jin suddenly realized what he said. good! It is these violations. What was even more inconsistent was the fisherman''s answer. If you go fishing normally, how can you not have an approximate time when you will come back? I can tell you all from experience. I can''t explain why the fisherman violated the rules. Unless Gan Jiabao went to sea not for fishing, but for some kind of mission? This made Song Jin subconsciously think of the forces hidden behind the scenes, as well as the ship that picked up the Song family from the Zhu family''s merchant ship. Song Jin couldn''t help but feel a chill in his heart when he thought of this. "Is our trip over?" Song Jin suddenly asked in a low voice. Qin Ba replied: "Most of the traces have been erased, only Liu Er is left." "Then Liu Er won''t have a chance to say it." Song Jin knew that the big family had strict rules. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Not only the master, but also the servants. Occasionally, the master will pamper a few favored slaves, but the premise is that the slaves are loyal and will not do anything illegal. Song Jin then ordered: "Before Liu Er goes back, find a way to let Liu Ji know that Liu Er went out without permission." "yes!" Qin Ba wants to go back first. Song Jin and others retreated from the river and entered a mountain forest. Lao Huo took the initiative to stay and investigate. Shopkeeper Ao''s manpower is temporarily at Lao Huo''s disposal. Song Jin took the others back to the city. Horseback riding is faster than horse carriage. On the way, a group of people passed Liu Er''s carriage directly. Liu Er had no doubt about this and just thought that someone was passing by. Qin Ba moved the hidden thread buried in the Liu family. The news that Liu Er went out quietly reached Liu Ji''s ears. After Liu Ji heard the news. After waiting for a long time, Qin Ba still didn''t see any movement from Liu Ji, so he went back to report the follow-up report to Song Jin, "Madam, Liu Ji didn''t react at all." "Liu Er and Liu Ji have grown up together, and they must have had feelings for each other, but they were probably defeated by Liu Er. The last time Liu Er went to a brothel to drink wine, Liu Ji caught him on the spot. How long has it been? , he committed it again..." Song Jin knew some of the psychology of those in power. He can tolerate his subordinates being stupid, but he will not tolerate his repeated defiance of authority. You must know that children of concubines from wealthy families must obtain the consent of the head of the house if they want to go out, let alone the slaves raised by the family? Leaving one''s post without the master''s approval is simply disrespecting the master! Therefore, just as Song Jin expected. As soon as Liu Er returned to the Liu family, he asked the eldest young master to send someone to tie him up and send him directly to Zhuangzi in the suburbs. He disappeared completely that night. In fact, he was secretly sent to mine. Qin Ba has been paying attention to Liu Er''s movements. The next day, he looked solemn when he came back. He met Song Jin privately and said, "Madam, I want to send a secret message to the young master." "What did you find?" Song Jin asked cautiously. Qin Ba hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice and said: "I found out that the Liu family was secretly mining iron ore. That Liu Erming said on the surface that he was sent to Zhuangzi, but in fact he only stayed in Zhuangzi for half a day and was sent away that night. Iron mine, I originally thought that the village leader was going to kill Liu Er to silence him, but I found out after following him..." This happened by mistake. Qin Ba was worried that Liu Er would reveal their plan and alert the Liu family to pursue it. Is this the result? Song Jin was shocked after hearing this. At the beginning of the founding of the Great Xia Dynasty, private mining was prohibited. At that time, the world was stable and the laws were strict, and no one dared to take big risks to mine privately. The Liu family dared to mine iron ore privately! The disaster of confiscating the family and annihilating the clan! The Liu family is too courageous! With so much iron, do you still want to rebel? Chapter 207 Escape from Jianning Mansion Chapter 207 Escape from Jianning Mansion Song Jin felt a strong sense of crisis in his heart, his heart was beating suddenly, and he made a decision immediately: "Qin Ba, summon Lao Huo and ask him to come back immediately. There is no need to investigate further." Qin Ba was stunned for a moment and responded immediately. Wait for Qin Ba to go out. Qin Qi was confused, "Madam, are you going to give up the clue?" "It''s not about giving up, it''s about being more cautious." Song Jin sighed again in his heart. The more dangerous it is, the more cautious you should be. What they did was not perfect. If the Liu family is aware that someone is investigating, there is no need for evidence. All it takes is a hint to kill them. In the Song family case in Huizhou, were there not many innocent people who were implicated and lost their lives? Song Jin touched his temples with a headache, "If we continue to investigate, I''m afraid I won''t be able to leave Jianning Mansion." "My subordinates will protect you even if they die." Qin Qi said firmly. Song Jin shook his head, "It''s not advisable to hit an egg against a stone." As if recalling something, she stood up from the chair, walked to the window, and looked at the lush flowers in the yard. "My father once taught me that a gentleman should not stand on a dangerous wall. In the face of danger, he should give in. Don''t be careless and take chances. Just like the ghosts who drown in the river, they are usually people who can swim. reason." What people hate the most is arrogance. Unless absolutely necessary, Song Jin prefers to sit on the Diaoyutai. Connect things one after another. This is a big deal that will break the sky! Now Song Jin is 80% sure. The Liu family is related to the Song family case. Concerned that her family is still in the hands of the other party, Song Jin must not stand on the bright side and be the one who takes the lead, let alone let the Liu family notice her. The Liu family is a giant. If you want to uproot the Liu family, the best way is to use the power of the imperial court to encircle and suppress them. How to implement it specifically needs to be discussed in the long term. Originally, Song Jin''s plan was quite good. But I cant help but the situation has changed! The next day. Shopkeeper Ao appeared in a hurry and said anxiously: "Mr. Song, Lao Huo has sent a message, asking me to take you out of Jianning Mansion as soon as possible. The trading company happens to have a cargo ship here. I will take you away by water." Shopkeeper Ao wants to send Song Jin out of the city now. I didn''t even have time to pack my things. Song Jin didn''t say anything. He immediately changed into women''s clothes, Qin Qi dressed as a maid, and Song Xiaodong and Song Xiaocheng changed into servants'' clothes. He left the city under the **** of shopkeeper Ao. Song Jin passed three checkpoints along the way. The defense is getting stricter every time. Have to check again at the dock. We boarded the cargo ship of Shun''an Trading Company and entered the rest cabin. Song Jin asked: "Now I can tell you, what happened?" Shopkeeper Ao wiped his sweat and said: "Lao Huo went to investigate and was discovered by a wolf dog kept on the boat. He almost died there." It was Qin Ba who appeared in time to save him. "What about others?" Song Jin asked concernedly. "You are recuperating in a Zhuangzi outside the city. They dare not show up, so they asked their subordinates to send you out of Jianning Mansion as soon as possible." Shopkeeper Ao said solemnly, "They said that you don''t have to worry about their safety. As long as you are safe, they will be fine." Song Jin''s safety is the top priority in everything. Leaving by boat is not necessarily safe. Song Jin would be safer without Lao Huo and Qin Ba following him. Sure enough, Shun''an''s cargo ship was stopped by the government as soon as it sailed out of Jianzhou. It was a government ship, blocking the cargo ship. Not only the ships in Shun''an were investigated, but all passing ships were searched, in the name of the imperial court searching for fugitives. Song Jin is currently pretending to be a woman visiting relatives, accompanied by a maid and two servants. This combination is not uncommon outside. A team of officers and soldiers boarded the ship to search. Song Jin and others were also investigated. The fugitives were outsiders. It was said that there was a strong man among them and he was injured. There is nothing suspicious on this ship. After the captain stuffed him with a few taels of hard-earned money, those people let him go. Song Jin''s heart was heavy. The Liu family and Jianning Mansion''s soldiers can also be mobilized. The situation is more serious than expected. What about the officials in Jianning? In fact, it was a bit unwilling to let her leave like this. Clues to the family were right in front of them, but nothing could be done. Along the way, the cargo ship was stopped and searched three times by officers and soldiers. You will lose a fortune every time. After floating on the water for three days, I successfully left the confines of Jianning Mansion. Song Jin and others went ashore and changed into horses. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Six days later, he returned to Yi County, Huizhou. The news about Song Jin and others also reached the capital. Qin Chi had always paid attention to Song Jin''s whereabouts. When he heard that Song Jin went to a brothel, he was secretly angry. Before he could calm down, another big trick was revealed for him! The only thing I felt lucky was that nothing happened to Song Jin. When Old Li Tou saw Qin Chi''s face filled with evil spirits, his heart was slightly frightened, and he asked tentatively: "Sir, what happened in Jianning Mansion?" Qin Chi said coldly: "Some people don''t want to live anymore!" Then, he dipped his fingers into the tea. I wrote a few words on the desktop. When Lao Li saw him for the first time, his expression changed drastically. "Seriously?" Old Li Tou blurted out. Qin Chi said: "Can what Qin Ba saw with his own eyes still be false?" If some people in the private sector cannot survive, they will take risks to sell private mining properties, but that is a small amount of mining, and the Liu family''s situation is obviously a large amount. Because I am in the capital. Little is known about Jianning Mansion. The news they received was intermittent, but it was enough to shock them. Old Li narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Based on the time, Madam should have arrived in Huizhou." "It''s almost there." Qin Chi was a little worried that Song Jin would go back and forget about him after having a child. This is something Song Jin can do. Old Li Tou pondered: "Master, do you want to use the manpower given to you by the Crown Prince to investigate?" He Lianpu was handed over to Qin Chi''s forces. It had been accumulated by the palace for decades and was naturally much more powerful than what Qin Chi had established himself. However, this proposal was rejected by Qin Chi. Qin Chi burned the secret letter, "This world belongs to the one in the palace, and he should be the one to guard it. When will it be my turn to be a little scholar?" "Then do nothing?" Lao Li Tou was surprised by Qin Chi''s decision. Qin Chi smiled coldly, "I haven''t figured out who is behind the Liu family or who supports his family in the court. I guess it''s the Yang family, but that''s just my guess, isn''t it? We have to get actual evidence. Make another decision." Otherwise, he would use his people rashly. He would not be happy to lose even one person. Maybe the suspicious emperor thought it was Prince Rui''s palace who wanted to rebel. At this moment, footsteps were heard outside. Old Man Hong said, "Sir, the third young master of Lingdinghou Mansion is here to visit." "Take him to the living room." Qin Chi responded. Lao Li stood up and left. Qin Chi also walked outside. After a while, I heard Ling Yuanhao''s loud voice: "Brother Qi''an, I can see you. Come on, we brothers haven''t seen each other for so long. Let''s go to Piaoxiang Tower for a few drinks." "Are you being released?" Qin Chi looked him up and down and said, "Are you injured? It''s said outside that you were taken care of by the family, and you were beaten until you couldn''t get out of bed for a year and a half." Chapter 208 Huizhou Drama Chapter 208 Huizhou Drama "That''s an exaggeration! It was spread by others." When Ling Yuanhao denied it, he subconsciously touched his butt. He had a fight with Zhou Kefu in the street. This is nothing. The problem is that the family surnamed Zhou has an uncle who is a censor. No, Ling Dinghou''s house was found in a book, saying that his family was lax and his son committed a murder in the street. The emperor asked people to find out and give each person fifty pieces. Then, Ling Yuanhao was unlucky. After being punished by the family, he was grounded again. As soon as he came out, he ran to Qin Chi. Ling Yuanhao waited for the tea to be served, then looked around, "Where''s my sister-in-law? Why can''t I see anyone?" "I''m back to Huizhou. I''ll come back later." Qin Chi thought of Song Jin, whom he hadn''t seen for a long time, and felt dazed for a moment, wondering if he should go back to Huizhou? As soon as the idea came up, Qin Chi rejected it. It takes months to go back and forth, which delays things too much. Song Jin is being remembered. Unexpectedly, I just came back and encountered another good show. "What''s going on? Come here to live a good life, and don''t you care about me and your father in the countryside?" Mr. Liu was cursing in the yard, "Every one''s wings are stiff and they are about to fly! Oh, God, why don''t you accept us two immortals? Let''s see what kind of things I have given birth to. Its all unfilial stuff! "Mom! What do you want?" Qin Laosan shouted loudly, "We have separated our families, and you also choose to live with the fourth child. Do we give less gifts during the holidays?" "that is!" Mrs. Liu was not happy either, "My mother-in-law doesn''t want to give our third family a way to survive!" Song Jin pushed open the door. When going around the screen wall. Then I saw a bunch of people in the yard. All the people in the four rooms were alive and it was very lively. "What''s going on?" Song Jin looked around and saw Mrs. Li in the corner, and two children who were so frightened that they hid behind Mrs. Li and Xiaoyu. This made Song Jin''s face darken and he looked straight at Old Qin. Old Qin''s eyes dodge. It seemed that Song Jin would come back at this time. Even Qin Mingsong was embarrassed. Qin Mingsong stood up and said apologetically: "I''m sorry, I wanted to stop you, but I didn''t. It''s my fault today." "Really?" Song Jin didn''t know whether he believed it or not, but he said: "I believe that if you lift people upright, today''s matter will be solved perfectly." Since I don''t know what happened. But Song Jin was right to be nervous about Da Fang. It must be Old Liu and Sifang who are causing trouble again. Old Liu didn''t know why, but when Song Jin stood there with a cold face, he felt inexplicably terrified. Old Qin spoke up: "If you have something to do, sit down and discuss it. Why are the whole family so noisy?" After saying this, he looked at Song Jin again, "Dalang''s wife, didn''t you say that she went to the capital and it would take several years to come back? Why did she come back suddenly?" "I came back thinking about the child." Song Jin half-smiled but said, "How can you see a good show if you don''t come back?" Then she turned her attention to the other person in the corner. It is Song embroidery. We haven''t seen each other for a few months. Song Xiu was so thin that he was almost reduced to a bone, and his face was also numb. You don''t need to guess. After Song Jin left, Song Xiu''s life was not good. Everyone present looked embarrassed. Mrs. Li pulled the child up and said, "Dalang''s wife is back, Huzi, Niuniu, please call me mother." The two children heard that their mother was back. He jumped towards Song Jin with his short legs, holding one thigh and giggling. Now Song Jin''s anger was rising, and he was cured by the children. He picked up one in each hand and walked inside. Xiaoyu quickly followed. Mrs. Huang also pulled Mrs. Li and motioned for her to leave too. So Dafang left Boss Qin behind. Song Jin took the child back to the wing. Li and others also came in, and there was actually an extra person here, Song Xiu, who walked silently. Song Xiu''s eyes were always glued to Song Jin. They were originally very jealous eyes, but the more they looked at her, the weirder they became. In the end, the eyes turned back and forth on Song Jin''s face. Li wanted to tell Song Jin what happened at home, but Song Xiu was here and she couldn''t bring it up. "How about I stay away from the child while you two sisters talk?" Song Jin holds the child. I didn''t want to deal with Song Xiu at first. But Song Xiu''s eyes were so uncomfortable that even the two children noticed it and shrank into her arms. "Song Xiu, look at me like that again, believe it or not, I dug them up for you?" Song Jin threatened in a calm tone. Song Xiu shivered inexplicably. He averted his eyes. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin asked Xiang Li, "Mom, just pretend she doesn''t exist. What happened at home?" "What can I do? It''s nothing." Li didn''t want to say it, it was really hard to say. On the contrary, it was Mrs. Huang who spoke for her, Kuai Ren said quickly: "The old lady found out somewhere that her three sons made a fortune doing business in Hongcun and bought a big house. She came here specifically to get a share of the pie." "What did grandma say?" Song Jin knew it wouldn''t be a good thing, but she wanted to hear it. Mrs. Huang glanced at the door. At this time, Xiaoyu raised her hand and said, "I know this. She wants this house, and then we gave the house in Qinjiagou to Dafang. We said it was for rent, but she refused to believe it. Also, she wanted the bookstore, too." She should share at least half of the money she earns, as well as those from small restaurants..." After saying that, Xiaoyu shook her head and sighed, "Hey, not giving it would be unfilial." Everyone clearly knew that Mr. Liu was causing trouble. It hinders elders and hinders filial piety. Her son and daughter-in-law can''t do anything to her, let alone her grandchildren. Song Jin looked at Song Xiu, "Did you instigate it?" "Oh, I don''t have the ability." When Song Xiu spoke, his voice was hoarse, as if it were sanded and a bit unpleasant. For an instant, Song Jin was stunned. The focus was not on the words, but on her voice. Is this hurting your throat? Li and others carried the child out, leaving room for the two sisters to talk. Song Jin glanced at the door. The door was open, but there was no one. At this time, Song Xiu stared at Song Jin''s face unscrupulously. Song Jin stood up and walked around Song Xiu, "Did you insist on taking the marriage, but in the end, you ended up living like a human being, a ghost or a ghost?" "How can you be better than me?" Song Xiu gritted her teeth and said, "Don''t you usually look in the mirror? Your face becomes more and more disabled as time goes by. You were still a beauty before, but what does it mean now?" Song Xiu didn''t pay attention before. After being separated for so long, I was shocked to see this problem at first glance. After Song Xiu finished speaking, his eyes turned red. The body, which was reduced to bones, was trembling slightly. After biting his lip for a while, tears started to flow out, but he still stubbornly stopped talking. Song Jin sneered, walked to the chair next to him and sat down, "Tell me, what happened?" "Then Bai Cuiwei is not dead." Song Xiu said angrily, "I was pregnant with another child, but she lost her because of her scheme!" Song Jin''s eyebrows raised in surprise. Bai Cuiwei is not dead. You actually still have the energy to scheme against Song Xiu? "Sister, help me teach her a lesson!" Song Xiu seemed to have found a backbone, and it was a natural request. Song Jin just wanted to say, you think too much about my stupid sister. Even if she does something, it won''t be because of Song Xiu. (End of chapter) Chapter 209 Inside story of abortion Chapter 209 The inside story of abortion Song Jin came back from the dust and didn''t want to spend too much time dealing with Song Xiu. He signaled that Song Xiu could leave. Unfortunately the other party didn''t leave. Song Jin glanced at Song Xiu and asked, "Why is Bai Cuiwei plotting against you?" Song Xiu said gloomily: "She replaced my pregnancy-preserving medicine with medicine for aborting the baby." "You are in Qinjiagou, how can she change your medicine?" The more Song Jin thought about it, the more unreasonable he felt. I just came back to Yi County and I haven''t asked Xiao Liuzi yet. Song Xiu became angry again, "Do you want to help me or not? Why do you ask so many questions?" "No help." Song Jin was impatient and continued to act, "Where did you get the nerve to ask me to help you? Our relationship has been broken for a long time. I didn''t publicize it to the outside world, so I saved some face for you." Song Xiu''s eyes widened in disbelief, "I''m already so miserable, and you''re adding insult to injury? Don''t force me to hate you!" "What you said is ridiculous." Song Jin looked coldly and said: "Since you entered the Qin family, has there ever been a day when you didn''t hate me? How was a day when you didn''t look forward to my downfall?" Song Xiu heard it. He felt guilty again and his eyes flickered. "If you don''t help, you won''t help!" Song Xiu left angrily and cursed before leaving: "Besides changing my relationship, I didn''t do anything to feel sorry for you. The most I did was say, you already have children of your own, and you still miss my husband" "Husband, husband?" Song Xiucuo looked at Qin Mingsong in astonishment. Qin Mingsong clenched his fist and quickly released it, "Dad said he was going back, so he asked me to come find you. Xiu''er, it''s time for us to go back." He reached out to hold Song Xiu''s hand. Song Xiu''s body trembled. She feels that Qin Mingsong is very dangerous now. Qin Mingsong took Song Xiu away, and Song Jin finally calmed down. Mrs. Huang boiled hot water. Song Jin ate something after taking a bath. "Is there no news from Jianning?" Song Jin was most concerned about the safety of Lao Huo and Qin Ba. When Qin Qi replied no, he added, "There is news, please inform me as soon as possible." "Okay, ma''am." Qin Qi responded respectfully. Song Jin asked about the two brothers Song Xiaodong again and learned that they had been settled, so he said no more and asked Qin Qi to go down and rest. Traveling continuously these days will make everyone tired. Song Jin went out to talk to Mr. Li for a while. Played with the kids again. He told Li Shi one by one about Qin Chi''s situation in the capital. In fact, there is not much to say. Qin Chi''s life is peaceful on the surface. I cant tell what happened behind the scenes. "Are you still going to the capital?" Li asked. Song Jin said warmly: "I want to go, but I want to stay at home for a while to spend time with my children." "Okay, you can make your own decision." Ms. Li didn''t have the idea of ??forcing her daughter-in-law to listen to her mother-in-law, but she was a little sad because she was being made trouble by Mr. Liu during this period. Song Jin said: "Before I leave, I will help you solve the problems at the old house." "How to solve it?" Li asked. Song Jin smiled and said: "I will talk to my grandfather. He is the only one in the family who can control grandma." Li had no doubts about this. Song Jin met with Mr. Qin privately. Old man Qin also felt a little guilty when facing Song Jin, "Will the young man''s wife stay at home this time?" Song Jin did not answer this topic, but looked at Old Qin steadily, "The family should not be short of money, right?" "Hey, I can''t control your grandma." Old man Qin said with helplessness, "There are still four children who want to go out to study and need a lot of money." Qin Chi went to the Imperial College to study. This irritated Qin Mingsong. Not long after Qin Mingsong failed the exam, he went back to study in an academy. He first returned to Ziyang Academy. Perhaps because of Bai Cuiwei, Bai Daru had a bad impression of him. After staying in Ziyang Academy for a while, Bai Daru didn''t give him any advice. Or most of the time, even if he came to visit him, Bai Daru would make excuses not to see him. Qin Mingsong finally recognized it. Bai Cuiwei''s experience made Bai Daru angry and angry with him. Therefore, he also wanted to study in the capital. It doesnt have to be the Imperial College, there are several famous academies in the capital. But Qin Mingsong doesn''t have much savings. Studying in Beijing requires a lot of money, and the consumption will be higher. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Mrs. Liu would not blame her son for going to the capital to study, but would only try to find ways to get him money so that he could continue to support his son''s studies. Song Jin sneered, "How much money do you want? Isn''t five thousand taels a year enough?" "you-" Old Qin''s eyes widened suddenly. Song Jin raised her lips and said, "Uncle Qin, isn''t family harmony good? If you have to make it so ugly, your other three sons will not live well. Every copper they earn is hard-earned money." Old Qin''s face looked a little ugly. Song Jin added: "Do you really want your father and son to separate? You can blame your wife, but you are the head of the family after all. We are not fools, right? Some things can be tolerated once or twice, but I get tired of it over and over again and want to be destroyed. Her voice had little ups and downs. Calmly, like chatting. But old man Qin was frightened when he heard it. Especially Song Jin''s indifferent eyes, like the eyes of a superior, Old Man Qin did not dare to treat her as just a casual chat. So that day. Old Qin dragged Old Liu back to Qinjiagou. This is how the drama at home ended. the next day. There is a large table of meals in the second and third bedrooms. Everyone enjoyed the family dinner happily. Afterwards, Song Jin went to the medicine shop. Yinlong was very surprised to see her back. When he learned that something was going on, he came back to stay for a few days. "There is nothing in the medicine shop. It''s a busy time." But there is no Song Jin here. The overall quality of the medicinal materials was worse than before. Fortunately, Shun''an Trading Company was aware of the situation and didn''t say anything more. Song Jin once taught Yinlong and his wife some skills related to Song''s medicinal materials, but she did not teach those unique skills that only the head of the family could learn. After seeing it in the pharmacy. Song Jin met Xiao Liuzi. Lou Ruhan left Huizhou with Xing Lun, and now Xiaoliuzi is in charge of all the people in the town. Xiao Liuzi was also staring at Qinjiagou and Bai Cui''s slight movements. Song Jin found out after asking. Bai Cuiwei was really capable, even more so than Song Xiu. She had been living in a nunnery before, but she had been seeking medical treatment and was unwilling to lose one of her arms. The famous doctor in Huizhou looked at it again and again. It still didn''t work, but I spent all my money on it. Qin Mingsong also made a fortune. The entanglement between the two was still very deep. Even though Bai Cuiwei was down and out, Qin Mingsong showed that he would never leave her, and finally took her out of the nunnery. I bought a small house to live in outside. Externally, they are treated as husband and wife. The neighbors all thought they were a couple. Xiao Liuzi suddenly said: "My boss, do you want to hear the inside story about Song Xiu''s miscarriage?" Chapter 210 Good-hearted people who do good deeds Chapter 210: Good Samaritans Who Do Good Deeds "Song Xiu said it was Bai Cuiwei who caused the harm." Song Jin said what Song Xiu said, "Do you know the truth?" "That''s right." Xiao Liuzi was thinking about what to say, "Actually, it was Qin Juren who actually went to change the dressing." Song Jin was inexplicably shocked, "Is this true?" "Absolutely true." Xiao Liuzi asked anxiously, "You said that as long as Song Xiu survives, there is no need for us to come forward to help her, so we did not stop this matter after hesitation." "fine." Song Jin couldn''t blame Xiao Liuzi for this, "Then why is it related to Bai Cuiwei again?" "Song Xiu was pregnant. When Bai Cuiwei found out, she cried every day and became seriously ill." Xiao Liuzi''s expression was hard to explain, "Qin Mingsong, in order to show his affection, promised that he would not want any other children except the ones she gave birth to. Then, he changed Song Xiu''s fetal medicine..." "Song Xiu has had an abortion, and Bai Cuiwei''s illness will be cured?" A sharp look flashed deep in Song Jin''s eyes. Xiao Liuzi nodded. Song Jin asked again: "What benefits did Qin Mingsong get?" "A letter of recommendation from Bai Daru, saying that he can go to Shuntian Mansion to study." Xiaoliuzi''s people only learned about these things by spying on Bai Cuiwei. Song Jin finally came to his senses. Qin Mingsong''s so-called sweetheart is a joke. Including Song embroidery is also a joke. Regarding this matter, Bai Cuiwei was vicious, but Qin Mingsong was cold-blooded and ruthless. Things in the past life can no longer be studied, but one or two things can be gleaned from this life. Song Jin was grateful that she was a widow in her previous life. Song Jin''s eyes flashed across the dim light, "Tell Song Xiu the truth and find a way to tell her, and then tell her the address where Bai Cuiwei currently lives, and the things that make her and Qin Mingsong worthy of being husband and wife." "Okay boss, I''ll go and do it right now." Xiao Liuzi''s method is very quick. He wrote a letter, detailing the whole story and attaching Bai Cuiwei''s address. At the end of the signature, there is a line: A good-hearted person who accumulates virtue and does good deeds. Then he asked a stranger to deliver the letter to Song Xiu. If someone sends a letter to him, Song Xiu will naturally open it and read it. After watching it, I was immediately blown away! They took two servant girls from home and raided the place where Bai Cuiwei lived. They beat Bai Cuiwei severely and asked the servant girls to tell the neighbors who came to see the fun at the door that the woman inside was an outsider. "Wow, it turns out it''s the first wife who''s looking for an extramarital affair." A lady said with great interest. A bitter voice also came, "Aren''t you talking about a young couple? They also said that the husband is a juren, but I didn''t expect... oh, it''s actually a thing to seduce men." "I haven''t hooked up with your man, what are you afraid of?" "Go, I should keep a closer eye on you. Who knows if he hooked up with someone else." The ladies and ladies who were watching were all dirtier than the last. Song Jin stood outside the crowd. Even Qin Qi didn''t know what Song Jin meant, and standing outside watching didn''t seem like he was worried about Song Xiu suffering a loss. From time to time, Bai Cuiwei''s screams and Rouzhu''s begging for mercy could be heard in the room. The farce stopped after Song Xiu packed up all the jewelry and money in Bai Cuiwei''s house. Many people saw Song Xiu''s move and thought that bandits would rob their families. Song Jin came out not only to watch this farce, but the main reason was to go to Shun''an Trading Company to inquire about the news from Jianning Mansion. Sure enough, I saw Shopkeeper Tao. "Madam, are you here?" Shopkeeper Tao saluted respectfully. Song Jin raised his hand to indicate that he didn''t have to be polite, "I came here specifically to ask how things are going in Jianning?" Shopkeeper Tao thought she was here to ask for news about the young master, but it turned out that she was asking about Jianning? If the young master finds out, will he change his face? Shopkeeper Tao said: "I received a safe letter from Lao Huo and Qin Ba, but they said they still have things to do and need to wait for a while before leaving Jianning." "That''s good." Song Jin''s heart dropped slightly. Seeing that everything was alright, Song Jin was about to leave, but Shopkeeper Tao stopped him, "Madam, you don''t care about the young master?" "What''s the matter? What''s he doing in the capital?" Song Jin turned around and asked in surprise. "No, it''s okay, I''m a very nice person..." Shopkeeper Tao smiled dryly. Song Jin listened and nodded. He walked out without looking back. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Before leaving, I heard a steward nagging about what kind of banquet the Huizhou magistrate''s house was going to hold and what kind of gifts he should give when he went to the business house. Shopkeeper Tao responded angrily. Then he caught up and sent Song Jin off respectfully. Before getting on the carriage, Song Jin looked back at Shopkeeper Tao, "The prefect of Huizhou is no longer Yang Lingyu, right?" "Prefect Yang was transferred back to the capital last year to take up a post." Shopkeeper Tao replied. Song Jin didn''t ask any more questions and got into the carriage. Thinking of this big enemy, Song Jin''s face became frosty. Something happened to the Song family suddenly, and Yang Lingyu took the greatest credit. Song Jin could not bear to touch him for so long. Through a gap in the curtain, Song Jin looked outside and asked: "Ah Qi, do you know what official position Yang Lingyu will hold when he returns to Beijing?" Qin Qi thought for a while and replied: "I will serve as the Young Minister of Dali Temple." "This is a big deal for the Yang family. Yang Zhengkai is a cabinet minister. He is a bachelor of Dongge University and the right minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He is a senior official of the third rank. His nephew has become a young minister of Dali Temple. He is a senior minister of the fourth rank. All of them have real power. On the contrary, His eldest son is appointed as a doctor in the Ministry of Rites and seems somewhat incompetent." There are three serving officers in one department. And their official positions are all above the fifth rank. It is rare to see this in the capital. Usually the emperor would not do this in order not to leave hidden dangers, so as not to dominate the family. It can be seen from this that Mr. Yang Ge was deeply in love with the Sacred Heart. Recalling his previous life, Song Jin felt a little regretful. If she knew there was a chance to be reborn, she would definitely understand everything that happened over the past ten years. Unfortunately, she stayed away from the court in her previous life. I only know a little bit about the major events in the world. That''s true. It''s not a humble statement. Song Jin pondered in a low voice: "Yang Lingyu''s wife is the Liu family. The head of the Liu family wants to send his daughter to the Yang family to marry Yang Yingrong. In addition, the eldest son of the Liu family is engaged to Liu Jianfang?" "The Yang family and the Liu family had no contact before. Now it''s better. The Liu family will become the link between the two." After Song Jin thought deeply, he was frightened. Not to mention the things that have not surfaced, just thinking about the alliance of these three parties is terrifying. If it is really uprooted, the court will be in turmoil. Song Jin stayed in Huizhou to wait for Lao Huo and his wife, spending the whole day with their children, and occasionally listening to Song Xiu''s gossip. Song Xiu and Qin Mingsong had a big fight. This time, Qin Mingsong''s face was not taken into consideration. The matter spread in Qinjiagou. It was the Qin clan leader who suppressed the matter for the sake of the family''s face and did not allow people in the village to spread the word. But now the people in the village look at Qin Mingsong differently. His character was deeply questioned. None of these things seemed to be done by humans. You must know that tiger poison does not eat its seeds, Qin Mingsong is worse than a beast. Song Jin didn''t know what kind of medicine Qin Chi had administered, and Qin Mingsong obviously didn''t know what Bai Cuiwei couldn''t have done. If Qin Mingsong knew about it, how should he feel? Chapter 211 Just get used to it Chapter 211 Just get used to it "Jin''er, have you ever thought about when you will go to the capital?" Mrs. Li looked at Song Jin who was playing with her children and asked, "You don''t have to worry about things at home. It''s just a matter of money." "It''s not a big deal, but it''s annoying." Song Jin gently pinched the little girl''s chubby face. Li Shi chuckled, "Just get used to it." This kind of thing is really hard to get used to, but you have to get used to it. After all, most women live like this after getting married. "If you don''t go to the capital, you won''t be able to celebrate the Double Ninth Festival with Dalang." Li reminded again. Song Jin smiled and said: "He has made acquaintance with his classmates, and there will be no shortage of people to accompany him. Mother does not have to worry about him." This was noticed by my wife. Li pursed her lips and smiled softly. Song Jin added: "I want to stay in Huizhou and spend the Double Ninth Festival with my children before leaving. Hongcun Nan Lake is known as the Little West Lake. Then our family will go to play." "You just have to make the decision." Mr. Li finally responded. Song Jin stayed in Huizhou because he wanted to wait for Lao Huo and Qin Ba. Even if they said they had a safe letter, they still couldn''t feel at ease without seeing anyone for a while. Moreover, it is faster for people in Huizhou to receive news from Jianning. Another half month passed in the blink of an eye. Song Jin went to Shun''an Trading Company every now and then to ask for news. There was no news from Jianning. On the contrary, there was a letter from the capital, and it was given to her. The letter was written by Qin Chi. The content was unremarkable. Most of them asked about the situation at home, how the parents were doing, and whether the two children were well behaved. Then, it was gone. After Song Jin saw it. I immediately wrote a reply in the business office. The content is very simple, it can be done on a piece of paper, and the main message is that everything is fine. It was originally a small matter, but it happened when shopkeeper Tao pinched the thin envelope with an extremely vivid expression. "When does Madam plan to go to Beijing?" Shopkeeper Tao couldn''t help but ask. Song Jin did not hide this, "I will go after the Double Ninth Festival and spend time with my children at home. I am afraid it will take two years before I can come back to Beijing this time." The rural examination is held every three years. In two years, Qin Chi will come back to take the provincial examination. Day by day passed. The Double Ninth Festival is finally here. Song Jin did not wait for Lao Huo and Qin Ba. The two people seemed to have disappeared, and no news came back. However, on the Double Ninth Festival, Song Jin went out with her children as promised. Qin Daya, Erlang and Sanlang heard this and wanted to follow him temporarily. Nanhu is located to the south of Hongcun. Many poets and painters from ancient to modern times wrote many poems and paintings after visiting Nanhu. For example, there is a poem in it: The boundless drizzle wets the spring mud, and you can hear the cries of birds through the mist; the willows, with their brows and peach smiles, chant while crossing the west of the painted bridge. Song Jin felt a little lost when he saw this scene. "What are you doing?!" Saburo suddenly screamed loudly, "There are bad guys! Put down my sister!" Song Jin was so shocked that he looked around. Suddenly, he saw a dilapidated carriage parked more than ten feet away. An old woman and a man dragged Qin Daya into the carriage. Qin Daya''s condition is not right either. Sanlang found out and was about to drag Qin Daya. The man slapped Saburo fiercely, and if he lifted it up forcefully, he would put it under his arm. He also slapped his **** with a big palm and cursed in a rough voice: "You brat, I told you not to go out, but you dare to secretly take your sister out to play. What will you do if you encounter bad people?!" This scolding made the surrounding people look a lot less puzzled. Suddenly, bang! Qin Erlang violently took the stone brick and smashed it down from behind the man! Immediately the man was beaten to a **** head. Saburo also broke free! He immediately pounced on the old woman like a wolf cub, "You **** old poisonous trafficker! If you dare to rob my sister, I will fight with you!" Before Saburo could pounce on him. Song Xiaodong and Song Xiaocheng also ran over. Qin Daya was rescued in two or three attempts. He subdued the old woman and the big man and pushed them to the ground. "Misunderstanding, it''s all misunderstanding. We are not human traffickers. My fifth son is proposing to marry Miss Qin. He wants to invite her to visit us." The old woman explained quickly. As soon as these words came out. Song Jin came over and immediately realized something was wrong. He took a few steps forward and stepped on the old woman''s face with his embroidered shoes. He scolded angrily: "You are making things up! Only a fool would believe that this is a treat. Who treats guests with ties? Why?" Drugging people into unconsciousness? People around me heard it. Its true! No one will admit that they are a fool. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Then Erlang supported Qin Daya, who was feeling dizzy, and called out several times without responding. "This trafficker deserves to be beheaded! Last time, my daughter from the house next door disappeared on the street." An aunt next to her scolded, "I have to send you to the official, robbing people on the street is so rampant!" Others spoke out one after another. Demand that the traffickers be brought to justice. Song Jin had the two of them **** and gagged, "Forget it, go to the town''s government office. If it''s hard work, send them to the county government office. Our county magistrate in Yixian County is a fair and honest official, and he will definitely report the case to the government." The Song brothers loaded the person into the car and sent him directly to the government. When something like this happened, the fun was interrupted. Song Jin took Qin Daya to the medical clinic to find a doctor. The twins were taken care of by Qin Qi. Qin Laoer and others rushed over after receiving the news. Qin Daya was drugged. The doctor at the medical clinic didn''t know what he smelled for her, and she woke up soon after. The fifteen-year-old girl was obviously frightened, hugging Song Jin and crying. Song Jin patted her shoulder, "It''s okay, nothing happened. The bad guy was caught and sent to the government. When you get back, the kitchen will cook you a delicious meal." Sure enough, the crying was much quieter. Xiao Liuzi hurried over in a carriage, "My boss?" "Go back first." Song Jin took Qin Daya into the car. The twins were very obedient. They were held by Qin Qi and never cried. Song Jin told her what happened after taking traditional Chinese medicine. Qin Daya was distraught after hearing this, "Then, that mother and son are indeed not human traffickers." Song Jin didn''t ask any more questions. The other party knew that her surname was Qin, so there was obviously something inside. Qin Daya clenched his fist and said angrily: "They are not human traffickers, but they are more hateful than human traffickers." Next, Song Jin learned the inside story from Qin Daya''s mouth. The mother and son were bullies in the town. They once proposed marriage to their second wife, but they couldn''t get it, so they wanted to take advantage of the bully and take her home and lock her up for a night, so that she would have no choice but to marry into his family. The girl''s innocence has been lost after she stayed out all night. Who else can she marry if she doesn''t marry him? Qin Daya was afraid and said, "This is how the eldest daughter-in-law of his family got married." "This kind of person is really hateful." Song Jin''s face turned cold. Qin Qi also said: "I have seen a lot of shameless people, but I have never seen one so blatant. The mother and son don''t seem to be very powerful people." "His family is related to the mayor." Qin Daya was in a low mood. Song Jin held her hand and comforted her: "Don''t worry, the second son of the county magistrate''s family is your eldest brother''s classmate, and he has been to the house a few times. Just wait for his family to suffer retribution." It''s just that Song Jin is curious about Qin Daya''s marriage. As early as last year, Xiao Liu showed up to Qin Da Ya. Later, she went to the capital. I don''t know if she has made a decision now. With this thought in mind, Song Jin didn''t choose this time to ask. Chapter 212 Meet at the city gate Chapter 212 Meeting at the city gate Wait until you get home. Xiao Liu hugged Qin Daya and refused to let go. Such a fierce person was so frightened that his face turned pale this time. Song Jin asked the kitchen to make a soothing soup. Then he sent it to the second room, leaving a bowl for the twins to share. Mrs. Li guarded the twins, "I didn''t expect that something like this would happen when I went out. Fortunately, you are here. If it was like usual, it would be hard to say." Qin Daya often goes to restaurants to help. Her home is not far from a restaurant, so she often goes out alone. If the mother and son had not chosen to take action today, the possibility of success would still be very high. Song Jin asked: "Have you booked a second room for Daya?" "We have agreed on a family before, but we haven''t made a decision yet. The kid from the rice shop on the street is loyal and honest, and he is a good match for Da Ya." Mrs. Li had a hidden worry in her heart. If something like this happened today, it would be hard to say whether the marriage would be successful or not. Earlier, when Qin Mingsong passed the national examination, many families came to propose marriage. Among them, there were some wealthy families who married into young wives. But Xiao Liu didn''t agree. Song Jin was very surprised, "Second Aunt didn''t respond?" "She said the door was wrong and the door was wrong." Mrs. Li usually seems to be at odds with Mr. Liu, but in fact she has no ill feelings toward her. According to Xiao Liu''s opinion, the person who won the election was his brother-in-law, not his second wife. The other party came after his brother-in-law. If Da Ya really married her, it would be fine if she could get the honor, but it would be hard to say if she couldn''t. The daughter I raised doesn''t want to be looked down upon. Later, I moved to Hongcun. Not long after Qin Chi and Song Jin came to Beijing, the family came to propose marriage. They were rejected and they came to pester them twice. Later, they almost fell out before the family gave up. I thought it was okay. Unexpectedly, after three or four months, the family still hasnt given up. No, something almost happened today. Early the next morning. Before Song Jin left the dormitory, he heard some noise and someone came to Qin''s house to apologize. The mother and son were imprisoned. According to County Magistrate Meng, **** a **** the street was a felony. Not to mention that the family had a criminal record and would be sentenced to exile at the very least. It will take several days for the matter to be settled. Boss Qin and several grown men came forward, and shopkeeper Tao and Meng Qingrui greeted each other secretly, so Song Jin stopped interfering. That night, someone knocked on the door. Song Jin was about to fall asleep when he heard Qin Qi''s voice outside the door: "Madam, Lao Huo and Qin Ba are back!" Hearing this, Song Jin quickly stood up. Wear a coat and open the door. Qin Qi came in and reported that they were back and were at Shopkeeper Tao''s place. Song Jin turned around and dressed up. He looked like he was about to go out and go there. The two of them hurried to the trading house. Lao Huo and Qin Ba, even though they had freshened up and put on clean clothes, they seemed to be so thin that they were out of shape, not to mention that they were still bound by straps. Song Jin''s throat was blocked. I feel a little uncomfortable, but its hard to say anything. The two of them were in good spirits. They were probably recovering from the disaster and were not so tense. In the situation of the two of them, there is no need to say much. We also know that the process of their escape was very difficult. At this time, the two of them were engrossed in eating. "Don''t be reincarnated like a starving ghost. Just eat a little to avoid filling your stomach." Shopkeeper Tao warned the two of them to eat in moderation. People who have been hungry for a long time should not overeat. Fortunately, the two of them also have sense of proportion. Seeing Song Jin coming in, they quickly stood up and saluted, "I''ve met Madam." "No need to be polite, just keep eating." Song Jin sat aside and motioned for them to continue eating, "We''ll discuss things later. There''s no rush now." "Thank you ma''am for your consideration." Lao Huo grinned, picked up a bowl of porridge as if drinking water, and drank it all in a few mouthfuls, "My life was saved by my wife." Putting down the bowl and chopsticks, Lao Huo gave Song Jin a thumbs up, "Madam is wise and powerful, and knows things like a god." Qin Ba nodded in agreement. I very much agree with what Lao Huo said. Song Jin was very embarrassed to be treated like this by the two of them, "That''s an exaggeration. I didn''t do anything. On the contrary, you were protecting me." "That''s wrong." Lao Huo really thought he was going to die. It was Qin Ba who suddenly appeared and saved him. When he heard that Qin Ba had appeared and it was Song Jin who asked him to come over, Lao Huo was extremely grateful to Song Jin. Lao Huo added: "We found something in Jianning, so we delayed our return." Qin Ba nodded again while eating. Wait until two people finish eating. Song Jin finally learned from Lao Huo. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! On the surface, the gangsters gathered together to make a living by fishing, but in fact, someone was secretly training sailors. Because they suspected that the Liu family was behind the scenes, the two knew that Song Jin had left Jianning, and they went deep into the tiger''s den without fear of death. While there was a massive search for the two of them outside. The two of them actually sneaked into Liu''s house. After hiding in the Liu family for several days, I found out some things. The Liu family was indeed related to the pursuit of them. This also confirmed that the people behind the private training of sailors were indeed the Liu family. When the government''s pursuit was not so strict, they were not afraid to go to the hilltop where the Liu family built the temple to investigate, and sure enough they found something fishy. The residence on the hill behind the temple. All the people coming in and out are young adults, which is very suspicious. Some people had a vicious aura about them, and Lao Huo could tell at a glance that they were people who had seen blood. It reminded him of the people who ambush him in Tunxi, it was probably them. Song Jin felt panicked. Stayed in Huizhou for another two days. Song Jin and others set off for the capital. Because of Song Jin''s insistence, she changed into men''s clothes on the way. Riding on horseback, traveling day and night. It took more than ten days, when Song Jin was approaching Shuntian Mansion, Song Jin took a carriage and entered Beijing in a low-key manner. A carriage was waiting in front of the city gate. "Hush!" Qin Qi''s voice came from outside the carriage, "Madam, the young master specially came to pick you up in front of the city gate." "ah?" Song Jin was surprised. Almost without thinking, he reached out to lift the car curtain. She happened to see Qin Chi get out of the car and walk briskly towards her. He was wearing a green-blue gown, with a neat and simple placket, and an elegant silk ribbon tied around his waist. The collar of the gown was slightly opened, revealing the white silk underneath. Upon closer inspection, the silk was embroidered with bamboo patterns, revealing Unexpectedly elegant. Occasionally, the wind blows. If you brush the ends of his hair and the hem of his clothes, he will look like the man in the painting. One can''t help but sigh. In line with Du Fus poem: Zongzhi, a handsome and handsome young man, raised his glass and looked at the blue sky, which was as bright as a jade tree before the wind. Song Jin was stunned for a moment. When she came to her senses, Qin Chi had already approached and got into the car. "Lady?" Qin Chi bent down and called with a smile on his face. Song Jin hurriedly wanted to get up to respond. She forgot that she was in the carriage and almost hit her head. However, Qin Chi reached out his hand in time to block her head. Therefore. She bumped into his palm. And his big hand withstood the impact, and the back of his hand turned red. "I, I didn''t mean to do it. Does it hurt?" Song Jin subconsciously grabbed his hand. Qin Chi shook his hand. The big hand with clear joints instantly wrapped her little hand. Chapter 213 Take off your clothes Chapter 213 Take Off Your Clothes Only when Qin Chi held this person''s hand did he finally feel at peace. Before seeing anyone, he always felt that something was missing, but of course he hid these very well. The two of them returned home in silence. As soon as Song Jin got out of the car, he saw his neighbor Mrs. Kang chatting with someone. As soon as she saw Song Jin, she immediately said hello, "Hey, Mrs. Qin is back from her hometown!" "Aunt Kang, look at your face glowing red, is there something good going on at home?" Song Jin said casually. There is no happy event in Mrs. Kang''s family, but she likes to hear people say that her face is rosy. "Look what you said, it''s not like that. On the contrary, Mrs. Qin is running around on the road. She looks like she has lost weight. She needs to buy something good these days." "Yes, please remember." Song Jin followed Qin Chi back. To outsiders, the two couples looked like an ordinary couple, but they were unusual. At least the family should have some savings. Otherwise, we cant afford to keep slaves. Song Jin went back and divided some of the specialties he brought from Huizhou to his neighbors. This was an excuse to go back to my hometown before everything was over. Went back to the dormitory. Song Jin changed out of her clothes, took a shower, and ate something, then sat down at the coffee table and drank the tea brewed by Qin Chi. At this time, Qin Chi had already heard the report from Lao Huo and Qin Ba, and knew a lot about the affairs of Jianning Mansion, but he issued a silence order and did not allow anyone to mention it again. "I have a question." Song Jin raised the corners of his mouth slightly, looked at Qin Chi with soft eyebrows, and gently put down the tea bowl in his hand. Qin Chi also put down the tea bowl and said calmly: "Ask me, madam, I will tell you everything I know." "Why does Jianjiang say it''s training sailors instead of water bandits?" Song Jin was not looking for trouble, he really had this question. Qin Chi knew that she was from a girl''s family and was not familiar with some things in the court. "Lao Huo is a soldier who retired from the army. When he first joined the army, he stayed in the Navy in Chaohu and saw how the Navy trained soldiers. As for Lao Huo, who is obviously a sailor, why did he transfer to the northwest? It''s just that he suffers from seasickness. A soldier gets seasick. That basically has nothing to do with the Navy. Qin Chi said softly: "I have an immature guess. Do you want to hear it?" "Say." Song Jin was very calm. Qin Chi''s eyes circled around her face, "Your family was probably sent out to sea. Jianning is close to Fuzhou. After Fuzhou is the East China Sea. The big ship that took your family away escaped into the East China Sea. There are many large and small islands in the East China Sea. "If the Liu family did it, would it be on an island near Fuzhou?" Song Jin had not thought about this problem. Compared to the years Qin Chi spent searching. In her previous life, she had been looking for him for more than ten years. If they were sent to an isolated island, no matter how hard they searched, it would be difficult to find anyone. "Madam, you can no longer get involved in this case." Qin Chi warned in a solemn tone, "Because the force behind the scenes is far more powerful than I expected. A little carelessness may lead to death." "What about you?" Song Jin asked back. Qin Chi smiled calmly, "I won''t get involved, at least not on the surface." The people behind it have a huge network of connections. Before the investigation is clear, Qin Chi will definitely stay put. Song Jin just looked at him steadily. Qin Chi said helplessly: "I will help you find out secretly. Madam must not do anything unnecessary." "Then it should be fine if I do business normally, right?" Song Jin knew that he couldn''t pry openly. The next business will be directed to the south of Huizhou. Now that you''ve decided, you can''t just sit at home and wait all day. So Song Jin said again: "Ms. sir, I want to leave for two years." "Where are you going?" Qin Chi''s heart skipped a beat. Song Jin lowered his eyes and chuckled: "I want to expand my business, so it''s normal to travel all over the country. The only trouble is that I have to trouble my husband to cover up for me." There was scrutiny in Qin Chi''s eyes. Song Jin sighed softly again: "I promise I won''t do anything random, it''s just business. I don''t have the ability to do anything I want to do." Xing Luns affairs are not over yet. Song Jin relied on Qin Chi for most things. Originally, she thought she was developing well and very quickly. Only when she went to Jianning did she realize how weak she was. Qin Chi was silent. After a long while, he said: "Let me think about it." "Well, sir, think about it carefully." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin gave Qin Chi enough time to think about it. Another man would have refused on the spot. Respectable men generally will not allow their wives to show their faces outside and do business. It''s not normal for two people to get married. When they first got along, they didn''t bother each other and were in a tacit understanding. Later, after giving birth to a child, the two became more and more involved. In fact, some of the current situation was deliberately caused by Qin Chi. But Qin Chi knew it very well. Song Jin may have feelings for him, but not much. Searching for her family took up most of her mind, and the other half was also focused on her children. Dont you see that your wife has just come back and is thinking about leaving home? Oh! Qin Chi pulled Song Jin up. Pushed to the bed, he began to undress and take off his belt, "Before I promise my wife, I''d better rest first." Go to bed and lower the bed curtains. Blocked the outside light. Song Jin was keenly aware that Qin Chi was in a bad mood at this time, like a volcano that was suppressing and about to explode at any time, so she wisely shut up. It''s just broad daylight, why should I rest? She was the only one to rest, so did he need to undress? Time flies, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye. In two years, Song Jin put on men''s clothes and left Beijing, taking brothers Song Xiaodong, Qin Qi and Qin Ba with him? , went to a certain state capital to meet with Xing Lun. Xing Lun ran into some trouble there. He is being hunted down by a branch of the Song family over there. Song Jin used to solve the problem with thunderous means. He even said that he changed his previous gentleness and directly killed the steward who hired the murderer behind the scenes and threw him into the river. She was standing nearby. Watch him sink to the bottom of the river. Then Xing Lun took action and recovered the money and business belonging to the direct descendants. Then go to the next house. Going down one by one, there may be trouble ahead. Gradually, the reception becomes much smoother, probably because more people died. Of course, Song Jin did not experience danger, and he was also injured. Fortunately, Qin Chi was secretly taken care of and his life was not in danger. In two years. Song Jin traveled all over the country. The power behind him is expanding step by step. With a unique vision in his previous life, his business was expanding step by step. After settling all the side affairs, Song Jin began to focus on the Zhu family of Shanxi merchants. In the end, the Zhu family lost a lot of money and could only give Song Jin a merchant ship as compensation. Chapter 214 Song Jins gift Chapter 214 Song Jins Gift The Zhu family is also unlucky. Song Jin has been thinking about her, but he still doesn''t know how he offended her. And a fleet does not refer to one or two large ships. There were a total of twenty-five ships, including the sailors at the helm. Knowing that the Zhu family has three fleets at sea, it is still very tiring. Song Jin is not afraid of betrayal by these people. Because they are all people who signed the contract of sale. As long as you master the other party''s contract of betrayal, you don''t have to worry about people betraying you easily. In just two years, Song Jin has made a great name in the business world. Many people are trying to trace her origins. However, her whereabouts are hidden and impossible to trace. Including the people around her, all have false identities and names to the outside world. Qin Chi in the capital. After Song Jin left Beijing, he changed his past low-key style and no longer hid his talents. He graduated from the Imperial College in just two years. The great Confucian who was responsible for teaching in the Imperial College praised him repeatedly, which made him famous. He was so outstanding that he surpassed a group of scholars as a mere scholar. Successfully entered the eyes of many powerful and senior officials in the capital. Among them, including the emperor. Among them, there are many people who want to recruit Qin Chi. Qin Chi pushed them all. This will inevitably offend some narrow-minded people, who feel that Qin Chi is relying on his talent and arrogance. He wants to teach him a lesson, but Qin Chi avoids him. Even the people who wanted to harm him didn''t get any relief. It''s just very evil. "What have you been doing lately, madam?" Qin Chi returned home and asked a routine question. As if he had expected it, Lao Li Tou reported: "My wife is still active in the waters of Fuzhou." Qin Chi asked again: "Have you encountered any problems?" Old Li Toule said: "I am doing business with someone, and it seems that I am doing well. I am much better than Old Ao. I can make more money in one year than he worked hard in ten years." Qin Chi nodded coldly. Old Li Tou continued: "Madam asked someone to send you a box of gifts, some of which are foreign goods." "Bring it up." Qin Chi said. Lao Li went to move a big box. A box of gadgets were all fresh goods. Song Jin specially collected them and gave them to Qin Chi when he was out. Qin Chi drove Lao Li Tou out. He began to look at Song Jin''s gifts in a good mood. outside the house. Old Man Hong looked at Old Li Tou mockingly, "Did you get kicked out by the Young Master?" "Go, what are you talking about?" Old Li Tou didn''t like to hear this, "Young Master is anxious to see Madam''s gift." "It''s not like we were kicked out." Old man Hong knew that this old guy was greedy for those things, "Don''t talk about you, some of the things are so rare and wonderful that I have seen them for the first time. Sometimes I can''t help but suspect that the lady is not only active in the waters of Fuzhou, but also probably Went further afield. "It''s true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers." Old Li Tou sat down in front of Old Man Hong and snatched away his teapot. "The sea is not so peaceful, and there are unpredictable storms." The two have lived for half their lives, and they have to admire Song Jin''s courage. Women do not give way to men. Song Jin, who was being missed, ran into trouble at this time. You can do business in this area without any hindrance, which naturally opens up all kinds of relationships. No one was looking for trouble directly. But I can''t stand someone who uses devious methods. Song Jin originally negotiated with a foreign businessman from the Ryukyu Kingdom for a batch of valuable spices and medicinal materials, such as cream, agarwood, borneol, pearls, tortoiseshell, etc. However, on the day of the transaction, someone snatched the goods away at a high price midway. Taking it away means that Song Jin has no ability. However, the other party dared not even refund the deposit. Judging from the news, it was the Jianning Liu family who stole the Song brocade goods. "Boss, how should we resolve this matter?" Xing Lun asked Song Jin softly. Zhou Wei on the side remained silent. In the past, his eyes were limited to Huizhou Prefecture, and he didn''t know what the outside world was like. He also knew that the brothers he grew up with were highly appreciated by his employer, but in fact, he felt a little bit behind. But during this time with Song Jin, he learned a lot. Xing Lun followed his boss around a certain matter and handled it with ease. Ask yourself, he wouldn''t have the confidence to do it. This made his little sense of gap gradually disappear, and he started to study seriously. Song Jin stood at the bow of the boat. The sea breeze is hunting, and the clothes and hair are flying. Song Jin asked: "Alun, how do you want to deal with it? Do you have any ideas?" "It seems stingy for us to make a fuss about this matter, but we can''t ignore it. We can secretly spread the news. The Liu family has broken the rules first. No one will say a few words about what we do in the future. And that Ryukyu country. Businessmen, if you dont keep your word, we should also remind other colleagues. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! What Xing Lun did was unusual. The businessman broke the rules. No one did anything to them at first. But it''s very scary. This is somewhat similar to a broken trust list. If anyone does business with them, they will be on guard against them. In fact, to put it bluntly, no one will take a newcomer seriously if he has no background. People also care about whether your reputation is good or bad. If people don''t care, this move is not painful. Song Jin''s caravan came here. The foundation is still shallow, so naturally we try to avoid conflicts with the locals. "If we don''t do this to scare the monkeys, the situation we finally opened up will be destroyed in one day. From now on, everyone will know that we are soft persimmons and easy to manipulate." Song Jin looked cold. This really **** her off. Isn''t it good to do business in a friendly manner? He must come to cause trouble for her. Song Jin immediately said: "Ah Wei, you and Xiaocheng gave a generous gift to General Shen Shen, and then presented the signed compensation contract, saying that this compensation was voluntarily donated by us to the Dinghaiwei Institute." Zhou Wei was surprised, "Can this be done?" "Who wouldn''t like the money that comes to your door? I believe Shen Shen will like it." Song Jin did not say that the military pay allocated by the court to the garrison had not yet come. Now is the time when Shen Shen will be short of money, plus they happen to know each other, so he would be a fool not to leave this connection. Zhou Wei''s temperament is the most suitable for being a soldier, not to mention that he has a clear conscience about this matter and puts his plans on the table. General Shen will not refuse even if he sees anything. After all, he only needed to send a few soldiers to find the Ryukyu businessman to demand reasonable compensation, and it was not a bad thing. No one can fault it. The court found out that there was no problem. This is money falling from the sky. You can pick it up by bending down. Song Jin gave Zhou Wei a few words of advice. Zhou Wei took Song Xiaocheng with gifts and hurriedly set off to the guardhouse. Xing Lun watched his good brother leave with worry, "If my boss has someone from the Liu family in the guardhouse...will it be detrimental to Ah Wei?" "This time he is looking for trouble with the Ryukyu businessman, not the Liu family. I know what you are worried about, but people always have to grow independently." Song Jin hopes that Zhou Wei can grow up as soon as possible until he can take charge of his own business. The time agreed with Qin Chi is coming soon. Before the provincial examination. Song Jin is about to go back. This is her last business trip, and she will not go with the ship again next time. Chapter 215 Dinghaiwei Chapter 215 Dinghaiwei The caravan approaches the dock. Of course not doing nothing. When the ship docked, merchants came up to them for the goods on their ship. Yesterday, the deal that Song Jin had negotiated with a businessman from the Ryukyu Kingdom suddenly went wrong. The other party does not keep their word. Song Jin couldn''t force others to trade, but the goods on her ship still had to be shipped out. "Alun, if this news spreads, it won''t be long before customers come to visit." There are mainly silk and porcelain on board. In addition, there are Huizhou lacquerware, tea, Huizhou ink and umbrellas. Sold a batch yesterday. I wanted to exchange the rest for a batch of agate, alfalfa, pepper, etc. The news is spreading, waiting for others to replace it. As a result, he was intercepted by the Liu family, but since they were doing serious business, no one could say anything. Song Jin called Qin Ba again, "Go and find out what the Liu family is doing in Fuzhou?" Finished these instructions. Found that Qin Ba didn''t move. Song Jin asked in confusion: "What''s wrong?" "There are people watching, not us." Qin Ba touched his nose and said sheepishly, "Young master said, let us not pay attention to these things." Song Jin was in a daze. Yes, I promised Qin Chi not to investigate. Since someone is watching, forget it. Song Jin added: "I want to know the movements of the Liu family. I don''t need to pry for secrets. I just use normal business methods. I just thought, I can''t be robbed in vain. I will **** it back if I have the chance." Qin Ba agreed now. Zhou Wei, who went to visit General Shen that day, came back. Went to Dinghai Guards Station. Among those who returned, Song Xiaocheng was missing. Song Xiaodong knew it immediately and asked nervously: "Where is my brother? Why hasn''t he come back?" Song Jin was looking through the ledger. After receiving the news, he hurriedly came out. Zhou Wei looked strange when he saw him. He bowed to Song Jin and said, "I''ve met my boss. This trip is going smoothly. However, there is no problem with General Shen, but it''s Governor Wang who wants to see you." "Meet me?" Song Jin was surprised, "I don''t know him." The governor is considered the biggest official here. How could she possibly know her as a small businessman? Song Jin looked at Zhou Wei, "Tell me in detail, what''s going on in the small town?" "Song Xiaocheng was attracted by General Shen, and he stayed and wanted him to serve as a soldier. He originally said he would ask you about this, but the General asked him to practice with those soldiers first, and wait until you come over. Say it again. Zhou Wei didn''t know what to say. For Song Xiaocheng, this is an opportunity and a good thing. But Song Xiaocheng was Song Jin''s subordinate. This matter must be approved by Song Jin before it can be accomplished. Song Jin agreed to go. Immediately, he and Zhou Wei went straight to Dinghai Guards Station. Xing Lun and Song Xiaodong were left to guard the fleet. The governor has a mansion, but the new governor Wang, who has just taken office, is diligent, and the guard office is vigorously developing the navy. It''s a busy time, so it''s not surprising that people are in the health center. When Song Jin passed by. Only after notification and inspection can you enter the health center. The sharp weapons you were carrying had to be taken off first, and the accompanying Zhou Wei, Qin Qi and others were also stopped at the door. Governor Wang wants to see Song Jin alone. Song Jin was led into the house. Suddenly I saw a majestic old man with wise and upright eyes, "Here you come?" "Song Huaijin, a grassroots citizen, pays homage to the governor." Song Jin knelt down and saluted. People without official status will kneel down and worship when they see an official. Song Jin was not uncomfortable with this. And Song Huaijin was the name Song Jin used when walking outside. Governor Wang said, "Get up and find a seat to sit on." Very informal. Song Jin was not polite and just found a chair to sit down. Then someone brought tea. Governor Wang asked: "Are you a Huizhou merchant? You are so brave to dare to come here at such a young age. Haven''t you heard that pirates are rampant in this area? Even some veterans dare not come here easily." "The common people heard that your Excellency came here to be the governor, so they dared to take the risk to come here to do business, because the common people believe that with your ability, the bandits will be put down in a short time." Song Jin said in a sincere tone. After hearing this, Governor Wang looked at her again. After living for more than fifty years, how could he not see the fishy nature of Song Jin? The body is too weak. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Either she is born with a defect, or she is pretending to be a man. The Adam''s apple is covered with a collar. Women disguised as men are more likely to do so. It''s not that he insisted on exposing this matter, "Do you know why I asked you to come here?" "The common people don''t know, please let me know." Song Jin said respectfully. Governor Wang said: "The guard station needs a batch of medicinal materials. Do you have them on the ship?" Song Jin knew why he asked this question. Because the first two times he came here, Song Jin would buy local medicinal materials and sell some medicinal materials that were lacking here. It was obvious that he was also in the medicinal materials business. Song Jin''s fleet had a large number of goods and was miscellaneous. Goods from the south were transferred to the north, and then goods from the north were transferred to the south. Once you come back, you will make a lot of money. Song Jin had no reason to refuse. If you want to get official protection, you can''t refuse Governor Wang''s request, otherwise, all the previous efforts will be in vain. Song Jin responded immediately, "There is still a batch of medicinal materials in the ship. Do you want it now? If it is not enough, you can make a list and we will try our best to get it for you next time." Governor Wang was very satisfied. It is really rare to see someone so young and so knowledgeable. "Sure, remember to use good medicinal materials." Governor Wang was able to find the Jifang fleet precisely because he knew that the medicinal materials sold by this fleet were of good quality. "The price will not be short for you. Just calculate it according to the market price." "Thank you for your consideration." Song Jin breathed a sigh of relief. She wanted to take advantage of this, but she also didn''t want to be taken advantage of. Many businessmen want to do business with officials, but if they are not careful, they can easily be cheated. The reason is that payment for goods is often not received. When Song Jin saw Governor Wang serving tea to see off the guests, he wisely stood up and left. Then someone sent it out. I saw a soldier wearing armor outside, and next to him stood Song Xiaocheng. When Song Xiaocheng saw Song Jin coming out, his eyes lit up and he stepped forward with a few strides. He was about to say something when Song Jin raised his hand to stop him. Song Jin first paid a visit to the soldier, "The common people have seen General Shen Shen." "It''s you." Shen Shen will meet Song Jin. That time, while on patrol at sea, the fleet was intercepted by a pirate group. When the two sides started fighting, Shen Shen would come with his men. I saw that Song Jin was very weak at that time. He saw her shoot and kill several pirates in succession, which left a deep impression on him. The two exchanged some pleasantries. Shen Shenjiang said: "Song Xiaocheng is not bad. He is a good young man who can serve as a soldier. I want to join Dinghaiwei. You are his former master. What do you mean?" Song Jin did not make a decision for Song Xiaocheng, but asked one after another: "Sir General, can ordinary people chat with him in private for a while?" "Okay." Shen Shen will cherish talents. I really like Song Xiaocheng. The newly built Dinghaiwei indeed needs manpower. Chapter 216 I cant trust you Chapter 216 I cant trust you Song Jin took Song Xiaocheng farther away. "Young patriarch, I..." Song Xiaocheng wanted to say something, but Song Jin stopped him. Song Jin said: "I am talking to you alone, not to decide anything for you, but to ask you, do you really want to stay as a soldier?" Song Xiaocheng looked hesitant. The look on his face was that he wanted to stay, but there was something he couldn''t let go of. Song Jin added: "Being a soldier is not child''s play. You may gain a future, but you have to risk your life." Don''t talk about the matter of making a marquis, because one general will make thousands of bones wither. Song Jin didn''t want him to become a soldier. Song Xiaocheng lowered his head, "Young Patriarch, I want to stay, but the old Patriarch asked me to listen to you." "The future is yours, you decide it yourself." Song Jin knew what he was hesitating about, "No matter what choice you make, I will support you, and your brother means the same thing." Although Song Xiaocheng was moved, he still made up his mind to stay, "When I get ahead in the future, I can become your backer." "Okay! Then we''ll wait." Song Jin smiled and handed him a few banknotes. After a few words of instruction, he led the others out of the guardhouse. Song Xiaocheng watched them leave. He didn''t say he chose to stay, but he also wanted to help Song Jin find his family. As long as you become a member of the navy, you will have more avenues to explore in the future. Just got back to the dock. There was actually a bit of excitement in front of the docking location rented by the Song family cargo ship. It was the Ryukyu businessman who had negotiated with them who came up to visit Song Jin, but was intercepted by Xing Lun''s people. It was a huge blow to the opponent. Song Jin dismounted and threw the whip to Qin Qi, "What happened? It''s so lively?" "Wow, Boss Song, you are back!" When the pudgy Ryukyu businessman saw Song Jin, he felt like he was seeing a savior, "It''s not that I didn''t want to sell that batch of goods. It''s because the Liu family is too overbearing and they insist on forcing me to sell. Boss Song, it''s really not me." Willing..." There are often traders from the Ryukyu Kingdom in Fuzhou. They can come to Daxia because they are a vassal state of Daxia. Song Jin had no other reaction. She just slightly curled her lips, appearing to be smiling, but actually looking at him indifferently. The businessman talked a lot, but when he saw that she still didn''t respond, he looked left and right, then came closer to Song Jin, and said mysteriously: "I also have a batch of goods hidden, better ones, I can give them to you, there are rare treasures "I can''t trust you." Song Jin''s straightforward expression made the man''s smile freeze. When he turned to leave, Song Jin motioned for Xing Lun to pick him up. Then, the businessman suffered from Song Jin''s indifference and was afraid of the officers and soldiers. Xing Lun became the breakthrough point. The man apologized to Xing Lun, gave him gifts, and stuffed a handful of banknotes. Xing Lun pretended to be embarrassed and didn''t want to accept it. After being persuaded by the other party, he reluctantly accepted it, and then he was dragged to drink. While drinking, we talked about business. The original price was cut in half by the black-hearted Xing Lun. "I know that Mr. Yoshikawa made half of the price." Xing Lun poured him a glass of wine, "In our Daxia Dynasty, the most important thing in doing business is integrity. If you don''t have faith, you won''t stand. If you break the rules first, If you want me to help persuade my boss, you must show some sincerity." Yoshikawa said with a bitter face: "It''s a shame, I''m a loser. You have to give me the goods on your ship." "Okay, I''ll give you the rest. If you don''t go back on your word, I''ll keep it for you." Xing Lun asked about the Liu family again. As Yoshikawa said, the Liu family did get the goods through half inducement and half threat. However, before leaving, Yoshikawa told Xing Lun that they should not offend the Liu family, "I found that any businessman who provoked his family either never came back to Fuzhou or was robbed and killed by pirates." Xing Lun was thoughtful. Wait until Yoshikawa leaves. Xing Lun returned to the ship. After seeing Song Jin, he smiled and reported: "My boss, I''m lucky to have lived up to my command." "Thank you for your hard work." This is not the first time that the two of them have cooperated. Xing Lun mentioned Yoshikawas reminder to Song Jin. Song Jin calmly expressed that he understood. This matter had been expected for a long time, and she had already guessed in her mind. Since ancient times, the Liu family has been a family of soldiers and bandits. It is not surprising that the Liu family secretly trains sailors. It is not surprising that they become pirates and rob merchant ships. This can not only achieve the purpose of sea training but also make a fortune. The next day. Xing Lun went to trade with Yoshikawa. Zhou Wei sent the medicinal materials to the health center. Song Xiaodong proposed to go with Zhou Wei and brought a large baggage for his brother. Song Jin stayed on the ship. I walked around each ship and personally asked about supplies. Those who were not fully prepared were asked to go as soon as possible, and they were notified of their departure tomorrow morning. The dusk is vast and the sea breeze is rustling. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! There are many cargo ships at the dock, and the porters are still busy. Lights flickered on the deck. Song Jin stood on the bow deck and watched Xing Lun and others direct the workers to load boxes of goods onto the ship. "Be gentle. This is valuable goods. If you drop it, it will be damaged. No one can afford to pay for it." Xing Lun reminded loudly. Qin Ba complained, "He is so high-profile, isn''t he afraid of being noticed by thieves?" "Are you stupid?" Qin Qi was speechless. Which merchant doesn''t shout like this several times when putting goods on board? This is for the people carrying it to pay attention to. There may not be anything valuable inside the box. After all the goods were put on the ship and there were no mistakes, Xing Lun handed the cargo list to Song Jin for review. When Song Jin saw the number, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Did that guy really save something?" "The goods are on another ship. Nominally they belong to the foreign businessmen who came with him, but in fact they belong to his family." Xing Lun looked like he had learned something, "Boss, this guy is really a thief in business. He is the master behind the scenes, yet he insists on telling the public that there are two companies. We asked which one at that time, and the price was 20% higher than his. , at that time I thought he was really giving us a bargain. Song Jin also didn''t expect it, "We will use this trick next time." Use one company to raise the price? You can learn it. This time Song Jin can make Yoshikawa afraid. The big reason is to borrow the power of General Shen. Suddenly there was a noise from the shore. There was a group of men in well-dressed clothes, with knives at their waists and torches in their hands, searching for someone on the dock. Song Jin originally wanted to enter the cabin. When he saw this change, he stood on the bow of the ship and watched in surprise. Remove the large planks on the bow and shore. It is also difficult for outsiders to get ashore. Therefore, there were many people standing on the bow of the ship watching. There are some porters on the dock, as well as people on other ships. Those people stop and check people when they see them. He looks like he is very difficult to mess with. Song Jin ordered: "Let the crew members stay on board and do not disembark privately." "Yes, I''ll do it right away." Xing Lun quickly went to tell someone to inform him. Qin Ba couldn''t sit still, "Do you want me to go find out what''s going on?" "You can go if you want." Song Jin was also curious. Qin Ba felt happy. Step ashore on a rope as thick as your arm. This move surprised the crew. Chapter 217 Confronting the Liu family Chapter 217 Confronting the Liu Family Almost all the crew members of this fleet know that the owner has four masters, three men and one woman. Two people''s surnames are Qin and two people''s surnames are Song. He was brave and fearless when killing bandits and pirates, one against a hundred. After a while, Qin Ba came back. Qin Badao: "Those people on the shore are the guardians of the Liu family. This time someone stole valuable things from the second master of the Liu family, and they are chasing the thief everywhere." "Is it the Liu family again?" Song Jin raised his eyebrows and then said thoughtfully, "It might not be peaceful here." He was thinking, should we set off tonight? But if you leave now. On the contrary, they became suspicious. It''s almost time, let everyone go back and rest, and we will start early tomorrow. Song Jin turned around and entered the cabin. Return to your single room. Just opened the door. In addition to the familiar woody scent, the air is not filled with the smell of sea salt and sweat, but a strange and subtle smell. Song Jin paused slightly and frowned. His eyes quickly swept across the small and dim space. Everything seemed normal, the bed was neatly made, and the clothes were in order. Rapid footsteps suddenly sounded outside. The short sword in Song Jin''s hand was already out of its sheath. "Boss, the Liu family wanted to search the ship, but our people stopped them." Zhou Wei''s voice came over urgently. Song Jin said: "I understand." A curtain on the window sill fluttered silently in the moonlight. Song Jin took a deep breath, but her tense body did not relax. She quietly stepped back towards the door. "come out!" Song Jin suddenly became alert and said, "I smell the blood on you." "Ma''am, it''s me." A familiar yet unfamiliar voice. From the curtain on the window sill, a man appeared. Song Jin used the dim light and shadow to see the person who appeared, wearing tight-fitting night clothes, with a somewhat familiar face. "Who are you?" Song Jin asked. Qin Yi was silent for a moment, and then he spoke: "My subordinate is Qin Yi, and I have been ordered to come here to do something." Song Jin didn''t respond. Then she turned to the door and said, "Ah Qi, come in." Qin Qi lives opposite Song Jin. As soon as you hear the sound, come over immediately. Before entering, he instantly noticed that there were other people in the room, and when he was about to block Song Jin, Qin Yi spoke, "Xiao Qi, it''s me." "Boss?" Qin Qi was surprised. Song Jin also knew what he said. The person opposite was indeed Qin Yi. Qin Yi usually stayed by Qin Chi''s side, but Song Jin saw him only a handful of times. Qin Yi took off a small bundle from his body and handed it to Qin Qi, "This is what the master wants. Remember to take it back." Qin Qi took it. It looked like Qin Yi was leaving. Song Jin said: "Don''t talk about other things for now, Ah Qi, bandage his wound first. If the blood continues to flow, he will die. As for the people outside, I will go and send them away." After saying that, she left the room. Qin Yi and Qin Qi looked at each other. Qin Qi took out the hemostatic medicine he carried with him, and while bandaging Qin Yi, he asked doubtfully: "Why did you hide in Madam''s room?" "I thought this was Xiaoba''s." Qin Yi didn''t want to say that he was in the wrong place. Qin Ba''s room is next door. Fortunately, Qin Yi''s injury was not serious. After the hemostatic bandage, there was no major problem. Song Jin walked out of the cabin. Then they saw Xing Lun and Zhou Wei leading people on the deck to block more than a dozen guards from the Liu family. The tense confrontation between the two sides was as close as possible to using a knife. Not only them, but other cargo ships also refused the Liu family to board the ship for search. "Does the Liu family really think of themselves as characters, or do they think they can cover the sky with just one hand?" Song Jin coldly swept away the people who wanted to break into the Liu family, and said loudly: "The Liu family said it was a search, didn''t they want to take the opportunity to check the cargo on the ship, and then sell the information to the pirates?" "You''re talking nonsense! Stop spouting nonsense here." The head nurse of the Liu family was full of evil aura and stared at Song Jin with a fierce look. Another person might be really scared. Who is Song Jin? If you are afraid of death, you will not come to run the boat. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin glanced around and saw that there were many people watching. She continued loudly: "I have heard long ago that any merchant who doesn''t deal with you will most likely be robbed and killed by pirates. Humph, wait for my family If you leave, if you encounter pirates, it will definitely be the news that your Liu family has sold." As soon as these words came out. There was an uproar. There were people whispering around, pointing at the Liu family''s nursing home, and their eyes were very dark. "Wow! So that''s it." "I''ve heard this news too." "Everyone is spreading rumors behind their backs, but no one dares to say it openly. Whose family does this boat belong to? You are so courageous that you are not afraid of the Liu family." "Which family is the Liu family? I haven''t heard of a powerful Liu family in Fuzhou." "There is no powerful one in Fuzhou, but there is one in Jianning. I heard that the words of the Liu family there are more effective than the imperial edict." This is heartbreaking! The Liu family''s nursing staff were all covered in cold sweat. If such rumors spread, the Liu family might be accused of treason. However, the surrounding discussions were one after another, without concealment, and it was obvious that someone was deliberately guiding them. Xing Lun stood up and said: "This ship has always been guarded. No thieves will sneak on board. If you want to search the Liu family, you should go elsewhere. We sympathize with you for losing your things. But this ship is equivalent to our home. Its impossible to let outsiders search your home, unless the government comes forward. "that is!" "When officers and soldiers came to search, we immediately cooperated, but who are you?" "The Liu family is not really colluding with pirates, is it?" "You are so domineering, you don''t care about Daxia''s laws at all." This alarming rumor has begun to circulate again. There are rows of cargo ships at the pier. Its not just Song Jins familys fleet. Generally, such a fleet will only rent a few ship slots for unloading and loading, and they will dock in turns. Most ships park a hundred feet away from the dock and choose a location to anchor. The boat where Song Jin lived occupied the most remote docking position. But there was quite a bit of action going on around here. "What''s going on?" Several people hurried over from a distance. The person walking in front was none other than the head of the Liu family who was supposed to be in Jianning Mansion. Song Jin''s pupils narrowed. If this person comes to Fuzhou in person, it may not be easy. Thinking of the baggage Qin Yi left behind just now, he said there was something Qin Chi wanted in it. Isn''t it evidence of the Liu family''s crimes? If this is the case, no wonder the Liu family went crazy and couldn''t even care about their dignity. The head of the Liu family stood on the shore and looked at the people on the bow of the ship, "Is it Boss Song''s cargo ship?" Song Jin calmly pushed aside the people in front of him and walked in front of Xing Lun and others. The man stood on the bow of the boat, his back straight. Standing face to face, with a slight smile on his lips, he looked quite handsome and charming like a young man. "My friend, Song Huaijin, has always heard of Master Liu''s name, so I am lucky enough to meet him today." Song Jin was separated by the sea two or three feet away. Make eye contact with people on the shore. Chapter 218 Evidence of the Liu familys crimes Chapter 218 Evidence of the Liu Familys Crime "Boss Song, don''t you give me some face?" The head of the Liu family looked at the young man standing on the bow of the boat, and then looked around, "I, Liu, owe you a favor this time, how about it?" "Not really." Song Jin acted a bit young and energetic, "The noble Lord of the Liu family is so forgetful. He just robbed a batch of my goods, another thief incident occurred, and he came to search my ship. Could it be that he directed and acted in it?" Are you trying to get in trouble with me? " "Snatching goods?" The head of the Liu family looked at the big ship where Song Jin was, "Is this a misunderstanding?" He glanced at the henchmen beside him. The confidant''s eyes flickered, and he walked past the Liu family leader and whispered: "The second master bought a batch of goods from Ryukyu merchants before, and it is said that they are going to be sold to the Jifang caravan." The head of the Liu family felt angry in his heart. The second room has been acting more and more recklessly recently. Because the Liu family stole other people''s business first. It''s normal for people not to allow them to search. However, outside the Liu family will not admit anything. "In business, there will inevitably be competition. As long as you don''t steal or rob, and you don''t break the law, it doesn''t count as a mistake. You are still young, and things like this are very common in the business world." "I''ve learned a lesson, Master Liu." Song Jin handed over to the head of the Liu family without hesitation. After the etiquette was completed, she said tepidly: "You must have integrity. Why should I search my own ship for the Liu family?" "What do you want?" Leader Liu asked again. Song Jin continued: "Unless the government comes to search, we will cooperate unconditionally." You really cant go wrong with this! The other merchants and crew members immediately cheered. "good!" "Well said!" "That''s what we mean too. Why should we search just when we say it?" "We are businessmen, aren''t the Liu family?" As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of boos. The head of the Liu family''s face turned blue and white. At this moment, a man dressed as a butler hurriedly came to the head of the Liu family and whispered a few words. While talking, he glanced at Song Jin. Song Jin had reason to guess. The other person is talking about himself. "Are you sure that this person named Song Huaijin is related to Wang Yongquan?" The head of the Liu family looked even worse. The new governor Wang is actually related to the Jifang fleet. The steward said: "General Shen Shen came forward for them. The Ryukyu businessman named Yoshikawa sold another shipment of goods to Boss Song at half the original price." The head of the Liu family looked at Song Jin critically. At this time, another middle-aged man in rich clothes came over and said arrogantly: "Brother, why are you talking to them so much nonsense? Just search them. If you keep waiting like this, aren''t you letting the other party escape?" "Shut up." The head of the Liu family turned around and glared at him. The discussion was on Song Jin''s side, and Song Jin was backed by Governor Wang. It was their fault for breaking in. When Song Jin goes to the Yamen to report to the official, the Liu family will not be in a good position. No one knows how the head of the Liu family is feeling at the moment. What the Liu family did behind the scenes could be revealed enough to confiscate the family and exterminate the family. The head of the Liu family gritted his teeth and said: "The lost things are too important and must be found. Are you sure that the person disappeared at the dock?" "People are chased here and disappeared." Liu Erye said eagerly. Snap! The head of the Liu family slapped him in the face and said with stern eyes: "You bastard! I will settle the score with you after this matter is settled." The head of the Liu family turned around and left. Went in a hurry. Mr. Liu was stunned after being beaten, and when he regained consciousness, he quickly chased after him. On the contrary, the man who looked like a housekeeper and the guards of the Liu family did not evacuate, but stood guard in front of each ship. This means that the thief will not stop until he is guarded. Looking at the entire dock, there are Liu family members guarding them at regular intervals. Even without asking, you can guess that the various exits of the dock must be blocked by the Liu family. Song Jin glanced at the surrounding sea again. There are stars in the distance, twinkling and twinkling, and each light represents a fishing boat. The Liu family has used so many fishing boats and mobilized so many people in such a short period of time. Just thinking about it will tell you that it is not easy. The Liu family was probably mobilizing hidden forces at sea to intercept ships leaving the port. It won''t work if we don''t search for it. The fishing boats almost surrounded the pier. If they don''t get out of the way. The cargo ship is really inseparable, unless it collides directly with it, and if there is a murder, it will lead to a lawsuit. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin looked solemn, turned around and led people into the cabin, "A businessman supports so many people, how come no one thinks there is a problem." "Even if everyone knows there is a problem, they won''t openly say it outside." Xing Lun answered. Zhou Wei also said: "I wonder what the Liu family has lost. It seems important. Even the head of the family has come forward. Jianning is not close to here." "He appeared so quickly. He is probably in Fuzhou. He hid his whereabouts earlier. He might be doing something." Qin Ba touched his chin and thought about this possibility secretly. Xing Lun said again: "I don''t know who the person being hunted is and what he stole, which made the Liu family go to war like this." Qin Ba never returned to his room. It is not known yet that the person is Qin Yi. The three of them gathered together to chat about this matter, making various speculations. Song Jin listened. He went back to his private room. Sure enough, Qin Qi and Qin Yi were still waiting for her. The things in the room have been cleaned up, and the smell of blood has almost disappeared, but there is still some medicinal smell. Song Jin took out some pepper to use as incense. Use the scent of pepper to mask the previous smell. Qin Yiyi wanted to say, Madam is really extravagant. Pepper is such an expensive thing, but it is used like this. He had heard earlier that some ministers used pepper to smoke their clothes, but now that he saw Song Jin using it like this, he also felt pain in his heart. You should know that a pound of pepper costs ten to twenty taels of silver. Song Jin asked: "The Liu family has made such a big move today. If I mention it to Governor Wang or Shen Shen, will they suspect that they have gone to the Liu family?" "There are many **** bureaus in Jianning and Fuzhou, and the masters behind them are all the Liu family. When the Liu family heads travel far away, they usually ask for escorts to protect them. Leaving aside the so-called accompanying servants and guards, it seems that there are too many people, but They are all justified, and it is difficult to use this to find fault with his family. " Qin Yi came here to investigate the Liu family. He knew more than Song Jin. The head of the Liu family is cunning and cunning. It''s almost impossible to find fault with him. Rather than finding fault with him, it would be better to find fault with those around him. Just like the second master of the Liu family. His character is not very good, and he has always been holding back the head of the Liu family. Song Jin checked Qin Yi''s luggage. There are three ledgers and a list. It is not an ordinary account book, it is an account book in which the Liu family mines minerals privately, makes weapons and sells them to pirates. It sells not only weapons, but also food, medicinal materials, cloth and other items. One of them also records which merchant ship the pirates helped the Liu family intercept and kill. dirty gains. The Liu family came to Fuzhou this time to do business with Ryukyu merchants. In fact, it is also for transactions that cannot be seen in the light. Chapter 219 containment Chapter 219 Containment After reading it, Song Jin understood immediately, "The Liu family not only raised a group of pirates, but also connected with several groups of pirates nearby. Not only did they sell weapons and food to each other at high prices, but they also often collaborated to commit murder and swindle goods." How many people who are pirates don''t carry human lives on their backs? Most of them are not the people of Daxia, but evil people from overseas countries. They often go to the villages along the coast of Daxia to burn, kill and loot. Such tragedies happen every year. The Liu family got in touch with these people. They also sell food and weapons to the other party... "This Liu family is really nothing." Song Jin''s anger burned in his chest. Others agree. The Liu family deserves to die! And Song Jin''s eyes fell on the medicinal materials in the account book. As far as she knew, the Liu family was not in the medicinal business, but they sold medicinal materials to pirates! This once again reminded Song Jin of his family. "Madam, I will leave these evidences to you for safekeeping." Qin Yi stood up, as if he was ready to die, "I will leave this ship so as not to harm my wife." "Didn''t you say you don''t have to leave?" Song Jin thought to himself how useless it would be if he couldn''t even protect himself. Qin Yi said anxiously: "The head of the Liu family left, but the thugs stayed. I guess he went to the government. When he shows up again, the officials will come to search." At that time, Song Jin couldn''t stop him no matter how much he wanted to. Otherwise, you are going against the government. Song Jin frowned and said: "There is no need to rush to die, let me think of a way. Twenty-five ships, can''t they still hide one person?" "Can''t hide it." Qin Yi said very calmly, "The Liu family has many good men on the water. The boat is so big, they know exactly where to hide people. They can''t even hide under the boat. There are many men in the Liu family who are good at diving." Say this. Song Jin felt anxious. Qin Yi would only die if he left. He tried his best to get out of the encirclement and came here to find them. He just wanted to give them the evidence and take them back to the capital. He had already had death intentions in his heart. Death is the fate of the Dark Guard. Qin Yi never thought that he could leave alive today. Qin Qi''s eyes flashed with sadness. This may be their fate. When Qin Yi wanted to leave, Song Jin said again: "Wait, wait a minute." She looked around Qin Yi, saw his mask, and asked, "Has your face been seen by the Liu family?" Qin Yi shook his head, "No." "That''s good." Song Jin saw his blood-stained night clothes again and asked, "Wear night clothes during the day?" "No. I sneaked into the Liu family''s residence here last night and was hunted down until now." Qin Yi did not expect Song Jin to think like this. I can only explain one thing. Just at this time. There were hurried footsteps again outside. Xing Lun''s voice sounded: "My boss, the head of the Liu family has returned again, and he has brought a group of officials with him." "It''s really troublesome." Song Jin and others had expected this. But he didn''t panic. Song Jin opened the door, "Alun, go find Xiaodong and try to delay it as long as possible." "Yes!" Xing Lun responded. Soon, Song Xiaodong came over. Song Jin asked him to get a set of Xiaocheng''s clothes, put them on Qin Yi, and then disguised himself to look somewhat similar to Song Xiaocheng. Meeting people at night. Its hard to see people clearly. Song Jin was glad that the fact that Song Xiaocheng went to serve as a soldier at Dinghai Guard Station was not spread to the outside world. "Only a few people know about him. Ah Qi, go and remind the others." "Okay, my subordinate will go right away." Qin Qi hurried out of the cabin. Qin Yi lowered his voice and said, "Madam, there is no need to take such risks." "You just need to follow the arrangements. Don''t make any decisions and ruin my plan." Song Jin knew that most of the secret guards raised by these big families were stupid. It''s better to get them to follow orders than to talk a lot of nonsense. Sure enough, Qin Yi didn''t say much more. He was very cooperative and disguised himself as Song Xiaocheng, temporarily taking Song Xiaocheng''s place. The blood-stained clothes and other clothes that were replaced were tied with a hammer and sunk directly to the bottom of the sea. As for the ledger? Song brocade is wrapped separately in oil paper. They were stuffed into the boots under their feet, and nothing could be seen under the long gown. "Madam, if we are found out..." Qin Ben wanted to hide it himself. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin sneered, "Officials come to search people, not to search their bodies." There was more movement outside. The officers were clamoring for the merchants to bring the cargo ship closer to the shore, saying that they would go up and search for the prisoners. Qin Yi followed Song Jin out of the single room. They both came to the cabin hall again. Qin Ba, Song Xiaodong and others. Seeing Song Jin coming out, he looked at Qin Yi. He was surprised at first, and then acted as if nothing had happened. On the shore outside the boat. The officer still shouted loudly from the shore: "Be quick and put down the plank of the ship quickly, and let me wait on board to search." "Anyone who is more sluggish will be punished as a comrade." The official continued to shout. This time the Liu family spent a lot of money to let the officials work harder on the case. Song Jin gave Xing Lun a wink, and Xing Lun immediately went to the bow of the ship and asked someone to put down the plank. Two official servants took a dozen Liu family members on board the ship. One of the officers said: "Call everyone on the ship to the deck." No one listens to official duties. Everyone looked at Song Jin first. Song Jin said: "Listen to the captain and ask the crew to gather on the bow deck." When the two officials'' eyes fell on Song Jin. Song Jin stood up without being humble or arrogant. The magnanimity surrounding him shocked the two officials. The two of them worked as yamen errands, so naturally they had some discernment. The temperaments raised by those noble people are very different. A slight smile appeared on Song Jin''s lips, but his eyes were cold, and he said to the two officers: "You two said that we are here to handle the case, so I will treat you as if you are here to handle the case. It''s just that we can search. If you leave, If anything valuable is lost on the ship, I will personally complain to the governor." The two officers were shocked. Isn''t this really a giant Buddha? The two looked at each other and immediately became short of breath. One of them nodded and bowed: "Don''t be surprised, sir. The Liu family came to report the case. The county magistrate asked us to cooperate with the investigation and we will ensure that nothing on your boat will be damaged." "Yes, the younger one will take a good look at them." Another official echoed, "If anything is missing, let the Liu family pay for it." The Liu family behind them had dark expressions on their faces. Especially the stewards who follow the boat. He knew that Song Jin had used some means to get in touch with Governor Wang and had a good relationship with General Shen. So, Butler Liu said: "We are just looking for thieves, not to cause trouble. Don''t worry, Boss Song. If anyone dares to reach out randomly, I will not be the first to spare him." Everyone stood on the bow. The sea breeze rustled. After a while, all the crew members were called to the deck. When one comes out, go up and check one. In fact, there is no need to check more. The crew members who have been floating on the water for many years have dark skin, which is very different from the people who live on the shore. Chapter 220 Dark under the lamp Chapter 220 Dark under the lamp Guan Liu asked: "How many people are on the boat? Are they all here?" "How many people there are is documented." Song Jin spoke very calmly, "I don''t need to say anything. You can just ask any crew member, or just look at the customs clearance documents and roadmap." Song Xiaocheng stayed at Dinghai Guards Station. But his route guide and customs clearance documents are all kept here by Xing Lun. Song Jin asked Xing Lun to take it out for inspection by two officials. This calm look really makes no one suspicious. In fact, the Liu family only searched the ships at the dock, and did not confirm that Song Jin''s fleet was harboring thieves. There are people from the Liu family watching. The official did not fool around and checked very carefully. More than a dozen people from the Liu family searched the ship, not even missing any corner. Some people even walked around the cargo ship and inspected the walls outside the railings. Anyone with a rope hanging outside will be picked up and inspected. Some even rowed boats close to various cargo ships. People jumped into the sea one after another to check. This level of care can''t even hide a fly, let alone a person. Under the night. Qin Yi stood behind Song Jin, half-hidden in the shadows. On the contrary, it is the least suspicious. This has a sense of darkness under the lamp. With Song Jin''s first warning, those who wanted to fish in troubled waters also gave up their thoughts, and those who went to search came over one after another to report that they had not found anything. "Then go search for the next one." Butler Liu immediately asked people to evacuate. There were many boats on the pier, and it was impossible for them to stay on one boat for a long time. Butler Liu wanted to take people away. The leading nurse from the Liu family did not move. Guan Liu asked: "Liu Huyuan, what are you doing standing here?" "I remember that the thief had an injury on his arm." Liu Huyuan looked sharply at everyone on the deck, starting from Song Jin, then to the people around her, and then to a group of crew members. Most of the crew were wearing sleeveless vests, and it didn''t take much to check to know it wasn''t them. "Tell them to take off their clothes?" When Liu Huyuan pointed at Song Jin and others, his intention was very clear, that is, to ask them to take off their clothes. Suddenly, Qin Qi ducked and kicked the man off the ship. The person was kicked into the water. In an instant, the tense atmosphere solidified like substance. Qin Qi glared at Butler Liu angrily and said angrily: "Our boss just gives you too much face, so we let you take advantage of it!" "It is indeed too shameless for the Liu family to dare to ask this young master to take off his clothes and inspect him? Who is he?" Song Jin looked at Butler Liu coldly, "How about you go directly to the governor and ask him to help you find the thief?" "Misunderstanding! It''s all a misunderstanding!" The two officials were frightened. The Liu family was so shameless that they searched other people''s ships and actually wanted to humiliate them. Song Jin said angrily: "I have long seen that the Liu family is here for my fleet. They were not allowed to search earlier, but they insist on searching. If no one is found, they will humiliate me?" Suddenly, Song Jin raised his head and said, "Come here, help me throw them into the sea!" "yes!" Several figures appeared. I saw silhouettes of people falling into the sea with a puff. The action is quite small. When Qin Yi caught Butler Liu. When Butler Liu panicked and was about to scream, Song Jin stopped him appropriately, "Xiaocheng, stop it first. This man is old and will not be lost. Forget about the two servants, they are just Follow the orders from above. "Yes, boss." Qin Yi immediately let go and retreated to Song Jin. Butler Liu was in shock. He felt like he was about to be thrown into the sea the next moment. The two officers who had fled to the side huddled together and shivered. I was extremely grateful after hearing Song Jin''s words. "Yes, we do what we are told." "It''s just that the Liu family doesn''t know what''s good and what''s good. It''s enough to search for the thief. He must humiliate Boss Song." The two officials told each other to convict the Liu family''s nursing home immediately. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Liu Huyuan, who had just surfaced in the sea, didn''t know yet that a big pot was about to be placed on his head. Logically speaking, what he did was normal. The problem is that it depends on who he is facing. One night, the pier was brightly lit. The Liu family sent a large number of people to search, not one boat at a time, but several groups of people searching at the dock, slowly narrowing the circle from the outside to the inside. The Liu Huyuan who came to search Song Jin''s place was only one of the teams. But the commotion here is quite big. It attracted most of the attention almost at once. "What happened here?" Someone from the Liu family hurried over to inquire. A dozen people floated on the sea. There was a landlubber among them, shouting "Help!", "Come and save me, I can''t swim." People nearby rushed to his rescue. The Liu family''s fishing boat also came over and rescued people on the sea one by one. When he learned that Liu Huyuan was not leaving after the search, he asked Boss Song to take off his clothes for him to check. Everyone who heard it was speechless. They have also heard of people like Song Jin. She is a very young and very capable Huizhou merchant. People say she is an Huizhou merchant because more than half of the goods on her merchant ships are from Huizhou. Among them, Hui ink, Hui brush, tea and lacquerware are very popular. That Liu Huyuan had a hard time explaining. Did he just let Song Jin take off her clothes? He made everyone wearing long robes, including Song Jin, take off their clothes! It happened that everyone accused him, but he couldn''t refute it. His finger at the beginning indeed included Song Jin. Everyone in Song Jin knew that when there was a thief in the Liu family, his whereabouts were not covered up, so it could not be the thief. When Song Jin threatened to seek justice from the governor, even the head of the Liu family couldn''t say anything after hearing the report. "Has Boss Song''s boat been searched?" Head Liu asked about the housekeeper. Butler Liu was not thrown into the sea. He felt strangely fond of Song Jinsheng and said truthfully: "I have searched carefully three times. I have also checked the identities of the people on the ship. I have also read the customs clearance documents. The number of people is correct." At that time, the servant wanted to take people to search the next boat. Liu Huyuan didn''t know what happened. He was probably not angry at being refused to board the boat before, so he pointed at Boss Song and asked him to strip down and check..." Then nothing more was said. Needless to say, Boss Song was thrown into the sea after being angered. The head of the Liu family glanced at him. This sounds okay, but in fact it is a bit biased towards Song Jin. With so many people present at that time, the head of the Liu family would not listen to anyone, so he sent away Butler Liu and asked him to lead people to continue the search, and also recruited several people at that time. The situation was actually almost the same as what Butler Liu said. The head of the Liu family only thought it was the nurse''s fault and didn''t pay much attention. Immediately summoning his confidants, he ordered: "Prepare a generous gift and send it to Boss Song. Just tell him that it belongs to my Liu family. Don''t blame him for having a lot of money. As for this little thing, don''t disturb Lord Wang." , the previous batch of goods from Yoshikawa should be regarded as an apology." "Yes, I will do it right away." Chapter 221 The thief jumped into the sea Chapter 221 The thief jumped into the sea Less than half an hour. Song Jin saw the apology sent by the Liu family, and said that the batch of goods the Liu family had snatched before was also compensation. From the words of the person who brought the gift, I learned that the Liu family was worried that Song Jinzhen would go to Governor Wang. Song Jin asked someone to keep the apology. That batch of goods was also received in full according to the order. Song Jin''s eyes flashed and he asked, "Are those goods still at the dock?" "Still." Xing Lun pointed to a cargo ship not too far away, right next to the Yoshikawa cargo ship. "The cargo is on that ship. It should be the ship of the second master of the Liu family." "Have people move the goods to our ship, so that you won''t have too many nightmares at night." Song Jin immediately gave the order. The confidants of the Liu family who came to give gifts felt contempt in their hearts. Sure enough, he has shallow eyelids. The hard work of moving goods can be taken care of by hiring porters at the dock. Song Jin can be considered a generous boss. The price offered was fair and the wages were paid on the spot. Of course she wouldn''t intentionally give a high price. That would break the rules of the dock. On the pretext that the situation tonight is special, I will give you the highest price in the past according to the price on the market. Xing Lun stared at the cabins and reported: "The cabins of several cargo ships docked are full of cargo, and there are still some cargoes that have not been loaded into the cabins." Song Jin immediately said: "Why don''t you quickly change a ship to load it? I have to keep an eye on this small matter." Turning around, she said to Qin Yiyi beside her, "You go and keep an eye on it for me. Don''t let those lazy guys get lazy again. Focus on keeping an eye on that batch of goods for me." After speaking, he winked at Qin Yi. Qin Yi understood immediately. He jumped onto a cargo ship with a full cabin, left the dock, sailed out to the sea a hundred feet away and anchored, then switched to an empty cargo ship and drove into the dock. After the ship docked safely, the workers began loading again. All this was done under the eyes of the Liu family. The Liu family also searched the cargo ship leaving the dock, and the large boxes containing the cargo were also opened and inspected. After making sure there were no hidden people, we let him go. Song Jin looked calm. He didn''t care at all about the search of the Liu family. Originally, Song Jin threw the Liu family into the sea. The Liu family was a little dissatisfied with her, but now they can''t say she was wrong. Just like this, under the eyes of the Liu family, Qin Yi left with the cargo ship and got out of the Liu family''s encirclement. It was incredibly smooth. Even Qin Yi felt like he was dreaming! Don''t talk about why the Liu family didn''t check the anchored cargo ship at sea. If the Liu family really dared to do that, others would definitely doubt their purpose. Because no matter how the thief escaped, he could not hide on a large ship hundreds of feet away from the shore. At that time, Qin Yi fled to the dock, and it was not completely dark yet. When the Liu family formed a circle, the boats floating on the sea were also excluded. The head of the Liu family is afraid of the new Governor Wang, so that Song Jin''s cargo ship can leave the dock and continue loading. Checked it again and again. There is no way a living person can hide. The head of the Liu family arranged spies to watch Song Jin''s every move in private. Song Jin had known about it for a long time, but he pretended not to know. He glanced at somewhere in the cabin and gave Xing Lun a dark look. Xing Lun was indeed with Song Jin for the longest time, and he could easily guess her thoughts. He pretended to be angry and said: "My boss, the Liu family has gone too far. Why are you so cooperative with them? After sealing the box and opening it again, what was inside I dont know if the goods are damaged. "If you are upright, you are not afraid of slanting shadows. If the Liu family wants to check, just check. Besides, the offer is too much, and I cannot tolerate my rejection. Just the thought of rejection makes me feel sad." Song Jin''s nonsensical tone made people feel itchy. He really deserves a beating! Xing Lun wanted to laugh but didn''t dare to laugh out loud, "Yeah, I haven''t thought of it even if the owner didn''t mention it. The goods from Yoshikawa are worth tens of thousands of taels, and I will only make more when they are sold." "The generous Master Liu!" Song Jin said this without any complaints, "It would be nice if this kind of thing happened a few more times." "Aren''t you afraid of causing trouble?" "If you have money, what''s the fuss? Let''s just go to the business and do it." Song Jin was getting an advantage and still didn''t like it enough, which made those who heard in the dark speechless. On second thought, so too. For such a little fuss, he received tens of thousands of taels in compensation. Not to mention anyone else, even he was sore. Suddenly, "Who is where?!" Qin Qi came out of the cabin and suddenly shouted angrily. Song Jindun pretended to be nervous on the deck. Qin Ba, Xing Lun and others immediately stood in front of Song Jin. At this moment, the light in the corner could not shine, and there was only a faint ray of light. A figure passed by, climbed over the guardrail without hesitation, and jumped down. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! With a pop, the person fell into the water. The night is vast. The sea breeze blows in my face. Song Jin took a few steps to the guardrail and looked down. There was no sign of the infiltrator on the water, and the tense atmosphere seemed about to explode. Song Jin immediately shouted: "Come here! Someone from the Liu family, come quickly! The thief is here, he jumped into the water just now!" "From the Liu family, someone from the Liu family is coming quickly!" Xing Lun also shouted loudly. Others on the boat also saw it. A masked thief in night clothes jumped from the boat and jumped into the sea. The neighboring Liu family on the dock were attracted. They came over to investigate one after another. Several fishing lanterns illuminated the place brightly, and many people were already searching the water. It took a lot of effort to really catch that man. Wearing night clothes, he wanted to explain that he was sent by the Liu Family Master, but he couldn''t say it for a moment, so he could only let the other party catch him, tie him up, and take him away. Song Jin said with a lingering fear: "The Liu family is so powerful. They caught the thief so quickly. How come we couldn''t find the thief after searching so many times before? It''s really strange. There couldn''t be someone inside the Liu family. Damn it." The speaker has no intention. The listener is interested! The head of the Liu family, who had come in a hurry and never rested, was so angry that he almost broke his silver teeth. There must be a mole in the Liu family. Otherwise, how could the things he had hidden in the Fuzhou Courtyard be easily stolen? Song Jin is on the bow. Say hello to the head of the Liu family from afar. "Master Liu! Thanks to your people this time, the thief was found so quickly. If he is allowed to stay here, everyone''s safety will not be guaranteed." Song Jin paid a few compliments without hesitation. This attitude is much better than before. The head of the Liu family didn''t say much and signaled Song Jin to put down the plank of the boat. Song Jin shouted to Xing Lun beside him: "Why are you still standing there? Get someone to put down the boat, you don''t have any eyesight." Xing Lun also smiled and lowered his head, and went over to ask someone to put down the plank of the boat. Welcome the head of the Liu family to the boat. The head of the Liu family boarded the ship with more than ten guards. "Master Liu, how about having a cup of tea together? Maybe next time we come over, we can do a deal with you. I''ve heard about Jianning''s White Lotus and I''ve always wanted to buy some to give away." Song Jin had a smile on his face, but these words were not spoken by humans. The head of the Liu family knew as soon as he heard that the other party was interested in Tongxinbailian and wanted to get involved. White lotus is now in harvest season. If Song Jin''s fleet took the Jianjiang (Minjiang) waterway on its return journey, it would really have to pass through Jianning Mansion. The main reason why Song Jin could greet the Liu family head so calmly on the boat was that the real thief Qin Yi was not on the boat and had escaped from the Liu family''s siege. The trouble here just attracts the Liu family''s attention. Chapter 222 Yanagiyas failure Chapter 222 The Liu family encounters a setback The head of the Liu family boarded the ship not without purpose, and took the opportunity to have Song Jin''s ship searched. This time I searched more carefully. Song Jin knew that what the other party was searching for was not a person, but the missing account book. Only she knew that it was impossible to find these people because the ledger was with her. The head of the Liu family exchanged a few words with Song Jin. Song Jin never tired of telling him about Jianning''s specialties and wanted to take the opportunity to make a deal. The Liu family owner was irritated and said a few perfunctory words. When the searcher shook his head to indicate that nothing was found, the Liu family owner felt as if he was being chased by a dog. , and left the ship in a hurry. "Hey, Master Liu, let''s talk next time." Song Jin shouted loudly behind the other party. The warmth seemed as if they were familiar with each other. It wasn''t until the head of the Liu family left that the smile on her face gradually faded away. "Master, do you want to keep your schedule tomorrow morning as usual?" Xing Lun asked softly, bringing Song Jin back from his thoughts. Song Jin said: "The itinerary remains as usual." Zhou Wei on the side was not sure and said: "Will the Liu family evacuate tomorrow morning? We have to leave. If the Liu family refuses under the pretext that the Yamen is investigating the case..." "We cooperated with the Liu family''s search. We can''t delay our trip for the sake of the Liu family, right? Regardless of whether the Liu family lets us go or not, this trip was decided early in the morning." Song Jin said the most suitable approach. If you don''t leave as planned, others might become more suspicious. You have to give it a try first to see if you can leave as you wish. Chatting here. The search of the dock is still ongoing. From time to time there would be some commotion, and sometimes the things that happened were not small at all. As long as there is excitement, Qin Ba will go check it out and share it with Song Jin when he comes back, "Boss Mo said that the jade ring in the room was missing. He said it was passed down from his ancestors and he was making trouble with the Liu family." "I know these people are restless." Song Jin was happy to hear the gossip, "The men of the Liu family have done a lot of robbing and looting. When they saw something good during the search, they knew they wouldn''t be able to hold it back. What happened next?" "The officers and Liu family members who boarded the ship were detained. After a body search, they were found on the body of one of the Liu family members." Qin Ba said happily. The Liu family is in such disgrace! Then there was another commotion. It was said that the cargo boxes piled up in the hold were collapsed by the searchers. Now it''s better, the losses were heavy. The reason is that the box contains porcelain, and it will all break if it is dumped. Song Jin watched again. The head of the Liu family has to pay again. Qin Qi couldn''t help but remind him: "Don''t you have a rest, Master? It''s already getting late." "I feel energetic, but I can''t sleep even when I go back to my room." Song Jin is not telling lies, he is full of spirit. Especially seeing the Liu family destroying themselves. The Liu family offended many people this time. Song Jin dared to let the Liu family search openly, because there was nothing on the ship that could not be revealed. After all, she was really doing business in an upright manner, and she paid no less in business taxes every year. Therefore, we are not afraid of being searched by officials. Some of them are different and have many shady things. The head of the Liu family soon discovered. The real difficulty is not Song Jin. Song Jin has a backer, but as long as the profit is enough, he can still cooperate with the Liu family in the search. Searched in the middle of the night. There are two fleets that are tough and don''t allow others to search them. They just can''t stand up to the officials and the Liu family. There has been a stalemate. The Liu family surrounded the two fleets. Song Jin was just unlucky. The head of the Liu family has long forgotten about her. Compared to her little grasshopper, those two fleets are more suspicious. Song Jin stayed up all the time to watch the show. "Do you know who those two caravans belong to?" Song Jin dared to be sure that there were big backers behind those two parties, not small ones at all, and he seemed not to be afraid of the Liu family. Qin Ba asked again, "I''m going to ask about it?" "Forget it, I''ll do it." Song Jin flicked his sleeves and, surrounded by everyone, walked off the cargo ship to watch the excitement there. Its not just Song Jin. There are also people from other boats who will come down to take a look. "Boss Song!" Yoshikawa used his fat advantage to push through the crowd and squeezed to Song Jin''s side. Just as he was about to get closer, Qin Qi reached out to block him. This action made Yoshikawa''s little eyes sparkle, "Boss Song, what a coincidence, you come down to see the fun too?" "I''m not curious." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin pointed to the largest ship not far away, which was also one of the fleets confronting the Liu family. "Those people on the ship must be guards. They are fully equipped with weapons and equipment. It is not simple at first glance." Yoshikawa kept nodding and said in less than standard Chinese: "It''s not simple, it''s very not simple." "Do you know whose fleet it is?" Song Jin took the opportunity to ask after catching the snake and following the stick. Yoshikawa shook his head and said he didn''t know. There are many large ships at this dock, and not all of them are caravans. Then Yoshikawa pointed to a few of the ships and whispered mysteriously: "Those ships are not allowed to be searched, and they are probably not clean." Not clean? Song Jin suddenly pretended to be enlightened. This is the vessel in question. Sure enough, the officers and the Liu family forcibly boarded the ship to search and found a dozen innocent girls and a group of abducted children. This was a big case. The head of the Liu family seized the opportunity. Send these people to the Yamen. It was considered that he had handled a case for the government and gained his reputation. After this incident, the Liu family''s forceful search of the dock can divert most of the public anger caused. If the operation is done properly, the reputation can be improved. In addition, it can also serve as a warning to other large ships. To make the crowd suspicious they would not allow a search. Is there any hidden secret? Finally, a very impressive middle-aged man appeared on the boat and handed the leading officer a jade pendant. When the official saw the jade sign, he immediately knelt down. Just as he was about to say something, he was kicked down by the middle-aged man and cursed something that even the official did not dare to say. Songjin Station is farther away. Can''t hear what they say. But with such an incident, no matter how hard the Liu family tried, they still couldn''t find the fleet. The Liu family worked all night and returned without success. The only fleet that had not been searched became a thorn in the heart of the Liu family. After removing the people. The big ships at the dock were standing in the distance and watching. The head of the Liu family spoke to his confidants in a low voice. Then, Butler Liu stuffed the banknotes to the leading official and asked in a low voice: "Sir,...can you tell me where this person is from?" The official took the banknote and said, "He is a nobleman from Beijing." Butler Liu understood. The official said in awe: "That is a white jade axe-style pendant with a carved dragon and chi." It was the first time in his life that he saw it with his own eyes, and he had only seen patterns before. In order to prevent the officials below from offending the nobles, the government would draw a book of status symbols and send them to the yamen of each state capital so that those people could identify them before going on duty. The head of the Liu family learned of this result. Nothing was said on the surface. Behind the scenes, he began to order others to investigate. Chapter 223 Nobles in the capital Chapter 223 Nobles in the Capital Before the head of the Liu family received the news. Song Jin also received news here, and learned that the fleet that dared to block the Liu family and confront the Liu family, and even caused the Liu family to retreat, was most likely a relative of the emperor. Or maybe a certain prince? Qin Ba asked: "Do you want to inquire again?" "No need, it has nothing to do with us. In case you break a taboo and get burned." Song Jin didn''t want anyone to inquire anymore. No matter what, she still wanted to thank him this time. Without the opponent to support her, the Liu family''s attention might always be on her merchant ship. You must know that others are not like Song Jin, who used the name of Governor Wang to deceive the Liu Family Master a lot. "Before we leave, send someone to deliver 10,000 silver notes to the Dinghai Guard Station. It should be donated by our Jifang Merchant Ship to thank them for protecting the tranquility of the sea area." Song Jin said it very righteously. Xing Lun immediately asked someone to do it. The Liu family found no one and evacuated most of their personnel. But its not like theres no one watching. The news that Song Jin''s people went to the guard station again quickly reached the Liu family. Moreover, he knew that Governor Wang was still at the guard station, but he didn''t know what Song Jin was going to do. As for Governor Wang. I received a sudden donation from the Jifang caravan, but I was still confused. Especially after hearing Xing Lun''s narration of Song Jin''s words, both Governor Wang and General Shen knew that it was nonsense. Dinghai Guards Station has just been established. The navy has not yet taken shape, how can we protect one side? But they found an excuse to give away money, including a generous 10,000 taels, so they could only accept it with tears in their eyes. They also said a few words of encouragement, making Xing Lun look grateful. Both parties are drama masters, and they understand each other tacitly. General Shen Shen also personally escorted Xing Lun back to the dock. However, Song Jin took the opportunity to talk about Cheng Cheng and say goodbye to Shen Shenjiang. General Shen Shen led a dozen soldiers and rode horses at the dock to watch Song Jin''s fleet leave the port. Song Jin was still standing on the deck, waving goodbye to General Shen Shen on the shore, looking reluctant to leave, "When I come to Fuzhou next time, I will have a drink with you! We must not be drunk by then." Hearing this, Shen Shen would be amused. What does "again" mean? Have they had alcohol before? However, seeing that Song Jin had given another ten thousand taels, General Shen Shen didn''t mind giving a response, so he also raised his arm and waved. This response is not simple. The secretly observing spies immediately confirmed the rumors that Song Jin had a close relationship with Governor Wang or General Shen Shen. Including the Liu family, they also received the news quickly. If the relationship was not deep, how could he come to deliver it in person? That''s right, everyone thought that they were General Shen and came specially to see Song Jin and others off. No matter how many thoughts he had in Liu family''s mind, he was still helpless. "Did Boss Song''s caravan decide to leave temporarily, or were they already planning to leave this morning?" The head of the Liu family has doubts in his heart. The investigator replied: "Based on the number of days rented at the dock, they should have left yesterday. It seems, it seems that the second master robbed Boss Song''s goods and caused the other party to delay for a day. Their fleet was completed during the day yesterday Supplies. "Then the time to leave has been set for a long time?" The head of the Liu family thought about it over and over, but couldn''t figure out a flaw. "Have people leave them alone and let them leave to avoid causing trouble." Compared with Song Jin''s caravan, the fleet that was not allowed to be searched was more suspicious. A nobleman from the capital? A jade pendant with a dragon pattern on it? As a member of the royal family and aristocrats coming to remote Fuzhou, it is worth exploring no matter what you think. He had not received any news before that a noble person was coming to Fuzhou. Song Jin stood on the deck. The sea breeze made the clothes rustle. Looking at the dock that was getting away, Song Jin''s heart wavered a little. "I didn''t expect to leave so easily." Qin Qi felt incredible. This is what Song Jin felt. Xing Lun chuckled and said: "This is not simple at all." "Yes, it''s not easy. It''s all thanks to Alun." Song Jin knew that Shen Shen would come over to see her off after thinking about it. It was most likely Xing Lun who did it on purpose. At that time, Xing Lun was asked to deliver the banknotes. Song Jin simply wanted to borrow the power of Governor Wang and General Shen Shen, or he wanted to borrow it clearly so that no one could make any mistakes if they knew it. What''s more, when you eat a big meal with the banner of Governor Wang and General Shen, you always have to give someone a sip of soup. This has always been Song Jin''s principle of doing things. Later, when Governor Wang and General Shen heard about the incident at the dock, and with the 10,000 taels as a backing, the two of them would not have any grudge against each other, and would even think that Song Jin was someone they could deal with. This is human nature. It would be different if the money was not sent. Being used by others to gain benefits, but you have not benefited from it, comparing your feelings to others will make you feel a little uncomfortable. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin''s move eliminated the hidden danger. It''s just that Song Jin didn''t expect Xing Lun to be so good. They deceived General Shen Shen. With General Shen Shen on hand to suppress them, the Liu family did not dare to intercept their merchant ships even if they wanted to. After all, no matter how powerful the Liu family was behind them, they did not dare to openly confront the government on the surface. Wait for Song Jin''s fleet to leave. Shen Shenjiang did not return to the guardhouse the way he came, and was invited to board the big ship that seemed to have a "noble man". The departure of the twenty-five large ships was quite commotion. Seeing that the Liu family did not intercept them, others took the opportunity to leave. Where there is one, there are two, and there are three. In half a day, most of the ships at the pier had left. Song Jin and others were the first to leave. It didn''t take long to spot the ship following behind. Xing Lun said: "This is good. When other fleets leave, we will not be conspicuous, and we don''t have to worry about the Liu family intercepting them." "The Liu family will not keep an eye on us for the time being." Song Jin knew that if General Shen Shen or the nobleman from the capital was not at the forefront, he might be a little wary. There is no need to worry at all now. The Liu family has searched over and over again whoever sent their fleet, and the suspicion can be said to be minimal. "When we get to the river mouth, we''ll spend some money to ask the garrison to **** us for a while." Song Jin suddenly made another decision. Zhou Wei was stunned, "Didn''t my boss say he''s not worried?" "I''m worried that the goods on the ship will be targeted by interested people." Song Jin knew that there are some advantages, but they are not easy to take advantage of. "Who knows if there will be someone in the Liu family who is not angry. Think about the second master of the Liu family who snatched the goods." "I understand, it''s my boss''s foresight." Zhou Wei met Mr. Liu once from a distance. That''s not easy to deal with. It is normal for a fleet to do business outside, and it is normal to hire someone to **** it. Just like the Cao Gang who make a living on the Grand Canal, they have to spend a sum of money to enter every time they go. It is not easy to be stable without spending money. Entered Jianjiang. Ask someone to **** you and make the journey smooth. The water bandit who secretly stared at Song Jin''s fleet was so angry that he went back to report to the master behind it, Liu Erye. After hearing this, Mr. Liu was so angry that he smashed a set of fine porcelain on the spot. But Song Jin did not enter Jinxi with the fleet. At Jianxikou, you will change boats and walk for a while, and then take the land route back to Huizhou Prefecture. Chapter 224 return home Chapter 224 Return The people accompanying Song Jin. Only Qin Qi and Qin Ba, the others stayed in the fleet with Xing Lun. Song Xiaodong originally wanted to stay with Song Jin, but Song Jin asked him to stay in the fleet. As the saying goes, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. During these two years. Not to mention how Song Jin is doing, Xing Lun and others are growing rapidly. When passing by Jianning Mansion, Song Jin did not stop. As she expected, the head of the Liu family had no time to pay attention to her. What Liu Erye cared about was also the stolen goods. The fleet entered Jinxi and was no longer within the Liu family''s sphere of influence. When Song Jin landed ashore, he had already left Jianning Mansion. The horse galloped along the way. A few days later, the person arrived in She County, Huizhou. It was already dusk, and Song Jin found an inn to stay. The horses were led to the stables behind the inn by the store clerk. Song Jin entered the inn under the protection of Qin Qi and Qin Ba. "Hey, a meal?" A man''s teasing voice sounded from the railing on the second floor. Song Jin raised his head and looked upstairs. I unexpectedly met Yang Yingrong! A dandy who was supposed to be in the capital actually appeared in She County, Huizhou. And this person has such good eyesight that someone who has not seen her for many years, but only met once or twice, actually still remembers her? Song Jinruo remembered correctly. When they first met, he disliked her very much. Will a normal person remember it? Song Jin looked at Yang Yingrong with eyes full of inquiry. "Don''t remember me, young master?" Yang Yingrong leaned lazily beside the vermilion pillars, wearing a brocade robe, showing his extraordinary status. When he looked at Song Jinzhi downstairs, the corners of his lips raised slightly, showing a disdainful smile. Song Jin raised his lips and smiled. These people are really annoying. Because some people are born with arrogance and are accustomed to looking down on all living beings in a condescending manner. "Young Master?" Qin Qi reminded. Song Jin withdrew his gaze and said, "I want three upper rooms." "yes." Qin Qi turned to Qin Ba. Qin Ba didn''t need her to say anything, walked to the shopkeeper''s counter, and quickly opened three connected guest rooms. Yang Yingrong raised his eyebrows. Song Jin stepped onto the second floor, but did not avoid Yang Yingrong. He said boldly: "It is an honor for me to make the third young master miss you for two or three years with a meal. I will pay for the food and drinks for the third young master today." "Hahaha" Yang Yingrong laughed out loud. In fact, does he lack money for this meal? No shortage! What is missing is the joy of being treated! "Brother, come for a drink?" Yang Yingrong waved to Song Jin. Song Jin hid his thoughts and said: "I am a busy man. After traveling all day and night, what I want to do most is sleep. When I wake up, if I can still see the third young master, I can have a good drink then." Passing by Yang Yingrong, he patted him on the shoulder. Yang Yingrong was very surprised. Due to his status, not many people dared to pat him on the shoulder, especially the kind of people he regarded as poor people. In fact, he will remember Song Jin because he is the most special among the poor people he has ever met. He was not in awe of him when he first met him. She clearly quit at that time. But he just knew that the other party was not afraid of him. A man who is poorly dressed and has no sense of humility. Such people are either fearless if they don''t know, or they hide their background. At that time, the other party avoided him. It was obviously not the ignorant person, so it was the latter. Human beings are curious. Yang Yingrong is no different. Song Jin probably didn''t expect that the other party''s eyes were so vicious. Separate from Yang Yingrong. Return to guest room. Song Jin left the person behind and simply ate something. After calling for warm water to wash up, he fell on the bed and fell into a deep sleep. Traveling continuously is the most tiring thing. Qin Qi also went back to his room to rest. On the contrary, Qin Ba had too much energy and went to the lobby on the first floor to listen to stories and gossip from the guests. A young man in green clothes approached Qin Ba. "Brother, we meet again." The boy winked at him. Qin Bala said cheerfully: "It''s you, the boy next to Young Master Yang San." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! I heard Old Li Tou say it. This boy used to bully others and was very arrogant. There must be a purpose for approaching him with a shy face. Qin Ba pretended not to realize this and started chatting with the young man. He soon discovered that the young man was inquiring about Song Jin''s identity. Qin Ba fooled him. Instead, he started talking to the boy. The reason why Yang Yingrong came to Huizhou was completely deceived. According to what the young man said, there was someone in the capital who couldn''t stand his young master and set up a trap to trick Yang Yingrong. Yang Yingrong found out and then got into a fight. He maimed him on the spot. The person is lying on the bed. Yang Yingrong was also sent to Huizhou by his mother to avoid trouble. He had an uncle who taught in the academy here, and his family sent him out of the capital in the name of studying. Of course the boy would not tell the truth. But Qin Ba summarized it like this based on clichs. So early the next morning, when Song Jin woke up and had breakfast, Qin Ba chatted with her about the matter. "Which academy?" Song Jin asked. Qin Ba replied: "Ziyang Academy, this academy has always recruited mostly children from wealthy families." A few students from poor families also passed the exam to get in. In terms of teachers, Ziyang Academy is considered top-notch. If you really want to study, you can learn a lot. But when a dandy like Yang Yingrong goes in, he has no intention of studying, so he just hangs around. Mentioned the matter of scholars. Song Jin unconsciously thought of Qin Chi, "When will your young master arrive in Huizhou?" "It will take another two days." Qin Ba went to the trading house to inquire. Qin Chi had to go back to his hometown to handle the registration and other procedures for the imperial examination. When he got the qualifications for the examination, he would go to the provincial capital to take the examination. Check out early and rush back to Hongcun, Yi County. When Yang Yingrong came over for dinner at noon, he inquired and found that Song Jin had left. His expression was very strange. He was a little worried that the other party was here for him, but when he found out that it was a coincidence, he felt a little pity. "Is he really a businessman from Huizhou?" Yang Yingrong kicked the boy in Qingyi. It was not a very hard kick, but it showed a bit of intimacy. "Is this serious? If a businessman from Huizhou returns to She County and wants to stay in an inn, what do you think? Is it credible? The boy in green bowed slightly and said: "It''s true, it''s true. Yesterday, I asked the servant next to him and said that his master is an Huizhou merchant. He has been running business outside for more than half a year. He just came back yesterday and was going to Rush at home. "What else?" Yang Yingrong asked. The boy in green clothes was confused, "What else?" "Name, which county are you from, and what kind of business do you do?" Yang Yingrong waited for the young man in Tsing Yi to answer, but the young man looked innocent and was so angry that he actually kicked him, "How stupid are you? After chatting with someone for a long time, you didn''t find out anything useful." It was only then that the boy in Tsing Yi realized it, with a look of annoyance on his face. Why didn''t he realize it before? Its not unfair to be kicked! Chapter 225 Return to Qinjiagou Chapter 225 Return to Qinjiagou No matter what the master and servant of the Yang family are thinking. Song Jin rushed back to Hongcun Town after a long journey. Before going back, I went to an inn to stay and changed back into women''s clothes. When I returned, I found the door closed. I patted it, but no one opened the door. "What''s going on? Is there no one at home?" Song Jin calculated the time. Qin Qi reminded: "It''s the Ghost Festival, will everyone go back to their hometowns?" Mid-July is the Hungry Ghost Festival. Qin Qi went to the next door neighbor to inquire about it, and said that the Qin family had returned to their hometown two days ago and said that they had received a letter from their hometown, saying that an old man was sick or something. Hear this reason. Song Jin subconsciously thought that the two old men were restless. Maybe something will happen again. In the past two years, Song Jin had not received much news from Huizhou. The reason was that her destination was uncertain. Occasionally, she could learn about her child''s situation from Qin Chi''s letters. Unconsciously, the child becomes two years older. At first I had no idea. At this moment, Song Jin felt a little more anxious. He immediately decided to go back to Qinjiagou. Qin Qi hesitated and said: "Madam, do you want to go back to Qinjiagou together without waiting for the young master to come back? If we go back now, if the old madam and the others ask about the young master, how will you answer?" "This is simple. Just say that your young master has temporarily visited a respected gentleman. Just ask me to go back first." Song Jin came up with an excuse at the drop of a hat, without having to think about it. If Qin Qi hadn''t seen it with his own eyes. I almost believed this reason. Song Jin wanted to go back, but Qin Qi did not stop him. When returning to the town, Song Jin changed into a carriage and placed the gifts he brought back for his family and children in piles, occupying most of the space in the carriage. Saw a car full of stuff. "Fortunately, I''m alone. No matter how many of you young masters there are, we won''t be able to fit in a carriage." Song Jin''s words left Qin Qi speechless for a long time. Qin Ba, who was driving, also felt that his young master had been wronged. The young master is not as important as a cart full of gifts. Following Song Jin all the time, the two of them knew very well whether Song Jin had ever thought about Qin Chi. I think about it, but not often. More often than not, Song Jin''s mind was on serious matters. When the carriage returned to Qinjiagou after a long absence. Song Jin opened the car window and saw the familiar scenery, and felt a different kind of emotion in his heart. Not exactly the joyful feeling of returning home. Regarding Qinjiagou, Song Jin is more complicated. I have lived here for too long in my past and present lives, and whether it is good or bad, my feelings are a little different after all. The curtains were lowered. The villagers'' discussion could be vaguely heard outside. "Hey, who owns this carriage?" an uncle asked. Someone among them laughed and said: "How many people in Qinjiagou can afford to ride a carriage?" "It''s not the village chief''s house." "It''s not from the old patriarch''s family either." There are only a few households in Qinjiagou that can afford a horse-drawn carriage. One is the village chief''s home, the second is the old patriarch''s home, and the other is Qin Juren''s home and Qin Xiucai''s home. Some people are guessing whose family it is? When she saw that the carriage was heading towards Song Jin''s small home, an aunt immediately said loudly: "Oh, I look at the direction the carriage is going, it seems to be Ming Zhong''s home." "Is Dalang back?" An old man asked. Someone else said: "He should be back soon. I heard that the provincial examination is in August." "Is he going to take part? Didn''t he say he went to the Imperial College to study?" Qinjiagou gave birth to a scholar and a young man who went to study at the Imperial College. He was famous in this area. Even the unmarried sons and gentlemen in the village were not worried about getting married, and the girls were also vying for someone to propose marriage. In the past two years, Qinjiagou''s life has obviously become much better. Someone was running after the carriage. Most of them were children. When Song Jin got off the carriage, he happened to see a group of children surrounding him. Two identical boys came forward. A boy raised his little head and asked: "Are you the sister-in-law? I am Shiro of the Qin family." "I''m Goro." The childish little boy next to him said impatiently. As if he was afraid that Song Jin would miss him. Song Jin''s eyebrows smiled softly, "It''s you two, you''ve grown so big." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Children aged seven or eight are very innocent and cute. Especially the two who were exactly the same and looked like tigers. Song Jin immediately took out a bag of candies from the carriage and each of them grabbed a handful and put them in their pockets. The children in other villages had envy and longing in their eyes. He was very polite and did not come forward to ask for it. Song Jin simply handed the whole bag of candy to Shiro and Wulang and asked them to distribute it to the children in the village. The two of them were very happy, patting their chests and saying that the safekeeping could be completed. "Is the elder man''s wife back?" Li received the news and hurried out to the door. When he saw Song Jin, a kind smile appeared on his face, and he looked behind her again, "Are you coming back alone? Qi''an didn''t come back with you?" "My husband has something to do, so we will be late for two days." Song Jin said with a smile and asked Mrs. Li again, "Is your mother-in-law okay at home?" "Okay, everything is okay. Come home quickly, I''ve already asked someone to clean your dormitory." Mrs. Li grabbed Song Jin''s hand and pulled her into the room. Stuff in the car. It was moved by Qin Qi and Qin Ba. Later Mrs. Huang came out and joined in carrying the gifts. Song Jin went into the house. Then I saw a pair of three or four-year-old children playing in the yard and playing Cuju. Next to him was Xiaoyu, protecting him. Xiaoyu was now cured and looked like a little girl. When she saw Song Jin coming back, she was surprised and said: "My boss, you are finally back?" "ah?" The twins heard the sound. They all stopped and looked at the door. They had long forgotten what their mother looked like, but they could often hear things about Song Jin from their grandmother and sister Xiaoyu, and suddenly knew that their mother was back. The two children looked at Song Jin with wide eyes. Song Jin''s chest felt slightly sour, "Huzi, Niuniu, mother is back." "Wow, wow..." Suddenly, Niuniu cried. Then the little tiger rushed to Song Jin like a cannonball and hugged her legs. Then his eyes were full of tears, his mouth was flat and he didn''t cry out, and the tears were falling. Song Jin''s throat seemed to be blocked by something. Feeling very uncomfortable, he couldn''t help but picked up Huzi and walked towards the little girl. Song Jin didn''t expect the child to cry suddenly when he saw her. She thought they would not recognize her for a while and would get better after getting along with her for a few days, but she didn''t expect that the meeting would be like this. Mrs. Li followed up and saw this, sighing slightly in her heart. "This child is born to miss his mother." Mrs. Huang came in carrying things and said one more thing when she saw this situation. Li agreed very much, "That''s true." Havent seen each other for two years. No one may recognize her, but when she hears her mother is back, she still cries and gets close to her. Chapter 226 A filial wife Chapter 226 The filial wife After returning home. Song Jin has been accompanying her child Niwai. From the initial unfamiliarity to the clinginess of the child, and even saying childish words from time to time, Song Jin accompanied her patiently and was completely soft-hearted. Xiaoyu was also there. The little girl in her early teens seemed very reliable and took good care of the two little kids. Mrs. Li watched from the side and saw that Song Jin had finished eating and had no intention of moving, so she said, "Why don''t you go to the old house to see the elders?" Song Jin raised his eyes and asked, "Is someone sick?" The look in his eyes seemed to be asking if he was really sick or fake. Mrs. Li easily understood it, and she raised the corner of her mouth and said, "This time it''s really not a monster. It''s my mother-in-law who is sick, and the illness is not serious. It costs a lot of money just to see a doctor and take medicine." Seeing Song Jin''s interest, Li continued: "This disease doesn''t hurt unless it happens to you. It''s like some people. When others are sick, they let others endure it. They don''t even bother to spend a few pennies to buy medicine. They treat it as if they are sick themselves. The doctor said that if you dont treat it, you will die, and the money will be available immediately. Song Jin asked: "How much did it cost?" "You are no longer young or old. It costs eight taels to go to the drug store to get medicine. During this period, all the private rooms your father-in-law saved have been put into it. Your pocket is cleaner than your face." It''s not that Li felt sorry for the money. But I am disgusted by the old Mr. Liu. I feel sick for most of my life, and I can only live like this. "By the way, who did you hear from that someone was sick in the old house?" Mrs. Li didn''t ask anyone when she saw Song Jin coming back. Song Jin could only tell the story of her return to Hongcun first, "I heard from my neighbors that there was a letter from my hometown, saying that an old man was sick, and everyone went back. I thought someone was going to cause trouble again, but I didn''t expect it to be true." "Can you?" Li smiled and said, "I thought the same thing when I first heard it. The letter first mentioned that my mother-in-law was sick, and then mentioned that the Ghost Festival was coming. It said that the old man wanted the family to be lively and lively, and asked the three brothers to go back to their hometown to celebrate the festival." After saying these words, Li''s eyes looked strange. Obviously there is something going on. Song Jin listened attentively, "Is there anything else going on over there?" "Yes, my brother-in-law came back from the capital and said that he would take part in the examination next year, so we three people in the house can join in." Li was speechless when he mentioned this. Song Jin asked again: "Who asked for the money?" "Who else could it be? The one who''s sick in bed and can''t get out of bed." Li felt strange when she thought of this, "My uncle has been studying in the capital for two years. The expenses should be quite high. I think my clothes are not cheap. A casual outfit costs ten or twenty taels. He is living better than all of us." , I just want to ask us for money." "Did everyone give it?" Song Jin knew that Old Man Qin was not short of money. Ms. Li shook her head, "I spent all the money on my mother-in-law''s treatment." "Don''t worry about this matter. There is no shortage of money for the fourth house." Song Jin thought for a while and finally didn''t reveal the five thousand taels. Five thousand taels a year is equivalent to an astronomical figure in an ordinary household. There were memories of her previous life, so Song Jin didn''t want to give the money anymore, but this was her father''s decision before the accident. There is not enough reason to refuse to give it to Song Huaichang. Li and Song Jin chatted a lot, but seeing Song Jin still sitting still, she said helplessly: "You have just come back, as a junior, it would be better to visit the old house. Whether you are willing or not, you have to go , its okay to just show off. This is a matter of filial piety. It is difficult to say whether the elderly are kind or not, but as a junior who returns to the village and does not visit the elderly, it will be said to be unfilial. Song Jin nodded and asked Madam Huang to pack up a few gifts and take them to the old house later. I will also bring a copy to the second and third bedrooms. So Song Jin simply didn''t even change her clothes, holding gifts in both hands, Mrs. Huang and Xiaoyu each carrying their own things, walking towards the old house in the afterglow of the setting sun in full view of everyone. Someone asked: "Dalang''s wife, who is this?" "Didn''t I hear that my grandma was sick? I rushed back in a hurry. I didn''t even have time to change my clothes, so I took some supplements to see her old man." There was a hint of anxiety in Song Jin''s words. "Oh, I''m interested." The aunt looked at the things the three people were carrying with envy. At first glance, he looks like he is young or old. Everyone in the village felt sour when they saw it. Mrs. Liu''s reputation has long been bad, but she is extremely enviable. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Someone asked along the way, and Song Jin just said this. So within a short while, almost the entire Qinjiagou knew that Song Jin was filial. Even in a foreign country, I would rush home when I heard that the old man was sick. Someone asked about Qin Chi. Song Jin added: "My husband will be back in two days. When he goes to school, he can''t just ask for leave. There must be a schedule, right?" "This is the truth, this is the truth!" Several elders praised him, "Da Lang is also a filial child." "Exactly, my husband-in-law can''t be more filial than anything else." Song Jin praised Qin Chi without blushing. Qin Chi wouldn''t know what to think if he heard this. He has not seen this wife who praised him for two years! Someone stopped me from talking. Song Jin answered them one by one, with a very good temper. The walk from home to the old house took twice as long as usual. The things Xiaoyu carried were transferred to the second room. Song Jin and Mrs. Huang stepped into the Qin family''s house one after another. The maid saw the surprise on Song Jin''s face and hurriedly went in to report that Song Jin was here. "He just came, thinking he was some big shot." Old Mrs. Liu was restless while lying in bed, and said cursingly, "I''ve been sick for so long, and I haven''t seen them come back. Now that I''m almost recovered, why are you pretending again?" Song Jin, who was outside the house, listened and silently pretended not to hear. However, most of the things originally given to Old Liu were added to the third room''s share. Song Jin ordered: "Aunt Huang, these have been moved to my third uncle''s house. I heard that third aunt gave birth to a big fat boy again, but I haven''t seen it yet." Mrs. Huang was stunned. I wanted to say that I took it by mistake, but when I saw Song Jin''s smiling mouth and unsmiling eyes, I immediately lowered my head and pretended not to see it, and responded respectfully: "Okay, boss, I''ll take it right away." Mrs. Huang is no stranger to this place. Immediately carry the things to the third room. Old Liu in the room had seen Song Jin holding a bunch of things earlier and thought they were all for him. When Granny Huang took away most of it and said it was going to the third room, she felt like her heart was being ripped out instantly, and her heart ached with pain. "Come back, come back, come back. Why should you take the things you gave me to the third bedroom? You, you unfilial thing, are you here to see me or to make me angry..." Old Mrs. Liu pointed at Song Jin who stepped into the house and cursed. It''s been two years since I last saw him, and Mr. Liu''s temper has gotten worse again. Chapter 227 Sorry, your happiness has been in vain again. Chapter 227: Your happiness is in vain again Song Jin didn''t care if he was scolded. Listening to the words from the left ear and the right ear, he put down the bag of pastries and tea in his hand, and said with a smile: "Grandma is scolding very loudly, and she is very angry. It is obviously better. My husband and I are also I feel more at ease. The tea was obviously for Old Man Qin. In the end, Mrs. Liu only got a bag of pastries. There was no one else in the room, and Old Qin happened to be away, so Song Jin said a few perfunctory words and then went out, completely ignoring Old Liu''s curse words. Song Jin rubbed his eyebrows. Mrs. Huang also happened to come out. When she heard Old Liu''s scolding, she almost wanted to slap her in the face, "Madam, don''t worry, some people are so shameless that they can''t live a day without scolding others." "I know, I didn''t take it seriously." Song Jin really didn''t take old Liu seriously. She has seen many people like Old Liu. Old man Qin is in the hall. Just when Song Jin was about to go over to see him, he saw Qin Mingsong face to face. He was standing in the corridor not far away. I wonder if it was because of the distance that Song Jin was dazzled and felt that something was wrong with Qin Mingsong''s eyes. It''s not very comfortable anyway. Song Jin simply pretended not to see him, turned around and stepped into the hall. She and Old Man Qin didn''t have much to talk about, just a few casual remarks. Old man Qin asked about Qin Chi: "I''m going to be twenty this year. Is his body and bones okay?" I specifically mentioned Qin Chi''s age, but of course I mentioned it briefly from time to time. When he was a child, doctors told him that his eldest grandson would not be able to live well, but he grew up sick and still married and had a child. The child is now three or four years old, smart and cute. You must know that 20 is a man''s crown, and normally a coming-of-age ceremony is required. Farmers are not that particular. Old Man Qin''s question has nothing to do with the crown ceremony. He is really worried about Qin Chi''s health. He knew that Qin Chi, the eldest grandson, was lucky enough to be born young. If you are sick, you will meet a good doctor. If you want to study, there will be someone to teach you. When he was a child, he went to a private school. When his master saw that he was very talented in reading, he refused to restrain himself. Now I have read all the books in Imperial College. It''s a pity that I''m twenty now. Can my body and bones still bear it? Old Man Qin also regretted this. If a grandson with good health went to the Imperial College to study, he would definitely have a great future. Song Jin saw that Old Qin did not hide the regret on his face. I didnt know what to say for a moment. It can only be said that Qin Chi''s illness is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even though he lived to the age of twenty, he still did not change people''s minds. I just thought it was a miracle that he had survived for so long, and he was almost going to die. This idea is not just for outsiders. Song Jin occasionally had this thought. Old man Qin looked at Song Jin''s hesitant expression and the way he wanted to say something or not. He immediately thought of Qin Chi and said with clarity, "Is it getting worse?" Immediately, he let out a long sigh, "His body and bones are fighting with God for his life. He shouldn''t go to the capital. It would be better to take good care of him at home. Studying is too laborious." How can this sick man bother? Song Jin remembered receiving the letter from Qin Chi and said, "My husband is in good health. Dr. Jing has taken care of him well." "Okay, you don''t have to comfort me." Old Man Qin said again that Song Jin was interested, and everyone knew it, "It''s Dalang''s matter, please put more thought into taking care of him." "He is my husband-in-law, I will do it." Song Jin could only respond without further explanation. Because she found that explanations were useless. At this time, a child poked his head outside the house. It was Shiro and Goro who were listening to their conversation. Then he ran away and learned from Qin Laoer and Xiao Liu. The two misunderstood after hearing this, thinking that Qin Chi was in poor health. Then everyone else in the family knew that Qin Chi was about to die. Suddenly, the old Qin family became gloomy and gloomy. While Song Jin was talking to Old Man Qin, Song Xiu also heard the news that Qin Chi was about to die. She was looking in the mirror to dress up and quickly threw away the jewelry in her hand. Leaving the house in a hurry. When Song Jin came out, she saw Song Xiu looking at her sympathetically. Wherever she goes, that''s where she looks. "Are you sick?" Song Jin turned back and looked at Song Xiu coldly. There is something wrong with this couple today! Song Xiu said with pity: "Sister, why didn''t you inform me when you came back? We sisters have not seen each other for two years. Oh, my poor sister, you have worked hard for you in the past two years and you have become thin." "What nonsense are you talking about?" Song Jin sensed something was wrong, but she didn''t expect that the other party was so imaginative and thought about Qin Chi''s death. Song Xiu stepped forward as if to hold Song Jin''s hand, but Song Jin avoided it in time. However, with such a decent face, Song Jin didn''t know what kind of medicine she had sold in her gourd. "Sister, it''s okay to be a widow. At least you still have a pair of children, and you have hope for the future." Song Xiu picked up the embroidered handkerchief and wiped the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes. A look of compassion on his face. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin finally understood, "Someone told you that my husband-in-law died?" "Isn''t this spread all over the place?" Song Xiu blinked and then said pretentiously, "Sister, you don''t have to deceive yourself, sister understands. Hey, but you have to accept the reality early and live a good life. There are no obstacles in this world that you can''t overcome." "Oh, thank you then." Song Jin didn''t want to talk nonsense to her anymore, "It''s a pity that my husband-in-law is living a good life, so your happiness will be in vain." This yin and yang was so weird that it made Song Xiu angry. Song Xiu just wanted to say that she shouldn''t force herself. Just at this moment, Qin Laoer and Xiao Liu came over anxiously. Soon Song Jin knew who was spreading the rumor. It turned out that two little kids overheard what she and Old Man Qin were saying and ran to tell the adults. Song Jin couldn''t laugh or cry, "Second uncle, second aunt, this matter is a misunderstanding. The elder man is in very good health, but the child misunderstood and did not listen to everything." "It turned out to be a mistake." Xiao Liu patted her chest with a look of fear on her face. Then he got so angry that he beat the two little kids. He picked them up and spanked them several times, almost making them cry. Qin Laoer also breathed a sigh of relief, "Good fight, let them spread random messages." Mrs. Lin on the side also came out with a little baby in her arms. Hearing that it was a misunderstanding, a smile appeared on his face. For a while, it was quite enjoyable. Anyway, Song Xiu''s face darkened, not because she didn''t believe Song Jin''s words, but because there was no sadness in Song Jin''s expression, and she really didn''t look like a woman whose husband had died. Song Xiu snorted coldly, turned around and left. Song Jin ignored her at all and chatted with everyone for a while, saying that Qin Chi would be back in two days and would also take part in this year''s provincial examination. Seeing that it was almost dark again, I said goodbye and left. Xiao Liu held a child in one hand. Follow Song Jin out. Judging from the look on her face, she had something to gossip about with Song Jin. When Qin''s second son also came out, Xiao Liu gave him the child, and walked home with Song Jin while whispering gossip. Most of them talk about the excitement in the fourth room. Before the separation of the family, old man Qin would cover up anything that happened in the Qin family. Song Xiu was a ruthless person and would do anything if she was offended. For example, Qin Mingsong''s reputation was almost ruined by Song Xiu''s. At least everyone in the village knew that he killed his son and kept an extramarital wife. This is a stain that Qin Mingsong cannot wash away. Song Jin asked lukewarmly: "Brother-in-law and Waishi are still together?" "Here he is, he was there." Xiao Liu looked around and complained, "I can''t understand them. It''s not just me. The elders and ladies in the village also say they can''t understand. A woman who is not a good concubine must cheat her death." Being an outsider? What do you think she wants?" "Yes, what is she planning?" Song Jin responded quietly. Chapter 228 Something happened to Qin Chi Chapter 228 Something happened to Qin Chi Two years ago Qin Mingsong went to the capital to study. Bai Cuiwei originally wanted to go to the capital with him and avoid everything in Huizhou. This was a good idea, but Song Xiu''s ghost lingered and followed them all the time. At the end of the fuss, Qin Mingsong went to Beijing alone without anyone. Song Jin gently reminded Xiao Liu, "There is no shortage of money in the fourth house, so don''t really believe what grandma says." "I know, I have a long-sighted mind." Xiao Liu raised his eyebrows. The second bedroom still lives in the old house. At first, it was to avoid Bai Cuiwei, but later Bai Cuiwei was gone, and Xiao Liu didn''t want to move back. My life is much more comfortable now that I am away from the old Liu family. Next two days. Song Jin went to the pharmacy in the county town. In addition to meeting Yinlong, I also unexpectedly met Jin Ling. Jin Ling almost cried with joy, hugging Song Jin and not letting go: "Little miss, have you forgotten me? It''s been how long, I haven''t seen anyone, and there is no news." "Didn''t Zhou Wei tell you about me?" Song Jin made a guilty plea. Jin Ling rolled her eyes at her, "My son is my son, and you are you. I think you probably don''t care about Aunt Ling." "No, no, I''ve been thinking about it." Song Jin smiled and put his arm around Jin Ling''s shoulders, "I have a share of what Ah Wei sent back." When preparing gifts for Qin Chi every year, they usually prepare one for the elders in Huizhou, including Jin Ling and Yinlong. Jin Ling didn''t really complain, just nagging a few words. After Song Jin asked a few questions with concern, he started talking about Jifang''s business in Huizhou. After integrating the power of the Song family, only a dozen tribes were left who were willing to support Song Jin. Song Jin had no objection to this and opened Jifang branches in various state capitals. They still focused on collecting medicinal materials and developing medicinal farmers. , growing local medicinal materials. There is support from the local branch of the Song family. Therefore, the branch shop was carried out smoothly. The business is still growing, and the medicinal materials collected every year are also of various types and in huge quantities. With the foundation of Song''s Pharmacopoeia, the quality of the medicinal materials is always better than 90% of the medicinal materials on the market. With this, Song Jin was able to get along like a fish in water in a short period of time and became one of the top medicinal merchants in the Great Xia Dynasty. Pharmacists from out of town often come to visit. With memories of past lives, Song Jin took the opportunity to select some people with good character to cooperate. It was said to be cooperation, but it was a win-win situation. It was like the replacement of medicinal materials. The medicinal materials in different regions were different. Of course, the cooperation with Shun An Commercial Bank remains the same. Ninety percent of the medicinal materials sold by Jifang Pharmacy in Huizhou were sold to Shun''an Trading Company. Jin Ling, the shopkeeper, is very worry-free, and she is quite fat. "Master!" The three of them were talking. Xiao Liuzi''s anxious voice suddenly came from outside. Song Jin asked: "You are so anxious, what happened?" Xiao Liuzi broke in and was about to say something when he saw Jin Ling and Yinlong here again, looking at Song Jin hesitantly. Song Jin said: "Aunt Ling and Aunt Long are not outsiders." "We received news that Qin Xiucai encountered bandits in Yangzhou and his current whereabouts are unknown." Xiao Liuzi said in one breath. Hearing this, Song Jin stood up suddenly. Outsiders would think they were bandits. Song Jin knew most of Qin Chi''s details, so naturally he didn''t just think of bandits, so he immediately asked a few more questions. Unfortunately, this was the information Xiao Liuzi received, and he didn''t know the rest. Let Xiao Liuzi and others continue to inquire. Song Jinxin decided to go to Yangzhou. He left the pharmacy immediately. Before getting on the carriage, she looked sideways at Qin Qi and Qin Ba, "Have you received the news?" The two were confused for a moment. "What news?" Qin Ba asked. Song Jin said: "I just received the news that your master encountered bandits and disappeared in Yangzhou." When he said this, Song Jin paid attention to the two people''s reactions. They were also shocked to find that they should have not received the news before. Song Jin, who was originally going back to Qinjiagou, went to see Shopkeeper Tao instead. Since Qin Chi went to the Imperial College to study, Shopkeeper Tao has shifted his focus to the capital. Wait until Qin Chi finishes taking the provincial examination. Shopkeeper Tao will then leave Huizhou Mansion together. It''s not easy to find Shopkeeper Tao now. It was Qin Ba who secretly inquired and found out that he was at the bookstore in the county town. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! There is a stronghold behind Shun''an Bookstore. When Song Jin hurried over, he just saw Shopkeeper Tao and before she asked, Shopkeeper Tao ushered her into the backyard. "Madam, please come in." Shopkeeper Tao respectfully invited her into a side room. Song Jin wanted to say something, but he smelled the smell of medicine coming out of it, and his heart was shocked. He immediately ignored everything, opened the ajar door and went in. Suddenly, he saw a person sitting quietly on a chair in the room. He was wearing a moon-white inner coat and a long gown, with a simple hairpin on his dark hair, as if he had just woken up. When he raised his calm, watery eyes, he looked at her gently and firmly. Song Jin was speechless for a moment. "I never wanted to see my wife like this again, cough." Qin Chi felt uncomfortable in his throat and coughed as if he couldn''t hold back. His handsome face looked a bit sickly, and there was a faint purple color around his eyes. Song Jin calmed down and walked to Qin Chi as calmly as possible. He squatted down involuntarily, reached out to hold one of his hands, and asked softly: "Is your husband sick?" Qin Chi looked at her with a smile but did not answer. Song Jin held his hand slightly and said, "I, as a wife, did not fulfill my responsibilities and failed to stay with you when you were sick." "Then how shall I punish you?" Qin Chi took advantage of the situation and held her hand, "I''ll punish you to stay with me from now on. How about that?" Song Jin held his hand tightly, but did not respond. It was quiet for a long time. Song Jin changed the subject and said, "I heard that you encountered bandits, so I came to Shopkeeper Tao anxiously to inquire about the situation. I didn''t expect to see you in person." As she spoke, she avoided his gaze. "It''s great that you''re okay." Song Jin''s eyes fell on the hands held by the two of them, not daring to look up at Qin Chi. She wouldn''t promise that because she knew she couldn''t do it, and it would be too unrealistic. If it was false, she couldn''t say it. In the past, in front of Qin Chi, she didn''t feel burdened by talking nonsense. She didn''t know why she wanted to get into trouble now, or why she cared about whether she could do it or not. Qin Chi felt funny and angry in his heart, "Whether it''s a lie or not, why don''t you give me something to make me happy?" "I have been married to my husband for many years, and I know that you like to listen to lies." Song Jin raised his eyes and glanced at Qin Chi. Those autumn-like eyes contained a slight smile. Qin Chi, a man with such an iron heart, unconsciously softened a little. He pulled her up as if in a daze and let her sit on his lap. Song Jin was a little embarrassed at first, as if she was afraid of hurting him. She wanted to get up, but Qin Chi forcibly hugged her, pressed her into his arms, and smelled the fragrance of her hair. It took a long time to sit there. Even the tea on the table has gone cold. Chapter 229 Cant die for now Chapter 229 I cant die for the time being Qin Chi did encounter bandits in Yangzhou. But luckily nothing happened, and it was said that Qin Chi had disappeared intentionally. Song Jin was the first to break the silence, "Ms. sir, have the bandits been caught?" "All dead." Qin Chi was reluctant to let go of her, "It''s not a big deal. Students with top grades may have accidents every time. Who did it behind the scenes has not yet been found out. He is just one of the people who took the provincial examination this year "Some people are so shameless. They exclude dissidents before taking the exam." Song Jin was angry for Qin Chi, with a bit of anger on his face, "My husband must find out and teach the other party a lesson. It is best to retaliate with tooth." "Haha, this is a bit difficult." Qin Chi didn''t want to hurt his wife, but he still had to face the reality, "If the people behind the scenes dare to do this, the family must be either rich or noble. I am just a peasant student, with no power or power." There will always be traces of what has been done. When something happens to the other party, they will definitely be suspicious of him. This matter is not urgent. We will wait until we find out who it is. Song Jin raised his head and looked directly at Qin Chi, "Does Mr. Xian have any suspicions in his heart?" "The scope is not large. There will be news in a few days." Qin Chi was as steady as an old dog about this. He was uninjured, just caught a cold. I came to the county town to register for the provincial examination. The matter was settled, so naturally I had to go back to Qinjiagou with Song Jin. Until I got on the carriage returning home. Song Jin still felt unsteady and uneasy. When she saw Qin Chi''s sick appearance, she finally thought of one thing. If he went back like this. Was seen by people from the Lao Qin family. Um, will those rumors that are almost gone start to rise again? Two years ago, everyone said that Qin Chi''s days were numbered, and two years later, he became ill again, which just confirmed the rumors. "What does the doctor say about your condition?" Song Jin asked warmly, "I know a few powerful doctors. I can ask them to come and take a look at you." He spoke three points lighter than usual. "Need not." Qin Chi seemed to have read through her thoughts. He wanted to say that it was no big deal, but he ended up saying, "I''m just the same as before. I can''t die for the time being." This answer made Song Jin''s heart twitch slightly. Worried about Qin Chi''s state of mind, Song Jin did not ask any more questions and made up her mind to ask about Doctor Jing''s condition when he came over. With this idea in mind, I went back to Qinjiagou. Qin Chi was helped out of the carriage by Song Jin. That sickly look was noticed by many people. Sure enough, not long after, the news spread that Qin Chi went home to recuperate, and even the old clan leader and several elders of the clan came to visit. The reason was that Qin Chi wanted to take the provincial examination. I''m sick, can I still participate? After the elders in the clan came to visit the patient, the second and third bedrooms also came. I learned that Qin Chi had an old problem. Everyone inevitably thinks too much! You must know that Song Jincai refuted the rumor before, saying that Qin Chi''s health was okay, and they believed it at the time. How long had it just passed? People come back sick. "Da Lang''s wife, he, Da Lang, is he really all right?" When Xiao Liu caught no one, she rushed to Song Jin''s side in a panic to inquire in a low voice. When I asked the question, my voice was a little shaky. Song Jin knew that she was concerned about Qin Chi, "He said it''s the same as before and nothing will happen for the time being." "This, this, this, alas..." Xiao Liu was in no mood to say anything more. Song Jin knew that she had misunderstood again. But not only them, but also she was a little unsure. Song Jin knew that Qin Chi would occasionally pretend to be sick. But it is a well-known fact that he has been sick and weak since childhood. It was Qin Chi herself who said whether she had been cured or not, and she didn''t know how to take a pulse or make a diagnosis. He wanted to find a doctor to treat Qin Chi, but he refused. At this time, in the living room. Qin Chi met wave after wave of people. When he saw his parents, he originally said a few words to them not to worry, but the old patriarch and others came over, as well as his third uncle and others, all came to inquire about his health. Qin Chi smiled and said it was not a big problem. After the others left, the second and third bedrooms also came. Now even Old Man Qin and Qin Mingsong are coming together. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The laughter of children could be heard in the courtyard, which made the atmosphere in the hall even more gloomy. When Old Man Qin saw his eldest grandson sitting in the hall, he had an extraordinary bearing. However, his poor health made him feel regretful and intolerable: "Do you still want to take the provincial examination? I heard that there are three examinations in the provincial examination, and each examination takes three days. Can you withstand this? Or you can give up." Old man Qin said this without any malice. I''m just worried about Qin Chi''s health, I hope he will put in less trouble, and I hope he can live longer. Qin Chi smiled gently: "My grandson is unfilial and makes my grandfather worried." "I don''t want a white-haired person to send a black-haired person." Old Man Qin had long been mentally prepared for this. Its not just Old Man Qin. Almost all the adults in the Lao Qin family accepted this reality. Just like at this moment, Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San both felt depressed and did not say a word, as did Qin Mingsong next to them. Only Mr. Li and Boss Qin looked normal. This looks like he has a big heart. In fact, the couple firmly believed that their son could live a long time. After all, good people don''t live long, and disasters last for thousands of years. My son is a good person in the eyes of outsiders. How can I, as a parent, not know about his character? Song Jin asked people to make tea for everyone. I made another cup of ginseng tea for Qin Chi. After Qin Chi picked up the tea bowl and smelled it, he raised his eyes and looked at Song Jin. There were stars in the depths of his eyes, full of joyful light. Qin Mingsong met Qin Chi when he was in the capital. I have heard about Qin Chi''s talent and fame for a long time. It is impossible to say that I am not jealous. However, seeing his frail posture and thinking that he does not have much life, most of the jealousy hidden in my heart has dissipated. A dying man. So what if you have a great talent? Therefore, after a long time, Qin Mingsong didn''t say much, "When I met Dalang in the capital, his health was not that bad." "Unlucky, I encountered a group of bandits in Yangzhou. I fell into the water while escaping. I stayed outside for another night. I hurried back to Huizhou and didn''t dare to relax for a moment." No, I fell ill just after I came back! Later, Qin Chi didn''t say much about this sentence, and everyone heard it. Boss Qin was surprised, "You also encountered bandits, why are you talking about it now?" Qin Chi said helplessly: "It''s hard for me to mention this in front of the clan leader and the others. They are already old, what should they do if they are scared?" "I''m getting older too!" Old man Qin glared at Qin Chi. Qin Chi chuckled and said, "Grandpa is getting stronger and stronger, so he is not old." Old man Qin felt very comfortable hearing these words. He pointed at Qin Chi and seemed to want to scold him but didn''t. It did dispel the dull atmosphere in the hall. Song Jin could only say that Mr. Xian was very capable. The rhythm of this speaking is always controlled by him. Chapter 230 Its really cold Chapter 230 Its really cold After Song Jin served the tea. He retreated to sit down next to Qin Chi and asked concernedly: "Are you tired? If you are tired, go back to the dormitory to rest." This was said in front of everyone. It was said that it was for Qin Chi, but in fact it was also for other people. Qin Chi coughed in time. The couple had a rare tacit understanding. As expected, the others were not fools. They understood the meaning instantly and let Qin Chi go down to rest. "Dalang, when you get better, we will go to the provincial capital together." Qin Mingsong suddenly said. Qin Chi asked: "What are you doing in the provincial capital?" "It''s nothing. I just had some free time and I wanted to accompany you to the provincial examination." Regardless of whether Qin Mingsong''s words are believed or not, it is perfectly normal for elders to take the initiative to accompany their juniors to participate in the imperial examination. On the contrary, if the junior refuses, he will be a little ignorant. So Qin Chi smiled warmly and said, "Okay, I''ll ask my uncle to take care of me more when the time comes." "By the way, we are a family." Qin Mingsong stood up to talk to Qin Chi. Qin Chi was helped back to the dormitory by Song Jin. Old Man Qin and his son watched the two of them leave, feeling heavy in their hearts. The dark cloud of Qin Chi''s death always hangs in their hearts. "Lao Si and Da Lang are studying in the capital. Can you find an imperial doctor to take a look at them?" Qin Laosan said something that everyone thought was unrealistic. "Imperial physician, he treats noble people in the palace. Where can ordinary people like us get his turn?" When Old Qin said this, he looked at Qin Mingsong, who was silent at the side. Qin Mingsong clenched his fists to hide the jealousy in his heart, and said in a calm tone: "I am just an ordinary student in the capital. I am far less successful than Da Lang. I heard that I even went to the palace to meet the emperor." Everyone in the room was shocked when they heard this. They didn''t even know that Qin Chi had passed the emperor''s summons. This is a matter of honor! If you tell me, it will give face to Lao Qins parents! Compared with the reactions of others, Li was the only one who looked dazed, and then left the hall without even saying hello. Everyone just thought that Mr. Li was sad. The ecstatic old man Qin and his son suddenly returned to their original shape. So what about the greatest glory? For Qin Chi, it was just a passing cloud. Everyone is mentally prepared. It''s just that it''s really over, so I can''t help but feel sad. Boss Qin thought about it for a moment and said, "Dalang said he just felt cold occasionally and will get better in a few days. You don''t need to worry too much about his health." "Brother, there is no need to comfort us. The doctor told Dalang when he was a child, and we are well prepared." Qin Laoer was almost wiping tears as he said this. Old Qin sighed and got up and went out. Then Qin Lao Er, Qin Lao San and others left with heavy hearts. Boss Qin stretched out his hand to persuade him to stay, "Hey, don''t leave..." "What''s it called?" Li appeared with her granddaughter in her arms. Boss Qin touched the back of his head and said with a naive smile: "Daughter-in-law, I just want to tell them that if Da Lang says it''s just a cold, then it''s really a cold." "Come on, my son must have his own motives for doing this. Don''t ruin his business." Ms. Li warned him in a low voice. Boss Qin nodded repeatedly. And the other side. In the young couple''s bedroom. Song Jin handed the account book that Qin Yi had obtained to Qin Chi for review, "I''ve been back for two days, and I wanted to return the account book to Qin Yi, but he said that I would keep it first." "Thank you for your hard work, madam." Qin Chi learned about what happened in Fuzhou on the way. "Just seeing the cold description made me break out in a cold sweat. The danger... Fortunately, the lady responded appropriately, otherwise Qin Yi would have died and come back alive." "A fluke, a fluke." After Song Jin answered, he realized that he was a little unfamiliar, and he quickly added, "That''s thanks to the noble people from the capital." Qin Chi continued while flipping through the account books: "The other party is the eldest son of the eldest princess, the King of Chu County." Under normal circumstances, only the eldest son of a prince can be named a county king, so the current emperor cannot help but favor the eldest princess. Of course, the eldest princess is indeed a powerful person. She has given many suggestions to the current emperor and done many things that are beneficial to people''s livelihood. Qin Chi''s face showed fatigue. Song Jin took away the account book from his hand and said, "Let''s not read it for now. Recuperating from illness is the top priority right now." Qin Chi smiled and nodded, "Then you will rest with me?" Song Jin wanted to shake his head, but when he saw his eyes, he nodded unconsciously. He helped Qin Chi sleep on the bed. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin lay sideways next to him, put one hand on the back of his hand on his abdomen, and patted it gently. It was patting very rhythmically, just like how she had coaxed her son and daughter to sleep in the past two days. Little kids love it. Usually people can fall asleep after a short time like this. The person in front of him was Qin Chi. It felt like every beat was hitting the apex of his heart. "Madam, I want to tell you something solemnly." Qin Chi realized that he might be overdoing it, so it was better to explain clearly as soon as possible, "I just slept outside all night on the day I met the bandits and accidentally caught the wind and cold." "Well, I understand." Song Jin''s reaction was calm. Qin Chi added: "Sickness comes like a mountain, and goes away like a thread. I originally thought that I had taken good care of myself over the years, but I didn''t know until I got sick that I thought it was just me. Doctor Jing said that I have not taken good care of myself in the past two years. , thinking too much. "Then you''re not going to take the provincial examination?" As soon as Song Jin said these words, Qin Chi choked up instantly. The lady''s focus was different from what he thought. Shouldn''t she say that she would take good care of him in the future? Qin Chi simply closed his eyes. I don''t want to talk to her at this time for fear of being angry to death. For several days, Qin Chi refused to see guests on the pretext of recuperating from illness. And the news that he was about to die spread as expected. The person who came here specifically to inquire quickly reported the matter back to his master, but he didn''t know that it was the other person''s inquiry that allowed Qin Chi to find out who was plotting against him. It''s really a matter of checking. "Yuan Shipeng?" Qin Chi pressed the secret letter on the table, "The eldest grandson of the Minister of Industry. This is returning to his hometown to take the provincial examination." Shopkeeper Tao asked, "Do you know this person, sir?" "How could we not know each other when we were studying in the Imperial College? He is somewhat knowledgeable, but he is conceited. He often suppresses some poor students. He is an out-and-out, narrow-minded villain." With Qin Chi''s talent and learning, he was a jealous presence in the Imperial College. Yuan Shipeng also made trouble for Qin Chi, but Qin Chi was highly regarded by the principal and other adults, so he could do nothing to Qin Chi. What''s more, Qin Chi''s private life is clean. Throughout the year, he spent most of his time in the Imperial Academy, and he couldn''t find any loopholes if he wanted to scheme against him. Shopkeeper Tao asked again: "How should we teach him a lesson?" "Isn''t the imperial examination what he cares about most? Then he will be disqualified from the examination." Qin Chi has grown up and has never suffered a loss at the hands of anyone. He has never suffered a loss even with his wife. Immediately, Qin Chi whispered a few instructions to Shopkeeper Tao. Chapter 231 Admission to the Provincial Examination Chapter 231 Admission to the Provincial Examination Late July. Qin Mingsong came to Qin Chi and said that it was best to go to the provincial capital a few days in advance to avoid any accidents that would delay the exam. Qin Chi had no objection. Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao Er expressed their intention to go together. Under Qin Chi''s resentful gaze, Song Jin gritted her teeth and said that she was worried about his health and wanted to accompany him for the exam. So when we set off, there were two carriages. Qin Chi and Song Jin had one car to themselves. People are sitting in the carriage. Song Jin''s hand was held by Qin Chi. "Your hands are cold, are they cold?" Song Jin asked with concern. Qin Chi shook his head, "It''s not cold." The weather is already hot, but it is not yet cold. This is a physical problem. Song Jin couldn''t help but nag: "You said it''s rare for me to stay at home and spend a few more days with my children. Why do you insist on me coming to take the exam?" "Doctor Jing said that my mood is related to the health of my body." Qin Chi said seriously. Song Jin was shocked by this reason. Serious nonsense is also a skill. Do you think she doesn''t know that his illness has already been cured? The carriage left the front of Huizhou Mansion and met up with Meng Qingrui, Lu Yanji and Le Yan. Among them, Le Yan has just been selected as a scholar, and this time he is here to accumulate experience. When the three of them saw Song Jin again, they were all stunned for a moment! He was not shocked by Song Jin''s beauty, but by her ordinaryness. Especially Meng Qingrui, who blurted out: "What a good Qin Qian! How long has it been since you changed your wife?!" As soon as these words came out. Qin Chi''s smile faltered. What if you want to crack someone''s stupid head off? Lu Yanji wanted to cover Meng Qingrui''s mouth, but was a step too late. Le Yan looked at Song Jin seriously. Without the surprise at first sight, his facial features were still very similar. "Probably, it''s still the same one." Le Yan said uncertainly. Qin Chi took Song Jin''s hand, "What should I do? It''s true. My wife is just worried that her appearance will bring trouble, so she just tried to cover it up a little. The man named Meng is blind." After this mention. They found out too. Song Jin smiled and said, "I''ve met you all." "What a sister-in-law." Meng Qingrui also noticed it at this time and apologized hastily, "I made a mistake at the moment. I''m sorry, sister-in-law. I didn''t mean any harm." After saying that, he bowed to Song Jin. Song Jin did not accept his courtesy, "I know Mr. Meng doesn''t have to be like this." Qin Chi just wanted to say something. Qin Mingsong happened to come over to say hello to the three of them. Lu Yanji also knew Qin Mingsong, and the two exchanged pleasantries when they met, and later even rode in a carriage. Meng Qingrui and Le Yan originally wanted to ride in a carriage with Qin Chi, but when they saw Song Jin here, they couldn''t bring it up, so they could only go back to their own cars. It is not very far from Huizhou to Fucheng, only a three to five day trip. Song Jin took precautions along the way, worried that something might happen, but unexpectedly everything went smoothly. In fact, stability is not without reason. Yuan Shipeng, who had done evil things before, had been keeping an eye on Qin Chi. But he sent people to Qinjiagou to investigate and found out that Qin Chi was terminally ill. He believed it for a while and stopped paying attention to Qin Chi''s affairs. Everyone came to the provincial capital. Lived in a rented house. Qin Chi is very low-key. Since arriving in the provincial capital, he has never left home, keeping books in hand every day, and he declined any invitations he received. Meng Qingrui and Le Yan couldn''t sit still at first, but when they saw Qin Chi acting like this, they calmed down. Before the exam, thank guests behind closed doors. However, Qin Mingsong often goes out when invited. Occasionally, when I have free time, I will give Lu Yanji some pointers. On the contrary, it was Qin Chi. Qin Mingsong never gave any advice once. Song Jin saw all this. He stays with Qin Chi every day and is responsible for taking care of his food, clothing and daily life. He has to personally inspect everything at his entrance and personal belongings. Not to mention, poisonous mushroom soup was once discovered. But in the end, the investigation revealed that the cook accidentally mixed in the mushrooms when she bought them. Song Jin didn''t believe it was an accident. Fire the cook and take charge of the cooking himself. Privately, Song Jin wondered: "What is Qin Mingsong doing in the provincial capital? He goes out to meet guests every day and has no consciousness of accompanying him for the exam." "Do you really think that my uncle is here to take the exam?" Qin Chi was funny and angry. Of course Song Jin knew that Qin Mingsong had a purpose for coming to the provincial capital, but that didn''t stop her from having opinions about him, "When I go out to see people, I use the name of accompanying him for the exam. Others really think that he cares about his juniors, and he''s so fake. " "This is also my uncle''s ability." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi didn''t say that his uncle had been in the capital for the past two years and didn''t look for him much at first. Later, when he became famous and was even summoned by the emperor, he came to look for him when he had time. In the name of Yiwen Friends, I got to know some students from the Imperial College. As long as Qin Mingsong doesn''t hinder him, Qin Chi has no objection to this. Rural Examination, also known as Dabi and Qiuwei. The emperor personally appointed officials to preside over various places. The chief envoy''s office will assign officials to take charge of specific matters. Those who work inside the examination room are called inner curtain officers, who are mainly responsible for invigilating and marking exams; those who work outside the examination room are called outer curtain officers, who are mainly responsible for managing the affairs of the examination room. On the sixth day of August. A banquet was held. All the officials inside and outside the palace will attend the banquet. After the banquet, the inner curtain officer entered the examination room. In order to avoid the leakage of test questions and cheating in the examination room. The examiner sealed the door, and the inner curtain officer stopped going out. The official exam is in the ninth grade of junior high school. Candidates will enter the examination room in advance. On the morning of the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Song Jin prepared meals early. After everyone had breakfast, they walked out to the examination room. Candidates must undergo strict body searches when entering the examination room. When Qin Chi and others came over, there was already a long queue at the entrance. "Oh, I thought we were very early. Didn''t these people sleep? They got up in the middle of the night and lined up." Meng Qingrui stood on tiptoes and looked forward. Lu Yanji was not angry, "Are you really blind? Didn''t you see that some people asked servants to queue up? When it is almost their turn, they will change themselves." "This, can it still be like this?" Meng Qingrui, a country bumpkin, has learned a lot. Qin Chi and others made little movement. It just happened that someone noticed them. In other words, he noticed Qin Chi. In the past, Qin Chi blended in among the students and was just an ordinary student. Now, no matter how low-key he is, he is different, as if he stands out from the crowd. Song Jin also discovered the young man in Jinyi. The other party didn''t queue up. They should be candidates who had already asked their servants to line up. When he looked at Qin Chi, his eyes were like a poisonous snake, which made Song Jin very uncomfortable. "Is that person plotting against my husband?" Song Jin asked Old Li Tou in a low voice. Lao Li followed her gaze and said, "This is the person, not a good guy." "Then be careful and don''t let him cause trouble today." Song Jin''s eyes were wary. Old Li Tou wanted to say that it was not necessary, the young master had already made arrangements. But after thinking about it, there were so many people here talking, so I didnt say anything. Chapter 232 Qin Chis counterattack Chapter 232 Qin Chis counterattack Yuan Shipeng came over without carrying a test basket. His examination basket was held in the hand of his attendant. Seeing Qin Chi waiting in line, Yuan Shipeng almost exploded with anger. He angrily pulled the attendant away from the crowd. In a deserted alley nearby. Yuan Shipeng asked with a ferocious face: "Didn''t you say that a person is about to die? Doesn''t he look like a person who is about to die? I think you are more like a dead person." "M-Sir!" The attendant''s face turned pale, "Everyone in the village said he was about to die." As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Shipeng kicked him in the chest. The attendant suddenly fell back, hitting the wall with his back, and then fell along the wall to the ground. The test basket he was holding was not firmly grasped and fell to the ground. I couldn''t care less about the pain in my body at this time. The entourage knelt at Yuan Shipeng''s feet in great fear, and hurriedly defended: "I don''t know, but the news I found is that he has been sick since he was a child, and the doctor said he will not survive to adulthood! He is twenty years old this year, and many people have seen that he is sick. It looks heavy..." "Asshole!" Yuan Shipeng couldn''t listen to his explanation. Then he raised his foot and kicked the follower in anger. The follower did not dare to evade, and was kicked until his head was bruised, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. Yuan Shipeng did not stop and continued to beat him to death. The Yuan family''s housekeeper and a servant who were guarding the alley had no expression on their faces when they heard the screams inside, as if these were commonplace things. Suddenly, a carriage lost control. It hit the alley, causing the Yuan family''s housekeeper and servants to flee in panic. Yuan Shipeng was also alarmed, stopped beating people, and strode out of the alley to check the situation. At this moment, a skinny young man took the opportunity to run out to the test basket in the alley, pretending to fall, and replaced the hollowed-out brush on the ground with a new one. Tuck the original into your sleeve. He ran out of Scud again, and in the blink of an eye he disappeared. The movement here also attracted the attention of nearby officers and soldiers. The person who lost control of the carriage apologized repeatedly. Fortunately, no one was injured. After a scolding, the coachman led the carriage away. Movement in the alley. It was too late for the Yuan family to cover up, so naturally no one would come to check. "Master, it''s almost your turn to enter." A servant hurried over to report. Yuan Shipeng straightened his clothes, then glared at the beaten attendant on the ground with hatred, "You bitch, I''ll deal with you after I finish the exam." Then he turned to the butler beside him and said sullenly: "Lock him up and don''t allow him to be treated. A slave who works in secret has ruined my important affairs. It is not a pity to die." After saying that, he strode towards the long queue. Another attendant picked up the test basket and other items on the ground and hurriedly followed Yuan Shipeng. Not far away. Song Jin watched all this. There were Lao Li Tou and Qin Qi beside them. Song Jin looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to them, so he asked Old Li Tou softly: "Did your young master arrange it?" "Your husband-in-law did it." Old Li Tou said cheerfully. "clever!" Song Jin thought it was a show. Previously, I really thought Qin Chi was going to swallow his anger. Oh! She is overthinking it! The replaced test pen must have something inside it. Students need to bring their own pen and ink to take the provincial examination. Students participating in the provincial examination need to bring their own examination supplies, such as writing brushes, inkstones, paperweights, and water injectors. In order to prevent candidates from cheating, the inkstone must be thin, the water ink must be made of porcelain, and the brush holder must be hollow. If there is a problem with the brush. That would be interesting. Song Jin stood on the outside looking at Qin Chi. Realizing that Qin Chi was also looking at him, Song Jin smiled brightly at him. The corners of Qin Chi''s mouth gradually raised, and his eyebrows were full of smiles. "No! I didn''t cheat!" "This money is not mine!" At the entrance to the examination room, there was a sudden commotion. Yuan Shipeng was held up by officers and soldiers and wanted to be dragged out. He kept shouting, "I didn''t cheat, I really didn''t! That pen is not mine!" "My grandfather is a minister, I didn''t cheat!" "You **** untouchables, if you don''t go and investigate and clear my name, why are you arresting me?" Yuan Shipeng became arrogant even after being caught, and from time to time he used the name of his grandfather who was a minister. "Master? Sir, my master will not cheat!" The housekeeper of the Yuan family hurried over and said loudly. He wanted to step forward to stop him, but was blocked by officers and soldiers. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! No matter how much Yuan Shipeng yells. It is true that it was found that there was something wrong with his test basket before entering the examination room. Regardless of whether it was true or not, this exam was not for him. Among the people watching. Suddenly someone said loudly: "I know who that student is. He is the grandson of Yuan Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry! I heard him yelling when I got close." "Wow, it turns out to be him!" "His name is Yuan Shipeng. He used to bully his classmates when he was studying. This man is so courageous. He cheats openly and dares to complain." "What are you afraid of when you have a minister in your pocket?" "This **** official''s son..." People outside heard the excitement. The supervisor was impartial and selfless. He checked the brush in his hand and found that it was indeed engraved with dense small characters. The evidence was conclusive, so he asked the officers and soldiers to take Yuan Shipeng to prison. Wait for the provincial examination to be reviewed again. Then, the entry order was quickly restored. A person keeps scheming and scheming, and finally gets himself involved in the scheming. With this incident, Yuan Shipeng''s future was deemed to be cut off. Song Jin had no sympathy for Yuan Shipeng at all. For a person like him who has no bottom line, even if he becomes an official based on the imperial examination, he will not be a good official for the people. What Qin Chi did today might be a meritorious deed. Song Jin thought this and looked at Qin Chi subconsciously. She found that Qin Chi was still looking at her. This made her heart skip a beat, and she silently opened her lips and asked, "What''s wrong?" The smile on Qin Chi''s face became even bigger. This look and demeanor made Song Jin''s heart itch, and she wanted to ask him what he meant? "You are flirting, what are you doing?" Meng Qingrui winked and pushed Qin Chi, "There''s an empty space in front, move forward quickly." Qin Chi glanced at Meng Qingrui. He took two steps forward and followed closely the student in front. Song Jin stood on the outside and watched Qin Chi pass the inspection and enter the examination room carrying an examination basket. He stood for another half-quarter of an hour. Wait for Meng Qingrui and the other three to also go in. Song Jin then turned to leave. When leaving, he saw Qin Mingsong not far away, standing with a young man in rich clothes. The two seemed to be talking about something, and their expressions were very familiar. Qin Mingsong also went out with them earlier. But after arriving here, people dont know where they went. "That''s the young master''s uncle." Old Li glanced at Qin Mingsong, then looked at the young man next to him, "The one next to him is the young master of the Salt Transport Envoy." Song Jin said thoughtfully: "Let''s go back." No need to wait for Qin Mingsong. The group of people took the car back first. Of course, someone was arranged to guard outside the examination room to prevent any of the four people from leaving the examination room early in an accident. Chapter 233 Song Jins ridicule Chapter 233 Song Jins ridicule Qin Chi entered his examination booth in order. Then the door will be locked. The examination room is also called the "number room" and is a small independent room. The conditions were very simple, with only two wooden boards at the top and bottom. Tables, chairs, including the bed for sleeping, all rely on these two wooden boards. In addition, there is a pot of charcoal fire and a candle inside. Charcoal fires are used for heating and for boiling water for cooking. During the exam period, candidates must eat, drink, have sex, and sleep in the room until the end of the exam. Qin Chi rolled up his sleeves and started cleaning. While cleaning, he thought of Yuan Shipeng. After today, he is considered to have become enemies with the Yuan family. A mad dog like Yuan Shipeng would probably get angry at him even if no evidence was found. After cleaning up. Qin Chi began to rest. Only if you get enough sleep can you have the energy to cope with the exam. At about the same time, an official came to sell food, and he spent money to buy the best food. Five or six pieces of thinly sliced ??pork belly, half a plate of boiled vegetables, an egg drop soup, and a bowl of rice cost a full tael of silver. If Qin Chi was really a student from a poor family, he might be scolded. This is ridiculously expensive. Song Jin thought of Qin Chi while eating, and chatted with Qin Qi about the food in the examination room. Old Li Tou next to him heard this and said quickly: "Madam, there is no need to worry, the young master is not a person who would wrong himself... Ahem, you pretend I didn''t say anything." Qin Qi on the side looked at Lao Litou as if he were a fool. Lao Litou and the secret guard are not in the same place. Because the two parties had different responsibilities, there was no interaction between the two parties. It was Qin Qi who changed from the dark to the bright, and had some contact with Lao Litou, but still not much. Qin Qi didn''t expect Lao Litou to be so courageous. How dare you arrange a young master. For their subordinates, this was already a step beyond their reach. Song Jin thought he didn''t see the quarrel between the two of them. When Qin Mingsong came back, he happened to see Song Jin eating, as well as Qin Qi and Lao Li Tou, who were also holding bowls. His eyes flickered slightly. We walked all the way from Qinjiagou to the provincial capital. After living together in the house for these days, Qin Mingsong had already noticed something unusual. For example, the servants following Song Jin looked very simple. Sure enough, the Song family has fallen, but its foundation is still there. Song Xiu, who was born in the family, was stupid. He didn''t know anything and couldn''t connect with the hidden power of the Song family. Qin Mingsong couldn''t find help even if he wanted to. If she had married Song Jin, things might have been different. Now Qin Mingsong regards everyone around Qin Chi as Song Jin''s. Qin Chi is just lucky enough to marry a wife. Not only his luck but also his life have been completely changed. Qin Mingsong couldn''t find a reason. Credit all this to Song Jin. Seeing Qin Chi''s better life, Qin Mingsong felt more regretful. It would have been better if he hadn''t changed his marriage back then. The ancients never deceived me. When marrying a wife, you must marry a virtuous man. There was only a trace of regret at first. As time went by, this trace of regret lingered in my heart and did not dissipate. Instead, it accumulates deeper and deeper. From Song Xiu''s occasional conversations, Qin Mingsong thought that Song Jin liked him at first? The idea started just to listen. Later, it kept amplifying in my heart. Unfortunately, every time he appeared in front of Song Jin, he kept denying this ridiculous idea. Likes and dislikes are easy to distinguish between the two. For example, Qin Mingsong appears now. When Song Jin looked at him, her eyes were full of indifference, even though she was well-bred. "Fourth, have you had dinner?" Boss Qin just walked out of the kitchen and said, "There is food left in the pot for you. If you want to eat, you can get it from the pot." Qin Mingsong smiled warmly and said, "Okay, thank you very much, brother." "Why are you so polite as a family?" When Boss Qin came out, he was still holding a big bowl in his hand. There is a big bowl full of rice, with braised gravy on it, and several large pieces of fat and thin braised pork, which makes people very appetizing just by looking at it. If he were a real servant, he would immediately serve Qin Mingsong to eat and drink. No one here treats Qin Mingsong as their master. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Therefore, if Qin Mingsong wanted to eat, he could only go into the kitchen to get food by himself. After finishing the meal, Boss Qin had to go outside the examination room to replace Boss Qin and come back. Boss Qin would be guarding outside the examination room in the evening. After everyone has finished eating, everyone goes about his or her own business. When Song Jin was about to return to his room, he met Qin Mingsong blocking his way in the corridor. Qin Mingsong stood in the middle of the corridor with his hands behind his hands. It was obvious that he wanted to see Song Jin for something. Qin Mingsong glanced at Qin Qi and then said to Song Jin, "I have something I want to talk to you about in private." "Brother-in-law, if you have anything to say, feel free to say so. Ah Qi is my maid, and there is nothing she doesn''t know." Song Jin said calmly. Qin Mingsong said: "It will involve your Song family." Song Jin''s expression froze when he heard this. After a moment of silence, she raised her hand and waved back, signaling Qin Qi to avoid it. Qin Qi bowed and bowed before silently retreating. He said he was stepping back, but he was just standing farther away. I guess I couldn''t hear the two talking, but I could see the distance between them. Qin Mingsong stared at Song Jin with complicated eyes, "You and I missed our marriage due to some strange combination of circumstances. Do we still hate Xiu''er in our hearts?" "What nonsense are you talking about?" Song Jin''s voice was light and to the point, "Maybe at first I hated Xiu''er for not caring about family ties, but now I''m very grateful to Xiu''er for exchanging relatives, otherwise I would be the one who suffered. Qin Mingsong, what you did outside I know everything about it, including your replacement of Xiu''er''s miscarriage." Qin Mingsong''s pupils tightened. Before coming here, I had countless drafts in my mind, but they all came to nothing because of this sentence. Song Jin continued: "When you stand in front of me, do you think that the connections you have made are enough to compete with me? Who are you relying on, the Salt Transport Envoy?" Qin Mingsong clenched his fists, his nails almost digging into his flesh. Standing here and asking Song Jin to chat alone, he really thought he was confident. Just a merchant''s daughter. So what if you have strength? "Aren''t you afraid that I will publicize your life experience?" Qin Mingsong said gloomily. The decency I just maintained. He was easily broken by Song Jin''s few words. Therefore, Qin Mingsong stopped pretending, "As the daughter of a criminal and the enemy behind the Song family, as long as the other party knows your existence, can they still allow you to live?" "Oh!" Song Jin sneered, "This makes me wonder, how did you pass the exam?" If something happens to the Song sisters. What good can the Qin family gain by harboring the two sisters? It was impossible for Qin Mingsong not to have thought of this. What he said was just to test Song Jin. Then Song Jin looked Qin Mingsong up and down with his disdainful eyes. After a long while, when his fists were sweating, she said calmly: "If Xiu''er''s origins are unclear, how can you, Qin Mingsong, be innocent? Think about where the money you spend comes from." Chapter 234 No need for tit-for-tat Chapter 234 No need for tit-for-tat Qin Mingsong came to see Song Jin for his own purpose. But now it was different from what he imagined. He originally wanted to ease the relationship between the two parties, but unexpectedly, with just a few words, the relationship did not ease, but instead became more tense. This was not the result he wanted. Qin Mingsong said in his usual tone: "I was confused just now and said something quick and angry. Please forgive me. I didn''t come here to quarrel with you. I mainly wanted to clear up the misunderstanding. That''s all. As a family, there is no need to be tit-for-tat. He was so calm, but it made Song Jin look aggressive. Now even she admired him a little. The shame hidden deep in her heart was exposed by her so nakedly, and a person who should have been so angry could still be so calm. Recall all the things in the past life. Song Jin suddenly didn''t want to say another word to him. After bypassing Qin Mingsong, she was about to leave. Qin Mingsong turned around and said: "I know how much you were involved in the matter between me and Xiu''er. I have paid the price for it. Everything in the past, who was right and who was wrong, will be put aside in one stroke. I hope there will be peace in the future. get along." Song Jin paused. Without looking back, she spoke, "Repay vengeance with straightness, and repay kindness with kindness." After leaving this sentence, Song Jin strode away. As soon as Qin Qi saw him, he quickly caught up with Song Jin. Qin Mingsong stood there for a long time without responding, with a sinister look in his eyes. What did Song Xiu say at the beginning? That Song Jin can''t forget him? Oh! Believe what the crazy woman said, he is indeed crazy too. Walk to the corner of the corridor. Qin Qi glanced back, then lowered his head and followed Song Jin. Having been with Song Jin for so long, she could naturally tell that Song Jin was not in a good mood at the moment. Song Jin didn''t go out after that. On the tenth day of the lunar month, in the afternoon. Song Jin asked someone to boil a pot of hot water, prepared food, and then went to Gongyuan to pick up the guests. As soon as he walked to the door, he saw Qin Chi getting off the carriage. It was Boss Qin who was guarding outside the Gongyuan and received the person in advance. "My husband, did you hand in the paper in advance?" Song Jin hurriedly greeted him. Qin Chi subconsciously wanted to hug her, but paused midway and whispered softly with a slight smile: "I handed in the paper a little early. Does the lady have anything to eat? My husband is hungry." "Then come in quickly. I''ve prepared hot water and food. Do you want to take a bath first or eat first?" Song Jin said softly and gently. Qin Chi listened patiently and chose to take a shower first. Boss Qin and others next to him looked at it, and they were all very curious. Wait for the young couple to enter the house. Qin Laoer clicked his tongue and said curiously: "Brother, the Dalang''s expression has changed too quickly. When we picked him up just now, his face was expressionless, as if he was enduring something. Take a look at him after he saw his wife. , his expression immediately softened." "He has a bit of a mysophobia. He couldn''t take a shower during the exam, and his expression is almost understandable." Boss Qin wanted to make amends for his son. Qin Laoer chuckled, "I know, I understand!" "What do you understand?" Boss Qin looked at him. Lao Li listened to the two chatting and pricked up his ears. This is the gossip of the young master. Or a fatal complaint from the elders of the young master. After holding it in for a long time, Qin Laoer choked out a sentence: "I''m henpecked. Just like my eldest brother, I''m afraid of my wife." "Go away! I mean, dick, I haven''t beaten you in these years, are you itchy?" Mr. Qin laughed and cursed, pretending to kick him. "Hahaha." There was a burst of laughter at the door, not just from one person. Qin Chi, who was teased and henpecked by his elders, knew nothing about it. He is enjoying the attention from his wife. When Qin Chi was taking a comfortable bath, he felt regretful in his heart. When he took part in the imperial examination, he didn''t bring his wife with him. What a life he had lived. This time with my wife by my side, it was extremely appropriate. After bathing and eating delicious food, I felt even more comfortable. Drink the remaining sip of tonic soup. Qin Chi took out the handkerchief and wiped his mouth and hands. When he put the handkerchief down, he said to Song Jin, "Madam, I have decided." "What did your husband decide?" Song Jin looked sideways slightly. "I''ve decided, when I take the test. Others don''t have to bring it, but I must bring it with me." Qin Chi''s voice was very firm. Song Jin was surprised and asked: "What does this mean?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi smiled mysteriously and let her guess. Not long after, Lu Yanji also came back, followed by Meng Qingrui and Le Yan. The three of them were exhausted. When I came back, I chose to take a shower before eating. In order to avoid affecting the subsequent exams, the four of them unanimously did not mention the content of the first exam. They chatted for a few irrelevant words and then went back to their rooms to rest. This is to recharge your batteries for the next exam. Early the next morning, the four of them got up early. After sweeping away the previous depression, we gathered together to ponder what content would be tested in the next exam. The content of this examination is still mainly based on the Four Books and Five Classics and Ce Questions. In addition to testing the candidates'' mastery of what they have learned, there is also the use of imperial edicts, judgments, tables, imperial edicts and other literary styles. At the same time, four or five items on current affairs and government affairs will be extracted, and personal comments or opinions will be expressed based on the theory of Confucian classics. "Qian, what issues do you think will arise in current affairs?" Meng Qingrui looked with burning eyes at Qin Chi, who was drinking tea quietly at the side. Le Yan and Lu Yanji looked at Qin Chi at the same time, hoping that he could get the question right. Qin Chi put down the tea bowl gently, "In recent years, there have been a lot of things happening in the court. For example, insect diseases in Anqing Mansion, water conservancy in the south, drought, snow disasters in the north, and rampant pirates, etc., are all problems that the court urgently needs to solve. " Hearing this, the three of them were thoughtful. Qin Mingsong interjected, "There is also the northwest. I heard there might be a war." Qin Chi glanced at Qin Mingsong indifferently, "Where did this news come from, uncle?" "I heard it occasionally." Qin Mingsong didn''t say much, obviously he wouldn''t mention the person behind it. Qin Chi went through the people Qin Mingsong had met recently and quickly targeted the young master of the Salt Transport Envoy. Don''t underestimate the Salt Transporter. This is a third-rank official of the imperial court. Qin Chi didn''t speak, but Meng Qingrui and the other three were surprised. "War is no small matter." Although the important affairs of the imperial court were still far away from them, as scholars they were still concerned about it. The three of them began to ask Qin Mingsong in detail, and Qin Mingsong followed up with a talk. It''s approaching noon. A few people had lunch. They rushed to Gongyuan together with the examination basket. Passed three exams in a row, lasting nine days. When the last day was over, Meng Qingrui''s three wilted eggplants stood with Qin Chi, making Qin Chi''s tall and straight figure look more leisurely and calm, with an extraordinary temperament. This person is afraid of comparison. When they stood together, even the girl''s family looked at Qin Chi. There are bold girls who have already made secret glances. When Song Jin went to pick him up, he saw a dark look on his face and said to Qin Qi next to him: "You girl who has not left the palace now, why don''t you have any reserve at all?" Qin Qi lowered his head and smiled. Chapter 235 After the rural examination Chapter 235 After the Provincial Examination Go back to the rental house. Meng Qingrui and the others took the lead in bathing and eating, and then slept in darkness. Qin Chi was the same. He even met Lao Li Tou before going to bed. Qin Chi was still inexplicably unhappy when he learned that Qin Mingsong had gone to see Song Jin and chatted in private for a long time. The time was not long and it was still under his eyes. His eyes are not blind. The Song sisters treat their brother-in-law differently. He even participated in the fight for the marriage. He is the one who is despised. "Fortunately, I was rejected..." Qin Chi murmured. When he said these words, he unconsciously raised the corners of his lips. "Sir, what is he doing?" Old Li Tou suspected Qin Mingsong''s intentions. Qin Chi found an excuse for Qin Mingsong, "When he applied for a marriage contract with Bai Cuiwei in private, my wife ruined it and forced him to take a concubine, so he must have a grudge." "This was eight hundred years ago." Lao Li was doubtful. So he asked whether to take precautions before it happened. Qin Chi added: "Just be on guard against him a little. I still know a little bit about my uncle. He has been good at plotting and playing tricks since he was a child. He seems to be honest but hypocritical in his treatment of others. These are not considered true in my eyes." Shortcomings are harmless as long as they dont harm anyone. "Hasn''t he harmed anyone?" "Currently, my brother-in-law only caused harm to his back house, and nothing happened to the rest of the family. The family supports my brother-in-law''s education, but it''s not without income." Qin Chi was concerned about Qin Mingsong''s trick on him. Qin Chi has not taken it to heart these years. He had the support of his maternal grandfather''s family behind him. Qin Chi didn''t want the resources of the old Qin family, so his uncle could take them away if he wanted. Qin Mingsong never knew. It was precisely because he was too good at calculating and calculated on his own nephew that he missed more. Qin Chi doesn''t care about his intentions, but he won''t help him. You must know that the gentlemen who taught Qin Chi since childhood were all carefully selected by his grandfather and uncle. Their knowledge and character are first-class. If Qin Mingsong had been kind to Qin Chi since he was a child, just what leaked from Qin Chi''s fingers would be enough for Qin Mingsong to struggle for ten years. Lost the watermelon and picked up the sesame seeds, that''s what Qin Mingsong did. Qin Mingsong doesn''t know yet. If the lives of Li and Qin Chi are exposed in the future, the feeling of regret will last forever. Then Qin Chi asked: "Where is Yuan Shipeng, how is he doing?" "The person is still in prison." Old Li Tou clicked his tongue and said, "That kid hasn''t realized how serious the consequences are. He is wreaking havoc in the prison, waiting for his grandfather, the minister, to rescue him." "Unbelievably stupid." Qin Chi had known for a long time that Yuan Shipeng was not a very smart person, "I think Yuan Shangshu is also very worried now. How to resolve this matter depends on the mood of the Holy Emperor." Old Li Tou laughed and said, "What a bastard!" Just as the two guessed. Now the Yuan family in the capital wished they had never given birth to Yuan Shipeng. He caused such great disasters that they still had to write to them to save him. As a result, on the same day, the Yuan family kicked Yuan Shipeng out of the house and claimed that he was no longer a member of the Yuan family. It was very easy to give up. They didn''t even arrange for anyone to investigate. However, this news has not yet reached the provincial capital due to the long distance. "Tuk-tuk." There was a knock on the door, neither light nor heavy. Qin Chi asked: "Who is it?" "Ms. sir, I just made ginseng tea and brought it to you." Song Jin''s gentle voice sounded outside the door. Qin Chi stood up and spoke. When Song Jin came in, he saw Lao Li Tou and asked, "Did I disturb your discussion?" "No, no." Old Li Tou denied. So, under Qin Chi''s gaze, he resigned wisely. Qin Chi took the ginseng tea handed over by Song Jin, put it on the coffee table aside, and then pulled her to sit down. "My lady has worked hard these days. Without my lady to watch over me, something might happen to me." "That''s an exaggeration." Song Jin pursed her lips and smiled. "There is no exaggeration. Think about that bowl of poisonous mushroom soup. If I drank it, I would not die but also delay the exam." Qin Chi''s people are also investigating the mushrooms. It was found out that the cook went to the market to buy vegetables normally and bought some fresh mushrooms when she came across them. The process is very simple. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The investigation of the cook found nothing suspicious. Qin Chi, like Song Jin, didn''t believe the surprise at first, and suspected that Yuan Shipeng was behind it. But outside the Gongyuan, Yuan Shipeng was furious when he saw him, obviously not knowing that he would come to take the provincial examination. Therefore, after repeated investigations, it was found that it was indeed just an accident. Only because of Song Jin''s carefulness could the disaster be avoided. Sometimes Qin Chi doesn''t believe in metaphysics. But after marrying Song Jin, he somewhat believed it, "Perhaps my wife is just as the old blind man said, she is a blessed person and is very popular with my husband." Song Jin knew that it was enough to listen to this. It cannot be taken seriously. I can''t help but feel good after hearing this. After Qin Chi drank the ginseng tea, he went back to his room to rest. Song Jin followed him back to the dormitory and made the bed. She knew that she was not destined to be a good wife and mother in this life, but she would do her part well within her ability. "Do you want my husband to stay until the results are released and go home, or..." Song Jin stood behind Qin Chi and helped him take off his shirt. Then, Qin Chi sat on the edge of the bed and took off his shoes, "If nothing happens this time, I will be famous and I will participate in the Deer Ming Banquet." The Luming Banquet is a banquet stipulated in the imperial examination system. On the day after the results of the provincial examination were released, a banquet was held for the new imperial examination candidates and the officials inside and outside the country. They sang the "Deer Ming" chapter in the "Book of Songs", so it was called the Deer Ming Banquet. If Qin Chi wins the election, he must attend. Absence is not conducive to career. Qin Chi took Song Jin''s hand and said, "Let dad and second uncle go back first, and I''ll take you to visit the provincial capital for a few days, okay?" The time for releasing the results of the rural examination is not fixed. Sometimes its fast and sometimes its slow, usually in early to mid-September. But at least it will be half a month later. If we go back to Qinjiagou, it will take a lot of time to go back and forth, so it is better to stay here. At first, Qin Mingsong just stayed in the provincial capital. After attending the Luming Banquet, he went back to Fucheng. It took some time before he returned to Qinjiagou. Song Jin didn''t believe that he was just playing for a few days. Now that he said so, she just cooperated. One night passed. The next morning, after breakfast. Qin Chi told Boss Qin and Boss Qin about his decision. He did not force them to go back. The choice still rested with them. Although Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao Er wanted to see the list as soon as possible, they were hesitant to stay here and wait for so long. Finally, both decided to go home. When Qin Mingsong was asked, his decision was as expected by Qin Chi, "After the Luming Banquet, I will go directly to the capital to participate in next year''s examination." Immediately, he asked again: "Will Dalang participate next year?" Qin Chi nodded calmly. Chapter 236 The day the results are released Chapter 236 The day the results are released Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao Er went back to Yi County. Qin Mingsong made an excuse to visit. Meng Qingrui and the others did not leave, saying they would wait until the results were released. There was no release of the results for a day, and they were all thinking about it. On the contrary, Qin Chi acted like a normal person and took Song Jin out from time to time, calling it for fun. Only Song Jin knew. Everywhere I went there was something about covering my eyes and ears. Qin Chi went to meet some people, and Song Jin guessed that they were his subordinates, who looked at him with humility and awe. She only vaguely heard them mentioning things in Jianning and Fuzhou when they were talking. Song Jin didn''t know what he said specifically. Because she avoided it. At the end of August, word spread over the Yamen. After Qin Chi came back from the entertainment, he said to Song Jin: "All the students who cheated will be dismissed from their academic honors and sentenced to exile after being beaten with a cane." "Yuan Shipeng too?" Song Jin was surprised. This punishment is very severe. Qin Chi said: "The Yuan family has given up on him." At least he gave up on Yuan Shipeng openly. Qin Chi knew that the Yuan family arranged for someone to take care of Yuan Shipeng secretly, but Yuan Shipeng probably couldn''t understand this painstaking effort. A young man who grew up pampered and pampered, once fell into the quagmire, few can really get up. Besides, since he was offended, Qin Chi would not give him a chance to get up. "Qin Qian!" Meng Qingrui staggered over. There was also a bottle of wine in his hand. "Qin Qian, come out and drink!" Meng Qingrui shouted again. Behind him, Lu Yanji pulled him, "I''ve just had a few drinks and I''m going crazy." "Haha, I guess he did it on purpose." Le Yan pointed at Meng Qingrui and laughed, "He must have wanted to drink flower wine, but Qi''an stopped him. He was unhappy and wanted to use the wine to vent his anger on Qi''an." "Nonsense! Am I the kind of person with no character?" Meng Qingrui was not convinced. Song Jin, who was inside the house, heard the commotion outside, and said with a slight curl of the corner of his mouth: "You didn''t let them go to the brothel to drink wine. Could it be that they went and you felt uncomfortable because you didn''t go?" The corner of Qin Chi''s mouth twitched, "I haven''t drank, so why are you talking nonsense?" "Isn''t it?" Song Jin raised her beautiful eyebrows and looked sideways at him. Qin Chi wanted to say that he knew it was not peaceful outside. Before the results were released, if anything indecent happened, they would probably be revoked, so he stopped the three of them from going to the brothel to enjoy themselves. But when he wanted to explain, he saw the smile hidden in the corners of Song Jin''s eyes and brows, and knew that she was asking this question on purpose. "It''s rare to see you so alive." Qin Chi was used to his wife being gentle and quiet, but he was very surprised that she would joke at this time. Peaceful days always pass quickly. The day when the results are released is an important day that attracts national attention. In addition to the candidates taking the exam, there are other people who join in the fun and will also go to watch the results. This makes the list release day particularly lively. The announcement of the list is usually posted on the east wall of the Gongyuan. In order to alleviate crowd congestion, the imperial court also set up a low wall outside the wall where the announcements were posted as a safety fence to isolate those who read the announcements from the wall to ensure order and safety. On the day when the results were released, it was just dawn. Qin Chi and others went out early. Originally, Qin Chi didn''t want to see the list in person because he thought it would be too crowded. The three of them, Meng Qingrui, went into battle together, trying to drag him along life and death, saying that this was a sense of ritual as a candidate. Song Jin naturally followed. The group arrived early and got a good spot. After only half an hour, the gate of Gongyuan was still closed, but the open space in front of the door was already crowded with eager students and their relatives and friends. Qin Chi and others could stand safely, but their servants blocked the crowd for them. The sound of a gong broke the morning tranquility. Accompanied by a burst of hurried footsteps, the gate of Gongyuan slowly opened. "Come out, come out!" "The list is about to be released!" "The results are released!" someone in the crowd exclaimed. The examiners in red robes filed out, with serious faces and steady steps. Immediately afterwards, lists filled with names were posted on the wall, and instantly, the crowd burst into thunderous noises. People looking at the list rushed to get to the front of the list. Some couldn''t squeeze in and were so anxious that they jumped; some couldn''t help crying with joy when they saw their names; more people had lost their names, some looked ashen, others were dejected. Song Jin was protected by Qin Chi and pushed forward. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Just in time to see the newly posted list. Song Jin read it from the first, so at the first glance, he saw the name at the front: Qin Qi''an. After the name is the place of birth of the person on the list. "The number one in this subject is Qin Qi''an from Yi County, Huizhou? Who is this? Why haven''t I heard of him?" someone asked in surprise. Someone else immediately added: "He doesn''t even know that he was the Xiao Sanyuan a few years ago. He was only a teenager when he won the Xiao Sanyuan. After being silent for several years, he won the first prize again!" "Wow, this guy is awesome." "It''s a pity to be second. Being in the same period with him can only be considered unlucky." "Shut up. It''s unlucky for someone to get second place in the exam, so what does it mean to be someone who didn''t make it? Ouch, who''s going to beat me up?" There was a commotion from behind. Song Jin was so crowded that she almost nestled in Qin Chi''s arms, but she still raised her head excitedly, gave Qin Chi a thumbs up, and silently opened her mouth and said: "Congratulations, sir, for winning the first place in the Guipang." Jieyuan! How awesome! It is said among the people that "Golden candidates are promoted, silver Jinshi" is not that simple. It is more difficult to be successful than to be promoted to Jinshi. The number of students admitted to each subject is very low, usually only the top dozens or hundreds of students are admitted. Qin Chi was very happy in his heart and couldn''t help holding his wife in his arms. "Ah, I''m hit! I''m hit!" Lu Yanji wiped the sweat from his forehead and stared at the names on the list. He couldn''t help shaking his hands and turned around to hug Meng Qingrui next to him. Tears rolled in his eyes and his joy was beyond words. Meng Qingrui patted him on the back and said, "Congratulations!" "Congratulations!" Le Yan also said congratulations. Meng Qingrui and Le Yan failed the list. Although this was within their expectations, they still had a bit of luck in their hearts. The two of them felt lost and depressed at this time, but they did not reach the point of collapse, and they could still maintain their dignity outside. After congratulating Lu Yanji, they wanted to express their congratulations to Qin Chi, but they happened to see the man protecting his wife and walking out. Old Li Tou and Qin Ba led the way. You''re leaving, why don''t you call them? ! "We must let Qi''an treat us!" Meng Qingrui said loudly, as if he was venting his anger. Le Yan and Lu Yanji responded one after another and went to catch up with Qin Chi. The people standing around heard their words and watched them leave with envy. "Two out of four! Which school did they come from?" Someone couldn''t help but ask. Someone next to him said: "The guy just now couldn''t be Jie Yuan Qin Qi''an. I heard that he used to study at Tachuan Academy and later went to the Imperial College." "Nine times out of ten it is." "Hurry over and soak up the literary spirit." As soon as someone shouted, the crowd immediately surged again. Chapter 237 Qin Jieyuan Chapter 237 Qin Jieyuan As the daylight gradually rose, everyone who had seen the list dispersed, and the atmosphere outside the Gongyuan gradually calmed down. Song Jin and Qin Chi finally returned to the rented house. Not long after, Lu Yanji and the others came back. Their clothes were disheveled and their hats were crooked, as if they had been ravaged. "Qin Jieyuan, treat us!" Meng Qingrui shouted as soon as he saw Qin Chi. Qin Chi responded readily: "Okay, treat me. Brother Yanji should go and take care of it. The official will come to announce the good news later." "Thankfully you reminded me." Lu Yanji left the others and hurried back to his room. After Meng Qingrui also left, Qin Chi slapped Le Yan, who was forcing a smile, "This time, let''s gain experience and fight again next time." "That''s all." Its not that Le Yan doesnt understand, But its still inevitable to be disappointed if you dont succeed. "If you''re disappointed, think about Qingrui. You can''t lose to him." Qin Chi comforted people with unique ideas. Le Yan was speechless for a while, "That''s just a heartless person. I can''t compare to him." Meng Qingrui was disappointed when he failed the exam. But he soon emerged as an optimist. Sometimes his character is quite enviable, like Le Yan now. There is sadness hidden in Leyan''s brows. His knowledge is not as good as Qin Chi''s, and his family background is not as good as Meng Qingrui''s. It was impossible for his family to let him continue taking the exam. I could only sigh in my heart and put my hope in the next time. The official messenger who announced the good news came quickly. The officer held a bright yellow notice in his hand and came to the gate of the house rented by Qin Chi and others. Old Li Tou has been happily guarding the gate for a long time. When the official crossed the threshold and loudly announced the good news that Qin Chi had won the imperial examination, Qin Chi first thanked the emperor for his favor and then solemnly accepted the notice. The official left in a hurry after receiving the reward. Lao Litou immediately set off firecrackers to celebrate, and his neighbors came over to congratulate him. After a while, another official came over, this time to tell Lu Yanji the good news. The owners of the rental houses came and happily said that their rent would be waived. Two people were selected at one time, and one was the leader. The house is prosperous and the stars of literature and music shine brightly. In the future, there will be no need to worry about having no one to rent this house, and no need to worry about not being able to sell it at a high price. Song Jin sent people to a nearby restaurant and invited them to bring a sumptuous meal. While drinking, he secretly replaced Qin Chi''s wine pot with boiled water. Qin Chi discovered something fishy as soon as he drank it. So when the other three people tried to get him drunk, he couldn''t stop drinking. On the contrary, the other three were drunk. Qin Chi asked people to move them back to their room. Go back to the dormitory to find Song Jin. Song Jin had already prepared hot water and asked him to take a bath before going to bed. Early the next morning. Qin Chi and Lu Yanji went to the Luming Banquet together. Today, Qin Chi is almost unknown to everyone in the provincial capital. After that, pack your things and go back to your hometown. Song Jin asked: "Ms. sir, should we go back to Hongcun or Qinjiagou?" "Qinjiagou, I should go back to worship my ancestors." Qin Chi''s words reminded Song Jin of the time when Qin Mingsong won the exam, and he immediately understood what he meant. Qinjiagou is located at the foot of Huangshan Mountain. A village in a remote mountainous area actually produced two people, which is rare in the entire county. Even Qinjiagou became famous. A few days later. Qin Chi and Song Jin went back and immediately felt the difference. A large group of villagers were waiting at the entrance of the village. "Our Juren master is back!" "Oh, I''ll go home and prepare a gift. This is a big event in our Qin clan." "I want to go too." "Hurry up and ask someone to inform the clan leader that Dalang is back." Some people turned around and went home to wait. Qin Chi was surrounded by onlookers as soon as he got out of the car. He answered them one by one with a good temper, and was really warmly welcomed by the villagers. When he got home, his **** was still warm. Villagers came to congratulate one after another, and they all came empty-handed. For example, some people were carrying a chicken, some were carrying a basket of eggs, or some were carrying a piece of bacon, etc. In their opinion, it is a great gift. Fortunately, Song Jin was prepared for this. Every time someone comes to give a gift, a gift will be returned. Give away more than you receive. As for the etiquette given by the squire, it was normal and very common in this area. There were no houses or fields, but only some cloth, pastries, meat, etc. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "No one gives you a big gift?" Song Jin checked the gift list and looked at Qin Chi half-jokingly. Qin Chi took the gift list, took a look at it, and said with a smile, "Maybe he knew I wouldn''t accept it, so he didn''t bother with it." Last time these people gave Qin Mingsong gifts, Qin Chi was the one who declined. Qin Chi put down the gift list, "Madam, give them another gift for me, one that is heavier than theirs." "Okay, we''re doing it." Song Jin had already ordered people to prepare. Old man Qin and old Liu came over. The hall suddenly became lively again. The guests who came here all greeted the second elder one after another, and the smooth ones even gave a few compliments, which made the second elder smile from ear to ear. Qin Chi heard the commotion and went over to say hello. Song Jinlai is in charge here. Mrs. Liu came over with a cake in her mouth and said happily: "Congratulations, my wife! From now on, you will also be a lady." "Let Si Lang and Wu Lang study hard, and the second aunt will strive to be the mother of people in the future." Song Jin joked. Xiao Liu''s eyes lit up, "This is a good idea." The older two are hopeless, arent there two younger ones? "Hmm." The two were talking when they suddenly heard a cold snort behind them. Song Jin turned around and saw Mrs. Liu standing there with a straight face. She stood up with a smile and asked, "Is Grandma cured of her illness?" Old Liu snorted again. I touched the gift list again. "How many gifts did you receive?" Old Liu asked. Song Jin picked up the gift list and handed it over, "Grandma, can you read it yourself?" "If I am literate, do I still need to ask you?" Old Liu asked with a dark face. Song Jin was not angry, "Then I will read it to you." Then she actually picked up the list and started reading it, but while reading it, she also read the list of gifts in return. Then the more Mrs. Liu listened, the more she felt something was wrong, and she even pinched her fingers to do the calculations. "Prodigal bitch!" Old Mrs. Liu said angrily, "The gifts I received are not as many as those I gave out! You are the only one who is poor and generous, and my eldest grandson married you" "He married me and became a civil servant, and my brother-in-law married Xiu''er and also won the imperial examination." Song Jin interrupted Old Liu seriously. All of Old Liu''s words were suddenly stuck in his throat. Xiao Liu on the side was stunned, and when she came to her senses, she immediately agreed: "Today is a good day, and we don''t want to cause trouble." Little Liu secretly tugged on Old Liu''s sleeve and said mysteriously: "Mother-in-law, do you still remember what the old blind man said? He said that our old Qin family married two lucky girls, and they really did come in. My brother-in-law and I have just won the election. Don''t mess with it. If you lose your luck, you will suffer a big loss." Old Liu was very angry. After hearing these words, I miraculously held back. I don''t know when I came over. Song Xiu, who was standing aside and listening to the whole process, straightened his back and said in a strange tone: "No, all the blessings of the fourth house have been ruined by someone." Old Liu''s face darkened. Is this talking about her? When Song Jin saw this situation, he silently stepped aside. Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! ~ Chapter 238 Drunk Chapter 238 Drunk Song Xiu made Mr. Liu so angry that he wanted to curse. It turned out that Song Xiu was a free-spirited person, which made the old Liu take advantage of him. There were a lot of people here today, and the elders of the clan were all chatting and drinking tea in the hall next door. Old Liu knew that he would not be able to please him if there was a fuss. Over the years, the four-bedroom mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been fighting each other, and they are evenly matched. At first Song Xiu cared about her reputation, but later she simply broke the pot and established the old Liu family''s reputation as a wicked mother-in-law. She also pushed the miscarriage on her head, and Bai Cuiwei would rather fake her death than stay in Qin. Family matters were also pushed to Old Liu. No matter whether outsiders believe it or not. Anyway, Song Xiu had charged her with a bunch of charges. Now, not only are they here, but also the aunts and aunts in the village are here to help. There was someone poking their head at the door. One of them was Mrs. Wang, who had trouble dealing with the old Mrs. Liu. She whispered to the aunt beside her, "Then Mrs. Liu might become a demon again. Just wait and see, there will be a show later." "She can''t be so unreasonable, today is a good day for Da Lang." said an aunt next to him. Granny Wang spat, "That evil **** is destined to have a good life and have a son as her son. Otherwise, based on the evil things she has done, she would have been divorced by the clan leader." "I saw quickly that the fourth family was so misfortune that they still have no children." "If you don''t have a son, your wife won''t be able to give birth." "What do you know?" Mrs. Wang was very happy to publicize the viciousness of the old Liu family, "The old blind man said that the Song sisters were lucky girls, and also said that blessed girls fell into unlucky families. One after another, they were successful, and they still borrowed the Song sisters'' Is it light? Take a look at the comparison between the two." Most people in the village are superstitious. Especially the old blind man is quite famous in their area. The Qin family is a rude family. The first and fourth bedrooms each married one to enter. The sick man in the first house said that he would not live long, but he has lived to this day, has a virtuous wife, a pair of healthy children, and now he has become a master of public education. This further proves that Song Jin is blessed. "The fourth wife is also blessed. Didn''t Qin Mingsong win the lottery? The child is also pregnant with two children. Even if it is taken away by the old Liu family, even the concubines would rather die than leave." Mrs. Wang and others murmured together. . Fortunately, these people gossiped and spoke very quietly considering that they were at Song Jin''s house. Wait for old Mr. Liu to step out of the house with a black face. Mrs. Wang and others immediately shut their mouths and did not point at Old Liu with their hands, but the look in their eyes showed that they had not held it in well, which made Old Liu so angry that her heart ached. Then, left. Out of sight is pure. Song Jin was also surprised. I didn''t expect that Mr. Liu would be so angry that he would be so angry. Without her acting like a monster here, Song Jin felt that the air at home was a little fresher. Song Jin glanced at the ladies in the corner, then called Xiaoyu and said, "Xiaoyu, bring two plates of pastries to the ladies, and add a pot of tea." "Okay." Xiaoyu went to do it immediately. Mrs. Wang and others were suddenly treated to cakes and tea, and they were all very happy. They were full of praise for Song Jin, the little daughter-in-law, who was not only filial, but also acted appropriately. Song Jin never looks down on anyone. That night, the Qin family prepared a large table of food and wine and invited the most respected elders in the village. Early the next morning. The whole Qinjiagou is very lively. The Qin family worships their ancestors. The clan began to prepare the things needed to worship their ancestors as soon as they learned that Qin Chi had won the exam. The men worshiped their ancestors, while the women were busy with chores. Song Jin bought a fat pig, killed it and entertained the whole village at a banquet. He also donated a sum of money to the ancestral hall in the name of Qin Chi. Later, the Qin family could use the money to renovate the ancestral hall or purchase family land. wait. There are not many outsiders in the village. Song Jin specially invited them all to a banquet. Village Chief Chen and his family also came. Chen Donger, who was obsessed with Qin Mingsong, was escorted by her family to get married two years ago, so she did not appear this time. Without Song Jin''s intervention, Chen Donger''s marriage would not be far off. The embarrassment of the past is now silently ignored by everyone. "Ms. Song is still very grand." Village Chief Chen sighed with emotion, with a hint of compliment in his expression. Song Jin smiled politely and said, "The village chief has given you too much praise." "Everywhere, because of your help, people in the village have followed suit to cultivate medicinal fields and plant medicinal materials. With extra income, life is much better than in previous years." Village Chief Chen is truly grateful to Song Jin. When Song Jin came back, he noticed that many medicinal fields had been cultivated in Qinjiagou. In the mountainous areas here, growing food is not a good harvest. But if you are growing medicinal plants, it is quite good. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The village banquet was held until late in the evening, and a bonfire was lit. It was lively for half a night and then gradually calmed down. Song Jin helped Qin Chi, who was unsteady, to go home. This time Qin Chi wasn''t pretending to be drunk, he was really drunk. If Song Jin hadn''t stepped in to stop him, he would have drank more due to his poor health. It would have been too much for just one person to toast. Old Li Tou originally wanted to come over and help Qin Chi. Qin Chi accidentally pushed him away, and he leaned half of his body towards Song Jin. Under the moonlight, Song Jin supported him and walked slowly home. Others consciously stayed away. There was a tacit understanding not to disturb the two of them. After helping Qin Chi back to his room and placing him on the bed, he took off his shirt, shoes and socks. Just as she was about to turn around, Qin Chi suddenly held her wrist, "Where are you going, madam?" "Are you not drunk?" Song Jin turned around in surprise. "Drunk." He wasn''t drunk to death, he was very clear-headed. Song Jin said softly: "I''ll go to the kitchen and make you a bowl of hangover soup." "Just let Aunt Huang do it." Qin Chi did not let go, but opened his eyes slightly and looked at Song Jin through half-lidded eyes. Song Jin turned around and sat on the edge of the bed. Just stay with him quietly until Mrs. Li comes in. Song Jin stood up and said, "Mother-in-law, haven''t you rested yet?" "I heard that Da Lang was drunk, so I didn''t feel comfortable coming here to take a look." Mrs. Li came over and took a look at her son who was sleeping on the bed, as well as his ears and neck that were red with the smell of alcohol. Before Song Jin could say anything, Mrs. Li added, "I asked Aunt Huang to make drunken soup and it will be served shortly." "OK." Song Jin watched Li go out. He was not sent to the door, but his wrist was still held by Qin Chi. Turning back and looking down at his tightly held wrist, Song Jin wondered whether he was really drunk or pretending to be drunk. Soon, Mrs. Huang came over with drunken soup. Put the soup bowl on the table and go out. Song Jin reached out to bring it over and half-supported Qin Chi, "Mr. Sir, take a few sips of the hangover soup so that you don''t have a headache when you wake up tomorrow." Qin Chi opened his eyes slightly in confusion, drank the soup with her hand, then lay down and continued to sleep. Song Jin lifted the quilt and covered him. Just as she was about to stand up, there was another tugging force behind her. When she looked back, she found that this time the person was not tugging on her wrist, but the big, well-jointed hands were grabbing the hem of her skirt. Song Jin was silent for a while. (End of chapter) Chapter 239 Mr. Rong Chapter 239 Mr. Rong The next day. When Song Jin woke up in confusion, Qin Chi had already stood up and dressed. He looks human again. Not a word was mentioned about what happened last night. Everyone made an appointment to set off to Hongcun. As Song Jin, Qin Chi and others left, Qinjiagou returned to peace. Arrive at Hongcun. On the same day, Song Jin met Qin Daya. Qin Daya came over with a big belly and a rosy face. She was living a good life after getting married. Song Jin had learned earlier that Qin Daya got married early last year, to the family they had agreed upon before, and was the son of the owner of a rice shop. Because Qin Daya was entangled with that family earlier and almost had an accident, the son of the Mipu family really fell in love with Daya, so he didn''t mind. After the two got married, they lived a harmonious life. "Sister-in-law." Qin Daya called out with a blushing face. Song Jin gave her a gift, "Consider it as a supplement to your wedding gift." "Thank you, sister-in-law." Qin Daya took it and thanked him. Song Jin looked at the young man standing aside who was smiling a little naively. Just as Li said at the beginning, he was an honest young man with a kind face, and there was light in Qin Daya''s eyes. Song Jin smiled and said hello. Qin Daya pulled her husband and said, "Why don''t you call me sister-in-law?" "Hello, sister-in-law, my name is Ruan Yuanbao." "Yuanbao?" Song Jin tried to ask. Ruan Yuanbao said: "My nickname is Yuanbao, the treasure of Jin Yuanbao. My big name is Yuanbao, the protection of Bao." Arent they all called Yuanbao? Song Jin tried very hard not to laugh, "Well, live a good life with Da Ya. If anything happens, you can come and see her big brother." "Okay, just listen to my sister-in-law." Ruan Yuanbao replied with a silly smile, very refreshing and not polite. Song Jin''s smile faltered. This guy can''t pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger. Qin Chi on the side saw Song Jin''s reaction, and it was not difficult to guess what she was thinking, so he reminded her in a low voice: "He is really stupid, not pretending." Song Jin took a deep breath. Chatted for a while. The couple went to the second room. The days in Hongcun seemed to have suddenly returned to tranquility. Song Jin often went to Jifang Pharmacy to handle some important matters, and occasionally concocted some precious medicinal materials. Qin Chi went to meet a few people and visited several teachers, and then invited his classmates to visit Huangshan Mountain. In fact, Qin Chi went to see He Lianpu. He Lianpu is currently at Cinnabar Peak in Huangshan Mountain. Huguo Ciguang Temple was built on Zhusha Peak. There was a hot spring courtyard not far from the temple. He chose to stay here temporarily because the imperial doctor said that soaking in hot springs would be beneficial to Helian Pu''s recovery. Avoiding his classmates, Qin Chi went to see He Lianpu in private. Helian Pu was very happy. He was originally playing chess with a scribe, but immediately stopped playing and waved to Qin Chi, "Qi''an, come here quickly and help me deal with him. We played a total of three games today, and I lost three times." He Lianpu gave way. Obviously he wants Qin Chi to do it for him. The scribe stroked his beard and looked at Qin Chi with a smile, "Qin Ju, please sit down." "These words offend me. Mr. Rong can just call me to pray for peace." Qin Chi said this, but he sat down openly. He Lianpu''s smile appeared in his eyes. Again provocatively, he looked at the scribe. Qin Chi''s eyes fell on the chessboard. He Lianpu had just held the white piece, had the upper hand and lost half of the country. How could he reverse the defeat? It was really difficult for him to do so. But his uncle wanted him to take over the endgame, so Qin Chi had no reason not to respond. He could only try his best to save as much as he could, at least not to lose too ugly. So, he gradually calmed down and stared at the chessboard intently. After a long while, he picked up a white jade chess piece between his fingers and dropped it with a click. This behavior shows that he is an expert at first sight. Mr. Rong raised his eyebrows and then lowered his eyebrows. Back and forth, no one gave in, and the fighting on the chessboard was fierce. In the end, Qin Chi lost a son. Previously he inherited a losing situation. Even Mr. Rong had to be impressed by Qin Chi''s ability to play the game like this without making any big mistakes from Mr. Rong. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Mr. Rong commented: "The younger generation is to be feared." "It''s still an honor to lose, right?" He Lianpu''s smile never broke. "Yes! Yes!" This made Mr. Rong surprised again, "You came to Huangshan at the right time. He is cheerful and loves to laugh." "How can you not be happy when there is no one to disturb you?" He Lianpu had been sick for many years, and his brows could not hide his depression. Now the depression between his brows has dissipated, as if he has let go of some obsession. When he was in the capital, he told others that he came to Huangshan to recuperate. In fact, he found the grave. He planned to bury himself on Mount Huangshan. He said he was here to recuperate, but in fact he was here to wait for death. However, after such a long time, people are getting more alive and energetic, let alone dead. "Huangshan is a good place to live in seclusion. I will come here to retire in the future." Mr. Rong suddenly said this with emotion. He Lianpu joked: "I will leave you a thatched cottage and add a piece of geomantic treasure land." "Then I would like to thank you in advance for your reward." "What good things are you thinking of? This prince is just teasing you." He Lianpu burst into laughter after saying this. Mr. Rong doesnt mind either. He turned to Qin Chi and asked about the provincial examination. Qin Chi answered one by one. When he learned that he would take part in the examination next year, Mr. Rong gave him some advice, like who was most likely to be the examiner next year. Who specifically? It depends on who the emperor finally lets take charge. Mr. Rong didn''t know who it would be, but he told Qin Chi the article preferences of the most likely ones, and then asked Qin Chi to write an essay with the title "People''s Livelihood", with the same content but in a different style. Express. Mr. Rong only teaches once. How much Qin Chi can comprehend depends on his personal ability. Until evening. Helian Pu ordered people to prepare meals. After dinner. Mr. Rong went down to rest, and Qin Chi had time to be alone with He Lianpu. After telling his uncle about the Liu family, Qin Chi added: "There is someone behind the Liu family, but we haven''t found out who it is yet. I only know that the Liu family has a close relationship with Yang Lingyu and Liu Yuanshi." "Someone is spinning a big web." He Lianpu has lived in the capital for many years and can be said to be a man in the game. He knows more than Qin Chi. "If you can''t help it, don''t get involved. The water is too deep and it''s not worth risking your life. It''s really this It''s boring to guard the world, but your grandfather is stubborn. It would be better if you listen to me and retire early. You can stay in the northwest for the rest of your life and win the honor of being a **** of war. You can''t even keep your flesh and blood. " Qin Chi was surprised. My uncle really dared to say anything. He Lianpu had been deeply disappointed with the emperor for a long time and had even accumulated a lot of resentment. He would hide it perfectly in front of outsiders. Facing Qin Chi, his only nephew, he no longer had so many scruples and didn''t mind letting Qin Chi know. His attitude towards the current court. Qin Chi reluctantly changed the subject and asked: "Uncle, where is Mr. Rong''s origin?" "Li Huarong, cabinet bachelor, the former chief bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. He was too upright and offended the man in the palace, so he was put into seclusion. In recent years, the man has become more and more willful..." Chapter 240 My wife Wang Fu Chapter 240 My Wife Wang Fu Qin Chi stayed in the hot spring courtyard for three days. On the fourth day, he met Meng Qingrui at Ciguang Temple as agreed. "How is Leyan?" Qin Chi asked. Meng Qingrui pointed to the viewing pavilion not far away, "Hey, I''m there, playing chess with my new friends. These days, he got up early to climb the mountain to see Huangshan''s wonderful pines and sea of ??clouds. The worry about not being ranked has long since passed. Just forgot about it. "Who are those people?" Qin Chi didn''t know them. Meng Qingrui grinned and said, "The failed students who come to Huangshan to relax are just like me and Le Yan. In this mountain, I don''t know where to go, cutting off the troubles in the world." "You have a destiny with Buddha." Qin Chi joked. Meng Qingrui rolled his eyes, "My father said, ghosts see me sad, Buddhas see me sad." "Hahaha" After laughing. The two of them had already reached the viewing pavilion. When Le Yan saw Qin Chi coming, he hurriedly said hello and introduced others to Qin Chi. We are both scholars, so we have no shortage of topics to chat with. Finally, everyone asked Qin Chi if he would take part in the examination next year. After Qin Chi said he would go, they asked when he would go to Beijing. "If you''re not interested, go after the New Year." Qin Chi wants to celebrate the New Year with his family. According to his plan, there won''t be many free days like this in the future. Now he can spend every day with his family. Over there in Yi County. Song Jin was handling things at the drug store. I received the news from Xing Lun and others that everything in the fleet was fine. They encountered a little trouble, but it was resolved. It is expected that Xing Lun and others will return to Huizhou in a month. "Little miss, do you really need to teach me this?" Yinlong was unsure after hearing Song Jin''s words. Song Jin nodded affirmatively, "They all signed the contract of prostitution, so it''s okay for them to learn, but we still use the old method. Each person only learns one or two things and concentrates on perfecting their skills, instead of knowing everything. Not good at anything. "I know that." So many medicinal materials are collected every year, which is solved by Song Jin''s earlier method. The apprentices each learn one or two methods of processing medicinal materials. The more the same medicinal materials are processed, the more skilled the techniques will be, and the quality of the medicinal materials will be guaranteed. Another point is that the medicinal materials that are scrapped during the processing process will also be reduced a lot, which invisibly reduces the cost. Song Jin''s possession of the "Song Family Pharmacopoeia" was an advantage. The Song family did not use it to expand before, but Song Jin did now. The domestic medicinal materials market will inevitably be impacted, seizing the interests of other drug dealers, and offending some peers, but Song Jin doesn''t care. Jin Ling brought the newly brewed tonic soup, "Young lady, please take care of yourself." "Thank you Aunt Ling." Song Jin took it and took a sip of the soup. After tasting it carefully, she knew in her heart what medicinal materials were added to the soup. They were all nourishing medicinal materials. "This craftsmanship is about to catch up with Aunt Long''s." "I learned it from her." Jin Ling smiled and looked at Yinlong beside her. Yinlong also pursed her lips and smiled, "I prepared the medicinal package, but she just went too far." "If you don''t expose me, you won''t feel comfortable, right?" Jin Ling cursed half-jokingly. Song Jin was very happy to hear this. It''s September and the weather is getting cooler. It is also the busiest season for drug stores and drug stores. Unknowingly, the New Year is approaching again. In the past few months, Qin Chi had closed the door and thanked guests on the pretext of studying. In fact, Mr. Rong appreciated him very much and often gave him pointers, not only in terms of knowledge, but also in Mr. Rong''s decades of being an official. . The most valuable thing is the experience imparted by our predecessors. Let Qin Chi benefit for life. This year''s winter came earlier than usual, and it was extremely cold. It snowed several times and the snow accumulated thickly. As expected, a small area suffered from snowstorms. Qin Chi took Meng Qingrui, Le Yan and others to go to the Yamen on his own initiative to help resettle the people affected by the disaster. Jifang Pharmacy took the lead in donating a batch of medicinal materials. It''s not that Song Jin didn''t have more money to donate, but he didn''t do so, leaving a chance for other colleagues to perform. Sure enough, as soon as Song Jin''s donation was made, subsequent donations from other businessmen were sent to the Yamen one after another. This greatly reduced the burden on the Yamen. At the donation office of the Yamen. "Aren''t these businessmen usually very stingy? Why are they so happy to donate now?" Le Yan was typing the abacus loudly, and then made another note after typing. Meng Qingrui smiled mysteriously, "This is for the blessing of my wife An." Then, both of them looked at Qin Chi who was keeping accounts. Qin Chi heard what the two said and raised his head to look at them. "Whether the businessman is really stingy or some people are too greedy, it is difficult to come to a conclusion. My wife took the lead in donating not much, and others followed her lead." Donate the amount you want, its painless and its natural and enjoyable. The scope of the disaster in the county is not large. This donation is enough for the people affected by the disaster to survive this winter. Most people in the world are prejudiced against merchants. Facts have proved that in the face of major issues of right and wrong, most businessmen have a clear sense of reason and are willing to donate to help others. The premise is that people are willing to donate. It is meaningless to force donations. If you don''t donate, you''ll call them a shady businessman. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! If you dont donate enough, youll be criticized for being stingy. No matter what the purpose of the donation is, whether it is a large donation or a small donation, as long as the donation is made, it is worthy of praise. Finished settling this year''s accounts in Song Jin. The New Year is also coming. Song Jin was finally free. When I have free time, I spend time with my children, or take a good rest at home and make some pastries myself to entertain my children. A little guy with a tiger-like head came up to Song Jin, hugged her thigh and said, "Mother, my grandmother said that my sister and I will be enlightened during the New Year. I want to study." "Reading?" Song Jin was in a daze for a moment. Then he looked down at his fat son. He lifted him up and held him in his arms, looking left and right, and then pinched his little face. "My son is going to grow up!" Song Jin couldn''t help but sigh. Huzi nodded seriously, "Yes, I will be a big kid from now on, and I can''t be naughty anymore." Song Jin heard the regret in the last sentence. "Pfft." Unable to hold back, Song Jin laughed. Mrs. Li led her granddaughter in and happened to see mother and son Ni Wai. When the little girl saw Song Jin hugging her brother, her eyes were bright and she ran towards Song Jin on her short legs. It happened that she was wearing a thick cotton coat. Like a small ball, it ran a few steps and fell forward. She raised her little head and looked at the adults with big, watery eyes. When she saw no one came to help her, her little mouth immediately became flat and ready to cry. Mrs. Li, who originally wanted to tease the little girl, quickly picked her up and pretended to be angry and lectured: "I told you that you are a skinny monkey and you can''t live in peace." "Hahaha, mother, how old is Niuniu?" Before Song Jin could say anything, Qin Chi, who had just entered, saw this and immediately smiled and said a good word for his daughter. As soon as Niu Niu saw Qin Chi, she stretched out her little arms to him for a hug. Qin Chi took his daughter over. After a while, Boss Qin came and brought the goat milk that had just been heated for the child. The whole family is happy together. Compared to Dafang''s side, Song Xiu''s side was deserted. Ever since Qin Chi passed the imperial examination and has not died like in her previous life, she has repeatedly doubted the memory of her previous life. She is listless all day long, and she has no intention of comparing herself to Song Jin. The date of the examination is the ninth day of February. On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Qin Chi went to Beijing in advance to take the exam. He didn''t need Boss Qin to send him off, he just asked Song Jin to accompany him, and then he just took Lao Litou and others with him. Not only one person is opposed to this matter. Even the people in the village were puzzled. Some people couldn''t help but ask: "Da Lang, what''s the use of taking a wife to take the exam?" Qin Chi smiled mysteriously, "My wife is Wang Fu." In an instant, the doubts disappeared. Chapter 241 Someone wants to harm Qin Chi Chapter 241 Someone wants to harm Qin Chi When traveling in winter, the journey is a little slower. You can only stop when encountering wind and snow. On the night of the fourth day of February, the group of people walked to the inn closest to the capital. Song Jin just got off the carriage and raised his hand to brush off the snowflakes on Qin Chi''s shoulders, "Go into the house quickly. I''ll go to the kitchen to make you a bowl of **** soup later." "Let others do this chore." Qin Chi led Song Jin into the house. Someone was sent to prepare in advance, so the charcoal stove was already burning in the house, which was much warmer than outside. Qin Chi took off his cloak. Song Jin was also about to untie his cloak, when suddenly there was the sound of banging wood outside. The sound is far away, not too loud, and comes one after another. It sounds like knocking randomly. Song Jin''s face changed slightly when he heard this, and he immediately said, "Ms. sir, I have something to do and I need to go out for a while." Without waiting for Qin Chi''s reply, he went out first. Follow the sound and look for it. Outside the side door of the inn, Song Jin saw a young man wearing a cotton-padded jacket. When the young man saw Song Jin coming out, he threw away the wood in his hand, stepped forward and saluted respectfully, "Song Jitao has met the young patriarch." "Is your father Song Huaiwang?" Song Jin asked. "Exactly." Song Jitao took out a letter from his arms, bent down and handed it to Song Jin with both hands, "Father asked me to deliver a letter to you, saying it is urgent." Song Jin took the letter and opened it immediately to read. After reading the letter, her face darkened, "Do you know what''s in the letter?" "My father didn''t say anything." Song Jitao looked confused. Song Jin looked at him and saw that he really didn''t know, so he said: "Go back, remember to hide your whereabouts so that no one can notice." Song Jitao responded solemnly. From the first time she met Song Huaiwang, Song Jin hid her relationship with them and asked them to treat them as strangers when they met outside. Put the letter in your pocket. Song Jin turned around and stepped into the inn again. At the entrance, a pair of master and servant came towards me. "Hey, is it you?" The man''s voice was somewhat surprised. Song Jin looked up again and saw Yang Yingrong and the boy. Yang Yingrong was wearing a fox fur cloak, "Mrs. Qin Qi''an''s family? You are here, is he also here? Where does he live, in the East Crossing Courtyard or the West Crossing Courtyard?" When this person asked questions, he looked at Song Jin darkly. Song Jin pretended not to recognize the other party. Yang Yingrong thought of Qin Qi''an, and even his grandfather praised the person he wanted to win over, so he patiently explained: "We have seen that in front of the City God''s Temple during the Qiqiao Festival that year, his surname was Yang." Song Jin bowed his head slightly and saluted, "I''m sorry, I don''t remember knowing the young master." After that, he walked around Yang Yingrong. The boy wanted to stop him, but Yang Yingrong raised his hand to stop him. Yang Yingrong looked at Song Jin''s back and asked thoughtfully: "Have you noticed that she has a kind face? She looks very similar to the Hui merchant who deceived us." The boy wanted to say something. They didn''t fool you, they even treated you to a meal. It''s just that they didn''t find each other later. Song Jin was about to reach the post house when he couldn''t help but look back. When he didn''t see Yang Yingrong''s master and servant, he looked away, opened the door and entered the house. Inside the house, Qin Chi was sitting in front of the charcoal stove, fiddling with the charcoal with tongs. "The third young master of the Yang family is also at the inn." Song Jin untied his cloak and hung it on a clothes rack nearby. "He must have just settled in the inn. Do you think he is a real dude or a fake? I have only met him a few times, but every time he can tell me at a glance, Recognize me." Qin Chi''s hand pulling at the charcoal paused. When Song Jin sat down, he handed over half a bowl of **** tea, "Uncle Li just sent it." Song Jin brought it over and took a sip. It was so spicy that she frowned slightly, "How much **** did you drink?" "Ha, I don''t know. You have to ask Uncle Li to find out." Qin Chi said half-jokingly, but poured her another bowl of tea. Song Jin drank another half a bowl of tea before the chill in his body dissipated, "Someone wants to kill you, and they say they can''t kill you, and they want to ruin your future." Hearing this, Qin Chi was stunned. Song Jin added: "I don''t know who is behind the scenes. The clan members learned the news accidentally." "Someone came to you just now to tell you this?" "Um." Song Jin did not deny it. After thinking about it, she handed the letter to Qin Chi. Qin Chi read it once and returned it to Song Jin. The letter not only contained news about Qin Chi, but also talked about some business matters. Song Jin threw the letter into the charcoal stove. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The scarlet coals quickly engulfed the letter. "What are you going to do?" Song Jin asked. Qin Chi replied: "I will let people investigate clearly." "You should know that it took several days for this letter to arrive in my hands." Song Jin reminded Qin Chi to be careful of ambush. Qin Chi just wanted to recruit people and let them investigate. Suddenly, I heard someone shouting outside. "Catch the thief! Go and catch the thief!" "Which way is he running? Catch him quickly!" "Smash him! Smash him!" There was a noise coming from the kitchen of the inn. Qin Chi and Song Jin stood up almost at the same time. One put on his cloak again, and the other put on his cloak. When I opened the door, the cold wind blew in, making me shiver for no reason. "Sir, madam." It was Qin Qi and Qin Ba who came over. After walking out of the corridor, the movement became even louder. After a while, several people came in escorting a man who was beaten until his mouth was bleeding. The servant in charge of the kitchen scolded: "This **** stole something and stole something to the inn. Fortunately, I caught him first, otherwise I would have frightened the noble man." "Shut up, you are so loud that you have already shocked the noble man." A servant next to him scolded. Old Li Tou is asking for news. When I learned that this was a thief, I had no doubts for a moment. Qin Chi walked over and said calmly: "Uncle Li, go search him." "Okay, sir." As soon as Lao Li heard Qin Chi''s instructions, he immediately followed them. Someone had sneaked in and was close to the kitchen. The secret guard had already noticed it and led the guards over little by little. The thief was tied hand and foot. As soon as he heard that he was about to be searched, his expression changed drastically. Just when he was about to say something, a piece of rags was stuffed into his mouth. Old Li Tou said: "I''m here to search you. It''s your honor. Please cooperate." As soon as he touched the thief''s arms, Lao Li made a move and took out a paper ball. If you say it''s a ball of paper, it''s really a ball of paper. The paper is light yellow and is a very cheap paper on the market. Someone kneaded it into a ball. Ordinary people may ignore it when they see it. Lao Li opened the paper ball carefully and was surprised to see the powder remaining on the paper. He pinched a little and rubbed it on his fingertips. He smelled it carefully and judged: "It''s sweat medicine. It seems that he sneaked into the kitchen. He wanted to take it secretly, but instead gave it to him. Lets go to the kitchen to check and see where he put the medicine. Hearing what Old Li Tou said, the thief looked extremely anxious. After hearing this, the servant next to him hurriedly welcomed Lao Litou into the kitchen and inspected the food inside. Finally, a problem was discovered in the water tank. (End of chapter) Chapter 242 Treat human life as nothing Chapter 242 Treating human life as trivial "He put the medicine into the water tank." Old Li Tou said after checking, "This is to stun everyone in the station. Brothers, this matter needs to be reported to the Yi Cheng immediately." The officials in charge of the inns are not of high quality. When the two officers learned that someone had come to drug them, they immediately said they wanted to report it to Yi Cheng. Yi Cheng came very quickly. The earlier movement was obviously heard too. After listening to the story, Yi Cheng said: "I will be locked up in the woodshed and sent to the official tomorrow morning." that''s all? In fact, the normal process is indeed like this. Yi Cheng began to get close to Old Li Tougua, "I was able to find the problem this time and avoid a disaster. It''s all thanks to Brother Li." "I advise you not to lock people up in the firewood shed. It''s better to send them to the Yamen overnight. If they come and drug them, there must be a group of thieves behind the scenes. There are only two or three kittens here in the post station. Can they defend themselves against robbers?" Li Tou suggested it sincerely. Yi Cheng was right. He quickly asked someone to set up the car. He had to go to the Yamen. Wait for people to leave. Qin Ba came over and whispered: "Madam received news that someone is going to attack the young master. The young master wants you to interrogate the man in the woodshed." "OK." Old Li Tou looked solemn. Who wants to attack the young master? Could it be that the person behind the scenes was aware of the young masters existence? Old Li Tou put away his casualness and spoke very carefully to the guard who was watching the thief. He got the opportunity to enter the woodshed, and then he searched the man again. A strip search kind of thing. The little thief was so tortured that he looked at Old Li Tou as if he were looking at a big pervert. Then, the little thief quickly overturned his opinion of Old Li Tou. This is not only a pervert, but a devil. "Tell me, where is your identity and what''s the purpose of coming to the inn?" Old Li Tou looked at him like he was looking at a dead person. Seeing this made the little thief feel very angry. The answer was a little slower. "Crack!" Misalignment of the jaw bones. The pain was so painful that the little thief couldn''t even speak. Then, there was another click, and the little thief''s left arm was dislocated again, and then it was the right''s turn. The pain made the little thief sweat profusely. This has happened just now. The little thief deeply suspected that the other party only wanted to kill him, but did not really want him to confess. Because before asking questions, his jaw was always dislocated and he couldn''t even speak. What should he do? This happened three times. The little thief was tortured until his mentality collapsed, and his jaw was restored by Old Li for the fourth time. "Wo said, wo said!" The little thief doesn''t need to be pressed by Old Li Tou. He poured out all he knew as if he were pouring beans. When he was frightened, he would inevitably speak confusingly in some places, but Lao Litou filtered out useful information. "Bang bang." Someone knocked on the woodshed door. Lao Li restored the little thief''s arms to their original positions. Then he unhurriedly took out his handkerchief, wiped his hands and opened the door. Outside the door was Yi Cheng and his servants, looking at Old Li Tou suspiciously, "Brother Li, what are you doing?" "I" Old Li Tou hasn''t finished speaking yet. The little thief fell to the ground in the woodshed, sweating profusely, and shouted in fear: "I''ll do it, I''ll do it, take me to jail, take me away! Take me away, you can say anything..." A group of people watching outside. There was silence for a moment. The situation was a bit strange, the little thief''s reaction was wrong. Old Li Tou said with a smile: "I used some tricks on him and forced out his accomplices, saying that there would be someone to pick him up outside the post station. Does Master Yi Cheng want to go and capture the person?" Of course Yi Cheng wants to catch him. The problem is that he needs people. No one with any connections would want to work for a low-grade Yi Cheng. Firstly, there is no money and money. Secondly, the salary is always owed and cannot be paid. In fact, the secret guard had already detained the person who was responding outside. The things that came out of the other party''s mouth were similar to what the little thief said. They were the punks from the neighborhood. A few days ago, someone suddenly came to me. I just wanted to teach a poor student from Huizhou to the capital to take the exam. If he missed the exam, he would get a hundred taels. One hundred taels is a lot of money for a gangster. To them, dealing with a student rushing to take an exam is a trivial matter. However, they forgot that students who can participate in the examination must at least be a candidate. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Sir, there are two gangsters **** at the door. They are probably the thief''s accomplices." A police officer hurried over to report. Yi Cheng lifted up his clothes and hurried out to check. After asking, they found out that they were indeed in the same group, so they loaded the three of them into a carriage and sent them to the Yamen overnight. Not long after. Song Jin and Qin Chi also heard the whole story. Qin Chi put a piece of charcoal into the charcoal stove, looked at the burning charcoal inside and said: "The people who come to fight are just small men, and their knowledge is limited." "I think it''s best to send someone to check the area to see if there are any abnormalities. It''s better to be cautious." Song Jin always felt that it was not that simple. She believed Song Huaiwang''s confession more than the gangster''s confession. Qin Chi did not expect his wife to be so keen, "I have asked the secret guards to check nearby. I also feel that the matter is not that simple. The three gangsters are probably just pawns. If I take Chinese medicine this time, I will probably be a student rushing to take the exam tomorrow." As soon as possible, the news of his death at the inn spread." When he said the last sentence, Qin Chi had a slight smile on his lips. Song Jin''s heart went cold when he heard this. How much hatred does this create, and the other party wants Qin Chi to die? Even if he can''t kill him, his future will be ruined? Song Jin subconsciously stretched his hands over the charcoal, feeling the heat, as if this could make people feel warmer. "Who did you offend while studying in the capital?" Song Jin asked tentatively. Qin Chi smiled silently, "In the capital, it''s not who you offend that will kill you. Think about Yuan Shipeng, just because I am good at reading and it bothers him, he dares to They attacked me again and again." "Could it be that you are trying to hinder someone else?" It''s not unreasonable for Song Jin to think so. If some of the disciples of aristocratic families end up in trouble, it will be fine on the surface, but students from poorer families will have to make way for them. Many people in this world are looking for justice. Unfortunately, fairness is mostly just for the world to see. Since ancient times, it has been very difficult for students from poor families to get ahead. "Tuk-tuk." There was a knock on the door. Qin Ba said outside: "Master, I have something important to report." Qin Chi got up and opened the door, then turned around and walked inside. Then Qin Ba followed him into the house. He turned around and opened the door ajar to block the cold wind outside. When Qin Chi sat down, Qin Ba immediately reported: "Just now, the secret guards captured a group of people in the ruined temple one mile away from the inn. One of them seemed to be a slave from a wealthy family..." After some interrogation. The key is that house slave. It was Yuan Shipeng''s mother who sent someone here. It is said that before Yuan Shipeng was exiled, he wrote a letter back and made a request to his mother. And being able to develop that kind of temperament in Yuan Shipeng shows that his mother is not a good person either. Treat human life as nothing.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused. (End of this chapter) Chapter 243 Divert disaster to the east Chapter 243: Diverting trouble to the east Song Jin asked: "Do you think Yuan Shangshu was involved?" "It should be the wife''s decision." Qin Chi thought that this was done in a flawless and majestic way, and he looked like someone who was taking advantage of family power to do evil. It cannot be written by Yuan Shangshu. If Yuan Shangshu took action in this matter, he would definitely do it more covertly. Song Jin then thought of the master and servant Yang Yingrong who also settled in the post house, "Let someone pass the news to Young Master Yang San and let him know that he almost lost his life." "Do you want the Yang family to confront the Yuan family?" Qin Chi suddenly understood Song Jin''s intention. Song Jin said: "This alone is not enough, we need to add more fire." "Make the testimonies of those who ruined the temple a little more vague. They only said that someone wanted to buy the life of a noble person in the inn." They captured the person, and it was his people who interrogated him. It is not difficult to change the testimony first. Let the Yang family get involved first, and make the fake things real for him. So Qin Chi started to make arrangements. Soon. Lao Li Tou treated this matter as if it were gossip and told a guard at the post station. He added at the end: "Do you think that group of thieves made a mistake? Where did the noble people in the post house come from? If there are any, I''ll go over and report the news to the other party as soon as possible, and I can also ask for a reward." The officer''s eyes were rolling. Before dark, a pair of master and servant came to the inn. Among them, the young master wearing a fox fur cloak and holding the name card of the Yang family in the capital must have an extraordinary background. So it didn''t take long. Yang Yingrong learned that someone was detrimental to him. "Are you coming for me?" Yang Yingrong was surprised. The guard replied flatteringly: "The thief confessed that he came for a noble person, and you are the only one in the entire post station who can be called a noble person." Qin Chi and others were ignored by the guards. A student from another province rushing to take the exam has no connection with the "nobles". Then the guard stood there without saying anything. Yang Yingrong understood this very well, and his eyes signaled the boy to reward him. The boy reluctantly took out the money and rewarded the servant After receiving the reward, the officer happily said: "My lord, I also found out that among the arrested people, there was a steward of Yuan Shangshu''s family. He said that his young master had a grudge and specifically asked his mother to do it." "What?" Yang Yingrong was stunned. The boy next to him looked surprised, "Oh, that''s not surprising." "Dog slave, what do you mean?" Yang Yingrong raised his leg and gave the boy a kick, "Such a big thing happened, and you didn''t report it in time. You had to ask someone else to tell me before I found out. I''ll settle the accounts with you when I get back to the capital." Dare the boy say that he was lazy? The noise of catching the thief was so loud that he could hear it in the room, but it was too cold outside and he was too lazy to come out. Of course this cannot be said directly. The servant knelt down on the spot and said, "Slave, slave, **** it. I was so tired along the way that I couldn''t help but take a nap." Seeing that Yang Yingrong had no intention of continuing to investigate. The boy worriedly said again: "The Yuan family wants to kill the young master. Let''s quickly report to the mansion and ask them to send someone to pick you up." "It''s really strange. Why did the Yuan family want to kill me?" "Have you forgotten? Before Yuan Shipeng went into exile, you went out of your way to laugh at him." The boy had a bitter look when he mentioned this. The third young master''s ability to commit suicide is getting better and better. When he heard in Huizhou Prefecture that Yuan Shipeng had been imprisoned for cheating in the imperial examination and was about to be sentenced to exile, Yang Yingrong rushed to the provincial capital just to laugh at Yuan Shipeng at the city gate. Even Qin Chi and Song Jin didn''t know about this. It was an unexpected coincidence. After being reminded by the servant, Yang Yingrong finally remembered the matter, "Damn it, this Yuan Shipeng is so vicious. He is even more inhumane than this young master. Didn''t he just laugh at me? How dare he take my life. Come on, get out of here." Grind the ink for me." He wanted to write a letter back quickly asking for help. This time he sneaked back to Beijing from Huizhou, so he only brought his servant and no bodyguard with him. If you die here, it will be an unjust death! Before Yang Yingrong''s letter was sent, Qin Chi''s secret message reached the capital faster. Immediately, Mrs. Yuan''s wife learned that the person she sent had failed and was detained by the Yamen. The murder was exposed. Yuan Shangshu Mansion. In the main room of the big house. Mrs. Yuan was so angry that she smashed a set of fine blue and white porcelain tea sets, "A bunch of trash! They can''t even deal with a poor student, and they messed up the matter and even implicated me." A nun next to me advised: "Madam, please don''t get so angry. The most important thing now is how to finish. Don''t let the rubble damage the jade." The rubble refers to Qin Chi. Jade is Mrs. Yuan. Mrs. Yuan calmed down and said, "Send people to kill them on the way again. We must not let anyone enter the capital. Remember, we must do it cleanly this time." "Yes, ma''am." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The grandma left in response. Rich families maintain a group of nursing homes in their homes. The actual nursing homes are far more than what they appear on the surface. They also have a group of thugs outside. Mrs. Yuan''s natal family raised a lot of them privately. Before getting married, Mrs. Yuan acted unscrupulously. The number of innocent souls who died at her hands could not be counted on ten fingers. When someone here moves. Someone immediately passed the news to Qin Chi. Qin Chi received the news early in the morning the next day, when the sky was still gray and bright. After reading the secret letter, I found that Song Jin had also woken up. Qin Chi threw the secret letter into the charcoal basin, "Madam, the other party took the bait. I just don''t know how many monsters and monsters the Yuan family and the Yang family will bring out when they fight." He wanted to make the water in the capital even more muddy. This will allow fish hiding at the bottom to come to the surface. Song Jin listened and said nothing. Qin Chi got up and returned to the bed, got into the bed, "Let''s sleep a little longer." "You forgot, you still have to rush for the exam?" Song Jin reached out and tucked him in. Qin Chi smiled and said: "Today is only the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, so I can make it in time." The general examination is similar to the provincial examination. The ninth day of the Lunar New Year is a formal examination, and candidates must enter the examination room in advance on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. If there are no accidents today, we can arrive in the capital in the afternoon. Old Li Tou and Qin Ba had prepared their food early. He also **** the carriage. The luggage was also put on the carriage. Everything is ready, just waiting for the two masters to get up. Qin Chi and Song Jin did not keep them waiting. When the sun came up, the two had breakfast and stepped out of the room. Song Jin looked at the sunrise in the east, "The weather is quite good today. Not only is there no snow, but the sun is also out. The sun shines warmly on people." He pulled Qin Chi and stood in the sunshine. Qin Chi led her outside. The carriage has been prepared for a long time. Song Jin unexpectedly saw a low-key and luxurious carriage. No need to guess that it belongs to Yang Yingrong. As Song Jin got on the carriage, he joked: "This carriage looks much more elegant than ours. When we walk together on the official road, it will be clear who is the master and who is the follower." "That''s good." This is what Qin Chi wants. Chapter 244 Ambush in Bamboo Forest Chapter 244 Ambush in the Bamboo Forest "Ouch, wait, my young master hasn''t come out yet." A boy from the Yang family wearing a cotton-padded jacket ran out. Old Li Tou asked curiously: "If your young master can''t come out, what does it have to do with us?" "Isn''t it a rough road? Wouldn''t it be safer if we walked together?" The boy''s eyes rolled around. Yang Yingrong came out wearing a fox fur cloak. There was darkness around his eyes and a haggard look on his face. It was obvious that he had not had a good rest last night. When the boy opened the curtain, he got on the carriage without saying a word. The distress letter was sent back. But there was no reply! The Yi Cheng sent the thief to the Yamen, but there was no movement. Not even a single officer or soldier was sent to protect him. It was strange that Yang Yingrong could sleep at all. He always felt that there was a thief trying to kill him, so he would lie down with his eyes wide open until dawn. When he learned that Qin Chi was going to Beijing, he couldn''t sit still and wait for death. Without much thought, he decided to go with him, at least he would have a companion on the way back to Beijing. Qin Chi noticed that Song Jin was paying attention to the outside, and gently squeezed her little hand, "No need to look, everything is going as we imagined." "I thought some officials would come to inquire." Song Jin said this with a bit of self-mockery. Qin Chi said softly: "You have overestimated the speed of the Yamen''s handling of the case. Yi Cheng sent the person there overnight, and he was only locked up in the prison. He would not go out to wake up the county magistrate." Wait for those people to wake up and work. The sun has already risen very high. Old Li Tou had already received Qin Chi''s instructions and asked loudly to the boy behind him who was about to drive: "Brother, do you want to go in front, or should we go in front?" The boy turned around and asked the carriage. Yang Yingrong''s voice came from the carriage: "Let Qin Jieyuan go first." So the boy conveyed Yang Yingrong''s intention. For the masters and servants of the Yang family, when they encounter obstacles on the road, the person walking in front has to block them. There are two carriages on Qin Chi''s side. One car contained several people''s luggage and Huizhou''s specialties. The driver was originally Qin Ba, but now he was replaced by Lao Li Tou. The car Qin Chi and Song Jin were riding in was replaced by Qin Ba as the driver, and Qin Qi sat on the other side of the shaft. After they set off. The carriage did not move very fast, only slightly faster than walking. On the road near the capital, there is a section where the number of villages becomes fewer and fewer as you go, and even pedestrians are scattered in the winter. Suddenly, the carriage slowed down. Qin Bazhen reported: "Master, there are two people blocking the road. They are carrying book boxes on their backs, and they are probably students rushing to take exams." Sure enough, wait for the carriage to stop. A student came up and cupped his hands and said: "This brother, Xiaosheng Lu Baizhou, went to Beijing with his friends to take the exam. He lost part of his luggage on the way. He is really tired after walking for so long, so he came here shamelessly, hoping to ride on the carriage." Hearing that, the student also stepped forward. The two of them looked at Qin Ba expectantly. Qin Ba couldn''t decide on this matter. Qin Chi opened the curtain and said, "If you two don''t mind, you can sit in the carriage at the back." "I don''t dislike it, I don''t dislike it, thank you brother." Lu Baizhou thanked him repeatedly and led his friend to Lao Litou''s carriage. After getting on Lao Litou''s carriage, it was natural that even Lao Di could be lured out. The two of them were indeed going to Beijing to take the exam, but their luck was not good. The coachman fell ill on the way, so they had no choice but to rent a car together. Unexpectedly, the car had not been rented yet, and their wallets had been stolen at some point. Can only walk on legs. There was nothing to eat on the road, so I had to sell books. I got here with many bumps and bumps along the way. Little did the two know that something more exciting was waiting for them. Because Lao Litou''s carriage stopped. Yang Yingrong''s carriage passed by and happened to be in the middle of the three carriages. Whether intentionally or not, Lao Litou''s carriage did not pass him again. At noon. The carriage passed by a bamboo forest. The ambush is coming. "kill!" Sixteen masked men armed with swords rushed out of the bamboo forest. Without saying anything, he rushed towards the three carriages. Six of them rushed towards Qin Chi''s carriage, and the rest rushed towards Yang Yingrong''s carriage, while Lao Li Tou''s carriage was ignored. The Yang family''s carriage is the best. At first glance, it must be the master''s seat. If not the people in the car, who else would be killed? According to the news received before, there are two carriages targeted for interception. As for why there is an extra car, it is not within their scope of consideration. They just need to complete the task. "Assholes! Do you know who we are?" The boy''s face turned pale with fright, and he was trembling as he spoke. On the contrary, Yang Yingrong came out with a long sword and kicked the annoying boy away, "Go away, you are disturbing me here." Yang Yingrong pointed his sword at the leading masked man and said with an arrogant attitude: "With your face covered, do you think that this young master doesn''t know who you are? Wait, I have sent a letter home. Even if you die here today, your Yuan family will not know who you are." Think about it! If this young master is not dead today, he will definitely kill Yuan Shipeng in the future!" These words. Extremely arrogant. The masked men who rushed towards me suddenly stopped one by one. Then they all turned to look at the leader. The leader was also shocked. Didn''t he come to kill a student who went to Beijing to take the exam? Who is Yang Yingrong? Who doesn''t know this dandy in the capital? They all know this person. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Oops, wrong person! The leader turned to look at the carriage in front of him. The people over there were already fighting, and three people were lying on the ground, their lives and deaths unknown. Just as they were about to retreat. Unexpectedly, a group of people hurriedly came to the official road ahead. "Hurry and save people!" It was the Yang family who came to meet Yang Yingrong. The leader is Yang Yingrong''s eldest brother. At first, the Yang family didn''t believe that the Yuan family would kill Yang Yingrong. First of all, Mr. Yang Ge didn''t believe it. The superficial disagreement between him and Yuan Shangshu was also a tacit understanding. It was just a show in front of the emperor. But he was not afraid of ten thousand but afraid of the worst, so he asked Master Yang to take someone to pick him up at the inn. Yang Yingrong confronted a group of masked men. From a distance, the situation looks critical. Just shoot it with one arrow! call out! One arrow kills one person. Another arrow! Blocked by a defensive masked man. The leading masked man suddenly said, "Retreat! Escape quickly!" As soon as he said this, he took the lead to escape to the bamboo forest. The others listened and quickly followed. The six people who attacked Qin Chi and his carriage were all lying down. The other ones who escaped could not escape the horses with their own two legs. The Yang family''s guards, led by Young Master Yang, were in hot pursuit. Finally, they were all captured. However, before the Yang family could interrogate him, the captured masked man committed suicide by taking poison one after another. He died very simply, without even a groan. "Damn it, this young master is not done with the Yuan family!" Yang Yingrong was so angry that he stepped forward and stabbed the corpse of the leading masked man several times with his long sword, "Brother, why are you here so slowly? If you were slower, you would be able to catch up and collect the corpse for me." Yang Yingji said coldly: "Who caused this disaster?" Yang Yingrong was silent now. Qin Chi got off the carriage, followed by Song Jin. Song Jin looked at the scene. Corpses were carried to the roadside one after another, their masks had been pulled off, and they were all unfamiliar faces. Song Jin didnt know any of them. Qin Chi also looked at it again and said, "I don''t recognize them at all." At this time, Yang Yingji saw Qin Chi, came forward and cupped his hands and said, "Qin Jieyuan, it''s a pleasure to meet you." "Young Master Yang, thank you for saving me this time." Qin Chi returned the favor gently. Yang Yingji said: "This time it is our Yang family who has caused trouble to you. When we return to the capital, we will make amends at our house." "No, Master Yang is too polite." Qin Chi exchanged greetings with Yang Yingji here. In addition, Lu Baizhou and the two came over tremblingly, their faces turned pale with fright, and their legs were shaking when they walked. This is an unforeseen disaster. The unlucky duo is in trouble! (End of chapter) Chapter 245 Keep your husband in mind Chapter 245 Keep your husband in mind Song Jin stood in front of a corpse. This man is the previous leader, with a Chinese character face, thick eyebrows, and is in his early thirties. Qin Chi was originally talking to Yang Yingji, but saw her looking at a corpse, and then saw Yang Yingrong walking up to her to talk. "Do you know this person?" Yang Yingrong asked. Song Jin glanced at him sideways, then looked away, "I''ve never seen them, but you can draw their faces and ask around outside. You might gain something." "That''s good advice." Yang Yingrong still wanted to get close to her. Someone came over and stood between him and Song Jin. Yang Yingrong had a bad temper, and when he wanted to get angry, he saw that it was Qin Chi, and he immediately took back the curse words. Yang Yingrong smiled and teased: "Tell your wife a few words, Qin Jieyuan doesn''t want to be jealous." "I admire you that Young Master Yang San can still laugh after he has just experienced life and death." Qin Chi''s words were very heartbreaking. As expected, Yang Yingrong''s smile froze. Song Jin inexplicably heard the yin and yang hidden in Qin Chi''s words. The finishing work here is left to the Yang family. Qin Chi, Song Jin and others continued on their way. When they entered the carriage, the curtain blocked the view of the outside world. The couple sat down and couldn''t help but smile at each other. Even if the truth behind the previous incident at the inn was investigated by the Yang family, then the interception and killing in the bamboo forest was witnessed by the Yang family and they could not be cleared up even if they wanted to. They might suspect that the Yuan family wanted to take the opportunity to kill Yang Yingrong. . The carriage moves forward. Song Jin said softly: "This matter went surprisingly smoothly." "We are lucky." Qin Chi knew the doubts in her heart, "Yang Yingrong and Yuan Shipeng have never dealt with each other. This matter is not a secret in the capital." "Oh? Is there a gap between them?" Song Jin felt a little interested. Earlier, Song Jin said that he wanted to collect evidence of the Yang family''s crimes, and left the matter to Qin Chi''s people. Therefore, Qin Chi happened to know something about Yang Yingrong. "Last year, Yang Yingrong was sent by his mother to live with his uncle in Huizhou to avoid trouble. It was Yuan Shipeng who instigated someone to set up a trap for Yang Yingrong, and he was shot by the gangster who acted as a gunman. Yang Yingrong was injured on the spot. I heard that he took care of him for three months before he got out of bed." Qin Chi knew this. Qin Chi currently doesn''t know that Yang Yingrong came to Yuan Shipeng to ridicule him. The informants in Huizhou knew about it, but they would not specifically write secret letters to Qin Chi for such trivial matters. They would usually send them to Shopkeeper Tao through normal channels. Shopkeeper Tao would go through them and then select the ones that might be useful and compile them into a book. Otherwise, Qin Chi would not have so much time to look at all the big and small things that had to be reported. Wait for Qin Chi to return to his residence in the capital. You can probably see the information on the case. Letting the Yuan family and the Yang family fight, Song Jin didn''t feel any psychological burden. Yuan Shangshu is not a clean official. I dont know how many corruption and bending of the law have been done. Song Jin remembered that in the year when he died of illness, major events occurred in the capital. It was said that a large number of officials were confiscated and exiled, and three of the six ministers were beheaded. It was said that they were all corrupt officials. After this incident, the emperor died. Song Jin didn''t even know who the new emperor was. Huizhou is too far away from the capital, and it will take some time for the new emperor to be passed over, because at that time Song Jin was ill in bed and was not going to die soon. The only regret was that he could not find Song''s father. Qin Chi noticed something strange about Song Jin. Her expression seemed to be reminiscing, with a hint of sadness between her brows. This was not the first time Qin Chi had seen her like this. The one who could make her like this must be the missing Song family. The carriage entered the city smoothly. After more than two years of absence, Song Jin is back. When I got off the carriage, I saw Mrs. Kang, my neighbor, opening the door and sticking her head out. "Oh, it''s Mrs. Qin?!" Aunt Kang said in surprise, "You followed your husband to the capital again." "Aunt Kang, long time no see." Song Jin greeted with a smile. Aunt Kang came out of the room, exchanged a few words with Song Jin, and learned that Qin Chi had been successful. When she looked at Qin Chi again, her eyes lit up, like a big dog seeing flesh and bones. Before Mrs. Kang could speak. Song Jin took the lead and said: "I just got here and there are a lot of things at home, so I won''t talk to you anymore. I have time to chat with you." "Okay, Madam Qin, go ahead." Aunt Kang waved her hand, then walked to the door of her house. When she got back, she told her family that the young couple named Qin next door were back again, and the man had won the imperial examination. Be a neighbor with a juren. This is a great thing. Children who have the opportunity to study at home may be able to get some pointers from each other. Old man Hong came to open the door and asked his servants to carry the luggage. Song Jin and Qin Chi will not take care of the rest. Qin Chi and Song Jin went in one after another. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi said amusedly: "Madam, you know Aunt Kang very well? We haven''t seen each other for more than two years, and we still have such a happy conversation." "Don''t you know best whether it''s familiar or not?" Song Jin asked with a smile. Seeing Qin Chi smiling and saying nothing, he added, "Between people, familiarity is the second most important thing, and eye contact is the most important. Aunt Kang thinks I''m a good person, and every time Everyone greets me warmly when they see me. I am a person who knows etiquette and naturally I will not lose face. "As a husband, just ask." "I answered very seriously." Song Jin passed Qin Chi and entered the dormitory first. The dormitory was cleaned frequently and looked very clean. There was also a charcoal basin lit in the room. This showed that Uncle Hong had already received the news that they were coming and had prepared everything in advance. The servants prepared hot water. After the two washed up, they had something to eat. Next comes rest. Song Jin didn''t let Qin Chi bother him any more, and specially asked Doctor Jing to ask for a safe pulse for Qin Chi. "Doctor Jing is here very well." Song Jin just sent someone to invite him, but within half a quarter of an hour, he came over. Doctor Jing stroked his beard and smiled: "I live next door." The left side of their house is the Kang family, and the right side was bought by Qin Chi''s people to house the people who usually protect Qin Chi. Half of the secret guards settled in the right yard. The other half lives behind the house. Only a wall separates them. If something happens here, you can respond quickly. Doctor Jing usually lives with the secret guards. After taking his pulse, Dr. Jing gave Qin Chi a prescription for conditioning. At the same time, he prescribed two large packages of medicine for the couple to take medicinal baths, mainly to dispel cold. It was freezing cold along the way. It''s normal to feel cold. Song Jin watched Doctor Jing leave, and then arranged for someone to boil the medicine and prepare the medicinal bath. When she came back, she saw Qin Chi sitting in the dormitory, looking at her with a smile but not a smile, "Madam, are you so worried about my illness?" "I''m worried." Song Jin didn''t hide anything and said frankly, "It''s been a tiring journey, what if you suddenly fall ill again? Do you still want to participate in the exam? It''s also a good thing to ask Dr. Jing to prescribe a preventive medicine first." "Then the wife is worried because her husband is working hard." Qin Chi stood up and bowed to Song Jin in a decent manner, "My wife''s thoughts will be kept in my husband''s heart." Song Jin saluted with a smile. Then the two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing. Chapter 246 Will try Chapter 246 Trial While waiting for Qin Chi to take a medicinal bath. Song Jin went to see Dr. Jing privately. Asked about Qin Chi''s body. Then he mentioned the rumors in Qinjiagou that Qin Chi was about to die soon. Dr. Jing noticed Song Jin''s worry and comforted him: "Madam, the young master''s weakness has been almost cured. As long as he doesn''t mess around and takes medicine on time, it won''t be a problem to live to his seventies or eighties." "Are you telling the truth?" The surprise on Song Jin''s face was not concealed. Doctor Jing nodded, "But the young master won''t let me mention this matter to outsiders." "Then am I causing trouble for you?" Song Jin finally felt relieved when she heard that Qin Chi was fine. After all, this was something she had been thinking about for a long time. Doctor Jing said happily: "Madam is not an outsider." After hearing this, Song Jin said with a smile: "That''s a very good reason. If my husband-in-law asks, I will use this reason to shut his mouth." "Hahaha" Settled down. Song Jin occasionally paid attention to the affairs of the Yang family and the Yuan family, but his biggest focus was on Qin Chi''s body. After Song Jin''s careful care. Qin Chizhou had been working hard for nearly a month, but for the first time in this winter season, he didn''t get sick. Until the eighth day of February, people were still very energetic. Song Jin personally sent Qin Chi to Gongyuan. The carriage almost had an accident on the way. A bullock cart rushed out of the alley. The big bull pulling the cart was unknowingly stimulated, and he rushed madly towards the carriage of Qin Chi and Song Jin. It was the secret guard disguised as a passerby who took action in time to control the mad bull. An accident was avoided. The carriage passed the scene of the accident. Song Jin lifted the car curtain and looked back. When she lowered the curtain, the smile on her face disappeared. But in order to avoid affecting Qin Chi''s mentality of taking the exam, she said nothing. Qin Chi held Song Jin''s hand, "Madam, do you suspect someone is coming for me?" "It''s not doubtful, it''s confirmed." Song Jin didn''t believe this was a coincidence. The imperial court always attached great importance to the imperial examination. The streets are frequently patrolled by officers and soldiers, and roads in some important places have been closed. Candidates need to get the test card today, and then go to Sunchon Gongyuan on the next day under the guidance of the master who will take the test. Candidates can only enter the examination room after their identity has been verified. After Qin Chi arrived in the capital, he never left home. Today is the first time to go out. He didn''t expect that someone would still be following him despite being so low-key. Song Jin looked at Qin Chi complicatedly. How much is this person hated in the Imperial College? "Madam, can you please stop looking at me like that? It makes me feel bad." Qin Chi said half-jokingly. Song Jin looked away in embarrassment, "You can take the exam in peace. Uncle Li and I will investigate the outside matters." "Well, I feel relieved to have a wife." Qin Chi''s tone was natural, which made Song Jin''s ears itch slightly. Until the person is sent to the location. Qin Chi got off the carriage. There were officers and soldiers blocking the road, and even the carriage could not pass. Qin Chi identified the candidate and the officers and soldiers let him go. Not long after he entered, he saw an acquaintance who was waving to him. "Brother Qi''an!" Lu Yanji shouted. Next to Lu Yanji, stood Qin Mingsong, who was a very talented person. Lu Yanji came to the capital last year. Qin Chi wanted to stay in Yi County to spend the New Year with his family. Qin Mingsong asked: "When did Dalang arrive? I went to see you on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and the concierge said you haven''t arrived in the capital yet." "The roads are difficult in winter, so we were delayed for a few days." Qin Chi explained simply, and then he started to ask, "Have you received your examination license? I haven''t received it yet." "Then go quickly." Lu Yanji urged. Two people have already received it. Seeing this, Qin Chi went to line up first. More than 10,000 candidates gathered together, and many candidates felt uncertain. You should know that there are not many places admitted for each general examination, usually only about 300. After verifying his true identity. Then go through a strict body search. It''s really very strict. In such a cold weather, candidates have to work in pairs, enter a temporary shed, then take off their clothes and hand them over to an officer or soldier for inspection. Another officer and soldier wanted to check whether there were any writing on the candidate''s body, even the armpits and inner thighs. After the previous exams, Qin Chi was relatively calm. After entering the venue, you will find your own room. I''m very lucky, it''s not a bad name. After he finished cleaning the room, it didn''t take long for the pens, inks, paper and inkstones to be laid out. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The exam also started. First, a government official came over holding a wooden sign. The first test is about policy theory and test poems. Qin Chi raised his head and quickly copied down the test questions on the wooden sign, and then read them carefully after he finished copying them. The content of the comprehensive examination is similar to that of the provincial examination. It still tests the Four Books and Five Classics, policy questions and poems, but it is more difficult and the requirements are stricter. The examination questions will be reviewed and approved by the emperor himself. to ensure fairness and authority. After each exam, the test papers are sealed and numbered by the examiner, and then marked by another group of examiners to ensure fairness. It''s ugly time, Qin Chi is immersed in the exam. Song Jin was still awake outside. The owner of the oxcart is an old farmer who has been detained by the secret guards. No matter how he is interrogated, it is an accident that he will be killed. Even if Lao Li used torture, he could not make the other party relent. Song Jin put his hands in his sleeves. She watched the whole process quietly, saying nothing. In fact, everyone almost forgot about her existence. "Uncle Li, there is no need for further interrogation." Song Jin suddenly spoke. This silenced the room. There was a brazier in the interrogation room, which was very bright even at night. The expressions on everyone''s faces are clearly illuminated. Old Li Tou was surprised, "Madam, there must be someone behind him. I don''t believe we can''t pry his mouth open." "Okay, he would rather die than say anything. Either it was an accident, or he was threatened and couldn''t say anything. Is there anything more important than his life?" Song Jin seemed to speak carelessly, but paid attention to the old man''s reaction. Old Li Tou cooperated: "I am familiar with this person. I will send someone to look for him at his house. If there is no one there, he is probably under control. If there is someone, I will catch him. He dares to harm my young master, ha..." The old man finally showed anxiety on his face. Song Jin could guess from the old man''s reaction that the only person who could make him die rather than speak out was his relatives. During the day, the identity of the old man has been found out, and people have been sent out of the city to find his family. It''s just that the time is unlucky, it''s midnight when I get back, and the city gate must have been closed. We''ll find out tomorrow. Song Jin turned around and left the temporary interrogation room. Lao Litou did not continue the trial. Only one person is left here to watch. Song Jin went back to the dormitory and took a quick nap. When he woke up the next day, Lao Li Tou had already found out the truth. The secret guard brought back the old man''s family, and the old man finally revealed the person who instigated them. Old Li Tou said: "This family is a tenant of Mrs. Yuan''s dowry farm. The day before yesterday, a nanny came to his house and asked him to do this. If he doesn''t do it, his family will be kicked out of the farm." "How stupid." Song Jin cursed in a low voice. Old Li Tou said again: "This matter has nothing to do with Mrs. Yuan." Therefore, Mrs. Yuan is really stupid. Persimmons are specially selected to be soft for pinching. In Mrs. Yuan''s eyes, Qin Chi is undoubtedly a soft persimmon. Chapter 247 cunning Chapter 247: Old and cunning Song Jin thought of the previous incident, "Uncle Li, the Yang family has been investigating the matter of the inn and the bamboo forest for three or four days, but they haven''t attacked the Yuan family yet. This is more calm than expected." "The Yang family is collecting evidence." Old Li Tou thought of Mr. Yang Ge and said, "With old and cunning people like Mr. Yang Ge sitting in charge, after weighing the pros and cons, they will not be so easy to act impulsively." Song Jin knew that the Yang family really wanted to investigate. It is not difficult to find out Mrs. Yuan and then find out that Yang Yingrong is implicated. But even if it was found out, it was too late. The Yang family had killed more than a dozen people from the Yuan family and had already gotten involved. Song Jin''s eyes flashed slightly, "Let''s add more fuel to the fire." "How do you say that?" Old Li Tou was confused. Song Jin could only wait and see, "Find someone to secretly deliver a message to Mrs. Yuan, saying that Yang Yingrong threatened to kill Yuan Shipeng." "Is this useful?" "Everything that is useful should be brought to light. Sometimes the more people try to cover up a mistake, the bigger the mistake will be." Song Jin thought of Mrs. Yuan''s character. I learned that the person sent almost killed Yang Yingrong. In addition, Yang Yingrong wanted to kill her son. What will Mrs. Yuan do? Song Jin thought for a while and said, "If you find someone to tell you in front of Yang Yingrong, how can a person like Yuan Shipeng be willing to go into exile? In all likelihood, he will find someone to take his place." "Madam, you suspect that Yuan Shipeng did not go into exile?" Old Li Tou asked in surprise. Song Jin sneered and said: "How could Mrs. Yuan let her beloved son really suffer the pain of exile? I heard that as long as all the joints are opened and someone is found to take his place in prison, there are many examples. Once the punishment is over, the prisoner can be upright again. ''s appearance. Such examples were numerous in the Great Xia Dynasty. Usually it is not stated openly. Old Li''s mouth twitched slightly, "Will the Yuan family be so bold? The palace also knows about Yuan Shipeng." "How can Madam Yuan be so timid if she dares to intercept and kill her son openly?" Song Jin was not 100% sure. But he just passed the news to the Yang family. Let the Yang family investigate. It''s the best that can be found, and the Yuan family has another clue. By then, even if the Yuan family said that Yuan Shipeng had been kicked out of the family, no one else would believe it. "Old Li, do as Madam orders." A voice came in from outside. It was Old Man Hong and Shopkeeper Tao, who strode into the hall. At this time, Old Man Hong had an evil look on his face. Apparently Mrs. Yuan had angered him by repeatedly trying to harm Qin Chi. Song Jin greeted Shopkeeper Tao. The two of them can be said to be old acquaintances. Shopkeeper Tao arrived in the capital some time before them. Qin Chi was still taking exams in Gongyuan, so several people got together and began to discuss how to add fuel to the flames. That night, Mrs. Yuan was so angry that she smashed something again. He turned to look at the grandma who was doing the work angrily, "What''s going on? Isn''t the person we want to kill a poor student? Why is that dude from the Yang family involved?" "lady." Mammy knelt on the ground tremblingly, "None of the people I sent came back." No one can be seen in life, no corpse in death. Mrs. Yuan Da was furious, "Time after time, nothing is done properly, what use do you have?" After saying that, the bowl of tea in his hand hit grandma on the head. After Mrs. Yuan vented her anger, she gradually calmed down and said with a gloomy face: "The Yang family are all villains. They will add insult to injury when I, Peng''er, are in trouble. It is not a pity for Yang Yingrong to die. You should write a letter to inform Peng''er now and ask him to be careful. Be careful, don''t let the Yang family find you." "Yes, it''s madam. I''ll do it right now." The nanny bowed her head and backed away with her **** forehead. In front of the door, I bumped into the Yuan family uncle who barged in with an angry look on his face. He pushed Mammy away. Then he strode to Mrs. Yuan and slapped her in the face, "Bitch! Who gave you the courage to kill the Yang family?!" Mrs. Yuan was stunned by her husband''s slap. The uncle of the Yuan family angrily rebuked: "That dandy Yang Yingrong, there are so many people in the capital who can''t stand him. But no one dares to touch him? Do you know why?" Mrs. Yuan naturally knows why. But the Yuan family is bad? "Do you think you just rely on Mr. Yang Ge?" The uncle of the Yuan family was very angry, "The Yang family is different in the emperor''s heart. Do you know the reason? It was because of the deceased Concubine Shu. She did not die of illness, but died to save the emperor." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! With this life-saving kindness, as long as the Yang family does not rebel, and as long as the Holy Sage is in power, the Yang family will be fine. This time, if someone from below had not come to report that one of his thugs was missing on a mission, the Yuan family would have asked people to investigate, otherwise they would still be kept in the dark. Uncle Yuan asked his wife what she had done. Under the cannibalistic gaze of her husband, Mrs. Yuan hesitated and spoke out. When he learned the cause and effect, Uncle Yuan was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. He pointed at Mrs. Yuan''s face and cursed: "Idiot! You not only provoked the Yang family, but also provoked the potential champion! You, you ,You really deserve to die..." In a rage, he pushed Mrs. Yuan down. He hurriedly ran to his father Yuan Shangshu to discuss it. Who among the upper circles of the capital does not know that if there is no accident, the number one scholar this time will be none other than Qin Qi''an. He graduated from the Imperial College in just two years. This has never happened since the founding of the Imperial College. Almost on the same day. Several men from the main room of the Yang family came to Mr. Yang Ge''s study to talk. Yang Yingrong said he wanted to investigate Yuan Shipeng, "I don''t believe that guy will go into exile obediently. As long as this is exposed and the evidence is found, the Yuan family will be dead." Yang Yingji said nothing. Their fathers didn''t say anything, and both looked at Mr. Yang Ge who was sitting in the main seat. Mr. Yang Ge was dressed in casual clothes. His hair and beard are slightly gray, but the traces of time seem to add to his majesty. On the Chinese character''s face, his cheeks were slightly red, and it was easy to see that even though he was over sixty years old, his body was still strong. "According to what you said, the other party went for Qin Qian, and Rong''er was just unlucky enough to be involved?" Mr. Yang Ge glanced at his son and grandson. Yang Yingji said truthfully: "Grandpa, according to the investigation, the group of people at the post station went to destroy Qin Qian. But the killer ambushing in the bamboo forest, judging from the situation at the time, wanted to intercept and kill the third brother. If I had been too late, If he takes one step forward, he will be killed on the spot. "The truth has been found out, but it''s a bit unusual. Why did the Yuan family suddenly want to kill Rong''er?" the father of the two brothers asked. Yang Yingrong lowered his head with a guilty conscience. Mr. Yang Ge''s eyes were sharp, "Rong''er, do you have anything to say?" "I, I just went to visit him when he was in exile." Yang Yingrong was afraid of his grandfather. He lowered his head when he spoke and did not dare to raise it. Mr. Yang Ge said solemnly: "Be honest." It was impossible to hide it at this time. Yang Yingrong finished his words while stumbling. When I found out that this guy went all the way from Huizhou Prefecture to the provincial capital just to mock Yuan Shipeng, I was really furious. Chapter 248 The test is over Chapter 248 The end of the examination Yang Ge''s old finger pointed at Yang Yingrong, bit by bit, blowing his beard and glaring in anger, but he didn''t want to lose his previous majesty, "Have you ever thought about the benefits to our Yang family if we want to defeat the Yuan family?" ? The two families are equally powerful. In a life-and-death fight, both sides are likely to lose. Yang Yingji asked: "Then we ignore it?" "It is a fact that the Yuan family attacked Rong''er. We have to control it within a certain degree, but the Yang family cannot bring it out." Mr. Yang Ge has been in the officialdom for decades, and it is not for nothing. Taking advantage of this, Mr. Yang Ge once again taught his children and grandchildren, "Yuan Shangshu was personally promoted by the emperor, and he holds a great deal of weight in the emperor''s heart. If we come forward to defeat Yuan Shangshu, the emperor is likely to be suspicious of the Yang family and whether the Yang family Excluding dissidents..." Nowadays, the Yang family is very prosperous in the court. It was like a raging fire cooking oil. If there was not Prince Rui in front of him, the Yang family would have attracted much attention. After Yang Gelao''s words, the others somewhat restrained themselves. "It''s indeed the old fox!" Song Jin paid attention to the Yuan and Yang families for several days and saw movement from the Yuan family, but no action from the Yang family. The Yuan family is finishing their work. It''s a pity it''s too late. The evidence is already in the hands of the person who should have it. Then the news came out that Mrs. Yuan was seriously ill. As soon as Song Jin heard about it, he knew that the Yuan family wanted to abandon the car to save the handsome man. It would be difficult for Song Jin and Qin Chi to face off against Yuan Shangshu now. If they had to face off against the Yuan family, Qin Chi would have to expose a lot of things, and the gain would not be worth the loss. After hearing that Mrs. Yuan was seriously ill. That is to say, we know that the culprit will not survive. Old Li Tou said regretfully: "If the Yang family doesn''t move, we won''t be able to fish in troubled waters." "That old guy Yang Zhengkai is very cautious." Old Man Hong is more familiar with these veterans of the imperial court than anyone present, "Don''t make any arbitrary decisions on this matter, lest you push the young master into the limelight and ruin the young master''s plan. Yang Zhengkai''s third grandson was almost killed, and with this tone, he I wont bear it. Im just worried about the man in the palace, so he probably wont take revenge on the Yuan family. The grandson was almost killed, but Yang Jiaruo did not express his position. In the future, when political opponents deal with the Yang family, they will have less scruples. Until the last day of trial. Outside the gate of Gongyuan, there were many people and carriages guarding. Song Jin knew that there would be candidates coming out today, so she went out early and prepared some things in the carriage that would be needed as soon as Qin Chi came out. In addition, she specially cooked a pot of ginseng tea and put it on a small charcoal stove. Into the carriage. Originally, she wanted Doctor Jing to go with her. Old Man Hong and Shopkeeper Tao stopped him, saying that it was difficult to find a doctor in the capital now, and it would be too intrusive to ask the doctor to follow him. Waited for quite some time. Finally, some candidates came out of the examination room. The first person to come out was Qin Chi. Qin Chi has a long body and extraordinary grace. It was just that after many days of exams, he was obviously tired and haggard, his robes had obvious wrinkles, and his beard had grown out, which made him look a little embarrassed. His outstanding temperament almost made people ignore him. The first person to leave the examination room must have attracted much attention. Almost all the relatives, servants, and attendants waiting around turned their attention to him. Some people have already begun to discuss who Qin Chi is. Some acquaintances lowered their heads and whispered. Song Jin was originally sitting in the carriage. After Qin Qi reminded him, he got out of the carriage in surprise and walked quickly towards Qin Chi. "Ms. sir!" Song Jin''s voice came out. There was silence. Come on, this is an owner. The person who originally harbored special thoughts about a son-in-law gave up now. Song Jin stepped forward and held Qin Chi''s arm. "My lady, I''m here to pick me up." Qin Chi thought that he hadn''t washed himself for many days and wondered if there was any strange smell. After all, he couldn''t smell it himself, but others might. The body was quite stiff. Seeing that Song Jin''s attitude was as usual, he was relieved. But he still didn''t let Song Jin help him. Instead, he reached out to hold her hand and walked towards the carriage. Old Li Tou and Qin Qi were leading the way. Qin Chi got into the car tiredly. Song Jin got in and poured another bowl of ginseng tea, "Drink a bowl of ginseng tea first, and then take a good rest." "Okay." Qin Chi took the tea bowl, lowered his head and drank. Song Jin, who was sitting quietly aside, looked at Qin Chi secretly. When he saw that he looked tired, not sick, he finally let go of his worries. The carriage began to leave slowly. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! After Qin Chi left. Candidates are coming out of the examination room one after another. There are also people who faint after walking a few steps, or whose legs are so weak that they cannot walk and need help from others. But these have nothing to do with Song Jin and the others. When returning, Qin Chi went to take a bath first and then drank a bowl of assorted porridge. Doctor Jing has been waiting in the hall for a long time. The main purpose is to help Qin Chi feel his pulse and check his body. If this treatment were spread outside, it would be incredible. Every time there is an imperial examination, not only will the business in the capital be good, but doctors will also be scarce. Some candidates come out sick and may not even be able to get a doctor. Qin Chi was relieved now and let Dr. Jing take his pulse and prescribe the prescription. He said to Old Li Tou: "Uncle Li, drive the carriage to the gate of Gongyuan. If my brother-in-law comes out, you can pick him up if he needs you. , Forget it if you dont need it, theres Lu Yanji, just help me if you need anything. "Okay, I''ll go right away." Lao Litou did not refuse. If the relationship between the young master and his brother-in-law is not good, that is also a family matter. Outsiders won''t know. Wait for Lao Li Tou to drive away in his carriage. When Song Jin saw Qin Chi, she wanted to go to the study, "Aren''t you tired, sir?" "I was very tired when I came out, but now I''m not tired. I guess the cup of ginseng tea took effect." Qin Chi looked at her with a smile, as if waiting for her to say something else. Song Jin turned to look at Shopkeeper Tao and Old Man Hong, "Are those things urgent? Can''t we put them aside first?" The two of them also wanted Qin Chi to rest first. Seeing this, Qin Chi could only give up and go to the study instead of going back to the dormitory. Song Jin followed him and watched him lie down on the bed. Then he stopped staring at him. But after a while, he saw that he didn''t close his eyes for a long time, so he said angrily: "Don''t you know how your body is doing? I really think you do. Its made of iron. Its pretty good that I didnt fall ill in the exam room. This is due to Dr. Jings constant care. Qin Chi moved his body inside, moved a position next to him, patted Song Jin gently, and motioned for Song Jin to lie down, "Come to sleep with me for a while, and we''ll talk before going to bed." See how stubborn he is. Song Jin had no choice but to comply with his wishes. Take off your shoes and go to bed, then cover yourself with a quilt. Qin Chi asked softly: "How are things going with the Yang family and the Yuan family?" "It has not gone as we expected. The Yang family has not taken any action yet. However, Uncle Hong said that Mr. Yang Ge will not swallow his anger, but it is unknown when he will take action." Song Jin briefly recounted what happened these days. I guess I was thinking about this before. After finding out, Qin Chi fell asleep not long after. Chapter 249 Gifts from Yuan Mansion Chapter 249 Yuan Mansion gives gifts When Qin Chi woke up, it was already the next morning. After sweeping away his previous fatigue, he also found that Song Jin was no longer in the room. Get dressed and go out. I saw Qin Mingsong and Lu Yanji in the courtyard. The two of them were sitting in the courtyard drinking tea and discussing the test questions for this exam. Yesterday Lao Li went to pick them up. The two of them did not choose to stay in Qin Chi''s place. They all knew that Qin Chi''s house was very small and all the guest rooms were occupied by servants. Qin Mingsong bothered Old Li Tou to send him back to the academy. Lu Yanji has a bookboy to pick him up and drop him off, so he doesn''t need to bother Old Li. Both of them came to visit Qin Chi this morning. I just finished taking the exam and wanted to sit down and have a chat. "Qian, are you awake?" Lu Yanji stood up and greeted politely. Qin Chi walked over, said hello to Qin Mingsong, and sat on the stool next to them, "You guys came quite early." "I heard that you were the first to leave the examination room yesterday, but you looked more tired than us." Lu Yanji joked. I was so tired yesterday. But the advantage is that you are young, and you will feel more energetic once you sleep. Qin Mingsong was also looking at Qin Chi. Qin Chi smiled and said: "My health is not good, what if I need more rest? I''m lucky that I didn''t fall ill." After he mentioned it. Its true! After a while, Lao Li brought tea. The breakfast the cook gave Qin Chiwen was ready. Qin Chi asked politely: "Would you two like to eat something together?" "No, we all had breakfast before coming." Lu Yanji refused, and so did Qin Mingsong. Especially when he saw that the breakfast Qin Chi served was very simple, a bowl of white rice porridge, two small steamed buns and a small plate of pickles. Qin Mingsong usually eats better than Qin Chi, "Does Dalang eat this every day?" "Yeah, save money." Qin Chi''s eating movements were very gentle, but his eating speed was not slow. The breakfast visible to the naked eye is finished. Then a mother-in-law came over to take away the dishes. Qin Chi wiped his hands again, and breakfast was settled. "I don''t have much income now. It''s really difficult to live here in the capital. Everything costs money." "How come I don''t believe it so much?" Lu Yanji said with a smile. Qin Chiqing coughed, "Why don''t you believe it?" Lu Yanji said: "Look at your house, how many slaves you have? People without money can''t afford it." Qin Mingsong said nothing. He knew that the silver probably belonged to Song Jin. Qin Chi said indifferently: "Look at the people here. Most of them are elderly. How much money can they get in a dental shop?" It''s true. At this moment, there was a sudden movement at the gate. Old Man Hong slowly opened the door, "Who is it?" "Is this the residence of Qin Qi''an and Qin Juren? I am the steward of the Yuan Mansion. I came to your residence specially to visit and send an invitation to my master." A middle-aged man''s polite voice came from outside. "Hold on." With a bang, Old Man Hong closed the door. Then he walked to the courtyard, and Old Man Hong said respectfully: "Sir, there is someone outside who claims to be the butler of the Yuan Mansion to deliver you an invitation. I see that he is also carrying two boxes of things, which should be gifts for you. "I don''t know Yuan Mansion, I probably sent it to the wrong place." Qin Chi''s ability to tell the truth with his eyes open is average. This is the unanimous thought of several people present. You must know that they just said it, and they directly pointed it out just now that they are here to give Qin Chi a gift. Qin Mingsong''s eyes narrowed slightly, "Yuan Mansion? Which Yuan Mansion?" "have no idea." Qin Chi waved his hand to Old Man Hong to send them away. Old man Hong did as he was told without asking a single question. Qin Mingsong asked strangely: "How come Dalang doesn''t know this? If this Yuan family is the Yuan Shangshu family, you will undoubtedly offend the other party by doing this, which will be detrimental to your future career." "If I didn''t enter the officialdom and started to form cliques for personal gain, I would undoubtedly be ruining my future." Qin Chi said this to the point. Qin Mingsong''s heart suddenly shook. During this time in the capital, he was working everywhere. Why didn''t you think of this? Just at this time, someone outside heard a loud voice: "I am the steward of Yuan Shangshu''s mansion. I came to your mansion specially to visit. I also asked Qin Juren to come out and see me." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi frowned slightly. What does the Yuan family want to do? After Old Man Hong explained the matter, he closed the door directly and stopped talking no matter how many people outside shouted. These dogs from the Yuan family have repeatedly caused trouble for their young master. If he had taken action before, why would he still let them bark outside? The exam had just ended when he came to the door with a heavy gift. If Qin Chi accepts it, will Qin Chi''s reputation be better if word spreads? Lu Yanji and Qin Mingsong didn''t say anything else. However, Yuan Shangshu''s move was very puzzling to the two of them. It''s not like something a minister would do. Waited for another half-quarter of an hour. The Yuan family at the door left. Not only that, the people who were watching nearby also left and hurried back to report the matter to their master. Not to mention the Yuan family. On the contrary, the Yang family was very surprised. Mr. Yang Ge commented: "He is a smart man and has not been fooled." "Didn''t the Yuan family sincerely apologize?" Yang Yingrong didn''t understand. Yang Ge said: "It''s right to come to apologize, but it also depends on when. It makes sense that what the Yuan family has done is exposed. The problem is that what the Yuan family has done now has not spread outside. If Qin Qi''an is at this time What will others think of accepting a gift from the Yuan family?" No one else spoke. Yang Yingji said: "Others will think that Qin Qi''an has taken refuge in Yuan Shangshu. He has openly taken sides before he has won the ranking. Outsiders will think that he is eager for quick success and short-sighted." "Yes, so the Yuan family is not apologizing, but digging a big hole for Qin Qian." Mr. Yang Ge analyzed the pros and cons. Of course, Qin Chi refused the Yuan family''s gift and offended the Yuan family in the eyes of outsiders. It might cause some trouble in the short term, but in the future what the Yuan family did to him would be revealed and the hidden benefits he would gain would be huge. At least his character holds up. You must know that if he is afraid of the Yuan family, when the Yuan family wants to kill him, he will still make excuses with his enemies. At Qin Chi''s age, people will inevitably think that he lacks the integrity of a scholar who is not afraid of power. Sometimes being too shrewd and diplomatic is not a good thing. Yang Yingrong said happily: "Ha, how stupid the Yuan family must be, it can be considered that one stupidity makes a whole family stupid. Qin Qian''s reputation among scholars has become very loud, and he has almost become a leader of the younger generation." "Oh, what do you mean?" Mr. Yang Ge was surprised. Yang Yingrong said: "Oh, you will know if you take a walk outside. Many students worship him. Some of them are as if they are possessed by a demon. They worship him so much." Someone who graduated from the Imperial College in two years. You can imagine how powerful it is. Mr. Yang Ge was thoughtful and took this matter to heart, "For a genius who has not yet matured to confront the Yuan Mansion so early, he is undoubtedly putting an egg on a stone..." "Ha, he is in the same group as our family." "Rong''er is right, thanks to the Yuan family." Chapter 250 old sachet Chapter 250 Old Sachet Qin Chi had been up for so long, but Song Jin was nowhere to be seen. He was thinking about it and was a little distracted while chatting. I found an excuse to ask Lao Litou. Old Li Tou told him, "Madam has gone to the drug store." "Drug shop?" Qin Chi was confused. Old Li Tou said again: "Madam opened a Jifang medicine shop in the west of the city. The shop is not big, and there is no doctor to sit in the hall. She usually just sees the doctor and his apprentice. If you want to go to the hall, you can go, and if you don''t want to go, don''t go. What''s more? , I heard that it has been losing money since opening the shop. "It''s something she can do." Qin Chi said with a smile. How much money can a small pharmacy make? In fact, this drug store is really just a front. Song Jin opened it not to make money. It is mainly used to convey some news, or to meet some subordinates who are inconvenient to show up. If you live in a house where people with unfamiliar faces often come and go, it will easily arouse suspicion among the neighbors. In the future, when Qin Chi enters the officialdom, he will be stared at even more. Outsiders often come by, so it is inevitable that he will attract people''s attention. Of course, Song Jin changed into men''s clothes when he went in and out of the drug store. It is inconvenient for women to wear clothes outside. I came to the drug store today and received some news. Yuan Shangshu went to Yang''s house to visit him, but was disappointed. Mr. Yang Ge refused to see the guests because he had something to do. "Madam, I just received news that the Yuan family came to the door with a heavy gift, but the young master rejected it." Qin Qi came over and reported in a low voice. Song Jin paused in his writing movements. Putting down the brush, Song Jin asked thoughtfully: "What is the purpose of the Yuan family doing this?" "I don''t know." Qin Qi really didn''t want to understand, "Young master must have his reasons for rejecting." "That is, I believe he can handle it." Song Jin sorted out the account books on the counter, put them in the drawer and locked them. She came out this morning because there were guests at home, and the home was so big. Qin Chi didn''t wake up at that time, so it was not convenient for her to be at home. He simply came out to work in the drug store. Song Jin went back in the afternoon. Qin Mingsong and Lu Yanji are no longer here. On the other hand, Qin Chi was busy writing at the desk in the study. When Song Jin went over to look at it, he happened to see him silently writing out a policy statement. Wait until he puts down his pen. Song Jin asked: "Is this a strategy you can try to write?" "Yes, I want to write it down first and use it when I go to ask Mr. Rong for advice." Qin Chi knew that Mr. Rong had returned to Beijing and was thinking about when to visit him. "I want to hand over a greeting note first." Song Jin didn''t know who Mr. Rong was. But she didn''t say much. His eyes fell on the corner of the desk, where there was an invitation. Qin Chi followed her gaze and saw the invitation, "This is from the Yang family. It''s very low-key, for fear of being seen." When he said this, Qin Chi had a smile in his eyes. It''s not a warm smile, it has some unclear meaning in it. Song Jin pointed to the invitation and asked, "Can I pick it up and take a look?" "Please, ma''am." Qin Chi just wanted to say that his wife was a respecter of etiquette. But sometimes he is too polite. Song Jinke didn''t know what Qin Chi was thinking, so he seriously picked up the invitation, opened it and looked at it. The person signing on it was Yang Zhengkai, the old man Yang Ge. He asked Qin Chi to meet privately at Zuixian Tower. The date is early tomorrow morning. "Do you plan to go to the appointment?" Song Jin closed the invitation. Qin Chi said: "Mr. Yang Ge personally sent the message, why should I not go? Of course, he said it was private." Privately means avoiding people. He understood this hint. Song Jin frowned slightly, "Aren''t you afraid of trouble? He''s posting at this time. I think he has bad intentions." "Don''t worry, I have to trust you, my husband." Qin Chi stood up and put his arm around her shoulders, asking her to get closer to him, "Since I am going to enter the officialdom, there will be no shortage of such social activities in the future, so I will adapt to it in advance." Talk about people when you meet people, talk about ghosts when you meet ghosts. Qin Chi is the best at this. The time will soon come to tomorrow. Qin Chi dressed up carefully and prepared to go to Zuixian Tower for an appointment. It is not the attire of a wealthy person, but it is suitable for his status. It is clean and simple, giving people a sense of elegance and purity. However, an old sachet hanging on the waist seems too abrupt. But outsiders won''t say anything after seeing it. He only thinks about the meaning of this sachet to him, which may be a little different. Usually some people have the ability to dress well, but they want to put old things on them. The old things must be different to them. Song Jin looked at the sachet and was stunned for a long time. "What are you looking at, madam?" Qin Chi asked knowingly. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin pointed to the sachet, "This...the one I gave you?" Does Qin Chi want to say it was given by her? He took it away by force when they were parted. However, if the lady says she gave it to her, then thats what she gave it to. Song Jin didn''t know what Qin Chi was thinking. But Qin Chi acquiesced. Song Jin looked at it a few more times and said, "How about I get you a new one?" "Okay, I''m waiting for the sachet embroidered by my wife, but today I will wear this when I go out, because it almost always accompanies me when I am alone." When Qin Chi spoke, his voice was very calm. Song Jin''s heart beat faster when he heard it. Qin Chi went out like this, followed by Lao Li Tou and Qin Ba. Song Jin, who was at home, thought of the sachet and Qin Chi''s words just now, which repeatedly echoed in her mind, and the strange feeling in her heart continued to spread. Very shallow and unfamiliar. It has happened in the past, but it will disappear soon. Song Jin was no longer the age of a young girl Hua Chun. For Qin Chi, she had always respected him as her husband, and they just lived together every day. Having a child may have added some family affection. Others, there is none. But he reminded himself again and again. He seems to care about her? "Madam, the young master said that he won''t be back for dinner at noon, so you don''t have to wait for her." Qin Qi''s voice reminded outside. Song Jin answered at the door, "Oh, I got it." Qin Qi''s words brought her back to reality. Song Jin found a sewing basket in the dormitory, and found a piece of soft cloth, and started cutting it to make a sachet for Qin Chi. Her embroidery skills were good, but in order to save time, she did not embroider too much. Something too complicated. Just embroidered a piece of bamboo. A very simple and elegant sachet. Then he stuffed the sachet with soothing herbs. Looking left and right, she was very satisfied with the new sachet. Put the sachet in the cabinet. Song Jin finally stepped out of the room. A clerk came from Jifang Pharmacy and said that Song Jin bought the medicinal materials in the shop and he would deliver them to his door. Song Jin knew there was something urgent as soon as he heard this. When the clerk saw Song Jin, he handed him a medicine bag. When avoiding people, there is also a secret letter. When he opened the letter, Song Jin was furious. He slapped the table and cursed: "It''s so unreasonable! It''s too much to bully someone!" "Madam?" Qin Qi was stunned. She rarely saw Song Jin angry. Once she gets angry, it''s going to be big. Chapter 251 dispel rumors Chapter 251 Breaking the Rumors "Madam?" Qin Qi called tentatively. Song Jin returned to her senses and knew that she was worried about him, so she explained the reason: "Yesterday, the Yuan family''s gift-giving was publicized by some people outside. Some people deliberately slandered my husband''s reputation." "Then what should we do now? These people have no good intentions." Qin Qi was very angry after hearing this. It''s really abominable to make something out of nothing. Song Jin read the letter and was even more angry than Qin Qi. Some people said that Qin Chi wanted to cling to the powerful, but the Yuan family was not happy, so he made up lies to threaten the Yuan family, and said that the Yuan family had no choice but to send heavy gifts. Unexpectedly, Qin Chi deliberately used Qiao to show that he was not afraid of power, saying that Qin Chi was just trying to gain fame and so on. These rumors will push Qin Chi to the forefront. Song Jin hurried to see shopkeeper Tao. Shopkeeper Tao also knew the rumors. The two hurriedly went outside to check. Two people were caught spreading rumors. After interrogation, they only said that someone paid them to say so. They didn''t know who the person behind the scenes was. "The rumors have just started and are only spreading in a small area. They must be stopped in time." Qin Chi has just finished the entrance examination. I don''t know how many people are watching. Song Jin would not let Qin Chi''s reputation be tarnished, "Have you informed the young master about this?" "Young master went to Zuixian Tower." Shopkeeper Tao was depressed and was meeting Mr. Yang Ge. Song Jin said: "Is there someone in Zuixian Tower who is also spreading rumors?" "There are probably some in the lobby," Shopkeeper Tao said. "Since someone has spread the news, we will also spread the news and tell the story about the inn. The local government will also know about this matter, so the credibility is higher. If we didn''t tell it originally, the matter would spread to the capital sooner or later. The Yuan family thinks It cant be suppressed. "Okay, my subordinate will do it now." The rumor was stopped in time before it spread completely. Song Jin and Shopkeeper Tao discussed how to solve the problem. As a result, in various teahouses and restaurants, some people deliberately distorted the incident between Qin Chi and the Yuan family and poured dirty water on Qin Chi''s head. Others immediately stood up to refute the rumors. Song Jin and Shopkeeper Tao came to Piaoxiang Tower. There is not only this restaurant on the street of Piaoxianglou. Zuixian Tower is also here. This is also the reason why Song Jin came here. At this time, the lobby of Piaoxiang Building. A man sat at the table, drank a few glasses of wine, and began to deliberately talk about Qin Chi''s rejection of the Yuan family yesterday, "I heard that this Qin Qi''an became famous before the exam. Others said he was accurate. The top pick. This young man is crazy if he is famous. "Brother is right! Even Shangshu Mansion doesn''t take it seriously." "The Yuan family also has a good temper. It would be me who would torture him to death." Several people at the table pretended to be chatting, but they were chatting very loudly. Everyone in the lobby heard it. Then the people at the next table who had just arrived laughed. A young man among them sneered, "A bunch of rough guys, short-sighted, spread rumors just by talking about us, and think we are all fools. How difficult it is for a poor person to pass the imperial examination. If he hadn''t been forced to a dead end, who would be here?" This is not the way to confront Shangshufu and destroy your future." "What did you say?" Someone was booing next to him. Another person said: "What you said makes sense, even I won''t have **** with the dignified minister." "Go away, you''re a gas seller, stop embellishing yourself here." Someone on the side laughed and scolded. The young man said mysteriously: "On my way to the capital, I happened to hear something happened on the night of the fourth day of February." "What''s going on?" Everyone else pricked up their ears to listen. The young man added: "Qin Qi''an took his family to Beijing to take the exam. When it got dark, he stopped at the inn. That night, a thief drugged the water tank in the kitchen. One of the people caught was from the Yuan family. Manager, Yi Cheng went to the Yamen to report to the officials that night. Guess what happened next? " "What''s wrong?" Everyone was fascinated by it and it was very appetizing. Someone questioned: "This matter cannot be justified. Why did the Yuan family attack Qin Qian?" "Hey, you didn''t know that." The young man talked eloquently, "Who is this Qin Qi''an? He graduated from the Imperial College in two years. He has a natural appearance. Doesn''t he just make people jealous? I went back to take the provincial examination last year. I heard that he got into trouble many times, and he almost missed it. Not saved." "Is there anyone who can''t tolerate him?" "No, no, I guess someone thought he was in the way." "Young man, didn''t you tell any rumors?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! An older man asked with squinted eyes. The young man raised his hand and swore, "I promise I''m not lying. If you don''t believe me, go check it out. I''m not the only one who knows these things. Many people in the local area know it. Does the third young master of the Yang family know? He also stayed at the inn that day. If you don''t believe it, You can ask him." "Wow wow wow, is there anything else going on with Third Young Master Yang here?" "Hey, he can be considered a person involved. I also have news, which is even more outrageous." So the young man told Yuan Shipeng that he had written a letter back to Beijing and told his mother to stop Qin Qian''s scientific examination. There is no evidence for this. However, there was testimony from the Yuan family manager that the Yamen should have a criminal record. I dont know if its still there now. After all, the Yuan family is so powerful that its not difficult to wipe out some of them. This incident spread from the restaurant. How it develops is beyond human control. In fact, these rumors about Qin Chi. Smart people will know that it is untrustworthy as soon as they hear it, but there are many people in the world who can''t stand it. The wind is the wind and the rain is the rain. If this were not the case, Song Jin would not have to pay attention. Something about the lobby of Piaoxiang Building. It happens in every teahouse and restaurant. However, the rhetoric will change. For example, rumor-breakers will quote someone from Piaoxianglou. The main point is to tell the truth, withstand investigation, and the government can testify, etc. If someone wants to know whether it is true or false, he can find out by checking. A wing in the backyard of Zuixian Tower. Mr. Yang Ge and Qin Chi sat opposite each other. There is a tea table in the middle. There is a pot of tea and some snacks on it. However, the two of them were sitting here not to drink tea or eat, but to chat about the Yuan family. At this time, Qin Chi looked serious. He thought this might be the Hongmen Banquet. I didnt expect that it wasnt Hongmen Banquet, but it couldnt be farther from it. Yang Gelao made a request, asking him to sue Yuan Shangshu on the day of the palace interview, and he would provide the evidence. Yang Ge said: "There are still some days before the palace examination. You can think about it for a few days. There is no need to answer in a hurry." "If I accept the offer today, if it is revealed, my life will not be saved. How can I even talk about the imperial examination?" Qin Chi answered with a hint of bitterness. He played a powerless and humble student with great charisma. "Heaven knows this and earth knows it. You know it and I know it." Mr. Yang Ge said that only two people knew about this matter. There will be no possibility of leakage. Because he didn''t even tell his family about this matter. In the end, before Qin Chi left, it seemed that he agreed to the matter after some struggle. Chapter 252 Looks worthless Chapter 252 Looks worthless Just stepped out of the lobby from the backyard of Zuixian Tower. I happened to hear a student say loudly: "Qin Qi''an is a scum among scholars. Letting someone like him become an official in the court is also a corrupt official." "What nonsense are you talking about? There''s still no explanation for this matter." A classmate on the side grabbed him. The student sneered, "The rumors about how powerful he is are all exaggerated in my opinion. Maybe it''s him who is building momentum, so you just believe it as truth." "You''re smart and we''re all stupid, okay?" A person at the table stood up angrily, "Without any evidence, just a few rumors to slander a classmate. If he becomes an official in the future, he will be a corrupt official, then who do you think he is? I don''t know if you will be the one to judge the case in the future." How many unjust cases will there be? I am ashamed to be associated with you! After leaving these words, the man left angrily. Qin Chi was stunned by this. Are there any rumors about him out there? He glanced at the person who had just spoken for him and felt that this student had good judgment. However, he was soon slapped in the face. Someone at the same table suddenly stood up and said, "No, Brother Zhuge said that he is here to treat us today." Who will pay the bill if I get **** off? The people around were stunned. Qin Chi stood there a little speechless. At this moment, there was a person dressed as a vendor at the adjacent table. He said cheerfully: "By the way, maybe you don''t know, but I heard another version of this matter." "What do you mean?" a curious person asked. "Some people say that the Yuan family and Qin Qian have a deep grudge." The vendor poured himself a glass of wine. After finishing it, he said with regret, "This wine from Zuixianlou is delicious, but it doesn''t have much in a pot." I drank it all in one mouthful. There was a table not far away. He looked at the well-dressed middle-aged man and said to the servant next to him: "Go and talk to the waiter and give the big brother a bottle of wine. Think of it as my invitation to him." The servant immediately went to find the waiter. Soon a jug of wine was placed for the vendor. As if satisfied, the vendor thanked him and continued: "This matter started when Qin Qi''an was in the Imperial College. People who are too outstanding will inevitably suffer from pink eye. Yuan Shipeng was expelled from the Yuan family. I heard that he is one of them. He made trouble for Qin Qian in the Imperial College, I dont know whether its true or not. "This is true, I''ve heard about it too." A student on the side responded. "Before the provincial examination, Qin Qi''an was unlucky and had to be in the same period as Yuan Shipeng. During that time, Qin Qi''an was either encountered by bandits or disappeared. He also fell seriously ill before the examination. Go to his hometown to inquire about this matter, and you will be able to find out. "Ouch, big brother, tell me the key points." Said an impatient person. The vendor glanced at the man and said, "Why are you so anxious? This is to set the stage." "Aren''t you cheating to drink?" Someone looked at the wine on his table with envy. The vendor covered his wine bottle and said, "OK, OK, OK, I heard that Yuan Shipeng was having a hard time. Before being exiled, he had to write a letter back to Beijing and ask his mother, Mrs. Yuan Da, to teach Qin Qian a lesson. Qin Qian attended the meeting Before the test, there were several accidents. "Oh my God, this hatred is so great." "Destroying a person''s future is like killing his parents." "Really? Hey, I remember that on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, a mad cow appeared on the street and almost hit a carriage. It couldn''t be Qin Qian''s, right?" A person in the corner suddenly said. "No way. Is there still such a thing?" "The Yuan family is really lawless!" "It''s been so long since I came to apologize. No wonder Qin Qi''an refused. I wouldn''t have accepted it." One student said indignantly. The student who just slandered Qin Chi''s face turned blue and purple, as ugly as he could be. It seemed that everyone was looking at him in the wrong way! Qin Chi turned around and walked towards the backyard. This time he left Zuixian Tower, not through the front door, but through the back door in a low-key manner. He, Qin Qi''an, has not yet gone out to cause trouble for others. Trouble came to him again and again. It has always been difficult for students from poor families to get ahead, and it is not without reason. Since Qin Chi took part in the imperial examination, he may still have someone behind him and the ability to protect himself till now. If he was really just an ordinary student, an "accident" would happen as soon as he emerged. Standing at the back door for a while. Lao Litou drove over in a carriage, and when he was about to say something, Qin Chi stopped him, "We''ll talk about it when we get back if we have anything to do." "Yes, sir." Wait for Qin Chi to get on the carriage. Lao Litou immediately drove back. No words were spoken along the way. Back at the door, Qin Chi got out of the car with a calm and handsome face and entered the house without saying a word. I saw Old Man Hong following me. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi glanced at him and said, "Uncle Hong, there are rumors outside..." "The Yuan family arranged for people to do it, and some of them contributed to it, but it was done very covertly, and our people didn''t find out. The Yuan family should be afraid of you and want to cut off your official career." Old man Hong told the investigation. Finally, he added: "My wife felt that she could not let rumors slander the young master, so she made some arrangements." As soon as the rumors started, they were washed away by Song Jin and the grievances between Qin Chi and the Yuan family were made public. The Yuan family probably thought that the poor students didn''t have the guts to confront them openly, so they looked down upon him from the beginning. In fact, it is normal to have such thoughts. Qin Qi''an is very good at reading, and he is a quasi-number one scholar. In the eyes of ordinary people, he is really great, but in the eyes of the real powerful, let alone being a quasi-number one scholar, he will not take it seriously if he becomes the number one scholar. There is a champion every three years. The scenery is scenery, and that''s how it will be afterward. The last top pick is still sitting on the bench in the Hanlin Academy. As for the high-ranking officials in the imperial court, they were all talented students who had not taken the imperial examination. They had been working in the officialdom for decades before reaching their current status. How could a new top scholar be able to shake them? Before a person enters the officialdom, he will make a fuss in the city and give people a bad initial impression. Therefore, Qin Chi knows that before entering the officialdom, his reputation must not be bad. Song Jin''s way of dealing with it suited him very well. "Where''s Madam?" Qin Chi looked inside. Old Man Hong said: "Madam has gone out and has not come back yet. We need to send someone to inform her, have you returned home?" "Have someone tell her so that she won''t worry about me." When Qin Chi said this, the corners of his mouth raised slightly. He looked helpless against Song Jin. Old Man Hong''s eyes hurt a little, so he didn''t look over his shoulder to find someone to inform Song Jin. His little master is good at everything. Only when I mentioned my wife, she looked worthless. Fortunately, nothing bad has happened in these years, and my wife can be called a good wife, and she doesn''t cry or complain when things happen. Seeing Old Man Hong limping away, I felt very disgusted with him. Qin Chi smiled when he turned around. Song Jin, who was outside, received the news and immediately handed over the matter to shopkeeper Tao, and hurried home in a carriage. When he rushed back, he happened to see Qin Chi sitting on the drunkard''s chair, swaying comfortably. There are also fruits, tea and pastries beside it. This made Song Jin feel unbalanced. Chapter 253 Thanks to my wife Chapter 253 Thanks to my wife "My husband, my life is very leisurely." Song Jin had a smile on his face, but there was a bit of yin and yang in his voice. Qin Chi stood up and bowed deeply to Song Jin, "Thanks to having a wife, my husband can have half a day of leisure." Song Jin was slightly startled. Immediately she couldn''t help laughing and said: "When did you become so glib." "I am sincerely grateful. Madam, please don''t accuse me unjustly." Qin Chi poured a bowl of tea with a smile and gently pushed it in front of Song Jin. Song Jin took out a letter from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Qin Chi, "Letter from Yuan Shipeng." Qin Chi was surprised, "I had people sneak into Yuan Mansion to look for it, but they couldn''t find it. How did the lady get it?" "Bought with money." Song Jin said it in an understatement, but it certainly took a lot of effort, "When I first arrived in the capital, I asked someone to contact a servant of the Yuan family. That person is the son of Mrs. Yuan''s confidant..." The nanny followed Mrs. Yuan, doing many conscientious things, and she had long been prepared to die violently. As long as she stole a letter, she could get a large amount of money to settle her family. She readily agreed and used the money to redeem her family. The Yuan family learned about what Mrs. Yuan had done, and that grandma committed suicide that night. Qin Chi opened the letter and read it again. After reading it, he sneered: "Sure enough, people like Yuan Shipeng will blame their misfortunes on people who are better than him without any need for evidence." Song Jin nodded after hearing this. But why does this sound a bit weird? After stepping on Yuan Shipeng, why don''t you forget to praise yourself? Matters related to the Yuan family''s interception and killing of Qin Chi continued to ferment with the encouragement of the Yang family. If it was just Qin Chi, it was nothing, but the Yang family investigated again and found out that the student who was secretly plotted by Yuan Shipeng was not only Qin Chi. During the same period, several outstanding candidates missed the exam due to various accidents before the provincial examination, and one of them lost his life. Judging from the investigation, they are all closely related to Yuan Shipeng. This incident caused a great sensation among scholars, especially the poor students who had no power and were not even guaranteed their lives. If Yuan Shipeng hadn''t been exterminated by the Yuan family long ago, someone might come to the Yuan family to cause trouble. Even so, the Yuan family''s reputation was greatly damaged. Due to the fact that Yuan Shangshu was an official of the imperial court and the minister of the Ministry of Industry, there were very few people who dared to behave in front of him, but not none. For example, his political enemies had various connotations about him in the main hall. Yuan Shangshu returned to the mansion. When he met his eldest son in the study, he said coldly and angrily: "You said I would leave Qin Qi''an''s affairs to you. Let''s see what you have done. If you can''t even handle this matter well, what will happen to the Yuan family in the future?" Do I need to give it to you? The letter written by Shipeng was lost and has not been found yet! "Father, I..." Uncle Yuan lowered his head in frustration. In the past, his husband said that his talent was limited, and he was always unconvinced. He has worked hard these years, but he still hasn''t received a word of kindness from his father. The Yuan family has no successors. This is Yuan Shangshu''s heartache. Yuan Shipeng, the only somewhat clever grandson, was raised crooked by the wife at the back of the house. When I found out that I wanted to break up but couldn''t get it back. Uncle Yuan was not angry and said: "Father, it was the Yang family who interfered. He is responsible for the rumors outside. The most disgusting thing is that Yang Yingrong, who ruins the reputation of my Yuan family everywhere." "He is a merciless person, but even this person has never brought trouble to the Yang family. The son you raised is a good one. He has ruined the Yuan family''s century-old reputation." Yuan Shangshu has not seen Yuan Shipeng now. If someone were in front of him, they would probably be tempted to kill him. Yuan Shangshu decided: "Let that poisonous woman die of illness." "This, it''s hard for my father-in-law to explain this matter." His family was deeply entangled with his father-in-law''s family. Some secrets of the Yuan family are also known to the father-in-law. Yuan Shangshu said angrily: "When is it now? Do you think Yang Zhengkai will let us go? He is determined to break up, and the handle is still in his hands! Go and tell him clearly, that poisonous woman is In a situation of certain death, I cant even protect myself, and I dont have the ability to protect her. Uncle Yuan really wants to say, do you want you to go see his father-in-law? His father-in-law is a daughter slave. A few days ago, it was said that his wife was seriously ill. Originally, the Yuan family planned to let her die of illness, but the father-in-law came several times to save the life of the poisonous woman. Uncle Yuan told this matter. Yuan Shangshu hated that iron could not become steel, "Go and invite him over and say that I have something important to discuss. If we continue to waste time like this, it will be of no benefit to anyone." "Son, go right away." Uncle Yuan hurried out. The news that the uncle of the Yuan family went to invite the Yue family reached Song Jin soon. After Song Jin chatted with Qin Chi, "The Yang family is really cautious, and they never broke their bones in the fight with the Yuan family." Based on the previous charges, Yuan Shangshu could not be forced to step down. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! As the case continues to be investigated, it turns out that Mrs. Yuan was responsible for everything. Yuan Shipeng was kicked out of the family early again, and the Yuan family had every reason to sever the relationship. At best, Yuan Shangshu can be regarded as lax in running the family. Based on the emperor''s favor and trust now, he will probably be fined a few months'' salary, or spend some time in isolation at home. If you want to make the Yuan family miserable, you need to find other evidence, such as evidence involving Yuan Shangshu''s corruption and perversion of the law. Song Jin thought about it carefully. The thugs who intercepted and killed them in Zhulin had no evidence pointing to the Yuan family. Rumors were flying everywhere outside, but there was no mention of the ambush in the bamboo forest that day. Not even Yang Yingrong mentioned it to outsiders. Yang Yingrong has been particularly popular recently. Posts flew to him like snowflakes. I just asked him about the inn and asked him about the situation. With Yang Yingrong showing up to speak out personally, Qin Qi''an''s reputation is now so good that many people sympathize with him. Some students from various academies in the capital like to say, "I''m not Qin Qi''an, you don''t have to be jealous." Don''t say it yet, as soon as this sentence comes out. The jealous eyes plummeted. So what if it''s awesome? And he couldn''t compare to Qin Qi''an, who was intercepted and killed repeatedly because he was so outstanding. Sometimes people have all kinds of ideas. Precisely because Qin Qi''an was so good that he recruited people to kill him, people thought he was very powerful, and even folk legends about him existed. Anyway, he became a rare talent that is rare in a hundred years. His reputation grew steadily, and he became almost a household name. Song Jin knew that Qin Chi must have known what was going on outside for a long time, but Song Jin still couldn''t help but tell him every joke about him from time to time. Who told Qin Chi to thank guests behind closed doors. Others guessed that he wanted to retreat and was being oppressed. Only Song Jin knew that he was living a comfortable life every day. He is so leisurely and carefree that he makes people jealous. "Madam, I won''t read the rankings when they are released tomorrow." Qin Chi rocked on the drunkard''s chair with a glutinous rice cake in his mouth. Song Jin asked: "Do you have anything else to do?" What''s more important than looking at the rankings? Chapter 254 Association Chapter 254 Huiyuan Qin Chi took the last bite of pastry in his hand and picked up the porcelain bowl beside him, "It''s not appropriate for me to go." "What do you mean?" "I''m so good, but I''m worried that some unsighted people will catch my son-in-law." "Don''t put gold on your face. Who in the capital doesn''t know that my husband has a wife? Besides, it''s just a nice talk to catch a son-in-law. We have already contacted him in private. No one would really take someone home by force and take him home as a son-in-law. That is not a marriage." But to make enemies." "My lady knows so much." Qin Chi lay back down calmly. On the day when the results were released, Qin Chi really didn''t go out. In such troubled times, Song Jin also decided not to go out. Old Li Tou and the others were even more active than Qin Chi. They went to Shuntian Gongyuan early to look at the rankings. The streets and alleys were particularly lively today. There was a sea of ??people in front of the list. Lu Yanji and Qin Mingsong came here early and wanted to look for Qin Chi, but the real owner was not found. Instead, they met Lao Li Tou. After asking, they learned that Qin Chi was unwell and stayed at home to recuperate. Yes, whenever outsiders ask about Qin Chi. Lao Litou and the others told the public that Qin Chi was ill and was recuperating at home. It doesn''t matter what outsiders think. Rumors about Qin Chi and the Yuan family. After less than half a month, not many people mentioned it. Now that the rankings have been released, people are talking about him again. "Come out!" There was a noise, and the gate of Gongyuan opened. A group of officials stepped out. After the officials left, several soldiers protected the two guards and posted the list on the wall. Crowds of people surged towards the list. Although Lao Litou is old, he is still very flexible, and he jumped to the top of the list in a few moments. First sight comes first! Sure enough, his name is Qin Qi''an, his native place is Yi County, Huizhou. "I won! My young master won the Huiyuan!" Old Li Tou was very excited. blurted out in a moment. I regretted it when I said it. It was too high-profile and attracted a lot of looks from around me. Lao Litou quickly got into the crowd and left. Three hundred people were admitted to the examination this time. Lu Yanji searched for his name from beginning to end, and finally saw his name slightly behind the middle. He almost jumped up with excitement and couldn''t help crying with joy. On the contrary, it was Qin Mingsong. I read it from beginning to end, and then looked back from the back, but still couldn''t find his name. The whole person was in despair and was squeezed out by the crowd. There are many students like Qin Mingsong who have failed. There are many people with similar demeanor to him. Therefore he is unremarkable. Those scholars who shout excitedly are a lot of people hate them. At this time, Lao Li Tou had already forgotten about Lu Yanji and Qin Mingsong, and was rushing home to share the news with everyone. As soon as he arrived at the front door of his house, before he even stepped across the threshold, Old Li Tou shouted loudly: "Sir! You''ve won! You''ve won!" "It''s not unusual to shout loudly." Old man Hong sat on the stone pier in front of the courtyard gate, with a calm expression on his face, as if he had seen strong winds and waves. The corner of Lao Litou''s mouth twitched, "You know nothing! It''s Huiyuan! Leader, Huiyuan!" "I know it is, so what?" "Tsk, that doesn''t make sense to you. If the young master wins the Huiyuan Award, will the Sixth Yuan rank be far away? How many Sixth Yuan rank can be achieved in the imperial examinations over the past thousands of years? This is a matter of leaving a name in history. How old is it? Glory." Old Li Tou became more and more excited as he spoke. As long as the emperor is not stupid. The young master''s success as the number one scholar is a sure thing. During his time as emperor, it was also his achievement that he was awarded the title of Liu Yuan. When history books are recorded in the future, there will definitely be a trace of his emperor. It was at this point that Lao Li lost his temper, and he was not just a member of the club. Mr. Hong''s face always looked like a mountain without changing color. It''s unclear what he was thinking in his heart, but if you look carefully, it''s not difficult to find that the ends of his eyes are slightly moist. Old Li Tou didn''t pay attention and was running to the study to report the news. He doesn''t look old at all. The wind is blowing under your feet, and you are no slower than young people. Qin Chi and Song Jin had long heard what Old Li Tou said outside. Song Jin looked at Qin Chi with a calm face and felt strange in his heart. "Aren''t you happy that you won the ranking?" Song Jin couldn''t help but ask. Qin Chi chuckled, "I''m happy." "Didn''t see it." "Madam, I''m really happy, but it''s not obvious." Qin Chi was very happy in his heart, but he had to remind himself that people should be calmer when they are proud. Song Jin took out a bamboo-embroidered sachet from his sleeve pocket. When handing it to Qin Chi, Song Jin said, "This is a congratulatory gift." "After waiting for so many days, it''s finally here." Qin Chi took the sachet and smelled it again, and joked with a smile, "If you don''t give it to me, the scent of the soothing herbs in it will fade away." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin''s smile faltered slightly. It soon returned to normal. The sachet that had been embroidered a long time ago was originally meant to be given to him. Later I thought about it and kept it to this day, it has a different meaning. Seeing Qin Chi taking off the old sachet from her waist, carefully putting it away, and then putting the new one on her waist, Song Jin swallowed the words that made her gag. She doesn''t care much about embroidery. People also cherish it so much, and my conscience suddenly feels a little hard. Just at this time, Lao Litou came in and said excitedly: "Sir, you are on the list, you are Huiyuan!" "I know, thanks for your hard work, Uncle Li." Qin Chi replied with a smile, "When the Yamen comes to report the news later, I will have to trouble Uncle Li to prepare again." "Ha, I''m going to prepare firecrackers." Old Li Tou left happily. Song Jin looked at his back and said, "Uncle Li''s reaction is normal." "What about my wife? Your husband-in-law won the election, why can''t I see you excited?" Qin Chi hurriedly came to Song Jin and bent slightly towards her. Their faces were very close. Song Jin subconsciously held his breath. Otherwise, at such a close distance, your breath would hit the other person''s face. "Isn''t it natural for my husband to win the first place?" Song Jin looked back at Qin Chi seriously, "Actually, I''m happy for you, but it''s not obvious." "fraud!" Qin Chi straightened his back and said, "Learn to speak like me?" Let her go this time. Then Qin Chi took four square steps and walked out in high spirits. Song Jin smiled, then got up and walked outside, preparing a few red envelopes. After a while, the servant came to report the news, and then went to the kitchen to prepare a table of food and wine. I learned that Qin Chi had been hit. Both the master and the servants in the house were in full joy. Someone is peeking outside the door. Song Jin came out of the kitchen and saw, "Aunt Kang? What are you doing?" "Ouch, I heard Old Man Li yelling just now, your husband-in-law has been hit? Is it true?" Aunt Kang''s gossipy eyes were exactly the same as those of Little Liu. Song Jin smiled and nodded. Aunt Kang''s old face immediately turned into a smile, "Oh, wow, this is amazing! I''m a neighbor to an amazing big shot." He turned around and was anxious to gossip about this with someone. After walking a few steps, he paused, turned around and said happily: "I almost forgot, Madam Qin, congratulations!" After saying that, the person left in a hurry. Song Jin was left standing there with a funny look on his face. PS: Dear friends, please vote~ Chapter 255 Song Xiu’s obsession Chapter 255 Song Xius obsession Song Jin was about to turn around at the door. "Master!" Someone hurried over and shouted. Song Jin turned around and saw that it was the clerk from Jifang Pharmacy. The guy handed Song Jin a letter. Song Jin opened it and frowned immediately. This letter was sent from Huizhou, telling Song Jin that Song Xiu actually came to the capital with the caravan. "According to the time on the letter, it''s time for me to arrive in the capital." Song Jin was surprised, but not too surprised, that Song Xiu came to the capital. Get people to pay attention. Don''t let Song Xiu commit suicide and implicate yourself. Song Jin had no intention of paying attention to Song Xiu. There are some things that happen to happen that you just dont want to deal with. The official who announced the good news did not come. Instead, Song Xiu came carrying a baggage and the little maid Coral she bought. "Sister! It''s really hard to find someone here." Song Xiu Fengchen came over, walked into the hall, drank a large bowl of tea, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said happily: "I heard that the results will be released today. Fortunately, I caught up." Song Jin''s face was filled with joy when she saw Song Xiu. Thinking again that she came to see him specially, an idea suddenly came into his mind. Song Xiu couldn''t come to her on purpose, just to show off. In his previous life, Qin Mingsong was at his most prosperous. Song Xiu poured another bowl of tea. She held the bowl of tea and sipped it in small sips. Very polite and courteous. As long as she doesn''t go crazy, she still looks pretty cool. When she was almost done drinking, Song Xiu began to poke her head around, glancing outside from time to time, "Where is your sick rice seedling? Why didn''t you see it?" Song Jin did not answer her, but asked: "Is this how you come to the capital?" "Isn''t it okay to do it this way?" "I''m so lucky to have arrived here safely along the way." Song Jin had to say that he dared to go from Huizhou to the capital with only one maid and arrived here safely. The ignorant are fearless. Song Xiu said dissatisfied: "I asked you, but you haven''t answered me yet." "Ask me what my husband is doing?" Song Jin felt a little wary in her heart. There was no need to guess anymore. Song Xiu must have held it back when he asked Qin Chi, "Song Xiu, don''t talk nonsense in front of my husband again. Doctor Jing said that he is in good health." , it wont be a problem to live to seventy or eighty. Disbelief flashed in Song Xiu''s eyes. But this time I was smart and didn''t ask any more questions. "I''m hungry, sister, do you have anything to eat? It''s not a human life to eat and sleep in the open on this road." Song Xiu looked towards the kitchen. "I''ll give you some steamed buns later, and then I''ll send you to Qin Mingsong." Song Jin didn''t want Song Xiu to live at home. Song Xiu curled her lips, "Just steamed buns? Forget it, you live in such a small house, I know you have no money. I''m not telling you, that sick man is taking medicine and studying, so your dowry must have been spent. Its your fault. People live outside, and this is the capital. Song Xiu had calculated in his mind that he should have spent about the same amount of money over the years. Song Jin didn''t want to pay attention to her, "Don''t worry about it, just eat it and get out." "I came here specially just to see how you were doing. I was thinking about you along the way." Song Xiu said with a smile. Song Jin sneered coldly, but didn''t want to tell her. Wait for Song Xiu to perform on her own. After she finishes her performance, she will probably ask to find Qin Mingsong. The cook brought some food to the table. A plate of steamed buns, rice porridge, side dishes, etc. was enough for the master and servant Song Xiu. Song Xiu sat at the dining table. Huang Huan served her dinner, and Song Xiu looked like a young lady. Song Jin watched with twitching eyelids. The people eating on this side did not forget to talk to Song Jin: "Sister, I will not eat your meal for free. When my husband becomes a Jinshi and returns home in fine clothes, I will treat you to another good meal. I am not you, I promise I wont give you steamed buns and pickles. "Oh!" Song Jin sat aside and watched coldly. So Song Xiu showed off sentence after sentence. In her words, Qin Mingsong seemed to have won the Jinshi and became a high official. While talking, he looked at Song Jin and criticized her from time to time, "Sister, what are you wearing? You look like a street kid." He is dressed like a commoner and doesnt have any jewelry on his body, so he is not as rich as I am. After saying that, he deliberately exposed the gold bracelet on his wrist. There was also that pitiful look in his eyes, as if Song Jin was a pitiful little person who had been treated harshly. Song Jin felt calm and calm at the moment. Now she doesn''t know how Qin Mingsong did in the exam. After all, Lao Li went to see the results. As soon as he saw that Qin Chi got the first place, he was so excited that he forgot about the other things. But one thing is certain. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Lets not talk about whether Qin Mingsong can pass the exam, even if he does, his ranking will still be far inferior to Qin Chi! I really dont know where Song Xius current sense of superiority comes from? You came all the way here just to be in front of her? Song Jin didn''t know at all. The driving force behind Song Xiu''s coming here was to show off in front of Song Jin and let Song Jin see her beauty with his own eyes. This is Song Xiu''s lifelong obsession. Every time he thought of stepping on Song Jin''s feet and making her look up to him, Song Xiu''s heart surged and she was extremely excited. You must know that after the marriage change, she originally thought she could live a good life, but in the end, she was still not as good as Song Jin. Waited for so many years. What we are waiting for is Qin Mingsongs Jinshi! The corners of Song Xiu''s mouth kept rising, and her eyes were full of pride, "Sister, my good days are coming, you don''t have to envy me, really." "What''s there to be envious of? I''m envious that you don''t have a son and a half, or am I envious that you have to make trouble with the outside room all day long?" Song Jin''s words were poisonous, as if he was a killer. Song Xiu''s smile stiffened. As if Song Jin wasn''t disgusted enough, he continued: "Seeing you showing off, do you know what I''m thinking?" "What are you thinking about?" Song Xiu blurted out. Song Jin straightened his sleeves and lapel, sat upright on the chair, and said gently and generously: "The clown." "you-" This made Song Xiu very angry. In a fit of anger, he even put down his bowls and chopsticks and glared at Song Jin. When he saw that Song Jin''s expression remained unchanged and showed no shame, Song Xiu suddenly made up his mind and said with a giggle: "Sister, I know you are envious of me..." "Coming! Coming!" "The official is here!" Someone outside shouted excitedly. Then there was a burst of gongs and drums, followed by the sound of firecrackers. The man''s rough congratulations came, but it was the official messenger who announced the news that Qin Chi had won the first place in the examination. Before the palace examination, when others saw him again, they would respectfully address Qin Huiyuan. Qin Chi came out. Lao Li was setting off firecrackers. There were many people watching at the door, and servants were handing out candies and wedding money. As the wife of Huiyuan, Song Jin naturally went out to help and calmly accepted every congratulation from outsiders. Song Xiu stood at the door of the hall. He stared at everything in front of him in stunned silence, unable to regain consciousness for a long time. After that, he didn''t know what he was mumbling. Coral stood beside her with lowered eyebrows and could vaguely hear her saying "it''s not true", "none of this is true" and other words. Coral called Song Xiu several times in a low voice. Song Xiu was immersed in his own world, as if he was going crazy. Chapter 256 collapse Chapter 256 Collapse The official messenger who announced the good news was sent away. Lao Litou and others began to clean up the mess. Qin Chi and Song Jin walked back side by side. I happened to see Song Xiu''s dull look, and saw this familiar scene again after so many years. Not to mention, he was a bit friendly. A sister-in-law or aunt who has been convinced that he is a short-lived ghost since entering the Qin family? "Auntie, long time no see." Qin Chi waved his hand deliberately to say hello to Song Xiu in a friendly manner. "ah!" Song Xiu screamed inexplicably, then covered her head and shook her head wildly, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! How could a short-lived ghost pass the Huiyuan exam?! This is not true, this is not true..." Qin Chi''s sharp eyes narrowed slightly. This familiar situation happened again. Sure enough, people fainted after a while... Hualu, who was standing by, quickly went to help Song Xiu, but Song Jin desperately asked for help. Song Jin could only call her mother-in-law to help move the person to the chair in the hall, "My house is simple and doesn''t even have a guest room. I''ll make her sit in the hall first. Coral, right? Please touch your master''s door." She should wake up soon. If she doesnt, go get a basin of cold water and wipe her face. Song Jin is very familiar with this routine. It''s just that I was stunned. It''s not the first time. After a while. Huan Huang went to the kitchen to get a basin of water and wiped Song Xiu''s face. Song Xiu woke up quietly with a look of despair on her face and ignored everyone else''s screams. Song Jin wetted the cold water with a handkerchief, and then sprinkled it on Song Xiu''s face. His voice was like a gentle knife, "I don''t think I''m living a better life than you. There''s nothing I can do about it. I advise you to hurry up." Accept your fate. If you want to trample me under your feet, it will be impossible in this life and the next." Song Xiu''s face turned pale. Song Jin threw the handkerchief into the basin, gave her a mocking look, and turned to leave. Soon. Lao Li hitched up the carriage. Send Song Xiu''s master and servant to Qin Mingsong. Song Jin stood at the door and watched the carriage leave. When he turned around, he almost bumped into Qin Chi''s arms, "Why is my husband so close to me?" "My wife is thinking too much, and she is too obsessed with it." Qin Chi raised his hand to straighten the black hair on her forehead. Pull the person back into the house. Song Jin thought that Lao Li had sent the person there and would be back soon, but he didn''t see the person until late in the evening. Old Li had a strange look on his face. When I saw Song Jin, I hesitated to speak several times, and then I whispered to Old Man Hong for a long time. After dinner. Song Jin brought a cup of tea to Old Li Tou, "Uncle Li, don''t worry about me, just say what you have to say." Old Li Tou smiled and said: "I sent the person there, and he regained his energy on the way. He looked excited and wanted to see Qin Mingsong. But when he found the government school and learned that the person had failed, he seemed to have suffered something. It was so exciting that I vomited blood and fell into coma..." This picture is not difficult to imagine. Song Xiu left Song Jin. He comforted himself in the carriage. No matter what, Qin Mingsong still won the Jinshi, but the bigger blow came later. In this life, Qin Mingsong did not win the exam like in his previous life. Fate seemed to be playing a joke on Song Xiu. The biggest expectation since the marriage change was that Qin Mingsong would become a Jinshi and enter the court as an official. What now? Song Xiu''s heart was lost. Everything that he believed in collapsed. This was a huge blow. It was quite normal to vomit blood and fall into coma on the spot. Lao Litou had not left at that time, so he immediately loaded the person into the carriage and sent him to the hospital. Originally, Qin Mingsong wanted to send people to Song Jin. Old Li Tou told him firmly. The house is too small to fit in. It is suggested to find an inn near Fuxue for Song Xiu''s master and servant to stay. That''s why Old Li Tou came back late. "My wife will go visit her again tomorrow." Seeing Song Jin''s silent expression, Qin Chi said helplessly, "It''s best to think of a way to send her back to Huizhou. If she stays here in the capital, with her trouble-making temperament, there will be a lot of mess." He was worried that someone would threaten them with Song Xiu in the future. Song Jin nodded. The next morning. Qin Chi and Song Jin went to the inn together. Song Jin went in to visit Song Xiu with gifts. Seeing Song Xiu''s deeply shocked look, she didn''t want to say a word. After a long while, Song Jin said coldly: "Everyone''s path is unique. You think that by taking away a man, you can take away my life. It is simply ridiculous. Song Xiu, regardless of my past life or this life, I, Song Jin, Living a good life never depends on men. Hearing this, Song Xiu''s eyes moved. No matter if she listens or not. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin put down the gifts he brought and walked out of the guest room. It was Qin Chi and Qin Mingsong outside. The failure of the exam was a big blow to Qin Mingsong. He was no longer as high-spirited as before, and he looked very decadent. It was obvious that he had not recovered from the blow. It happened that Song Xiu came suddenly. The fuss made Qin Mingsong exhausted mentally and physically. The uncle and nephew did not speak, at least when Song Jin appeared, they were very silent. Qin Chi said with a smile: "Come out so soon?" "I''ve said everything that needs to be said." Song Jin walked towards Qin Chi in a gentle manner. Qin Chi stretched out his big, knuckled hands toward her. Song Jin naturally put her bare hand into his palm. When Qin Chi held her hand, Qin Mingsong''s eyes were dazed for a moment, as if this shouldn''t be like this. However, Qin Mingsong couldn''t grasp or fathom that mysterious and mysterious feeling. Qin Chi said to Qin Mingsong: "Uncle, if something happens here, please ask someone to send us a message. I will take my wife back first. Living in the capital is not easy. It is not as clean as Huizhou, and it is still a place where dragons and tigers are hidden." What does this mean? The people who should understand understood it. Qin Chi stopped as soon as he clicked. Qin Mingsong watched the two people leaving together quietly, his lips moved, but he didn''t say anything after all. Qin Mingsong understood what Qin Chi meant. I have been here for a while, and it is not easy for me as a foreigner to study in my hometown. There are always a few powerful children in the college who like to bully others and take pleasure in bullying students from poorer families... Inside the carriage of a carriage. Song Jin looked at the flickering car curtain and said, "My husband wants to persuade my uncle to return to Huizhou?" "The cultural atmosphere in Huizhou is rich, no worse than that here in the capital. I just want to remind you that how my uncle decides is not something I, a junior, can control." Qin Chi saw the change in Qin Mingsong. Before entering the place of fame and fortune, a utilitarian mind has already arisen. Qin Chi added: "The sacred scenery of Huangshan Mountain is famous all over the world and has always been a favorite place for literati. Compared with all the overt and secret struggles in the capital, the place in Huizhou is more pure." "You just seduced him." Song Jin exposed his little thoughts. What kind of hidden dragon and crouching tiger? This is a big cake for Qin Mingsong. Qin Chi refused to admit it, "It''s okay, madam, please don''t misrepresent my good intentions." However, his defense was useless, and Song Jin asked directly: "Do you think he will return to Huizhou?" "Half and half." Qin Chi hopes Qin Mingsong will return to Huizhou. The big reason was that he was able to bring Song Xiu back. PS: Keep asking for votes! ~~ Chapter 257 imperial examination Chapter 257 Palace Examination Before the palace examination comes. Gongsheng students also need to learn relevant etiquette, including visiting teachers to obtain guidance and advice, or participating in some tour activities to obtain the required letters of recommendation. More importantly, they need to review the political atmosphere. Simply put, it is the examiner''s impression or character of the Gongsheng students. Sophisticated. If his character is not up to standard, it will be difficult for him to become an official in the court. After finishing the related work, Qin Chi thanked the guests behind closed doors. Precisely because of his low profile, the rumors about him gradually subsided. Qin Mingsong came here once. I came to say goodbye to Qin Chi and Song Jin. After careful consideration, he decided to take Song Xiu back to Huizhou and come back in three years. Qin Chi was delighted to hear it. Being a considerate nephew for a while, he specially found a caravan for the two of them to travel with. Song Jin also bought some specialties from the capital, and asked Qin Mingsong to take them back to his grandparents in the name of Qin Chi, as a sign of filial piety. Qin Chi acquiesced to Song Jin''s approach. "My wife is more considerate." This reputation of filial piety cannot be lost. Song Jin didn''t buy it for Boss Qin and Mrs. Li. It was because every time the caravan of Shun''an Trading Company passed through Shuntian Mansion, Song Jin would prepare some gifts for the caravan to take back. Qin Mingsong asked Qin Mingsong to take the things he prepared this time back. He didn''t have much intention of being filial. The big reason was the world''s customs. If you want to be an official, you need a good reputation, which is also for outsiders to see. Before Song Xiu left Beijing. Song Jin had never seen her once. It is said that people became taciturn and even treated Qin Mingsong lukewarmly. The eve of the imperial examination. Song Jin already knew what Mr. Yang Ge wanted Qin Chi to do, and he couldn''t help but feel a little worried, "Ms. sir, do you really want to do this?" "I can''t resist in my current status." Qin Chi considered the actual situation. In addition, the Yuan family''s matter really needs to be settled. In the palace, he will serve as the Yang family''s gun. As everyone knows, he will never be clean. Then, the Yang family can never think of being alone. Qin Chi has always appeared in front of the public as a weakling. Song Jin asked again: "Is there any danger?" "Won''t." Qin Chi said firmly, "I was forced to resist, so I resisted once in front of the palace. What could be the big mistake?" Seeing this, Song Jin didn''t ask any more questions. Quietly helping Qin Chi prepare the necessities for the exam. Palace design is the highest level in the imperial examination. The examination room was located in the Baohe Hall of the palace and was presided over by the emperor himself. Song Jin had no chance to go in and take a look. The next day, she personally escorted Qin Chi into the palace. Standing outside the palace gate, she looked at the heavily guarded palace gate and the majestic palace wall. Like a giant beast that lifts the sky, it has swallowed countless lives. This is the awe from Song and Jin Dynasties. "Madam, do you want to go back?" Qin Qi asked in a low voice. Song Jin said: "Go back." There were people around looking at Song Jin. Qin Qi used his body to block the sight of outsiders without leaving a trace, and protected Song Jin as he boarded the carriage. After entering the car, he also blocked the view from outside. After returning home, Song Jin never left home. While Qin Chi was attending the imperial examination, Song Jin changed into men''s clothes and went to Jifang Pharmacy. In addition, he went to the dock to meet Xing Lun and others. It was Jifang''s fleet that arrived at the water transport dock in Zhangjiawan. The batch of goods imported from Fuzhou before. After passing through many places, we finally arrived at the capital. "Master." Xing Lun got off the boat to greet him. Song Jin smiled and said, "If you have anything to say, let''s get on the boat first." Xing Lun and others stepped aside to get out of the way, and Song Jin took the lead in passing them and stepping into the cargo ship. When people talk in the cabin, they are not afraid of being heard by outsiders. Song Jin looked around, "Don''t you see Zhou Wei?" "His mother took her to get married in Huizhou." After saying this, Xing Lun laughed out loud. Song Jin was surprised, "Under custody?" "Yes, he always said that you can''t have a family without a career, so Aunt Ling chased him across the street with a spatula." Xing Lun told Song Jin some things that happened in Huizhou. Song Jin couldn''t help laughing. In fact, you are not young now if you think about it. Zhou Wei should have gotten married a long time ago, but in order to follow her on errands, he couldn''t get away, so it was delayed until now. Jin Ling wants Zhou Wei to go see her no matter what this time. Song Jin then looked at Xing Lun, whose smile was still pure, "Alun, it''s time for you to get married." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! At this time in his previous life, he had already been married twice. In this life, he has avoided those unreliable marriages, but he has been delaying getting married. Song Jin suspected that he had offended Yue Lao. Either give him an unreliable red line; or give him nothing at all? Xing Lun smiled lightly and said sheepishly: "My parents never urged me to get married. Ah Wei is not like me. I have an eldest brother to carry on the family line, so there is less pressure. Besides, I have been doing business outside for many years, so I am not in trouble. A girl from a good family. Song Jin couldn''t accept these words. Song Jin''s business outside Huizhou was taken over by Xing Lun. Even busier than Song Jin in a year. "Don''t think too much, Master. It''s because I have no intention of getting married for the time being. If I meet a girl I like in the future, I won''t miss it without the urging of my elders." Xing Lun said with a calm smile. Now that he has said so, Song Jin can''t bring it up again. Xing Lun took out his account book and talked about business matters. Finally, he said: "Shun''an Trading Company has a batch of goods here. Someone from them will come to hand over it later." "You go ahead, I''ll look at the ledger first." Song Jin signaled Xing Lun to go ahead and get busy. After Xing Lun retired, Song Jin got down to business. She was halfway through watching when she heard noises coming from outside. She stood up and walked out of the cabin, and saw the steward of Shun''an Trading Company in the capital, who was bringing people and carriages to move goods. The cargo of Shun''an Trading Company alone occupies two cargo ships. As for how busy it is outside. Because some merchants were squatting at the dock, waiting for the caravan to ship goods. When they saw the stewards of Shun''an moving goods, they naturally came around to inquire. After a while. Xing Lun came over wiping his sweat, "The handover is finally over." "Drink some tea and take it slow." Song Jin motioned to Xing Lun to pour himself some tea. Xing Lun was not polite and poured himself a full tea bowl. He drank it all and poured another bowl. "Are the goods on the owner''s ship going to be shipped out? Several families on the shore are asking." "Those who promised to come to pick up the goods last year, did they come?" Song Jin asked. Xing Lundao: "I''ve sent someone to notify you." Is this because no one has come yet? Song Jin thought about the recent martial law in the city due to the imperial examination, and thought it was understandable, "Wait for them for two more days. If they don''t come after two days, they will sell it to other people." "There is a lot of food this time, so they may not be able to eat it." Xing Lun was thinking about whether to open a shop of his own. He proposed the idea, but Song Jin rejected it. He said a little unwillingly, "Are we really not going to open it? We can make more money by opening our own shop." "There is no end of money in the world." Song Jin knows that you can''t be greedy in business. "You also need to master a certain standard so that you can continue this profitable business for a long time. If it gets in the eyes of some powerful people, our good days will come to an end." "Thank you, boss, for reminding me." Xing Lun thanked him with lingering fear. Chapter 258 The Liu family came to buy medicinal materials Chapter 258 The Liu family comes to buy medicinal materials When Song Jin was checking the accounts. Merchants from Shuntian Mansion came one after another to pick up goods, and Xing Lun went out to meet them in person. "Brother Xing, can you give me credit?" A steward asked shamelessly. Xing Lun smiled and shook his head, "Our boss''s rule is that no credit is allowed. Boss Feng, please be considerate. This is a small business. If we take credit, how can we use it to replenish our business?" "I want to get more goods, but I don''t have that much cash at the moment." "Get as much goods as you have." Xing Lun refused to let go. Seeing Xing Lun''s attitude, other merchants who were ready to make a move also stopped thinking. Some local businessmen have joined forces to lower the prices of some foreign caravans. This was the case when Song Jin and the others went on a business trip last year. As a result, Song Jin would rather spend more money and contact the merchants again instead of selling to those merchants. Businessmen who want to plot against them. Those people can''t eat it. Song Jin sold them all to Shun''an Trading Company at a shipping price that was 10% lower. Love or not. These goods are all foreign goods. It is a hot commodity in Shuntianfu, so there is no need to worry about not being able to sell it. It''s just like doing business. If you take one step back, they will ask you to take a second step back. I''m afraid it won''t be over in the future. Before dark. Qin Qi asked Song Jin if he wanted to return to the city. Song Jin shook his head and stayed on the boat. Now Qin Chi is taking the palace examination. Although the official examination is one day, it takes several days for the Gongsheng students to go through the process from entering the palace to leaving the palace, where the rankings are determined and the results are announced. It is not possible to complete all the procedures in one day. There was plenty of time left for Song Jin. It won''t be too late for her to return to the capital after she has finished handling the cargo on the ship. Two more days passed. The cargo on the ship has almost been shipped out, leaving only two cabins of medicinal materials. Xing Lun said: "It''s hard to get medicinal materials from Shuntian Mansion." The reason is that this is the capital. Every year, medicinal materials from various places enter the capital through various channels. The imperial court had certain standards for quality control of medicinal materials, so the inspection of medicinal materials flowing into the imperial city was particularly strict. It has been checked locally and will be checked again when arriving in the capital. Song Jin was not afraid of inspections, but was afraid of trouble. Whether it''s good or bad has to be decided by the person who inspected it, and it costs a lot of money. Song Jin flipped through the ledger about the medicinal materials and said, "This batch of medicinal materials is no longer available. Contact the local pharmacist and exchange them for a batch of local medicinal materials." I relied on this trick last year. Opened up some medicinal materials market in Shuntian Prefecture. There were two shipments of medicinal materials when we arrived, and three shipments of medicinal materials when we left. If you resell it somewhere else, you can make another fortune. After Xing Lun heard about it, he immediately followed the instructions. Some more drug dealers arrived one after another. "Hey, Mr. Liu, what kind of wind has brought you here?" Xing Lun led people to greet him. At this time, a woman said loudly: "I heard that the medicinal materials here are good, so I came here to take a look." Song Jin heard it instantly. This is Liu Jianfangs voice! Hearing this voice again after three years still made Song Jin feel dazed. Xing Lun said neither humble nor arrogantly: "I wonder where did you hear this?" "There is a medical clinic of the Liu family in the capital." Liu Jianfang''s source of information was the medical clinic, and she later contacted a drug dealer who was familiar with the Liu family to find this place. Most of the Liu family members practice medicine. It can barely be called a medically aristocratic family, with at least three generations of people practicing medicine. However, no matter how good the medical skill is, it must be assisted by good medicinal materials. Without good medicine, no matter how good the medical skill is, it will be in vain. Knowing that there are good medicinal materials, the Liu family came here after hearing the news. Liu Jianfang added: "I''m not here to replenish the herbal medicine library this time, but our Liu family needs a batch of medicinal materials." "This is a list of medicinal materials. Sir, you can look at it first and point out what medicinal materials are needed. I will ask someone to move it to the warehouse." Xing Lun immediately handed a thick booklet to Liu Jianfang. It has a list of names of medicinal materials written on it, and the shipping price is also marked at the back. Before Liu Jianfang looked at it and said nothing, the steward who followed her frowned and said, "The price is too high." "It''s way too high." Another steward also said, "Shopkeeper Xing is dishonest." "Then you have wronged me." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Xing Lun came directly to complain, but with a gentle and polite smile on his face, "Clearly marked prices and unified prices are the rules of our fleet. You should have asked before coming here, I''d better introduce you to the person who came here, I didn''t say clear?" When he said this, Xing Lun looked at a pharmacist next to him. The drug dealer wiped his sweat and said, "I forgot to mention this. The purchase price for small ones is also the same." Xing Lun and the others never lower their prices. They don''t have to worry about anything they can''t sell, as they have Shun''an Trading Company and the Song family''s side branches to take care of it. The drug dealer had actually told the Liu family a long time ago, but the Liu family didn''t listen at all. They always thought that the Liu family was special. After all, how many businessmen who came to the capital to do medicinal materials business didn''t give the Liu family face? Liu Jiaruo said that the other party''s medicinal materials were not good. It''s really not easy to sell in this area. Judging from this situation, the Jifang Caravan Corps did not buy into the Liu family''s account. The price list given was still the same, and no special treatment was given. "I want to see the medicinal materials first." Liu Jianfang spoke. The price, of course, depends on the medicinal materials. Xing Lun immediately asked people to move out some of the medicinal materials Liu Jianfang pointed out one by one. After the inspection, Liu Jianfang found that the medicinal materials were indeed slightly better than those on the market, but the efficacy of the medicine would only be known by a doctor after using it. But it cannot be denied. These medicinal materials are the best quality Liu Jianfang has seen this year. It was so good that she wanted to put it in the herbal medicine library. When these medicinal materials enter the herbal medicine warehouse, they may be rewarded. However, the medicinal materials that want to enter the herbal medicine warehouse must have clear origins and strict inspections. The most important thing is that the price given by the Crude Medicine Library is not high. If you want to accept it, you might have to use your power to overwhelm others? Liu Jianfang has not spoken yet. The steward who followed her had already discussed the price with Xing Lun. And the price was kept very low, which made Xing Lun very embarrassed. "Mr. Liu, you work in the herbal medicine warehouse and you should know the price of these medicinal materials best. The price you give us is a completely loss-making business, let alone making us money." "Tsk! Do you think we don''t understand the price?" Liu Jianfang didn''t say anything, but a steward of the Liu family next to her spoke up with a very arrogant attitude, "This medicinal material is available locally, and the price is more than enough." Xing Lun said in a good temper: "You also said it was local." When he said this, Xing Lun''s smile remained unchanged, but the smile in his eyes became much lighter. Its not that the Liu family doesnt understand the truth. Its just that everyone wants to buy good things at low prices. The Liu family has always been the target of drug dealers. If there is any good medicine, the Liu family is the first to come to mind. Therefore, the manager of the Liu family took it for granted that Xing Lun would do the same. As for Xing Lun, he didn''t send someone to the Liu family to tell him. The Liu family just thought that he was a newcomer and didn''t understand the rules for a while. PS: Please vote at the end of the month~ Chapter 259 Forced buying and selling Chapter 259 Forced Buying and Selling "Mr. Liu, I''m very sorry, we don''t do loss-making business." Xing Lun''s tone was natural and without awe. He looked very confident. This made Liu Jianfang unsure of the other party''s origin. The steward next to her had a dark face, "Are you trying to get into trouble with the Liu family? As long as we spread the word, you won''t be able to sell any of this batch of medicinal materials." "The Liu family wants to buy and sell by force?" Xing Lun was still good-tempered, with a smile on his face. People who lose their temper easily are sometimes easier to deal with. The most difficult for people to figure out are those whose emotions and anger are invisible. Xing Lun didn''t flinch at all, "I''ve been traveling all over the country and I haven''t seen anyone in the past. Everyone is a businessman and there is no justice. When I came to the capital, this was the first time I encountered someone so arrogant as the Liu family. Last time, those people just dared to Just join forces to lower the price. Xing Lun looked at the Liu family members as if they were looking at something strange, making Liu Jianfang feel embarrassed. "Shopkeeper Xing misunderstood, we have no intention of buying or selling by force." Liu Jianfang knew that if he didn''t express his position, he would be enmity. The steward next to me still wanted to talk. Liu Jianfang looked at her with a sharp look, and then she didn''t dare to say anything. "Our Liu family are not bandits." Liu Jianfang took the initiative to take a step back. Xing Lun pretended to smile profoundly, then followed the trend and said: "Everywhere, it is said that doctors have a parent-like heart, and they will not do anything to take advantage of them by force. I probably misunderstood just now, and I am here to apologize to you all." "Shopkeeper Xing is serious." Liu Jianfang and others looked unnatural. But the explosive posture just now was gone now. Both sides offered ladders and both took them. Xing Lun said again: "The prices we set have always been honest. Mr. Liu, ask yourself, is it really expensive? How much investment is required to transport them from the place of origin to the capital, and how many checkpoints have to be passed. I think you must Its clear in my heart. The person in charge of the herbal medicine library has to count so many medicinal materials every year. How could it not be clear? The increased price is also helpless. The expenses on the road are also taken into account. If you really calculate it according to the price in the country of origin, you will lose even your pants. After listening to the whole story, Song Jin''s lips curled up slightly. It seems that they have enough confidence to confront the Liu family so fiercely, but in fact they really don''t have any strong backing. However, when I go out, I provide the backstage by myself. As long as you are confident enough. Others will not dare to touch you easily. The biggest official of the Liu family is also the fifth-rank official Liu Yuanshi. There are many dignitaries with higher status than him in the capital. The only thing that makes people fearful is the connections the Liu family has made. There are also many dignitaries who are hindered by the Liu family''s medical skills. I''m just happy to give the Liu family some face. Song Jin didn''t listen anymore and continued to check the ledger. The beads on the abacus clicked loudly. The Liu family outside had no choice but to agree to buy some medicinal materials. Its just that the quantity was reduced by half from what I originally wanted to buy. Xing Lun asked the workers to carry out the medicinal materials, "For the sake of Mr. Liu, I decided to give you ten kilograms of medicinal materials. I take it as a token of my heart, Xing." This can be regarded as a different kind of selling well. Ten kilograms of medicinal materials is not too little, but it is not too much either. This approach made the Liu family feel better, and at least they could save their face. Seeing that the Liu family was not paying attention, the pharmacist who followed came up to Xing Lun and whispered: "Why didn''t I see you give me a couple of medicinal materials? It''s not okay to favor one thing over another. I introduced the customer to you this time, and you will also want it next time." Give me ten pounds of medicinal materials. Okay, next time we trade, Ill give you a pound. Xing Lun gave a pound of medicinal materials with the power of a hundred pounds. This made the drug dealer laugh angrily, "Can you be more stingy? Others weigh ten pounds, but I only have one pound?" "Can you compete with Mr. Liu? These ten pounds are a personal gift from me, and the money will be deducted from my salary." Xing Lun looked like he didn''t want to talk to him, and the pain on his face was very obscure, " You know the rules set by our boss. It''s not too obvious, but it''s noticeable. This seems more real. As expected, the drug dealer didn''t hesitate anymore, "Can this still happen? Your caravan is quite good." Xing Lun actually didn''t give preferential treatment to the Liu family. The drug dealer actually felt relieved. He gave Xing Lun a thumbs-up secretly and whispered: "I admire you, Brother Xing. You know, there are not many people who come to the capital to do medicinal materials business who don''t fawn over the Liu family. First, the Liu family is a big customer, and secondly, the Liu family plays a very important role in the medical industry. When I opened the line in Beijing, I gave the Liu family a lot of good things..." I can''t say it anymore. The more I say it, the more bitter it becomes. People cannot be compared with others. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Xing Lun patted his shoulder comfortingly, "I also have a batch of prepared salvia here, do you want it?" "Yes!" The drug dealer''s eyes lit up. Immediately, he whispered again: "I''ll come back tomorrow to pick up the goods." Xing Lun avoided the Liu family''s eyes and nodded. The Liu family was currently testing medicinal materials and were not distracted by the two Xing Lun who were supposed to be standing by. They did not know that in this short period of time, the two of them chatted and concluded a business. Wait for the Liu family to be sent away. It was already dusk outside, and the wind on the river was whistling. Song Jin had not come out because Liu Jianfang was on the boat. Even the men''s clothing was still somewhat similar to the original. In order not to attract Liu Jianfang''s attention, he never showed up to be on the safe side. Xing Lun handed the list of purchases made by the Liu family to Song Jin for review, "I probably still think the medicinal materials are expensive. The Liu family bought many types, but not in large quantities." "I guess they''ll come again." Song Jin could tell from the attitudes of those people, "I am somewhat familiar with Liu Jianfang. She usually acts fairly and is a face-conscious person. It''s hard to say about the rest of the Liu family." I bought too much of this cheap medicinal material. Having been spoiled by foreign drug dealers, it is surprising that the Liu family can purchase goods at this price. Xing Lun also knew this, and said with a slightly solemn expression: "I know that the Liu family''s business is not easy to do, so I only informed the local drug dealer and never contacted the Liu family''s purchasing manager. Who knew that the Liu family had heard about us? If you have the medicinal materials in your hand, you will come to your door at the expense of your face. "They most likely came here after seeing the medicinal materials." Song Jin''s guess was correct. Liu Jianfang happened to see Song Jin''s medicinal materials. I contacted the previous drug dealer again. After wandering around, I found the water transport terminal. Xing Lun asked again: "The Liu family comes to visit us again, boss, what should we do?" "It''s still this price, do you want it or not?" Song Jin didn''t want to be taken advantage of by the Liu family. What''s more, Jifang''s medicinal materials never worry about being sold. If her father had wanted to expand his medicine business, the Song family would have been the biggest medicine company in the world. My father had been cautious all his life, but he still failed to protect the family. Chapter 260 Number one scholar Chapter 260 Number One Scholar Song Jin looked at the list of remaining medicinal materials and ordered: "Save some of the medicinal materials and send them to Jifang Pharmacy in the city." "My boss opened a pharmacy in the capital?" Xing Lun asked in surprise. Song Jin nodded, "I recently opened a small medicine shop, and Doctor Jing''s master and apprentice are usually in the hall. If Doctor Jing knows that we have good medicinal materials here, but we don''t leave a portion for him, I don''t know how to nag him." Hearing this, Xing Lun chuckled and said, "I''ll choose the best one for him to keep. Then let Xiaodong deliver it in person." "Okay, let''s arrange it as you said." Song Jin had no objection to this. Then he thought of the Liu family, who might make things difficult for Xing Lun. There was a coldness in Song Jin''s eyes, "If someone in the Liu family does something small, spread the word about what they did, and there is no need to sell the medicinal materials. Just leave Shun." Tianfu. Originally, the fleet was already pretty busy. Only the medicinal materials remain. However, Jifang never worries about medicinal materials, and Governor Wang still needs a batch. Xing Lun understood what Song Jin meant. It would be better if the Liu family didn''t come to cause trouble. Otherwise, the Liu family will be tricked even after the fleet leaves. Song Xiaodong called a carriage to carry the medicinal materials Song Jin needed. Song Jin had been out of the city for some time, and then left with the carriage carrying medicinal materials. When he left, he still had a stack of large banknotes in his arms. The banknote is half of the profit during this period. The other half is kept as working capital. Song Jin must need a lot of money if he wants to develop in the capital. Returning to the capital from the water transport terminal in Zhangjiawan, Song Xiaodong sent the medicinal materials to the pharmacy. Song Jin just took a look and took the carriage home. "Counting the time, the imperial examination should be over." I don''t know what the situation will be like when Qin Chi sues the Yuan family, but it''s a pity that he can''t see it with his own eyes. Song Jin opened a corner of the car curtain and secretly looked at the bustle on the street outside. Every once in a while, he could see soldiers patrolling by. Qin Qi sat on the shaft of the car outside. The driver is Qin Ba. The horse-drawn carriage did not move quickly through the streets. Song Jin was in the carriage and could still hear the people outside talking about the imperial examination. After the palace examination, there will be a series of ceremonies and activities, including giving banquets, expressing gratitude, paying homage to the ancestor Confucius in the temple, etc. These ceremonies are not only rewards for candidates, but also recognition and commendation for them. As long as Qin Chi performs normally, he will be in the top three. The top three will usually take office immediately, that is, they will be awarded the corresponding official positions by the emperor himself in the main hall. This is a great honor for scholars. When returning home. Seeing Old Man Hong''s steady face, Song Jin felt relieved. After living together for so long, Qin Chi has never introduced Old Man Hong''s identity to Song Jin, but who is Song Jin? Song Jin had long realized that Old Man Hong was not simple. Old Li Tou would often discuss things that happened at home that couldn''t be solved or needed to be solved. Old Man Hong was able to hold his own, which meant that Qin Chi in the palace was fine. Song Jinda stopped going out after returning home and had people waiting for news in front of the palace gate. None of the candidates showed up yet. The news that Qin Chi had won the first prize spread out from the palace like lightning. This number one scholar is not an ordinary number one scholar. But three yuan and six poems, six yuan and the third place! Looking at the entire imperial examination and counting the previous dynasties, there were only two candidates. This shows how rare Qin Chi is as the number one scholar. Almost the entire capital was in a sensation. "Ms. Qin, congratulations." Song Jin received his neighbors at home. Aunt Kang came to the door with several good sisters, each carrying gifts to congratulate Song Jin. The gift is not expensive, but it is a good intention. Aunt Kang pushed the person, "What''s your name, Mrs. Qin? From now on she will be the first lady." "Ha, yes, Madam Number One Scholar." The lady quickly changed her words. Song Jin asked his mother-in-law to bring stools to the ladies, and then served cakes and tea. He said modestly with a smile: "The ladies are so polite. This is just a rumor from outside. The list has not been released yet, so it cannot be done accurately." "Don''t be modest. This matter has been spread outside, and your house will be lively in a while." Aunt Kang said cheerfully. Several people said that they should never forget them in the future. You have to work hard to maintain this little bit of love, as you are a neighbor after all. Song Jin smiled and nodded. Fortunately, the neighbor was still sensible. He drank half a bowl of tea and left after only half a quarter of an hour. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Stayed at home for a while longer. When the list of the palace examination was posted, Song Jin was relieved, and Qin Chi was indeed the top one. Unexpectedly, until the afternoon, no one came out in front of the palace gate. Song Jin felt a little nervous when she thought about what Qin Chi was going to do, "Should I go and wait in front of the palace gate?" "It''s better not to go." Qin Qi stopped him. Song Jinxing raised his eyes and looked at Qin Qi, "Do you have something to say?" "The young master told you before taking the palace examination that you can just wait for the news at home. It''s not safe to be outside." Qin Qi gradually lowered his head as he spoke. Song Jin wanted to laugh after hearing this, "Isn''t it safe?" "Yes! I care about the young master but also my wife. I am worried that the Yuan family will jump over the wall and threaten him with you." Qin Qi explained a few words for Qin Chi. Song Jin did not mention going to the palace gate to treat people. Old Li Tou and Qin Ba went to pick them up in front of the palace gate. As a result, the first one to come out was a team of Jin Yiwei. Jin Yiwei went straight to Yuan''s house to catch someone. Song Jin quickly received the news. Now, in addition to being concerned about the situation in the palace, she was also paying attention to the Yuan family. The royal guards surrounded the Yuan family. There was no news about the situation inside for a while. Song Jin originally wanted to go out and watch the excitement. Thinking of Qin Chi''s special confession before entering the palace, she gave up the idea again, so she and Qin Qi started gossiping in the courtyard. "Did your husband sue the Yuan family when there was such a big commotion?" Song Jin asked knowingly. This question is not about Qin Qi. It was Old Man Hong who was sitting beside him in a daze. Old Man Hong glanced at Song Jin and said, "Madam, it should be." "Can you bring down the Yuan family?" Song Jin asked. "It depends on the evidence provided by the Yang family." Mr. Hong didn''t know what evidence Mr. Yang Ge provided to Qin Chi. He must have said that Mr. Yang would not make things easier for Yuan Shangshu. "Yuan Shangshu is a bit greedy, and many people know it." Song Jin looked at Old Man Hong with bright eyes. Obviously she didn''t say anything. Old Man Hong had a feeling that she was waiting for him to say more, "Even if there is no other evidence. The Yuan family''s interception and killing of the young master is already a certainty. There is also a sweep of the Yuan family, so the Jin Yiwei will naturally go there." It was a miss. When he mentioned that he had failed, Old Man Hong looked strange. The Yuan family was clever but was misled by their cleverness. During this period, the movements of the Yuan family were full of flaws in Jin Yiwei''s eyes. As long as Jin Yiwei has doubts, he will hold on to it until he digs out the truth. The last day, please vote~ Chapter 261 Someone is eyeing Song Jin Chapter 261 Someone is eyeing Song Jin Old Man Hong was a little surprised that the emperor actually asked Jin Yiwei to intervene instead of leaving it to Jingzhao Mansion or Dali Temple. Jinyiwei is an institution directly affiliated with the emperor. Only obey the emperor''s orders. The main functions include reconnaissance, arrest, interrogation, etc., and are also involved in tasks such as collecting military intelligence and instigating rebellion against enemy generals. Since the Jinyiwei directly obeyed the orders of the emperor himself, they had great power in the dynasty and were able to carry out their tasks unimpeded. There are positions such as commander, command colleague, and command officer. Basically, they are all the emperor''s cronies. They are equivalent to a knife in the emperor''s hand and a knife hanging over the heads of various officials in the court. Song Jin made people pay attention to the trends outside. Staring at the palace gate again. Song Jin was extremely depressed as he waited, "Didn''t you say that after the imperial examination, there will be a parade for the number one scholar?" "There may be a slight delay today." Qin Qi suspected that it might be related to the son''s lawsuit against Yuan Shangshu. After the imperial examination, the new champion will be required to parade around the streets to praise their officials, which is a traditional ceremony in the imperial examination system. Parading the streets to praise officials is also called "impraising officials on the streets". It is a ceremony when a scholar passes the imperial examination or when an official is promoted. After being selected by the imperial examination, the new champion will wear a red robe, a hat with palace flowers, and ride a high-headed horse to parade through the imperial streets of the imperial city to receive the congratulations of all the people. During the specific parade, the champion will ride a horse, with drums and ceremonial guards in front to clear the way, and guards behind him. The entire parade is full of majesty. Qin Qi saw that Song Jin still had no intention of going out, "Madam, aren''t you going to watch the young master parade on the street?" "Your young master asked me to wait for him at home." Song Jin didn''t know why Qin Chi arranged it like this. Qin Qi also didn''t know why, "I''m probably worried about my wife''s safety. There are a lot of people watching the No. 1 Scholar Parade every time, and it''s also a day with a high incidence of accidents. Children are either lost or trampled." At that time, it can be said to be a grand event that occurs once every three years in the capital. The streets will be crowded with people. Many officers and soldiers were dispatched to maintain order, and some excited girls were encountered. Various silk handkerchiefs, purses, sachets, etc. were thrown away. People were trying to pick up those things, causing chaos from time to time. "The last top pick passed by Zuixian Restaurant while parading. There was a **** the second floor who thought the handkerchief was too light to throw away, so she stuffed the jade pendant into her purse and threw it to the new top pick. Guess what? The top pick was hit with blood all over his head." Qin Qi carefully told Song Jin some of the things he heard from hearsay, and also paid careful attention to Song Jin''s reaction. "Is there still such a thing?" Song Jin''s interest was aroused. Qin Qi asked again: "Madam, are you worried about the young master?" "He is a married man, what girl would throw something to him?" Song Jin did not take this matter to heart, "Qin Qi''an''s name is very loud in the capital. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a household name. His marriage has long been spread. Otherwise, with the good looks of our husband, , I dont know how many wild bees and butterflies I will attract. Qin Chi is famous not only for his talents. And the bones in his body. Ordinary people don''t know that, but some powerful families know that he has been sick since he was a child and will not live long. What kind of good family would hook up a girl with him? Song Jin naturally didn''t say the latter point. Song Jin didn''t go out, and the rest of the family didn''t dare to go see him. After all, the wife of the master didn''t go out. Are they embarrassed to go? While the two were chatting, someone was staring nearby. There was a group of people who became increasingly frustrated the longer they waited. "The parade has already begun, why haven''t you come out yet? His man has become the number one scholar, and he is going to parade on the streets and not even come out to take a look at such a happy event. There must be something wrong with this woman." A tall, thin man cursed. The other leading man frowned: "Is this news accurate? Is it possible that people have already gone out?" "We have people on the only way." "That person is at home?" Everything is ready. As long as Song Jin appears, they can hijack her and drag her to the dark to destroy the other party''s innocence. According to their master''s order, they must teach the new champion a **** lesson. A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger champion. He thought that the Yuan family could be destroyed by filing an imperial complaint. It''s really overestimating one''s abilities. Another person said in a sinister tone: "I just broke into his house and robbed him, or just did that..." Some of them were unhappy, "You want to die but I don''t want to." The leading man said: "The city is on alert. The number of officers and soldiers patrolling around is doubled. If you make too much noise, you will get dumped. Idiot, go check it out and be careful." So it didn''t take long. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! A salesman came to sell goods near Song Jin''s house with a load. He passed by Song Jin''s house from time to time and saw the door of Kang''s house open, just as Kang Qiaomei came out. The salesman came forward with a smile and asked for a drink of water. As soon as Kang Qiaomei saw her husband, her face turned red immediately and she turned around and headed home. "Qiao sister, what are you doing in such a hurry?" Aunt Kang''s voice came from inside. Kang Qiaomei said: "Mom, there is a man outside who wants to ask for water. I, I have never seen him." Aunt Kang came out wearing new clothes and looked like she was about to go out. After hearing Qiao Mei''s words, she walked out and saw the salesman, "Who are you?" "Auntie, I''m a salesman. I was carrying something here to beg for a drink of water. I surprised your girl. It''s my fault." This salesman was pretending to be a fool among the group of people. Chat with Aunt Kang. Give Mrs. Kang something more. While drinking water, we talked about the No. 1 Scholar, and naturally mentioned the Song Jin family next door. The fool asked with a smile: "The door of the No. 1 Scholar''s house is closed. Are they all out to watch the parade?" "No. Mrs. Qin is not feeling well and can''t go on. Oh, I won''t tell you anymore. I have to rush to the corner of the street to watch the No. 1 Scholar Parade." Aunt Kang turned around and called her daughter. Wait for Kang Qiaomei to come out. The mother and son rushed to the street to watch the excitement. At this time, most of the neighbors rushed to watch the excitement, leaving no one in the alley. Terribly clean. Hanzi knew the situation and was about to pick up the goods and leave. When he was just carrying something and passing by the door of Song Jin''s house, he suddenly received a heavy blow on the back of his head. The severe pain made his vision go dark and he fell down. Someone from behind helped him in time. The door next door to the Song family opened with a creak. Then, the secret guard dragged the fool into the house next door like a dog. This person is Qin Chi''s secret guard. Then another person came out. He brought the load of goods into the house. The door closed with a bang, and calm returned to the alley again. Old Man Hong learned that just as Qin Chi expected, someone had a bad idea of ??Song Jin. He immediately arranged for someone to investigate. This investigation really found the problem. That group of people were all lackeys raised by the Yuan family and worked as bandits outside the city. This time they sneaked into the city and their target was Song Jin. Chapter 262 People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong Chapter 262 People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. In the house next door. Old Man Hong''s aura was so powerful that the people reporting in front of him didn''t dare to raise their heads: "Is it true that someone has an idea for Madam?" "Yes, there is more than one group." The man was sure. Old Man Hong said: "Can you find out the origin?" "One group is the bandits raised by the Yuan family, and the other group is very hidden and has not been found out yet. When they found that someone was targeting them, this group quickly withdrew." "This is unreasonable. It''s too much to deceive others." Old Man Hong hadn''t been angry for a long time. "Ignore the group of people who are evacuating for now. We will seize the bandits hiding in the dark alley and wait for the young master to come back before making a decision." "yes." The secret guard retreated quickly. Not long after, Qin Chi was in his study. Song Jin was sitting at his desk writing a letter home. After hearing Old Man Hong''s report, Song Jin''s face darkened again, "The Yuan family is not angry at what my husband did, but they want to teach him a lesson. Why don''t you dare to deal with him and come after me, a weak woman?" "Yes." Old Man Hong responded. Almost at the same time. In the dark alley where the bandits were hiding, a fierce battle was taking place. The secret guards sent by Old Man Hong are all good players, and they are not ordinary bandits who can resist them. The only one who is capable of fighting is the leading man. The secret guards did not hold back, and those who resisted were killed. It only took less than half an hour. This battle has a result. Three of the bandits died, and the rest were all captured. All they had to do was wait for Qin Chi to come back and ask for instructions before dealing with them. Old Man Hong said thankfully: "Fortunately, Madam didn''t go out." Someone wanted to take advantage of the time when Song Jin went out to watch the No. 1 Scholar Parade, because there would be a huge crowd of people at that time, which was the most suitable time to take action. Plunder people into deserted alleys. Whether it was destroying Song Jin''s innocence or killing him, it was a huge blow to Qin Chi. Afterwards, wait for others to find out. This group of murderers had long since escaped. This plan was originally a good one, and the people behind the plan also felt that it was a sure thing. After all, a top scholar''s wife had no power behind her, so sending so many people to deal with her was a way of giving Qin Chi face. It''s a pity that despite all their calculations, they just couldn''t figure out whether Song Jin would go out. Is this reasonable? It''s simply unreasonable! Even the bandit leader who was captured was confused. In all these years, there has never been a woman who did not go out to watch her husband parade around the streets when he won the first prize. Therefore, before he died, the bandit was struggling with this issue and loudly asked the secret guard: "Then why doesn''t the woman go to the parade? Didn''t it mean that they had a good relationship as a couple? This is not bad..." This is a lie! It''s not just this group of thieves. Even some of the secret guards were surprised. "Did Madam receive the news in advance?" A secret guard whispered. The secret guard next to him kicked the thief, "Mr. Hong has not received any news. Madam, is it possible?" Song Jin''s connections in the capital. Compared to Mr. Hong, he is a world away. The secret guard was even more surprised, "Then, does the madam not care about the young master?" "You want to die? If you want to die, don''t get involved with me." Some of the secret guards knew that the young master wanted his wife. The wife is not sure about the young master. From the fact that the wife has never thought about leaving to do business in other places, it is not clear how much she attaches importance to the young master. Qin Qi came over and happened to hear it, and reprimanded in a low voice: "What nonsense are you talking about? It was the young master who told his wife in advance not to go out today." "I see, the young master has foresight." The secret guard stopped guessing now. They are secret guards and are very strict with outsiders. When secret guards gather together in private, their scruples are not that big. According to Old Man Hong, these secret guards are unqualified. If they had not followed Qin Chi early and were already Qin Chi''s people, Old Man Hong might have returned them to the secret guard camp one by one. But it cannot be denied. Everyone was glad that Song Jin didn''t join in the fun. Song Jin must be willing to listen to Qin Chi''s request. On a day like this, if it were another woman, she would probably have gone against the rules. After all, it was only once in a lifetime when her husband won the first prize in the exam, beat horses and paraded in the streets, and enjoyed endless glory. It''s hard not to look at it. Song Jin actually wanted to take a look. But its more about reason and restraint than the desire to see. Inside the study. The conversation between Old Man Hong and Song Jin continued. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin calmly analyzed: "Isn''t the city under martial law? It''s so easy for bandits to sneak into the city, and 80% of them are covered by someone. There is another point, I am somewhat suspicious." "Madam, please speak." Old Man Hong respected Song Jin very much. Song Jin truthfully stated what he was thinking: "It was too easy for you to check. You knew it was the Yuan family so quickly." "Madam, do you suspect it was not the Yuan family?" Old Man Hong thought about the possibilities. Song Jin said at this time: "The Yuan family is currently being monitored by the Jin Yiwei. It is unlikely that they will take action against me in such a hurry. If you really want to teach me a lesson, you have to wait for some time, at least when outsiders are not paying so much attention." The big reason is Jin Yiwei. Under the eyes of Jin Yiwei, Yuan Shangshu has been in a high position for many years, and it is impossible for him to make such a low-level mistake. Old Man Hong pondered the explanation, "Young master is suing the Yuan family this time. It involves more than just the Yuan family." "You always refer to the forces involved behind Yuan Shangshu?" Song Jinjing reminded him and immediately thought of this, "But there is someone behind the scenes who wants to take action against me, but they want to blame the Yuan family?" Why is this kind of operation so confusing? Old Man Hong thought more than Song Jin, "If Yuan Shangshu is unlucky, officials of all sizes who are involved with him may also be liquidated. Officials'' corruption is never limited to one family. Many times, it is not these people who want to protect themselves. Yuan Shangshu had to protect him." "Is it necessary to attack me to protect him?" The more Song Jin listened, the more confused he became, "No matter how I look at it, I feel that it''s not Bao Yuan Shangshu, but someone who wants to add insult to injury." Or maybe that group is very confident. I thought that today''s matter was 100% certain. "Does Madam have any enemies?" Old Man Hong suddenly asked. Song Jin was stunned when he heard this, "Uncle Hong must be very clear about my situation. Will the Liu family choose to attack me today?" "Jianning Liu family? This is unlikely." Old Man Hong is more inclined to do what a powerful person in the capital did. Qin Chi has the title of Liu Yuan, which is equivalent to having an extra life-saving talisman. The emperor must be paying a lot of attention to him, and touching him at this time is undoubtedly provoking the emperor. The number one scholar from a poor family is really weak in the eyes of a powerful family. Qin Chi can''t be moved for a while, so he gives a **** warning first, which is a common trick used by some powerful people. In the past, Old Man Hong was the head of the secret guard of Prince Rui''s Mansion, so he had some understanding of the behavior of powerful people. No clue who did it. Old Man Hong expressed this suspicion. Song Jin finally realized his dangerous situation. Old Man Hong saw Song Jin''s solemn expression and said, "Madam, don''t worry, the young master will protect you." "I''m not worried, just sad." Song Jin put away the family letters on the desk and said in a faint voice, "It was only at this moment that I realized that the reputation of the Number One Scholar''s wife is not that good. As the saying goes, people are afraid of fame and pigs are afraid of being strong." PS: Happy National Day! ~ Chapter 263 go home Chapter 263 Returning Home After the parade is over, people go back to the clubhouse first. After that, they all left. However, it was already past noon, and Qin Chi had still not returned. Song Jin looked at the door from time to time. Old Man Hong sat in the stone pier and said: "The top three will not come back so soon. They have to go to the palace to meet the emperor and visit other court officials. Madam, don''t be impatient." "So that''s it." Song Jin''s cheeks felt slightly hot. To put it bluntly, it is a necessary social interaction, and people will not be able to come back for a while. The Qin family is still closed. Keep out the door those who want to give gifts. Until nightfall. Song Jin was checking the secret message in the study. After seeing it, she would first reach out to the candle on the table to light it, and then throw it into the brazier aside. Suddenly, the two ajar doors of the study were pushed open with a creak. Song Jin looked up when he heard the sound. Shockingly, he saw Qin Chi at the dim door, wearing the imperial uniform of the No. 1 Scholar, crossing the threshold with his boots on his feet. At this glance, Song Jin was caught off guard and stunned. She was used to seeing Qin Chi in plain clothes and a simple student image. Suddenly seeing him dressed so grandly, it seemed that he had changed his appearance. Especially when he walked towards her, he subconsciously took the official step, giving people a It feels mature, stable and elegant. There''s no denying that he''s very attractive. It is indescribably beautiful, just like the clouds in the sky, gorgeous and natural, shining and eye-catching. "Madam, my husband is back." Qin Chi came to stand in front of Song Jin. Song Jin stood up hurriedly, "Mr., Mr. Xianggong?" "How do you like it? Doesn''t it look good in this outfit for your husband?" Qin Chi turned around in a circle with a smile. Song Jin wants to say that it is indeed beautiful. The court dress is a dark blue Luo robe, edged with green Luo, round collar and big sleeves, white silk midriff, brocade ribbon covering the knees, equipped with a plain silver belt and medicinal jade pendant. On his head is a slightly flat imperial crown, and a number one scholar hairpin with silver branches and leaves, decorated with green feathers. The spring breeze is so proud that the horse''s hooves are so fast that I can see all the flowers in Chang''an in one day. "Congratulations to your husband for your three yuan and six poems." Song Jin expressed his congratulations gently. Qin Chi strode up to her, stretched out his arms to hold her in his arms, "Madam, I am very happy today." "Drinking?" When Song Jin approached him, he smelled the smell of alcohol, "I asked the kitchen to prepare hangover soup for you. Are you going to bring it to you now?" "Don''t worry, let me hold you for a while." As their ears and temples rubbed together, Qin Chi whispered again, "When I am happiest, the person I think of is my wife. I can''t wait to fly home right away to share it with you." "Um." Song Jin knew in his heart that he was indeed drunk. Look, now you start talking nonsense. He murmured a lot of words in his ears, some of which were unclear, but Song Jin didn''t pay attention. After only half an hour, he seemed to fall asleep leaning against her. It is true that Song Jin has a lot to say in his heart, but it is not suitable at this time. He could only help the half-asleep man back to the dormitory, take off the No. 1 Scholar''s imperial uniform for him, keep a middle coat, cover him with the quilt and go out. Then he came back with a basin of warm water in his hand to help Qin Chi wipe his cheeks. and hands and feet. Finally, I went to bring the sobering soup, and I half-supported him to feed him and drink it. Some people are difficult to serve when they are drunk. It is good that Qin Chi does not bother people. "lady?" There was a knock on the door. Qin Qi''s voice sounded outside: "I''m bringing Dr. Jing here." "Come in." Song Jin stood up from the bed. The door creaked open. Qin Qi brought Doctor Jing in. Doctor Jing first saluted Song Jin, then sat upright in front of the bed and took Qin Chi''s pulse. After a while, Doctor Jing said: "The young master is just drunk, there is nothing serious. Just let him sleep and he will be fine." "Excuse me, Doctor Jing." Song Jin expressed his thanks. Doctor Jing smiled and said, "Madam, you''re too polite. I haven''t congratulated you and the young master yet." "There will be a family dinner tomorrow, Doctor Jing, please remember to come." Song Jin invited with a smile. Doctor Jing agreed immediately. Song Jin saw Doctor Jing out and saw Old Man Hong and Old Li Tou outside. Not surprisingly, they wanted to see Qin Chi, and most likely they wanted to talk about what happened today. That''s still really disappointing. "He just fell asleep." Song Jin blocked the door of the bedroom. Old Man Hong and Old Man Li looked at each other. Before the two of them could speak, Song Jin said warmly: "He is very happy to be nominated for the gold list today. Don''t let him be disappointed. If the matter is not urgent, can you wait until he wakes up tomorrow to report it?" Don''t think that they call themselves servants. In this family, they are really servants. They are actually two giant Buddhas. Even Song Jin had to respect him in his heart. Old Man Hong said: "Then let the young master have a good rest." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "That''s right, we''ll talk about it tomorrow." Old Li Tou also spent the whole day running around outside. Song Jin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After the two left, Song Jin returned to the bedroom and closed the door. Some people are happy and some are worried this night. Lets leave aside those who are happy, but among those who are worried, Yuan Shangshu and his followers are one of them. Being targeted by the Jin Yiwei, they will be seriously injured even if they dont die. In addition, he was the person behind the group of bandits. He had been waiting for no news about Song Jin''s accident. Qin Chi didn''t see any movement when he returned home, and he immediately became furious. In a wealthy businessman''s house in the capital. A man wearing half an evil ghost mask was whipping two men kneeling on the ground with a whip. "Trash! You failed to do even the smallest thing." For this man, dealing with Song Jin is really a trivial matter. He has no grudge against Qin Chi, he just wants to destroy him. Who gave Qin Chi the sixth grade? If something happened to his wife who had just been awarded the top prize by the emperor, and the news spread, it would definitely cause a sensation, and Qin Chi''s reputation would be ruined by half. By then, the face of the man in the palace would definitely look very good. Then by the way, he put the blame on the Yuan family, making the water in the capital even more muddy. "Lord, even if the matter is exposed, it will have no impact on our plans." A scribe next to him said. These two subordinates only suffered an unreasonable disaster. The one who makes the plans is the Lord. The reason for the failure is that they have not yet received the message. Among the group of people they mobilized, only the leader was someone they secretly trained, and the others were all thugs secretly trained by the Yuan family. Originally, he didn''t agree with activating the secret weapon. It was the lord who insisted on doing this. The masked man threw away the whip in his hand, "Mr. Yan pleads for you, I will spare you this time, go away." "Thank you, my lord, and thank you, Mr. Yan." The two of them rolled out and crawled out. The masked man has a strong aura, and his eyes are full of hostility. From the frown at the end of his eyes and the gray hair on his head, it can be seen that he is not young. However, his hitting moves were neat. He is obviously a martial arts practitioner. The scribe known as Mr. Yan looks like a middle-aged man, but in fact he is well-kept and has reached the age of knowing his destiny. "Where did Qin Qi''an come from?" The masked man asked and that was the key. Mr. Yan said: "The person from Yi County, Huizhou Prefecture, is indeed a farmer. I have never heard of who he studied under, but after the parade, he went to visit Li Huarong, and he was suspected to be Li Huarong''s disciple." "You think so too?" The masked man sneered. Mr. Yan stroked his beard and pretended to be profound and said: "I have read several of his articles. He is not the same as Li Huarong, but...how to put it, he is not like any other one, but he seems to be the leader of hundreds of schools of thought." That''s a little outrageous. The article is rigorous and mature, unlike what a poor student could write. The masked man said firmly: "There is someone behind him." Mr. Yan nodded, "Are we still going to touch him?" "Don''t move, wait and see first." Qin Chi has just entered the court and will not pose a threat to them in the short term. Todays chapter, Happy National Day. Chapter 264 Cuihua Hutong Chapter 264 Cuihua Hutong Qin Zhuangyuan''s house was a little lively today. One after another, stewards from wealthy families came to the door with gifts. Regardless of whether they knew him or not, they all came with a congratulatory gift. Song Jin received it from Liu Jianfang. A decent gift will not fall into any trap. The person who came to give the gift was the maid Xiaoxi. Xiao Xi is familiar with Song Jin and has something to say: "Mrs. Qin, your appearance has not changed much after not seeing you for many years. No, there has been a change. You have become the No. 1 lady, and you have become more dignified and majestic." "Miss Xiaoxi is really good at talking." Song Jin''s attitude towards her didn''t seem to have changed. After chatting for a while, he turned the topic to Liu Jianfang, "How are you doing, sir? It''s time for you to get married now." Not in the house. There was no one else around, and the matter was not a secret. Xiao Xi said: "My lord is very good. We got married two years ago and we still live in the capital. My uncle is a civil servant and is still studying in the academy, preparing for the next imperial examination." It means I failed this time. And Liu Jianfang married Liu Ji. The two of them currently live in Cuihua Hutong. When Xiao Xi reminded her, she looked around and said, "Ms. Qin should be moving to another place soon." "I didn''t hear my husband mention it." Song Jin said that Qin Chi was still in the bedroom, waking up, dressing and washing up. He woke up late last night due to a hangover. Xiao Xi was surprised, and then said: "I haven''t told you this yet. This place is a little far from the Hanlin Academy. The number one scholar has to go to the Yamen every day, and it is not convenient to go back and forth." "What Miss Xiao Xi said is absolutely true." Song Jin didn''t look down on Xiao Xi just because he was a servant. Qin Chi is now a compiler from the Hanlin Academy of the sixth grade. His main responsibilities are to compile the actual records, record the emperor''s words and deeds, and draft documents related to the ceremony. The official position is not high, but in the long run, Hanlin Academy editing is a very promising position. The Hanlin Academy has a close relationship with the cabinet, and many cabinet members are from the Hanlin Academy. What''s the saying? Those who are not Jinshi will not be admitted to the Hanlin, and those who are not Hanlin will not be admitted to the cabinet. After sending Xiao Xi and others away, Song Jin asked people to remove the tea. When she saw Qin Chi again, Song Jin was keenly aware that something was wrong with his expression. "Ms. sir?" Song Jin approached him. Qin Chi said: "Madam, something almost happened yesterday. Why didn''t someone notify me?" "Nothing happened to me." Song Jin just gave a false alarm yesterday, "Uncle Hong and the secret guards took care of the danger outside in advance." "The Yuan family has gone too far to bully others." A cold look flashed in Qin Chi''s eyes. Song Jin hurriedly said: "This matter is not necessarily the work of the Yuan family. The Yuan family is currently being watched by the Jin Yiwei. It is unlikely that there will be a chance to cause trouble under the eyes of the Jin Yiwei." "That bandit does have a close relationship with the Yuan family." This night was enough for Qin Chi''s people to investigate. Old Man Hong also suspected that powerful people were involved. It is not uncommon for various forces in the capital to plant spies for each other. Qin Chi held Song Jin''s hand and solemnly promised: "I will let people continue the investigation until the person behind the scenes is found out." "My husband is interested." Song Jin didn''t know what Qin Chi was going to do, but he vaguely knew that he had started planning it many years ago. He hoped not to disrupt his plan, "But when do you plan to go to the Hanlin Academy to report, and the distance between your home and the Hanlin Academy is Its far away, do you need to change your house? "I''m ready for the new house." Qin Chi looked at Song Jin with deep eyes, "In Cuihua Hutong, the imperial court has strict regulations on the residences of officials. For sixth- to ninth-grade officials, there are three rooms and seven shelves in the hall, and three rooms and three shelves at the main entrance." The hall with three bays and seven bays means that the width of the hall is three bays, that is, the distance between three columns, and the depth is seven bays, that is, the distance between seven girders. The main entrance with three bays and three bays means that the width of the main entrance is three bays and the depth is three bays. In the Daxia Dynasty, buildings were not only places to live in, but also regarded as symbols of status. Different building specifications represent different social status and power. It doesn''t mean you can do anything if you have money. It''s okay if it exceeds the specification and no one cares about it. Once something goes wrong, it will be the handle. The move was quick. Old Li Tou has arranged for people to clean the new residence, and the furniture has been prepared. Song Jin gave some of the endless pastries at home to her neighbors. After telling her that she was moving, she followed Qin Chi to her new home that afternoon. When I first entered my new home. Song Jin immediately met Lao Huo, who had not been seen for some time. Song Jin never asked where Lao Huo had been during this period, but he knew without asking that he must have been sent by Qin Chi to do business. You can tell from the new shallow scar on his face. This man is a highly skilled and daring man, and his investigative skills are first-class. But seeing Lao Huo reminded Song Jin of Jianning''s Liu family. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi made no move for a long time. What he was waiting for was after he won the top prize. Some things still have to wait until he becomes an official. After he enters the court, it will be easier to do. Qin Chi took his wife with him and walked around the new home leisurely, "How is it? Are you satisfied, madam?" "There is an open space in the backyard, just for planting something." Song Jin turned around and said. Qin Chi asked jokingly: "Do you want to grow vegetables?" "I want to build a greenhouse, not for growing flowers, but for growing vegetables. Then I can have fresh vegetables to eat in winter." The so-called no fresh vegetables to eat in winter only exists among the common people. Wealthy people will try their best to grow winter vegetables, such as growing vegetables in a hot spring village. Qin Chi mentally agreed with Song Jin''s actions. Song Jin pointed to two small rooms in the backyard, "One will be used as a processing room for me, and the other will be used as a warehouse." "Ms. Duyi, do you want to add another servant?" "I remember that there are regulations for sixth-grade officials, is it regulated by the imperial court?" The only slaves who signed a contract of prostitution in Song Jin''s family were the cook and a wife, which were recorded by the Yamen. Neither Old Hong nor Old Li are slaves. Don''t worry about the court investigating. As the saying goes, if there are policies above, there are countermeasures below. People who buy from Song Jin Pharmacy and drug stores have signed a contract of sale, but they will not go to the Yamen to record it. There is also a saying to the outside world that they are hired helpers. The government has no control over how many people are invited. The people at the bottom will not sue the officials just because of this matter. Qin Chi and Song Jin lived in the main house. It is the best and largest main room in the entire house. Some large side rooms can be divided into two or three rooms for servants to live in, so there is no need to worry about not having enough room. Old man Hong and old man Li followed. Old Hong is still the gatekeeper, Old Li is still the driver, and Old Huo is the nurse. Another day of rest. Qin Chi put on his official uniform and reported to the Hanlin Academy. Song Jin got up early to prepare meals for Qin Chi, so when Qin Chi was going out, he was still carrying a food box in his hand. It''s not far from the Hanlin Academy. Qin Chi said that he could walk instead of a carriage. Chapter 265 My wife is afraid that I will be hungry Chapter 265 My wife is afraid that I will be hungry Old Li Tou wanted to give some advice. Qin Chi spoke first: "Cuihua Hutong is full of ordinary officials, and there are very few people riding carriages. I don''t want to be special. Don''t forget, I am just a scholar from a poor family, and I don''t have any extra money to support my family." "Uncle Li, listen to my husband." Song Jin laughed at the side and said, "Doctor Jing said that my husband, walking around more is good for your health." Lao Li didn''t force himself. Qin Ba put on the boy''s clothes and was going to follow him, but Qin Chi insisted on carrying the food box and leaving. Song Jin''s eyelids twitched. I always feel that something is not right with Qin Chi today. Sure enough, as soon as Qin Chi walked out of the gate, someone came out of the house opposite. He was wearing the same official uniform as Qin Chi. He should also be on duty at the Hanlin Academy. The man stood on the steps in front of the door, looked Qin Chi up and down, with a senior attitude that made people uncomfortable, and then walked down the steps to the middle. He straightened his clothes and straightened his chest. Seeing that Qin Chi didn''t express anything for a long time, he coughed lightly again. Qin Chi raised the corner of his mouth and smiled calmly: "What a coincidence, Mr. Dong, are we leaving together? I''m holding a food box in my hand, so it''s inconvenient for me to hold it in my hand as a salute. Please forgive me." "Master Qin, don''t you know that there are meals provided at noon in the Yamen?" When Master Dong spoke, his voice was slightly sharp, and coupled with his rather gloomy face, it was difficult for people to like him. As if Qin Chi didn''t notice, he lifted up his food box and said, "My wife is worried that I am hungry and insists on letting me take it with me. There is nothing I can do." Dong Xingde''s expression froze when he heard this. Suddenly he snorted coldly, and strode away first as if he didn''t want to be with him. Qin Chi smiled and followed him. We walked another dozen steps. I met another official who was going to the Yamen. The official greeted him warmly, "Isn''t this Qin Zhuangyuan? I''m going to report today. I won''t have a few more days to rest." "Report early and feel at ease, so you don''t have to worry about it all the time at home, right?" As soon as Qin Chi said this, the people who listened were stunned for a moment, and then laughed. Isnt this the case for all scholars who have just entered the court and become officials? Then the man saw the conspicuous food box in Qin Chi''s hand, "Are you taking it to the Yamen?" "My wife is afraid that I will be hungry, so she has to give up..." Qin Chi approached the man and chatted while walking. The aloof No. 1 Scholar fell from the altar, and instantly narrowed the distance between him and normal people. It can be said that Qin Chi was rare and approachable, and he would not be able to recognize his position without being nominated for the gold list. Song Jin at the door. When I saw these accidentally, I was immediately speechless. When Qin Ba and Lao Litou heard this, their mouths twitched. If their young master does something like this, I''m afraid most of the people in the capital will know that the new number one scholar and his wife are deeply in love. Song Jin stood inside the threshold and saw Old Man Hong beside him. "Uncle Hong, who is Mr. Dong?" "Dong Xingde, the last top scholar, was an errand in the Hanlin Academy. Like the young master, he also came from a poor family." Old Man Hong didn''t understand Qin Chi''s operation at first, but now he understands what Qin Chi did. "The young master said that we should learn from Dong Xingde." "It is rumored that the top scholar with a criminal record is sitting on the bench in the Hanlin Academy?" Song Jin suddenly felt that Qin Chi was a bit wicked. I specially moved to Cuihua Hutong, where ordinary officials live, and it is also the house opposite the former champion. The former and current champions live across from each other. Just step out and you''ll hit it. When others talk about Qin Chi''s move, they inevitably mention him as a former criminal. Since Dong Xingde sat on the bench in the Hanlin Academy for three years, we know that his popularity is not very good. When I met him today, his personality was indeed unpleasant. With his criminal record as a comparison, Qin Chi''s existence can be called a white lotus in the world. The more people look at him, the more pleasing they are. This is especially obvious when he arrives at the Hanlin Academy. This person is afraid of comparison. Song Jin saw through it but didn''t say anything, "I''ll send food to the neighbor later, and give a double portion to the opposite door." Old Man Hong was confused. Even other people don''t understand. Song Jin just went to the kitchen to talk to the cook. The carriage carrying things also brought a letter to Song Jin. The letter was written by Xing Lun. The content was that the Liu family''s purchasing manager found him again as Song Jin expected and invited him to a restaurant for a chat. After three rounds of drinking, he offered to buy medicinal materials at half the price. Xing Lun declined on the spot. The Liu family was unyielding and even threatened. Xing Lun had already left Shuntian Mansion with his fleet last night. Song Jin looked at him, his face was terrifyingly calm. After reading the letter, it was burned. "Ah Qi, go outside and ask if there are any rumors that the Liu family is bullying others and scaring away the drug dealers." Song Jin said to Qin Qi beside him. Qin Qi respectfully agreed and went out to investigate. It''s approaching noon. Song Jin heard the rumors outside. It was said that the Liu family was interested in the medicinal materials of a certain pharmacist and threatened to sell them to the Liu family at half price. If they did not sell, they would not be able to do business. The merchant was so cowardly that he fled the capital overnight! The rumors were stopped at noon and did not cause much trouble. Qin Qi said: "When the Liu family heard the rumors, they immediately punished the purchasing manager. Telling the outside world that this matter was purely a misunderstanding." "Oh, I see." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin knew that this matter would not cause much trouble to the Liu family, so he was not disappointed. A thousand-mile embankment collapsed in an ant nest. Take your time. Hanlin Academy. All officials took a break at noon. Qin Chi spent the whole morning learning about his future work. The person responsible for acquainting him with the work was Dong Xingde. When Qin Chi thought that the other party would make things difficult for him, although the other party still had a bad look on his face, he explained the work process in detail and reminded him of things that needed to be paid attention to. "Master Dong, it''s time to eat." The servant in charge of chores came over and delivered lunch meals to Dong Xingde. A bowl of rice, a portion of boiled vegetables and boiled meat slices. Qin Chi took out the food box he brought and asked the handyman to help heat up the food. Originally, Dong Xingde was used to eating. When he saw the handyman bringing the hot food to him, Dong Xingde suddenly felt that his food was a bit hard to swallow. At first glance, the other party''s food didn''t look outstanding. It consisted of braised pork ribs with a strong aroma, a portion of green stir-fried cabbage, a nourishing soup, and a bowl of rice. Obviously a very ordinary meal. It''s so tempting that people can''t take their eyes away. Looking back at his own, the wilted boiled vegetables and pure boiled meat slices could not arouse his appetite at all. The free lunch provided by the small kitchen of Hanlin Academy is boiled vegetables and meat all year round, no matter whether everyone gets tired of it or not. Someone once raised an opinion, but was unanimously scorned. They said it was a tradition of the Hanlin Academy. The reason was a bit nonsense. They said it was about cultivating one''s moral character, caring for the common people, etc. Qin Chi learned about the Hanlin Academy in advance. He also knew about lunch, but he couldn''t figure out what relationship a lunch had to all the people in the world. "Master Dong, do you want to eat together?" Qin Chi issued a polite invitation. Dong Xingde refused with a straight face and said: "Sage Kong said: The superior is the model of the people. Officials should set an example, establish a good demeanor, and lead the people forward. You have just entered the court as an official, so you should be diligent and thrifty-" "Hey, I finally found it!" A fat, white official came over, holding a bowl of rice. His eyes lit up as soon as he saw the braised pork ribs in front of Qin Chi, "Qi''an, you''ve finished your meal..." "Master Yan..." Qin Chi stood up to salute. The person who came was a bachelor, the boss of Qin Chi''s immediate superior. When he saw Qin Chi wanting to salute, he quickly stopped him and said, "No need to be polite, no need to be polite! From now on, we are all colleagues and a family." "Sir, would you like to have dinner together?" Qin Chi took the initiative to invite the other party, "My wife has prepared a slightly larger portion. I''m afraid I won''t be able to finish it by myself." "Okay, I''ll help you eat something." As Mr. Yan spoke, he stretched out his chopsticks towards the braised pork ribs. The aroma of the pork ribs made him want to cry, "Why didn''t I think about bringing rice before? Why did I stupidly eat boiled white meat for more than ten years? This is human What did you do?" He pretended to cry while eating. Qin Chi''s mouth twitched slightly. In just such a short time, half of the braised pork ribs were missing. Qin Chi quickly joined the eating procession, eating gracefully and gracefully. This is the upbringing and demeanor that comes from his bones. It is hard to imagine that he just comes from a peasant background. Wait until the meal is finished. The distance between people has also narrowed unconsciously. This is exactly Qin Chi''s purpose. Chapter 266 The first day on duty at the Hanlin Academy Chapter 266 The first day on duty at the Hanlin Academy Qin Chi originally had a good reputation. Not to mention the grievances between him and the Yuan family that caused uproar in the city, just the rare sixth grade passed him, which attracted much attention on the first day he came to the Hanlin Academy. In the morning everyone was watching. When Academician Yan and Qin Chi were sitting together for dinner, someone else found a reason to come over. It was another academician who was of the same level as Academician Yan. When a person comes here, people who are familiar with him can naturally come over. No matter how many thoughts are behind the scenes, when everyone is sitting together, they are like friends who have known each other for many years, chatting and laughing happily. Qin Chi is a newcomer. He didn''t rush to interrupt, but he wasn''t too silent. When it comes to matters that are not confidential, he will ask for advice at the right time. The other party was happy to give him pointers. "Qian, today is your first time as an official. How do you feel?" Someone nearby laughed and joked. After hearing this, Qin Chi smiled shyly, stood up and bowed slightly to everyone sitting there, bowing slightly and saluting, "To be honest, I was nervous before I came here. After I came, I felt very strange. My colleagues also felt it." Very approachable. "Novel?" someone was surprised. Another person laughed and said: "This description is fresh." Qin Chi smiled again and said: "Yeah, just like Mr. Dong who taught me for a long time. He is serious about words, but he does his best when teaching me. There is also Mr. Yan. I thought my bosses were all serious and upright. This contact When I came down, I found that he was very friendly and friendly. "Hahaha." "You''re not bad either." "When I heard the rumors about you before, I thought you had three heads and six arms. But when I saw you in person, hey, he''s no different from us." "Yes, yes." Almost all of the words these people said to me were good words, which could be regarded as a good relationship. It is true that some people secretly cursed Qin Chi as a thief, but the words that came out of their mouths were also good words. Dong Xingde, who had always been sidelined and excluded, snorted in his heart. His opinion of Qin Chi was slightly better, but it was not so good for others. They are all villains who follow the trend! No matter how noble you are, no matter how pleasant your words are, when interests are involved, those who should stab you will still do it. "Is Qin Qian here?" A **** with a palm seal came to the Imperial Academy. Qin Chi stood up and said, "I am Qin Qi''an. Why do you come to see me?" "Your Majesty bids you go to Wenyuan Pavilion for an audience." The **** led Qin Chi away. The people behind him had different expressions when they saw this scene. On the first day that a new official takes office, he is summoned by the emperor. This must be such incredible luck. There is no one here who has to wait for several years to show his face in front of the emperor. For example, Dong Xingde. The last time I saw the emperor was two years ago. "Qin Zhuangyuan is so lucky!" One official sighed. Another person added: "I kind of sympathize with the scholars at the same time as him, who were overshadowed by his limelight." "When you say that, I think of the second and third best students in Jinke. They are also in the top three. Now they haven''t even made a splash. Fortunately, they haven''t reported to the Hanlin Academy yet..." Otherwise, wouldnt you be terribly jealous? Don''t talk about others, they are also jealous. The chief officer of the Hanlin Academy is the bachelor of the academy. At the same time, some people call him Hanlin bachelor. The previous head of the court was Li Huarong. Li Huarong was dismissed by the emperor last year. Today, the position is still vacant. The emperor promoted no one else. The rank of the academician in charge is the fifth rank. Although his rank is not as high as that of the cabinet ministers, his real power and influence are very great. You must know that the Hanlin Academy is not only responsible for drafting edicts, recording the emperor''s words and deeds, compiling national history and other important tasks, but also directly participates in it. The formulation and discussion of national policies are all the core matters of the imperial court. Therefore, there are countless people staring at this position. Among them, Bachelor Yan is one of them. Qin Chi came to Wenyuan Pavilion with the **** who was responsible for the ceremony. Qin Chi chatted with the **** along the way. I learned from this that the eunuch''s name was Ji Xiang. No matter how much I asked, I couldn''t tell him. He had a very strict mouth. Wenyuan Pavilion is the seat of the cabinet of this dynasty. It is located in the southeast corner of Zuoshunmen in the palace. After retiring from the court, the emperor and cabinet ministers would continue to work in Wenyuan Pavilion, reviewing memorials and handling government affairs. Because of its quiet location and rich collection of books, it has become an important place for handling national affairs. Stop in front of the temple. Two eunuchs stood at the door. When Qin Chi came over, an **** bowed his head and went into the hall to report. "Invite him in." There was a manly voice inside. The chief **** came out and said, "Master Qin, your Majesty has invited me." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Thank you, father-in-law." Qin Chi straightened his sleeves and walked in with his eyes lowered. In Wenyuan Pavilion, the sandalwood scent is faint. The atmosphere in the palace was solemn and solemn. The eunuchs stood with their heads bowed and their breathing was muffled. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty sat in front of the dragon case. He was dressed in a dragon robe with a flying dragon embroidered with gold thread, shining brightly. The vicissitudes of his face were engraved with the traces of time, and his temples were white with frost. His eyes were like torches, examining Qin Chi below. "The humble minister Qin Qi''an pays homage to Your Majesty." Qin Chi stepped forward and bowed with his hands, showing utmost respect. Emperor Ming Cheng''s voice was deep and powerful: "Qin Aiqing, please be flat." Qin Chi slowly straightened up. The moment he raised his head, his eyes met the emperor''s, and then he quickly lowered his head. Emperor Ming Cheng waved his hand, motioning Qin Chi to come forward, and tapped the memorial on the case, "Do you want to read the results of Jin Yiwei''s investigation of the Yuan family?" "This is against the rules." Qin Chi''s words seemed to be an answer, but at the same time he seemed to have no answer, "This case involves Wei Chen himself, so he should avoid suspicion." Emperor Mingcheng said: "I have never seen you consider whether it is in line with the rules to sue a court official in front of the palace." Qin Chi showed a wry smile and said, "Your Majesty, I was forced to do this, and it was not what I wanted." "Okay, I allow you to look at it." Emperor Ming Cheng knew that this boy was very courageous. After he signaled again, Qin Chi stepped forward and picked up the memorial on the dragon case. The Yuan family''s case is written in detail above. Mrs. Yuan has been imprisoned and is waiting to be executed by Queen Qiu. On the contrary, Yuan Shangshu''s crime was not painful, so he went home and was suspended for self-examination and fined one year''s salary. Among the numerous evidences of the Yuan family''s crimes, there is also evidence of corruption and bribery provided by the Yang family. It''s impossible that Jin Yiwei can''t investigate anything. Nothing is mentioned in the booklet. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty made it clear that he wanted to protect Yuan Shangshu. "The cause of this case is the grudge between Yuan Shipeng and you. Yuan Shipeng has been expelled from the Yuan family earlier. Yuan also confessed and admitted that she was responsible for it. I have ordered Yuan Shangshu to go home and be grounded for reflection. We will talk about it when we have figured it out. Emperor Mingcheng''s voice was filled with unquestionable majesty. Qin Chi bowed his head and responded. Emperor Mingcheng stared at Qin Chi for a while. Seeing that Qin Chi no longer argued hard to overturn the investigation results, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After all, it was Qin Chi who suffered the loss. "You step back first, and I will give you a compensation." "I thank you, Your Majesty." After Qin Chi thanked him, he bowed and left. Chapter 267 The imperial edict Chapter 267: The Imperial Order Wait for Qin Chi to return to the Hanlin Academy. Not long after, two imperial edicts arrived. Bachelor Yan was promoted to Bachelor of the Academy. Qin Chi took his place and became a bachelor of the fifth rank. He skipped the position of a scholar or a lecturer and was directly promoted to a bachelor. He was promoted beyond the rank and was still on his first day as an official. Qin Chi thanked him for accepting the imperial edict. The **** in charge of ceremony said: "Congratulations to Mr. Qin on your promotion. The official seal and new official uniform will be delivered to the house later." "Thank you, father-in-law." Qin Chi thanked him and said, "When I have time later, I''ll treat my father-in-law to tea." "Your Excellency is interested." The **** who was responsible for the ceremony left as quickly as he came. Qin Chi put the imperial edict away. Everyone in the Hanlin Academy immediately gathered around, first congratulating Academician Yan and then congratulating Qin Chi. Everyone was saying congratulations, but they felt very unhappy in their hearts, especially when they saw the imperial edict in Qin Chi''s hand, they felt even more outrageous. On his first day as an official, he was promoted two levels in a row. I wouldnt even dare to write it like this in a script! Qin Chi accepted everyone''s congratulations calmly. He knew that this was what Emperor Ming Cheng called compensation. There was no need to perform my original duties in the afternoon, so I left the Hanlin Academy early, and Bachelor Yan proposed to accompany him. The two walked side by side. There was no one around to follow. Academician Yan said warmly: "Pray for peace, thank you very much." "Where does this thank you come from, sir?" Qin Chi was confused. Yan Xueshi said happily: "Stop pretending, I understand. It doesn''t matter if you don''t admit it. I understand it in my heart, and I will keep the favor in my heart." After saying that, the man smiled and walked forward first. Qin Chi hurriedly caught up and denied, "No, sir, I really misunderstood. You were promoted because His Majesty took a fancy to your ability, and it has nothing to do with your lower rank." "Okay, okay, it doesn''t matter if you say it doesn''t matter." Xueshi Yan''s tone was very perfunctory. After saying this, people got on the Yan family''s carriage. Qin Chi really wanted to say one more thing, I am telling the truth, it really has nothing to do with me. Although it is very likely that Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty wanted to compensate Qin Chi and thought of promoting him, however, the officials in the Hanlin Academy were all carrots and pitfalls. The only pitfall that was not filled was the bachelor of the Academy. Qin Chi''s qualifications are still relatively young, so it is not suitable for him to be a bachelor of the academy. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty then lifted Xueshi Yan up and moved Qin Chi''s place. Matters related to the emperor usually have to be seen through but not revealed. Looking at the carriage going away, Qin Chi curled his lips and smiled softly. "Master." Qin Ba stayed outside. When he saw Qin Chi coming out, he showed up immediately. Qin Chi handed the empty food box to Qin Ba, then put the imperial edict in his hand into his sleeve pocket, "Go home." Qin Ba was very surprised. Is it so early for the Hanlin Academy to go to the Yamen? Since Qin Chi returned home early and did not see Song Jin, he asked Old Man Hong and learned that Song Jin was in the processing room in the backyard. Old Man Hong asked: "Is it hard for my colleagues in the Yamen to get along with you when you come back so early?" "No, on the contrary, they are all very kind." Qin Chi smiled, took out the imperial edict and handed it to Old Man Hong, "I came back because I was promoted. Come and see for yourself, is it funny?" "If I were promoted to someone else, I would It may feel ridiculous, but if you give it to the young master, it feels pretty good." Old Man Hong clearly distinguished the inside and outside, and Qin Ba nodded along with him. Qin Chi laughed loudly, "It''s quite ridiculous." Just then, Song Jin came out of the backyard, wearing coarse clothes, and a few strands of black hair on his forehead were wet with sweat, "I heard my husband''s laughter from a distance, what are you talking about?" Qin Chi said with a smile: "Come and tell my wife the good news." "What''s a good thing?" Song Jin asked with a smile. Qin Chi took a step back, then bowed to Song Jin in a formal manner, "Congratulations, Madam, on your upcoming royal decree. From now on, everyone will call you Song An." Song Jin didn''t understand for a moment, "Where do these words come from?" "My husband has been promoted, and now he is a bachelor''s degree student at the Hanlin Academy." Qin Chi smiled very reservedly, but for some reason people always had the urge to tear off his smiling face. Fortunately, Song Jin was not an official. Otherwise, seeing him in this condition, his mentality may collapse. Song Jin couldn''t help but ask: "Wouldn''t other officials in the court have objections to my husband''s behavior?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Your Majesty wants to promote me, who dares to have any objection? You must know that the whole world belongs to your Majesty." Qin Chi connoted Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. As he got older, Emperor Ming Cheng became more willful and self-willed, unable to listen to the advice of others. The ministers who advised him, such as Li Huarong, were dismissed from office. However, the punishment for dismissal was light. In recent years, three censors have died. Of course, you can only think about these words in your heart, and you cannot say them casually even at home. Song Jin smiled and said, "Then we''ll add food tonight." "Thank you, madam. I would like to invite my colleagues to my house for dinner tomorrow, so I can help my lady to pay more attention." This socializing is very necessary. The Qin family is happy here. Things were not going well in the Hanlin Academy. After Yan Xueshi and Qin Chi left, the courtyard became extremely quiet for an instant. They finally made it to the yamen, and everyone left anxiously. I usually say hello. Now I dont even say hello! Some people went home directly, while others went to find supporters of their own faction. "Qin Qi''an was promoted to a bachelor''s degree. You are joking." Yuan Shangshu, who was being grounded in the palace and had been an official for decades, almost lost his balance now, "Where did you get this news?" "The imperial edict for promotion has been issued, and everyone in the Hanlin Academy who is on duty today has seen it." The person who spoke was Mao Shaojie, an attendant of the Hanlin Academy. Mao Shaojie was almost going crazy with jealousy at this time. He spent more than ten years in the Hanlin Academy before going from being a scholar to being a scholar. This year, he is expected to pass the examination and be promoted to a bachelor''s degree. After all, the chief official of the Hanlin Academy is vacant, and it would be unreasonable to delay it any longer. Emperor Ming Cheng is likely to promote one person from among the four bachelors. When the time comes, it''s his chance. Things turned out just as he expected. There was indeed a seat available. However, the seat was taken away by a young boy who had just entered the officialdom! Mao Shaojie said angrily: "On the first day after taking office, I was promoted to two levels. Why?! Sir, who is supporting Qin Qian behind the scenes and seeking his benefits so blatantly?" "Don''t be impatient. Tell me carefully what happened in the Hanlin Academy today. Don''t miss any small details." After Yuan Shangshu lost his composure briefly, he quickly regained his composure and asked Mao Shaojie carefully about what he had heard today. Mao Shaojie said it truthfully. The official positions of the Hanlin Academy include bachelor''s degree in charge, bachelor''s degree in charge, bachelor''s degree in attendance, bachelor''s degree in attendance, lecturer in attendance, compiler, editor, reviewer, and concubine, etc. The chief officer is a bachelor of the academy. There are two bachelor''s degree attendants and two bachelor''s degree attendants each, starting from the fifth rank. There are two attendant readers and two attendant lecturers, respectively, with the rank of six. The number of editors, editors, reviewers, and congratulators is variable. Therefore, the official position awarded to the editor by the number one scholar is not a low position in the Hanlin Academy. If you think about it, there are nine official positions such as minister. Some people sit on it for a lifetime, and it is really not easy to make room for them. Most scholars who enter the Hanlin Academy may not be able to make it through in their lifetime. Those with backgrounds almost always stay for a while, treating it as a layer of gold, and then find connections to work in other departments. This shows that Qin Chi was jealous of his colleagues when he was immediately promoted to bachelor''s degree when he first came here. Chapter 268 Palace affairs Chapter 268 Past events in the palace Its not just the Yuan family. Almost at the same time. Mr. Yang Ge also received the news. At the same time, Emperor Ming Cheng also knew about the summoning of Qin Chi in Wenyuan Pavilion, "Are you saying that Qin Qi''an received the imperial edict not long after he met the Holy One?" "Indeed." The visitor was Ke Bingzhi, another bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. "Teacher, I originally thought that I could make further progress this year, but I didn''t expect that I would be disappointed after all." Ke Bingzhi is a disciple of Mr. Yang Ge. With Mr. Yang Ge''s secret support over the years, his promotion rate was not slow, but it took nearly ten years to reach his current position. I originally thought he was doing well. Why did the man named Qin achieve his achievements in just one day? ! Mr. Yang Ge said with a strong voice: "Bingzhi, keep your mind stable. We are all mortals. Don''t compete with evildoers." "Monster, monster?" "For thousands of years, there will always be one or two people who are incomparable to normal people." As a cabinet bachelor, Mr. Yang Ge naturally has profound knowledge and knowledge that is not comparable to ordinary people. People like Qin Chi can only be described as monsters. It doesn''t look like what the world should be like at all. It happened that he existed in front of them again. People who were born in the same period as him could only consider themselves unlucky. Because as long as he exists, others will be suppressed and dimmed. "If you endure it any longer, he won''t stay in the Hanlin Academy for a long time." Although Mr. Yang Ge couldn''t see through Qin Chi, he had some understanding of Emperor Ming Cheng. "This time, His Majesty promoted Qin Chi in an unusual way. In addition to compensation, , there must be other intentions. After all, Old Ghost Yuan escaped from this disaster. How he managed to escape was not clear to Mr. Yang Ge. He still needs someone to investigate again. Word spread about Qin Chi''s promotion. There were all kinds of envy, doubts, or sarcastic remarks, but these people only dared to talk in private. When they stood in front of others, they showed another upright posture. This is His Majesty''s will. Promoting Qin Qi''an must be because His Majesty values ??him and so on. All parties are also investigating. Some people only know some things on the surface, but some forces can find out the truth behind the scenes. For example, Old Man Hong knew it that night. He has someone in the palace. In the newly decorated study, several lamps were lit, illuminating the room as brightly as day. "Yuan Shangshu was accused of corruption by a subordinate. His family has been confiscated and will be exiled in a few days. There is also news that Yuan Shangshu sent a granddaughter to the palace yesterday. This girl''s appearance and temperament It looks exactly like the deceased Concubine Shu." Old Man Hong reported the news he just got to Qin Chi. Qin Chi tightened his grip on the penholder and said, "Concubine Shu?" "This is an old incident in the palace many years ago." Old Man Hong continued, "Concubine Shu is the eldest daughter of Mr. Yang Ge. She cannot be called a peerless beauty. Her temperament and temperament just caught the emperor''s eyes, but she has One day she suddenly died of illness. In fact, she died of poisoning after eating together with the emperor. It is said that she indirectly saved the emperor''s life. " It''s time for people to be pampered. If he died suddenly, wouldn''t this become a cinnabar mole in the emperor''s heart? This was the first time Qin Chi heard about this. It is not without reason that the Yang family has won the emperor''s trust. What has to be sacrificed in the process is a human life. Talking about this old incident in the palace many years ago. Old Man Hong continued: "At that time, the emperor was furious and bloodbathed the palace. Finally, the murderer was found out. She was just a little beauty. The beauty was killed by the emperor on the spot, along with the beauty''s family." Then, Old Man Hong sneered, "That beauty screamed that she was wronged until she died." "Is this a scapegoat?" "Yes, he was used as a scapegoat by the Yang family." "Which...Yang family?" Qin Chi was very surprised by this result, "Uncle Hong, do you mean Concubine Shu''s death was directed and acted by the Yang family?" "good." Old man Hong simply told the old story. An informant he placed in the palace back then worked as an errand for Concubine Shu Yang, and sent the truth out of the palace before his death. Otherwise, the truth would most likely be buried. Old Man Hong added: "Yang Zhengkai''s official career was not going well at that time. He had been working hard at the Hanlin Academy. It was a worthwhile deal to exchange the death of a daughter for a hundred years of prosperity for the Yang family." "Concubine Shu is also an insider?" "Without her cooperation, nothing would have happened. I heard that she had her heart set on belonging before she entered the palace, and she probably had death intentions for a long time." Old Man Hong said eloquently. Now it seems that the Yang family''s plan is very successful. No one has ever doubted the Yang family, including Emperor Ming Cheng. Who would have expected Mr. Yang Ge to be so ruthless? Send your daughter to die when she is favored? Just to show favor to the emperor, he calculated the emperor''s thoughts clearly. This incident refreshed Qin Chi''s understanding of Mr. Yang Ge. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! A person who is ruthless can achieve great things. That night, before going to bed. Qin Chi told Song Jin about this matter, which made Song Jin feel solemn. "I didn''t expect that person at such a young age could still be so confused about priorities. Just because of a woman who looked like Concubine Shu, he let the Yuan family go." Song Jin turned to face Qin Chi and spoke very quietly, not afraid of ears through the wall, "This Where are the people of the world?" This reminded Song Jin of himself. Can her family''s case be brought to light? Can Emperor Mingcheng be allowed to make the decision? Obviously she didn''t dare to gamble. If the king of a country is ignoring the law, how can he ask his courtiers to abide by it? Now the Yang family is highly valued by the emperor. Even if someone came to the emperor and said that Concubine Shu was plotting against him, no one would believe it. The two chatted until late at night. Song Jin reminded Qin Chi before going to bed, "Be careful when going to the Hanlin Academy. There is no shortage of villains wherever you go in this world." "I''ll pay attention." Qin Chi gently hugged Song Jin and said, "It''s getting late. Madam, please go to sleep." The couple slept in each other''s arms. Early the next morning. It''s not yet bright outside. Qin Chi got up and wore casual clothes. When breakfast was served, Song Jin glanced at him and said, "My husband is not going to the Hanlin Academy on errands today?" "I''m not in a hurry as I''m on duty. The new official uniforms haven''t been delivered yet. I''ll go to the Hanlin Academy later and invite my colleagues to have a casual meal at noon." Qin Chi told Song Jin the "tradition" of Hanlin Academy lunch as an interesting story. Song Jin felt fresh after hearing this. A treat is a must for a new official. It should not be grand or shabby. It is just right to invite everyone to have a casual meal at noon. Qin Chi bumped into Dong Xingde again when he was going out. Dong Xingde''s face looked slightly stiff. "Master Dong, what a coincidence." Qin Chi took the initiative to say hello. When they met yesterday, they were still at the same level, and Dong Xingde could still act like a senior. Today Qin Chi is his superior officer. No matter how unhappy he was, he still had to salute Qin Chi and said, "Your Majesty, Dong Xingde, has met Mr. Qin." "You don''t have to be polite outside. Come to my house for dinner at noon." Qin Chi invited him deliberately. Dong Xingde agreed sourly. Chapter 269 Gods love in the world Chapter 269 Gods great love in the world Qin Chi met Dong Xingde. Then they went to the Hanlin Academy together. Qin Chi greeted other officials who were going to the Yamen on the way, and his main attitude was cordial and easy-going. Hearing the shocking news about Qin Chi''s promotion last night, and then seeing the sourness in his heart, and seeing Qin Chi''s gentle smile, the feeling of injustice suddenly weakened a little. As the saying goes, don''t hit someone with a smiling face. It is not without reason that this saying has been passed down to this day. Qin Chi knows better than anyone else. From the moment he was promoted, he became a prominent figure in the eyes of court officials, and he was extremely conspicuous. If it is not handled well, it will become the target of public criticism. among the officials. Mao Shaojie was also present, and said with a strange tone: "Qin Zhuangyuan is so lucky, I am far inferior to him." "You''d better not give up on my luck." There was helplessness in Qin Chi''s words. Those who knew about it were stunned when they heard this. The people present can be officials, so they can naturally understand the meaning behind the words. Someone who didn''t know anything came over and said, "No. 1 Scholar, please tell me in detail?" "First of all, I have to escape death a few times. If I''m lucky enough to survive, I guess I''ll be as lucky as I am." As soon as Qin Chi said these words, everyone was stunned. You really dont want this luck. Qin Chi looked towards the direction of the palace with gratitude, "I am here today only because Your Majesty saw that I was so unlucky, and felt sympathy for me, so he gave me a compensation to let me feel the love and warmth of the world. Your Majesty is a kind king and a role model for us scholars. "Yes, my king has great love in his heart." "Your Majesty is benevolent." What follows is a string of words praising the emperor. I just want to beep. Gods great love and warmth in this world. It reminded everyone of Qin Chi''s lawsuit against the Yuan family in front of the palace. Qin Chi didn''t say it clearly, but the smart people heard clearly that his promotion was related to this matter. Dong Xingde followed a group of people. Staring at Qin Chi''s back, it was as if he was staring at a hole. After only knowing him for two days, he realized that this person was not a simple person. It seemed like a few words just now. In fact, he revealed the reason for his promotion, which greatly reduced everyone''s opinions and jealousy towards him. Wait for the reason for this to spread. Qin Chi''s official position was also secured. In addition, Qin Chi just complimented Emperor Ming Cheng in public. It won''t take long for Jin Yiwei''s spies to know about it, and then it will be reported to the emperor. Its hard to say whether the emperor will see it, but he will definitely put it on the imperial cabinet. If he sees it, Long Xin will be delighted. Maybe there will be a reward! Not all the people living in Cuihua Hutong are officials from the Imperial Academy. There are people in various departments, but the positions are not high. So as we walked, the only people who were different from each other were Qin Chi and Dong Xingde. Dong Xingde, who was in his thirties, before entering the Hanlin Academy, finally suppressed his words: "I, Dong Xingde, are not as good as you." Throwing this sentence aside, he walked away with his head held high. Qin Chi was speechless. Compared with scheming people, he prefers to deal with people like Dong Xingde. The reason is easy to understand. Qin Chi said hello to his colleagues from yesterday and invited them to Cuihua Hutong for lunch. Also point out before the invitation that this is just a common occurrence. No need to bring any etiquette. After walking around the Hanlin Academy and seeing no scholar Yan, Qin Chi left. After going out, I went to meet my classmate Lu Yanji. Lu Yanji was still staying at the inn he was renting. When I found him, I happened to see a scholar beside him. The two seemed to be discussing something. When Qin Chi approached, Lu Yanji quickly noticed him, stood up and said in surprise: "Qi''an, why do you have time to come here?" "I just have some free time, so I came to see you." Among the Jinshi at the same time, Qin Chi was only familiar with Lu Yanji, "Are you here?" "We are discussing the test questions. Brother Lu and I are going to take the shujishi test." Lu Yanji pulled Qin Chi and sat down. The scholar next to him bowed to Qin Chi, "Lu Baizhou has met Mr. Qin." "I remember you." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! When Qin Chi heard his name, he immediately remembered who he was. Wasn''t he one of the two candidates they met when they came to Beijing to take the exam. He looked around, "Where''s the other person?" "He failed the exam and has left Beijing." Lu Baizhou sat down at Qin Chi''s signal. When I came to the capital, I heard a lot about Qin Chi''s deeds. Lu Baizhou looked at him with bright eyes and admired him, but he pretended to be reserved and held it back, probably because he was afraid that he would not be able to catch Qin Chi''s eyes. Qin Chi felt strange when he saw his appearance, "I''m just an ordinary person. I don''t have to be formal. I just need to be as comfortable as Brother Yanji." "I''m so happy that I met you today." The corners of Lu Baizhou''s mouth kept rising as he spoke, but he suppressed him tightly again, "I''m lucky that I met you on the way and I was able to reach the capital safely. As for me, This is equivalent to the grace of reinvention. Finish this sentence. Lu Baizhou stood up cautiously again. He bowed deeply to Qin Chi. There is nothing I can do to repay him, I can only bow to express my gratitude. Qin Chi helped him up due to his injuries, "It really doesn''t have to be like this." "I know, I''ll just rest on my gratitude. I''ll repay it later when I''m able." Lu Baizhou said with an expression that I understand very well. Qin Chi was choked and speechless. Lu Yanji, who was next to him, laughed out loud, "Haha, Qi''an, don''t worry about it, that''s just how others are. You''ll know after you get along with him for a while." I stayed in the inn for half an hour. Qin Chi made an invitation: "Today at noon, I invited some colleagues from the Hanlin Academy to sit at home. Do you two want to come together?" Their eyes suddenly lit up. He immediately agreed. How could you miss such a good opportunity? After all, there is a difference between meeting officials of the Hanlin Academy and not meeting them before taking the imperial examination. At least you can have an impression. "You must understand that everything has two sides." Qin Chi gave an appropriate reminder. Their expressions suddenly became more serious. Lu Yanji and Lu Baizhou are not stupid people. If they go back with Qin Chi this time, they will probably be labeled as Qin Chi. When they go to take the exam for common people, someone may look at Qin Chi''s face. Let them pass the assessment, and there may be someone who refuses to deal with Qin Chi and brushes them off. "It doesn''t matter, life is just a gamble." Lu Baizhou took this seriously, "It''s okay to lose once. There is still a chance to gamble again." Lu Yanji smiled and said: "No, if you pass, you will pass. If you fail, it doesn''t matter. I will take the exam again next time. If I really can''t pass the exam, I can find a way to find a job somewhere else. If it doesn''t work, I can just be a county magistrate." Okay, I can be an official anyway. "Just think about it carefully." Qin Chi was the first to state the pros and cons because he didn''t want to help. If it was not as expected by the other party, he would end up resentful. He truly regarded Lu Yanji as a friend. Lu Baizhou could only say that it was incidental. We didnt know each other very well, I just looked pleasing to the eye and didnt mind giving him a hand. Chapter 270 banquet Chapter 270 Banquet Qin Chi took Lu Yanji and Lu Baizhou home directly. Passing by a pastry shop, the two of them wanted to buy some pastries, saying that they couldn''t go to a guest house with empty hands. Qin Chi couldn''t defeat them. The three of them returned to Cuihua Hutong and had not yet arrived at the Yamen. Song Jin helps wash vegetables in the kitchen. Chef Feng and Mrs. Pan are both busy. There are a lot of dishes prepared today, some with strong flavors and some with light flavors, including stews and stir-fries. After all, there are many guests from all over the world, and it is difficult to adjust to all the different tastes. "Madam, the young master is back." Qin Ba came in first to remind him. Song Jin came out of the kitchen, "Are you bringing guests?" "Two people are here." Qin Ba came over first to report to Song Jin. Song Jin said: "Let Uncle Li help you make a pot of tea, and I won''t show up." When a husband entertains male guests, the wife needs to avoid suspicion. In the past, Qin Chi rarely entertained guests at home, so this time it was probably because it was inconvenient to entertain guests outside. Qin Ba responded and went to inform Old Uncle Li. Song Jin asked the cook and others to move faster. The guests were probably almost here. The tempting aroma of food filled the kitchen, and the front yard became lively. Movements could be heard in the kitchen. It should be officials from the Hanlin Academy. "Madam, aren''t you curious and come over to take a look?" The cook standing at the stove joked. Song Jin''s smile continued, "I have long passed the age of curiosity, and I will not do anything that would embarrass my husband." "Madam is so virtuous. It is a blessing for the master to marry you." Chef Feng said flatteringly. Song Jin smiled and said nothing. What people say may not necessarily be their true thoughts. But so what? Song Jin looked at the dishes prepared for lunch, and it could be said that he had spent a lot of money on them. There are more than ten major dishes such as shrimps with pepper vinegar, roast goose, braised pig''s trotters, fried eel and white-cut chicken, which can be paired with a few vegetables and staple foods. Drinks are also ready. The banquet is held in the hall. Just wait for the guests to arrive before the table can be served. Lao Li Tou and Qin Ba came over and said, "Madam, the food is ready to be served." "Okay, you all can take it." Song Jin pointed to the large table in the kitchen that was full of dishes. Except for a few cold dishes, most of them were still steaming. Old Li Tou and Qin Ba started serving the dishes. Mrs. Pan and Chef Feng also went to serve the food, but Song Jin stayed in the kitchen to watch over it to prevent a wild cat from stealing food. All the dishes waiting for the guests are served. The others were finally at ease. Chef Feng and Mrs. Pan started cleaning the kitchen again. Song Jin''s stomach was also full of hunger, "Don''t be busy now. You are already hungry. Eat before you get busy." There are dishes left in the kitchen. I deliberately overcooked some of the dishes and left them behind. When Chef Feng and Mrs. Pan saw the sumptuous dishes on the table, they didn''t dare to move their chopsticks. "These, ma''am, can we eat these?" Mrs. Pan couldn''t believe it. Chef Feng was also a little uneasy, "Why don''t you put it in the pot to warm until the master and his wife have dinner?" "No, just leave it for us to eat." Song Jin served himself a bowl of rice, picked up a piece of roast goose and ate it, and urged them to eat as well. Today was a special situation and she didn''t plan to eat alone. Join everyone directly in the kitchen. Qin Qi and Qin Ba also came over, each serving rice and vegetables. Qin Ba first served the rice, then a bowl of vegetables and put it in the pot to warm, "Uncle Li is waiting in the hall, I will leave some food for him." Qin Qi also filled up a large bowl of rice and some delicious dishes, saying it was for Old Man Hong. Song Jin had no objection to this, "When you''ve finished it, eat it quickly." "Don''t worry, madam, we won''t be hungry, hehe." Qin Ba took a clean bowl, filled himself with rice, picked up a piece of braised pig''s trotters, and bit into it, his face full of satisfaction, "It''s so fragrant. After smelling the fragrance all morning, Im almost starved for it. Song Jin couldn''t help but smile. Qin Qi, who came back quickly, kicked Qin Ba when Song Jin couldn''t see him, "Get out of the way, block me." "It''s Xiaoqi, come and eat it, it''s delicious." Qin Ba clicked his tongue and praised, "Ms. Feng''s cooking is so good. It is indeed a craft passed down from the royal chef''s ancestors." Chef Feng was embarrassed to be praised. Speaking of this is another sad story. But Chef Feng rarely mentioned it to others. It was precisely because of this skill that her family lured wolves into the house and ended up being betrayed by her husband. Mrs. Pan wiped her tears while eating. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! In most of her life, she had never eaten such good food. However, she was afraid that she would suffer from diarrhoea, so she ate in the corner away from them. However, Qin Qi still noticed it. I didn''t say anything when I saw him, I could only say that I was speechless. Song Jin was never stingy when it came to food. When Chef Feng and Mrs. Pan came to Qin''s house, Song Jin never treated them badly. Compared with when they first bought them, they had obviously gained weight and looked several years younger. Eating in the kitchen is not as good as socializing in the hall. Eating while socializing is the slowest. Everyone at Song Jin''s side was full, but the hall was bustling. Before leaving the kitchen, Song Jin ordered Chef Feng: "Cook a pot of hangover soup and serve it to the table after all the adults have finished eating." "Okay, ma''am." Chef Feng responded and immediately went to prepare. Song Jin walked out of the kitchen, avoided the hall and went back to the backyard. From Qin Ba''s mouth, I learned that the colleagues who came this time were not all members of the Hanlin Academy. Some people declined on the pretext that they had something to do. As to whether it is true or false, that is unknown. As soon as he returned to the room and washed his face, Qin Qi hurried over and said, "Madam, Miss Xiaoxi is here to see you." "How did she come?" Song Jin was surprised. Qin Qi said: "It doesn''t look like a visit, more like a visit." "Coming to visit?" Song Jin didn''t respond. Qin Qi reminded: "Madam, I forgot, Liu Jianfang and Liu Ji live in Cuihua Hutong, and Xiao Xi is her dowry maid. Her home is not far from ours, only three families apart." Such a close distance. To exaggerate, its just a few steps away. Are you just here to visit? Song Jin thought of Qin Chi entertaining guests in the hall, so she said to Qin Qi: "Invite her to the backyard." Qin Qiying left in a hurry afterwards. Not long after, Xiao Xi was brought in. Xiao Xi looked steady, and it was not difficult to see her secretly looking left and right as she walked over. Song Jin''s clothes are very simple. Xiao Xi''s face lit up with joy when she saw her, "It''s a good chance to meet Mrs. Qin. I have free time today, so I wanted to come to your house for a visit, but I didn''t expect that your family is having a treat." "Neighbors, what are you talking about? Miss Xiao Xi can come whenever she wants." Song Jin pulled Xiao Xi into a teahouse. Qin Qi had already made a pot of tea and served a plate of pastries, which Lu Yanji and the others bought. Xiao Xi ate a piece of pastry and reminded her kindly: "You are the wife of an official now, why don''t you change into nice clothes? If others see you, they won''t take it lightly." "Hey, how can this be used at home? What a waste of money." Song Jin smiled softly, her smile was pure and simple. Seeing that she had become an official''s wife, she did not raise her eyebrows, which made Xiao Xi feel much more relaxed. Xiao Xi glanced at the door again and asked in a low voice: "I heard that your husband-in-law was promoted on the first day he took office?" Coming! Here comes the inquirer. Song Jin was not happy when he heard this, but said worriedly: "I would rather he not be promoted to this official position. My husband-in-law said that he got it in exchange for several dangers. I don''t know what that means." Xiao Xi rolled her eyes. Could it be something about the Yuan family? Chapter 271 The future is promising Chapter 271 The future is promising Xiao Xi stayed for less than half an hour and then said goodbye. Song Jin asked Qin Qi to send her out. Go back to the small tea room next to the processing room in the backyard. The small tea room is specially separated. The space in the room is not large, with desks, bookshelves and a small carved square coffee table, and nothing else. The small teahouse is Song Jin''s territory, and others are generally not allowed to enter. Song Jin did all the cleaning himself. After Xiao Xi left. Song Jin came to the small tea room. Next to the window hangs a small cloth bag. He took off the bag and opened it. Inside were some bamboo tubes the size of a finger. Song Jin twisted the bamboo tube a few times and immediately opened one end and saw the note stuffed in the hollow inside. The note is rolled up. It opens to a dense collection of small print. These are the messages sent from all over. More than 90% of it is information about the Yang family, Liu family and Liu family. After she opened them one by one and read them, she threw the notes into the brazier. Then record the key information into the book. However, the recording method in the booklet is probably only understandable by her. "Tuk-tuk." Someone knocked gently on the door. Song Jin asked: "Who?" "Madam, it''s me, Ah Qi." Qin Qi''s voice sounded outside, "The banquet in the front yard is over. The young master is seeing off guests. My subordinates came to say something to you." "Oh, got it." Song Jin opened a small bamboo tube and said, "Let Uncle Li look at my husband. If my husband feels uncomfortable, remember to ask Doctor Jing to come over. I have some things to do here, so I''ll go there after I''m done." "good." Qin Qi glanced at the closed door doubtfully. But he had no intention of exploring and went to the front yard instead. The food and wine in the front yard are finished. A group of people also want to go back to the Hanlin Academy. Qin Chi sent everyone out. Lu Yanji and Lu Baizhou followed to see them off. Both of them looked happy, and it was obvious that they had gained something from the meal. When there were only three people left, Qin Chi asked jokingly: "How is it? Is there anything gained?" "I have benefited a lot, thank you and pray for peace." Lu Yanji bowed to Qin Chi and thanked him. Lu Baizhou on the side also thanked him: "I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. If there is anything I can do to help you in the future, please feel free to ask, Brother Qi''an." Qin Chi said a few words modestly and asked them whether they wanted to go back to the inn or stay here to rest. Both of them said they wouldn''t bother them anymore and asked to go back to the inn. Qin Chi called Lao Huo and drove the two of them back in a carriage. Now that the carriage was far away, he entered the house again. The door was closed by Old Man Hong. Old Man Hong asked with concern: "Is the young master drunk?" "All I drink is cold water." It''s easy for Qin Chi to stop drinking at home. He can just ask the person pouring the wine to replace it with water. "My lady said, I can stop drinking if I don''t want to. She said it''s harmful to the body." This is very common. He said it in a normal way. Old Man Hong heard something strange, so he simply changed the subject: "The Ministry of Rites hasn''t sent over the official uniforms yet. Sir, do you think there will be any accidents with this promotion?" "Who dares to go against His Majesty? Aren''t you going against Your Majesty by making small moves on the court uniform?" Qin Chi walked inside while talking, and went directly to the study. As he sat down, he rubbed his brow. After being busy during this period, to be honest, it is indeed a bit tiring. There was banging banging outside, and someone knocked on the door. Old man Hong went to open a crack in the door. When he saw an official knocking on the door and an official from the Ministry of Rites not far away, he immediately pretended to be an ordinary old man. "Who are you looking for?" Old Man Hong asked in a humble tone. The official outside said loudly: "It''s the Ministry of Rites who are here to give Mr. Qin his crown and uniform. Could you please go and report it?" Old Man Hong opened the door, "The master has given instructions earlier, please come in, please." The others entered the courtyard. Qin Chi quickly came out of the study after receiving the news. He greeted the three of them with a smile. The person who came was an official from the Ministry of Etiquette. Accompanying him were two servants. A policeman leads the way, and a policeman holds the crown and uniform in his hand. The official of the Ministry of Etiquette was just an errand boy, and his rank was not as high as Qin Chi''s. When he saw Qin Chi, his attitude was neither humble nor overbearing. He first saluted and then handed over step by step, without any intention of embarrassment. Qin Chi left the three of them to drink some tea. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! I also prepared three red envelopes, one large and two small. Then send the three people away. The three people walked out of the Qin family gate. One of the guards looked back, pinched the thick red seal in his hand, and said cheerfully: "This Qin Zhuangyuan has a very good temper. There are so many rumors about him from the outside world. I thought he would look down on us." "Yes, I drank the tea poured by the Number One Scholar, and I will never regret it until I die." Another officer is still thinking about the tea just now, and will have a good time with his brothers when he gets back. Officials from the Ministry of Etiquette walking in the front. In fact, the mood is quite complicated. He snatched this job because he wanted to see Qin Zhuangyuan''s style. This time, isnt he just an ordinary person? At most, his appearance is more outstanding and his temperament is a little better than that of the scholars of the same period. But when he heard what the two police officers behind him said, he was shocked to realize the difference. "Yes, this year''s new top scorer is very different." The official from the Ministry of Rites said, looking at the sky above the Imperial City. The two people behind him listened. One of the guards said: "Sir, what''s unusual about this?" "Everywhere is extraordinary." The official from the Ministry of Rites replied perfunctorily. When he returned to the Ministry of Etiquette, he was immediately surrounded by a group of colleagues. "I met you in person, how was it?" "How do you feel? Is it awesome?" "I didn''t steal it from you. Otherwise, I would really like to see if our new top pick is so capable. He even got promoted twice on the day he took office." Most of these speakers are officials below the seventh rank. The transferred official from the Ministry of Rites said: "It''s very different." "We all know he is different, aren''t you talking nonsense?" The person who heard it was not satisfied. Someone next to me also said: "If you say it, you haven''t said it yet. At least you have to talk about it in detail." The official of the Ministry of Etiquette sat down. Someone immediately poured him a cup of tea. He took a sip of tea and said, "We were also Jinshi students back then. We spent a lot of effort to get an official position in the Ministry of Rites. I thought I could make great achievements from now on. However, after so many years, not only did I fail to find a future, my ambition and pride were all wiped out by reality..." As soon as these words came out. There was a sudden silence. This is reality, but it is a reality that no one wants to admit or face. Some people were annoyed and said, "I asked you to talk about Qin Qi''an, but I didn''t make you feel anything." "I just feel emotional." The official of the Ministry of Rites drank the tea in one gulp, feeling a surge of energy, and said in a rare sour voice, "When I first met this person, I didn''t think he was anything special. After leaving the gate of Qin Mansion, I heard As for the two officers, I was shocked to realize that, ahem, he didnt have the arrogance we had when we first entered the officialdom. After coughing twice more, he continued: "As soon as I entered the official career, I have already integrated into the environment. I am very mature and stable." It''s quite scary. The future is promising! After listening to his words, the surroundings became quiet. Chapter 272 The news of winning the top prize spread back to Huizhou Chapter 272: The news of the top prize spreads back to Huizhou Wait for the people from the Ministry of Etiquette to leave. Qin Ba began to inspect the uniforms placed in the hall. He found no abnormalities and handed them over to Old Li Tou for another inspection. Only then did Qin Chi try it on. If the size doesn''t fit, it can be modified. On the side are the official seal and dental plaque. The tooth card is an ivory waist card, with a vertical rectangular shape and a curved edge at the top. The upper part of the card is engraved with a Ruyi cloud pattern and has a hole in the middle to tie it with a rope. On one side of the tooth plate is the word "", which refers to a civil official. On the other side, there are four lines of inscriptions engraved on it, which read: "The official in charge of court will wear this plate. Those who do not have the plate will be guilty according to the law. The borrower and the borrower are guilty of the same crime." No need for Jing. The tooth tag is used to prove identity and should be used to enter and exit the palace to prevent forgery. "Master, are you going to go to court tomorrow? I heard that tomorrow is the court meeting." Old Li Tou said happily. Qin Chi glanced at him and said, "Official positions in the Hanlin Academy do not require going to court." As soon as these words came out, Lao Litou was stunned. Qin Chi felt guilty towards Song Jin for so many years. She had promised to help him find his family, but now he couldn''t find them. In the end, she went to Fuzhou to look for them. Qin Chi asked again: "Hasn''t the mastermind behind that group of bandits been found out yet?" "We''re catching the hidden son of the bandit leader. Once we find him, we''ll pry open his mouth." The bandit leader pointed by Old Li was the leader of the group of bandits who targeted Song Jin on the day the champion was paraded through the streets. The man had a very tough mouth. No matter how hard he was tortured, he didn''t open his mouth, and insisted to death that he was a member of the Yuan family. They dug out from the mouths of other thieves that the man had a concubine who gave birth to a son for him. Qin Chi said coldly: "Keep digging deeper, I don''t believe you can''t find anything useful." "yes!" Old Li Tou responded. In the following days, Qin Chi became busy, often leaving early and returning late, and would take official documents home to process until late at night. Song Jin didn''t ask much about this. Only do your job well. Sometimes she would feel that there were not enough manpower at home, so letting the two secret guards Qin Qi and Qin Ba do the work of the maids and servants at home, she always felt that they were overqualified and underused. But I mentioned it to Qin Chi. Qin Chi said it was not appropriate to add more people to the family. With two masters and seven servants to serve him, he was already very conspicuous. Besides, he was from a poor family, almost no one would believe him. Song Jin thought for a while and gave up temporarily. Time passed peacefully for more than half a month. The news that Qin Chi won the first prize has reached Huizhou. The new prefect of Huizhou was extremely excited. This was his political achievement when he was the prefect. During his tenure, he had a number one scholar, three yuan and six titles. He was a famous figure in history. He was so happy that he rushed to Yi County that day to deliver the good news in person. The three brothers, Qin Lao and Qin, who received the news in advance, rushed back to Qinjiagou from Hongcun Town early. Don''t talk about the old Qin family. The whole Qinjiagou was boiling. Villages from all over the country saw it, and their eyes turned red with envy. They all said that Qinjiagou was a geomantic treasure, and that the Qin family''s ancestral tomb must be smoking. There are some naughty children. I really went to visit the Qin familys ancestral grave. "Qin''s luck is so good!" "In the next few days, I''ll go find a Feng Shui master to take a look at our ancestral graves to see if they''re buried properly." "If you find something that works, remember to introduce it to me. Of the three people in my family who are studying, none of them succeeded." "That''s right, two people are studying, one is a scholar and the other is a champion. Let alone the champion in our family, it would be a blessing to have a scholar." There are all kinds of talkers out there. Everyone envies the old Qin family. Boss Qin''s family is fine, but there are more people coming to the door every day. However, those who want to give gifts are declined one by one. At the same time, Boss Qin has spread the word to the outside world, saying that his son will not accept heavy gifts. Please be polite. The intention is fulfilled. Sure enough, it was just like the last time he won the exam. How many gifts are received, how many gifts are returned in return. Someone originally wanted to find another way and send it to Old Man Qin. Later, someone suggested that the Qin family had been divided, so he gave up. Qin Mingsong returned after failing the exam. His reputation is not as good as before, and his life was not as satisfactory as before. This time, thanks to Qin Chi''s favor, his popularity became much better, and more invitations were sent to him. Some people who are well-informed already know that Qin Chi has been promoted two levels in a row and is now a bachelor''s degree student at the Hanlin Academy. Let Qin Mingsong take advantage of it. It''s something Qin Chi can''t control. But when I thought about it, I didnt care. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! In today''s society, family is very important. It emphasizes the importance of joining the same family, and the emphasis is on both prosperity and loss. There is also a crime of joining together in the law. For example, confiscation of family members, genocide or exile. Qin Chi was an official in the imperial court. If he committed a serious crime and needed to confiscate his family and exterminate his clan, Qin Mingsong would not be able to escape, including the Qinjiagou clan members. There is some light that is really not that easy to touch. According to Qin Chi''s current plan, he may not know who will be implicated in the future. The old residence of the Qin family. It is different from the excitement outside. It''s been a flurry of activity all day long. Lao Liu and Song Xiu were at odds with Mai Mang, causing endless trouble. Ever since Qin Mingsong failed to pass the exam, Song Xiu''s expectations for several years have been shattered. Unexpectedly, old Liu came to make trouble at this time, which happened to be Song Xiu''s outlet. Mr. Liu couldn''t bear the shock when he learned that his son had failed the exam. He passed out that day! The imperial edict that Mr. Liu had been looking forward to for most of his life was gone all of a sudden. Can he not feel dizzy? Even if her eldest grandson wins the first prize, she won''t be able to cure her, because she separated the people early, and she may have benefited from it, but she will only be known as the grandma of the first prize. Mrs. Liu didn''t dare to think about the fact that it would take another three years to wait for her son''s next scientific examination. At this age, is there still hope? Old Mrs. Liu lay in bed all day and sighed, specifying that Song Xiu should come to the bedside to serve her. If he was unhappy, he would point his finger at Song Xiu''s nose and scold, "My son will fail the exam because he marries you, a loser!" "Mother-in-law, just talk about it at home. Don''t talk about it outside. It will be embarrassing." Song Xiu said angrily. Mrs. Liu asked Song Xiu to take care of her. Song Xiu, the daughter-in-law, also came here, but she didn''t really take care of her. All the people doing the work were her maids. Song Xiu cracked the melon seeds and spit out the skin, "Who outside doesn''t know now that it was the old Qin family that brought me down? My sister and I are both blessed girls. Look what kind of life I have lived? My sister has become the number one scholar. Madam, I am still a useless lady." Old Liu originally pointed at Song Xiu and scolded him, but was extremely angry at Song Xiu''s words. Song Xiu didn''t care at all, and continued while cracking melon seeds: "I suspect that my mother-in-law is the star of the family. Think about how lucky my sister is after the separation of the family. She even survived a sick man who should have died long ago." For a long time, oh, not only, Dafang should have died..." "You are the one who is dead!" Old Mrs. Liu glared at Song Xiu angrily, "Little whore, if you talk nonsense again, I''ll tear your mouth apart." "laugh!" Song Xiu sneered, rolled up his sleeves and shouted, "If you have the ability, get up and tear it up, or I will let you change your surname to Song." As soon as these words came out, Old Liu was so angry that he covered his chest and rolled his eyes. Song Xiu has a big heart. He sat down again and cracked melon seeds. The old guy has a tough life and won''t die for a while. On the contrary, the little maid was almost scared to tears... Chapter 273 The fig leaf was lifted in front of my face Chapter 273 The fig leaf was lifted in front of everyone "Bang!" The door was pushed open forcefully. The people in the room were shocked. Song Xiu patted her chest, looked back at the door, and saw Qin Mingsong walking into the house with a gloomy face. "Song Xiu! Is this how you serve my mother?" Qin Mingsong asked angrily. "What else can we do otherwise? There will be less food for her, or less food for her to drink?" Song Xiu did not feel guilty at all about being caught. What''s the matter with the outside room? A woman with a sharp heart can''t bear to take her home to be **** by an old witch, so do I deserve to be treated like this?" The maid is giving old Liu a favor. The couple are at odds here. Qin Mingsong was furious, "What''s your attitude?" "What have you done? Don''t you have something in mind? It doesn''t even make me want to give up on you. I just have to endure it for the sake of a better life." Song Xiu dared to say anything now. Ever since Qin Mingsong failed the ranking, Song Xiu''s filter on him was completely shattered. He wanted her to please Qin Mingsong. At least Qin Mingsong wants her to live well! But what kind of life did he let her live? To say how much Song Xiu likes Qin Mingsong, there is really no one. From the beginning, she married Qin Mingsong because she wanted to be an official wife. Qin Mingsong looked bad when he heard this. Song Xiu''s attitude was very arrogant. I no longer have any respect for him as a husband. Is this looking down on him? Song Xiu laughed sarcastically and said with a bit of yin and yang: "Not satisfied with me serving my mother-in-law, I took Bitch Bai back here again. This will save you from being homeless for three days. Let me guess, it''s not that you don''t want to, but that Bai is not happy. I''ll wait until you win the prize one day. Jinshi, I have to give up my position as the main wife. Oh bitch, the so-called deep friendship is just for sale. I really think that **** likes you so much." Qin Mingsong was filled with shame and anger. A fig leaf was lifted in front of someone, and he wanted to kill Song Xiu on the spot. Qin Mingsong didn''t wait for a counterattack. A pillow was thrown at Song Xiu! Mrs. Liu finally regained her breath and attacked Song Xiu, "You little bitch, get out of here! I don''t need you to serve me anymore!" "You could have just said no earlier." Song Xiu called the maid, "Hualu, I said you don''t have to wait on me anymore. Come with me." When going out. Song Xiu deliberately bumped Qin Mingsong with his shoulder, then walked out while pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, "There is no affectionate man in this world. It''s just a matter of weighing the pros and cons, huh." Wait for the day when Bai Daru is gone. I''m afraid the fate of the white **** will be worse than hers. Song Xiu strode out of the door. Behind me, Old Mrs. Liu from the house could be heard shouting angrily: "Si''er, divorce this little whore! You must divorce her!" "Mom, calm down." Qin Mingsong reminded in a low voice. Song Xiu pretended not to hear and left with Hualu. When gone. Coral said worriedly: "It will do no good for my wife to anger the master. He is your future support." "Reliance? Ha!" Song Xiu didn''t want to admit that she regretted it, "Only when your husband loves you can you rely on him. Now look at what I married." After a trip to the capital and seeing Qin Chi winning the first prize, Song Xiu felt irritated when he saw Qin Mingsong again and couldn''t help but want to make fun of him, not to mention the old Liu who often made trouble. Song Xiu wanted to kill her several times. After being reborn, Song Jin still lived better than her. Song Xiu didn''t believe in fate before, but now she does. Sometimes she couldn''t help but wonder if she was destined to fail? Otherwise, Qin Mingsong was admitted to Jinshi in his previous life, so why would he fail in this life? There is also Qin Chi, a sick young man. A person who should have died of an illness long ago has survived for a few more years! Lets not mention the missing boss Qin, lets take Li as an example. At this time in the previous life, the grass on Li''s grave was growing tall. Since marrying Song Jin, the fate of Dafang and his family has changed against the will of heaven. Song Jin married a Jinshi in his previous life. This life is even more outrageous, the man I married won the top prize! Song Jin had no children in her previous life, but now her children are studying! The more Song Xiu thought about it, the more irritable he became. The busier it was outside, the more annoyed she became. Song Jin is always the one with the best scenery! No matter how cloudy the old house is. The big house is receiving a letter from Shuntian Mansion, written by Song Jin. In the letter, Song Jin mentioned Qin Chi''s promotion. Boss Qin was very happy to learn that he hugged his little granddaughter and tossed her around again and again, "Niuniu, your father has become successful. From now on, my Niuniu will be the young lady of the official family." "What are you happy about?" Li is not as optimistic as Boss Qin. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! She couldn''t believe that he was promoted so quickly and nothing happened. Li warned: "Winning the number one scholar is conspicuous enough. If you get promoted, you will be very lucky. You don''t need to mention it to others. The clan leaders also said that they will build the number one scholar archway. This matter will wait until Da Lang and others return home in glory." Lets talk again. Such a big thing. Qin Chi must return to his hometown to worship his ancestors. But he did not return to Huizhou and chose to enter the Hanlin Academy in advance. The matter of ancestor worship and archway, I am not here, so I can only put it on hold for now. Li took up his pen to write a reply. Boss Qin occasionally said a few words on the side, and asked the younger granddaughter to say something as well, and Li wrote it in the letter. As for the eldest grandson, he went to a private school. Write down everything that happened at home in Huizhou in the letter. The family letter mentioned that Song Xiu fell ill when he arrived in the capital. Therefore, when replying to the letter, Mrs. Li specifically mentioned that Song Xiu had recovered, and also mentioned that Mrs. Liu fell ill when she heard that Qin Mingsong failed the exam. Finally, I would like to add that everything is well at home. Lets talk about the capital. Song Jin looked at Qin Chi who was tired and returned home. Silently, he went to the tea room and made him a cup of ginseng tea. Qin Chi picked up the ginseng tea and took a sip, "Is everything okay at home?" "It''s just me, what''s wrong with that?" Song Jin smiled and asked, "My husband, is it tiring to be an official?" Seeing her worried eyes, Qin Chi felt slightly warm in his heart, "It''s not difficult to do things in the yamen, but dealing with colleagues is difficult. That''s the most tiring. It''s just starting now, it will get better after a while." Can intrigues be avoided? Song Jin went out for a trip and came back with an extra bag of things. Wrapped in paper, this wrapping method is somewhat similar to wrapping medicinal materials. Qin Chi took it and asked, "Medicine?" "You''ll know it once you smell it." Song Jin gave it a try. Qin Chi took it to the tip of his nose and smelled it, his eyes lit up, "Is it pepper?" "Yes, last time Xing Lun came to Beijing with his fleet, he brought a batch of pepper and sappan wood. I left some for you to open up contacts." Song Jin knew that the price of pepper and sappan wood was much higher than that of gold. The imperial court used them to pay salaries to officials. A pound of pepper was worth as much as 100 guan, and sappan wood was worth 50 guan. Even so, demand still exceeds supply. Not to mention that Qin Chi opened a trading company, it was not easy to get exotic spices such as pepper and sappanwood. Qin Chi smiled and said: "With my wife''s help, my official career will definitely be smooth in the future." "People who are in the officialdom, don''t save money if you can solve it with money. If you don''t have enough, you can come to me." Song Jin gave a rare promise. Qin Chi smiled even more happily. The fatigue from before was swept away, as if he had been injected with chicken blood. Chapter 274 Someone is making things difficult for Qin Chi Chapter 274 Someone is making things difficult for Qin Chi The next day. Qin Chi carried half a pound of pepper in his arms and went to see his immediate superior, Zhang Yuan, the former Bachelor Yan. Zhang Zhangyuan was very happy to get the pepper, and then asked Qin Chi to come to him if he didn''t understand anything in the future. During the period when Qin Chi took office, people often gave him obstacles. The attendant, Mao Shaojie, was the one who had the most fun thanks to Yuan Shangshu''s backing. As Mao Shaojie''s superior officer, Qin Chi should have outshined Mao Shaojie, but the Hanlin Academy is a place where top picks and top picks gather, and it pays special attention to qualifications. After all, it is unconvincing for Qin Chi to sit on the position of scholar at such a young age. Mao Shaojie either deliberately delayed or deliberately made mistakes in the things Qin Chi had ordered several times. These methods were somewhat concealed at first. After a month, Qin Chi swallowed his anger and tested Qin Chi''s bottom line step by step, almost making the methods obvious. On the surface. For example, today, a transcribed historical interpretation. Mao Shaojie deliberately copied two sentences wrong. Qin Chi discovered it during the inspection and calmly reminded: "Master Mao, there are errors in this classic. Can you copy it again? This article will be sent to Wenyuan Pavilion tomorrow morning." "Sir, I have to go to the office." Mao Shaojie answered neither yin nor yang. Qin Chi added: "This is your responsibility." "I''m not the only one who is studying at the Hanlin Academy. If you are in a hurry, you can go find Wen Shidu." Mao Shaojie deliberately chose to copy the wrong classics and history to Qin Chi during his time at the Yamen. It would be best if Qin Chi didn''t discover the mistake. If he found out, he could only work overtime and copy again according to Qin Chi''s previous practice of swallowing his anger. Tomorrow the article will be sent to Wenyuan Pavilion. No matter if there is an error or delay, the superiors will first look to Qin Chi for accountability. Qin Chi knew that Mao Shaojie did it on purpose. Making such a fuss every day is just waiting for him to make a mistake. As long as he makes mistakes in his work, his superiors will have reason to remove him from his official position or return him to the position of editor. There are so many people who are unhappy with Qin Chi. It was a month after the birth. Qin Chi was absolutely not wrong at all. Mao Shaojie insinuated: "If you don''t have the ability, resign as soon as possible. A ignorant boy, does he think being an official is a child''s game?" After saying that, the person strode away. Qin Chi looked calm, picked up the erroneous scriptures, corrected the mistakes first, and then started to polish the ink. Someone came over and asked, "Brother Qi''an, what are you doing?" "Seize the time and copy again." Qin Chi started copying without raising his head. He murmured as he copied, "It''s a pity that I have to come home late again tonight. I thought I could go home earlier to have dinner with my wife." Being bullied. It cannot remain unknown. You need to calmly let everyone know that the other person is not a human being, and then let everyone feel: I am the weak one and the most innocent. Someone watching the show did not mind the seriousness of the matter, and advised him with good intentions: "Qi''an, it''s not good to just swallow your anger. He has endured it time and time again. Now he dares to push it further. He knows that this scripture is for His Majesty''s use, so he can''t do it." If you dare to use this to make things difficult for others, you must be tough and show your dignity as a superior and punish him severely." "Forget it, I have no backer." Qin Chi''s tone was very helpless. These words choked the others. After all, there are only a few people who have backers in the Hanlin Academy. People who also had no background felt some inexplicable feelings when they heard these words, and they also shared the same hatred and hatred. Some people said angrily: "Mao Shaojie only dares to cause trouble for you because he has Yuan Shangshu''s back." "Speaking of the Yuan family, I heard something last night. Mrs. Yuan committed suicide in prison." A colleague said softly. Another person was surprised, "You can still get dignity even if you commit suicide. When you go to the execution ground, your head will be removed, and now there is still a whole body." The relationship between Yuan Shangshu and Qin Chi was forged, and no one thought that Qin Chi could go far in the officialdom. Most people''s jealousy towards him has now turned into sympathy. There were people making bets secretly on when Qin Chi would leave the Hanlin Academy. The Yuan family is a giant to Qin Chi. So everyone seems to be concerned about Qin Chi. There are few colleagues who really want to help him. No one dares to dip into this muddy water. After leaving the Yamen, everyone left one after another. Qin Chi was still writing at his desk, and the occasional cough echoed in the hall. "Qin Qian?" A voice sounded from behind. Qin Chi paused with his pen tip, and soon finished writing. Then he put the pen aside, got up and walked around the desk, bowed to the visitor, and said humbly: "I have seen Yan Zhangyuan." "You''ve already gone to the office, why haven''t you left yet?" Master Yan walked over and glanced at the desk, "Copying scriptures and history?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Seeing Qin Chi, he stopped talking. Director Yan lowered his head and looked at the selected passages from classics and history on the table, "Are you going to send them to Wenyuan Pavilion tomorrow morning?" Then he saw the erroneous manuscript lying conspicuously aside. Mao Shaojie''s handwriting was familiar to him, so he simply picked it up and read it over, plus Qin Chi had copied half of the manuscript. There was no need for Qin Chi to speak. Commander Yan then remembered what was going on, but he still asked: "Tell me what''s going on?" "In front of the lower office, Shi Mao made mistakes when reading the submitted article. The lower official could not send the wrong manuscript to Wenyuan Pavilion, so he copied the correct one himself." Because Mao Shaojie and others caused trouble, Qin Chi did the work of at least two or three people during this period. Many people know this, including Yan Zhangyuan. I dont know how many people above know this. Mao Shaojie is also stupid. Choosing this time to make things difficult for Qin Chi is simply giving Qin Chi a chance to show off. Mao Shaojie is the foil. Qin Chi is really too good. With one talent that is as good as three, it is obvious to all. "There is no need to arrange work for him in the future. Let Wen Shidu work harder. If Wen Shidu can''t do it, you can choose a new person to take over." Yan Zhangyuan immediately ordered. Qin Chi pretended to hesitate and said, "Is this good? Will he say that I am excluding him?" "If he makes trouble, let him come to me. He doesn''t even pay attention to the scriptures and history sent to the emperor. It''s clear that he doesn''t take me as the leader in his eyes." Director Yan didn''t like Mao Shaojie before. Not much ability, but a lot of faults. With Yan Xuexue''s words, Qin Chi felt that the time was almost here. In the dormitory at night. Qin Chi mentioned this matter to Song Jin, "Headmaster Yan will say this today, my wife''s pepper accounted for most of the credit." "What nonsense?" Song Jin was a little amused when he heard this, "My husband has been laying the groundwork for so long, and it''s not in vain. The time has come. I guess someone above is paying attention to my husband, and Chief Yan is worried that if he doesn''t stop him, Mao will expose the big picture." When the basket comes, he will be disgraced." A smile appeared in Qin Chi''s eyes, "My lady is still thinking deeply." "Glib." Song Jin didn''t believe he didn''t think of it. That little bit of pepper can only bring the distance closer. It is impossible for Yan Zhangyuan to fall towards Qin Chi. Zhang Yuan Yan will side with Qin Chi today, and it is most likely a decision made after weighing the pros and cons. Otherwise, those who wanted to help Qin Chi would not have waited until now. Chapter 275 royal guard Chapter 275 The Royal Guards As a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, you have a great chance to meet the emperor. But after taking office for so long, the emperor seemed to have forgotten Qin Chi and never summoned him. Otherwise, Mao Shaojie wouldn''t do it openly. Obviously he wanted to anger Qin Chi. As long as people are angry, mistakes are easy to make. Mao Shaojie had already agreed with Yuan Shangshu that whenever Qin Chi made mistakes in official affairs, someone would read Qin Chi''s book and bring Qin Chi''s unusual promotion to the court for discussion. At that time, the minister will be able to bring Qin Chi back to his original shape on the grounds that Qin Chi is young and not qualified for the job. Who knows that Qin Chi is actually very calm. He conscientiously completed his duties and even did the things that his colleagues did to make things difficult for him. And he didn''t do any other small things that he shouldn''t do. "Someone will send you a message today." Song Jin handed the invitation sent by others to Qin Chi for review, "I saw it, it was a post from the Yang family. Lu Yanji and Lu Baizhou also sent messages, saying that they had been admitted to Shujishi." "I didn''t interfere with their exams." Qin Chi opened it and read the invitation. The invitation was sent by Yang Yingrong, and a flower viewing banquet was held. Qin Chi had no intention of going there, "I won''t be going to this banquet. I''ll let Uncle Li go back to the Yang Mansion. I just took office now, and it''s the busiest period. I shouldn''t have the energy to go to the banquet." "Okay, I know what to do." Song Jin as the first lady. There were quite a few invitations sent to her this month. Ninety-nine percent of them are people I dont know. Song Jinquan pushed it. Qin Chi''s way of entering officialdom was too high-profile. It was the right time to do things in a low-key manner. This low-key was not just to be honest, but to be low-key for outsiders to see. Go to any party. Revealing an ambitious attitude is more likely to attract people''s jealousy, and it also gives the people behind the scenes an opportunity to take action. The couple was about to undress and rest. "Sir, something is urgent." Outside, Qin Ba''s voice was deliberately lowered. Qin Chi put on his clothes again. When he walked to the outer room and opened the door, Qin Ba ducked into the room to report. "The son of the bandit leader was captured. The man gave a clue. As he followed the investigation, he found a courtyard belonging to a wealthy businessman. One of the spies who sneaked in was killed and one was injured. Qin Yi directly surrounded the courtyard. During the fight, a group of masters were attracted..." The most important thing is those "masters", the martial arts moves are the same as theirs! This is hard to judge! Was it someone from the royal family who attacked Song Jin on the day the champion was paraded through the streets? The fight attracted patrolling soldiers. The opponent quickly retreated, and Qin Yi also ordered to evacuate. Qin Yi took the two of them to chase him. We won''t know what the situation is until Qin Yi returns. Qin Chi''s expression was terrifyingly calm, "Are you sure he''s the same secret guard as you?" "Yes, sir, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that." One secret guard may see it wrong, but not everyone will see it wrong. The secret guards of Prince Rui''s Mansion were themselves from the royal secret guard camp. For example, Old Man Hong was one of the secret guards given to Prince Rui by the late emperor. Later, the secret guard camp built privately by the palace also used the royal training method. Isn''t it just a number? Qin Chi and others were shocked. Presumably the other party also has suspicions. Qin Chi went out for a trip and didn''t come back until late at night. As soon as he undressed and lay down on his side, Song Jin woke up and asked, "Mr., are you in trouble?" "Qin Yi and the others went to follow someone but got lost." Qin Chi went out to wait for them to come back. "They said they entered a house in Nancheng. No one came out after that. They sneaked in and found that there was no one inside. Qin Yi looked for it. But no secret passage was found." Song Jin listened quietly. Qin Chi said complicatedly: "The person who is malicious to you is probably from the royal family." Song Jin asked doubtfully, "I didn''t bother anyone in the royal family, and I never even met them. What good would it do to them if something happened to me? Isn''t it the prince who supports the Yuan family?" "The Yuan family sent a granddaughter to the palace." Qin Chi remembered this matter. Song Jin was speechless for a moment, "Why are you bringing this up? Could it be that the one in the palace is so old that he can still be an old man?" The concubine has not been pregnant for more than ten years. Someone suddenly got pregnant...even the emperor would probably wonder if he was a cuckold. Qin Chi couldn''t help laughing, "What are you thinking? I want to tell you that the Yuan family is a royalist party, and there is no so-called prince behind it. Yuan Shangshu followed the emperor when he was a boy." Emperor Ming Cheng would not send anyone to attack Song Jin. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! There are now only three adult princes left under Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. Prince, King Shou and King Lu. The prince is said to be in poor health. He has lived in the East Palace for many years and rarely shows up. King Lu fell off his horse in his early years and broke his legs. He was no longer eligible for the throne. King Shou did not want to make progress, and was addicted to music, chess, calligraphy and painting. He often recited poems and poems with literati, cooked tea around the stove, and talked about the past and the present, but he never cared about the affairs of the court. Not that no one suspected that King Shou was pretending. In fact, many people have tried, but all have failed. King Shou is in his thirties and has been pretending for so many years. Even if he is not a cripple, he has become a cripple. Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty had no expectations for his three sons and had long since set his sights on his grandchildren. The most outstanding one at present is Helian Mian, the eldest son of the emperor who was born to the Crown Princess. He often stays with Emperor Ming Cheng and is taught by him personally. Helianmian has already begun to contact the government. The power that his father and two imperial uncles had no access to when they were young, but his grandchildren have the opportunity to fight for. But there is really no such thing as a large number of royal guards protecting him. Helian Mian, who deserves the most attention, is surrounded by only four secret guards sent by the emperor. Qin Chi went through the person in his mind. Unfortunately, no suspect was found. Song Jin murmured to himself: "The prince''s reputation in the court is not high. He is so low-key that people almost forget his existence. I heard that he is still a medicine jar, but I don''t know whether it is true or not." "It''s true. He''s not sick, he was poisoned when he was a teenager." Qin Chi learned this information from He Lianpu. "The imperial doctor said that even if the poison is detoxified, it will severely damage his vitality and affect his life span." "Will he be the one who attacks me?" Song Jin thought that there was no prince in history who didn''t want to be the emperor, and it was possible that he wanted to cause trouble for the emperor. Qin Chi shook his head again, "He lives in the East Palace and lives under the surveillance of Jin Yiwei all day long. It''s not that I underestimate the prince. Under the eyes of Jin Yiwei, it is unlikely that the prince can do something small." The two of them were eliminated at once. The real murderer becomes more and more confusing. "Those who are not afraid of His Majesty and who are powerful will be the most likely candidates for Prince Rui''s Palace." Song Jin was suspicious, and the most suspicious person turned out to be one of his own. After listening to her analysis, Qin Chi was funny and angry. He hugged her into his arms and said, "I will let people continue to investigate this matter. It''s late at night. I can''t think about it anymore. Let''s go to bed first." "I''m in high spirits." My mind was thinking about things, and I had long since lost sleep. I just felt an enlarged handsome face approaching in the dim light, "Aren''t you sleepy? Then do something else..." "Well..." Chapter 276 Fengning Hutong Chapter 276 Fengning Hutong Song Jin woke up the next day. Qin Chi has already gone to the Hanlin Academy. After Song Jin washed up, had breakfast and went back to the room. Not long after, he changed into a man''s clothes and went out through the back door. Song Jin went to Jifang Pharmacy. The layout of the city has always been that the north is rich and the south is poor, the east is rich and the west is poor. Song Jin deliberately opened his shop in Xicheng. All people living in this area are common people. Ordinary people generally don''t come to see a doctor until they can''t bear it anymore. When they see a doctor, they have to pick and choose. Therefore, the profit of the shop is not high, unlike the medical clinic and pharmacy opened by the Liu family, which targets customers who are either rich or expensive. Opening a small pharmacy in Xicheng is inconspicuous. The shop is not very big. The advantage is that the courtyard behind the shop is spacious. Song Jin entered the medicine shop through the side door. "Young Patriarch, are you here?" Song Jitao is now the shopkeeper of Jifang Drug Store. The Song family branch in Wanping County is developing very well, supported by the supply of Song brocade. Song Huaiwang sent his son to be the shopkeeper of a small medicine shop, which meant he could make a lot of money but have little use for it. Song Jitao was actually obedient. In Wanping County, he is still a young master, but he just does whatever his father tells him to do. Fortunately, following Song Jin, the shopkeeper only did his job in front of others. "How is the business of the shop?" Song Jin asked casually. Song Jitao responded: "Better than expected." "That''s good, thank you for your hard work." Song Jin responded with a smile. If you lose money, you will lose money. If you don''t mention it, you will lose money. When they arrived in the living room, Song Jin asked in a low voice: "Did there be any excitement in the West City last night?" Song Jitao glanced at the door. Seeing that there was no outsider, he replied in a low voice: "What happened in Jinhai Hutong, I heard that there was a fight at night, which alerted the troops of the five cities." Jinhai Hutong is in Dongcheng. The houses are well built and most of them are wealthy businessmen. Song Jin knew this. She wanted to ask something else. Qin Chi said that the people hiding in the wealthy merchant''s courtyard evacuated towards Xichengfang City and entered an old house in Fengning Hutong, and there was no trace of them after that. Fengning Hutong happens to be not far from Jifang Pharmacy. Song Jin inquired about this matter. Song Jitao was very familiar with the nearby area, "I heard that the house you mentioned is uninhabitable and is usually looked after by a concierge. It is said that the master is not in the capital." "What about the resident next door to him?" "Next door is an ordinary local family who has lived in Fengning Hutong for decades. The family on the left is surnamed Xiao, and they opened a tavern in Fangshi. The family on the right is surnamed Ding, and they have a noodle shop at the entrance of the alley. Spread." Song Jitao told what he knew. After Song Jin heard this, he found nothing unusual. Song Jitao asked: "Young patriarch, are these two families suspicious?" "On the day the No. 1 Scholar was paraded, someone wanted to do something against me. The people behind the scenes fled to the old house I just mentioned and disappeared. I guessed that there should be a secret passage in that house, but someone went to look at it last night and did not find the secret. Tao or mechanism." Song Jin did not regard him as an outsider. Since he asked, Song Jin told him. Song Jitao said: "Do you want me to have someone sneak into the house to check it out?" "No need. If I checked and said there isn''t one, then it means there really isn''t." Song Jin still knew something about the abilities of Qin Yi and others, at least he knew more than the people on his side. "What I suspect is that the neighboring people are not." House, but you said those two families are locals..." "I usually make people pay more attention." Song Jitao said immediately. Song Jin nodded, "You don''t have to do it deliberately, lest you alert the enemy and implicate the drug store. The people behind the scenes are not something we can compete with. We just know who the other party is." "Boy understands." Song Jitao became more cautious after hearing this. Song Jin repeatedly told them to be careful. To be honest, Song Jin didn''t have much hope for them. Just explain it to them and let them pay attention. "I heard that my boss is here?" Doctor Jing''s words came from outside. Song Jin looked at the door and signaled to Song Jitao that he could retreat. Song Jitao bent down, bowed, and went out through the side door. Just then the doctor hurried in. When Doctor Jing saw Song Jin, he was immediately overjoyed, "Madam, I heard that you can roast wine centipedes?" "What''s the matter?" Song Jin was surprised, "This wine centipede is not rare, it should be sold outside." "Who says it''s not rare anymore?" Doctor Jing wanted to roll his eyes at her, "Dry centipedes are not rare, but high-quality wine centipedes are rare. I have never seen them in the capital for so long and after visiting so many medicine shops." "It shouldn''t be." Song Jin didn''t believe it, "Don''t come here to trick me. Where is the capital? Good things from all over the world are gathered here." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Doctor Jing felt guilty, stroked his beard and said, "I have never seen anyone cook better than you." This is the best I''ve ever seen. I wont look down on the inferior ones. Song Jin said: "You want me to help you with sex?" "We have this plan. Is it convenient for you, madam?" Doctor Jing didn''t have much confidence when he asked. It would have been nothing before, but now that Song Jin is the No. 1 scholar, she may not be willing to do such hard work. For Qin Chi''s sake, Song Jin would also help him, "Okay, I''ll send someone to Cuihua Hutong when you receive the centipede." "Thank you ma''am." Doctor Jing was overjoyed. Song Jin looked at him suspiciously, "Who is in a hurry to use it?" "It''s an old friend of mine who is also a doctor. Unfortunately, his descendants are not good enough. He was so angry that he had a stroke. I always have to give him a hand when I meet him." Doctor Jing felt sad when he mentioned his old friend. When people grow old, they encounter unfilial descendants. It''s hard for Song Jin to say anything about this. Doctor Jing went out again and asked Song Jitao to let loose the news and collect the centipedes alive. Song Jin left the medicine shop through the side door. Qin Qi, who was guarding outside and dressed as a servant, followed him when he saw this. After a few hundred steps, we arrived at Xichengfang City. It was still morning, and the market was still quite lively. Song Jin walked to the entrance of Lifengning Hutong. There is really a noodle stall in the open space not far from the entrance of the alley. A linen flag was erected next to the noodle stall, fluttering in the wind. There is a line of words on the cloth: Ding''s Yangchun Noodles. Not to mention it is a small noodle stall, Song Jitao said that it is also a time-honored restaurant. I heard that the owner has been setting up a stall here for more than 20 years and started as a couple. His wife died the year before last, and Boss Ding remarried a young wife. Song Jin looked at it. The location is relatively out of the way in Fangshi. Business was actually good, and four of the five square tables had customers. Song Jin pointed to the noodle stall, "Let''s go have a bowl of noodles." "Okay, Master." Qin Qi took a few steps up to the empty table, took out a handkerchief and wiped the bench. Move aside a little more, and Song Jin naturally sits down. Boss Ding came over as if to please, "What would you like to eat, sir?" "Two bowls of Yangchun noodles, and a pound of roasted lamb." Song Jinshi glanced at the table next to him and saw roasted lamb on their table, "Come up quickly, I''m starving to death, young master." "Okay, guest, wait a moment." Boss Ding turned around and went to the stall, telling his son that he wanted to cut a pound of roast mutton and he would cook Yangchun noodles himself. Song Jin asked Qin Qi to sit down. Qin Qi thought for a while and sat opposite her. The roast lamb and noodles havent been served yet, but the uninvited guests arrived first! Chapter 277 despise Shangguan Chapter 277 Contempt of Shangguan "We met again after a meal!" Yang Yingrong sat down without being invited, "You said we are really destined to meet each other again and again." Song Jin could only say that it was indeed a coincidence. Yang Yingrong was wearing the official uniform of the Military and Horse Division. The full name of the Military and Horse Command Department is the Five Cities Military and Horse Command Department. It is a professional security agency in the capital and is mainly responsible for urban security, municipal management, disaster relief and other functions. With the Yang family''s connections, it would not be difficult to find a job for Yang Yingrong in the Military and Horse Division. There was also a group of patrolling officers and soldiers not far away. Judging from the situation, Yang Yingrong led a team to inspect Fangshi. The incident in Jinhai Hutong last night obviously put pressure on the Wucheng Military and Horse Division. Seeing that Song Jin didn''t answer for a long time. Yang Yingrong sneered strangely, "You didn''t recognize me, did you? We have met a few times." "Oh, it turns out to be Young Master Yang San." Song Jin took the opportunity to pretend to be enlightened and said. Yang Yingrong secretly cursed a liar, but said: "You are talking about this **** fate, right? Last time you invited me to a meal in Huizhou, but I didn''t treat you back. By the way, I don''t know you yet. Whats it called? "This is Song Huaijin." Song Jin answered succinctly. Yang Yingrong waited for a long time, but did not wait for the next sentence. That''s it? Nothing else? Yang Yingrong asked directly: "You are from Huizhou and do business in Huizhou? What business do you do?" "Medicine." Song Jin said two more words. Anyone can see Song Jin''s alienation. It happened that the third young master of the Yang family was blind and came up to him like he was worthless, "Oh, now that I know the name, we can be considered friends." Wait for the roast lamb and two bowls of Yangchun noodles to be served. Yang Yingrong took a bowl neatly. The remaining bowl was passed to Song Jin. Without being greeted, he started eating the mutton one bite at a time. Qin Qi just wanted to scold her. This naughty dude, who was known to be stingy, turned out to be stingy on her. I can only ask the boss for another bowl. Song Jin picked up the noodles in the bowl with chopsticks, "Is Young Master Yang on duty? I have been to Fangshi several times before, but I have never seen anyone patrolling." "Yes! On duty." Yang Yingrong said while eating, "There was a murder in Jinhai Hutong last night, and Dali Temple is involved in the investigation. In the past few days, the city will be under martial law and patrols will be more frequent. Please stay out at night to avoid being caught." "Thank you for reminding me." Song Jin thanked him politely, then pretended to be curious and asked, "There was a murder. Is it serious?" "It is said that there was a fight between two waves of people. It was probably a vendetta. They were beaten very hard. Five corpses were left at the scene. The person handling the case in Dali Temple said that judging from the traces of the fight, more than five people were killed or injured. Unfortunately last night I was not on duty and did not see the scene. What Yang Yingrong said was not considered confidential. He was originally assigned by Shangguan to patrol the east city, but today he was temporarily transferred to the west city, and he also had patrol duties. After finishing the noodles and half of the roast lamb, Yang Yingrong patted his belly and left. Song Jin watched the freeloaders leave and muttered in a low voice: "Is the Yang family so poor?" "It''s not poor." Qin Qi said deliberately. People should be careful what they say outside. If Yang Yingrong heard it, he would tell him the truth. He is indeed poor, and his salary is just money. The pocket money given by his family was not enough for him to treat his colleagues to a restaurant for two meals. Song Jin and Qin Qi finished the food. After paying the bill, he got up and left. Waiting away from the noodle stall. Went to a tavern again and bought five kilograms of sweet-scented osmanthus brew. Return to the drug store again. Song Jin said to Song Jitao: "The Ding family is very suspicious, please pay more attention to them." "Yes, young patriarch." Song Jitao responded respectfully. Qin Qi, who was watching on the side, was very surprised. No one knows better than her what Song Jin did when she went out. Apart from eating a bowl of noodles, meeting Yang Yingrong, and going to the tavern to buy a few kilograms of wine, I did nothing else. How did Song Jin conclude that Ding''s noodle stall was suspicious? Waiting to get on the carriage home. Qin Qi couldn''t help but ask: "How did Madam know that Ding''s noodle stall was suspicious?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "The father and son who set up the stall are suspicious. One has double eyelids, and the other has single eyelids. Their faces and heights are completely different. Of course, it can be said that the son takes after the mother." Song Jin recalled the man''s expression at that time and added: "But when he was cutting the mutton, he was very nervous when he saw the people from the Bingma Division, and even the meat cutting movements were messed up." It''s like a thief seeing a soldier. Why are you panicking if you dont do anything wrong? Even though he quickly covered it up, Song Jin still discovered, "That old man Ding, when Yang Yingrong mentioned the Jinhai Hutong incident, he obviously wanted to hear it but pretended not to care. People who are innocent don''t need to pretend. If you want to listen, just be generous. Listen, the most indispensable thing in the city is gossip." This reason is not very tenable. Song Jin believed in his intuition at the time. There is something wrong with that old man Ding. Who makes him crooked? He is so old and still marries a young girl as his stepmother. How can such a person be a good person? Qin Qi did not refute. Thinking about it more carefully, it is indeed quite suspicious. Song Jin didn''t mention the family who owned the tavern because she went there and found nothing suspicious. "Madam, do you want to tell the young master these things?" Qin Qi asked tentatively. Song Jin said: "The affairs of your young master''s yamen are enough to make him tired. You can talk to Uncle Hong or Uncle Li about this matter. They should know how to do it. As for me, I will also ask someone to check and see. Can you gain something?" Everyone has their own investigation channels. It doesnt take much trouble anyway. At this time, Qin Chi was indeed as Song Jin said, there was a big drama going on in the yamen. At noon. Qin Chi and his colleagues ate boiled white meat together. Mao Shaojie came to make trouble, "Qin Qi''an, why should I hand over the matters in my hands to Wen Shidu?" "You have no discipline and despise your superior, Shidu Mao. With these two points alone, I can convict you." Qin Chi put down the bowl and chopsticks, sat on the chair and looked directly at Mao Shaojie, with eyes as calm as lake water. His eyes, at this moment, contained a sharp edge that was rarely seen in the past. Mao Shaojie''s heart tightened. Soon he sneered again and said unconcernedly: "I have been an official for more than ten years, do you really think I was scared? You must give me an explanation for this matter. If you deny it, I will report it to His Majesty and fight for it. A fair one. "Okay, you can sue." Qin Chi was as steady as a mountain and caught a glimpse of Mao Shaojie''s eyes full of ridicule, "Before you go to the imperial court to sue me, Master Yan asked you to go see him first. If you are dissatisfied, you can also go to him." Mao Shaojie was stunned. Just as he was about to say something, a servant came over and said, "Sir Mao, the Master of the Courtyard has asked your subordinate to invite you to come over." The disputes and commotion in the hall spread to the office room of the president. Mao Shaojie''s eyes were panicked. He may have argued with Qin Chi because he knew no one would dare to help Qin Chi. But I dare not argue with Yan Zhangyuan. Mao Shaojie became more and more panicked as he followed Shishu away. Chapter 278 Eat for free Chapter 278 "Is he afraid?" The lecturer next to him said. Qin Chi raised his head and glanced at him, then picked up the bowl and chopsticks, "I don''t think so." "Nonsense, I''m sure I was scared when I saw Mao Shaojie just now. He dared to be arrogant in front of you, but he didn''t dare to put on airs in front of the Master." The bachelor said firmly. Wen Shidu smiled and said, "It''s normal for him to be scared. Yan Zhangyuan always accompanies the Holy Master. Whenever you give him some eye drops in front of His Majesty, he will be done with it!" This is a bit of schadenfreude. Others followed suit. Most of them are stepping on Mao Shaojie. Qin Chi picked up a piece of boiled green vegetable and put it into his mouth in a polite manner. After chewing it slowly, he listened quietly to the discussion. Suddenly he said lightly: "Shidu Mao is just giving me a hard time, it''s not a big problem. I am indeed relatively junior, so he should be unconvinced when I sit in this position. Yan Zhangyuan will not kick people out of the Hanlin Academy." "The trouble he caused is quite big. Just contempt for Shangguan is enough for him to lose his official position." Someone suddenly made a sound in the corner. Qin Chi glanced in that direction. Lu Baizhou blinked at him. Qin Chi just wanted to say that this guy had just entered the Hanlin Academy and yet he dared to speak at this time. The officials below are also enthusiastic. What does Mao Shaojie''s mistake have to do with them? But if he loses his official position, the position of attendant will become vacant. People who are expected to be promoted secretly want to stir up trouble. The crime of contempt for superior officials refers to the act of insulting or abusing superior officials, which is clearly defined as a crime in the law. Specifically, according to the provisions of the Daxia Law, officials who commit this crime will be severely punished by law. Depending on the severity of the case, punishment may include punishment, imprisonment, or even exile. Here are all officials from the Hanlin Academy. Who is not familiar with the laws of Bactria? Just knowing is one thing, using it is another. No matter what other people think. Mao Shaojie, on the other hand, went to see Master Yan. When he came out, his face was livid and his forehead was covered with sweat. Then he sat down at his desk, pursed his lips and said nothing. One afternoon passed. The Imperial Academy was rarely quiet for half a day. Qin Chi finally didn''t have to work overtime and could go to work as soon as the time came. When he went out, there were two more people around him, Lu Yanji and Lu Baizhou. Qin Chi invited: "Come to my house for dinner?" "Really? Then you two are welcome." Lu Baizhou immediately agreed with joy, almost crying with joy, "Brother Qi''an, you don''t know that Brother Yanji and I live together in a rented apartment. Neither of us two grown men know how to cook. Either we go out to eat or not." Even the food that is hard to swallow is not as delicious as the lunch at the Hanlin Academy. It is really terrible..." They can''t bear to go out to restaurants every day. Not just their stomachs, but their wallets as well. Lu Yanji''s family background is slightly better than that of Lu Baizhou, but he can''t do anything about food. He echoed: "I''ll be shameless and go to Qi''an''s for a meal today." "Come to my house for dinner when you have time." Qin Chi said with a smile. Outside the Hanlin Academy, Qin Ba walked out from the side dressed as a young boy. Qin Ba was not the only one of the attendants guarding the outside. The four of them walked towards Cuihua Hutong together. As soon as I reached the entrance of the alley, I met a carriage parked in front of a house. A man wearing a student uniform got out of the carriage. When Qin Ba saw it, he quickly lowered his head. He walked up to Qin Chi and whispered in Qin Chi''s ear: "Master, the person who got off the carriage is Liu Ji." When Qin Chi looked at it. Just in time to see Liu Ji striding into the door. There are two words "Liu Zhai" on the door plaque. After just one glance, Qin Chi naturally withdrew his gaze and took it as a casual look at someone passing by. Not only Qin Chi, but also Lu Yanji and Lu Baizhou also looked over there. However, few people said anything. After walking for a while, we arrived at Qin''s house. The door was open, and Old Man Hong was sitting on Shidun aside. When he saw Qin Chi coming back, he stood up to greet him. When guests come over, the kitchen will naturally add dishes. Qin Chi asked someone to make tea and take it to the study. There are no outsiders in private. Qin Chi waited for the tea to be served, and let the two of them take a sip of tea, and then said: "Bai Zhou took a risk today. I''m worried that Mao Shaojie will cause trouble for you when he finds out." "Don''t be afraid. I guess he won''t be arrogant for long." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Lu Baizhou said very firmly. Lu Yanji on the side also noticed it, "Are you so sure that someone will pull him down?" "I''m sure, that means Mao Shaojie didn''t see clearly. He kept staring at Brother Qi''an''s position, but he didn''t know that there were more people staring at his position below." Lu Baizhou was not exaggerating. The Hanlin Academy did the most compilation and compilation. There are many top picks and second picks from the same background. Is it because they are not qualified enough? Enough! But if no one vacates the position, how can one be promoted? Either leave the Hanlin Academy and find another way out; or pull down the people in front of you and free up official positions. Qin Chi said helplessly: "This is your guess. Mao Shaojie is backed by Yuan Shangshu. Not everyone has the courage to touch him." "Hmph, just wait and see." Lu Baizhou firmly believed that someone would take action, "If I hadn''t just entered the Hanlin Academy, I wouldn''t have been able to take the official position. I would have stabbed him in the back immediately." Lu Yanji and Qin Chi paused for a moment. They all looked at Lu Baizhou again. Lu Baizhou was beaming as he spoke, and immediately grinned when the two of them looked over. Come on, he''s just a fool. The three of them chatted for a while, and the food was ready. After they had had enough wine and food, before it got dark, Qin Ba acted as a coachman to take the two of them home. Qin Chi also learned from Lao Li Tou that Song Jin went out today and went to the market outside Fengning Hutong. Did Song Jin buy the sweet-scented osmanthus wine to entertain guests tonight? Qin Chi didn''t know what to say for a moment. A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, and his wife does not seem to have this awareness. Or it may be because of different personal experiences and upbringing. The woman who seems gentle and virtuous is actually independent and strong. Even if she gets married, she never thinks of relying on him completely. This made Qin Chi feel very complicated. Song Jin came over with a bowl of cold Tremella soup, and happened to see Qin Chi looking over. When their eyes met, she noticed something was wrong in his eyes, and asked, "What''s the matter with my husband? Did something happen?" Pass the white fungus soup to Qin Chi. Qin Chi took it and put it on the table, then took her hand and shook it gently, "I heard you went out today?" "Yes, I went to the drug store and then went to the market for a bit." When Song Jin heard this question, he knew what he meant, "I bumped into Young Master Yang San on the way, and he ate another bowl of Yangchun noodles and half a catty of roast mutton from me. I really don''t know if the Yang family is that poor?" " Most people who are stingy do so because they dont have enough money. It''s very strange for a young master to dig and dig. It is said outside that Mr. Yang Ge is an honest official. Just listen to this, Song Jin doesn''t believe a word of it. Chapter 279 Got a copy Chapter 279: Being included in a book "My wife is right to be suspicious. Aren''t all dandy boys spending money like water? How can he become a dandy if he is like this?" Qin Chi also felt that Yang Yingrong was a bit disobedient. Then I thought about this person going to the Wucheng Military and Horse Division as an errand. He added: "I asked Uncle Hong to check on him again." "Well, thank you for your service." Song Jin withdrew his hand, sat down on a chair nearby, and pulled out a book from the bookshelf next to him, "In recent years, people have been staring at people from the Yang family. There are some things that hide evil, but they are exposed alone." None of it can hurt the Yang family, and even if everything is exposed, it won''t hurt Mr. Yang Ge. Especially if the Yuan family is like this, your majesty can save it, and it won''t be much different when it comes to Mr. Yang Ge." "Unless His Majesty knows that the Yang family is plotting against him." Qin Chi picked up the white fungus soup and started to eat it, "This is cold, has it been frozen?" "Where is the ice? It was put in the well to cool down." Song Jin recalled the possibility of letting Emperor Ming Cheng know the truth, "Does Uncle Hong have any evidence?" Qin Chi shook his head, "I asked, no." The messenger in the palace conveys the message, which is just a piece of paper. It is customary to destroy it after viewing it. Song Jin''s look of pity flashed past, "Then let''s do this for now." Immediately he lowered his head and flipped through the book in his hand, which was a miscellany. While Qin Chi was eating the white fungus soup, he inadvertently raised his eyes and looked at Song Jin next to him. In the evening, she put on makeup. Under the soft light, she sat quietly in front of the bookshelf full of traces of time, wearing an elegant ink-colored long skirt with a few orchids embroidered on the hem, swaying gently as she turned the pages of the book. The face is like finely carved porcelain. Gentle, indifferent and peaceful. A pair of eyes are like the bright moon in the autumn water, bright and clear, as if they can see into the abyss of the human heart. The scriptures held by those delicate hands are immersed in the sea of ??books, calm and contented. As if being infected, Qin Chi''s impetuous mood during the day suddenly dissipated at this moment. It was not unreasonable for his mother to not allow him to become an official in the court. When Qin Chi truly entered the officialdom, he somewhat understood his mother''s painstaking efforts. However, everything we do now is for peace in the future, so that we can live uprightly under the sun in the future. That night there was the famous and upright Zheng Yushi at his house. At the same time, I received several letters. The content was not only about reporting Mao Shaojie of the Hanlin Academy, but these letters were written by different people. Zheng Yushi said: "How hateful is this Mao Shaojie? That he provoked so many people to report him." "Is it possible that someone wants to use the master as a gunman?" Mrs. Zheng on the side was sewing a robe. Zheng Yushi touched his beard and said, "Being a gun also shows that I am valuable. I will go find out tomorrow. If it is true, I will write a book for him." "I''m going to offend someone again." Mrs. Zheng said worriedly, "You are about to offend all the civil and military officials in this dynasty." "It is the censor''s responsibility to correct the lawlessness. I have a sense of proportion." Zheng Yushi knew it well. If you don''t establish an image of someone who hates evil and is upright, why should you be a censor? I really thought that anyone could be a censor, but if he had no merit or achievements, he would still be infamy. The censor is responsible for supervising the officials and is most likely to be rejected by the officials. Zheng Yushi was mentally sharpening his sword and wanted to attack Mao Shaojie, so he decided to send his entourage to inquire about it tomorrow morning. On the second day, there was a grand meeting. The morning light is shining, and the Wulong Bridge in the imperial city is dotted with silver frost. There was a cold feeling between the stone steps, and the bells sounded melodiously. In front of the Jinluan Palace, the imperial guards stood solemnly, their silver armor reflecting the sun, their expressions as firm as a rock. The courtiers'' steady steps echoed among the silent palace walls. In the hall, on the dragon chair, Emperor Ming Cheng looked grim. The **** in charge of the ceremony and **** next to him said loudly: "If you have something to do, please leave the court. If there is nothing to do, please retreat!" On the side, a famous imperial censor stood up holding a imperial hut and reported to the emperor: "Yan Xianqing, the head of the Hanlin Academy, has a lazy temperament and neglects his duties. As a result, the officials of the Hanlin Academy are not doing their business every day, fighting and fighting, and people''s hearts are not as good as before. The literary style was corrupted, and the imperial court suffered great losses." Officials of the Hanlin Academy did not have to go to court. It does not mean that there are no people from the Hanlin Academy at the court meeting. Yan Xianqing was a doctor in the Ministry of Etiquette, and he was also in the court hall. When Emperor Ming Cheng looked over, Yan Xianqing was kneeling on His Highness''s face, his forehead touching the ground, his hands clenched, and his court clothes soaked with sweat. His heart surged, knowing that once he was found guilty, he would be in a desperate situation. The person who stood up to intervene was Yuan Yushi. He is a member of Yuan Shangshu''s branch. He probably knows that he warned Mao Shaojie yesterday and came to join him today. This is to strike first. The courtiers bowed their heads in silence and breathed heavily. As if afraid of disturbing the solid air. Their hearts were churning. Some of them sympathized with Yan Xianqing for making trouble as soon as he was promoted to head of the hospital, while others were gloating and watching the show. The emperor spoke slowly: "Yan Aiqing, what''s your excuse?" "If you want to accuse someone, why bother?" Yan Xianqing quickly regained his composure and began to defend himself, "Your Majesty, I have just taken office as the head of the court, and it has only been one month. How many outrageous things must I do to cause great losses to the imperial court''s civil affairs?" As soon as these words came out. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Everyone else was silent. There hasn''t been any scandal in the Hanlin Academy this month. The commotion in the Hanlin Academy was also in their own area, and various departments in the imperial court were not as calm as the Hanlin Academy. Emperor Ming Cheng raised his lips and asked again: "Yuan Yushi, it''s your turn to speak. Yan Xianqing asked you, what did he do?" Yuan Yushi wiped his sweat. Yesterday he received a report letter. Who is Mao Shaojie? He is the son-in-law of Yuan Shangshu. Immediately, Yuan Yushi took Mao Shaojie to the Yuan Mansion. Yuan Shangshu told them to stay put and it didn''t matter if they were joined. Later, he would go back to the Ministry of Industry and transfer him to the Sixth Ministry. Who knows when Yuan Yushi and Mao Shaojie leave. On the way, I received news that Zheng Yushi had also received several letters. According to Zheng Yushi''s character, he will definitely be involved. Mao Shaojie''s mind got hot and he simply asked Yuan Yushi to read Yan Xianqing, which might muddy the waters. At this time, Yuan Yushi could only stick to his own opinion. Yan Xianqing retorted. In the end, Qin Chi and Mao Shaojie were involved. He was summoned from the Hanlin Academy to the main hall. Qin Chi and Mao Shaojie kowtowed to Emperor Ming Cheng when they entered the palace. It soon became clear to the two of them what happened in the palace. Emperor Mingcheng asked: "What do you two have to say?" Qin Chi remained silent. Mao Shaojie knelt down in front of the hall and felt a chill rising from his spine. But at this point, he could only bite the bullet and defend himself: "Master Qin is young and arrogant. He is proud of his talents. I have always loved my talents. Seeing that he has just taken over the affairs, It was inevitable that he was unfamiliar, so I gave him some advice. It was out of good intentions, but Master Qin not only did not appreciate it, but also stopped the affairs of the ministers privately... Perhaps it is because Master Yan is protecting him that he feels confident. Please be aware of it, Your Majesty. " This is throwing all the dirty water on Qin Chi. It also alluded to Yan Xianqing''s partiality and bending the law. The atmosphere in the palace was particularly serious and quiet. Emperor Ming Cheng looked at Qin Chi, "What did Qin Zhuangyuan say?" "Your Majesty, this humble minister has acted upright and has no regrets in his heart. It''s just that Mao Daidu''s mouth confuses right and wrong, which is really chilling." As if he couldn''t bear it anymore, Qin Chi recounted his experiences since taking office. No exaggeration or embellishing. Just use very plain sentences to explain the matter. It was said with such true feelings that the listeners were saddened and the listeners shed tears. Qin Chi choked up and said: "Your Majesty, since I took office, I was able to go to work normally and have a good sleep yesterday. Who would have thought that today..." Even Emperor Mingcheng was sad. Not to mention others. Only Yuan Shangshu and his family cursed secretly. (End of chapter) Chapter 280 Qin Chi was promoted again Chapter 280 Qin Chi gets promoted again At the right time, a military general stood up and said in a rough voice: "Your Majesty, the civil servants are so round and round and don''t understand, but this kid is so pitiful. Your personally named Number One Scholar, some people don''t like him. Isn''t that right?" Want to make things difficult for you? This must be punished severely." "Yes! If you don''t punish me severely, your Majesty, you will appoint an official in the future, and they will torment him. Is that right?" Another military attach stood up to support him. Civil servants have always looked down upon military attachs. Military attachs also look down on weak-minded civil servants who know a lot of principles but rarely do human affairs. Civil and military officials have never been very harmonious. Suddenly a military attach stood up to interfere in this matter, which was very surprising, and what happened next was even more surprising. The military attachs were talking to each other one by one, as if they were setting up a stage to satirize the civil servants for being too narrow-minded and not doing business all day long. , the shelf is still very high. Some people began to wonder why a group of rough guys suddenly said good things to Qin Chi. Later, when I heard it, something didnt feel right. Good guy! This group of military attachs were not trying to say good things for Qin Chi, they were giving eye drops to the civil servants of the Manchu Dynasty in front of the emperor. Strangely, Emperor Mingcheng didn''t say a word. It felt good to hear it. Emperor Mingcheng looked at several cabinet ministers standing aside, "What do you all say, dear ministers?" "Your Majesty should investigate this matter thoroughly. If it is true, we must not tolerate it." Seeing that the others did not say anything, Yang Gelao stood up and said. Then the Minister of Rites also stood up and asked Qin Chi: "Qin Qi''an, is there any evidence for what you said?" "some." Qin Chi took out a stack of manuscripts from his sleeve pocket, "These are all left by Mao Shi when he made mistakes in his work. He made mistakes in every one of them. He asked him to correct them and he didn''t want to. I can only copy them again and send them to him." When you get to the imperial court, you only need to go to Wenyuan Pavilion to check the authenticity." Everyone understands this. In fact, it is not difficult to investigate. The handwriting of the articles is different. Its clear who did the work. The **** came down and took the manuscript and handed it to Emperor Mingcheng for review. In fact, Emperor Mingcheng and some ministers knew whether Qin Chi had lied. However, it was one thing to know some things in private, but they could not tell them publicly. Qin Chi became famous in the Imperial Academy, and Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty remembered him. After he finished six yuan, he was even more impressed. But just when he appointed him as the number one scholar, this guy sued Yuan Shangshu. Very disappointing! Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty deliberately promoted Qin Chi. I want to suppress his arrogance. Waiting for him to make mistakes in his official position and being made things difficult for him, he would then put him back to his original position and wait for two or three years before re-employing him. For this reason, he even told his confidant **** that he was waiting to see Qin Chi''s excitement. Unexpected. Qin Chi persisted day after day. A month later, he was still as stable as a mountain. He did not go to anyone to complain, but only gave half a catty of pepper to Yan Xianqing. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty ascended the throne for more than 20 years. Accustomed to seeing treacherous and cunning ministers who play tricks on power, Qin Chi is like a dust-free white lotus among these people, especially clean and conspicuous. It didn''t take long for people who went to the Hanlin Academy to find out. Mao Shaojie''s popularity in the Hanlin Academy was very poor, and there were many colleagues who made trouble for him. No, they just told the truth and did not dare to disobey the holy orders. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty said angrily: "Mao Shaojie was dismissed from his post and investigated, and he was dragged out of the palace with a staff of fifty. You don''t have to leave me a hand. It will be done in one breath." The emperor''s order came out. Two members of the imperial army entered the hall and took Mao Shaojie out, one from the left and the other from the right. Mao Shaojie turned pale with fright and repeatedly begged for mercy, but no one stood up to plead for him. After being dragged out, the hall finally became quiet again. Emperor Ming Cheng looked at Qin Chi, who was still kneeling. "Qin Aiqing has been wronged this time, but I have also discovered that Qin Aiqing is a great talent. It''s just that she is a bit unqualified by staying in the Hanlin Academy. The Ministry of Industry is short of manpower. You go to the Ministry of Industry and serve as Yu Hengqing concurrently." The official is appointed as a doctor." Another promotion? Everyone did not expect that Emperor Ming Cheng would come like this. This method of promotion completely goes against the rules. But in recent years, few people have dared to refute Emperor Ming Cheng''s decision-making. Ministers who dare to argue with him will either go into seclusion or have grass growing on their graves. "I thank you Lord for your kindness." Qin Chi kowtowed again, "Long live your Majesty, long live your Majesty." After he retreated, the meeting continued. Eunuch Ji Xiang led Qin Chi out, looked back at the palace gate, and congratulated Qin Chi again, "Congratulations to Mr. Qin. Today is another promotion." "Thank you. I said I would buy you a drink last time, but I haven''t been able to fulfill it yet." Qin Chi joked with a smile. Ji Xiang said cheerfully: "There will be opportunities in the future." A group of patrolling Imperial Guards came towards us. The two shut up at the right time. Wait until the imperial army passes. Jixiang added: "When you take up your post at the Ministry of Industry, you must be careful and don''t let others bully you again." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Thank you, father-in-law, for the tip." Qin Chi said with gratitude, "For the great prosperity of the Xia Dynasty, I will do my best to live up to your majesty''s expectations." "Lord Qin is interested, and Long Live Lord will be happy if he knows it." Eunuch Ji Xiang just wanted to say that Lord Qin is too young. He did not dare to speculate on the emperor''s thoughts, but he also knew that His Majesty was not well-intentioned. The Ministry of Industry is Yuan Shangshu''s territory. Asking Qin Chi to take up a position in the Ministry of Industry is not sending a sheep into the tiger''s mouth? At present, Yuan Shangshu is still reflecting at home, but it does not mean that he has no control over the Ministry of Industry. It is not easy to hinder a newly appointed doctor. Ji Xiang sympathized with Qin Chi in his heart. With Qin Chi''s intelligence, how could he not understand? The Ministry of Industry is led by the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, who is the second rank, and the left and right ministers of the Ministry of Industry, who are the third rank. Then there are four departments below, and the head of each department is a doctor. Yu Heng Qing Li Division is one of the four divisions, referred to as Yu Heng Division. It is responsible for supervising the harvesting and smelting work of mountains, forests, and rivers, and producing military uniforms, weapons, etc. Qin Chi''s bachelor''s degree in the Hanlin Academy was from the fifth rank, and the doctor''s degree was from the fifth rank. It was indeed a promotion. I went back to the Hanlin Academy. Qin Chi thanked the other colleagues who helped him one by one, and said that he would treat everyone to a banquet after he received his monthly salary. Some people learned that he also served as a doctor in the Ministry of Industry. After Qin Chi leaves. The people present had been holding it in for so long and finally couldn''t hold it in any longer. "Sometimes I don''t know whether to envy Mr. Qin or sympathize with him." "I want to be envious, but..." The man''s eyelids twitched and he smiled meaningfully. Anyone who should understand can understand. Then everyone chatted and went about their own business. Lu Baizhou poked Lu Yanji''s elbow, "What do you think about this?" "It''s a blessing, not a curse. Even a disaster can''t be avoided." Lu Yanji also knew about the grievances between Qin Chi and the Yuan family. "Your Majesty sent Qi''an to the Ministry of Industry, but I don''t know what his purpose is." The Sacred Heart is unpredictable and he cannot guess it. Lu Baizhou whispered: "Let''s go to Cuihua Hutong later?" "Okay, you can call me then." Lu Yanji also wanted to ask Qin Chi to see if there was anyone who could help. (End of chapter) Chapter 281 Doctor of the Ministry of Industry Chapter 281 Doctor from the Ministry of Industry Cuihua Hutong, Qin''s house. "Promoted again?" Song Jin looked at Qin Chi in surprise, "What happened in the court today?" "There is a censor who has read a copy of Yan Zhangyuan. His surname is Yuan." Qin Chi told what happened in the hall today at home, "Yan Zhangyuan and I are both fine. Mao Shaojie was thrown into jail, and the imperial staff was five ten." Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty said that he would take a breath. In fact, it was to save Mao Shaojie''s life, otherwise fifty sticks would have been enough to kill him. Qin Chi took a sip of the warm tea and said, "Now I have another grudge against the Yuan family." "Without this matter, they have no intention of letting my husband go." Song Jin knew that the Yuan family would not let Qin Chi off easily for the sake of their own face. At present, Emperor Ming Cheng would have a sense of restraint for the time being. It will be hard to say in the future, so when Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty still paid attention to Qin Chi, he had to climb up and climb to a high position where the Yuan family could not easily touch him. Song Jin glanced at Qin Chi worriedly. Even though she knew there was someone behind him, she was still worried. Lao Litou and others on the side were also worried after hearing this. Old Li Tou asked worriedly: "Sir, do you have to work in the Ministry of Industry?" Qin Chi said: "I must do the things that I am responsible for. This is your majesty''s golden words. Failure to do it is tantamount to resisting the decree." "Can you handle two jobs at the same time?" Old Li Tou was worried about Qin Chi''s health, "It''s tiring just thinking about it." Qin Chi thought that the time he would stay in the Ministry of Industry would definitely be longer than that in the Hanlin Academy. "The duty of a bachelor''s degree scholar is to accompany His Majesty to study and study classics and history. There are not many things he really has to do." Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty was old and rarely read. Qin Chi comforted him again: "Don''t worry too much, Yuan Shangshu is still at home to reflect. Even if he wants me to die, he doesn''t dare to blatantly do so." Song Jin pondered again and asked: "Why did the man in the palace place my husband in Yu Heng''s office?" After she asked this. Everyone else looked at Qin Chi. Qin Chi wanted to talk about the uneasy and kind-hearted person, "Yu Hengsi had a corruption case before. The money that should have been appropriated was embezzled, and the military uniforms and weapons that were supposed to be sent to the military camp were also defective. Last time I went back to the Yang family to get the evidence, Let me stab him in front of His Majesty." "It turns out the trap is here." Song Jin just wanted to say that being an emperor is really dirty. In the end, the doctor in charge of Yu Hengsi took all the blame for this corruption case. Of course, it was because of his unclean nature that he gave the Yuan family a handle. If Yuan Shangshu wanted to protect himself, he had to sacrifice someone. Of course, I dont know what promise Yuan Shangshu made to the other party. Song Jin asked with concern: "Ms. sir, are you really okay?" "It''s okay. I can''t manage a department well. How can I continue to climb up in the future?" Qin Chi''s ambition is not limited to this. This is just entering the court, just the beginning. Qin Chi looked around at everyone and said with a smile: "Yu Hengsi is indeed in a mess now. No one is willing to take over, but it is also an opportunity, right?" "If you need any help from us, just ask." Song Jin understood immediately. Qin Chi said bluntly: "My lady is generous. I may need a batch of cotton and leather to make military uniforms and send them to the northwest in winter." "Self-serving for public benefit?" Song Jin blurted out. Qin Chi''s expression froze, and then he looked at Song Jin faintly, "Does the lady want to be her husband that much? This is not a pretense of serving the public for personal benefit, but mutual benefit, common prosperity, and benefiting the country and the people." Song Jin turned away his eyes and added: "No, I was thinking wrong just now. I will send a message to someone to buy cotton and leather later. It''s just that different regions have different picking times for cotton, and the earliest picking time is seven days. Months, calculate the time, it just so happens that the fleet can also buy some along the way. " "Then there''s Mrs. Lao." Qin Chi knew that Shun''an Commercial Bank would also make acquisitions every year. It''s just that the quantity is limited. Generally speaking, the people who grow it will sell it to familiar purchasers. Song Jin''s fleet is different. If they can buy it, they buy it; if they can''t buy it, they exchange goods for goods. Often local businessmen are very fond of this. Song Jin thought of what Yu Hengsi was responsible for. But the more I thought about it, the more I frowned. "What are you thinking, madam?" Qin Chi''s eyes fell on Song Jin''s frowning eyebrows. Song Jin didn''t hide anything, "I''m thinking about what affairs Master Yu Heng will be responsible for, and how to guard against someone trying to trip you up in the future." "Yu Hengsi said he supervises the harvesting of mountains, forests, and rivers. This statement is very general. In fact, he is in charge of the harvesting of meat, leather, bones, feathers, etc. of birds and animals in mountains and rivers, as well as the production of military uniforms, manufacturing weapons, and firing. Ceramics, smelting tools, etc." Qin Chi thought that if someone were to mess with these things, it would be really difficult to prevent them. Qin Chi thought of something else and continued: "Madam, don''t worry. Since I am in charge of a department, I will have a number of assistants and chiefs under me. Naturally, the hard work will be done by others. After all, I am... not in good health. , Just use your words." He said the last sentence frankly. Song Jin just wanted to ask if he wanted some face? Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! But its not wrong if you think about it carefully. Yu Hengsi has a lot of affairs, and if Qin Chi had to do everything personally, he would be too exhausted to do it. It''s just that rather than staying in the Hanlin Academy to study, Qin Chi actually prefers to work in the Ministry of Industry. At least he is doing practical work and has a lot of room for maneuver. He is not afraid that the Yuan family will come to trouble him. What I''m most afraid of is that the other party won''t come looking for trouble. It''s a bit unethical to step on the Yuan family to get the upper hand. If the Yuan family can''t stand it, they''ll rush to kill him, and Qin Chi can''t do it even if he doesn''t accept it. Just after noon. The **** who came to deliver the order from the Superintendent of Ceremonies arrived. At the same time, not only the imperial edict came, but also the official seal and official uniform of the doctor from the Ministry of Industry. It was Jixiang who came to convey the edict. This is the job he stole. "Mr. Qin, congratulations, Long Live Lord said that you were frightened this time and you can report to the Ministry of Industry in three days." Jixiang said with a gentle smile, very friendly. Qin Chi stuffed him with a big red envelope. I even gave him the share of the last edict, saying it was money for his tea. Ji Xiang thanked him with a smile, said a few nice words, and left the Qin family with others. Many curious people came outside the Qin family to watch. The onlookers were whispering. The Dong family''s door opposite also opened its door, and someone was looking in here. "Is there someone from the palace? What happened to Qin Zhuangyuan?" "Looks like a **** delivering an order." "Come out, come out!" "It can''t be that Qin Qi''an has been promoted again. I took a look just now and the little **** behind him was holding something like an official hat and uniform." "You''re bragging, it''s all covered with red cloth, you''re just looking at it." People outside the gate began to speculate. When they saw Ji Xiang and the others coming out, no one dared to come forward and ask. This is the **** in the palace. They looked down upon eunuchs, but they did not dare to offend them. Chapter 282 prestige Chapter 282 Reputation The door to the Qin family was not closed. Therefore, the people watching the excitement outside did not disperse. Someone boldly came over and asked, "Old man, is there any happy event in the master''s family, and what are the eunuchs in the palace doing?" Old Man Hong glanced at the man. His cold attitude could not stop outsiders from gossiping. Lao Li came out with a smile on his head. After exchanging pleasantries with the person who came to inquire, the news soon spread that Qin Chi was concurrently serving as a doctor in the Ministry of Industry. It was Song Jin who asked Lao Litou to come out and promote it. Otherwise, it wouldn''t be a problem for people to gather in front of the Qin family''s gate all the time. "Madam, if Uncle Li comes out like this, I will be hated again." Qin Chi stood next to Song Jin and joked. Song Jin glanced at him sideways and said, "People outside are only envious. Those who really want to envy you are also their masters. Because most of the people who come to watch are servants from various families in Cuihua Hutong." The master of each family maintains his own identity. I wont crowd around with the servants to avoid losing my status. People who sell themselves into slavery will only be envious when they see Qin Chi. For them, Qin Chi stood too high and was not on the same level as them at all. They shouldn''t even hate him. On the contrary, their master, Qin Chi, stood in a higher position than them at a young age, so it was strange that they had smooth minds. However, the due etiquette will still exist. Just as Song Jin expected. Not long after, various families in Cuihua Hutong sent gifts one after another, saying they congratulated Qin Chi on his promotion. Song Jin returned the gifts one by one. In the evening. Lu Yanji and Lu Baizhou came over. Qin Chi stayed with the two of them in the study for half an hour, and then had dinner together. Qin Ba then drove the two of them back. It''s not just that. There are more and more posts from the Qin family every day. In addition to the posts sent from banquets held by various families in the capital, there are also greeting posts from some scholars. Among them were classmates from the Imperial College, students from major academies, and scholars from Huizhou. When someone sends a post, they will also include their own articles, poems, etc., euphemistically saying that they are asking for advice. Some people even recommended themselves to serve as Qin Chi''s staff. Among the pile of posts, there may be some who really want to make friends with Qin Chi, but there will also be no shortage of people who use this as a test. In short, there must be people arranged by various forces to approach Qin Chi. Rest at home for three days. Qin Chi met some people, but they were all students who submitted articles for comments. Most of the appointments he made with them were based on literary exchanges. This move made Qin Chi''s reputation among scholars even higher. Three days of leisure have passed. Qin Chi reported to the Ministry of Works on time and brought his attendant with him. One is Lao Huo and the other is Qin Ba. The appearance of the old Huo Tower can shock a lot of young people. Not to mention Qin Ba, he could strike up a few words with anyone and ask him to follow Qin Chi, which would save Qin Chi a lot of worry. In addition, for the sake of safety, people went to and from the Yamen by horse-drawn carriage instead. Old Li Tou was the groom. The three of them had already been out in the open, so it wouldn''t be conspicuous if they followed. During his tenure, Qin Chi took over Yu Hengsi''s work smoothly, and the success was beyond everyone''s expectations. I don''t know how many people were paying attention to the Ministry of Industry before, waiting for the Yuan family to make things difficult for Qin Chi and then give Qin Chi a blow. There is nothing at all. Even the worried Qin Ba and Lao Huo were surprised. They thought they were going to fight for several rounds. Result, that''s it? Calm and calm. But it''s like the calm before the storm. Qin Chi has been busy these days, and Song Jin has not been idle either. He often stays alone in the processing room and cooks wine centipedes for Doctor Jing. In her spare time, she paid attention to the news in the capital. Qin Zhuangyuan, who had just been quiet for a while, became the focus of people in the capital after dinner. Song Jin arranged for people to guide discussions in teahouses and restaurants. Whenever he encountered rumors that were unfavorable to Qin Chi, he would stand up to question the other party and then refute the rumors, trying to make Qin Chi''s image as positive as possible. A person who lives a new life. I know best how important reputation is to a person. Song Jin wrote more than ten letters at the same time and had them sent out of the capital. Among them were letters sent home to Huizhou, some to Jin Long and others, and letters to Xing Lun and others. The rest were from the Song family branches in various states, asking them to help collect cotton, leather, bones and horns, etc. There are some things that Qin Chi may not be able to use right now. But be prepared, right? In addition, the medicinal materials sent to Fuzhou must be prepared as soon as possible. Specify it and ask Song Xiaodong to deliver it. "Madam, the wine centipede is ready." Qin Qi looked at the finished wine centipede with surprise, which could be used as medicine. Song Jin was very satisfied after the inspection, "Put it up, and in a quarter of an hour, we will go out to the drug store." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! After Qin Qi responded, he began to follow the instructions. Song Jin went back to the dormitory. Together with Qin Qi, he left Qin''s house through the back door. There is only one carriage at home, and Qin Chi is using it now, so Qin Qi ordered a new one. The carriage passed by Liu Zhai. Heard some movement outside. Song Jin opened a corner of the carriage curtain and happened to see a woman getting off the carriage, it was Liu Jianfang. Just a glance. Song Jin discovered the changes in Liu Jianfang before and after marriage. Before marriage, Liu Jianfang was bright and charming, with a fighting spirit and an energy to climb up. Putting aside the fact that she was an enemy, Song Jin somewhat admired such a woman. It''s not easy for a woman in this world, and Liu Jianfang''s aura of not relying on men is rare among women nowadays. However, at this moment, Song Jin saw defeat in Liu Jianfang. It was as if the sunflower that had taken shape began to wither, and there was a hollow and tired look in his eyes. It seems that I have been beaten to pieces by the cruelty of reality, struggling like a trapped animal in my heart, but I can''t find any hope or way out. Song Jin had seen many such women in his previous life. Maybe she was one of them in her previous life. "My boss, that''s Ambassador Liu." Qin Qi reminded in a low voice. Song Jin lowered the curtain, "What happened to her in the past two or three years?" "Ambassador Liu has some skills. He has already established a firm foothold in the herbal medicine library, and the deputy envoys there have become her confidants." "If you are successful in officialdom, what about at home?" Song Jin thought that Xiao Xi would come to visit, so the affairs of the Liu family''s back house were rarely mentioned. Qin Qi reported in a low voice: "I haven''t heard of the big thing, but the Liu family is very famous in Cuihua Hutong." "What''s your name?" "The back house is very chaotic, hey." Qin Qi told Liu Ji''s romantic history, "It has been almost two years since we got married, and Liu Jianfang is still not pregnant. I heard that the relationship between the Liu family''s mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was not good, so Liu Ji took in two concubines. I dont have a legitimate son yet, but I already have two concubines. Liu Ji is a romantic and talented man. It is said that one of the concubines came from a brothel. Song Jin thought thoughtfully, "Did that person change after marriage?" Qin Qi also thinks so. Song Jin didn''t think so. Liu Jianfang is very ambitious. I didn''t have a deep feeling for Liu Ji back then, so why did it end like this? Song Jin was thinking about Liu Jianfang''s affairs, and unknowingly the carriage arrived at the medicine shop on West Street. Enter the pharmacy from the side door. He didn''t see anyone, but he heard the excitement coming from the pharmacy lobby and the sound of a woman acting up and crying. Chapter 283 Encounter strange things Chapter 283 Encountering strange things Song Jin listened quietly for a while. Have some idea of ??what''s going on out there. It was Dr. Jing who helped an old friend treat his illness, but somehow his son and daughter-in-law, who were addicted to gambling, found out about it. They thought his father was hiding money for medical treatment, so he ransacked the house and even took the person to Jifang Pharmacy, saying no. You have to get your money back after seeing a doctor. It makes no sense to reason with this kind of person. Song Jitao asked someone to invite the official. Before they could say anything, the family left the old man who had suffered a stroke and ran away without anyone left. Song Jitao gave the two officials a tael of silver and said, "Thank you for your hard work, sir." "Shop Manager Song, please come to us if you need anything in the future." The two officials were very happy. You can get a tael of silver for just one trip, so there''s nothing to be picky about. Wait for the incident in the store lobby to calm down. Only then did Song Jin appear in the lobby. I saw an old man in the hall who had suffered a stroke, lying on a door panel, tears streaming silently, and his body smelled a bit unpleasant. Apparently no one had taken care of him at home. The family came to the drug store to cause trouble, but Doctor Jing and his apprentice were not around. Just as Song Jitao was about to speak, he saw Song Jin appear. He rushed to greet him and said respectfully, "My boss." "Take this uncle into the house to rest." Song Jin asked someone to take the old man who had suffered a stroke to a temporary room for patients to rest, and then asked someone to wash him and feed him some food. "Have you sent someone to notify Mr. Jing?" "I''ve already sent someone to notify you." Song Jitao said that Dr. Jing and his apprentice were on a medical visit. I won''t be back so soon for a while. Qin Qi put the delivered wine centipede on the counter. The medicine boy immediately took it and put it away, and chatted with the medicine boy for a few more words. Song Jin and Song Jitao went to the teahouse. I came here specifically to ask about the situation of the Ding family in Fengning Hutong. Song Jitao considered it and said: "This family''s daily life is no different from ordinary people, except that someone often goes to his house at night. When a neighbor asks, he says he is delivering mutton. The other person''s family does business. It is normal for someone to deliver freshly slaughtered mutton at night." Besides, nothing else? Song Jitao was about to speak but stopped. Song Jin didn''t miss the hesitant look, "If you have anything else to say, just say it." "this" Song Jitao suppressed the blush on his cheeks and said with twinkling eyes, "I just stared at the Ding family and found something unspeakable at night." "Speak directly." Song Jin rarely saw him hesitating like this. Song Jitao held it in for a long time, and then he said, "Yes, that family is not very particular. Old man Ding''s eldest son is not clear with his newly married young wife. The woman said to the outside world that she was married back, but in fact she was. Bought from a tooth shop. She is said to be Old Man Ding''s wife, but in fact her life is worse than that of a slave. Old Man Ding''s four sons are already married and have children. Its just that the daughters-in-law seldom go out and have little contact with their neighbors. They often see injuries on their bodies, so there are rumors that the men of the Ding family beat their wives. It is not a rare thing in Xicheng for a man to beat his wife. Outsiders would only gossip about it, but no one would take it seriously, let alone take care of it. Wait for Song Jitao to exit. Qin Qi, who was guarding the door, naturally heard the conversation between the two, "Madam, there is indeed a problem with the Ding family. Uncle Hong said that it is either a hidden stake or a stronghold of the other party. It is best for your people to withdraw to avoid attracting the other party''s attention. " "That''s it..." Song Jin listened. It was not easy to train available manpower, and she did not want anything to happen to her people, so she immediately called Song Jitao to give some instructions. Just at this time. There was movement outside. In the tea room, I heard Doctor Jing yelling in anger, "Beast! That beast. What a crime. Even I don''t care about it, and I''m not afraid of thunder from the sky." "Ah, Jing, no, it can''t be cured..." The old man lying on the bed could not speak clearly, but he could still say a few words. "Don''t say such depressing words. The symptoms of your stroke are not too serious. As long as you get good treatment, you can recover more than half of it no matter what. Don''t worry about the money you spent. I will give you a cushion first, and you will pay me back when you get better in the future. " Doctor Jing gave the old man an injection while persuading him, "This man is better off dead than alive. At our age, if you can live one day at a time, you don''t want to see what happens to that beast in the future." Tears fell from the corners of the old man''s eyes again. It didnt stop falling. Song Jin listened for a while. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! I just feel that Dr. Jing is not very good at persuading people. No matter how unfilial they are, they are still the sons and grandsons of an old man. They are different from their enemies after all. Otherwise, it would be difficult for an upright official to handle household affairs. Next, Doctor Jing started nagging again, and Song Jin stopped listening after listening to a few words. You can actually hear it from it. The old man who suffered a stroke was once a doctor with very good medical skills. However, there is a prodigal son in the family, and he lost half of his life savings. Last year, his wife was so angry that he was so angry that he suffered a stroke and became paralyzed. A man falls ill. Without filial descendants to serve you, you will end up in a miserable life. If Dr. Jing hadn''t come to visit and bumped into him, he might have disappeared long ago. Song Jitao whispered: "Young Patriarch, by coincidence, the family that caused the trouble also lives in Fengning Hutong." "What a coincidence?" Song Jin narrowed his eyes slightly, "What else can I find out?" "Not yet." Song Jitao asked again, "I only know that the family is not very popular in the neighborhood. Do you want to send someone to find out more?" "I just kept the person without thinking too much. Now that I think about it, it is indeed wrong. It''s okay to cure the person. But if the person is not cured or something happens in the process, who will bear the responsibility? Doctor Jing?" The more Song Jin thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Judging from Doctor Jing''s request for the wine centipede, it seems that he has been treating the patient for free for some time. Why are you making a fuss now? They live together, right? Who would believe it when I said earlier that I didnt know the old man spent money to see a doctor? At first, I thought it was a gangster who was causing trouble. He ran away as soon as he saw an official official, leaving the patient behind. What if there was a conspiracy behind it? Song Jin immediately ordered Song Jitao: "Go to Mr. Jing''s apprentice and ask him to calculate how much money Dr. Jing spent on treating that family during this period. Then take the receipt to the Yamen to file a case and tell him about the good deeds done by that family." Spread the word." "Okay, I''ll do it right away." Song Jitao''s eyes were bright, and he immediately went to find Dr. Jing''s apprentice and told him about the possible hidden dangers. Doctor Jing''s apprentice was also very calculated. When he heard that his master might be involved in a lawsuit, he immediately cooperated. The two hurried to the Yamen. On the way back and forth, I would sigh when I met an acquaintance from Fangshi. Lets talk about what the family did today. Everyone sympathizes with Jifang Pharmacy and Dr. Jing. They have done good things and still have to be blamed. Song Jin just took precautions first, but didn''t know that he was mistaken. The news quickly spread to Liu''s Medical Clinic on West Street. A wing in the hospital for doctors to rest. A fair-looking middle-aged man was talking to the car manager. Chapter 284 The Liu family stared at the drug store Chapter 284 The Liu family stares at the drug store The fair middle-aged man is the sitting doctor. Born in the Liu family, his name is Liu Guangrun. He is the person in charge of this medical clinic and the eldest son of Imperial Physician Liu. In terms of medical skills, he can only be regarded as average. However, he felt good about himself and felt that his medical skills were on par with his father''s. However, his father did not allow him to enter Tai Hospital, so he could only be the owner of the hospital. Liu Guangrun said with an angry face: "You said Jifang Pharmacy went to the Yamen to report the crime? When?" "Just now. Not only did I report the crime, but I also brought a receipt, which is more than ten taels of medicine money owed by the patient. Uncle, do you want to continue?" "Go on! As long as the person dies in the medicine shop, he can bite Jifang hard." Liu Guangrun said sinisterly, "Have you made an agreement with that family?" "It''s been agreed." Manager Che immediately agreed, "As soon as the old guy dies, his family will go to the Yamen to report the case. Then spread the news about Jing''s death, and see who dares to seek medical treatment from him?" It is difficult to get out of a life-threatening lawsuit. Liu Guangrun asked again: "Jifang Pharmacy, hasn''t it been found to be related to the fleet?" "The drug store is owned by Song Jitao, the youngest son of the Wanping Song family. I heard that the Song family hooked up with an Huizhou merchant and got a lot of rare goods. There is a Sihai Pavilion under their name, which specializes in selling goods from overseas. They often sell Produce some expensive spices..." The local merchants doing business with Xing Lun are not only the Wanping Song family. Liu Guangrun didn''t care. I happened to focus on a small drug store. In addition to Doctor Jing''s medical skills, the quality of the medicinal materials in the drug store is first-class, almost the same as what Xing Lun sells. Xing Lun made a move for the Liu family. Liu Guangrun has always been worried about it. Not long ago, Dr. Jing actually cured a patient that he could not cure. This was equivalent to a provocation to him. Therefore, Jifang Pharmacy and Dr. Jing were targeted. Its just that the parties involved dont know yet. For example, Song Jin was sitting in the tea room of the medicine shop. While sipping tea, I thought about things. Qin Qi stood guard at the door and saw Song Jitao returning with two official servants. The official came here to understand the situation. After we got to know each other better, we decided to go to Fengning Hutong. "I''ll go with you." Song Jin wanted to meet the family in person. Mainly because the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. So when Song Jitao was about to go out with two official servants, he found Song Jin walking out of the tea room and offered to follow him. "Master, are you going too?" Song Jitao asked tentatively. Song Jin said: "You can treat me as if I don''t exist. I just want to see with my own eyes how dark the heart of someone who can abandon his father is." Song Jin, dressed as a man, is very young. Due to his height, it would be an exaggeration to say he is a teenager. At this time, Song Jin said this with a youthful spirit, and it would not arouse suspicion. Two official errands were managed by Song Jitao. The group of people headed towards Fengning Hutong. At the entrance of the alley, Song Jin passed by Ding''s noodle stall. Ding and his son were busy, but there was a little woman squatting in the corner washing dishes. Song Jin deliberately came closer and happened to see the other party working, with his slightly rolled up sleeves and half of his exposed arm suddenly seeing a bruise. The little woman always lowered her head and could not see her face clearly. Soon. Arrive at the door of that family. After knocking on the door for a long time, it never opened. After asking the neighbors, I found out that the family was visiting relatives. It was clear that he was going to send the old man to the drug store. I was afraid that the drug store would send people back, so I simply avoided it. The official asked the neighbor about the whereabouts of the family, but the neighbor couldn''t tell clearly. "Such an unfilial son should be arrested and beaten by the Yamen." Song Jitao, who followed, said angrily. The official next to him glanced at him and said, "There are a lot of things going on. If the yamen has to deal with every issue, it won''t be able to handle it. Unless an old man comes to the yamen to complain." There are clear provisions in the law governing unfilial behavior. But it has always been the case that the people do not take action and the officials do not investigate. No one complained to the government, and the government ignored it. The official looked at Song Jitao and Song Jin as if they were being taken advantage of, "Don''t be so stupid next time. You are running a medicine shop, not a charity shop." Isn''t it stupid to treat someone without paying money? Song Jitao smiled awkwardly, "I won''t do it next time. Hey, it''s Dr. Jing who can''t bear to see the patient suffer." "We still need to talk about this matter, wait until they come back from visiting relatives." The official had no intention of asking about the family''s whereabouts. Song Jin really wanted to say something. She was not the one who was taken advantage of, but Dr. Jing. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The best she could do was provide a patient room. Doctor Jing was a very principled person. At that time, Song Jitao said that he did not want him to pay for the medicinal materials, but he insisted on paying for it, saying that it was his personal matter. On the contrary, this family hid so quickly that it was difficult for Song Jin not to suspect. When leaving the alley. Song Jin gave Song Jitao some instructions in a low voice. Song Jitao immediately asked officials to join him in the restaurant. Then Song Jin and Qin Qi left. Go back home to Cuihua Hutong. Qin Qi told Old Man Hong about the Ding family''s affairs. Old Man Hong took out a secret letter and asked her to pass it to Song Jin for review. "Madam, Uncle Hong told you that it''s suspicious that the family went to the drugstore to cause trouble. It''s best to investigate clearly." Qin Qi told Old Man Hong what he said. Song Jin found out after reading the secret letter. The Ding family is indeed not simple. A good wife died in the past twenty years. The main reason is that the secret guards secretly found a secret passage in Ding''s house and are currently investigating the situation of the secret passage. Song Jin handed the secret letter back to Qin Qi, "Uncle Hong has a lot of things to do. I have already made arrangements for the medicine shop, so I won''t bother him anymore." "Okay, my subordinates will tell you now." After Qin Qi left. Song Jin went to the kitchen again. Ask the cook to make a tonic soup for Qin Chi. I made chicken soup specially for Qin Chi. It was approaching evening, after the time for going to the Yamen, but Qin Chi and the others were still nowhere to be seen, so she knew that they might be too busy to leave, so she simply packed the chicken soup and sent it to the Ministry of Works Yamen in person. When they passed by, Song Jin put on women''s clothes again. Qin Qi also took off her disguise and put on the maid''s dress. The man guarding the gate heard that he was looking for Qin Chi and immediately went in to report. In no time, Lao Huo came out and led the two of them in. When he saw Qin Chi, he was busy in the warehouse. When Song Jin came over, Qin Chi was still too busy to raise his head, "Why do you have time to come here, madam?" "If I don''t come over, you''ll have to work hungry again." Song Jin glanced at the pile of ledgers on the case, "Are you checking the accounts?" "Yes, check the accounts." The first thing Qin Chi had to do was to find out the accounts of Yu Heng Division. "I don''t want to be tricked as soon as I took office. Fortunately, Yu Heng Division''s account books have been sorted out during the investigation of the corruption case, which saved me a lot of money." trouble." Now we just need to check them one by one. It is important to check the accounts and inventory. If you dont check, you wont know. Lets check this. There is nothing wrong with the ledger, and the numbers are done beautifully. There is a big problem with the inventory! Chapter 285 Both the people and the people got the stolen goods Chapter 285: The person and the stolen goods Qin Chi is taking inventory of the warehouse. After the inventory was completed, he wrote a memorial and handed it to Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. No matter whether Emperor Mingcheng pursues the matter or not, as long as the matter is not pinned on him in the future. However, these are official matters and Qin Chi cannot bring them up to Song Jin. He sees Song Jin serving a bowl of chicken soup. He took it and took a sip. The warm chicken soup made his empty belly feel much better. Qin Chi sighed in his heart, "Thank you for your hard work, madam. This soup is so delicious." "I''m just going to work as hard as I can, but my husband needs to take care of himself." Song Jin brought not only chicken soup, but also a dozen sesame seed cakes when she came this time. She specially asked Chef Feng to make them. She took out one Passing it to Qin Chi, he said in a warm voice: "My husband, please eat another sesame seed cake to cushion your stomach." Qin Chi smiled lightly, took it and took a bite. After chewing slowly, he took another sip of chicken soup. Next was a bite of chicken soup and a bite of pancake, which was very delicious. Song Jin sat quietly aside. When he finishes drinking the chicken soup, give him another bowl. Husband and wife get along naturally, very warm and harmonious. Anyone who sees them will feel that the relationship between the two is deep. Qin Qi called Lao Huo and Qin Ba. Point to the sesame cakes and let them eat them. Qin Ba glanced at Qin Chi and Song Jin, smiled, and whispered: "Ah Qi, the young master and the madam didn''t say anything, right? I just looked a little bored and panicked." "No one will think you are dumb if you don''t speak." While Qin Qi was cursing in a low voice, he did not forget to point at the other three people not far away who were pretending to be blind. Qin Ba grinned silently, "It''s Yu Hengsi''s Yuanwai Lang and the two principals. I''ll give them some cakes later." He grabbed three big cakes with his big hands Then he walked towards the three of them with gentle steps. Qin Chi and the others stayed to work voluntarily, but Yu Hengsi''s Yuan Wailang and the two principals were forced to do so. The superior officer immediately has no subordinate office. Do they dare to leave first? The last one was convicted in front of Qin Chi and was still in prison. As they worked, they drank in the aroma of chicken soup and sesame cakes. This is the first time to see Song Jin. It was surprising to learn that she was Qin Chi''s wife, and the three of them were excitedly gathering together to gossip. "Mr. Qin, regardless of his talents and talents, he is top-notch in terms of appearance. Why did he marry a wife with an ordinary appearance? It seems that the relationship between the two is not bad." Manager Zhang guessed whether there was something hidden. Another manager was equally puzzled, "I heard earlier that Mr. Qin hid his wife very deeply and did not let her go out to socialize. At that time, I thought she was a beautiful concubine. I didn''t expect that she looked so ordinary. The maids around my wife are even better than She has a beautiful appearance." "You think you are a superficial person, don''t you see that Mrs. Qin has a very good temperament?" Yuanwailang scolded him with a straight face and lowered his voice. It''s just that the intensity of the reprimand is not very lethal. The two principals laughed. The three of them were quite surprised that Qin Chi married an unattractive wife. The two of them were incompatible at first sight. Depending on the situation, the relationship is very good. Yuan Wailang sighed softly again, "For this reason, I admire Qin Zhuangyuan a little. As the saying goes, how do scholars get their hearts broken? There are many scholars who abandon their useless wives once they become successful." The three of them talked happily. But he stopped abruptly as he spoke. They all looked behind them and saw Qin Bazheng looking at them with a smile on his face. He took a bite of sesame seed cake and said incoherently: "Say, the three adults continue to speak. I am listening fascinated. Wait." Ill mention it to the young master next time. "No, brother! It''s us who are so mean-mouthed. Damn it." Manager Zhang apologized repeatedly and patted his mouth. Soon, his stomach rumbled. Suddenly there was silence again. The three of them are not familiar with Qin Chi, mainly because they haven''t been together for a long time, but they are familiar with Qin Ba. Regardless of how many hidden thoughts there are, at least they are familiar with each other on the surface. Qin Ba handed over the sesame cakes and said, "Don''t say I''m not thinking about you. Eat it quickly." "Then I''m welcome." "Thank you, brother." "It''s better that you show loyalty." The three of them took the cake and ate it without any hesitation. While eating, the three of them looked at the food box on the table not far away. Qin Ba said disdainfully: "Don''t even think about chicken soup. It''s a tonic soup specially made by my wife for my husband. I want to drink it and ask your wife to make a pot of it when I get home." Director Zhang stepped forward and put his arms around Qin Ba''s shoulders. "Brother, tell us about your master and your wife. How did they meet? They seem to have a good relationship." "What''s there to say? It''s a marriage arranged by the elders." Qin Ba left this sentence and said nothing more. No matter what they say, they just won''t mention it. As a qualified long-term attendant, you should not talk too much about the master''s matters. Qin Chi would not go back so early and advised Song Jin to go back and rest first. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin couldn''t bear to stay and delay his work, so he went back with Qin Qi first. When we returned, it was already dark. A lantern hung in front of the carriage for lighting. Driving around on the street, it looked very intrusive from a distance. At this time, it was almost curfew. Qin Chi and other officials did not have to worry about returning home late. If ordinary people were caught by patrolling soldiers, they would be imprisoned without saying a word. Just returned home to Cuihua Hutong. Feeling that the door is ajar. When I entered, I was surprised to see Doctor Jing and his apprentice. Song Jin was surprised, "Why is Mr. Jing here free?" "Madam asked knowingly." Doctor Jing smiled bitterly, "I didn''t expect my old friend''s son to be so cruel. Ten taels of silver was enough to buy his father''s life." What didn''t Song Jin understand when he saw this? "Is there really a thief who went to the drug store?" "Two gangsters sneaked into the drug store and were about to commit murder when they were caught by shopkeeper Song and the officials. They were already taken to the Yamen." Doctor Jing was informed of the other party''s plan by Song Jitao. At that time, he thought it was impossible and wanted to put in a good word for his old friend''s son. However, Song Jitao didn''t care whether he believed it or not, or what to do. For Song Jitao. Just follow Song Jin''s instructions. He moved the patient to another room and asked him to pretend to be sick and lie down on the bed, waiting for the thieves to sneak in and commit murder. People have stolen and gained, and they can''t even defend themselves. After hearing what Doctor Jing said, Song Jin said, "You are also tired today, so just rest here for the night." "Excuse me." Doctor Jing saluted politely. Song Jin smiled lightly and said, "We are all one family, but Mr. Jing is too polite. I will ask the kitchen to cook you a midnight snack later." Doctor Jing was grateful and thanked him again and again. "I''ll take you to the guest room." Old Man Hong stood up at the right time and took Doctor Jing and his apprentice down to settle them. Qin Chi and the others haven''t come back yet, and the family''s manpower is limited. He is the only one suitable to entertain Doctor Jing in the evening. Song Jin turned to Chef Feng. Ask her to cook a midnight snack and deliver it to the guests. Later, Song Jin went to the small teahouse in the backyard. He took out a small bamboo tube from the cloth bag hanging in front of the window. He took out a piece of paper from the bamboo tube and wrote on it what happened in the drug store today. The cause and effect were investigated clearly. Chapter 286 What a big deal! Chapter 286 is a big deal! In the guest room. Old man Hong stared at Doctor Jing with cold eyes. Doctor Jing was under great pressure from being stared at by him. Old Man Hong was quite dissatisfied with what he had caused, "If you let the young master know that you almost got the madam in trouble, I''m afraid you won''t get any good results." "When the young master comes back, I will go and plead guilty." Doctor Jing wiped away cold sweat. I had good intentions to save someone, but I didnt expect that I could also save someone from trouble. This was something he never expected. "Thanks to my wife''s astuteness this time, I noticed something was wrong in time." "Tell me the specific situation." Old Man Hong only knew a general idea and didn''t know the process. Doctor Jing said: "Madam went to Fengning Hutong with the official mission, and it happened that the family went to visit relatives..." Song Jitao''s statement was given by Song Jin. The first is to find the family and ask for the reason. The second is to invite you into the urn at night. When the official came to investigate, the family said they were visiting relatives, but they actually stayed in a small inn in Xicheng. Song Jitao arranged for someone to detain the family. At first they refused to confess, but after a beating they became honest and confessed that the person behind the scenes was the manager of the car. He also said that he would give his family ten taels of silver if things turned out well. With only ten taels of silver, he sent his seriously ill father to die. This is really a filial son, he is so filial to me! Song Jitao took advantage of his plan at night and invited officials to ambush Fuzi and caught the murderer at the scene. Doctor Jing added: "Song Jitao said that he would also hire a lawyer to sue the Liu family for seeking wealth and murder." "If this matter gets serious, the Liu family will most likely appoint a steward to take the blame. That steward is the most suitable candidate." Old Man Hong is very familiar with the style of powerful people. Even if Manager Che doesn''t want to take the blame. The lives of his whole family, young and old, are in the hands of the Liu family. Old Man Hong was silent for a moment and then said: "Things have happened one after another recently. The last one has not been solved yet, and this one has come again. Madam simply sent the thief to the Yamen to solve it. I am afraid she does not want to trouble us, but the Liu family Dont even think about getting away easily. For a moment, Doctor Jing was ashamed. After all, it was him who caused this. At the beginning of Haishi. Qin Chi returned home from the Yamen. When he came back, he heard from Old Man Hong that the drug store was almost plotted by the Liu family. Qin Chi pondered for a moment and then said: "If you report what the Liu family did to Zheng Yushi, you must make it clear. The case has already been reported to the Yamen. He will most likely refer to Liu Bingzheng''s book." "I''ll let someone do it right now." Old Man Hong knew that Qin Chi was going to make things big. Talked for a while. Old Man Hong changed his voice and mentioned the secret passage in the Ding family, "Sent people in to explore it. It is connected in all directions. The exploration was not completed for a while, but it can be found from the signs that people often walk in the underground passage." Qin Chi showed a solemn look when he heard this, "This force is not simple. If we continue to investigate, we must find out clearly." Start with Song Jin from the other side. He is destined to be their enemy. Qin Chi went back to his room after freshening up. Song Jin was already asleep on the bed. He walked lightly around the screen and came to the bed. He took off his coat and put it on the screen. He took off his shoes and went to bed. He gently put down the bed curtains and lay down next to Song Jin. As soon as I lay down, the person next to me woke up. "Did you wake up my lady?" Qin Chi asked softly. Song Jin asked gently: "What time is it?" "Hai Shi." Qin Chi said apologetically, "It''s my husband''s fault, I shouldn''t have come home so late." "I shouldn''t have, I shouldn''t have neglected my body." Song Jin said deliberately with a straight face. Qin Chi chuckled softly, with great joy. He moved close to Song Jin and fell asleep with her waterfall of green hair on his pillow. It seemed that he could smell the unique fragrance of her hair while sleeping. It''s so reassuring. The next day. It''s a lively day. At the court meeting, Liu Bingzheng was read by Zheng Yushi, and his words were sharp and to the point. He described the Liu family as a group of people who exclude dissidents, seek wealth and murder, value money and profits, have no medical ethics, and disregard the lives of the people. The people in the court were shocked when they heard this. Coming, coming! Liu Bingzheng was furious when he heard this. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! He tried his best to defend himself in court and tried his best to clear things up. He also said that the Liu family was committed to practicing medicine to save people and had never taken innocent lives, etc. Immediately, the matter of Jifang Pharmacy was brought to the main hall. "impossible!" Liu Bingzheng still insisted on his opinion, "My Liu family never does anything harmful to nature. There must be someone behind the scenes to intentionally frame the Liu family. Your Majesty, please investigate this matter thoroughly." The case is true. Liu Bing was filled with anger and sincerity. The final result was that Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty paid attention to the case and ordered the governor of Shuntian Mansion to investigate it within three days. A moment passed. No ministers came forward. The **** in charge of the ceremony was about to say that if there is something to do, he will start to act, but if there is nothing to do, he will leave the court. Qin Chi stood up, saluted, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I have something to report." "allow!" Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty played it accurately. Qin Chi took out a memorial and said, "Weichen took over the Yu Heng Department of the Ministry of Industry. When he checked the accounts and inventory, he found that the number of inventory was correct, but the quality was ambiguous. For example, the cotton clothes to be sent to the army had something on the account. seven thousand eight There are more than a hundred pieces. After Wei Chen went to check them personally, he found that there was indeed this number, but there were only 1,300 new cotton-padded clothes. The rest were made up of worn-out cotton-padded clothes, as well as arrow feathers, farm tools, etc. Only the new ones were made. Accounting for about 20%..." Qin Chi''s clear voice echoed in the hall, causing the expressions of the two ministers from the Ministry of Industry to change drastically. The two looked at each other secretly. I can only grit my teeth secretly. Didnt he say that the inventory would be completed the day after tomorrow? They had arranged a backup plan but hadn''t used it yet, and now Qin Chi had brought it out on his own? This is a big deal! This phenomenon is very common in the Sixth Department and is the default operation among officials. Don''t the other officials know? Got it! Everyone is just pretending to be deaf and dumb, because some of the accounts are always kept in the accounts. For example, if a certain military camp needs two thousand new cotton clothes, the Ministry of Industry will say that it can only allocate one thousand, and the rest should be reserved for emergencies. . The name is emergency and cannot be used lightly. In fact, it just doesnt work. This bad debt did not occur overnight, and everyone who took it over accepted it by default. Everyone thought Qin Chi would also admit it. Unexpectedly, he was a stupid young man who stabbed Emperor Ming Cheng in front of him as soon as he took office. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty took the memorial and read it from beginning to end, his face was terrifyingly cold and solemn. The hall was extremely quiet. One by one, the ministers pretended to be quail, hoping that Emperor Ming Cheng would ignore his existence. Others thought that Emperor Ming Cheng would first attack the left and right ministers of the Ministry of Works. Unexpectedly, Emperor Ming Cheng first questioned the left and right censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, "Zuo Shuzhang, Yu Yuequan, tell me, I remember to investigate the Ministry of Works." Regarding the corruption case, the Metropolitan Procuratorate sent people to check the accounts, so why couldnt the problem be discovered at that time? Such a serious problem... How do you want them to answer? Are you saying this is a bad debt that has been left over forever, or are you saying they haven''t found it yet? No matter what answer you give, it is the crime of bullying! The two of them knelt down in shock. Chapter 287 Being tricked into being the target of public criticism Chapter 287: Being tricked into a target of public criticism The Metropolitan Procuratorate is responsible for supervision, impeachment and recommendations. Together with the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple, it is also known as the Three Laws Division. Qin Chizhong, the number one scholar, sued the Yuan family that day, which involved evidence of corruption by Yuan Shangshu of the Ministry of Works. The officials responsible for checking the accounts were the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. When Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty mentioned the Metropolitan Procuratorate at this time, he had a sense of settling scores after the fall. The Ministry of Industry''s bad debts naturally have nothing to do with the Metropolitan Procuratorate. But it is a fact that the person knew but did not report it. Emperor Ming Cheng sneered, "Are you mute? Answer me." "Your Majesty, the accounts of Yu Heng and the Qing Officials Department of the Ministry of Industry have always been like this. It must have been embezzled by someone." Yushi Zuodu replied bravely. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty asked gloomily: "Always? I just know today that the pillars of the imperial court that I promoted have always been those who deceive the king and ignore the superiors." "Somebody come!" Emperor Mingcheng suddenly stood up and said sternly. Suddenly, a group of royal guards came in from outside the palace. The expressions of all the Jin Yiwei officials changed when they saw them. Last time Mao Shaojie only took action from the Imperial Army. It would be a big deal if the Jin Yiwei were dispatched! Emperor Mingcheng angrily pointed at the censors of the left and right censors, and then the left and right ministers of the Ministry of Industry, "Drag these four down with me, with twenty imperial staffs, and they will continue to talk about what we were talking about just now." "yes!" Jinyiwei quickly detained the four people. Just when he was about to forcefully drag him out. "Your Majesty, no!" The Minister of Rites didn''t care and stood up quickly, "The four gentlemen are important ministers of the imperial court, and they are very old. Twenty sticks may kill them." "Um?" Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty turned his eyes sharply to the Minister of Rites, "Does the Ministry of Rites have the same bad debt?" The Minister of Rites'' face suddenly froze. The next moment he knelt down and remained silent. The other four ministers were about to step out to plead for mercy, but when they heard Emperor Ming Cheng''s words, they retracted abruptly. One after another, they knelt down. All the civil and military officials in the entire hall were as silent as death. Qin Chi suddenly realized something. He has been tricked, and today he has almost offended most of the civil servants in the court. As soon as he entered the court, he became the target of public criticism. It is indeed too tender! This may be Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty''s plan, or it may also be Yuan Shangshu''s plan. If Qin Chi doesn''t expose this matter in time, the bad debt will be borne by him in the future. Embezzling such a large sum of money. It''s enough to chop his head off several times! If Qin Chi was given a choice again, he would still choose to submit a memorial and expose the matter. Just walk and sit upright. Who should he fear? "His Majesty!" When the tension was so high that you could hear the needle drop, Qin Chi suddenly broke the silence, "Wei Chen has something to say." "That''s right." Emperor Mingcheng sat down again. Qin Chi said: "Several of the adults are really old. Not to mention twenty imperial staffs, ten imperial staffs cannot withstand it. If four ministers of the imperial court are destroyed at once, who will do the things they are responsible for? Therefore, I sincerely request you Your Majesty takes back his orders." After saying this, Qin Chi knelt down and bowed down. Emperor Mingcheng gave him an unclear look. All the officials in the court began to have thoughts. Qin Chi seemed to be begging for mercy, but in fact he was reminding some people that if something happened to the four adults, the official vacancy would be vacant, and the people below could fight for it. Officials who don''t think so. To be more simple, I think Qin Chi is a good person. In this case, he dared to plead for mercy. Obviously, it was an unintentional mistake to read this book today. It is understandable that the mistakes made by young and energetic people without anyone''s guidance can be forgiven. The most obvious ones were the four ministers who were being detained by the Jinyi Guards. Qin Chi begged for mercy as a favor. They don''t even want to express their gratitude. The situation where he was originally isolated, rejected, and even criticized by the public suddenly opened up to Qin Chi. The old foxes who hang out in the officialdom are nothing more than this. "I beg your Majesty to take back your order." Officials below stood up and knelt down to plead for mercy. When everyone saw it, it was Zheng Yushi. This man has a good temper and is upright. No one will think that he is being bribed. Then one after another civil servants came forward. Every one of them begged for mercy. "I beg your Majesty to take back your order!" "Your Majesty, please take back your order!" Within a moment, most of the civil servants knelt down, and the remaining few also knelt down. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! However, the military attache standing in the main hall was particularly conspicuous. The Duke, who stood at the top among the generals, bowed his hands and saluted, "Your Majesty, since it is a bad debt left over, let them each investigate it separately. There is no need to kill anyone." "Who will be responsible for the bad debt?" Emperor Mingcheng looked at Ning Guogong and asked. Duke Ning Guo rolled up his sleeves. He is a military general who is not as well-educated as civil servants and is not good at government affairs. He has a straighter mind and does not have the convoluted ideas of civil servants. When Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty asked, Ning Guogong coughed and immediately came up with a bad idea, "Your Majesty, as a minister, when you are in charge of your political affairs, whoever is responsible will be responsible, no matter what they use." The only way is to straighten the accounts so that Your Majesty cannot suffer any loss." Such a harmful idea would only be dared by a simple-minded general. Let the civil servants pay this bad debt. As expected of you, Lord Ning Guo. The civil servant who understood it immediately wanted to jump up immediately, cover Ning Guogong''s mouth, and beg him not to come up with bad ideas. Mr. Yang Ge on the side said seriously: "Ning Guogong doesn''t understand, so don''t talk nonsense, otherwise it will have something to do with His Majesty." "Old Fox Yang, don''t mess with me. This world belongs to your Majesty, and the money in the court is naturally your Majesty''s money. When you help your majesty govern the country, you are managing the accounts for your majesty. Take a look, all of this has led to bad debts. , If you have the ability to clean up the bad debt, you must also have the ability to close it, so as not to have to dig through the military pay. " "You, you old man are not ashamed..." Yang Gelao seemed to be angry when he was pointed at and scolded as an old fox. Ning Guogong didn''t take it seriously, the old **** was here. Well done, Mr. Guo! Qin Chi secretly admired. Not to mention this absurd theory, it just sounds reasonable. But Qin Chi didn''t want to think about it. How many days had he been the doctor of Yu Hengsi? Just as Ning Guogong said, if they were to settle the account, Yu Hengsi would only need 50,000 to 60,000 taels. He can take out the money, and he can also find a way to settle the account. But he doesn''t want to be taken advantage of! If we really do what Lord Ning Guo says, we will definitely be in chaos. It is often said outside that military attachs are not good at managing government affairs, and it is not without reason. However, the tense and solemn atmosphere in the main hall actually relaxed a bit when Ning Guogong interrupted. No matter what the civil and military officials say. The person who really made up his mind was Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Ming Cheng glanced at the kneeling officials as if looking at a dead man, and then looked at the Jin Yiwei, "Reduce the imperial staff in half and execute it immediately." "According to the order." The Jin Yiwei dragged the Imperial Censor and the Minister of Works down. After a while, people in the main hall heard screams outside. Who was in so much pain that he couldn''t help but cry out? It sounds very embarrassing. A little while later. After the cane torture was over, the four of them were in so much pain that they wanted to cover their buttocks but tried to hold it back. This is really indecent! They could only limp back into the palace and walk to their place. Everyone knew that Jin Yiwei was merciful when he was still able to walk after ten strokes of the stick. The four people passed by Qin Chi and glared at him secretly. The look in his eyes was extremely complicated, with gratitude and hatred at the same time. (End of chapter) Chapter 288 Will it tear him apart? Chapter 288 Will you tear him apart? Emperor Mingcheng asked: "Who do you think should be held responsible for this matter? And how should it be resolved?" There was silence in the main hall again. If this problem was so easy to solve, it wouldn''t be here now. Moreover, this bad debt was not what it is now at the beginning. It has grown bigger and bigger over time. "Your Majesty, this matter needs to be discussed later." Zuo Du procuratorate said tremblingly. Emperor Mingcheng''s gaze fell on him like a knife, "This trick doesn''t work for me, and I must come up with a charter today. If you don''t have a safe way, tomorrow I will issue an order to adopt Duke Ning Guo''s proposal. " boom! The heads of all the civil servants were buzzing. Even Ning Guogong''s eyelids jumped. He, he is just talking nonsense! Your Majesty is not really going to take that unreliable proposal, is he? Will these civil servants tear him apart in the future? Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty added, "Officials of the third rank and above will stay, while the others will retire. In addition, Qin Qi''an will stay." Qin Chi''s heart skipped a beat when he heard this. What is supposed to come will eventually come. The **** who presided over the ceremony sang a line to send off the Holy Emperor. All the civil and military officials came out to kneel down and pay homage to the emperor. They knelt down with their heads close to the ground and shouted respectfully: "Your Majesty, long live my emperor!" Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty left. Officials with grades above three were left behind. He could only watch other colleagues leave, and then target Qin Chi one by one. Not to mention the civil servants of the third rank or above, there are more than a dozen military attachs, each of whom is of high authority. At this time, Qin Chi was like a lamb straying into a pack of wolves. "My lords, please don''t blame me." Qin Chi bowed deeply to everyone and said, "I am a low-ranking official. I have no choice but to protect myself. I never thought that it would implicate others." "snort." The left minister of the Ministry of Industry snorted coldly, "What are you implying? Are you saying that someone among us wants to murder you?" "Your Majesty, please don''t dare to have such an idea. Don''t rush to get me." When Qin Chi said this, he said he was trying to distance himself from the situation but also hinted that he had a guilty conscience. There is no three hundred taels of silver here. When the others saw the two ministers from the Ministry of Industry, their eyes began to look bad. It was obviously a fight within the Ministry of Works, but it involved the entire court. Ning Guogong didn''t think it was a big deal when he watched the show: "Hey, Shilang Wang, there''s no need to hide it. No one here knows about the nonsense of the Ministry of Works. Old ghost Yuan is lucky. If anyone scolds him here today, He will drown in saliva." Wang Shilang was exposed to his face. If it had been anyone else, he would have attacked earlier, but it turned out to be Mr. Ning Guogong, a bastard. Someone soon came out to smooth things over and changed the topic to business, "Your Majesty will only give me one day to wait, and we should come up with a solution as soon as possible." "Yes, let''s discuss the business." Mr. Yang Ge stood up and said. It stands to reason that everyone should put their heads together, put aside their past grievances, and work hard to solve this problem, but it is strange that the various parties in the court get along well with each other. Every time they go to court, there are always various precautions and tit-for-tat confrontations. The most calm person today is probably Qingshui Yamen. The reason is that without oil and water, there will be relatively fewer bad debts. Qin Chi retreated to the edge without saying a word. Quietly listening to the arguments of various ministers. Ning Guogong glanced at him from time to time, as if looking at something rare, as did several other generals. We argued for an hour. The midday sun shines into the hall from the main door. Just from the light and shadow, it can be seen that it is already noon. At this time in the past, the court has already gone down, but today there are guards guarding the palace gate. There is no will from Emperor Mingcheng. No one can leave. If you are in a hurry, you can only tell the eunuchs in the palace and let them lead you there, and you must follow them all the way. It''s no different than watching a prisoner. The ministers were arguing in the palace, but there was an explosion outside the palace. "What did you say? My husband was detained in the palace?" Song Jin panicked for a moment when he heard the news, "What happened? Tell me quickly." Song Jin just walked into the hall. I heard someone reporting to Old Man Hong. Things in the palace could not be concealed, and all the officials from the third rank and below left the hall. As for why Qin Chi, a fifth-rank official, stayed, I heard that it was Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty who asked him to stay. Song Jin suppressed the eagerness in his heart and asked in a calm voice as much as possible: "Is there any danger in meeting each other?" "That''s not the case." Old man Hong knows the danger and is the follow-up. But not under Jin Yiwei''s eyes. After a while, Song Jin also knew what happened in the court hall, and couldn''t help wiping cold sweat from Qin Chi, "Uncle Hong, do you think we can negotiate a charter today?" Old Man Hong said: "It depends on the situation. His Majesty may be able to create one under coercion. Otherwise, don''t talk about it in a day, even if you give them a month, it won''t happen." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin agreed with Old Man Hong. Human abilities are forced out. As long as Emperor Ming Cheng puts enough pressure, they might actually be able to come up with a solution when it comes to themselves. Knowing that Qin Chi would not be in danger, Song Jin became less worried. When asked about the Liu family''s plan to frame Jifang Pharmacy, she had already asked people to publicize it on a small scale outside, which reminded people of the case of being raped last month. The drug dealer who was "forced away". With the former, this matter broke out again. Most of the people who heard it believed it. "With this matter in the palace, the bad things done by the Liu family are less conspicuous." Song Jin actually felt that it was not a bad thing. This control is just right. If Old Man Hong didn''t say anything, he had other plans. Fu Yin is actually He Lianpu''s son. He Lianpu never asked him to do anything in these years. He just asked him to serve as an official according to his heart and not to lose his original intention. Old Man Hong asked someone to send the investigation results to Fuyin Yamen. Before the Liu family could react, they sent the direct descendants of the Liu family to prison to achieve the effect of knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger. So Fu Yin is particularly busy this morning. The perpetrator and the family member confessed first. Manager Che was arrested and brought to justice early in the morning, and Lord Fu Yin was interrogated immediately. Before the Liu family wanted Steward Che to take the blame, Steward Che confessed to Liu Guangrun. Within half a day, Liu Guangrun was in jail. All this happened before Liu Bingzheng left the palace. By the time Liu Bingzheng learned that he wanted to make amends, it was too late. The governor actually wrote the memorial and handed it to the palace immediately. In the past, this case would hardly have been presented to Emperor Ming Cheng. Compared with other major cases, this could only be regarded as ordinary. Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty sat in Wenyuan Pavilion. I can''t help but wonder if the governor of Shuntian Mansion has been replaced. When did the case go by so quickly? You know, he gave it three days. It only took half a day, but the case was finally solved? "Jixiang, has the governor changed someone?" Emperor Mingcheng suddenly asked. Ji Xiang lowered his head and said, "I''m not reporting back to Your Majesty." "Then tell me, why was this case handled so quickly?" Emperor Mingcheng did not believe that it was Fu Yin''s own decision. "Isn''t it going to be good soon?" Ji Xiang looked like he was guessing and said, "I wonder if Lord Fu Yin is hindering His Majesty''s divine power?" "Hahaha" Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty laughed out loud and threw the memorial back to the imperial cabinet after reading it. He immediately stood up and walked out. Chapter 289 Dinner with His Majesty Chapter 289 Dinner with His Majesty "Your Majesty, it''s time for lunch." The accompanying **** reminded. Emperor Ming Cheng paused slightly and looked back at the eunuch, "Unknowingly it''s noon again. Go and ask Qin Qian to come and have dinner with me." "Slave, let''s do it now." The **** bowed and took a few steps back, then turned and left. The ministers in the court were blushing because of the argument. When they saw the imperial eunuchs coming to invite Qin Chi to have dinner with Emperor Ming Cheng, they were all extremely quiet. When Qin Chi left behind the eunuch. He didn''t look back, but he clearly felt the light of the sword on his back. Following the imperial eunuch, they came to a palace with carved beams and painted pillars. In the hall, smoke curled up, and the maids dressed in uniforms laid out place mats and porcelain plates with ease. "I pay my respects to Your Majesty." Qin Chi stepped forward and bowed in salute. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty wore a dragon robe, which was majestic and somewhat leisurely. He motioned Qin Chi to sit down with his eyes. The emperor''s chopsticks are made of precious ivory, which is delicate and smooth, the bowl is made of white jade, and the porcelain plate is made of blue and white, which is elegant and delicate. The meal was sumptuous, including soft stewed wild ginseng chicken soup, fresh East China Sea yellow croaker, and fragrant palace roast duck. Every dish seemed to contain full sincerity and appreciation for the courtiers. This was not the first time that Qin Chi accompanied Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty to eat royal meals. When he was studying in the Imperial College, Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty heard someone mention him and summoned him once. That time he chatted and played chess with Emperor Ming Cheng. Afterwards we had lunch. The dishes at that time were not as rich as they are now. The maids whispered softly and poured plum wine for the two of them. The wine rippled slightly in the crystal glass, exuding an alluring fruity aroma. Emperor Ming Cheng raised his glass and said to Qin Chi with a satisfied smile on his face: "Qin Aiqing, I specially prepared this for you. I hope you won''t be polite." Qin Chi saluted respectfully, held up the wine glass with both hands, his face showed gratitude and respect at the right time, and softly replied: "My lord, thank you for your grace." Say so. Qin Chi was thinking in his heart, is this a trick and giving another sweet date? He always had the feeling that Emperor Ming Cheng sent him to the Ministry of Industry because of the current situation. In the past, Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty could also be called the Lord of the Ming Dynasty. There are absurd things, but there are also achievements. As we get older, our tempers become louder and more unpredictable, and we act more and more as we please. For example, the last ridiculous thing was that Yuan Shangshu should have committed the serious crime of ransacking his house and beheading him, but he only solved it by sending his granddaughter to the palace. What happened last time was that the state treasury was used to build a temple. The **** enshrined is the golden body of Emperor Mingcheng himself. I dont know what it means to waste people and money. All because he had a dream of attaining enlightenment and becoming an immortal. Li Huarong opposed this matter and was dismissed from his official post by Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. The last thing that happened was that there was a draft at a young age, and all the outstanding ladies from the capital were included in the harem. As a result, the marriageable men could not find a suitable and satisfactory wife for a while, and they secretly complained. There are not only three thousand beauties in the harem. There is also a palace dedicated to several Taoist priests. What the Taoist priest was doing in the palace was not reported to the front of the palace. Some spies vaguely guessed it. However, no one dared to publicize such imperial secrets outside. Today''s matter of forcibly detaining ministers and forcing them to settle accounts is really not a big deal. During meals. The two ate together in silence. There is a tacit understanding and harmony in the air. Occasionally, the gentle footsteps of palace maids and eunuchs can be heard, as well as the melodious sound of silk and bamboo instruments in the distance. After finishing the meal, Emperor Ming Cheng put down his chopsticks with satisfaction and said to Qin Chi with a smile: "Qin Aiqing, are you satisfied with today''s meal?" Qin Chi quickly stood up and saluted, "Your Majesty is so kind to me, I am very satisfied with my meal." "Okay, step back." Emperor Ming Cheng spoke, and Qin Chi bowed and left again. After a meal, I can count the words on one hand. Even so, it is a great gift for the minister. This happened once. Qin Chi went back to the main hall. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! A group of ministers sat together and were still discussing. The eyes of the ministers who had not taken any water were all red. However, the look in Qin Chi''s eyes that he wanted to kill Qin Chi was not so obvious. This was a person whom Emperor Ming Cheng valued. "Qin Qi''an, do you have a solution?" A man with gray hair and bright eyes asked. Qin Chi raised his eyes and saw that it was Liao Yong, the Minister of the Ministry of War and the minister of the cabinet. He hurriedly bowed to Liao Yong and saluted, "Which of the adults here is not as experienced as the lower official? I can just stand aside and study. I will never dare to do anything in front of you adults." "You can just say what you want, why are you talking nonsense?" The Minister of War is also a military commander and speaks more directly. Qin Chi saw that everyone else was looking at him, seemingly waiting for him to speak. He spoke slowly as if he was being chased: "I can''t come up with the specific regulations. However, I may make a suggestion. " "When I was taking stock of Yu Heng''s inventory, I saw some old things piled up. It''s not that they can''t be reused. For example, old cotton clothes can be used by taking apart the cotton, cleaning, drying, and playing with it again. Although the quality is not as good as the new ones, They can be used after all, right? As for those discarded farm tools, they cant be wasted, you can Qin Chi has one more advantage than these ministers. He was born in the countryside and is used to seeing the suffering of the people. He knows that some of the old things accumulated in the inventory are good things for poor families. Therefore, a pile of discarded debris has a place to go after Qin Chi''s suggestion, which can be exchanged for some silver and reduce losses. As for the loss of silver, it is inevitable and we can only find other ways to make up for it. It is true that many ministers came from poor families, but after decades of being pampered, they have long forgotten the sufferings of the people, let alone the daily needs of the people. Someone recorded the suggestions, and then after everyone''s deliberation, the best ones were selected. Before the sun went down, I finally figured out a workable memorial. After discussing with Qin Chi for a day, the anger of the ministers towards him was inexplicably reduced by more than half. In addition, after being hungry all day, he had no time to talk to Qin Chi and hurriedly left the palace and returned home. The only person walking leisurely was probably Qin Chi after lunch. "Master Qin, aren''t you in a hurry?" A man''s voice suddenly sounded from behind. Qin Chi looked back and saw that it was the commander of the Jinyi Guards, "Sir Commander, I didn''t know it was you who came here, so I''m rude." "It''s my fault that I''m being rude. On His Majesty''s orders, I''m here to take you back to your home." The commander of the Jin Yiwei has an embroidered spring knife on his waist, and he looks like a murderous **** when he walks. Both the officials and the common people were seen staying away. Qin Chi really wanted to ask. What does your Majesty mean by this? Soon he realized it again. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty appraised his situation and was worried that he would be assassinated if he left the palace. He felt guilty and asked Jin Yiwei to send him home. He is really too hateful today. Just one memorial offended more than half of the courtiers. It''s quite capable when you think about it. Chapter 290 Give a little lesson Chapter 290 Give a little lesson The ride home was uneventful. However, news of Jin Yiwei escorting Qin Chi home still spread to various families. Yuan Shangshu Mansion, study room. Yuan Shangshu was in a good mood today and was talking to his staff about what happened in the court, "Qin Qi''an offended most of the officials today. Even if I don''t take action in the future, he won''t be able to go far." "Sir, your Majesty asked the royal guards to **** Qin Qi''an. He is also warning the people in the dark. He is protecting Qin Qi''an. No one will dare to attack Qin Qi''an in a short time." The staff member sitting closest to Yuan Shangshu said. His views were quickly shared by other staff members. But some people still speculated: "Will anyone among them take risks?" "I don''t think so." Another staff member pretended to be profound and said, "Qin Qi''an''s current situation is that he has offended most of the court. It just so happens that he has offended more people, which is beneficial to him. No one is willing to take the lead. You wait for me to take action, and I wait for you to take action. Over time, Qin Qi''an will be the one who benefits." Hearing this, Yuan Shangshu''s smile faded. Don''t talk about other people''s mentality. He had this mentality just now, thinking that others would naturally deal with Qin Qi''an without him taking action. Even he has the mentality of killing someone with a borrowed knife. What about others? I''m afraid those turtle grandsons are waiting for his move. Because everyone knows that the Yuan family and Qin Qian have a grudge. The more he thought about it, Yuan Shangshu lost his mood, "The current situation is still beneficial to us. Find a way to drag the Yang family down. Aren''t the Yang families supporting Qin Qi''an behind the scenes? Then send them to work. "That''s not possible. Pushing the Yang family towards Qin Qi''an, wouldn''t it give Qin Qi''an a boost?" "This is wrong. The Yang family is also at odds with us." "Mr. Yang Ge acts cautiously. It''s not easy to catch him." "If we couldn''t find it on him, we started with his son and nephew. His son was in the Ministry of Rites and learned the style of his father. It was difficult to find clues, so we looked into his nephew Yang Lingyu. During his tenure as the magistrate of Huizhou Prefecture, If you dont believe it, hes never done anything Yang Lingyu is now serving as Shaoqing in Dali Temple. It''s been a while since I was transferred back, but I haven''t had any outstanding political achievements yet. Yuan Shangshu said thoughtfully: "I heard about the murder case in Jinhai Hutong before. Dali Temple has been investigating it for so long. Is there any clue?" "It seems that nothing has been found. It is said to be a suspected vendetta." "Vendetta?" This is a joke. However, neither party showed their faces, no one''s interests were harmed, and no family members of the deceased came forward, so the Yamen just looked for names to fool them. Because it can be seen that Yang Lingyu''s abilities are limited. Yuan Shangshu immediately ordered people to go to Huizhou to investigate Yang Lingyu''s past affairs, and then asked people to make arrangements to teach Qin Chi a lesson. It''s okay that someone took action, but no one took action, making Qin Chi''s life too stable, and he couldn''t swallow that breath. No matter what Yuan Shangshu thinks. Qin Chi received enthusiastic care when he returned home. After Song Jin showed concern, it was everyone else''s turn, and then Dr. Jing checked his pulse and confirmed that he was fine, and everyone felt relieved. Wait for Qin Chi to have dinner. Then he made a pot of scented tea, sat in the hall and told everyone about today''s events. Mentioning the memorial that the ministers had worked so hard for a day to write, Qin Chi smiled enigmatically and said, "The possibility of adoption is not high." After Song Jin heard this, he said, "Isn''t it well written?" "Ha, according to the character of the man in the palace, the most likely thing is to adopt Ning Guogong''s suggestion." Old man Hong has eaten more salt than everyone present has eaten rice. Everyone looked at him unanimously. Song Jin''s eyebrows furrowed slightly, "Wouldn''t my husband suffer a loss?" "It''s not a big problem, it''s just a loss of money at most." Old Man Hong thinks that all the things that can be solved with money are small things. Everyone gathered for half an hour. It was completely dark outside, so they dispersed. Qin Chi returned to the dormitory after taking a bath. Song Jin was making the bed and clothes, and putting the clothes into the box. Qin Chi walked up to her and held her hand, handing her the folded clothes. "Ms., please rest early. You may still be busy tomorrow." Song Jin reminded gently. Qin Chi closed the box for her. He took her hand and walked to the bed. Qin Chi sat her down on the bed, put his hands on her shoulders, bent down slightly, and looked directly at her, "Madam, buy a maid for you. Qin Qi is a secret guard after all. She I cant do the work of serving people. "Okay, listen to my husband." Song Jin was confused. Looking at his movements just now, I thought he was going to say something important, but actually he just wanted her to get another maid? Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi sat next to her and put his arm around her delicate shoulders. "I heard that Uncle Hong mentioned that the matter at the drug store has been resolved?" "Uncle Hong said it was solved." There is no latest news about Song Jin yet. Qin Chi added: "Then we have to wait for a reply from the palace." Datian heard about this case, and the government still needs to wait for the emperor''s approval as to how the government will decide. Qin Chi reminded again: "The drug store has offended the Liu family, so your people should be more careful recently, so as not to be caught by the other party." "Okay, I''ll keep an eye out." If the uncle of the Liu family loses his money and goes in, the Liu family will definitely not let go of Jifang Pharmacy easily. Song Jin thought about it and said, "I opened a shop with the intention of providing a place for my family to stay, but now it''s not a good idea to do so. It fell into the eyes of my enemies so quickly." Qin Chi didn''t know how to persuade him. Do you think they are unlucky as a couple? Song Jin pretended to be relaxed and said: "It''s okay. In the worst case, I will close the shop." "I feel wronged, madam. It''s because I, the husband-in-law, am incompetent and can''t protect my wife in an upright manner." "What nonsense are you talking about? What does this have to do with you?" When Song Jin opened the shop, she did not use her own name. The shops were all under Song Jitao''s name, including the business in Huizhou, which was not under her own name. This is also the reason why many forces cannot find her. Everyone has something to do tomorrow. The couple turned out the lights early and went to bed. Early the next morning. Qin Chi had a minor accident on his way to the Yamen. Passing by a dark alley, two hungry wolf dogs with red eyes suddenly ran out of the alley and rushed straight towards Qin Chi and others. Lao Huo stood in front of Qin Chi. Take two shots with two swords, and the wolf and dog will die. Then he dragged him to the Yamen and asked the official to investigate, saying that someone deliberately attacked the court officials. The official went to investigate again, but no clues were found, so it naturally became an unsolved case. Since there was a court meeting yesterday, Qin Chi did not need to go to court today, so he went to the Yuhengsi Yamen of the Ministry of Industry. He first looked at what he had to do today, and after taking some time to deal with it, he handed over the remaining finishing matters to Qin Ba, turned around and left Yu Hengsi, and went to the Hanlin Academy. Just stepped into the Hanlin Academy. Qin Chi noticed that the atmosphere was unusual, and everyone seemed very busy. Chapter 291 Snoop for news Chapter 291: Snooping for news "Master Qin? Why are you here?" Wen Shidu said in surprise. When he called out, he was shocked to realize that he had made a mistake. He quickly stepped forward and bowed, "I have met Bachelor Qin and I made a mistake just now. Please forgive me." "No problem, no problem. By the way, I haven''t been to the Hanlin Academy for a few days. There happened to be nothing at the Ministry of Industry, so I came over to see if there was anything I could do." Qin Chi smiled and returned the greeting. Then, Qin Chi glanced around, "Everyone is busy?" "Oh." Wen Shidu''s laughter was very forced and he didn''t say much. Next. Qin Chi went to see Yan Zhangyuan. Yan Xianqing''s eyelids jumped when he saw Qin Chi, "You rare guest, why are you here when you have time?" "There is nothing going on at the Ministry of Industry. I came here to see if there is any work that I need to do. After all, I still have the title of bachelor of the Hanlin Academy." Qin Chi can be said to be the youngest bachelor in this dynasty. Yan Xianqing was speechless, "I won''t need you if anything happens. There are still a few bachelors in the Hanlin Academy. If His Majesty hadn''t asked you to accompany him, other bachelors would have been vying to appear in front of His Majesty." "Then I feel relieved." Qin Chi didn''t care at all about being robbed of his job. Yan Xianqing looked outside the door and saw that no one had pulled Qin Chi away. He whispered about Mao Shaojie again, "With Yuan Shangshu''s connections, he no longer suffered any physical pain, but he was dismissed from office." "Then he''s lucky. If something happens, he still has a father-in-law to help him." Qin Chi''s tone was deliberately sour. Yan Xianqing laughed loudly and pointed at him. From the look in his eyes, it was clear that everyone knew what he was talking about. People who work in official circles have some things that they dont need to say. As long as everyone understands. While chatting, the topic of Qin Chi stabbing Lou Zi came up. Qin Chi took the initiative to bring up the matter, "I feel uneasy. I don''t know how your majesty will approve it. There is no certainty about this matter, so I have been thinking about it." Hearing this, Yan Xianqing understood. This guy came here specifically to inquire about the news today. No wonder he came to Hanlin Academy. Don''t underestimate the Qingshui Yamen of the Hanlin Academy. Nine times out of ten, the people who know the trends of the imperial court the fastest are the officials of the Hanlin Academy. Yan Xianqing did not hide this, "His Majesty has sent a decree, and he has asked people from the Hanlin Academy to draft the document. Even if I don''t tell you now, you will know it soon." "Then why don''t you just tell me?" Qin Chi beat the snake with the stick, took out half a catty of pepper from his arms, and stuffed it into Yan Xianqing''s hand. Yan Xianqing sniffed it and raised his brows, "You have good connections. I''ll ask the butler to visit all the shops in the capital. Either it will cost me my life or it will be gone." Not available on the market. Erdao dealers have it, and the price is very high. Qin Chi smiled and didn''t reply. Yan Xianqing didn''t necessarily ask him to tell him the way out. He looked at the door again, and when he saw no one around, he whispered in Qin Chi''s ear. Qin Chi''s expression did not change at all when he listened, and it was unclear what he was thinking in his heart. Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty did not act according to reason. He did not adopt any of the memorials that the ministers worked so hard to write yesterday. Today, he issued a decree and prepared to let officials from the DPRK and China settle the bad debts. The documents are being drafted. The emperor has never done such a ridiculous thing in the history of the country. "The bad debts of each yamen are the responsibility of the yamen themselves. According to His Majesty''s wishes, the higher the rank of officials, the greater the amount of apportionment. Officials who cannot afford the money can use their future salaries to pay for it." Yan Xianqing wanted to say that he was worthy of the payment. It''s your Majesty, he is the only one who can come up with this idea. When the treasury was empty, spices and cloth were used to replace the salary. Nowadays, it is understandable to use things that are not needed in the inventory. Anyway, there are precedents for reference. In fact, the consequences of doing so are endless. The salary of the imperial court itself is not high, and it is not easy for officials to support a large family with their salary alone. If such an incident occurs again, it will almost intimidate some relatively honest officials to bend the law for personal gain, take corruption and accept bribes, and the impact will be very bad. Qin Chi left Yan Xianqing. Go find Lu Yanji and Lu Baizhou again. Sure enough, I saw the two of them drafting documents. Qin Chi thought to himself that Uncle Hong had indeed guessed it. Emperor Ming Cheng was more inclined to Ning Guogong''s proposal. Generally speaking, a far-sighted king would not do such a thing as killing the goose that lays the goose to obtain the egg. I left the Hanlin Academy with a heavy heart. Qin Chi returned to the Ministry of Industry. As soon as I arrived at the Ministry of Industry, I heard the news that Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty had approved the memorial of the governor and asked him to judge according to the law. Liu Bingzheng was involved. Due to pressure, the governor still sentenced Liu Guangrun to three years in prison. The other accomplices received similar punishments. This case became the fastest to be adjudicated in Beijing this year. The news reached the Liu family. When the old lady of the Liu family heard this, she was so angry that she fainted. The woman in the back house was in chaos. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Go and invite the master quickly. The old lady was so angry that she fainted when she heard that the master had been sentenced to three years in prison." There was an old woman who was serving the old lady and she quickly sent someone to inform her. Liu Bingzheng and others, who were discussing the matter in the study, were very angry when they heard the news. "Didn''t they tell you not to tell the old lady the news? Who leaked the news?" "Yes, it''s the eldest lady''s family." The attendant responded with a trembling voice. This made Liu Bingzheng angry to death. If his mother has any shortcomings, he will worry about it. During this period, officials need to return home to mourn, and their promotions and salaries are suspended. Therefore, he reminded the people in the house early not to spread the news to the old lady''s yard. The old lady usually loved his eldest son Liu Guangrun the most. Asking his entourage to get the medicine box, Liu Bing was going to diagnose and treat the old lady himself. The other men of the Liu family also followed. The second master of the Liu family asked: "Father, what should I do with my eldest brother? Do you want to take care of it and find someone to accommodate you?" "We have found all the people we should look for, who else can we look for? Now that His Majesty is paying attention to this matter, who dares to help at this time?" Liu Bingzheng was equally anxious. It''s not like he doesn''t have connections. It always felt like a waste to use it on his eldest son. Liu Bingzheng went to the back house. When the old lady woke up from the coma, he agreed to ask for help at the old lady''s request. Left the backyard. After Liu Bingzheng was entangled, he contacted the other party secretly. An hour later. A man came to Cuihua Hutong to look for Song Jin, and he took the back door. Song Jin met with someone in private. After the man saluted, he respectfully reported: "My boss, Liu Bingzheng''s eldest son went to a grocery store on West Street. He only bought a few things and left..." Of course there''s more to it than that. The grocery store was just a cover to convey the news, and Liu Bingzheng seemed to be planning to meet someone. After Liu''s parents left, the shopkeeper of the grocery store went out to a tea shop. It''s been half a cup of tea. The shopkeeper went to Yang''s Mansion and met the long attendant beside Mr. Yang Ge. "Yes, there is a reward." Song Jin was so happy that he took out a hundred taels of silver notes and said, "Go back and share it with your brothers." "Thank you boss for the reward." The man stepped back happily. Chapter 292 mask man Chapter 292 Masked Man After keeping an eye on the Liu family for many years, I finally found a clue. Liu Bingzheng and Mr. Yang Ge really had a personal connection, instead of relying solely on Song Jin''s personal speculation as before. Song Jin asked people to continue to watch, and even sent extra manpower for this purpose. The two met in a tea shop that night. The shopkeeper of the tea shop notified the two families on the grounds that there was new tea. Liu Bingzheng and Mr. Yang Ge happened to show up in a low-key manner and met in private again. If they don''t pay special attention, no one will know that they have been to the tea shop. Because of the guards around Mr. Yang Ge. It was difficult to get close enough to hear what the two had to say. The spies trained by Song Jin firstly need to ensure their own safety before exploring the target''s secrets, and the secondly are to be as concealed as possible. But it is true that the two met secretly. Song Jin also received the news that night, placed the note above the lamp, lit it, and then threw it into the brazier aside. "Look at the solemn look on Madam''s face, has something happened?" Qin Chi undressed and took off his belt, planning to rest. Song Jin said: "Liu Bing is meeting with Mr. Yang Ge tonight." "really?" Qin Chi suddenly became serious, "I didn''t receive any news from here." "My people were also discovered by accident." Song Jin did not say that since the first time she came to the capital, she had arranged for some people to keep an eye on the Liu family and the Yang family. Those people used various reasons to live near the Liu family and the Yang family, and they had become familiar faces. For example, there are several street vendors. There are also some people who open shops nearby, and some are local snakes. Among them, there are also people who look for opportunities to sell themselves into the Liu family and the Yang family. Qin Chi was not as generous as Song Jin. Shun''an Trading Company would not train spies like her, who would only focus on a few families and invest large sums of money regardless of the expenses. Qin Chi asked: "Madam, what do you think is the opportunity for them to meet? After all, they have almost no contact in these years." "It should be Liu Guangrun." Song Jin and Qin Chi looked at each other, their hearts like mirrors. Qin Chi suspected for a moment that Song Jin deliberately set up a drug store and deliberately let Xing Lun lose the Liu family''s face, just to lure the Liu family into action. He was waiting for today. With this thought in mind, Qin Chi also asked. Song Jin glanced at him strangely, "You think of me as a god, a prophet of the future." "What are you going to do next, madam? Do you need my help?" Qin Chi wondered whether he should let his people intervene. Song Jin said with a smile: "Liu Bing is in a hurry to see Mr. Yang Ge. It is most likely related to Liu Guangrun. He probably wants to ask Mr. Yang Ge for help. You must know that the pampered old man cannot survive three years in prison. No one gave him any medication, huh..." "Do you want to catch Mr. Yang Ge with evidence of bending the law for personal gain?" Qin Chi instantly understood Song Jin''s intention. Song Jin''s goal has not changed over the years, but because his enemies are too powerful, he can only hide in the dark and slowly pursue them. After Qin Chi pondered, "Your people may not be able to spy on what''s going on at the Yamen. I asked Uncle Hong to arrange for someone to keep an eye on it." "Okay, thank you for your service." Song Jin said with gratitude. Qin Chi took her hand and said, "It''s a heretic to say this. We are husband and wife. Husband and wife are one body." Husband and wife can also fly separately when disaster strikes. Song Jin''s embarrassing words were kept in his stomach and he did not say them out. And the other side. In front of Liu Bingzheng, Mr. Yang Ge asked his confidants to make an appointment with Fu Yin. He originally thought that Fu Yin would meet him, but unexpectedly Fu Yin declined on the grounds that it was too late. "I didn''t expect that he wouldn''t even give me face." Old Yang Ge was surprised. Liu Bingzheng was anxious, "What does he mean? Does he have to go against our Liu family?" "Brother Bingzheng, don''t be anxious." Mr. Yang Ge didn''t expect that he could still be so restless despite his age. He originally didn''t want to help Liu Bingzheng. A good knife must be used on the edge, but Liu Bingzheng told him that Mrs. Liu loved her grandson the most. If he had any shortcomings, the old man might not be able to bear it. People are getting sick. One mistake went wrong, and Liu Bingzheng wanted to kill Ding You. Then there will be trouble. Liu Bingzheng is very important in their plan. Mr. Yang Ge said: "Brother Bingzheng will go back and wait for the news first. It is difficult to change the verdict regarding your eldest son. It is not difficult to change the place. Wait for him to go to school for three to five months and then make some meritorious service. It will be exempted. Punishment is enough, the most important thing is that you have to remind him to behave as well as possible. " "This is natural." Liu Bingzheng left with many thanks. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Mr. Yang Ge then moved into another wing room. The decoration inside the wing is low-key and luxurious, which doesn''t match the ordinary building outside. Sitting at the head was a man wearing half an evil ghost mask. Sitting slightly behind him was an elegant scribe. Mr. Yang Ge respectfully knelt down and bowed to the man in the first place, "My subordinate Yang Zhengkai paid homage to the Lord and met Mr. Yan." Mr. Yan stood up to avoid this big gift, and said humbly: "Brother Zhengkai, the gift is too heavy, I can''t bear it." "Get up, we are all our own people, no need to be polite." The masked man at the top spoke. The other party looked at Mr. Yang Ge and said, "I haven''t seen you for more than ten years. You seem to be doing well." "It''s all thanks to the Lord''s blessing." It is indeed possible for Yang Gelao to be where he is today because of the support and planning of this person. Otherwise, how could he have reached the position he is today with his solitary courage back then. The masked man asked: "There was an accident in Fuzhou. Someone is targeting the Liu family. Our plan will be accelerated." "Subordinates obey the master''s orders." Mr. Yang Ge is loyal. The masked man praised: "You are good, very good." Mr. Yan also said: "Brother Zhengkai''s loyalty to the Lord can be seen from the sun and the moon." Then Mr. Yang Ge brought up the matter of Liu Bingzheng and the abnormality of Fu Yin. The masked man said nothing. Mr. Yan, on the other hand, said: "The behavior in this case does not seem to be Fu Yin''s doing. Instead, it seems that someone pushed him to do this, or the master behind Fu Yin has spoken." Mr. Yang Ge said: "Mr. Yan, what do you mean, the owner behind Jifang Pharmacy is so powerful that even the governor has to listen to him?" "The Liu family has hit a brick wall." Mr. Yan was very dissatisfied with some of the Liu family''s actions. If Liu Bingzheng hadn''t been a very important chess piece to them, he would have wanted to persuade his lord to abandon the Liu family. Elder Yang Ge asked for a few more words. Mr. Yan mentioned the eldest princess''s mansion, "The Song family of Wanping hooked up with the Prince of Chu. The medicine shop was opened by the youngest son of the Song family. Liu Guangrun was jealous that other people''s medical skills were better than his, so he wanted to plot against him. It''s really stupid. Mr. Yang Ge just heard the inside story. In my heart, I also felt that Dr. Liu''s son was stupid. There are many better doctors in the world than him, can he kill him? "Help him. Don''t let anything go wrong at the critical moment." The masked man spoke. Mr. Yang Ge agreed and did the same. After leaving here, Mr. Yang Ge went directly to the palace. I dont know who he met, but the place where Liu Guangrun was serving his sentence was changed the next day. Chapter 293 image Chapter 293 Portrait Prisoners sentenced to imprisonment are usually sent to a certain place to supervise labor. Some criminals are sent to quarries, some are sent to dig canals, and some are sent to build city walls, etc. Liu Guangrun was originally scheduled to be sent to other provinces to dig river channels. A **** from the Superintendent of Ceremonies came to the government office to deliver a message, and soon Liu Guangrun was sent to a quarry on the outskirts of Beijing to serve his sentence. If people are close, the Liu family can take care of them nearby. There are many spies in every house in the capital, and even the slightest disturbance may not be covered up. The place where the Liu family''s eldest son was serving his sentence was changed, and it didn''t take more than half a day for someone to receive the news. Song Jin, who was at home, also knew. What shocked her even more was another piece of news. After meeting with Dr. Liu, Mr. Yang Ge did not leave, but went to see someone else. The spies ventured close to the tea shop and lurked on the roof of a building. After Mr. Yang Ge left, about a quarter of an hour later, two people walked out of the side room. A man in a black robe wearing a mask, followed by a feather fan. Turbaned scribe. At first glance, the two of them were not ordinary people. Song Jin tightened her grip on Mi Xin''s hand. This person is most likely the mastermind she is looking for. "Wearing a mask...can''t you see the light?" Song Jin murmured to himself. Qin Chi went to the Yamen during the day. Old Man Hong didn''t know how well he investigated, so she immediately went out in disguise. The carriage was just about to approach Jifang Pharmacy. Qin Qi suddenly reminded, "My boss, there is someone watching outside the shop." "Let the carriage move on." Song Jin responded quickly. Qin Qi drove forward and passed the side door of the drug store. The drug store is temporarily closed for business due to the Liu family incident. Song Jin originally wanted to find Song Jitao. Looking at this situation, he was being targeted. Finally the carriage stopped in front of the back door of a wooden shop. Song Jin got out of the car and ducked into the wooden shop. In order to hide from others, Qin Qi continued to move forward with the carriage and went out from the alley at the other end. Song Jin just entered the backyard of the wooden shop. Then a low shout was heard. "Who is it?!" When the other party saw the visitor, he immediately said respectfully: "It''s my boss here. I''m sorry, I didn''t see clearly just now." "No problem." Song Jin waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, "Is the shopkeeper in the shop?" "Yes, I''m here to report it." After the man finished speaking, he hurriedly looked for someone. A moment later, a young man in his early twenties appeared. He came to Song Jin, saluted respectfully and said, "My subordinate Wei Yuan has met my employer." Wei Yuan came to Jingshun from Huizhou Prefecture, and his family was originally a medicine farmer in the Song family. One of the people Xing Lun selected from among the medicine farmers back then has been trained for so many years and is now able to take charge of his own business. "No need to be polite." Song Jin asked again: "Do you know how it is at the drug store?" "Shopkeeper Song just sent a message saying that he is suspected of being watched. My subordinates are about to tell you about this, so you came here first." Wei Yuan immediately thought that this place is not far from the medicine shop, and his heart skipped a beat. Surprised, "My boss has been to the drug store, right?" "Ah Qi noticed something unusual, so we didn''t go in." Song Jin followed Wei Yuan into a living room and continued, "You should pay more attention to the Song family in Wanping. I''m worried that the Liu family will take action against his family." "Don''t worry, boss, my subordinates heard that they visited the eldest princess''s residence not long ago." Song Jin was surprised by the news about Wei Yuan. Song Huaiwang was indeed capable. She just asked Xing Lun to give him a batch of overseas products, and he used this to open up connections. After chatting for a few words. Song Jin explained the purpose of coming here, which was to meet the spies who had seen the masked man and the scribe. Wei Yuan quickly called people over. The person who came was a teenage girl, wearing smart clothes, with healthy wheat-colored skin. She looked at Song Jin with clear eyes, "My subordinate Mu Ting has met my boss. I heard that you have something to do with me?" " "Yes, I have something to ask you." Song Jin chatted for a few more words. It was learned that Mu Ting had no father or mother and was once a wandering orphan. She was taken in by Xing Lun a few years ago. "I asked you to come over because I wanted you to tell me what those two people looked like, so I could try to draw them." Song Jin asked Wei Yuan to get pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Mu Ting regretted: "It''s a pity that I was far away at the time and couldn''t see their faces clearly. I only knew that they were not young." "It doesn''t matter, it''s okay to draw with charm." Song Jin took out a blank piece of paper and Ping Fu On the table, hold the pen and tap the ink with the tip of the pen. Asked carefully. Song Jin drew the masked man and the scribe according to Mu Ting''s description. There was no detailed appearance, just a general appearance. The focus was on painting the charm and temperament of each other. I drew one picture after another. Change again and again. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Mu Ting has a good memory. Describe the first impression of meeting the two people, and then make modifications based on Song Jin''s drawing. Revised all afternoon. When dusk came, Mu Ting finally said they were very similar. "Evil mask?" Song Jin remembered that he had appeared in Huizhou Mansion earlier, "This scribe is holding a feather fan?" The fan in the hands of literati is an elegant thing. Nowadays, when scholars go out to hold a fan, most of them are folding fans. Generally speaking, scribes who hold feather fans are almost all elderly. There was a double figure painting left behind. This painting of Mu Ting felt the most like to her. The remaining paintings were all thrown into the brazier and burned by Song Jin. "This is a secret and cannot be leaked." Song Jin specially added this sentence. Wei Yuan and Mu Ting responded cautiously. Song Jin took the portrait and left in a hurry. It was getting dark when he returned to Cuihua Hutong. As soon as he stepped into the dormitory, he saw Qin Chi. Qin Chi was sitting at the table, touching a blue and white porcelain tea bowl with his fingers. He was in a trance, until he heard someone pushing the door and entering. Then he came back to his senses, stood up and asked in a deep voice: "Madam, you are home late, is it useful to be late?" meal?" "No, let''s go to the kitchen and have a look." Song Jin went out in a hurry and went home in a hurry. Not to mention dinner, I also forgot to eat lunch, so when Qin Chi mentioned it, I realized that I was very hungry. Qin Chi said: "The kitchen has left food for Madam and Qin Qi." Song Jin nodded. Qin Chi poured her a cup of tea first. Song Jin handed the portrait he brought back to Qin Chi, picked up the fruit on the fruit plate on the table and ate it. Qin Chi gently opened the portrait. After watching quietly for a while, he asked: "Madam, who are they?" "After Mr. Yang Ge made an appointment with Dr. Liu, he went to meet these two people again." Song Jin had many guesses about the identity of the two people. In the end, it was just speculation and has never been confirmed. Qin Chi rolled up the portrait and put it in his sleeve, "The person in the painting must be much older than us. I will show it to Uncle Hong. He has seen all the dignitaries in the capital." "Go ahead, then. I''ll go to the kitchen and have a look." Song Jin finally realized that it was inconvenient not to have a maid around, otherwise she wouldn''t have to go to the kitchen now that she was tired, but would directly ask the maid to go to the kitchen to serve the meal. After Qin Chi went out. Song Jin changed out of his men''s clothes. As soon as he stepped out of the threshold and took a few steps, he saw Qin Qi walking quickly with a food box in his hand. After asking, I learned that it was Qin Chi who ordered it. Chapter 294 Sword unsheathed Chapter 294 The long sword is unsheathed Song Jin was having dinner. Little did he know that when Qin Chi showed the portrait to Old Man Hong, he would see the turmoil in his eyes. "Isn''t this possible?" Old Man Hong murmured, "Maybe it''s a bit similar." Qin Chi knew that he was probably thinking of someone, so he was not in a hurry to ask, and patiently waited for Old Man Hong to come to his senses. Old Man Hong said cautiously: "This portrait reminds me of the former prince, but what I remember the most is that the staff around him feasted in Jiangnan. Most literati liked folding fans. Even he was holding a feather fan, which was made of white crane feathers. The handle of the fan is engraved with Bagua pictures, and it is called the White Feather Fan. It is said that he admired Zhuge Kongming during the Shu Han Dynasty since he was a child. "Former prince?" Qin Chi was shocked, "The emperor has only established one prince today. He still lives in the East Palace!" There is no such thing as the former prince! Old Man Hong explained: "Your Majesty was not a prince before he ascended the throne." Qin Chi knew about this. Scholars all over the world may know this. It is said that there was a palace coup on the night of the late emperor''s death. Historical records record that the former prince poisoned the late emperor and plotted to usurp the throne. Emperor Mingcheng, who was only a prince at the time, and Prince Rui teamed up to rescue him and shot the rebellious former prince to death in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Calculating the time, thirty years have passed since the palace incident. Qin Chi had read this period of history in the Hanlin Academy. But history books are only written by the victors, and it is difficult to tell what the truth is. Qin Chi looked at Old Man Hong and waited for him to speak. Old Man Hong kept secret about the palace incident that year, "There are some things that cannot come out of my mouth. If you want to know if you see the prince in the future, you can ask him in person." He was with Prince Rui back then. I cant say that I know all the truth. I still have some 70% or 80% of it. However, a hush-hush order was issued about what happened back then. Qin Chi saw that he didn''t say anything and didn''t force him. Old Man Hong said solemnly: "I will let people continue to investigate this matter, but the tea shop mentioned by Madam and the secret passage in Fengning Alley seems to lead there." He thought of something and took out a roll of paper from the secret compartment. "This is a map of the underground tunnels investigated." Old Man Hong spread out the rolled up paper. The route on it looked like a spider web. Taking the entrance of the secret passage in Fengning Hutong as the base point, he drew a map of the secret passage extending in all directions. "We can''t alert the snake for the time being, so we explore a little slower." In fact, it''s not too slow. In just a few days, several secret passages have been found. One of them leads to the backyard of the tea shop. Qin Chi stared at the secret road map with a sharp look in his eyes, "Could it be them who plotted against my wife last time?" Old Man Hong said nothing. This one is obvious. "Is the former prince still alive?" Qin Chi stared at the portrait again and asked. Old Man Hong shook his head, "The former prince was killed on the night of the palace coup, and I was also there. The man in the palace was very cautious. Not only did he have his identity verified, but he also ordered his head to be cut off, eliminating the possibility of fake death." So many people were present. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty not only asked one or two people to verify his identity. Imperial power changes, brothers fight against each other, and brothers fight against each other. The winner is king and the loser dies, which is not a rare thing. Old Man Hong did not comment on this, and it was hard to say who was right and who was wrong. Qin Chi suddenly stood up and said, "If it''s true or false, let''s go and verify it ourselves." "Sir? What do you think?" Old Man Hong was surprised, "Do you really want to take the risk?" Qin Chi''s sharpness and momentum did not subside at this moment. He just glanced at Old Man Hong coldly and said, "Gather all the people, activate all the hidden lines in the city, and follow my orders." "As commanded." Old Man Hong said no more and left in response. Since arriving in the capital, Qin Chi has always been cautious and cautious, rarely taking such strong actions. The night is slightly cool. A dark cloak was draped over Qin Chi. The moment his face was covered, his aura no longer restrained. His eyes were firm and cold, like a leopard walking at night, full of murderous intent and determination. Qin Chi and Old Man Hong went out. Went to a large house in an alley in Xicheng. This is one of the footholds of the secret guards. "Are you ready?" Qin Chi asked. Qin Yi, who had not been seen for a long time, showed up and said, "Reply to the young master, all the notifications are in place." This activates all the hidden lines in the city. At this night, you can detect any slightest movement. Qin Chi directed people to start investigating. The first thing to check is the whereabouts of the so-called former prince and Yan Jiangnan. At present, the two of them must be hiding somewhere in the capital. If they cannot be investigated, they can only alert the enemy. "Work in groups of ten and enter through various secret passages. Don''t hold back when meeting strangers. You must find all the entrances and exits for me within an hour." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi must try to alert the other party. This method cannot be said to be effective. It can only be said to be a matter of luck. Facts have proved that Qin Chi is still lucky. Nearly a hundred secret guards sneaked into the underground passage and inevitably bumped into a hostile person, who was about to shout angrily. Without saying a word, the secret guard rushed forward and executed his killing move. It was still calm on the ground at night, but no one thought that there were several fights going on underground. Occasionally, if someone hears a sound in their sleep, they will think it is an illusion. A dove flew. After landing on the window sill, Qin Yi went up to catch the pigeon. He took off the scroll tied to the pigeon''s feet, handed it to Qin Chi respectfully, and then quietly stepped aside. Qin Chi opened the note and said, "You are in Zuixian Tower?" He placed the note in his hand above the light, lit it, and then threw it to the ground. After it burned until the writing disappeared, Qin Chi stood up and looked out the window with cold eyes. Pull the hood up. "Set off!" Qin Chi gave the order and strode out. The streets and alleys of the capital looked deep and silent under the dim moonlight. A group of people were like shadows, moving quickly through the winding dark alleys. Their target is Zuixian Tower. There is a deep courtyard behind Zuixian Tower. Usually few people come here, and no guests are received here. Occasionally, some people see brothel singers coming in and out, and the sound of silk and bamboo can often be heard. Therefore, it is rumored that this is the owner of Zuixian Tower, a place of enjoyment specially designed for himself. Qin Chi held a long sword, the tip of the sword shining coldly in the moonlight. When they surrounded the yard like ghosts. Qin Chi raised his sword and pointed silently. The tip of the sword pointed towards the courtyard. In an instant, the secret guards rushed into the courtyard from all directions like cheetahs pouncing on prey. There was obviously no sound, but the momentum was like a violent wave, unstoppable. The masters protecting the courtyard also noticed the enemy attack. Immediately launch a counterattack. Amid the flash of swords and shadows, the two sides fought fiercely. Each of them has a strong body, and their shots are fierce killing moves. The most shocking thing is that both sides are actually wearing faceless masks and wearing night clothes. At first glance, they are very similar. If an outsider comes to take a look, they must not be able to tell whether they are friends or foes. Under the night, Qin Chi was particularly conspicuous in his cloak. Chapter 295 The man behind the scenes Chapter 295 The mastermind behind the scenes Old Man Hong and Qin Yi put on masks respectively and guarded Qin Chi. Qin Chi stood on the outskirts of the fighting scene. An enemy happened to roll down to his feet. He swung out his sword and instantly cut the opponent''s throat. Blood splashed onto the bluestone floor. When killing someone, do it neatly. This time Qin Chi brought several times as many people as the other party''s guards, forcing the guards in the courtyard to retreat one by one, knocking one person away and directly smashing open the door of the pavilion in the courtyard. Suddenly, more than a dozen masked guards armed with knives emerged from inside, protecting the two men who appeared to retreat. The man wearing the evil ghost mask and black robe was the key target of protection, followed by the scribe following behind. Like Qin Chi, the two of them put on cloaks to hide their figures. A hidden weapon shot at the man in black robe. But in the middle, someone struck him down with a sword, and several guards immediately stood in front of the Lord. However, Old Man Hong''s hidden weapon that he used to withdraw towards the man in black robe was just a cover. Almost at the same time, a hidden weapon hit the scribe behind him. Lift the scribe''s hood. Mr. Yans face was clearly revealed. He quickly hid behind the guard and pulled his hood back up. As the man in black robe retreated, he looked keenly in the direction of Qin Chi. Qin Chi was hidden in the night. He could only see a figure standing there, but he couldn''t see clearly who it was. On the contrary, lanterns were hung high under the eaves, allowing the group of people to be under the light. The murderous aura and smell of blood around him became stronger and stronger. Qin Chi said nothing, but his aloof aura made people feel like a mountain of pressure. The ones who felt the deepest feeling were Qin Yi and Old Man Hong who were closest to him. The two of them knew that Qin Chi was angry without saying anything. Qin Chi lowered his voice and asked, "Did you see clearly?" "See clearly..." Old Man Hong was in disbelief, but he said firmly, "It''s them." People who are supposed to be dead are still alive? ! He would never believe it unless he saw it with his own eyes. Soon, the movement here alerted the officers and soldiers. Qin Chi sheathed his sword, turned and left. Old Man Hong knew that his goal tonight was achieved, "Withdraw!" Qin Yi blew the whistle, one short and one long, which spread clearly throughout the entire courtyard. The secret guards immediately stopped their pursuit and quickly retreated with the injured, leaving a few people behind to quickly clean up the scene. It''s like taking away all of Old Man Hong''s hidden weapons. By the time a large number of officers and soldiers came to surround Zuixian Tower, Qin Chi and others had already withdrawn. Only the bodies of a dozen of the opponent''s guards were left at the scene. This will be another unsolved case. On the way back, Qin Chi also ordered everyone to hibernate, break them into pieces, and hide. Its another sleepless night in Beijing. There was a lot of movement among the officers and soldiers in the city, and many people were alarmed. Qin Chi returned to Cuihua Hutong safely. He thought a lot along the way. Having previously learned that the Yang family, Liu family and Liu family were plotting to rebel, Qin Chi couldn''t figure out why they chose this path of no return. Tonight I learned that the real master behind the scenes is the former prince. It all makes sense again. Qin Chi went to the study to study ink and write letters. After the letter was written, he summoned a secret guard and warned: "Send this letter to Huangshan and hand it over to my uncle personally. If there is an accident on the way, don''t destroy the letter and don''t let it fall into the hands of others." " "Subordinates take orders." The secret guard took the letter with both hands and left. Old Li came over and said: "Sir, the third watch is almost over. You should take a bath and rest early. Hot water has been sent to the room." "Okay." Qin Chi stood up and left the study. Qin Chi stepped into the house. I saw Song Jin holding a book in his hand and sitting quietly under the lamp, lost in thought. Seeing Qin Chi coming back, he stepped forward to help him undress. When he got closer, he smelled the faint smell of blood. He couldn''t help but pause, and immediately helped him put his robe into the clothes basket. I have to wash it tomorrow. "It''s late at night, why aren''t you asleep yet?" Qin Chi asked with a slightly raised corner of his mouth. Song Jin glanced at him sideways, "Aren''t you also not back?" Qin Chi thought that his wife was probably waiting for him. He wanted her to go to bed early and not want her to be tired, but when he saw her sitting in front of the lamp, waiting for him until midnight, he felt very happy. "I''m going to take a shower later, help me get a set of clean clothes." Qin Chi went to the bathroom. Song Jin went to find a set of inner clothes for him and sent them in. Wait until he is washed and comes out. Not only was her long hair disheveled, it was also wet and dripping with water. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin hurriedly found a piece of clean cotton cloth and gently wiped his wet hair. From time to time, she could still smell the fragrance of soap locust on his body. "Madam, do you know who is in that portrait?" Qin Chi enjoyed the rare care and consideration from his lady. "My lord, please speak." Song Jin said softly. Qin Chi gave it up and said, "This is someone we can''t afford to offend." Unexpectedly, Song Jin disapproved and asked, "Since we came to the capital, who can we afford to offend?" Qin Chi''s smile faltered slightly. Although this is the case, dont say it next time. However, Qin Chi still told Song Jin about the grudges from thirty years ago, and the man behind the scenes they had been tracing, who was probably the former prince. Song Jin''s heart also condensed. The more powerful the other party is, the harder it will be for her to find her family. Song Jin lowered his eyes and asked: "Who did Mr. Yang Ge find to smoothen the relationship between the Liu family? I heard that he went into the palace and the matter was resolved when he came out." "It''s Admiral Feng, the Supervisor of Ceremonies." Qin Chi said directly, "If it hadn''t been for the dispute between Madam''s pharmacy and the Liu family, we wouldn''t have known that Admiral Feng was actually a member of Mr. Yang Ge, or maybe a member of the former crown prince." The admiral **** of the Chief of Ceremonies is in charge of all etiquette, punishments, and management of errands and hearings in the imperial city. Has considerable power in the inner court. If such a person is the former prince''s old subordinate, then there are many places where he can operate. Song Jin looked solemn and said: "I''m afraid the palace has become a sieve now. I can''t imagine how far the power that has been dormant for thirty years will develop." Thinking of this made me feel frightened again. "Ms. sir, do you want to talk to your grandfather?" Song Jin put the cotton cloth on the screen, then picked up a wooden comb to comb Qin Chi''s hair, one after another, carefully and patiently. "Based on my grandfather''s wisdom, I''m afraid he would have noticed it a long time ago. However, I have already written to my uncle." Qin Chi lay face to face on the bed, his head resting on Song Jin''s thigh. Song Jin was combing his hair. Then he changed another piece of cotton cloth and continued to rub Qin Chi''s hair gently, drying his hair bit by bit. The impending storm of the Great Xia Dynasty has taken shape. The opponent''s layout is so far-reaching that ordinary people cannot contend with it. It''s not that Qin Chi is trying to make others more ambitious. This is a fact! His maternal grandfather was a man far away and could not save a fire near him. At most it can only serve as a deterrent, but this effect is probably gradually weakening. To put it simply, the other party did not raise troops in the early years, and it was probably the northwest army that they were afraid of. However, no matter how scrupulous it is, after planning for such a long time, the time should be almost there. Often at this time. A single move affects the whole body. Prince Rui''s Mansion has long been in the midst of this turmoil and cannot avoid it. PS; The plot of the previous chapter has been modified. If you have subscribed to catch up or if you are confused, please refresh and read again. Chapter 296 Here comes the one looking for trouble Chapter 296 The troublemaker is here The next day. The murder in Zuixian Tower caused a sensation in the capital. Rumors spread, and according to insiders, the bodies carried out by officers and soldiers from Zuixian Tower were transported in several carts. Martial law began again in the city. Several departments in charge of public security in the city were called in and reprimanded to death, saying that if something like this happened again, they would be asked to resign one by one. Song Jin heard the gossip at home. Qin Chi went to the Yamen as usual. The two of them became low-key in unison. Qin Chi is like an ordinary fifth-grade doctor, going to and from the Yamen as usual, rain or shine. Song Jin was still a reclusive official wife, occasionally receiving neighbors who came to visit her. After the Zuixianlou case happened. The forces belonging to Qin Chi went into hiding that night. Song Jin also asked Song Jitao, Wei Yuan and others to stop all investigations and hide themselves. Each department patrols the city for suspicious persons, and various pharmacies and medical clinics are the focus, investigating whether there are strangers who have suffered trauma, etc. The fighting in Zuixian Tower was like that. It didn''t take much thinking to know that someone among them must be injured. The government wants to use this to find clues. Unfortunately, after an investigation, nothing was found. Not to mention the power of the former prince. Qin Chi has the medicinal materials provided by Song Jin, so there is no need to go out to buy medicine. In the end, Dali Temple conducted an investigation and concluded that this case and the case in Jinhai Hutong were committed by the same group of people. It''s just that many powerful families in the capital are confused. Where did the two forces come from in such a fight? They don''t have any news here. Many people took this matter to heart, but when they paid attention to the powerful families, no one saw any changes. What does this mean? It means it''s not them. The last case in Dali Temple was said to be a vendetta. No family members of the deceased have come to the house since the morgue, so the case is destined to be hastily closed again. I''m afraid that''s the case again. Yang Mansion. Mr. Yang Ge went back to his hometown. Not long after, Yang Lingyu, who was serving as Shaoqing in Dali Temple, came to visit and was led to the study by the old housekeeper. Closed the study door. Ordered not to be disturbed. Mr. Yang Ge immediately asked about the case of Zuixian Tower, "Have you still not investigated and found any clues?" "Before that person left, they obviously cleaned the scene and wiped away all traces." Since the case happened. Yang Lingyu has never slept a wink and has been investigating the matter. Others thought he was dedicated and eager to achieve results. Only he knows that this is pressure from someone behind the scenes. Yang Ge had a headache: "Mr. Yan has come to ask three times. If there are no clues, they will probably suspect us of having second thoughts." "Uncle, it''s not that my nephew didn''t do his best, it''s that he really didn''t find any clues. Those people were very aware of the government''s methods of handling cases before they acted, and destroyed everything they could find. In the past few days, various pharmacies and medical clinics have also made inquiries However, no suspicious persons were found. Most of the medical clinics in the capital belong to the Liu family. The Liu family cooperated very well with the Yamen investigation. Some small pharmacies and medical clinics also dare not hide. Mr. Yang Ge said: "Mr. Yan sent news that there was something strange in the city that night. Not only did they lose the men in Zuixian Tower, but they also killed and injured more than 30 people in other places." These people had an accident in the secret passage. . Yan Jiangnan did not tell him the matter in detail. Just talking about things. "Mr. Yan suspects that it was done by a big family in the capital. They don''t have any background or courage to do this. In addition, they said that it was the same as last time. The person who attacked them looked like a secret guard trained by the royal family." Mr. Yang Ge only said Say like rather than directly saying yes. Yang Lingyu added: "But after doing this, what does the other party want? Before anyone does something, he has a motive. What does Mr. Yan say?" "Not sure." "Uncle, you can go and ask." "I mean, I asked, but Mr. Yan doesn''t know." "Really?" Yang Lingyu felt that Yan Jiangnan was unwilling to say anything, and the matter might involve confidentiality. Looking at his nephew''s expression, Yang Ge knew that he didn''t believe it, "They''re not fooling you, they really don''t know. Those people were the same as last time. They attacked Mr. Yan and the others out of nowhere, and then disappeared after beating them, just to tease them. Like a child. "Mr. Yan is so resourceful, but he doesn''t know anything about it?" Yang Lingyu looked shocked. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Mr. Yang Ge said: "I didn''t believe it at first either." Mr. Yan is their wise man, and almost all plans are inseparable from him. Mr. Yang Ge believed that he was not bad, and his ability and scheming were among the best in the court, but he still felt inferior to Mr. Yan. After the two discussed it. Secretly investigate the powerful and powerful families in the capital. The most suspicious one among them is Prince Rui, but Prince Rui is far in the northwest, and the other has gone to Huangshan. It is said that the tombs have been repaired, and the palace in the capital does not even have a serious master, only a few old aunts living in the backyard. However, after painstaking investigation, it was destined to be fruitless. On the contrary, it was Yuan Shangshu who was banned. Suddenly he put on official uniform and appeared at the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty issued an order for each government office to investigate bad debts, which was similar to what Qin Chi had heard before in the Hanlin Academy. The initial response was mediocre, and so were the people who responded. It cannot be said that everyone is resisting the decree, it is just that when doing things, their attitude is not so positive. Yuan Shangshu took the opportunity to make a secret at home. He expressed his willingness to support His Majesty''s will, said that he would fully cooperate, etc., and also praised Emperor Mingcheng. Coupled with the fact that the granddaughter of the harem was allowed to turn a deaf ear to Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty, the matter was settled, and the successful official was reinstated. The first day after returning to office. Naturally, there will be a meeting at the Ministry of Industry. When Qin Chi saw Yuan Shangshu, he bowed and saluted with thorough etiquette, and there was no look of surprise on his face. Yuan Shangshu finally saw Qin Chi. The two had a deep grudge. They had only met once before, and no one believed them. If it is not irreconcilable, let me ask my heart, Yuan Shangshu does not want to have any grudge with such a rising star. When Yuan Shangshu saluted Qin Chi, he just narrowed his eyes and said, "Mr. Qin, there is no need to be polite." "Thank you, sir." Qin Chi bowed his head again and stepped aside to wait. After a while, the left and right ministers and the other three ministers also came over. Yuan Shangshu said: "Now that everyone is here, I won''t talk nonsense. You must have read the documents issued by the superiors. What do you think of those accounts?" What do you think? No one wants to see it! Qin Chi''s eyes observe his nose, and his nose observes his heart. He pretended to be dead without saying a word when asked. When the document was issued, it was not that Qin Chi didn''t think of responding. In fact, he had been the target of public criticism before. It could be explained that it was an unintentional mistake at a young age. If he showed up at this time, he would almost be seeking death. Therefore, he has been keeping a low profile these past few days. Yuan Shangshu stared at Qin Chi like a hawk, "Mr. Qin, please tell me. After all, you handed over the memorial. If you have any solution, please tell everyone." Coming, coming! The troublemaker is here! Chapter 297 Confronting Yuan Shangshu Chapter 297 Confrontation with Yuan Shangshu "My official qualifications are shallow and my knowledge is limited. However, I was fortunate enough to hear many ministers discussing this matter in the main hall that day. I can share a few details here, hoping to help everyone." Qin Chi selected a few feasible suggestions from the memorial he wrote that day and combined them with his personal insights. The views are practical and no nonsense. If it is adopted, it cannot be said that all accounts will be filled, but at least 30% to 40% will be replenished. Moreover, he is a doctor and has several superiors and peers here. It is enough to solve these problems and leave some for others to use. Not to mention what Yuan Shangshu and the two ministers were thinking. After all, one had a grudge against Qin Chi, and the other two were said to be at the same level because Qin Chi had received a royal stick that day. They had rarely dealt with Qin Chi in the past. I have heard all kinds of gossip about him, and when I saw him today, I just wanted to say that the rumors were true. He is indeed capable, and his words and deeds are also quite measured. It is a pity that he offended Yuan Shangshu early on. But no matter how good they felt about Qin Chi, they didn''t dare to show it on their faces. Yuan Shangshu would not bring his plans against Qin Chi to the surface, let alone be quick to talk. If he wants to kill Qin Chi, he will never fall into the trap. After Qin Chi finished speaking, Yuan Shangshu praised him a few words. Let others give their opinions. Except for what Qin Chi said was somewhat useful, what everyone else said was just for the occasion, or flattering Yuan Shangshu without any trace. In order to win over people''s hearts, Yuan Shangshu said that he would find a way to solve the rest, "You first do what Qin Langzhong said, and then report to me when you are done." After he finished speaking, he waved his hand to indicate that he could disperse. The two ministers stayed behind to assist Yuan Shangshu in his work. The four doctors bowed and left. The other three wanted to ask Qin Chi for advice, but they were worried about Yuan Shangshu, so no one spoke first. Until Qin Chi left. The three of them looked at each other. One of them whispered: "Can you remember clearly what he just said?" "Remember seven, seven or eight." Just remember it, you have to practice it. The three of them communicated privately and expressed that they could pay more attention to Yu Hengsi''s movements. Qin Chi went back and asked Yuan Wailang and the supervisor to clear out the old items stored in Yu Hengsi''s warehouse, make a list, and give instructions one by one. The doctors from the other three divisions who were paying attention to Qin Chi thought about it in private for a while and then learned from Qin Chi''s approach. Yu Hengsi acted in a very orderly manner. Qin Chi''s first request after taking office was that the accounts should be clear and that quantifiers such as "some" and "a few" should be eliminated. This makes the people below complain. The reason is that there will be no oil and water, and the space that can be operated becomes smaller. Qin Chi didn''t know this clearly, but he did it anyway. He can''t control what others do, and he must listen to him in his territory. Otherwise, if anyone makes a mistake, he will be accused of lax control. As for how many other people''s informants or people who work for Yuan Shangshu in the Yu Heng Division, Qin Chi knows it but is not afraid of it. Just do what you have to do. People who have been observing Qin Chi are also curious. Especially Yuan Shangshu, he just felt that Qin Chi was too stable. It was so stable that he couldn''t start. On the surface, the two ministers were very respectful to Yuan Shangshu. The two are waiting for the news of Yuan Shangshu''s "new" official taking office. As a result, half a day passed. No fire started. Yuan Shangshu is looking through the official documents from his period of confinement. Wang Shilang pretended to be unintentional and joked: "Sir, I heard someone talking outside today, saying they were guessing when your fire would light up." The other servant was sorting out official documents and listening. Yuan Shangshu looked away from the official document and looked up at Wang Shilang: "What''s the fire?" "Sir, don''t listen, lest you pollute your ears." Wang Shilang said this, but his tone was different, which really whetted his appetite. Yuan Shangshu seemed to be smiling but not smiling, "I have never heard anything dirty and smelly about this official, so I don''t care about such a thing." "Hey, it''s nonsense to say that the new official has three things to do when he takes office." Wang Shilang seemed to be standing next to Yuan Shangshu. While talking, he criticized those who were talking nonsense. Another minister said: "Your Excellency has been serving as minister for more than ten years, and he has long been considered a new official." "That''s right, that''s what I thought too." No one knows what the two ministers really think in their hearts, but they all talk about being aggrieved for Yuan Shangshu. Yuan Shangshu should have beaten the next two. I no longer feel that way now. Do you think he doesn''t want to stumble Qin Chi? That kid is too slippery. What matters now is patience. Skilled hunters are extremely patient before hunting. If you attack rashly, you may not kill the prey, but feed it. Yuan Shangshu was not interested in listening. He raised his hand to send the two of them out and continued to read the official documents. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Wait until it''s time to leave the office. At the gate of the Yamen, Yuan Shangshu accidentally met Qin Chi who was coming out. Qin Chi stepped aside and bowed again, with a very respectful attitude. Yuan Shangshu passed by him, his eyes flashed, and he smiled gently, "Mr. Qin, I''m sorry, do you want to go together?" "My lord, please come first." Qin Chi raised his hand to signal him to go ahead, "I also want to join you, but unfortunately we live in Cuihua Hutong and are on a different road from you." "That''s a shame." Yuan Shangshu said this, but he didn''t really want to go with Qin Chi, but when he saw Qin Chi again today, he realized that the other party''s character was far deeper than what he had investigated. Now he is over fifty. Thinking back to those days, he was the same age as Qin Chi, but he was not as calm as him. At least when facing his enemies, he couldn''t be so calm. Even his respectful attitude was natural. No complaints at all. The more Yuan Shangshu thought deeply, the more timid he became. Such an opponent is quite scary. Absolutely not give him a chance to grow! Otherwise, when Fang becomes successful in the future, it will be the end of the Yuan family. Yuan Shangshu''s steps towards the carriage were messy, and when he got into the carriage, he lifted up his clothes and hurriedly got in. Qin Chi stood in front of the Yamen and watched Yuan Shangshu get into the car. It wasn''t until the carriage from Shangshu Mansion had gone far that Qin Chi looked back. People who didn''t know it saw it and thought it was the junior seeing off the elder. Lao Huo stood next to Qin Chi, "Sir, the old thief wanted to kill you for a moment." "I also saw his steps were messed up." Qin Ba also came up and said with a smile. Qin Chi chuckled, "What nonsense are you talking about? He didn''t want to kill me just now, but he was afraid of me." Old Li Tou led the carriage to turn around and came to Qin Chi. He then took off the stool and placed it next to the shaft of the carriage. Qin Chi immediately boarded the carriage. He quickly got into the car again. An eyeliner seen from a distance. Quickly transmit this scene back to their respective masters. It was probably on the first day that Yuan Shangshu went to the Ministry of Industry to give Qin Qi''an a boost. Especially when he went to the government office, Qin Qi''an had to stand respectfully in front of the government office to see him off. Outsiders sigh, Old Ghost Yuan is so majestic. By the way, I sympathize with Qin Chi. Chapter 298 The Liu family and the Liu family’s temptation Chapter 298 The Liu family and the Liu familys temptation Cuihua Hutong. The Qin family has guests today. Song Jin is entertaining Liu Jianfang. To be honest, Song Jin never expected that Liu Jianfang would come to visit unexpectedly. The reason was that Liu Jianfang had taken a break today and came over to visit him on an impromptu basis. Since he was a neighbor, he did not hand over a greeting card. Song Jin Bento believed what Liu Jianfang said. Treat them as ordinary guests. It is said that Song Jin is cautious and will disguise himself when he is at home, so that the other party will not suddenly come to the door and be bumped into his true appearance. While the two were chatting about medicinal materials, Song Jin took Liu Jianfang to her processing room. Liu Jianfang saw signs of use on the tools and said in surprise: "I didn''t expect you to be an official''s wife and still prepare medicinal materials." "I''m bored at home all day, looking for something to do." Song Jin said bluntly. Liu Jianfang glanced at the processing room again, "I thought you would have no time to socialize all day long." "My husband said, I can''t handle that." Song Jin looked like she regarded her husband as her first priority, and acted like her husband-in-law would do whatever he said. She was no different from ordinary women outside. This made Liu Jianfang less interested in trying her. Liu Jianfang reminded her unintentionally, "Has he asked for a royal title for you? A fifth-grade official can ask for a royal title for his wife." "This, don''t be in a hurry." There was hesitation on Song Jin''s face, "My husband-in-law has only just been in office. Let''s wait until he has established a firm footing." "That''s right, there''s no rush." Liu Jianfang had heard a lot about Qin Chi. It was easier for men to become officials in the court than for women. Although she had known for a long time that Qin Chi would soar into the sky, but it was so fast that she could not help but feel envious and jealous in her heart. The same goes for her husband Liu Ji. Although many people admire Qin Chi outside, they criticize him a lot at home. They suspect Qin Chi has some dealings behind his back several times. Otherwise, why would he be promoted so quickly? Knowing that she and Song Jin were old acquaintances, he immediately encouraged her to come here for a test. It''s just that after talking for so long, Liu Jianfang couldn''t find out anything. When it came to officialdom matters, Song Jin didn''t know anything about it. Seeing that the office is about to be dismissed. Liu Jianfang stood up and said goodbye. Song Jin politely escorted the master and servant to the door. Wait until you return to Liuzhai. As soon as Liu Jianfang stepped into the courtyard, Liu Ji came to greet her, "How are you? Did you find out anything?" "The Qin family''s house has never violated the regulations, and there is not a decent ornament." Liu Jianfang took another look at the elegant layout of her house, as well as the expensive furniture and ornaments. "Ms. Qin is a diligent and thrifty housewife." "That''s all?" Liu Ji frowned, "Is there nothing suspicious?" "No, if you don''t believe it, just go and see it yourself." Liu Jianfang sat down, and Xiao Xi served tea, "Qin''s tea is commonly available in tea shops outside. It has a bitter taste when you drink it, but the tea at home is better." Liu Ji sat on the chair, "I received news that there is someone behind Qin Qi''an. But it doesn''t sound like what you said." "Is there someone behind you?" Liu Jianfang frowned, "He first came to the capital, and he had to rely on Mrs. Qin to make money outside. The rented place is also very small, and it doesn''t look like someone is covering him." "Then, couldn''t it be that he secretly sought refuge with someone when he was studying in the Imperial College?" Liu Ji carefully pondered this possibility, "According to the investigation, the friendship between several classmates he interacted with was ordinary, so it would be easy to single them out. Its Ling Yuanhao who went to the military camp. "You want to say that he took refuge with Ling Yuanhao?" Liu Jianfang thought that behind Ling Yuanhao was Ling Dinghou Mansion, "It''s impossible. What would a civil servant do if he seeks refuge with a military general? Besides, General Ling is not in Beijing either." If you want to go far in officialdom. Qin Chi needs to find a civil servant as a backer. You must know that literati despise martial arts, and most of all they look down on military attachs. Liu Ji thought about it but it was impossible. Ever since Ling Yuanhao suddenly joined the army, he didn''t seem to have much contact with Qin Chi. Qin Chi didn''t seem to be friends with anyone in the capital, and even if he tried to find anyone he suspected of being a backer, he couldn''t find him. "Forget it, I''ll ask next time." Liu Ji could only give up first. Immediately he stood up, closed the folding fan and said, "I have an appointment with my classmates tonight, so there is no need to hold the door open for me." "good." Liu Jianfang gritted her teeth and watched Liu Ji stride out. Xiao Xi on the side said angrily, "Miss, how could my uncle do this? Most likely he was seduced by the foxy girl outside." "Shut up, uncle, can you arrange it?" Liu Jianfang whispered with a stern look. Xiao Xi admitted her mistake aggrievedly, "Yes, it was my fault." "Xiao Xi, you have been with me for so many years, and you should know how to measure some things. I can indulge you, but if these words spread to the outside world, my uncle may not be able to forgive you. Think about Xiao Tao last month, and I can''t To take this as a warning?" Liu Jianfang said seriously. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Hearing this, Xiao Xi''s face turned pale. It seemed like he had thought of something terrible. Last month, maid Xiao Tao complained that Liu Ji treated Liu Jianfang badly. This word reached Liu Ji''s ears, and Liu Ji ordered the housekeeper to give him twenty punishments with a cane before selling him out. It is said that the slave who instigates discord between the master and his mistress does not have to stay at home. Xiao Xi was so frightened that she knelt down and said, "Miss, I don''t dare to do this anymore." "It''ll be nice if you have a long memory." Liu Jianfang also did it for a small hobby. The days after her marriage were just like what she had imagined before she got married. They were living a miserable life and it seemed like there would be no bright future. Qin Chi returned home. Soon I learned that a guest had arrived today. When the couple were getting along in private, Song Jin told Qin Chi, "She seems to be here to inquire about the news, and she kept talking about you." "Did the Liu family notice me?" Qin Chi raised his eyebrows and thought for a moment before asking, "What else did you say?" "I also mentioned why you didn''t ask me for a royal title, so I pretended to be stupid and fooled you." Song Jin thought that the other party was probably here to check up on routine, and was not necessarily suspicious of Qin Chi. Qin Chi had the same idea, so he put the matter of Liu Ji and Liu Jianfang behind him, "Do you think you have a strange husband?" "What''s your fault?" Song Jin was confused. Qin Chi replied straightly: "Please give me the imperial edict." Song Jin suddenly became amused when he saw his appearance, "What''s so strange about this? My husband has only been an official for a long time, and he has no achievements. It''s too early to ask for a title." "Thank you madam for understanding." Qin Chi stood up solemnly and bowed deeply to Song Jin. Song Jin was slightly stunned. Shouldn''t the focus of the conversation just now be the Liu family and the Liu family''s temptation? Unexpectedly, what he valued most was the imperial edict she casually mentioned. "My husband can''t do it! I can''t do it! I can''t bear this great gift." Song Jin came to his senses and hurriedly avoided it. Qin Chi straightened his back, stood tall, and stared at her with a smile, "I can bear this gift for my husband." "this" Song Jin ran away, his cheeks felt inexplicably hot, and he said quickly as he walked out: "There is still soup in the kitchen, let me go and take a look." After she stepped over the threshold. You can also hear Qin Chi''s happy laughter behind you. (End of chapter) Chapter 299 Qin Qian is so poor that he eats dirt Chapter 299 Qin Qian is so poor that he eats dirt Qin Chi wanted to grant Song Jin a royal title, which he had the idea to do on the day he became a bachelor''s degree holder. However, after finding someone to find out more about it, he had to postpone the matter. Not all applications for sealing can be passed. The fifth rank of official residence is only the threshold for application. When applying for the seal, you need to submit Song Jin''s identity document, marriage certificate and other proofs, and then the relevant personnel of the Ministry of Household Affairs or the Ministry of Personnel will review it. Qin Chi didn''t dare to gamble on whether Song Jin''s identity could withstand in-depth investigation. Another reason is that he has not yet made any achievements. As the saying goes, a husband is honored and his wife is valued, and it is easier for officials with meritorious service to apply for a title. The following days. Qin Chi went to and from the Yamen all day long. Ever since Liu Jianfang came to the house, women often came to talk to Song Jin, chatting about family affairs and neighborhood gossip, which made it inconvenient for Song Jin to do anything in private. Fortunately, Song Jin asked his men to lurk. There weren''t many things during this period. Most of them were letters from various places and letters from home in Huizhou. It''s autumn now. The family started to buy winter clothes. Last time Qin Chi asked Song Jin to buy a maid, but due to the large number of people visiting Qin''s house, Song Jin did not add more servants for fear of outsiders saying that his family had too many servants, just to be on the safe side. Therefore, Song Jin had to do many things at home personally. For example, people who come to visit often see Song Jin, who is simply dressed, doing the work himself. Everyone praised Song Jin for his diligence and frugality in managing his family. He turned around and laughed at the Qin family for being shabby and unable to maintain a decent appearance. Even if Qin Qi''an passed the imperial examination and served as an official in the court for several months, he was still poor. As the words get passed around, the flavor changes. It is said that Qin Zhuangyuan''s family was so poor that they could only eat glutinous rice bran for three meals. Later, it got even more extreme, and even those who wanted to eat dirt came out. One day, word reached Qin Chi''s ears. They were doctors from the other three divisions of the Ministry of Industry. They formed a team and came to Qin Chi. They were talking loudly. They originally wanted to see Qin Chi''s jokes. Unexpectedly, Qin Chi was very calm, "I am from a peasant family. It is my dream to live the life I have now. I cannot compare with the wealth of several adults." Suddenly the surroundings were quiet. Without making any money and relying solely on his salary to support his family, Qin Chi is doing well now. It''s just that there is a tendency to compare among colleagues. Usually for the sake of face, I am used to putting good things on display. If someone''s family looks shabby on the surface, they subconsciously feel that they are poorer secretly, so they can''t help but laugh at them. Qin Chi''s calm appearance made them look like clowns, mainly because they had something evil in mind. The three doctors left in despair. This matter not only spread to the ears of officials, but also Emperor Mingcheng in the palace heard about it, "Are you really going to eat chaffy vegetables?" "Not only that, there are rumors that he will eat dirt." A young **** answered beside him. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty was very happy when he heard this, "My new top scholar is starving to death, how can he do things for me? Xiao Jixiang, go to the private treasury to get one hundred taels of gold and send it to Qin Qi''an." "I''ll take care of it now," Ji Xiang responded hurriedly. So that day. The Qin family suddenly received a reward from the palace. Song Jin was surprised when he suddenly heard that the reward was coming from the palace. He thought it was Qin Chi who had made the contribution today. After learning about it, he realized that it was a windfall caused by rumors from outside. The **** was politely sent away. Song Jin looked at the ten gold ingots on the table and had mixed feelings for a moment. "Ah Qi, have I been pretending too much recently, making those who come to visit me think that my family is too poor to afford food?" Song Jin knew the rumors outside. Because I dont think its a bad thing. He ignored it and allowed the rumors to spread. "Madam, do you want to inform the young master about this?" Qin Qi felt that this matter was strange and urgent. Song Jin waved his hand, "Go talk to him." Qin Qi nodded, bowed and left. However, as soon as Qin Qi walked out of the gate, she saw someone else coming into the palace. She turned around and went back to report to Song Jin. When Song Jin went out, he knew that the queen had sent someone to deliver a reward. Of course, this reward was clearly for Song Jin. It was a set of exquisitely crafted headdress, plus two hundred taels of silver. Then came the imperial concubines and the various concubines. People from the harem came here more than a dozen times. Qin Chi hurried home after getting the news and saw a pile of rewards placed in the hall, including gold, silver, porcelain, cloth and exquisite jewelry, which were quite impressive together. Song Jin was sitting at the front seat leisurely, holding tea in his hand and sipping it in small sips, while Qin Qi on the side was taking notes. "Madam, does our family have a sudden fortune?" Qin Chi walked calmly to the chair next to Song Jin and sat down. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin poured him a cup of tea and said, "I was wondering whether this was a good thing or a bad thing." "How do you want to solve it, madam?" Qin Chi put down the tea bowl in his hand, "If this matter is not handled well, there may be hidden dangers in the future." Now we talk about poverty to the outside world. Others also believe it, but dont they themselves know whether they are really poor or fake poor? There are some advantages that cannot be taken advantage of. Otherwise, how will you deal with your identity being exposed in the future? Will the person who gave the reward today feel that he was fooled? Maybe it will lead to the crime of deceiving the emperor. Don''t think that these worries are unfounded. Things have happened before in the world. When the political opponents criticize Qin Chi, they will not say that the external rumors have nothing to do with him. They will only ask why he didn''t stand up to refute the rumors at that time. Unintentional has become intentional. Song Jin pondered for a moment and said: "Taihu Lake suffered floods this year and a large number of people were displaced. These things were donated in the name of Your Majesty and the masters in the palace. But in order to show the emperor''s great kindness, I will keep one piece of each reward." , convert it into silver and add it. "This is a very good move." Qin Chi immediately asked Song Jin to do it. Then he thought that he had received a reward and needed to go to the palace to express his gratitude. Song Jin must go this time, but whether the various masters will see him or not is another matter. Song Jin thought for a while and said, "I will go to the palace the day after tomorrow to express my gratitude. I will go and donate things tomorrow and buy an outfit. When I see the queen, I will make it clear that life at home is okay, and everyone is spreading lies outside." "My lady is very considerate." Qin Chi felt very at ease. A good wife at home is like a good minister in a country. Once again, he was glad that he had married Song Jin instead of that crazy Song Xiu. Now that they have decided, the couple will do so. The next day Qin Chi went to Dianmao, Hanlin Academy, and had a private murmur with Yan Xianqing. "You want to see His Majesty?" Yan Xianqing was surprised. Qin Chi said with a look of helplessness: "First, I have to thank you for receiving the reward. Second, I want to clarify with Your Majesty that although I am not well-dressed and well-fed, I am still well-off. The rumors outside are untrue." "Haha, I made a mistake." Yan Xianqing regarded this matter as amusement, "Don''t worry, your majesty knows about it, and he is probably just having fun like me." Qin Chi put on a handsome face and was unconvinced. This caused Yan Xianqing to burst into laughter. Chapter 300 Donate Chapter 300 Donation Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty received Qin Chi asking for an audience. After thinking about it, I saw it. Qin Chi came over to thank him, and then said sincerely: "Your Majesty, I heard that you suddenly rewarded me because of rumors, which made me very scared. The rumors outside are untrue. They are mostly people''s pastime. I don''t accept it. I want to make His Majesty worry." Emperor Ming Cheng looked at Qin Chi. Of course he knew the situation, but he was just doing it for fun. Emperor Mingcheng pointed to the chessboard next to him, "Let''s talk about a game." "Then it''s better to be respectful than to obey." Qin Chi straightened his back and sat across from Emperor Mingcheng. When the king and his ministers are playing chess. Song Jin also came to the Ministry of Household Affairs with donated things. As soon as the official guarding the door of the Ministry of Revenue heard about Song Jin''s intention, he immediately went in to pass the news. I thought that the person who would come out to help me would be a member of staff or a chief executive at most. Waited for a short while. A group of officials came out surrounded by the Minister of Household Affairs. Song Jin was stunned for a long time. The Minister of Household Affairs looked happy on his face. Seeing Song Jin was like meeting the God of Wealth. He said warmly: "She is the wife of Qin Zhuangyuan''s family, right? I heard that you came here specially to donate to the people affected by the Taihu Lake disaster. This makes me happy." The officer was very impressed. When he heard that you were coming, he couldn''t sit still and came over to show his respect for Mrs. Qin." He stepped forward without waiting for Song Jin to speak. The Minister of Household Affairs bowed deeply to Song Jin and said, "On behalf of the people affected by the disaster in Taihu Lake, I, Xia Wei, would like to thank Madam Qin for her high righteousness." "Your Majesty, you are too polite." Song Jin pretended to be panicked and avoided it. He didn''t dare to accept Xia Wei''s gift. Song Jin did not expect to receive such great attention, so he hurriedly clarified: "Your Excellency made a mistake. It was not me who donated it, but my family donated it on behalf of Your Majesty and the masters in the palace." Xia Wei''s eyelids twitched, "In the palace?" Song Jin was saying something when the servant next to him suggested, "Mr. Xia, why don''t you invite Madam Qin in to talk first?" "Oh, I''m rude. Madam Qin, please come in." Xia Wei turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation. Song Jin also pretended to be nervous, "Sir, please go first. I''ll just follow." Before coming here, Song Jin''s words and deeds were consistent with his rural background, and outsiders would not be surprised when they saw him. There is a prerequisite for donating money. Song Jin entered the yamen of the Ministry of Finance and received a warm welcome, including not only tea but also fruits and snacks. Waiting for things to be moved into the Yamen. Officials came out to count and found that in addition to gold and silver, other items were also worth a lot of money. It was much easier for the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs to exchange them for silver than Song Jin. Not to mention the rewards. Most people can''t exchange it for silver if they keep it. When the handover was completed, Song Jin did not wait long. As if he was being chased by a ghost, he quickly left the Yamen. The officials from the Ministry of Revenue were delighted to see this. "By the way, this is the first time we have seen Qin Qi''an''s wife." One person said this, and others agreed. Suddenly, a voice contained malicious intent and said: "She looks very ordinary, and at most pretty, so no wonder Qin Qi''an hid her and didn''t let her come out. Isn''t it because he couldn''t get his hands on her?" As soon as the man said this. His colleagues silently moved away from him. It''s better to stay away from such a stupid thing, so as not to burden them. Mrs. Qin''s appearance is mediocre, but they have eyes to see. But who said that? Based on what the other party did today, even if the other party is extremely ugly, they will still praise her a few words outside. Xia Wei took the list of Song Jin''s donation, and the more he looked at it, the more interesting it became, "Ninety taels of gold? Your Majesty rewarded it yesterday. The Qin family kept one ingot, but they exchanged it for a hundred taels of silver and added it." A servant next to him said, "The rest should be rewarded by the masters in the palace. The Qin family has sent them to the Ministry of Revenue and donated them in the name of the masters." "What does Qin Qi''an mean by this? You have donated it. Do you think you don''t care about these rewards?" As soon as these words came out, the man seemed to be shocked and made a mistake, and quickly added: "I didn''t mean that, I meant..." "What you say is not important. As an official of the imperial court, you should not make any assumptions. If others cause trouble, you will be responsible for most of it." An official reminded seriously. The man immediately dared not say anything. Even Shangshu Xia Wei glanced at the man who made the mistake. We are all old men in the officialdom. Can we still tell the difference between a true gaffe and a false gaffe? This stupid guy almost wants to blame Qin Chi for "despising the emperor''s favor"! Xia Wei put the list in his sleeve pocket and stood up, "I have come to the palace. Your Majesty, the Queen and other masters have donated money to the people of Taihu. Please go out and publicize it. You must let everyone in the capital know that our Majesty will do it day and night." Worried about the people affected by the disaster in Taihu Lake. "Sir, what are you..." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The officials on the side who understood were shocked. Xia Wei''s eyes coolly swept away, and no one dared to question him again, "Just do as you are told. Otherwise, if the Ministry of Household Affairs has no money, what will it do to provide disaster relief? Are you going to skin you?" "What your Excellency said is absolutely true. I will go and publicize it now." "I''ll make arrangements too." "It will go faster if there are more people. I''ll ask someone to help me." The officials who had gathered together just now were all dispersed in an instant. Xia Wei then walked slowly to the palace. He is still the same person, but unlike the sullen expression in the past, today he has a relaxed look and is humming a tune along the way. When he arrived at Wenyuan Pavilion, he asked to see Emperor Ming Cheng. Emperor Ming Cheng was playing chess with Qin Chi. He held a chess piece and asked, "Why is he here?" "Master Xia said that he has something to report." The **** said with a flattering look. Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty lost a son and said, "Let him come in." Soon. Xia Wei came in under the leadership of the eunuch, and when he saw Qin Chi sitting with Emperor Ming Cheng, his thoughts started to change. Could it be that todays donation was privately instructed by His Majesty? If so, wouldn''t it be unnecessary for him to come? Civil servants tend to think too much. Obviously a simple thing, after their brains analyze it, there will be many twists and turns. Emperor Mingcheng ignored him. Qin Chi just wanted to stand up and salute Xia Wei. Emperor Mingcheng said: "Ignore him, let''s finish this game first." "That''s right, it''s not an urgent matter. I''ll wait on the side." Xia Wei thought about it and realized that this matter was indeed not urgent. Then he stood aside and watched the chess game. Qin Chi finally lost to Emperor Ming Cheng''s son without leaving any trace. Emperor Mingcheng was happy, "Yes, Qi''an''s chess skills are superb, only slightly worse than mine." "What your Majesty said is absolutely true." Qin Chi wiped away the non-existent sweat, as if I tried my best but still lost. Harmony between the king and his ministers is very, very good. Xia Wei, who was a bystander, kept his eyes straight. Emperor Ming Cheng took the ginseng tea handed to him by the palace maid and took a sip, "Xia Aiqing, tell me why you came to see me?" "The Ministry of Household Affairs received a donation from His Majesty. I made a list and came here specifically to ask Your Majesty to read it." Xia Wei took out the list of donations from Song Jin from his sleeve with a moved expression and handed it to Emperor Ming Cheng with both hands. Emperor Mingcheng took it and took a look, and instantly narrowed his eyes. Chapter 301 Yuan Shangshu’s Difficulties Chapter 301 Yuan Shangshus Difficulties Emperor Mingcheng turned to Qin Chi and asked, "Qin Qi''an donated the gold I rewarded, tell me what''s going on?" "this" Qin Chi stood up and stood next to Shangshu of the Ministry of Finance, taking a half step back and said, "Your Majesty, this is my wife''s wish." Emperor Mingcheng was surprised: "It wasn''t your idea?" "It''s really not the case. Wei Chen has no merit at all, but he has received a large sum of gold from His Majesty. My wife asked me if I felt sorry... To be honest, Wei Chen really deserves it." Qin Chi stood up and bowed to Emperor Mingcheng, and said with sincerity, "My wife is just a woman, not involved in court matters, she makes decisions and donates in the name of your majesty and all the masters in the palace. I beg your majesty to forgive her transgression." " "This is a good deed, what''s the crime?" Emperor Mingcheng read the list again with great interest, and he could tell a few things from the list alone, "Your wife has a heart of seven ingenious things. Xia Aiqing, don''t you think so?" "Ms. Qin cares about the people affected by the disaster in Taihu Lake, and she knows how to repay her kindness without seeking fame or fortune. She is truly a strange woman." Xia Wei responded sincerely. She obviously donated all the rewards she received, but she kept a share from each person''s reward. She regarded it as accepting other people''s wishes, and everyone else couldn''t fault her. Actually, Xia Wei didn''t say anything. Song Jin''s move helped him a lot this time. Originally, he was worrying about preparing money and materials for disaster relief. Now the matter seems to be solved! Your Majesty has donated, how dare others not donate? Qin Chi hurriedly said a few words of modesty. But he deliberately mentioned Song Jin today just to make a good impression on her in front of Emperor Ming Cheng. Things will be easier in the future. Soon, Qin Chi saw what it means for an old minister to praise others'' skills. Xia Wei chatted with Emperor Mingcheng about the flood in Taihu Lake, mentioned the people affected by the disaster, and then praised Emperor Mingcheng''s donation without any trace, which was a blessing to the people of Taihu Lake and would be loved by all people, etc. The compliment was said with sincerity. If Qin Chi hadn''t understood it, he would have almost believed it. He felt that he had learned something. Emperor Mingcheng had a look on his face. But it could be seen from his brows that he was in a good mood, and he even called the eunuchs to tell them to pay attention to the activities in the household department. Not long after, a young **** hurriedly came to report that Ning Guogong and his family had donated 800 taels and 50 shi of grain to the Ministry of Household Affairs. "This old guy is quite sensible." Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty liked Ning Guogong''s knowledge and interest. No matter what he wanted to do, Ning Guogong was always the first to jump out and support him. Therefore, Emperor Ming Cheng, who was in a good mood, stayed with Xia Wei and Qin Chi to have lunch together. Only half a day. No matter what their intentions, every family in the capital came to the Ministry of Household Affairs to donate money, food, clothing, etc. The Ministry of Household Affairs publicized the matter in the city, saying that the donated food and clothing were not old or new, as long as they were edible and usable. Donations are all the rage these days. The wealthier people in the city also donated old clothes that they no longer wore. Wait for the two of them to leave the palace. Xia Wei went back to the Ministry of Finance. Qin Chi transferred to the Hanlin Academy, talked to Yan Xianqing in private, and then returned to the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry. The colleagues I met along the way were very enthusiastic about Qin Chi. "Master Qin, what a coincidence. Have you had lunch?" "Master Qin, look at your glowing face, I guess something happy is coming." "Master Qin is favored by His Majesty. He will definitely have a bright future in the future. Don''t forget us even if you are rich or noble." The man patted Qin Chi on the shoulder, his eyes filled with envy and sourness. In the past, when these people learned that Qin Chi had offended Yuan Shangshu, they avoided Qin Chi because they had to deal with work matters and had a business-like attitude. Qin Chi thought about the reasons for everyone''s change. First, it may be a donation from the Ministry of Household Affairs. Secondly, it may be because he stayed with Emperor Ming Cheng for half a day and had another royal meal. In the eyes of these people, he, Qin Chi, had caught the eye of Emperor Ming Cheng and was a minister whom Emperor Ming Cheng valued. In other words, these people saw value in him. Qin Chi coped with this easily. He has already taken care of Yu Hengsi''s matter. The old items in the inventory were sorted out, and Qin Ba and others had already taken them away and converted them into silver and put them in the account. The neatness of the items made the other three departments jealous. He compiled the matter into a book and handed it to Wang Shilang. Wang Shilang checked that there was no problem, and then sent it to Yuan Shangshu for review. Yuan Shangshu said to Wang Shilang: "Ask Yu Hengsi to produce 200,000 pieces of military cotton clothes before winter. They are sent to the northwest. Let Qin Langzhong seize the time." Wang Shilang wanted to say it. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Now that it has entered autumn, people are asked to rush for military cotton clothes. According to the speed at which Yu Hengsi used to do things, it will not be completed at all. What''s more, the cotton stock in stock is far from enough. Qin Chi received the task, accepted the official document, and asked: "Master Wang, there is not enough money in the accounts of Yu Heng Division." "How much money is needed? You make an order and we go to the Ministry of Accounts to apply." "That''s quite embarrassing." Qin Chi''s words were very brief. Wang Shilang also understood. Now everyone is short of money, especially when Emperor Ming Cheng ordered to clear up bad debts. When it comes to the bad accounts department, there are no shortage of them. In addition, Taihu Lake is flooded every year, and this year is no exception. It has long been a well-known fact that the Ministry of Household Affairs is short of money. The money in the treasury was often misappropriated by Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty, so there was no hope at all. Qin Chi said with a look of helplessness: "It''s hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. Without money, I can''t do anything here." "Go to contact someone first?" Wang Shilang knew that Yuan Shangshu was deliberately making things difficult, or he was acting as an accomplice, "I mean to ask someone to open credit with the merchant first, and then fill it in as soon as the money comes in." Qin Chi did not agree, but just said: "I will let people use the existing cotton and cloth in the warehouse first. As for the subsequent issues, it will depend on when the money comes." "Okay, you go ahead." Wang Shilang couldn''t bear to see Qin Chi. This task is almost impossible to accomplish. Not to mention the time crunch, just going to the Ministry of Accounts to apply for money is not that easy. It''s strange that people from Xavier would criticize it. Qin Chi made a list of the 200,000 yuan needed for cotton-padded clothes in previous years, and also marked the price that might be affected by the Taihu disaster. Wang Shilang took the list and left in a perfunctory manner. Qin Chi suddenly stopped Wang Shilang, "Master Wang, this is not right. Winter is approaching. Are the cotton clothes really sent to the northwest? If they are to be sent to the northwest, they should be rushed to be completed in the first half of the year." Make it according to this time. By the time this batch of cotton-padded clothes was completed and sent to the northwest, it was already over the New Year. The corner of Wang Shilang''s mouth twitched, "I''ll inform you as Master Shangshu ordered. The supplies sent to the northwest had already set off earlier, but Master Shangshu said there was still a shortage of two hundred thousand, which needed to be made up before the end of the year. He had previously The reason for the grounding has delayed this matter. Okay, just do as you please." Qin Chi knew as soon as he heard that it was a problem thrown by Yuan Shangshu. Wang Shilang left not long ago. People turned back again. Chapter 302 solve Chapter 302 Solution Wang Shilang took the approval document written by Yuan Shang, which was the proof of applying for the money. It had Yuan Shangshu''s signature and official seal on it. They should have gone to the Ministry of Household Affairs to apply. In the end, Qin Chi was given an approval document to handle, which meant he was completely out of character! Qin Chi took the approval document and said, "Mr. Wang, is it appropriate for me to go to the Ministry of Revenue?" "It''s appropriate. You can go to the Ministry of Finance to find Xia Shangshu and ask him to sign and stamp it." After Wang Shilang finished speaking, he ran away as if being chased by a dog. Maybe he also knew that what he was doing was unreasonable. What Qin Chi took over was a hot potato. You should know that there are many departments waiting for money from the Ministry of Accounts. If you apply for money out of ten times, it will be considered good if you get approved twice. "Sir, did they do it on purpose?" Qin Ba didn''t speak just now, but when the others left, he finally couldn''t hold back the curse, "It''s already autumn, not to mention rushing to work, there is not enough cotton and cloth, and it takes time to buy it from outside. It is as difficult as climbing to the sky to complete it. It''s good now, it''s their job to go to the Ministry of Finance to ask for the money, and it''s their job to leave it to you! If they fail to send the 200,000 cotton clothes to the northwest on time, they will probably blame you. " When the superiors hold him to account, Qin Chi will be charged with dereliction of duty. This is exactly the purpose of Yuan Shangshu. Another clever plan. After all, this was Yu Hengsi''s mission. The Ministry of Industry was delayed for a while due to a previous corruption case. Wouldn''t Yuan Shangshu immediately ask Yu Hengsi to rush into production when he came back? If this matter were discussed outside, no one would criticize Yuan Shangshu. He would only feel that Qin Chi was unlucky. I just arrived and became the head of Yu Hengsi at this time. Lao Huo, who was standing by, was about to become invisible. He rolled his eyes when Qin Ba said this, "What is impossible for others may not be possible in the hands of the young master." Qin Ba turned to think of Qin Chi''s ability and suddenly became silent. Qin Chi stood up calmly, straightened his clothes, and ordered: "Bring the official documents and credentials, we will go to the Ministry of Revenue now." Qin Ba packed up and followed Qin Chi, "The Ministry of Revenue will be very busy today. There are many long tables at the gate, and there are many people lining up to donate. Master, if we go over now, will they have time to pay attention to us?" " "Xia Shangshu is in a good mood today. Now is the time to go and find him." If he had told Qin Chi yesterday that it would be very difficult to ask Qin Chi to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to handle this matter, he would most likely be ignored and cold-faced. However, Xia Wei and him happened to have a friendship with him over dinner in the morning. Before taking over Yu Hengsi. Qin Chi used Shun''an Trading Company to take charge of some military supplies for the Northwest Army, such as medicinal materials, grain and fodder. Qin Chi naturally knew that the Ministry of Industry was in arrears for 200,000 military cotton uniforms this year. When he took over Yu Hengsi, he expected this day, so he asked Song Jin to help purchase cotton in advance. Just waiting for the Ministry of Accounts to approve the goods. Xia Wei didn''t expect to see Qin Chi again so soon, "What kind of wind brought Qin Zhuangyuan here?" "I have something to ask of Mr. Xia." Qin Chi put the previous official documents and vouchers on Xia Wei''s desk, "The soldiers at the border have not changed into military cotton uniforms in ten years. Today, Yuan Shangshu ordered the subordinates to rush out 200,000 pieces. I will rush as soon as I get the approval." Im here to see you, and Id like to ask Mr. Xia to make it easier for me. "Four hundred thousand taels..." Xia Wei wanted to say that you might as well just kill me, but when he thought of what Qin Chi said just now, he had not changed his military uniform in ten years, "A military cotton uniform is customized according to specifications, and it cannot be less than four kilograms of cotton. The cotton on the market this year , the price is 20 to 30% higher than in previous years. Cotton alone costs more than one tael. Can you keep the cost at 2 taels? " "Perhaps Yuan Shangshu knew the difficulties of the household department well, so he reduced the cost to two taels of silver." Qin Chi is as stable as Mount Tai. It is not said that Yuan Shangshu made things difficult for him. But it seems like he said it! Yuan Shangshu kept the expenses to a minimum, didn''t he deliberately make things difficult for Qin Chi? Of course, Xia Wei saw through the twists and turns at a glance. Perhaps Hube was a part of the other party''s plan to make things difficult for Qin Chi. He didn''t like being used as a weapon. Seeing that Qin Chi had helped him a lot today, Xia Wei happily signed and sealed it. Qin Chi bowed deeply to Xia Wei gratefully and went to pick up the money without saying anything. When Qin Chi helped someone get the money. The news was sent back to the Ministry of Works. Yuan Shangshu was shocked, "Xia Wei actually approved it? How is that possible?" "Sir, it''s approved." The confidant who came back from the inquiry confirmed, "Don''t worry, sir. Even if he gets the money, he still won''t be able to complete the task. The cotton on the market now sells for three yuan and sixty yuan per pound." "Keep asking." Yuan Shangshu has been dealing with Xia Wei a lot in these years. When his confidants retreated, he looked around at the two ministers and seemed to sigh: "I don''t know when Xia Shangshu became so easy to talk to. He approved 400,000 yuan at once. In the past. When we go to the Ministry of Finance, we never sit on the bench." Wang Shilang hesitated and said, "Maybe Xia Shangshu is in a good mood?" "The second reason is that he is in a good mood. The main reason is that he owes Qin Qi''an a favor today." The right minister happened to hear the news and told Song Jin about today''s donation. Yuan Shangshu''s expression was terrifyingly gloomy, and he waved his hand to signal the two of them to retreat. Besides, Qin Chi returned to Yu Hengsi and immediately started making arrangements. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! There is no shortage of cloth and cotton. Song Jin had already ordered people to send the purchased cotton to the capital. There were more than one million kilograms of cotton, which was piled in the warehouse of Shun''an Trading Company. But Yu Hengsi only needs 800,000. Cloth is also prepared. All prices are purchased directly, half cheaper than on the market. But in order to confuse Yuan Shangshu''s spy. Qin Chi deliberately asked Yuan Wailang and the principal to contact merchants in the capital to inquire about the prices of cotton and fabrics. The Yuan family had already said hello behind the scenes, and the price was ridiculously expensive. The cost of killing cotton is three cents and fifty cents, which is only ten cents cheaper than the market price. A piece of suitable fabric costs 140 yuan, which is not much cheaper than the market price. When Yuan Wailang handed over the price list, Qin Chi asked expressionlessly: "Are you sure this is the final price?" Yuanwailang said with a bitter face: "Sir, I don''t know who spread the news that we are in urgent need of cotton and cloth. These businessmen are now fighting to death and refuse to lower the price. They also say that there is less cotton this year, and three cents and fifty cents is the cheapest price. "Invite them to Piaoxiang Tower, and I will talk to them personally." Qin Chi decided to meet these businessmen. The person has made an appointment. But these businessmen had all been greeted by others, so Qin Chi naturally returned without success. In front of others, he pretended to be worried and did not return to Cuihua Hutong until dark. Song Jin saw Qin Chi''s tired face and asked, "Are you tired, sir?" Qin Chi held her in his arms and whispered into her ear, telling her about Yuan Shangshu''s embarrassment, "I''m just pretending to be tired... I''ll show it to Yuan. I want him to be happy first..." Song Jin wanted to say that this was really a loss. But well done! The two talked about the cost of cotton clothes again. Qin Chi thought: "In order to avoid long nights and dreams, I decided to go to Shun''an Commercial Bank tomorrow to sign a purchase contract. Cotton is three yuan a pound, and cloth is one hundred and twenty yuan. How about it?" Will the price be set too high? The cost of the cotton purchased by Song Jin, after deducting transportation costs, was one cent and eighty cents per catty. The fabric was collected by Shun''an Trading Company, and the cost price was seventy-eight. Qin Chi had no guilty conscience about making shady money, "The merchants outside were insisting on 30 cents and 50 cents for cotton and 140 cents for cloth. I reduced one by 50 cents and the other by 20 cents, which can be called a conscientious price. " "Yes, my husband is a conscientious person." Song Jin agreed unconditionally. Qin Chi: "..." At first glance, it sounds like you are mocking me? ps: In ancient times, one pound was sixteen taels, but in modern times, one pound is twelve taels. 1 tael = 10 qian, 1 qian = 100 wen. Chapter 303 My young master is upright Chapter 303 My young master is upright The next morning. Qin Chi went to the Hanlin Academy first. As soon as I arrived at the Hanlin Academy, someone joked. "How is Master Qin?" The person who spoke out was named Ke Bingzhi. He is a disciple of Mr. Yang Ge. He is at the same level as Qin Chi in the Hanlin Academy. During this period, he has been quiet and has not caused any trouble to Qin Chi. He has done a good job on the surface. "I heard that Mr. Qin is contacting Cloth merchant?" "I received a mission." Qin Chi reluctantly raised the task. Ke Bingzhi looked at him sympathetically, "If you need help, just come to us. We will definitely help those who can." "Then I would like to thank Brother Bingzhi in advance." Qin Chi thanked him generously. One dares to say it and the other dares to thank. The other colleagues who were watching had amusement. Most of the people present saw that Ke Bingzhi was just being polite. Who knew Qin Chi would come out like this. "Let me tell you, no one can play tricks on Brother Qi''an. His brain is three yuan and six songs. It''s different from ours. It can''t be compared to it. It can''t be compared!" A bachelor next to him joked. It made the others happy and relieved Ke Bingzhi''s confusion. However, when Qin Chi came to the Hanlin Academy, everyone knew that he was in a state of distress. Things spread in the Hanlin Academy. It was a matter of course that it reached Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Mingcheng, who was drinking the tonic soup sent from the imperial kitchen, heard Qin Chi''s gossip again from the young eunuch. "The cotton clothes sent to the northwest have been delayed year after year. They have been in arrears for several years. Yuan Aiqing knows how to shirk the blame and leave this hot matter to Qin Qi''an." Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty put the half-eaten soup bowl on the table. The eunuch''s tray is on the side. The attendants heard what Emperor Ming Cheng said. Each one can only be deaf and dumb. The same goes for Eunuch Jixiang. It turns out that my heart is like a bright mirror. Inaction does not mean that you have not seen through it, but most of the time it is just a thought. The news that several big businessmen banded together to make things difficult for Qin Chi spread through various channels. Somehow the news spread to the city. That afternoon. Shopkeeper Tao from Shun''an Trading Company came to the Ministry of Industry and said that their firm had goods. Qin Chi finished the operation in one go. Deals were made in cotton and cloth. By the time the Yuan family and the merchant holding Qiao reacted, the goods had been counted and were being transported into Yu Hengsi''s warehouse. The payment for the goods has also been settled. A pound of cotton costs three yuan, and a piece of cloth costs one hundred and twenty yuan. This price is definitely profitable. The big businessmen were anxious and hurriedly gathered together to discuss. They had been working so hard for so long, and someone picked the peaches in the middle of the process? "How is that possible?!" "Don''t you think we are the only ones with a lot of cotton and cloth?" "It''s said that there happened to be a trading house that shipped a batch of cotton to Beijing." "Which trading house?" "Shun''an, I heard that he is a Hui merchant, who happens to be a fellow villager of Qin Zhuangyuan. He knew about Qin Zhuangyuan''s plight and went directly to the Yamen." "This Shun''an is unethical and breaks the rules of our industry." "People outside say we are rich and unkind and raise prices maliciously." "It''s broken... What should I do with the cotton in my hand? Previously, the steward of the Yuan Mansion said that the Ministry of Industry would require a large amount of cotton, so I purchased a large quantity at a high price!" The man immediately went to ask the Yuan family in a hurry. Some people were anxious to contact Qin Chi. When they gave Qin Chi a message. Qin Chi was busy watching everyone count the cotton and fabrics one by one and put them into storage. Qin Ba whispered: "Master, do you want to see me?" "Go back to them and say that I won''t prevent them from making a fortune." Qin Chi said with a smile. Qin Ba''s eyes lit up, "Let''s do it now, little one." The past two days have been suffocating him to death. Those stupid things dare to stumble his young master? They deserve their bad luck. So, outside Yu Hengsi. Several big businessmen with anxious faces did not wait for Qin Chi, but only for Qin Ba dressed as a servant. Qin Ba stepped forward proudly, "Bosses, I''m sorry, my master is busy. Fortunately, the supply of goods is no longer a problem. I have said that it will not prevent the bosses from making a fortune." "Ouch, little brother, what are you talking about?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! A middle-aged businessman with a big belly stepped forward and secretly gave Qin Ba a banknote. "Brother, tell us what''s going on. Do you still need cotton and fabric? I''m willing to sell it at cost price." " Qin Ba pinched the banknote and put it in his arms without leaving any trace. The young master said, just keep the windfall when it comes, just in time to treat the brothers to a drink. Qin Ba''s face improved after receiving the money. He glanced over the faces of several people and said regretfully: "It''s a pity that you are late. The transaction has been completed and the payment for the goods has been paid. Hey, let me tell you, it would be great to do business with my young master. I really can''t think of it. Do you understand why you insist on taking Qiao? The official business is not as smooth as mine." After hearing what Qin Ba said. Several big businessmen became increasingly uncomfortable. Its all the fault of the housekeeper of Yuan Mansion! They must be allowed to manipulate Qin Chi. No, let them shoot themselves in the foot. The most troublesome thing is that almost all the cotton and fabrics in the capital and surrounding counties are hoarded in the hands of a few of them. Is this going to be smashed into your hands? Several merchants walked away in despair. Someone didn''t miss this scene. One of them, an unknown parent, approached Qin Ba and said, "Xiao Ba, are they those black-hearted merchants?" "What nonsense are you talking about? There are no evil-minded people. My young master said that business cannot be done without mercy. They have no choice but to ask for high prices. This year''s cotton is very expensive." Qin Ba said very well. Na Changsui blinked and said, "What are you talking about? I heard that these people think that Mr. Qin is young and easy to bully, so they kicked him. According to me, they deserve to be unlucky." Many people don''t mind the drama when they watch it. It is not difficult to find out what a few merchants did. If you did that earlier, you could please the Yuan Mansion and make money. Normally it would be smooth. But no one expected that Cheng Yaojin would appear halfway. The Changsui came close to Qin Ba''s ear again and whispered in a low voice: "I heard something. It is said that no one who stands on the Yuan family''s side and opposes your young master will be able to gain favor." "Isn''t that what it should be? My young master is full of righteousness. As the storyteller has said, evil never prevails over good." Qin Ba, you know how to talk nonsense. The long follower rolled his eyes and turned around to go back to his place without finding anything. Cuihua Hutong. Song Jin, who was growing vegetables in the greenhouse, heard Mu Ting''s report. "My boss, the matter with my uncle has been stabilized. Will the news continue to spread?" Mu Ting has seen Song Jin since the last time. Later, if she needed to be contacted, Wei Yuan asked her to come over. Women dont have to worry about getting a bad reputation. Song Jin picked a basket of vegetables and said, "It''s not enough, so I evacuated the people." The rumors in the market were deliberately spread by Song Jin in order to cooperate with Qin Chi, in order to find a suitable reason for Shun''an Trading Company to find Qin Chi. The matter was settled, and Song Jin stopped at the right time. Chapter 304 Turn misfortune into good fortune, turn disaster into good fortune Chapter 304: Turning bad luck into good fortune This incident is just like the story, with twists and turns. No one sympathized with those merchants, they just said they were greedy. A keen person will ask his subordinates to investigate who is behind the merchants. It will be another great pleasure to find out who is responsible for the steward of the Yuan Mansion. Some people laughed at the Yuan family for not being able to deal with even a young man. Some people also said that they lamented Qin Chi''s good luck, as if God was chasing after him to feed him, turning misfortune into good luck, and turning misfortunes into good fortune. This incident dampened the enthusiasm for donations from the Ministry of Household Affairs. Yuhengsi Yamen. Qin Chi discussed matters with his officials. Yuanwailang said worriedly: "Sir, do we have enough money?" Qin Chi settled the account long ago and said clearly: "You guys should know that the money approved by the Ministry of Household Affairs is estimated to cost one tael of cotton clothing. Think about it, a piece of cotton costs one tael. Its about 120 cents per piece of fabric. Taking into account the labor, needles, threads and losses, 2 taels is more than enough. "My lord, that''s not how the accounts are calculated." One of the principals finally managed to hold back a sentence. They had calculated it before, and the cost was less than two taels, but when it was completed, it was nearly three taels. Otherwise, Yuan Shangshu would be so kind and grant a quota of 400,000? Qin Chi smiled calmly, "The more people pass through it, the more losses will naturally occur." In an instant, no one answered the question. Between the lines, you know everything you need to know. Qin Chi said coolly: "This time I will personally watch. Anyone who dares to reach out at this time will be chopped into pieces by me." Yuan Wailang and the two principals suddenly felt a chill running down their spines. The three people expressed their loyalty. "We will do whatever your lord tells us." Yuan Wailang assured, patting his chest, "We will not be held back." "So are we." "It all depends on your orders." The two principals secretly wiped away cold sweat. Immediately, Yuan Wailang pulled out a brochure and changed the subject at the right time, "Sir, according to the progress of our company, we can only produce up to 30,000 pieces in a month." "How many hired hands are there?" "There are nearly a thousand female workers." "A person can only do about one thing a day?" Qin Chi thought of something and asked, "How much is the monthly salary?" One of the chief officials said: "We don''t pay monthly salary, we pay it on a daily basis, thirty cash per day." The tailoring of cotton-padded clothes for border officers is not complicated, and the styles are uniform and simple, so no big tailors are needed. The employees of the Ministry of Works are basically ordinary people, well-informed locals who have their names registered in the Yuheng Division. When there is work to do, the officials will notify the foreman, who will then go door-to-door to notify them. A foreman usually manages a hundred employees. Qin Chi asked someone to bring the roster. It is densely recorded with names, place of origin and addresses. "What needs to be solved urgently now is the shortage of female workers. Do you have any suggestions?" Qin Chi asked as a routine. Yuanwailang said: "Female workers should be added. We can promote a few foremen and let them recruit people." The promoted foremen are all locals. He is much more familiar with Qin Chi, an outsider. Qin Chi left the matter to Yuan Wai Lang and others. The three of them went to work. Until Xia Yamen, when Qin Chi left, he took away a bunch of keys to the warehouse and arranged for someone to guard the warehouse. For this reason, Qin Chi left Lao Huo behind. Ten more secret guards were left behind. Qin Chi had an idea of ??what to do next, and he wanted to discuss the details with Song Jin. When it comes to doing business, his wife seems to be born with it. Willow shoots on the moon. Inside the house, the lights flickered. Qin Chi wrote at his desk and wrote down what needed attention. He went home to discuss with Song Jin and let Qin Chi perfect what he had in mind. Song Jin suggested calculating it by piece: "It''s thirty cents a day, and it''s thirty cents to finish one piece. People who want to make more money will work hard. I guess it won''t be a problem for a skilled female worker to sew two pieces a day." Passed. It will be accepted only if it is found. If it is not qualified, it will be returned for rectification. If it is damaged or lost, it will be compensated according to the price. Added some restrictions during execution. For example, a female worker who goes home to work can only receive three or five pieces at a time. Newcomers have to try it out for one day. Song Jin added: "My husband made an announcement that people in the city who are good at female prostitutes and whose family backgrounds are innocent can go to Yu Heng Division to take part-time jobs. Many women want this kind of opportunity to make money to support their families. For example, Aunt Kang and Her daughter-in-law is very good at sewing, and I have seen the clothes her family wears. Ordinary people sew and mend their own clothes at home. As long as a skilled worker teaches you how to sew military cotton uniforms, you can quickly learn how to sew them. Qin Chi suddenly became enlightened after hearing this. Song Jin''s beautiful eyes smiled slightly, "I''ll have someone send a message to Mrs. Kang tomorrow, telling her that she can go to Yu Heng Division to get a job." "I''m busy, madam." Qin Chi thought it was feasible, "Aunt Kang is quite famous in that area, so it would be no problem for her to be a foreman." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The work is not difficult to do. Just someone to point me out. He needs to arrange this tomorrow. After discussing for a while, the couple went to bed. For several days. Qin Chi was so busy that his feet didn''t even touch the ground. Song Jin wanted to come forward to help, but due to the bad influence on Qin Chi, she could only endure it. She could not let others use it to question Qin Chi''s ability afterwards, and her wife had to show up to help when handling official duties. Being caught in the rumor that he relies on his wife will harm his reputation after all. Everyone in Yu Hengsi worked hard for several days and achieved great results. The number of female workers continues to rise. After passing the test on the spot, the trial will begin. We started producing more than a thousand finished products every day, and the quantity jumped every day. It might have been faster if not for the insufficient number of people checked into the warehouse by Yu Hengsi, which slowed down the progress. Qin Chi pays close attention to quality. It has undergone triple quality inspection. First up is the foreman. When the foreman collects the cotton clothes, he will inspect them once. They will be sent to Yuheng Division for another round of inspections. They will also be randomly inspected when they are put into storage. Once you discover that you are cheating or cutting corners, you will immediately call us back to investigate and hold you accountable. You must act in accordance with the rules. It is useless for anyone to plead for mercy. Just started for five days. This completes the previous month''s quantity. Someone among them wanted to make a small move, and the people arranged by Qin Chi quickly found out the troublemaker. Kill the chicken to scare the monkey. No one is causing trouble anymore! When Yuan Shangshu returned home, he was so angry that he smashed the tea bowl on his eldest son''s head, "It''s all your fault for the idiot and your son you married. See what kind of enemies you have brought to our family?" "Dad! It''s not me who caused this." Uncle Yuan covered his head and felt aggrieved, "Everyone else is dead, so don''t mention her." A mission that should have been impossible. Who would have known that Qin Chi was so impressive that he could complete it in less than a month at this rate. Yuan Shangshu had to admit that Qin Chi was not only knowledgeable, but also very capable. He had avoided the traps he dug more than once. "Are the Yang family helping him?" Yuan Shangshu suddenly asked. Uncle Yuan said: "People from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division went to Yu Heng Division to maintain order, and someone saw Yang Yingrong." "How is the investigation going at Huizhou Prefecture?" "Dad! There really is something going on. Five or six years ago, a drug dealer in She County was suddenly ransacked and his entire family was imprisoned..." Chapter 305 Qin Chi was robbed of his credit Chapter 305 Qin Chi was robbed of his credit The Yuan family sent people to Huizhou to investigate Yang Lingyu. Before I arrived in Huizhou, I met a Huizhou businessman on the way. After drinking for three times, we talked about some experiences in Huizhou and brought up the case of the Song family, a century-old medicine merchant five or six years ago. It was emphasized that anyone who went to the Yamen to inquire was either dead or injured. It is said that the Song family has been escorted to Beijing. However, there were no major cases from Huizhou Prefecture in the capital five years ago, and the investigators immediately reported the matter back to the Yuan family. Uncle Yuan sent someone to the Yamen to investigate. There is indeed no case against the Song family. Uncle Yuan''s eyes were filled with excitement, "During Yang Lingyu''s tenure, a family suddenly went to jail and disappeared. The person who ordered the house to be searched was Yang Lingyu. As long as this matter is exposed, Yang Lingyu will definitely not get any good results." "This case is too big." Yuan Shangshu remained skeptical, "A member of a family was framed and imprisoned, and disappeared on the way to Beijing. Why didn''t Yang Lingyu report such a big case?" "If the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, what can''t you do? The Huizhou merchants also said that one of Yang Lingyu''s concubines colluded with the local pharmacy to maliciously purchase medicinal materials at low prices in order to make a fortune from disaster. This matter has long been spread throughout Huizhou..." "Is this happening?" After Yuan Shangshu thought about it, he immediately said, "Send more people to investigate and be sure to get evidence." The Yang family must be taught a lesson this time! The last time the Yang family showed off his family, Yuan Shangshu still held this breath in his chest. Uncle Yuan hurried out of the study. As soon as he stepped out of the threshold, he remembered another news. It was said that someone was investigating his unfilial son Yuan Shipeng. Thinking that people have been expelled from the family. Uncle Yuan ignored the matter again. I met the butler head-on in the corridor. The chief steward respectfully reported: "Sir, those merchants asked to see them, and the old slave took them to the side hall. Do you want to see them?" Businessmen who had lost money before approached the Yuan family. Uncle Yuan said angrily: "Why are you seeing me? Not seeing you! Let them all get lost. Why don''t you tell them that a small matter has not been settled? Why do you have the nerve to come to your door?" "Yes, I will send them away now." The housekeeper can only send people away. The mere merchants did not dare to go against the Yuan family, so they could only leave in frustration. Yuan Shangshu, who was in the study, did not know about this and was discussing with his staff how to deal with Qin Chi. "This child is growing too fast and must be suppressed as soon as possible." Yuan Shangshu felt an inexplicable sense of urgency in his heart. The staff pretended to be serious and said: "Sir, isn''t there a flood in Taihu Lake? The Ministry of Revenue has almost prepared disaster relief materials. Tomorrow''s meeting will definitely discuss the officials who will go to the disaster relief. Qin Qi''an is from Huizhou Prefecture. Huizhou is far away from Taihu Lake. It makes sense that he should go to provide disaster relief." The staff member sneered and continued: "As long as people leave Beijing, it is normal for something to happen." "This is doable." Yuan Shangshu''s eyes were clearly extinguished, hiding murderous intent. The next day there will be a large court meeting. The magnificent hall is solemn and solemn. All civil and military officials, wearing court uniforms, lined up to the left and right. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty sat majestically on the dragon throne. The courtiers are discussing disaster relief. Going to disaster relief has always been a hard job, and if you are not careful, your life will be involved. Officials have always avoided it. Suddenly, Yuan Shangshu stood up and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, the recent floods in Taihu Lake have displaced people and severely damaged farmland. It is really a serious disaster for the country. Disaster relief cannot be delayed without delay." As soon as he finished speaking, there was silence in the hall. The emperor pondered for a moment and asked: "Who does Yuan Aiqing want to recommend for disaster relief?" At this time, Yuan Shangshu pretended to be polite and turned to Qin Chi with unusual approval in his tone: "Mr. Qin has been an official in the court for a few months and is already a doctor of the Ministry of Industry. There is no doubt about his ability. Your Majesty, I heard that Mr. Qin is from Huizhou, and Taihu Lake is not far from Huizhou. He must know the local customs very well. In this case of Taihu Lake disaster, I recommend Mr. Qin. " Qin Chi''s face changed slightly. If Yuan Shangshu didn''t do it deliberately, no one would believe it. Emperor Ming Cheng looked at Qin Chi and asked, "Qin Qi''an, what do you think?" "Your Majesty, I still have a mission on my hands, and I won''t be able to leave for a while." Qin Chi mentioned the issue of 200,000 military cotton uniforms. Yuan Shangshu responded: "I will personally take over this matter, so Mr. Qin can rest assured." Shameless! Extremely shameless! The problem has been solved, and all that is left is the finishing touches. As a boss, stepping forward to take over the work at this time is tantamount to grabbing credit. The reason why Yuan Shangshu found out is sufficient. Disaster relief is indeed urgent. Qin Chi sneered secretly in his heart, but had to respond respectfully: "I am willing to share your worries for Your Majesty." After thinking about it, the emperor nodded in agreement: "Okay, I ordered Mr. Qin to set off for Taihu Lake tomorrow. He must appease the people and rebuild their homes. When you return, we will discuss your merits and reward you." As the emperor''s decree was issued, the hall fell into silence again. Although Qin Chi knew it was a trap, he could only accept the order at the moment. He slowly knelt down and said in a deep voice: "I will definitely live up to your majesty''s trust when I accept the edict." After the court meeting ended, the courtiers left one after another. And the grievances between Qin Chi and Yuan Shangshu. In this somber court meeting, it became more and more prominent. Many people sympathized with Qin Chi and secretly cursed Yuan Shangshu for his shamelessness. Emperor Ming Cheng, the only one who could speak for Qin Chi, seemed to side with Yuan Shangshu. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi stepped out of the hall. He quickly caught up with Xia Wei, the Minister of Household Affairs, and asked about the other party''s relief supplies. Xia Wei looked at Qin Chi with complicated eyes, "I''m a little pressed for time. You first go back to the Ministry of Industry and settle the matters at hand, and then come to the Ministry of Household Affairs to find me. It''s best to let the entourage go home and let them know, and let your family prepare your luggage. "Thank you for your advice, sir." Qin Chi bowed to Xia Wei. Xia Wei signaled that he was welcome, "People move too fast, and occasional setbacks may not be a good thing." After saying this, without waiting for Qin Chi''s response, Xia Wei strode down the steps. Qin Chi secretly pondered Xia Wei''s last words. He is a smart man himself. I immediately figured out the meaning of Xia Wei''s words. Since he became an official in the court, he has attracted much attention. Occasionally, it is said that someone is looking for trouble, but his promotion is genuine, and it is inevitable that he will arouse people''s jealousy. Today, he was suppressed by Yuan Shangshu, which can attract a wave of sympathy. Qin Chi was blatantly robbed of his credit, and it was not that he was not without anger, but he had always been restrained and restrained, and would not let his anger surface. People arrived at the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry. Everyone is waiting for Qin Chi. The person who came to hand over was Wang Shilang. Other officials of the Yu Heng Division already knew that Qin Chi was suddenly assigned to provide disaster relief in Taihu Lake, and the affairs at hand were temporarily taken over by Wang Shilang. This made several people who had been working hard for several days very unhappy. The last corruption case did not affect Yuan Wailang, which shows that this person is relatively clean and at least knows how to do things appropriately. To be honest, Yuan Wai Lang admires Qin Chi. I was planning to hang out with him. Today, something like this happened suddenly. Do you want to change your mind? After the handover was completed, the key to the warehouse was handed over. Wang Shilang encouraged him a few words and left. Yuan Wailang looked at Qin Chi and hesitated to speak. "Speak directly if you have something to say, don''t hesitate." Qin Chi organized the official documents on his desk. Yuan Wailang approached Qin Chi and lowered his voice and asked, "Sir, are you so willing to give up the credit?" "What kind of credit is this? It''s just my job." Qin Chi also thought about it now, "When I come back from the disaster relief work, that will be the achievement." "The lower officials admire your master''s state of mind." After holding it in for a long time, Yuan Wailang finally managed to say something. Qin Ba on the side looked inexplicably funny. Chapter 306 pregnant Chapter 306 Pregnant Cuihua Hutong. Song Jin frowned slightly, "Is this news true?" "Absolutely true." Old Man Hong received the news from the Yamen, "I have to work hard for Madam to prepare the young master''s luggage." "Okay, I understand." Song Jin began to think about what to bring Qin Chi. Thinking of the environment in the disaster area, she first picked out a few sets of clothes and shoes suitable for a change of clothes, mainly winter clothes. And for his delicate body, small packages of rare medicinal materials must be prepared. In addition, there are some sachets for repelling mosquitoes, repelling insects and calming nerves, all marked in small letters. All kinds of pills available on the market, no matter how effective they are, are prepared for Qin Chi. I also made some dry food for the road. There are not a lot of things, only a large box can fit them. Qin Chi did not return that night. It is said that there are too many things to do at the Yamen and I can''t find time to go home. For example, counting supplies in disaster areas, urging officers and soldiers to load vehicles, and preventing people from making small moves. The next day. The sky was gray and bright. Song Jin took the things to the Yamen to find Qin Chi. In front of the Yamen, there were horse-drawn carriages loaded with relief supplies. Among the people walking back and forth, Song Jin saw the busy figure at a glance. Lao Huo on the side reminded Qin Chi in a low voice: "Master, Madam is here." Qin Chi followed Lao Huo''s gaze. Sure enough, he saw Song Jin getting off the carriage, wearing a curtain hat and simple clothes. Qin Chi was delighted and strode over, "Madam!" "Ms. sir." Song Jin saw Qin Chi''s slightly haggard face and asked, "You haven''t rested all night?" "Time is too tight, I have to keep an eye on it." Qin Chi originally thought about taking a rest in the carriage on the way. Song Jin pulled Qin Chi into the carriage again and took out the prepared food box. Qin Chi knew as soon as he saw it that it was breakfast for him. When he sat down, he picked up a meat bun and stuffed it into Song Jin''s hand. "Madam, eat with me." Qin Chi said with a smile. Song Jin asked: "How long will my husband go on this trip?" "As little as four or five months, as much as a year." According to Qin Chi''s prediction, after the disaster is settled, he will not be able to return to Beijing until next spring plowing at the earliest. After Song Jin pondered for a moment, he explained his plan and said, "In a few days, I will find you through a letter from my hometown in Japan." "There''s no need to go through hardships with me." Qin Chi wanted her to go with him, but he was reluctant to do so. The Yuan family would have made other small moves to let him leave the capital, "Only when my wife stays in the capital will I be able to work with peace of mind." "You talk so nicely." Song Jinxing''s eyes were full of hope. Qin Chi felt itchy at the sight, and quickly leaned over and pecked the corner of Song Jin''s lips, "Wait for me at home." After finishing breakfast, Qin Chi got off the carriage. Song Jin did not expect that Qin Chi would refuse to agree and let outsiders know that he went to provide disaster relief and took his wife with him. It would be unpleasant to spread the news. Therefore, she thought of an excuse and told the outside world that Mr. Liu was sick and urgently needed to return to her hometown. As Yuan Shangshu said. Huizhou Prefecture is not far from Taihu Lake. The people affected by the disaster fled, and Huizhou Prefecture was inevitably spared. What''s going on over there in Yixian County is especially unknown. No matter how reluctant Song Jin was to leave, he still watched Qin Chi set off with the disaster relief team. From a distance, Qin Chi waved to her. Song Jin also raised his hand in response. A faint feeling of separation came over my heart. It was just a trace at first, hazy, but gradually became clearer and clearer. It always lingered in my heart and couldn''t go away. Until the disaster relief team, escorted by officers and soldiers, gradually drifted away and disappeared at the end of the road. "Madam, it''s time to go back." Qin Qi reminded. Song Jin narrowed her eyes to cover up the reluctance in her eyes, turned around and got into the car. The carriage drove slowly through the streets. An Ran returned to Cuihua Hutong. When getting out of the car, Song Jin was so distracted that he almost missed his footing, which frightened Qin Qi to death. "Ma''am, be careful!" Qin Qi held Song Jin''s arm. Song Jin came to her senses with lingering fear and stepped off the horse stool. At this time, her face turned slightly pale. When returning home. Soon. Doctor Jing came with a medicine box on his back. Song Jin saw him in surprise, "Why are you here?" "Xiao Qi said you are not feeling well and asked me to come and take a look." Doctor Jing came alone this time. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! This time Qin Chi went to Taihu Lake to provide disaster relief, and he should have gone with him. But his apprentice said that the master was old and proposed that he should accompany him. Qin Chi had no objection. Set up wrist pillows. Song Jin put her wrist up, and Doctor Jing covered her wrist with a handkerchief, and then started taking her pulse. After a while. Doctor Jing smiled and touched his beard, "It''s Hua Mai. Madam is pregnant, congratulations." Song Jin was stunned for a long time, "Seriously?" "Really, it''s almost two months. Madam is in good health and doesn''t need to drink the medicine to repair the fetus. Pay more attention to rest and don''t overwork yourself." Doctor Jing gave a few words, then took the red seal and Went out happily. It won''t take long. Everyone in the family knew that Song Jin was pregnant. Old Li Tou, Qin Ba and Lao Huo went with Qin Chi to provide disaster relief. Four people, including Old Man Hong and Qin Qi, stayed at home. The happiest person was Old Man Hong, who immediately wrote three secret letters. One letter was to be sent to Qin Chi, who had just left Beijing, one to Huangshan, and the other to the northwest. I dont know how pregnancy is in other families, but it is a huge joy for the Qin family. Song Jin was in a mood for a long time. It was like walking on the clouds, and her whole body was light and airy. It had been five or six years since her last pregnancy, and she had not been pregnant for several years. This was partly due to the fact that she and Qin Chi were together less and separated more, and also because having twins was more harmful to the body. Song Jin thought it would be difficult to conceive a child in this life. Unexpectedly, I suddenly became pregnant! What an unexpected surprise. The arrival of the child actually alleviated the sadness of parting at this time. In the days that followed, Song Jin took care of her baby and entertained neighbors who came to visit her from time to time. Occasionally I heard a gossip that someone in Cuihua Hutong went to the Ministry of Industry to get a job sewing cotton clothes. It was fine for the first few days. When the cotton clothes were handed in, they would be paid if they passed the inspection. Later, I don''t know what happened, but the person in charge said that the money that Doctor Qin had put in the account had been used up, and any further application for money would have to be approved by the boss. On-the-spot settlement became accounting. Fortunately, Qin Chi had the foresight to settle the accounts of cotton and cloth. Otherwise, if Yuan Shangshu takes over, he may be asked to return the goods or delay the payment. "Ah Qi, come here." Song Jin whispered a few words in Qin Qi''s ear. Qin Qi raised her eyebrows, nodded and left. Two days later, the hired workers complained. The Ministry of Works has not settled the accounts for several days, and the original enthusiasm of the workers has become less and less intense. Some people say that the Ministry of Works cannot do without Dr. Qin. Look, something is wrong without Dr. Qin, and even wages cannot be settled. Wang Shilang was ridiculed by his colleagues, and then he realized that something was wrong. The silver is kept with Yuan Shangshu. He has said it several times, but Yuan Shangshu always says there is no rush. This is good, Yuan Shangshu, who wanted to divert the money to pay for bad debts, had no choice but to give up. It would be shameless to allow rumors to spread. It didn''t take long for the employees'' accounts to be settled clearly, and daily settlement resumed. Two hundred thousand military cotton uniforms can be completed in less than a month. Don''t wait for Yuan Shangshu to take the next step. A military general led a team of logistics soldiers, neatly loaded the 200,000 pieces of cotton clothing from the warehouse into trucks, and left the city that day and night. Chapter 307 So angry that everything is full of smoke Chapter 307: So angry that everything is burning Yuan Shangshu was so anxious that he had someone rush to intercept him. Who dares to use the cotton clothes in the warehouse without his approval? As a result, I received a reply. The military general said that Qin Chi had contacted him in advance. There were official documents and the official seal of the Yamen on it, confirming that these cotton clothes were sent to the northwest military camp. This made Yuan Shangshu so angry! If you want to take something from him, who wouldn''t first please him and ask him repeatedly before agreeing? Yuan Shangshu was convinced that Qin Chi could defeat him. This was not done covertly. It was soon known by others. When they learned that Qin Chi went to provide disaster relief and played tricks on Yuan Shangshu, everyone was overjoyed to hear this and even told it as a joke to their juniors. Then, which family doesnt have a few dandies? So it spread in a small area. Being able to defeat a powerful minister like Yuan Shangshu, Qin Chi''s image suddenly became taller in their eyes. Qin Chi was also said to be powerful in the past. But it gives the impression that he still cannot beat Yuan Shangshu. In fact? Yuan Shangshu didn''t get any favors from Qin Chi either. So what if you take the credit? Qin Chi has become famous. Unexpectedly, this time Yuan Shangshu suffered the loss of being dumb. He couldn''t say it openly. He had to pretend to smile when he saw people, and he couldn''t say a bad word about Qin Chi. There is nothing on the surface of Yuan Shangshu. Behind the scenes, two groups of people were arranged to assassinate Qin Chi. There are many informants in the capital. If Yuan Shangshu wants to kill someone, it is not that easy to clean up the murder. It is different outside. After killing the target, the murderer can fly away. As long as people don''t return to the capital, who can catch the Yuan family? Therefore, while Qin Chi was still on the way, he encountered two assassinations. Naturally, Qin Chi was not one to swallow his anger. He immediately wrote a secret report to Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty, suspecting that spies from other countries wanted to murder the imperial officials of Daxia. For example, he, a disaster relief official, was assassinated twice as soon as he stepped out of the capital. He made it clear what was going on behind the scenes. The spies are crazy and the people of Taihu are waiting for life-saving supplies. They are so cruel that they want to disturb the peace of Daxia. The level he has risen to is very high, and I hope Emperor Mingcheng will investigate thoroughly. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty was very angry when he saw the secret memorial. Immediately ordered the Jin Yiwei to investigate, and sent another Jin Yiwei to protect Qin Chi. "Bastard thing!" Emperor Mingcheng was really angry this time, "I have personally awarded the number one scholar of three yuan and six titles this year, and someone dares to attack him? This means they don''t take me seriously." The newly crowned number one scholar was assassinated in less than a year. How will history books write about him in the future? ! "Your Majesty, calm down and don''t get so angry." The old **** next to him comforted him. Emperor Mingcheng laughed angrily, "Why don''t I get angry? Go and send the Minister of Industry to see me." A young **** immediately followed the order and went out. After a while, Yuan Shangshu hurriedly came to see the saint. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty threw the secret memorial into Yuan Shangshu''s face. According to Yuan Shangshu''s understanding of Emperor Ming Cheng for many years, Emperor Ming Cheng was in a rage. Such an emperor could kill him at any time. Yuan Shangshu was so shocked that he knelt down. Then he opened the secret music tremblingly. When he saw the above content, he almost vomited three liters of blood. Qin Qian really defeated me! "Is it someone you sent?" Emperor Ming Cheng didn''t need any evidence and just made a conclusion like this. Yuan Shangshu was shocked into a cold sweat. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty was headstrong and self-willed. You can''t accept the truth he believes. Therefore, Yuan Shangshu gave a compromise explanation: "Your Majesty, I just want to scare him so that he will respect me in the future. I have no intention of killing him." "Oh, do you think I''m easy to fool?" Emperor Mingcheng pointed at Yuan Shangshu and was furious. Yuan Shangshu kowtowed repeatedly, "It''s true. How dare I fool you? Think about my ability. If I really wanted to assassinate Qin Qi''an, how could I let him escape twice?" Emperor Mingcheng sneered, "I didn''t succeed in killing him, but it became a reason for you to get away with it." There is a huge disparity in strength between the two. Failure to kill him can really be used as an excuse. Emperor Mingcheng brushed his clothes and sat down majestically, "I don''t care whether you really kill him or want to scare him. He must live for me as long as I reign." "Yes, I was wrong. Please forgive me." "Get out!" Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty picked up the inkstone and threw it at Yuan Shangshu. Yuan Shangshu rolled out and crawled out. He was still frightened until he left the palace. "Qin Qian..." Yuan Shangshu gritted his teeth. This is another trick for Qin Chi. At the same time, he knew that Emperor Ming Cheng would protect Qin Chi, but he did not expect that he would protect Qin Chi so unreasonably. If something happened to Qin Chi, he would think of him and there was no need to investigate until he returned to the Yuan family. When Yuan Shangshu stepped into his courtyard, he vomited out a mouthful of old blood, "It''s too much to bully others! It''s simply too much to bully others!" "master!" The servants who saw it hurriedly stepped forward to support Yuan Shangshu. Then there was a chaos of war in the courtyard. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Wait for the government doctor to come and take Yuan Shangshu''s pulse. Yuan Shangshu waved him away, and the palace doctor went outside to prescribe medicine. After a while, the staff living in the palace came to visit. After retreating, Yuan Shangshu mentioned the matter to his staff, "Your Majesty now believes that I am the mastermind behind the scenes." "This makes no sense." The staff also felt angry after hearing this. Yuan Shangshu sneered, "How has our Majesty ever tried to reason with anyone? In the first half of his life, he would have pretended better, but now he doesn''t bother to pretend to anyone." Even if it was really them. But without evidence, who can do anything to him? The staff was puzzled and asked: "Why is Your Majesty protecting Qin Qi''an?" "He is not protecting Qin Qi''an, he is protecting his own face. Yes, I am too anxious." Yuan Shangshu thought that Qin Qi''an was a new student this year, and he had only been an official in the court for a few months. If he died of assassination now, it would be a disgrace to the Tian family. Yuan Shangshu could only order people to withdraw the killer. "Sir, is this the end of the matter?" The staff noticed Yuan Shangshu''s unwillingness. Yuan Shangshu shook his head, "What do you think sir?" "As long as a person is not aware of it, it is like a person''s birth, old age, illness and death." The staff knew that if a person died alone, it did not have to be assassinated. It could be disguised as an accidental death or death from illness. The two looked at each other and nodded in agreement. What''s going on over there with Qin Chi. Song Jin spent quiet time at home. However, Old Man Hong came to mention it to Song Jin, saying that Qin Chi had encountered some troubles and had alerted the emperor, but it was just a near miss, so Song Jin should not panic when he heard any news and could rest assured to raise the baby. Two months have passed. The winter wind was freezing, but fortunately the snow didn''t fall heavily. In early December, shopkeeper Tao, whom he had not seen for a long time, suddenly came to tell Song Jin that there was an urgent need for food in Taihu Lake and asked Song Jin if he had any food. "Young master said I would buy it, but the price won''t be very high, based on the price before the disaster. The disaster in Taihu Lake is far more serious than we know, and tens of thousands of people are in urgent need of food and life-saving food." Song Jin naturally has food. There were even several granaries built privately. Song Jin immediately wrote a letter, stamped with the family seal, and asked Qin Chi to use it to collect grain from the granary closest to Taihu Lake. A person''s name and address were also given. Shopkeeper Tao was so grateful that his eyes filled with tears. He bowed deeply to Song Jin and said, "I would like to thank Madam for your generosity." "No need to be polite. Helping my husband is also helping myself." Song Jin avoided Shopkeeper Tao''s gift. Shopkeeper Tao resigned in a hurry after receiving the receipt for collecting grain. From the fact that Shopkeeper Tao lost a lot of weight, it can be seen that the disaster relief work in Taihu Lake was not as smooth as expected. Otherwise there is no need to go out of your way to find her. (End of chapter) Chapter 308 Three letters home Chapter 308 Three letters from home Song Jin''s words are not polite, but true. Husband and wife share weal and woe. Helping Qin Chi solve the disaster will be beneficial to Song Jin. After Qin Chi left Beijing, the capital did not change much, and there were still many topics about him. In addition, I heard that Emperor Mingcheng went to Nuange Maodong, and government affairs were handled by cabinet ministers. Song Jin returned to Huizhou in addition to seeing off the New Year. At the end of the year its time to take stock again. The remaining cotton after earlier selling it to the Ministry of Industry was put into the capital market at a price of three cents per catty, and was quickly sold out. As for Jifang Pharmacy, it has been temporarily closed since the confrontation with the Liu family. Only some of the medicinal materials inside were kept as spares, and the rest were sold to Shun''an Trading Company. As far as Song Jin knows. Shun''an Trading Company either sent them to the northwest or to the disaster area. Compared with the high righteousness of Shun''an Trading Company, Song Jin knew that he was a proper businessman. There is no benefit in getting up early. But the income in a year is very considerable. Based on the current income, we can quickly build a merchant ship. "Madam, we have a visitor." Mrs. Pan came to report. Song Jin closed the account book and asked outside the door: "Which house does it belong to?" "It''s from Lingdinghou Mansion." Mrs. Pan replied. Song Jin was surprised, "Why are there people coming to this Marquis Mansion? My husband is not at home." Confused, Song Jin went out to meet the guests. People came to the hall. A young man was sitting. He was tall and majestic. You could tell at a glance that he was a military commander. Behind him stood two soldiers. There is hot tea on the tea table next to it, half of which has been drunk. There are two camphor wood boxes and a large package on the floor in the hall. As soon as the general saw Song Jin coming out, he immediately stood up and saluted politely, "Pei Xi has met Madam. This time it is Young Master Ling. Seeing that I am going back to Beijing to report on my duties, I specially asked me to bring some northwest local rituals to Qin Zhuangyuan." "Thank you for your hard work, sir." Song Jin exchanged polite words with the other party. Pei Xi left without staying longer. When he came back, he also heard that Qin Chi had gone to Taihu Lake to provide disaster relief and would not be able to come back for a while. He only had his wife at home, and as a foreign man, he would not stay for long. Qin Qi came over and opened the box. It''s full of stuff. The things are a bit complicated, but not too little. One box is filled with cordyceps, raisins, dried fruits, etc., and the other box is filled with highland barley wine, and there are hundreds of kilograms of beef jerky. It is said to be a soil instrument, but it is indeed a soil instrument. Grab a small handful of raisins. Song Jin stuffed one into his mouth, "It''s very sweet and delicious. If the other party hadn''t sent Tuyi here today, I would have almost forgotten that my husband has such a classmate and friend." "He went to the Northwest Army Camp." Qin Qi knew that the journey to the northwest was far away and it was not easy to contact him. "I have some conscience. I still remembered to send some earthen gifts to the young master. I didn''t see his congratulatory gift when he won the first prize." Song Jin was amused, "Call Aunt Feng and the others to come over and pack these things. Send a jar of wine to Uncle Hong. The rest will be opened when your young master returns home." "I thought Madam would ask someone to take her to Taihu Lake." "It''s not worth it for stuttering." Song Jin didn''t want to trouble his men. It was bone-chilling cold in this winter, just to give Qin Chi some food. Would he be short of that food? Don''t say it''s a disaster area. There is also Shun''an Trading Company there. Song Jin was a little regretful that she couldn''t go back to Huizhou this year, couldn''t see her son and daughter, and Qin Chi wasn''t here either. She needed to stay in the capital alone to celebrate the New Year. As luck would have it, she suddenly became pregnant. If she was not pregnant, even if Qin Chi refused, she would probably go back to Huizhou. Qin Qi called Chef Feng and Mrs. Pan to move things. Song Jin sat on a chair in the hall and watched them working back and forth. Even if she wanted to help with these rough things, the three of them wouldn''t let her do it. Just at this moment, Old Man Hong came over with a stack of invitations in his hand. Qin Qi took it at the door, turned around and walked towards Song Jin, "Madam, the young master is not in the capital, and there are not many posts sent to him." "You have to give it as a gift." Song Jin knew there were twists and turns. For example, whether I go or not is my problem. If you don''t send an invitation, it''s your problem. "If there is something festive, just send a congratulatory gift." Qin Qi asked again: "Where is the palace banquet? Madam, do you want to attend?" The palace banquet at the end of the year is held every year by the Ministry of Rites. Song Jin thought for a while and then said: "When the people from the Ministry of Etiquette came to confirm the attendance list, they said that I am pregnant and it is not very comfortable and it is not suitable to attend the palace banquet." Pregnancy is a good excuse. The mention of the palace reminded Song Jin of an earlier time when she received a reward from the queen. She was supposed to enter the palace to express her gratitude. Later, when she went to the palace gate and inquired, she learned that only women of third rank or above were eligible to enter the palace to see the queen. Song Jin was not the royal wife, she did not have a royal decree, and she was not even qualified to submit a request for an audience. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Unless the queen suddenly wants to see her. Otherwise, you can''t even get close to the palace gate. It is said that the queen is old and in poor health, and rarely sees people outside the palace. The so-called gratitude can only be ignored. Anyway, when she was in front of the palace gate that day, she knelt down and kowtowed to express her gratitude, which was considered a perfect etiquette. The closer we get to the New Year. As the number of favors increased, Song Jin often received New Year gifts from others at home. Song Jin would return a gift when he learned about it. On New Year''s Eve, my home was decorated very festively, with new couplets and window grilles, and festive lanterns hanging. However, in the dead of night, I was lying on the bed alone, listening to the sound of firecrackers outside. A kind of sadness called longing came over my heart. "lady." Qin Qi was knocking on the door outside the house. Judging from her brisk tone, it shouldn''t be a bad thing. Song Jin stood up and opened the door, "It''s so late, what can I do?" "The young master sent someone to deliver something back." Qin Qi handed Song Jin a small baggage. Song Jin took it and closed the door. He walked to the table, put the bundle on the table, untied it slowly, and saw three letters above. Song Jin picked it up and found the letter on it was "Her Majesty''s Letter", which was obviously Qin Chi''s handwriting. The remaining two letters are both "Mother''s Letter". The handwriting on one letter was straight and the handwriting on the other letter was crooked. Song Jin didn''t need to open the letter to read the contents, and tears instantly filled her eyes. Then she opened Qin Chi''s letter. The first part is about saying hello, and then writing about the situation of Taihu Lake, saying that the disaster situation has been stabilized, and that when I leave for Beijing next spring, I dont write about lovesickness, but I hide my longing in every sentence. When it comes to playing with words, you are definitely a scholar. Song Jin then opened the letter with regular handwriting. It was a letter written by his son. There was a pretended concern in the words, which warmed people''s hearts. The signature is Er Linzhang. When I opened my daughter''s letter again, I felt like I had just learned to write, like a dog crawling. A piece of paper seemed to be full of words, but in fact there were only a few sentences that I could only guess at. The last sentence actually asked my mother when she would return home? Niuniu misses you. Song Jin burst into tears for a moment. As for who she owed in this life, it was her own children. However, the current situation is not clear, and it is safer for the children to stay in Huizhou. Chapter 309 Something happened to Qin Chi Chapter 309 Something happened to Qin Chi The other items in the bag are pastries and snacks eaten during the New Year holidays in Huizhou. Wrap well in oiled paper. Song Jin opened a pack of sesame candies that he had eaten at home in previous years. She picked up a piece and put it into her mouth. The familiar taste made her cry again. After reading the letter several times, I carefully folded it and put it away. During the New Year. There was heavy snow falling outside. Qin Qi and the others often have to go out to clear the snow, for fear that the house will collapse. The neighbors in Cuihua Hutong did not come to visit again. Instead, Xiao Xi came. They talked about the excitement of the palace banquet. He started talking about a certain young lady who shined at the palace banquet, and then talked about which young man had outstanding literary talent and was praised by His Majesty, etc. Later, the story changed and it was replaced by a lady from a certain family who made a fool of herself at the palace banquet. She didn''t understand the rules and made a fuss. Then she said which lady was brave enough to have a private meeting with a man at the palace banquet. The man was still A married young master from a certain Earl''s Mansion. "Where did you hear so much gossip?" Song Jin asked with surprise. While cracking melon seeds, Xiao Xi said with a smile: "I know a lot of people. After my young lady got married, she added two more maids and a mother-in-law. There was also a dowry mother-in-law taking care of the yard, and the young lady worked all day long. When I go on duty, I will only be in charge of the warehouse for the lady, so I will be free all day long." There are many servants in Liuzhai. Just serving two serious masters. Xiao Xi is considered a senior maid, and her work is easy. Song Jin smiled and waited for her to say more. Xiao Xi added: "I like coming to your place the most." "Why? Because I have delicious food here?" Song Jin looked at Xiao Xi who was rounded up. Xiao Xi actually didn''t deny it, "The delicious food is one of the reasons, and the other reason is that I feel very comfortable getting along with Mrs. Qin. I feel like a person, not a slave." Song Jin didn''t know what to say. Xiao Xi added: "When I was here with you, you didn''t say that I didn''t understand the rules. Someone else would have scolded me." "So you know it too." Song Jin chuckled. Xiao Xi first came to Song Jin as a test, but after getting along with her, she became more sincere. Later, she regarded Song Jin as her sister and talked about everything, "I''m not afraid of making you laugh. I used to think that the lady was very good to me." , after getting to know you and making comparisons, it will actually be like that. " Song Jin picked up a piece of rice cake and stuffed it into Xiao Xi''s mouth, "It''s good that you understand some of the words." "Don''t I treat you as one of my own?" Xiao Xi chewed the rice cake in a few mouthfuls and then swallowed, "Come on, I should go back. I heard that people from the Liu family are coming next year. I don''t know how busy the house will be by then." "Come to my house when you have time." Song Jin took a half-folded raisin and stuffed it into Xiao Xi''s hand, "It''s a gift from someone. I''ll give you some to eat back." "Then I won''t be polite." Xiao Xi put away the raisins and left happily. After she left, Qin Qi came out from the darkness and said, "Madam, it seems that the Liu family will make some moves in the coming year." "Send more people to keep an eye on it." Song Jin and Xiao Xi met in "Wei Mo". Of course, this was what Xiao Xi thought. Now that the identities of Song Jin and her have changed, Song Jin doesn''t take it seriously and still has the same attitude as when they met. Wouldn''t this just let Xiao Fai come to visit us? How can an official''s wife treat a slave as a human being? Song Jin is one of the rare people. Time flies. In a blink of an eye, February is here and spring begins. It is spring plowing season and the weather is fine today. The sun was shining warmly on people, so Song Jin asked people to put the bedding in the house to dry in the sun. Song Jin was six or seven months pregnant. There will be letters from Taihu Lake every month. According to Qin Chi''s wish, he can return to Beijing when the spring plowing bears fruit. "Counting the time, the young master will be back in a month. Would you like my wife to make some new clothes for the young master?" Qin Qi came out holding the quilt and put it on the bamboo shelf in front of the courtyard. "It''s time to prepare." Qin Chi''s clothes for the four seasons were also prepared by Song Jin. Most of the time, she does not sew by herself, but asks the embroiderer in the shop to do it. Song Jin was now pregnant and handed over the business to Xing Lun. Just got some time to relax. He did whatever he thought of, and immediately went to the warehouse with Qin Qi to pick out a piece of navy blue cloth, and cut it up. It looked like a man''s clothes. "Madam, Miss Mu wants to see you." Qin Qi blocked Mu Ting who was coming in a hurry. Mu Ting looked anxious, "My boss, I have something urgent to report." "Ah Qi, let Mu Ting come in." Song Jin put down the scissors and said to Qin Qi with a smile, "Help me bring a bowl of hot tea to the guests." "lady" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! For the first time, Qin Qi did not leave. The calmness and calmness just now were broken. There was an anxious look on his face, and he had long been unable to care about the arrogance. Song Jin''s smile gradually faded, and she looked at Qin Qi with clear eyes. Qin Qi slowly lowered her head and half-knelt on the ground to apologize. However, she remained silent. This attitude is obviously to hide something. Song Jin sent: "Ah Qi, go make tea." "Yes, ma''am." Qin Qi stood up and walked to the tea room with a solemn expression. He glanced at Mu Ting when he passed by her. Mu Ting felt a chill running down her spine. After Qin Qi walked away, Song Jin looked at Mu Ting and said, "Tell me, what happened outside?" "Yes, yes..." When Mu Ting was about to say something, she saw Song Jin''s bulging belly and suddenly couldn''t speak. Song Jin said sharply: "Speak quickly!" "It''s a letter from Taihu Lake, saying that Mr. Qin fell suddenly ill. His chief attendant is seeking medical treatment everywhere, but the doctors who went to see him all said that the condition is very serious. It may be..." Mu Ting held it in for a long time before struggling. He could only hold back the words "time is running out". Song Jin felt his head roaring when he heard this. His body was unsteady and on the verge of collapse. Mu Ting quickly stepped forward to support Song Jin, "My boss, Mr. Qin is auspicious and everything will be fine." Song Jin suddenly held his stomach. My stomach hurts slightly. Qin Qi came out with tea. When he saw this, he couldn''t care about anything else. "Quick! Help Madam into the room and lie down. I''ll ask Doctor Jing to come over." He threw away the tea bowl in his hand. Qin Qi suddenly disappeared. When she came back, she held Doctor Jing in her hand. Song Jin was half lying on the low couch, his face slightly pale, and his hands were caressing his bulging abdomen again and again. She was trying her best to calm her raging emotions. Doctor Jing came up to check his pulse. After a while, he changed his wrist again. "The fetus is fine, madam, don''t worry too much." Doctor Jing remembered the news from Taihu Lake and knew why Song Jin was like this. Compared to the time Mu Ting came to report. Old Man Hong received the news a few days ago. Worried that Song Jin would be stimulated and affect the fetus, people hid Song Jin in a flash. But against all odds, Song Jin still knew. Chapter 310 The reason for the accident Chapter 310 The reason for the accident After Song Jin drank the anti-fetal medicine, he asked Qin Qi to invite Old Man Hong over, "Uncle Hong, please tell me carefully about the situation with my husband-in-law." Seeing Song Jin calm down so quickly, Old Man Hong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he can withstand the incident, he said, "This news came from the spies in Suzhou Mansion. I am sending someone to contact the young master. Please Madam, please wait with peace of mind. The baby in your belly must be the first priority in everything." Now Old Man Hong is afraid that Song Jin will act on his own initiative, and he is also worried that she will have to go to the Taihu disaster area to find Qin Chi if she wants to live or die. You must know that the journey is not close, and the carriage will take nearly 20 days at the fastest. People in the capital received the news that "time is running out" as stated in the letter. By the time they got there, the day lilies were already cold. Song Jin had a doubt in his heart, "Uncle Hong, shouldn''t someone be watching over my husband?" "Does Madam have any misunderstanding about me?" Old Man Hong suddenly asked back. Song Jin looked at Old Man Hong in confusion. Old Man Hong saw that she really didn''t understand and was not pretending to be ignorant, so he explained patiently: "As a subordinate, you must first understand your position. It is taboo to pry into the master''s whereabouts and secrets, let alone put your eyes on it." Come to the master. Everything I knew before was what the master asked me to know or required me to do. It was all within my duties and I never overstepped my bounds." Song Jin now hoped that he would override it so that she could know the specific situation at Qin Chi''s side. The news the two received was what was rumored by the outside world. This actually gave Song Jin hope. Rumors that he is about to die and his days are numbered have happened to Qin Chi more than once or twice. Song Jin, who was worried, didn''t know. The affected areas of Taihu Lake. In a simple courtyard. There are guards guarding the courtyard in front of the gate. The strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine wafts out of the hospital every day. Qin Chi has been ill for about ten days. Except for the invited doctor, the hospital is almost closed to thank guests, but his condition has touched the hearts of many people. Just like the people affected by the disaster in Taihu Lake. People outside only knew that Mr. Qin was critically ill from exhaustion, and some people spontaneously went to the temple to pray for him. It is not without reason that the people love Qin Chi. Taihu Lake is hit not once or twice, but every three to five times. The difference is just in size. This year is especially serious. The number of deaths is the lowest ever. The big reason is that there are different officials involved in disaster relief. Some come here to do practical things, while others just deal with the situation. Qin Chi not only brought a large amount of materials with him, but also specially assigned personnel to keep an eye on the materials when distributing them, so as to avoid corruption and actually distribute all the disaster relief materials to the hands of the affected people. The most important thing is that Qin Chi solved the problem of food shortage and prevented the people from being unable to survive and causing unrest. At present, the people are spending the winter safely and their lives are gradually returning to normal. They have received the rice seeds distributed by the government and started spring plowing. Originally this was a good thing. Qin Chi suddenly fell ill. The illness was severe, and there were rumors that it was caused by months of hard work, which made Qin Chi''s reputation and prestige in this area rise by more than a little. "Have you checked it out?" Qin Chi asked while lying in bed. Qin Ba on the side reported: "Sir, the poisoner has been caught and has contacted County Magistrate Yang. Magistrate Yang was very happy when he heard that he had received the credit and agreed." "Finally, we have taken a step forward." Qin Chi guessed that the mastermind behind the poisoning was probably Yuan Shangshu. "Proceed as originally planned, let Qin Yi and the others act more covertly, and don''t let Jin Yiwei discover the clues." "yes." Qin Ba took the order and hurried out. He went out not to handle this matter, but to inform Qin Yi and others who were hiding outside. Due to the appearance of the Jinyi Guards, Qin Chi could only ask the secret guards to evacuate, otherwise no one would find a loophole. The cause was winter fatigue. It was true that Qin Chi was ill. It was not as serious as the outside world said. He just suffered from wind and cold. During this period of time, Dr. Xiao Jing took personal care of him, and he has almost recovered. A few days ago, someone tampered with his medicine and added raw Nanxing. Shengnanxing is poisonous. People who are poisoned will experience numbness of the lips and tongue, burning sensation in the throat, loss of taste, dizziness, palpitation, numbness of the limbs, and in severe cases, coma and convulsions. The amount the other party placed was not large. Some people just want Qin Chi to give the illusion that he died of illness. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Fortunately, Dr. Xiao Jing would check Qin Chi before taking the medicine, so he avoided a disaster. Qin Chi simply took advantage of the situation and deliberately told others that he was critically ill. Order someone to find out who poisoned him. Later, it was discovered that he was inextricably linked to the Yuan family. Qin Chi did not expose it directly. Instead, he hooked up with a county magistrate named Yang to put all the credit on him. The reason is that the county magistrate is a descendant of a branch of the Yang family. In order to guide the government to catch the poisoner, Qin Chi took great pains. The reason is that this person is too stupid. The clues were handed to him, but unfortunately it still took him more than ten days to catch the poisoner. One has to wonder whether he used the back door of Yang''s family when he became county magistrate. Qin Chi had received news earlier that the Yuan family was secretly investigating Yang Lingyu''s criminal evidence when he was the magistrate of Huizhou. It was not like he had done nothing to relieve disasters here in Taihu Lake, such as arranging for people to secretly send evidence that Yang Lingyu and the Zeng family framed the Song family. Got out. Calculating the time, when he returns to the capital, Yuan Shangshu will almost have the evidence of Yang Lingyu''s crime. At this time, there was a sound of footsteps. "Oh, Master Qin, are you feeling better?" The person who came was none other than County Magistrate Yang, with a big belly and a flattering look on his face. Qin Chi said weakly but politely: "Mr. Yang is too polite. The person who poisoned the poison has been caught. Can the person behind it be found out?" "The trial is under way. Don''t worry, Mr. Qin. I will definitely have someone investigate the matter clearly. The person who poisoned the poison is a small official in the yamen. His family was arrested. This is to threaten him. Poisoning the Lord''s medicine." "I''d like to thank County Magistrate Yang for taking the trouble." "No matter where you are, this is your duty." Magistrate Yang sat there for a while, then left with satisfaction, and quickly went to the Yamen to urge the arrester to handle the case. Qin Yi asked someone to pretend to be a passerby and lead the arrester to where the young official''s family was trapped, and captured several more accomplices. After another two days, the person behind the poisoning incident was finally arrested. This person is Yuan Shangshu''s confidant. When he was caught, he wanted to commit suicide, so Qin Yi and others stopped him in time, and then took his portrait and began to investigate his whereabouts in Taihu Lake. Qin Chi used some tricks. Even if Song Jin gave him the medicine, it would cause hallucinations when people take it. Using this interrogation method may not be 100% accurate and effective, but it is still possible to dig out the real culprit. Thus, Yuan Shangshu was exposed! In addition, Magistrate Yang is a fool. After asking Qin Chi to fool a few words, he would write a memorial to the Yuan family, condemning Yuan Shangshu for sending people to poison the disaster relief officials. Chapter 311 layout Chapter 311 Layout "I am going back to the capital. I will take this memorial to the capital on the way. I will definitely thank Magistrate Yang in front of your majesty. You can rest assured and wait for your majesty''s commendation." After the person who assassinated Qin Chi was arrested. Qin Chi told the public that he was lucky enough to meet a great doctor, his condition had improved, and he would return to Beijing soon. Since Qin Chi gave him the credit, County Magistrate Yang almost thanked Qin Chi profusely. Naturally, he didn''t mind handing the book to Qin Chi and politely asked him to help polish it. Magistrate Yang asked: "How is it? Is there anything wrong with it?" After Qin Chi read it, he actually gave some pointers, "You were too deliberate in praising His Majesty at the beginning. To put it in a darker way, His Majesty has heard too many compliments all day long. This statement is clich. You should so" After some advice from Qin Chi. Magistrate Yang suddenly became enlightened. I can''t wait to go back and write the book again right away. Qin Chi pointed to the back again, "Remove the word suspected. We have evidence. That person is a member of the Yuan family, and we have his testimony. If we continue to use suspicion, we are misleading His Majesty, making him think that you have not found out yet." Eager to report. "Your Excellency is right." Magistrate Yang changed it again. Qin Chi returned the fold to him and said, "When you have finished correcting it, bring it to me for a look." "Definitely, thank you for your generous advice, sir." Magistrate Yang said with a flattering smile on his greasy, fat face, "Sir, on the day you leave to return to Beijing, I will arrange for the common people to send you the Wanmin Umbrella." "Then Mr. Qin will thank you." Qin Chi bowed his hands, then raised his hand to signal Magistrate Yang to come over, and whispered, "We must also think of ways to praise His Majesty, make up a ballad or ask the people to write a letter to thank His Majesty for his kindness. I will bring it back to Jingrang Your Majesty is happy. It will be much easier for me to ask for merit for you then. Remember that when you are a county magistrate, you must not seek any merit but must have no faults. " After saying that, he patted Magistrate Yang on the shoulder and raised his eyebrows with a look that said you understand. Magistrate Yang cannot handle the case. I have a lot of experience in camping on the trail, and I understood it immediately. So on the day Qin Chi set out to return to Beijing. Countless people outside the city came to see them off, and one representative presented him with an umbrella of all people. In addition, a song was played in praise of Emperor Mingcheng. One or two sentences in it also mentioned Qin Chi. The general idea was to praise Emperor Mingcheng for knowing people well and sending honest officials. The old man came to provide relief. The gratitude letters written by the common people to Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty were written on long silk. Of course Magistrate Yang sent someone behind his back to do this. The signature is real. A household head can receive a pound of grain by signing. Who wouldnt be willing to sign? If you don''t know how to write, just put your fingerprint on it. Qin Chi stood on the carriage and waved goodbye to the people behind him. "Sir, these people are so enthusiastic." Old Huo said cheerfully, "I can''t bear to leave." Qin Ba said with a smile: "I hope the young master won''t leave, but I don''t hope you won''t leave. I''ll spare you the trouble." Qin Chi lowered his head and got into the car. The driver was still Old Li Tou. With so many people leaving Beijing, its almost as easy to go back. But the convoy behind them was empty, the supplies were gone, and the speed was much faster than before. In fact, it was almost the same because there was an extra group of imperial guards among the people escorting them. Without this team of royal guards, it would be equivalent to Emperor Ming Cheng having his eyes and ears around him. Qin Chi would not have to waste half a month here if he wanted to drag down the Yang family behind Magistrate Yang. It must be done in a logical manner without leaving any traces or handles. Wouldnt it be time-consuming and laborious? The mission of the Jin Yiwei is to protect Qin Chi. Although it makes Qin Chi slightly inconvenient, the victory is that the Jin Yiwei does not interfere with his decision-making for disaster relief. For this trip, the pros outweigh the cons. Qin Chi took advantage of Jin Yiwei''s prestigious reputation to make local officials treat him respectfully and complete the assigned tasks quickly and well. Without any hindrances, the disaster relief work went extremely smoothly. On the way home, Jin Yiwei will lead the way. It was smooth sailing all the way, not even a little mouse. It''s dark. The group of people settled at the inn. Qin Chi suddenly received a message from the capital, saying that Song Jin had learned that he was critically ill and was so shocked that the fetus was unstable and wanted to see a doctor. This made Qin Chi angry and sent someone back to the capital overnight. "Master Qin, what''s going on?" Chen Qianhu had just fallen asleep and was woken up again. He thought something had happened to Qin Chi, but when he came he saw Qin Chi''s entourage packing their bags. Qin Chi stood quietly under the eaves, looking up in the direction of the capital, and said apologetically: "Sorry, I disturbed Chen Qianhu''s rest." Chen Qianhu asked: "Master Qin, can you tell me what this means?" He pointed at the man loading the truck empty. Qin Chi said with a worried face: "I just received a letter from the capital, saying that my wife was so shocked when she learned that I was critically ill earlier. I was so worried that I wanted to return to the capital as soon as possible." Chen Qianhu took advantage of the night light. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Looking at Qin Chi''s backlit face, it was clear and dim. Chen Qianhu immediately decided and said to a guard in brocade clothes behind him: "We have been ordered to protect Lord Qin''s safety. Since Lord Qin has decided to set off overnight, let all the brothers who are resting get up and set off in a quarter of an hour." "Thank you Chen Qianhu for your understanding." Qin Chi said gratefully. Among this group of people, Qin Chi is actually the biggest talker. No matter how much others complain, they can only obey orders. At the same time, Qin Chi ordered people to send the peace letter back to the capital by flying slaves. The day before Fei Nu arrived in Beijing. The news from Taihu Lake reached the capital earlier. In the powerful family of the capital, not only the Qin family and Song Jin were the spies, but other forces also used flying slaves to send messages. When Song Jin learned that Qin Chi''s condition improved, a big stone fell in his heart. Earlier there was news that Qin Chi was critically ill. From time to time, people from the Qin family would come to their door, pretexting that they wanted to visit Song Jin, but in fact they were here to get news. Song Jin said he was not feeling well, so he closed the door and thanked guests. Without knowing whether Qin Chi''s condition was true or not, Song Jin really had no intention of dealing with other people. "Young Master has sent a message via Fei Nu, saying that he will return to Beijing soon." Qin Qixi came over to report with a look on his face. Song Jin also swept away the previous gloom and said with a smile: "I will cook a few more dishes today to tell everyone that the young master will be back soon." "Then let me thank Madam for everyone." This group of people is not only the people on the surface, but also the people secretly protecting this place. Mu Ting folded the clothes and put them in the box, "My boss, can Brother Wei Yuan also add some food?" "Add! You can bring me a hundred taels so that everyone can have a good meal." Song Jin is in a good mood today. Since the fetus was a month old and not feeling well, he bought a maid to take care of her. However, the newly bought maid was not trained and was not easy to use, so she was sent to help in the kitchen. Later, he asked Mu Ting to work beside him. This decision gave Qin Qi some clues. Chapter 312 Yinlong comes to Beijing Chapter 312 Yinlong comes to Beijing Regarding Qin Chi''s matter, Old Man Hong and Qin Qi made the decision to conceal it out of worry because Song Jin was pregnant. However, they ignored whether this was what Song Jin wanted. Qin Chi is their master. The same goes for Song Jin. What they did was actually overstepping their bounds, even if their intentions were good. If Qin Chi''s days are really numbered, in Song Jin''s heart she would rather know it in time than to have it concealed by others with good intentions. At this point, Song Jin realized her own shortcomings. She just couldn''t do it without someone who purely belonged to her, as well as her eyes and ears. Therefore, bringing Mu Ting to her side was a decision she made after careful consideration. Song Jin didn''t have to make the distinction so clearly. That would be disrespectful. But she really didn''t want the same thing to happen again. The only person loyal to Old Man Hong and Qin Qi is Qin Chi. Song Jin didn''t even have the confidence to reprimand him. Surprisingly, before Qin Chi returned to Beijing, Yinlong and her eldest son Xing Shu came to the capital first and found Cuihua Hutong. Song Jin was very surprised, "Aunt Long!" "Little miss." Yinlong also showed a kind smile. Song Jin greeted him with a big belly. Seeing Song Jin, who looked gloomy and haggard, Yinlong hurriedly handed the baggage in his hand to Xing Shulai to pick it up, and hurried over to support Song Jin, "Oh, my little lady, just sit down, just sit down." "Why is Aunt Long here?" Song Jin asked with a sincere smile, his eyes filled with tears, and he was very excited. Yinlong supported Song Jin and walked inside, then pretended to be angry and said: "The little lady is pregnant, so I came here because I was worried about it. But it''s good for you that you didn''t write to tell us that you were pregnant. If A Lun hadn''t written home, Your Aunt Ling and I are still kept in the dark." "It''s a long journey, I won''t bother you." In the letter, Song Jin did not mention her pregnancy. Yinlong''s sudden arrival in Beijing was an unexpected surprise for her. Arrive at the wing in the backyard. Yinlong looked at Song Jin and asked, "Why have you lost weight?" "It''s okay, I just haven''t had much appetite lately." Song Jin asked someone to clean up the guest room for Yinlong. Yinlong frowned again and asked, "Didn''t you find a nanny who is good at protecting the fetus?" "I have Doctor Jing watching over me." Song Jin also looked at Yin Long, his eyes falling on the silver threads in her hair, "How are Aunt Long?" "Well, your Aunt Ling is also very nice. She wants to come with us this time, but she can''t leave for a while." Yinlong told what happened in Huizhou. Finally, Yinlong looked at Song Jin''s belly again, "How many months have it been? Has the house found Po Wen?" "There are still more than two months until the birth. Wen Po''s matter is not urgent." Song Jin''s words aroused Yinlong''s disapproval. In Yinlong''s opinion, a good stable woman must be found quickly, and it is best to pick her up in advance to avoid being unable to find her by accident. When Yinlong learned about Song Jin''s situation and who was in this family, he couldn''t help but feel glad that he came. But she didn''t know what she thought of again, and Yinlong suddenly wiped away tears silently. Song Jin was a little panicked when she saw her, "Aunt Long, why are you crying all of a sudden?" "Little miss, why do you think my uncle is like this? He didn''t arrange for anyone to take care of you when he left the capital. Not to mention a personal maid, he didn''t even have a mother to take care of the backyard." Song Jin''s life now seems to Yinlong to be a great injustice. There is nothing we can do in Qinjiagou. That environment doesn''t allow it. Now Qin Chi is already the number one scholar, and it is said that he has become a high official. Song Jin''s life was worse than in Huizhou, without any decent servants. It can only be said that Yinlong''s expectations were too high, which resulted in the huge gap seen with her own eyes. Now Yinlong was very dissatisfied with Qin Chi. Not to mention a horde of slaves, but a pregnant wife must be closely cared for by two steady and careful people. Yinlong glanced at Mu Ting who was guarding the door. Muting''s scalp was numb from the sight. "Is this maid a new addition?" Yinlong asked. Song Jin nodded. Then, Yinlong shed tears again. Song Jin reassured: "Aunt Long, don''t think too much, I''m fine." "What''s good? Aunt Long''s eyes are not blind." Yinlong felt distressed again when she thought that if she didn''t come, no one would take care of the pregnant Song Jin. Of course, this was a private conversation between the two. On the surface, Yinlong would not complain. Next, Yinlong took over Song Jin''s daily life. At the same time, he consulted Dr. Jing to prepare a meal for Song Jin to nourish the fetus. When he had time, he trained Mu Ting and the newly purchased maid Xiaofu. Song Jin''s mother was from a good background. As a personal maid, Yinlong had been taught the rules of urination by her grandmother, so it was just a matter of course to train the two little maids. With Yinlong taking care of her, Song Jin''s eyebrows relaxed a lot. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! You dont have to worry about anything every day, you can just take care of your baby with peace of mind. After half a month. Song Jin''s complexion improved visibly to the naked eye, and he looked a little plumper. March passed in a blink of an eye. The family has hired two stable wives, and they have even taken them to live in the mansion. One night, everything was silent. When Song Jin was drowsily asleep, she noticed that there seemed to be a figure in the room. Just when she was so frightened that she wanted to call someone. "Madam, did I wake you up?" Qin Chi''s voice was hoarse after staying up late. Song Jin stared blankly at him in his middle coat, as if he was still in a dream and asked, "Am I dreaming?" "Pfft." Qin Chi laughed. He put the clothes he had just taken off on the screen beside him, and then carefully lay down next to Song Jin. Worried that it would crush the fetus in her belly, she could only resist the urge to hold her. His big hand held her little hand, and the fingers clasped tightly. Then Qin Chi comforted him softly: "It''s late at night, keep sleeping. If you have anything to say, we can talk about it when we wake up tomorrow." There should be no interruption at this hour. But Qin Chi wanted to see someone, so he came in quietly. He didn''t expect to wake her up without making any noise, which showed that she slept very lightly. Song Jin was so sleepy that he couldn''t hold his eyes open. When people are sleepy, their brains will be slow. When they learned that the person was Qin Chi, they closed their eyes again and fell asleep quickly. Qin Chi laughed again when he saw this. He had learned on the way that it was not easy for Song Jin to conceive this child. Not only was the morning sickness bad in the early days, but later on my body was suffering from one problem or another. Dr. Jing said it was a normal phenomenon for pregnant women and would not affect the fetus, but it was just a bit annoying. Fortunately Yinlong is here. When Song Jin woke up the next day, his mind was still a little dazed and he thought he had had a dream. I dreamed that Qin Chi was back! Just when she was about to turn over, she suddenly saw Qin Chi sleeping next to her, and her consciousness returned instantly. Is the person actually back? Just at this moment, someone opened the door curtain and came in. When Yinlong came in and saw Qin Chi, he was also stunned. "Shh!" Song Jin put his index finger to his mouth, signaling Yinlong to keep silent. Yinlong understood immediately. Then he carefully helped Song Jin get out of bed. Qin Chi was too tired after traveling all night, so Song Jin was not woken up when he got up. Chapter 313 Return Chapter 313 Return Song Jin was helped to the bathroom by Yinlong. Water is ready inside. After washing up, Yinlong helped Song Jin get dressed, and then sat in front of the dressing table. Let Yinlong comb her hair into a bun. Yinlong knew that Qin Chi was coming home, so she put some thought into giving Song Jin a beautiful woman''s bun. A stunning woman''s face was reflected in the mirror. When a person is pregnant, even if her color is reduced, her smile is still pure and charming. Yinlong joked in a low voice: "Young lady, it''s better to hide her appearance. If you go out like this, I don''t know how much trouble you will cause." "Aunt Long, please stop teasing me." Song Jin pursed her lips and smiled softly. Ever since she found out she was pregnant, she couldn''t often wear ugly makeup, so she rarely showed her face in front of outsiders. I lived in seclusion for most of the year. It''s just that she has been alone for a long time, and it is an emotionally sensitive period of pregnancy. Song Jin''s state is getting worse day by day. The situation improved after Yinlong came. After Song Jin''s hair was combed, she heard movement on the other side of the screen. It was the sound of Qin Chi getting out of bed. Yinlong and Song Jin looked at each other. Then Yinlong went out with a knowing smile. Sure enough, after a while, Qin Chi put on his clothes and turned around from the screen. At a glance, he saw Song Jin sitting quietly in front of the dressing table, looking like a lady. At this moment, Song Jin felt an inexplicable grievance in his heart. Perhaps it was due to the influence of pregnancy, or perhaps she suddenly wanted to be pretentious. There was mist in her eyes like autumn water, and just this look made Qin Chi feel a pain in his heart. Several people strode forward and hugged the person in their arms. Qin Chi patted Song Jin''s back back and forth with his big hand, "My wife, I forgive my husband this time. It''s because I didn''t think carefully and shocked you." At that time, he decided to pretend to be ill and was determined to find the person who poisoned him, but he forgot that Song Jin, who was far away in the capital, might receive wrong news. Looking back now, Qin Chi wished he could slap himself in the face. Whatever the reason, it was ultimately his fault. Song Jin discovered from Qin Chi''s few words that he was blaming himself. Seeing her raising her head and looking at him, shedding silent tears, Qin Chi felt as if something was tugging at his heart, and subconsciously took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears. Unexpectedly, the more tears he wiped, the more he wiped his eyes. He was at a loss and even the hand holding the handkerchief was shaking slightly. After a long time, Song Jin chuckled and said, "Are you afraid, sir?" "If you are afraid, please forgive me." When Qin Chi saw Song Jin shed tears, he had never been so panicked for a moment. You must know that the person in his impression was a gentle and gentle person on the surface, but in fact he had a very cold temperament. outside the house. Yinlong stood guard at the door. Block Mu Ting, Xiao Fu, and Qin Qi from the door. It was okay for Qin Qi to know that Qin Chi came back in the middle of the night, but Mu Ting and Xiao Fu didn''t know anything. Mu Ting asked in surprise: "Ms. Yin, don''t you need someone to wait on my boss today? Usually at this time, my boss is already up." "Yes, slave, slave, what should I do?" Xiao Fu looked uneasy. The owner was dissatisfied with her and made her always worry that she would be sent back to the dental clinic. Song Jin didn''t buy Xiaofu. Qin Qi bought it from the dental shop. According to Song Jin''s request, he bought a little maid who talks little but works hard. People are hard-working and talk little, but their brains are lacking. She usually does whatever Song Jin tells her to do. She becomes confused when no one tells her. After a few days, she can''t even recognize her duties. Her temper is too low and she has low self-esteem, which is unpleasant. Song Jinzheng was pregnant and had no energy to train people, so he sent people to work in the kitchen. After Yinlong''s training recently, he has changed a lot. At least he doesn''t know what to do and can ask. "No need today, you all can go down." Yinlong stood here just because he didn''t want them to go in and disturb the couple, "By the way, I''ve prepared breakfast for the masters." Hearing this, Mu Ting''s eyes widened in shock. Qin Qi''s reaction was unusual. Only Xiao Fu was confused and could understand the words. She quickly responded and went to the kitchen to give instructions. There were a few more people in the house today, and the atmosphere was completely different. The front yard was much more lively. Lao Huo told Old Man Hong what happened at the Taihu disaster relief operation, and he spoke vividly. Even Madam Pan and Chef Feng were attracted. While working, I listened, and from time to time I would utter a few exclamations to match. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Lao Li Tou sat aside and munched on the big bun, "I said Lao Huo, why are you showing off so early in the morning? There are no pretty girls to listen to your nonsense, so saliva is worthless, right?" "Go, I''m happy to." Lao Huo replied with a smile. Old Li Tou didn''t know what he said, so Feng Kitchen and Mrs. Pan rolled their eyes. Qin Ba also stretched out at this time. The look on his face showed that he had just woken up. "Uncles, you got up so early. Have you had enough sleep?" "Your body is weak." Old Li Tou looked at Qin Ba, "Not as good as us." "That''s right." Lao Huo agreed. Qin Ba straightened his back immediately and did not let them lead them into the ditch at all. He said with a proud face: "Oh, I asked Doctor Jing. He said that as people get older, the time for sleeping will become shorter and shorter. I Im tired, its not that Im inferior to my uncles, its because Im young. Suddenly there was silence in front of the court. Old Li and Old Huo looked at this silly guy with a bad look on his face, and even Old Hong, who was usually taciturn, glanced at Qin Ba several times subconsciously. The atmosphere at this moment is a bit strange. Qin Ba finally realized something was wrong and said with a dry smile: "Ha, ha, ha, I''ll go to the kitchen to see if there''s anything to eat. Uncles can help themselves." Without saying this, he slipped into the kitchen. Lao Litou smiled and scolded: "This kid can escape very fast." "Usually, I look smart, but my temper is quite out-of-touch. I really don''t know how he was trained before. If you look at the other secret guards, their temperament is completely different from his." Lao Huo thought about it now. funny. What are the secret guards like? Just refer to Old Man Hong and you will know that silence is the basic principle. Old Man Hong said expressionlessly: "Those guys who were arranged to be with the young master earlier have become lax. When will we bring them back to the camp to train again?" Old Li Tou and Old Huo pretended not to hear. The two of them lowered their heads and ate the buns in tacit understanding. Then there was a mouthful of steamed buns, and then a mouthful of millet porridge, which tasted delicious. Old Man Hong sneered, "Two cowards." Aren''t you just worried about offending the secret guards around the young master? It''s a pity that those guys are no longer under his control now. Otherwise, he will definitely throw everyone back. The first person to be sent back must be Qin Ba. This time. Qin Chi helped Song Jin out to eat together. The ends of Song Jin''s eyes were red, and she had obviously cried earlier. Qin Chi was sitting beside her upright. Even if they don''t speak, occasionally raising their eyes to look at each other inadvertently will fill the surroundings with a sweet and greasy atmosphere. Chapter 314 Isn’t this a shameful thing to say? Chapter 314: Isnt this a shame? After breakfast with my wife. Qin Chi did not change into official uniform and go to the Yamen. Song Jin raised his eyelids and asked, "Don''t you need to go to the Yamen, sir?" "I just came back from the disaster relief work. Your Majesty sent a message to let us rest for a few days." Qin Chi said this, but there was something hidden in his tone. "It''s only a few days before the fifteenth day of the court meeting. I''ll be at home with you these days. Accompany my wife. "Isn''t this a shameful thing to say?" Song Jin vaguely knew that there was going to be trouble. Qin Chi leaned into Song Jin''s ear and whispered about the disaster relief, including the Ten Thousand People''s Umbrella and the letter of thanksgiving, "We are not a diligent emperor. It''s good to be able to handle three or five days of government affairs a month. He should know this time Only because of the letter of thanksgiving will I be allowed to rest until the day of the big meeting. This is a feat given to Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. It will definitely be recorded in the history books in the future. For example, at a court meeting on a certain day in a certain month of a certain year, Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty was loved by all the people and jointly presented a silk letter of thanksgiving. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty paid special attention to these posthumous names in his later years. In fact, it is because officials of the fifth rank are generally not qualified to enter the palace to see the emperor. The officials returning from the disaster relief work must either wait for the emperor''s summons, or wait for the imperial meeting on the 15th day of each month, or submit the post-disaster relief memorial to the cabinet first, and the cabinet ministers will discuss it and send it to the Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty before discussing their merits. Reward and so on. Qin Chi returned from disaster relief. Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty must know. Otherwise, there would be no oral instructions for him to go home and rest first. Qin Chi himself just wanted to rest. He couldn''t eat well or sleep well during the disaster relief work. He also got sick during the relief work, and he had to drive all night when he came back. His body was so beaten that he couldn''t bear it. Song Jin held his hand and said, "Let Dr. Jing nurse you back to health. Once you are well, you can go to court." "good." Qin Chi''s eyebrows brightened. Dr. Jing came very quickly. His apprentice''s medical skills are comparable to those of a master, but in terms of experience, he is not as good as Dr. Jing. In other words, everyone trusts Dr. Jing''s own medical skills more than his apprentice. then. Qin Chi was recuperating at home. There have been rumors outside that the disaster relief team returned to Beijing in the middle of the night. There were so many people traveling together that the news could not be concealed. Even Mr. Qin, the chief officer of the disaster relief, received the news that his wife had fetal force when he was returning, causing the whole team to travel day and night. Some people joked that several horses died in the process. Others said that most of the soldiers were tired and sick. Every trivial matter is brought out as gossip. When the couple heard this at home, Song Jin couldn''t stop laughing, "Is this true?" "Can this be false?" Qin Chi raised his eyebrows. Song Jin''s cheeks heated up slightly, "I thought it was an exaggeration. You also know that most of the rumors are fabricated." Qin Chi was grinding the ink, but his ink eyes were shining brightly, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, "Are you shy, madam?" "Oh." Song Jin suddenly came to his senses. After thinking about something clearly, the embarrassment suddenly disappeared. Suddenly she realized that this time Qin Chi came back, her reaction was indeed a bit too big. So big that she didn''t look like herself? Song Jin raised her eyes to meet Qin Chi''s eyes, then lowered her head as if to avoid it, with a slight smile on her lips, and her sitting posture was gentle and gentle, as if the shyness on her face just now was Qin Chi''s illusion. This made Qin Chi feel troubled. Was he being mean-mouthed just now? After being married for many years, he rarely saw Song Jin show the delicate look that a woman should have. After finally getting it, I went back all of a sudden. Qin Chi put down the ink note and took some time to calm down and said: "These rumors are usually less true and more false, but this time they are not true. In order to return to Beijing early to see my wife, I did set off overnight. It said that several horses were killed. Its just a lie, obviously only one died. Song Jin stared at him with a smile in his eyes. Wait for him to continue. Qin Chi knew that her attention had returned to him, and he immediately felt relieved physically and mentally, "The fact that most of the soldiers were sick is even more exaggerated. As far as I know, there are only two or three infected with wind and cold, and Dr. Xiao Jing went to see them. Itll be fine in a few days. Song Jin narrowed her eyes and pursed her lips, smiling softly. It''s not just the two who are talking about the rumors outside. Qin Ba and the others in the front yard were also talking about this. Anyone who pays attention to Qin Chi also knows it, such as Yuanwai Lang and the chief of the Yu Heng Division of the Ministry of Industry. They had met Song Jin. When they heard this rumor again, while others believed it completely, they were still doubtful. "Did Mr. Qin really kill several horses and most of his entourage because of his wife?" One of the principals questioned. Another official said: "This is what is said outside. I don''t believe it. His wife is not beautiful, and she can only be called pretty. How could someone like Mr. Qin..." "Shut up. Didn''t you meet last time? They have a very good relationship as a couple." Yuan Wailang interrupted their speculations. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "You believe it even if we don''t believe it." The two principals laughed. Yuan Wailang curled his lips, "If you want to know whether it''s true or not, just go to Cuihua Hutong and take a look." "I haven''t seen Mrs. Qin in the past." This is exactly the reason. If a male guest comes to the door, the female family members will usually avoid it. The last time they could see each other, they asked each other to go to the Yamen to deliver food to her husband. The three of them, as lower officials, said this, and when it was almost time to go to the Yamen, they still agreed to pay a visit with appropriate etiquette. Qin Chi came out to meet the guests in the hall. When several people saw Qin Chi, they complimented him again. Qin Chi wanted to stay with them for dinner, but the three refused. One person sent a gift in return, and Qin Chi sent the three of them to the door. Qin Chi, who was standing at the door and about to turn around and go back to the house, suddenly saw Dong Xingde opposite his home. When Dong Xingde looked at Qin Chi, his face was still expressionless, as if someone owed him something. Qin Chi disagreed and raised his hand to say hello, "What a coincidence, Master Dong. Do you want to come to my house for a drink? I have several jars of highland barley wine in my collection." Such an invitation came from his mouth. In his mind, Dong Xingde would not agree. While he was waiting for Dong Xingde to refuse. Unexpectedly, Dong Xingde, who was about to enter the Dong family, turned around and walked towards the Qin family. Qin Chi took a breath of surprise and turned sideways to invite people into the room. Dong Xingde was also the number one scholar, but after four years of procrastination, he was still writing at the Hanlin Academy. Qin Chi is now a doctor. It is said that his return from disaster relief has been successfully completed. He has become famous in Taihu Lake. He will be promoted again soon. Dong Xingde cannot deny that he is envious. Since the other party invited him to drink. What''s wrong with that? He was aloof in the past few years, but what happened? Just stay in your original position as an idler. Dong Xingde passed Qin Chi, walked a few steps and looked back, only to find that Qin Chi was still in a daze. He raised his lips proudly, "You think I won''t accept it, right? If you don''t drink cheap food and wine, you''d be a fool, huh." " He shook his head and walked in more like a master than Qin Chi. Qin Chi didn''t know whether to laugh or cry, and quickly followed him. Chapter 315 Daichokai Chapter 315 The Great Court Meeting Another visitor came to the house. The kitchen prepared a few more dishes to go with the wine. Qin Ba went to the warehouse and took out a jar of highland barley wine. Qin Chi personally poured a bowl of wine for Dong Xingde, "The highland barley wine from Tianyoude Winery is said to be brewed with water from ancient wells. A sip of it is fragrant, mellow, sweet and refreshing, and it has a really long aftertaste." "Heh, you said it before you even drank?" Dong Xingde''s mouth is a bit poisonous. Qin Chi paused even as he poured the wine, "Is it okay if I drank it before?" Dong Xingde didn''t answer this. I just picked up the wine and took a sip, then took another sip and savored it carefully. It had the taste that Qin Chi said. After a few bowls of wine, Dong Xingde got a little excited and said, "Qin Qi''an, to be honest, I really envy you." Qin Chi asked: "Why do you envy me?" "I envy you for your officialdom." Dong Xingde''s voice was a little heavy. "You have gone so smoothly. I have been working for more than four years, but I am still sitting on the bench. There is almost no hope." "Are you ambitious?" Qin Chi suddenly asked, "Have you ever carefully gone to camp? Or are you just sitting in your original position, waiting for the pie to fall from the sky?" Dong Xingde''s face froze. Qin Chi''s tone was calm, neither impatient nor impatient, "I don''t know much about Brother Dong''s years in the Hanlin Academy, but I know that if you want to move forward, you not only need an opportunity, but you also need to have the will." "That heart?" Dong Xingde thinks he has that intention. But no one gave him a chance to climb up! Qin Chi dare not say that he has read countless people. Qin Chi knew very well what Dong Xingde''s mentality was. Isn''t it just that talent is not appreciated? If you feel that you have won the top prize, you will inevitably show some aloofness when getting along with others. There are also some shortcomings in the matter of human relations. But people do have talents and learning. After serving as an official in the court for four years, it is difficult to say whether he can still retain his bottom line and original intention. If he continues to be depressed like this, it is difficult to say. When they met today, Qin Chi discovered that Dong Xingde''s mentality was unstable. Qin Chi thought of the kindness shown by the other party when he first arrived at the Hanlin Academy, so he didn''t mind mentioning a few words: "Scholars like to be noble, but people who get along with you may not like them. Frankly speaking, I just said When I arrived at the Hanlin Academy, I heard other people commenting on Mr. Dong, saying that you are not easy to get along with. " He picked up the wine jar and poured another cup for Dong Xingde. "I haven''t been with you for a long time. I know that you have a bad temper, but you are very principled in your actions." Qin Chi brought back Dong Xingde''s dark expression with one sentence. Dong Xingde knows what outsiders say about him, but that doesn''t mean he likes to be said to his face. Qin Chi said calmly: "I regard you as a friend, and I have a heart-to-heart talk with you today. As the saying goes, cultivating one''s self, harmonizing one''s family, governing the country, and bringing peace to the world, self-cultivation must first reflect on it. The way of introspection is like tea in a pot, removing the turbidity. Clear, get rid of disease and become healthy. Dong Xingde had a dark look on his face. He just said something to ask him to go back and reflect? If he had known how to reflect in these years, would he still be depressed and frustrated today? "Look at your face. You don''t like it when I mention self-reflection. You think you have a good temper, don''t you? It''s their fault that others don''t give you a chance, and you don''t have the slightest fault on your own?" Qin Chi pulled up a chair and sat next to Dong Xingde. He slapped Dong Xingde on the shoulder. The intensity is not small. Qin Chi sneered and said: "Stop your anger, I suggest you look in the mirror more often and see if you have any magnanimity around you now that you should have. The rules you have learned have not trapped others. On the contrary, they have He trapped himself in it strictly." Dong Xingde''s eyes suddenly widened. This stepped directly on his sore spot. He was stunned for a long time, and finally stood up, smelling of alcohol, and bowed deeply to Qin Chi, "Thank you, Mr. Qin, for your advice today." "I didn''t mention anything." Qin Chi refused to admit it and pulled him to sit down again, "I can''t stay in the Hanlin Academy any longer, so I will try my best to find a job in the Ministry of Punishment or Dali Temple." Dong Xingde has such a bad temper. Xingbu and Dali Temple are indeed good places to visit. Once you go there, it''s not unusual for others to keep a straight face. Qin Chi didn''t know that what he said today would change the rest of Dong Xingde''s life and make him remember it for a lifetime. Whenever he encounters a setback, he will recall what Qin Chi said today, and then start to reflect. As a result, the number one scholar who was once ridiculed got out of the predicament, and his official career became bigger and bigger. Besides, Qin Chi is resting at home for a few days. Finally arrived at the Great Court Meeting. Qin Chi got up early and tidied himself up. Song Jin asked the kitchen to prepare breakfast early. After breakfast, Qin Chi took the memorial and the so-called letter of thanks to go out. "Take this with you." Song Jin stuffed a few pieces of peach pastry into a purse and put it in Qin Chi''s hand. "I''m afraid it''s not going to be peaceful today. I may not be able to go to court at noon." Qin Chi wanted to say that if he brought this with him, he might not be able to eat it in the main hall. However, he would accept the lady''s wishes. Qin Chi hung the pouch containing peach cakes on his waist. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! When he came to the palace and met his officials, he always smelled the fragrance of peach cakes. They did not suspect that Qin Chi had peach cakes on him, but they suspected that he had eaten peach cakes this morning. It is a serious time to go to court, so no one will say much. Everyone''s attention was not on the so-called peach cake fragrance, but on the small volume of silk book Qin Chi brought. Everyone who is well informed knows this. This silk book was written by the people of Taihu to thank Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. Xia Wei stood in front, turned around and glanced at Qin Chi. Yuan Shangshu, Yang Gelao and others also looked back at Qin Chi one by one. They had high positions and positions listed in the main hall, which were much higher than Qin Chi''s. And they turned back. Naturally, everyone in front of Qin Chi turned around and glanced at Qin Chi. So, the court meeting has not started yet. Qin Chi attracted all the attention, making his eyelids jump. "Go to court!" "The Emperor has arrived!" Following the eunuch''s shrill voice, Emperor Mingcheng slowly stepped into the throne, his dragon robe golden and majestic. The courtiers, dressed in official robes, knelt down and shouted long live. After Emperor Ming Cheng said he was relieved, the courtiers stood up and retreated to their respective positions to stand solemnly. The **** in charge of the ceremony loudly said: "If there is something to do, we will start to report, if there is nothing to do, we will leave the court!" Waited for quite a while. No minister came forward. Emperor Ming Cheng looked at Qin Chi with a vague look. Qin Chi understood the idea, stepped forward, bowed his head and saluted, and said in a straight tone: "Your Majesty, the humble minister Qin Qi''an was ordered to provide disaster relief. Fortunately, he did not disgrace his mission. The people are grateful for God''s grace and specially presented a silk book to express their sincerity." "Okay, okay, bring it up!" Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty was very happy. Qin Chi raised the silk book above his head. The imperial **** came over, took the silk book with both hands, and then bowed and presented the silk book to Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. At the instruction of Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty, two eunuchs slowly opened the silk book. After careful review, Emperor Mingcheng showed a satisfied smile on his face, "Qin Aiqing, you did a good job on this errand! Very good!" Qin Chi said modestly: "It is the duty of a humble minister to share your Majesty''s worries." "It''s a matter of one''s duty. If everyone thinks like you do, why should I, the Great Xia Dynasty, be unhappy?" Emperor Ming Cheng sighed with a smile. It would be better not to say this. Qin Chi''s mouth twitched. At this moment, he had reasonable suspicion that Emperor Ming Cheng wanted to punish him. Are you so eager to put him on the fire? PS: Please vote~ Chapter 316 The Yuan and Yang families confront each other Chapter 316 The Yuan and Yang families confront each other Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty said with emotion that he was stepping on the faces of his ministers. Qin Chi didn''t need to raise his head to feel the eyes of everyone on him. The young officials in the hall may not have understood the intention behind Qin Chi''s move today, but some veterans looked at Qin Chi with unintelligible eyes. Sometimes they can''t help but wonder whether there is a soul similar to theirs under Qin Chi''s young skin. He has long been well versed in the ways of officialdom and is born to be a good candidate for officialdom. It was so powerful that they were a little afraid. You must know that at Qin Chi''s age, they are not as comprehensive as him. They have made many achievements and know how to flatter Emperor Ming Cheng, mainly because they hit the point. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty was very pleased with it at first glance. He said a few words to them, probably because he disliked them for not being able to do anything. Then Qin Chi handed over two more memorials. The **** took the memorial and presented it. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty first opened what Qin Chi had written. The content was probably about disaster relief matters and asking for credit from fellow officials. His eyes were full of approval, and when he finished reading, he went to flip through another memorial. This memorial belongs to Magistrate Yang. As a result, Emperor Mingcheng''s face grew darker the more he looked at it. It''s that disappointing feeling again. This reminded Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty that last year, on the day Qin Chi won the first prize, when he was happy, this man suddenly sued the Yuan family. Emperor Ming Cheng originally wanted to reward him based on his merits, but suddenly he didn''t want to reward him so quickly. Of course, the reward is just postponed, not withheld. A silk book in which people express their gratitude to Emperor Dai Ming for his grace is not only the voice of tens of thousands of people, but also a testament to Qin Chi''s hard work. Moreover, Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty appointed Qin Chi to provide disaster relief last year, and he said in front of all civil and military officials that he would discuss merit and reward him. If he regrets it now, he will inevitably be criticized. At this moment, the main hall was extremely solemn. Qin Chi suddenly knelt in front of the palace, his voice full of grief, anger and pleading: "Your Majesty, the Yuan family has repeatedly harmed Wei Chen. I hope you can make the decision for Wei Chen and give Wei Chen justice." boom! The whole hall fell silent for an instant. There was something wrong with the memorial just now, and they saw it. I didn''t expect what would happen. Now that Qin Chi said this, it was obvious that the booklet was from the Yuan family. Qin Chi took out the testimony of the poisoning case again: "Wei Chen almost couldn''t come back this time. Fortunately, Magistrate Yang caught the murderer clearly and arrested him. The murderer was appointed by the Yuan family. This is the testimony of the murderer. Please read it. " "Send it up." Emperor Mingcheng said. The imperial **** went to take it again and forwarded it to Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty for review. There was silence in the hall at this moment, and you could hear a needle drop. Yuan Shangshu hurriedly stood up and defended: "Qin Qi''an''s words are purely false accusations! I am upright and not afraid of shadows. I hope your Majesty will learn from it!" Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty threw the evidence at Yuan Shangshu. Yuan Shangshu hurriedly knelt down, picked up the evidence and flipped through it, "Slander! This is pure slander. It was the Yang family who plotted against the minister. Your Majesty, it must be the Yang family who wanted to strike first and kill the minister to cover up his family''s crimes." "Nonsense! Old thief Yuan can''t even hope to get away with it. The Yuan family is domineering and arbitrary. They have secretly murdered Mr. Qin once or twice. Do you think that if you hide it well, no one will know?" Yang Ge angrily pointed at Yuan Shangshu, with a look of sorrow on his face and passionate words, "Yuan, the facts are in front of you, how can you be allowed to get away with it?! I see that you have nothing to say, so I want to divert your attention and dirty things." It was extremely shameless to pour water on the Yang familys head. Then, Yang Gelao saluted Emperor Mingcheng again and said in defense: "Your Majesty, I have always loved talents, and particularly admired Qin Qi''an''s talent and learning. Last year, the Yuan family tried to kill him, so they couldn''t help but pull him. How could you plot to kill him while he was going to relieve the disaster? This is pure nonsense. Not to mention that no one here today would believe it. If it were spread outside, not many children would understand it. " There is quite a bit of truth to that. Most of the courtiers didn''t believe it either. Some people have long felt that Yuan Shangshu''s frame-up was really clumsy. However, they were wrong! Yuan Shangshu did not panic at all. He took out a memorial from his body and raised it above his head. He said sternly: "Today, I am suing Yang Lingyu, the young minister of Dali Temple. When he was the magistrate of Huizhou Prefecture, he perverted the law for personal gain and disregarded human life. He acted recklessly and colluded with the squire Zeng family to murder. Hundreds of lives were lost to the Song family. All the relatives and friends of the Song family who went to inquire afterwards were either dead or injured, and dozens of lives were involved..." Yuan Shangshu''s voice echoed in the hall. Every word was like a sharp blade, slashing at Yang Lingyu. Qin Chi recognized Yuan Shangshu''s words and modified the description of the case, which suddenly sounded horrifying. Obviously missing. He would die if he said it. Most of the so-called relatives and friends are actually servants of the arrangement. Dozens of cases, more than thirty to be specific. The atmosphere in the palace was solemn and the officials were silent. There was only the sound of the Yang and Yuan factions arguing, and neither one wanted to let the other go. "Shut up!" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Emperor Mingcheng frowned, and for a moment, the entire hall fell into a dead silence. He looked at Yang Lingyu who was kneeling below, "Yang Shaoqing, can you plead guilty?" "Your Majesty, I am wronged." Yang Lingyu kowtowed and complained, "I worked conscientiously during my tenure as the magistrate of Huizhou and never dared to make any mistakes..." "Yang Shaoqing!" Yuan Shangshu bit Yang Lingyu to death and refused to let him go, "Who in the whole Huizhou Prefecture doesn''t know that the Song family was the one who personally ordered the official documents to be confiscated and convicted." Immediately, Yuan Shangshu glanced at Qin Chi with a sad look, "You must have heard that Mr. Qin came from Huizhou Prefecture." "It''s true. Everyone in Huizhou Prefecture knows that the Song family ransacked their homes and was imprisoned. We can tell the truth by sending someone to inquire." Qin Chi did not shy away from this matter. After a pause, he continued: "Song''s medicinal materials have always been of high quality and fair prices, benefiting countless people in Huizhou. When the incident happened, the prices of medicinal materials on the local market were turbulent for a long time. Among them, there are several medicinal materials unique to the Song family that are even more valuable than gold, and a few of them are still valuable but not commercially available. A trace of panic flashed in Yang Lingyu''s eyes. Yang Gelao frowned, but still managed to remain calm. "Wow, this is too cruel. Hundreds of people died. The Yang family wants to cover the sky with one hand." Ning Guogong suddenly interrupted. "Mr. Ning, please be careful what you say." Mr. Yang Ge held back his anger and glared at him. Ning Guogong does not support the Yang family, nor does he support the Yuan family. In the eyes of others, he is just a mean-mouthed fool. When everyone was avoiding him, he dared to speak out. Ning Guogong seemed to recall: "No wonder there was a time a few years ago when the old housekeeper at home said that the medicinal materials in Huizhou were very expensive." Some of the generals also ridiculed, "When it comes to ruthlessness, it''s the men of letters. We generals stain our hands with blood to defend our country and go into battle to kill the enemy. We, the men of letters, can take hundreds of lives with just a few wrong thoughts. We feel ashamed." No. If there is a war in the future, just let the civil servants take the vanguard, and they will be able to kill without blood. " "Ha, cough." Some people couldn''t hold back their laughter and had to cough to cover it up. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty looked at Yuan Shangshu again, "Yang Lingyu doesn''t admit it, does Yuan Aiqing have any evidence?" "have!" Yuan Shangshu came prepared today. Chapter 317 Another two-level promotion Chapter 317: Another two-level promotion When the evidence was presented, Emperor Mingcheng saw it and asked other ministers to argue the truth and falsehood. "Dear ladies, come and take a look at the authenticity of these official documents." Emperor Mingcheng handed the evidence to the **** on the side. The **** took it down again and showed it to the cabinet ministers for inspection. The official seal on it was not only provided by the Huizhou Prefecture, but also by the northwest side, which confirmed that Yang Lingyu had framed the Song family, and that it was the Zeng family who actually adulterated the medicinal materials. Yang Lingyu bent the law for personal gain and sought wealth and death. As a result, the whereabouts of the Song family are still unknown. It is suspected that he has been silenced. The evidence of guilt is here, and Yang Lingyu cannot be cleared. Not only Yang Lingyu looked pale, but also Mr. Yang Ge looked bad. What happened today was beyond the Yang family''s expectation. The Yuan family actually sent people to Huizhou to investigate Yang Lingyu and found evidence. Even Mr. Yang Ge did not expect that his nephew would do such a stupid thing and even fall into such big trouble. The sky net is vast, sparse but not leaking. The cabinet ministers were silent. The person who has made the final decision so far in the court meeting is Emperor Ming Cheng. Emperor Mingcheng stood up slowly, glanced at everyone with his majestic eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Yang Lingyu was dismissed from his post and put into the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. The Ministry of Punishment will investigate the case. In addition, the Yuan family poisoned Qin Qi''an, and I will find out the truth on my own. " Immediately, Emperor Ming Cheng looked back and forth between Yang Ge Lao and Yuan Shangshu like a knife. The tension at the court meeting reached its peak. The two ministers are fighting, and now it seems that both sides are losing. Who has the greater advantage in the end is unknown. Emperor Ming Cheng said coldly: "Yang Zhengkai is suspended from his post and banned from his residence until the truth is found out before he is punished." As for Yuan Shangshu? Similar to Mr. Yang Ge, he also had to go back to his hometown and be banned from work, but there was no such thing as suspension. Emperor Ming Cheng was so angry that he threw up his sleeves and left. Just as he turned around and walked a few steps, he suddenly turned back and announced: "Qin Qi''an has made great contributions to disaster relief and has been promoted to the rank of Shaoqing of Dali Temple. He will take office at a later date after the poisoning case is investigated." Is this to let Qin Chi avoid suspicion first? Someone would like to ask, Your Majesty, you did not hand over the case to Dali Temple, how can you avoid any suspicion? But smart people speculated that Emperor Ming Cheng might leave the investigation of the poisoning of Qin Chi to Dali Temple. Emperor Ming Cheng left surrounded by his chamberlains. The ministers of the court knelt on the ground and shouted to see off His Majesty. When Emperor Ming Cheng disappeared, all the ministers stood up one after another. Yang Lingyu asked the imperial guards to **** him to Xingbu. He didn''t even say a word of injustice, but looked at Mr. Yang Ge. Yang Gelao pursed his lips and nodded, with comfort in his eyes. Yang Lingyu''s panicked heart calmed down a little. The evidence submitted by Yuan Shangshu needs to be reviewed according to the normal process. Naturally, we have to contact Huizhou Prefecture and Northwest, and it will take half a year for the Ministry of Punishment to verify it. Since it is a sentence. Execution also takes a while. Then there will be more room for maneuver. "Oh, how long has it been since Yuan Shangshu was banned last time?" Ning Guogong came to Yuan Shangshu with a smile and made sarcastic remarks. This person just made a sound to harm the Yang family. Some people thought he was on the side of the Yuan family. But just after the dynasty ended, he caught Yuan Shangshu and satirized him again? Yuan Shangshu glared at Ning Guogong angrily, and then angrily tossed his sleeves and left. The other officials subconsciously made way for him, or some people instinctively stayed away from him. Old Yang Ge also looked bad. He left without saying a word, and no one came up to talk to him. Even people from their faction must avoid suspicion at this time. On the contrary, Qin Chi, who was kneeling in front of the palace, stood up slowly, patted the hem of his clothes, and gave Ning Guogong a funny look. Ning Guogong winked at him and said, "Boy, I''m a little hungry." After speaking, he pointed at Qin Chi''s waist. Qin Chi lowered his head and saw that it was the bulging purse. He untied it with a smile and handed it to Ning Guogong. Ning Guogong took it and smelled it first, "It is indeed my favorite peach cake." Then he opened it, took out a piece and put it in his mouth. The morning ended earlier than expected today. According to Qin Chi''s prediction, the court would not be able to disperse at noon at least. Emperor Ming Cheng did not act according to the rules and threw up his sleeves and left in the middle of the court meeting. One old man and one young man left the hall one after the other. We left the palace together again. When Ning Guogong left the palace, he finished the peach cake in his hand and stuffed the empty purse back into Qin Chi''s hand, "Your Majesty wants to give you a day off to let you have a good rest, so go and have a good rest. I heard You didn''t go back to your hometown to worship your ancestors last year, so you should take this opportunity to go back so that you won''t be too busy in the future and find a suitable time." "This is exactly what I mean." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi did have this idea in his heart. When you get back, you can submit a note of leave to your boss, and you can leave Beijing once it is approved. The bigger the job of a Beijing official, the harder it is to take a long vacation. Usually, he has to resign before returning to his hometown. Qin Chi went home unhurriedly. What happened in the imperial court today gradually spread among the upper-class forces in the capital. The Yuan and Yang families faced off. The tit-for-tat confrontation in the main hall is to kill the other party. Yang Lingyu, the former Shaoqing of Dali Temple, was dismissed from his post and investigated. Mr. Yang Ge was ordered to be suspended from his post and sent home to be banned. Yuan Shangshu also returned home and was banned. Among the three, Yuan Shangshu was currently punished the least. It can only be said that the evidence submitted for the poisoning of Qin Chi was only investigated by the county magistrate of one county. Emperor Ming Cheng still needs to send someone to review it. Some people are guessing who Emperor Ming Cheng will let take over the case? It was unknown for a while. However, the person caught between the two families was Qin Qi''an. No matter how weird you think. Don''t say it''s just another coincidence. Where the **** do so many coincidences come from? Xia Wei, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, talked to his confidants, "Qin Qi''an is borrowing his strength." "Didn''t he have good relations with the Yang family at first?" A confidant asked in confusion. Xia Wei chuckled, "How can we never visit the Yang family if we are really good friends? I heard that Mr. Yang Ge used his power to suppress others and forced Qin Qi''an to file a petition on the day he won the top prize." "Qin Qi''an didn''t suffer from this either." "Wrong, I suffered a big loss." Xia Wei knew Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty, so he made this assertion, "If something like this happens on the day when His Majesty is happy, how will the history books be written in the future? The number one scholar who wrote three yuan and six poems, after His Majesty appointed him as the number one scholar, will be the number one scholar in the future." Sue someone in the palace? Your Majesty wouldn''t want to see this. This is equivalent to a piece of porcelain that should be perfect, but suddenly there is a scratch. " Most infuriating. This happened once, but it happened a second time today. No wonder His Majesty was so angry that he threw up his sleeves and left. Xia Wei smiled and said, "It was Qin Qi''an who revealed this matter. He chose the wrong time." The confidant thought about it carefully, but still didn''t fully understand it, "I don''t quite understand." "It''s normal not to understand." Xia Wei did not continue to say, "If you can see through it, you will no longer be my subordinates, but you can stand on top of me. On the contrary, it seems that Qin Qi''an is not at a loss now." But no, its not a loss. He also got a young minister from Dali Temple, who was in the fourth rank. Scored twice and was promoted two levels. (End of chapter) Chapter 318 grant leave Chapter 318 Giving Leave Qin Chi first went to the Ministry of Industry and asked Wang Shilang to hand over the work. From now on, he will no longer be the doctor of the Ministry of Industry. Wang Shilang did not embarrass him. The handover was completed smoothly. Qin Chi said goodbye to Yu Hengsi''s Yuanwai Lang and chief executive, and then transferred to the Hanlin Academy. The officials of the Hanlin Academy had become somewhat accustomed to hearing that Qin Chi had been promoted again. When they saw Qin Chi''s appearance, they all came forward to say congratulations. Qin Chi responded one by one. I sat down at my desk, polished my ink stick, and wrote a note asking for leave. He has not yet taken up his post at Dali Temple, so he can save himself the trouble of asking for leave, but here at the Hanlin Academy he is clearly holding an official position. Therefore, what I want to take this time is a vacation, and the necessary procedures need to be completed. There were strict grammatical rules for officials in the Daxia Dynasty to ask for leave. It mainly includes menstrual leave, personal leave, sick leave, granted leave and unpaid leave, etc. Menstrual holidays are statutory rest days for officials. Personal leave is leave required for personal matters, including visiting relatives, worshiping ancestors, relocating, attending to the bereavement of biological parents, seeing off old relatives, seeing off young children, and getting married. Except for Ding You, it is stipulated to be one month. Sick leave is a leave taken by an official who is unable to attend court or work due to illness, and generally shall not exceed three months. When members of the royal family and ministers pass away, all officials can enjoy the benefits of a leave of absence from the court, that is, a leave of absence. The time is divided according to the rank of the deceased. For example, queens and princes have three days of rest, while princesses and princes have one day of rest. The above types of holidays all have expressly stipulated durations. Only giving leave is different. Granting leave is a gift and consideration from the emperor to officials. There is no specific definition of the number of days of leave. It all depends on the emperor''s personal mood. This is what Duke Ning Guo meant to remind Qin Chi. After Qin Chi finished writing, he took the leave request note to ask for Yan Xianqing. Yan Xianqing stood up immediately when he saw Qin Chi and said with a smile: "Pray for peace, congratulations on being promoted again." "It''s Your Majesty, Ron." Qin Chi handed the note to Yan Xianqing. Yan Xianqing took it and took a look and knew his purpose, "You look like this and you want to take a long leave?" "Can you?" Qin Chi sat down unceremoniously, "Your Majesty said that he would wait until the poisoning case is investigated. The murderer is still in the county jail near Taihu Lake. You also know how fast the Yamen releases prisoners to Beijing. It will take at least two months to wait for them to go to Beijing. , not counting the time for investigation. Yan Xianqing opened his mouth to say something. Finally, the two looked at each other. Everyone knows it. According to their understanding of Yuan Shangshu. The murderer probably won''t survive in the capital. Yan Xianqing whispered: "This matter will probably be dealt with without any pain. You have to be mentally prepared." "Hey, I know. It''s just hard to calm down if you expose this matter." Qin Chi said this, but in fact he knew in his heart that this matter could not bring Yuan Shangshu down. You must know that the last corruption case was much more serious than this one, and the evidence was sufficient. From the beginning, he just wanted to use this to stimulate conflicts between the Yuan family and the Yang family. The situation in the palace today is pretty good. The two chatted heart-to-heart for a while. Qin Chi took the vacation note stamped with his official seal and left the Hanlin Academy. He went back to Cuihua Hutong without visiting anyone else. Song Jin was sewing children''s clothes at home. Yinlong was with him. When Qin Chi came in, he happened to see Xing Shu driving a donkey cart to go shopping and go home. Xing Shu said respectfully: "The common people have seen your Excellency." "You don''t have to be polite to my family." Qin Chi knew that Song Jin and Jin Xing''s family were very close, and they almost acted as Song Jin''s natal family. Xing Shu smiled honestly. Qin Ba came to help and moved the things on the donkey cart into the house. Except for some daily necessities, most of them are grain and some dry goods, fish and meat. Old man Hong was helping. Old Uncle Li pulled the carriage and parked it, then came to Old Man Hong and muttered happily. Qin Chi took the lead in entering the house. When they entered the wing, they saw Song Jin doing needlework with gentle eyebrows, and Yinlong next to her was making a pair of small tiger-head shoes. The two were talking and laughing. Qin Chi stepped into the threshold, and Song Jin looked up and saw, "Ms. sir, why are you back so early today?" "Things went well." Qin Chi replied with a smile. Yinlong put away the sewing basket, then asked Xiaofu to bring a bowl of tea, and placed it on the small table where Qin Chi could easily reach it. Then, Yinlong led the people out of the house. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Looking at the door, there was no one there. Qin Chi said softly: "Today, Yuan Shangshu sued Yang Lingyu. Yang Lingyu has been dismissed from his post and investigated, and he has been imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment." He recounted what happened in the court today. In the past government affairs, Qin Chi would not necessarily agree with Song Jin. Today''s matter is related to the Song family. While saying this, Qin Chi kept paying attention to Song Jin. Song Jin held the needle and thread tightly. After a while, she put down the needle and thread, lowered her eyelids meekly, and asked, "Is it possible for him to be released from prison?" "There are no accidents. You can''t escape the death penalty." Strictly judged according to the laws of Daxia, Yang Lingyu could die countless times. The only uncertain factor is that Emperor Ming became emperor. Qin Chi didn''t say anything about this. He believed that Song Jin could understand it himself. Song Jin was silent for a long time, "Even if you don''t hand over the memorial to Magistrate Yang today, Yuan Shangshu may still sue Yang Lingyu. He has written the memorial and brought the evidence with him." "That''s not necessarily the case." Qin Chi picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. "Yuan Shangshu might reveal the evidence if he gets it, or he can use it as a handle to threaten the Yang family for the best interests. He brought the evidence and the memorial with him because he wanted to Wait for the opportunity. Trust me, if he doesnt need it today, he will bring it to the next court meeting. These old ghosts in official circles are best at finding opportunities. Qin Chi just gave him a push today. Song Jin looked at Qin Chi intently. Waiting for his next step. Qin Chi was shaken by her for a moment, but he soon put on a straight posture and drank tea to cover up the ripples in his heart, "If I don''t push him today, Old Ghost Yuan won''t show the evidence. " "Why?" Song Jin was confused. "His Majesty saw the silk letter of gratitude, and it was clear that he was very happy. Old Ghost Yuan wanted to give the Yang family a blow, but he would not choose today. It undoubtedly ruined His Majesty''s interest." Qin Chi has too many lice and won''t bite him. As Yuan Shangshu who understood Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty, this is not necessarily the case. The older these veterans live, the more cautious they will be. But Qin Chi hopes that Yuan Shangshu will choose today. It happened to anger Emperor Mingcheng. Emperor Mingcheng who is not angry will not have a deep memory. Song Jin heard Qin Chi''s analysis and his bad taste. She was grateful but couldn''t help laughing, "My husband has to worry about my family''s affairs." "Don''t say this again. My husband won''t want to hear it." Qin Chi smiled and said seriously, "My wife''s family is also my family." Song Jin subconsciously reached out and held Qin Chi''s hand. Qin Chi held her hand with his backhand, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and there was a different kind of light in his eyes. Chapter 319 Reactions from all parties Chapter 319 Reactions from all parties The real life-and-death game between the Yuan and Yang families has just begun. Now the two families are already riding a tightrope. During the investigation of the case, the entire clan will definitely fight to the death, and Qin Chi does not want to get involved. Emperor Ming Cheng asked him to take a vacation, which was actually a good thing for him. Of course, when appropriate, he will still secretly add fuel to the flames. Qin Chi then ordered to close the door and thank the guests. That posture means not paying attention to the tense and repressive atmosphere in the court, and not caring about the life or death of others. The couple discussed affairs between the DPRK and China. Song Jin wondered where his family was. Over the years, Song Jin was almost certain that the Song family was imprisoned on a certain island in the waters around Fuzhou, and it was most likely related to the Liu family. There are no clues yet as to where exactly it is. Song Jin said whimsically: "Mr. Sir, do you think the people behind the scenes will release my family in order to exonerate Yang Lingyu? As long as my family lives well, it will only be said to the outside world that the whole family has been relocated." Those who are said to be dead are alive. The crime can be much lighter. Qin Chi almost choked on his tea when he heard this, "Madam, don''t be sad, you still have me." The person behind this is so damned, his wife is dreaming about her family. "I am fine." Song Jin''s mentality is very stable. There will be sadness in this life, but it will not make her lose her composure. To outsiders, Song Jin has been separated from his family for several years. In fact, more than twenty years have passed in his past and present lives, and many things and people in his memory have long been blurred. She persisted in searching until now just because this was her only obsession in her two lifetimes. While the couple was talking. There was great turmoil in the Yuan and Yang families. Yuan Shangshu''s family was a little better off. After all, this was not the first time he had been banned. When he returned to Yuan Mansion, he immediately summoned his staff to discuss the matter. Tell me what happened in the palace. The staff member hit the nail on the head: "Is it possible that Qin Qian is behind this matter?" "Does he have this ability?" Yuan Shangshu would have scoffed last year. Not so sure now. He made things difficult for Qin Chi for three days, and even sent people to assassinate the opponent, but the opponent was still unharmed. I originally heard that he was critically ill in Taihu Lake last time, so I thought he was dead this time, but who knew that he was strong enough to turn the corner. Did you say you met a doctor with good medical skills? Yuan Shangshu doubted this, "I doubt he has been poisoned at all. Do you want the imperial doctor to check his pulse?" "It''s been so long, can you still figure it out?" Staff didn''t think the move was useful. The medical skills of some people in Tai Hospital are not as good as the rumors outside. Many of the statements are modified by words, with some exaggerated elements in them. For example, to cure a minor illness or pain, the prescriptions are passed down from previous dynasties or predecessors. You can copy them according to others and cure the patient. After word spread, he praised the other party for his medical skills. For example, most of the Liu family''s medical skills are promoted in this way. Staff members speak out their ideas. Yuan Shangshu was not sure either, "We will have to invite someone over first to find out whether it is possible." No real action. It''s useless just to guess here. Immediately, Yuan Shangshu called the old housekeeper and ordered: "Take my name card and go to the imperial hospital to ask for Dr. Zhuo. You can prepare a generous gift and visit the Qin Mansion." "Old slave, let''s do it now." The old housekeeper took the name card handed over by Yuan Shangshu and left. Only then did the staff ask: "Isn''t Dr. Liu the one with the best medical skills?" "Why do you think so?" Yuan Shangshu asked. "He is the envoy of the hospital." "If you can be the envoy of Taiyuan Hospital, your medical skills will not be deceptive, but it may not be the best." After spending many years in official circles, Yuan Shangshu knew more secrets than others. At the Yang family almost at the same time. Almost all the heads of the Yang family gathered in the study. Elder Yang Ge also asked people to invite the elders of the clan to come together to discuss the matter. Compared with Yuan Shangshu''s innocuous accusation, once the Yang family''s accusation was proven, the consequences would be disastrous. Yang Yingji and Yang Yingrong also hurried back home. Came to Mr. Yang Ge''s study. "Grandpa!" Yang Yingji came in and saluted Mr. Yang Ge. Yang Yingrong also saluted. Senior General Yang Ge briefly mentioned what happened in today''s court meeting, "The Yuan family is going to kill us, and we must come up with a way to deal with it as soon as possible." "Huizhou, what happened in Huizhou, it''s really, really..." Yang Yingrong didn''t finish his words, but everyone understood. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! He wanted to ask whether Yang Lingyu had really committed the major case in Huizhou. Mr. Yang Ge''s face was as serious as ice, "Whether it was Ling Yu''s fault or not, he can''t escape the responsibility. Now it''s a matter of whether the crime is serious or not, and whether the family will be implicated." "I heard that official documents and files were burned." Yang Ge''s eldest son said. He is currently working as a doctor in the Ministry of Rites. He was also in the hall today, but he was standing very far back. Yang Ge said: "The government officials came to raid the house. Ling Yu was the prefect at the time. Without official documents from the government, who would dare to raid a member of the clan? I don''t need to explain some of the truth." Even if you jump into the Yellow River, you won''t get rid of it. When Yang Yingrong saw his grandfather''s attitude, or other uninformed people saw that Mr. Yang Ge did not deny it on the spot, it was almost certain that Yang Lingyu had indeed done such a heartbreaking thing. Three generations of the Yang family are present here. The elders of the clan who sent people to invite him have not arrived yet. Not to mention whether the Yang family can think of a way to get rid of the trapped mirror, the outlook on life of the younger generation of the Yang family has been impacted. In recent years, Mr. Yang Ge has been at the helm. They have been educated since they were three years old and have been deeply influenced by Confucianism. They have learned the way of a gentleman, benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom and trust, etc., and they have been well educated. In other words, Yang Yingrong is a dandy. Yang Yingrong is also promising now. He went to the Wucheng Military and Horse Division and became a squad leader. The Yang family seems to be prosperous. Without waiting for Mr. Yang Ge to continue speaking. Yang Yingji looked angry, "Grandpa, there are more than a hundred lives, how dare he dare?!" "That''s right! This time our Yang family was implicated to death by him." "A century-old reputation was ruined." "He is the sinner of the Yang family!" "Imitate the Yuan family and get rid of him!" One person said that others seemed to have found an outlet to vent their anger and dissatisfaction. Mr. Yang Ge and Mr. Yang looked at each other. There was helplessness in the eyes of the father and son. Very few people in the Yang family knew about the matter between the former prince and Mr. Yan. Apart from their father and son, there was Yang Lingyu. Among the three, the one who knew the most was undoubtedly Mr. Yang Ge. In the twenty-five years before the accident happened to the Song family in Huizhou, the Lord and Mr. Yan searched for various talents among the people to strengthen and develop themselves, from nothing to the present. He has always acted in a secretive manner. However, the case of the Song family in Huizhou caught Mr. Yang Ge by surprise. Those people have gone too far! The more Mr. Yang Ge thought about it, the more angry he became. The plan on the capital side was progressing smoothly. Its hard to say now Chapter 320 The reason for the Song familys misfortune Chapter 320 The reason for the Song familys misfortune After the Yang family vented a meal. Elder Yang Ge looked around. Except for his eldest grandson Yang Yingji, who calmed down, the others still looked indignant. After all, they were young and not yet old enough to do anything. Veteran Yangge simply sent him away. Only Yang Langzhong remained. However, Yang Yingji did not leave and wanted to find out the truth: "Grandfather, father, and cousin don''t seem to be the kind of people who would do anything for profit. Why did he want to harm the Song family? Is there a hidden secret in this?" Among the juniors, Yang Yingji is the leader. The weight is second only to Yang Langzhong. Facing his question, Mr. Yang Ge remained silent. Yang Langzhong didn''t seem to want his son to get involved, "Ji''er, there''s something hidden in this matter, and it''s not your cousin''s fault alone. What we want to think about now is how to save your cousin''s life." "The evidence is conclusive, how else can we crack it?" Yang Yingji saw that his grandfather and father were hiding something from him. Yang Langzhong said solemnly: "Yuan Shangshu''s corruption case last year also has conclusive evidence." Yang Yingji opened his eyes suddenly. Obviously, the three views have been impacted again. Yang Yingji knew how Yuan Shangshu got away with his crime at the beginning, and his family was very disdainful and unhappy about it. What about now? Do they want to learn Yuan Shangshu''s methods? Just at this moment, servants outside hurriedly came to report that several clan leaders had entered the house. Now that people have entered the house, they will arrive in the study in half an hour. Elder Yang Ge said to his eldest grandson: "Ji''er, please retreat first." "grandfather." Yang Yingji didn''t want to leave. His father has asked him to take over some family affairs. Do you want him to avoid this incident? But when he met Mr. Yang Ge''s serious gaze, Yang Yingji could only leave first. Yang Langzhong looked at his son''s leaving figure and whispered: "Father, why don''t you keep Ji''er?" "You are still young, and you have a sense of righteousness. It is better for me that I don''t know until the big event is decided." Mr. Yang Ge suppressed the worries in his heart, "In recent years, that person''s temperament has become more and more violent, even worse than that of the one in the palace. The Yang family has jumped on his boat, and the fortunes and misfortunes are unpredictable." "Father regrets it?" "After all these years, it''s not that I don''t have regrets in my heart. It''s just that I chose this path back then. If I regret it, I have to go on. As the saying goes, it''s easier to get on board than to get off." Mr. Yang Ge was thinking about whether there was a way out after the Dong Chuang incident. It was the first time that Yang Langzhong heard his father say he regretted it. Not only his father, he has also lived in trepidation these years, and he has been walking on thin ice in the yamen. In fact, sometimes he would think, if his father wanted to hide it from other people in the family, why would he tell him? It''s better to hide it from him too. This way he doesn''t have to live with such a big secret. A lot of hair fell out. Living is becoming more tiring day by day. Yang Langzhong said: "What happened to the Song family in Huizhou? Does father know the inside story?" "Liu Bingzheng didn''t know where he learned about the Song family in Huizhou. His ancestors had several imperial doctors. He was a descendant of the famous Song imperial doctor in the previous dynasty. It was he who told Mr. Yan that the Song family had an ancient recipe called Huichun, which could save people or kill people. Mr. Yang Ge doesn''t know much about medical skills. Just got a rough idea. Yang Langzhong gritted his teeth and said, "Is the Liu family coveting the Song family''s things?" "The authenticity is unknown. Anyway, the medical classics confiscated from the Song family should be in the hands of that old man Liu Bingzheng." Mr. Yang Ge only listened to it afterwards. I had only heard a little bit about it beforehand. If he had paid more attention, Yang Lingyu might not have been involved in this matter. Mr. Yang Ge was furious: "I don''t know what those people did or who came up with the idea. If we have to accuse the Song family and then ransack the house, it would be better to simply loot it. At least Ling Yu won''t be involved in the Dongchuang incident." The real handle is in the hands of others. Mr. Yang Ge used to think that his nephew was a smart person, but now he realized that smart people can also do stupid things. Dare to agree to anything! Yang Langzhong gritted his teeth and cursed, "Liu Bingzheng is just a bully who deceives teachers and destroys his ancestors! He must have selfish motives to mention it to Mr. Yan." The father and son did not know. Their guess was very close to the truth. The three generations of the Liu family have the reputation of being a family with medical skills, but in fact their medical background is shallow, which is a big problem for Liu Bingzheng. In the files collected by Taiyuan Hospital, he accidentally discovered records about the Song family, a medical family of the previous dynasty, whose ancestral home was Huizhou Prefecture. Immediately sent people to Huizhou to investigate. There were almost no members of the Song family practicing medicine, but there was a well-known drug dealer named Song. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! After tracing it out, it was indeed the Song family he was looking for, so he asked someone to contact Song Kuan and said he wanted to buy the Song family''s ancestral pharmacopoeia. Song Kuan thought that the other party coveted the "Song Pharmacopoeia" and refused on the spot. In fact, even if he knew it was not the case, Song Kuan would refuse. The Song family is not short of money and has not yet fallen to the point of selling out its ancestral property. It''s not surprising that Liu Bingzheng stepped on his master to ascend to the throne and secretly murdered his family. It''s not surprising that he once again took a look at other people''s wealth. He couldn''t do anything to the Song family in Huizhou, so he went to Mr. Yan and mentioned the ancient prescription. The people behind the scenes went to investigate the Song family in Huizhou. The things found out are naturally coveted. The report was reported to the former crown prince and Mr. Yan. The former crown prince immediately filed a complaint and wanted to take away the Song family members. Sometimes just a few words from a superior person can cause tragedy for countless people or families. The Song family in Huizhou is just the tip of the iceberg, an insignificant example in the eyes of those in power. Several elderly Yang family elders were led over by the old housekeeper. When several elders from the clan came forward, someone immediately closed the study door. After that, what was talked about in the study. The outside world doesn''t know. That night, Doctor Yang opened up connections and went to Xingbu Prison to meet Yang Lingyu. The next day, when Xingbu came for interrogation, Yang Yingyu was extremely cooperative, saying that he had received an official document from the provincial government that day, and that he only enforced the law in accordance with the official document. Even the case was not reviewed by him, but was an order issued directly from above. As for official documents? There was a fire in the Yamen archives and some files were burned. The official documents were also burned at that time. Qin Chi also knew the results of the interrogation. He handed the brochure that his subordinates secretly sent to Song Jin to read, "Madam, don''t be angry after reading it. Always remember that you are not alone." As he spoke, his eyes glanced at Song Jin''s bulging belly. In fact, he didn''t want Song Jin to worry about this matter, but he knew that she had always been concerned about the Song family''s affairs. Don''t tell her this time. Instead, she would have random thoughts, so it would be better to tell her the progress directly. Song Jin read the confession sent. There is no sign or signature, so someone must have copied the contents. She glanced at Qin Chi again. Song Jin had a new understanding of the power behind Qin Chi. He actually had people in Xingbu. The status of the other party might not be low. Otherwise, he would not be qualified to access Yang Lingyu''s confession. Chapter 321 Under the peach blossom tree Chapter 321 Under the Peach Blossom Tree "How true is what he said?" Song Jin closed the book and asked. Qin Chi took the booklet in her hand and threw it to the brazier aside, "This will only be known after investigation, but he said that he was not the only one who had seen the official document, but also the colleagues and judges who worked with him had seen it. " "Are you trying to drag those two people into the water?" Song Jin knew that it would take some time to find out if he pulled this out. At least the people sent to Huizhou to investigate would take about forty days just to travel back and forth. They can only wait patiently for this matter. Qin Chi said: "I received news that Mr. Yang went to the prison to see Yang Lingyu last night." "Is this because of anger?" Song Jin was a little annoyed. Qin Chi comforted him: "This is the beginning, don''t be impatient, madam. Mr. Yang Ge''s good reputation over the years is not in vain. He does have some abilities and has done some practical things, but he is cautious and never falls into trouble. Its not easy to find his fault, but some time ago he Song Jin gradually calmed down the anger in his heart. Mr. Yang Ge once went to the palace to find someone to take care of the uncle of the Liu family. Regarding Uncle Liu''s matter, he seemed to be quiet and did not fall into trouble, but he had a bigger handle. For example, Mr. Yang Ge went to meet Admiral Feng privately. This was a big mistake in itself. Collusion between officials and eunuchs is usually regarded as a crime of forming a clique for personal gain or being a clique. Qin Chi continued: "If someone reveals the case of the Liu family, and then implicates Mr. Yang Ge and Admiral Feng, no emperor would be happy to see ministers and eunuchs colluding." "Can this matter kill the Yang family?" Song Jin was doubtful. Qin Chi leaned into her ear again and whispered: "I have other plans, but I don''t know what the effect will be." "What''s the arrangement?" Song Jin asked in a low voice. There are obviously only two people here. Qin Chi insisted on speaking close to her ear, so she could only pretend to be cautious to cooperate with him. Suddenly, Qin Chi burst out laughing, "Just wait and see, I''ll give it a try first." That night. The imperial palace at night, Changchun Palace. Under the moonlight, the simple palace walls and pavilions are faintly visible against the lights. Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty and his concubine were preparing to go to bed. Suddenly, a sharp meow broke the silence. Originally, a cat meowing was nothing. But then there was another cat meow, a very shrill cry. Emperor Mingcheng turned over and sat up. The concubine who was sleeping with him was so shocked that she also knelt down on the bed. This girl was the granddaughter sent by Yuan Shangshu. She had a face as soft as water, and her face seemed no bigger than an adult''s hand. Her panicked look was charming and very irritating. Love. However, Emperor Mingcheng only took a look, then stood up and walked out. "Somebody come!" Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty spoke out. Soon a waiter hurried in. Emperor Mingcheng said again: "Go and see what''s going on." "Your Majesty, someone has already gone to check." The old **** responded respectfully. The cat meows still come. The sound was particularly penetrating in the quiet night. Everyone didn''t know what the cat meowing was about, but they could tell that the cat was in the Changchun Palace. Emperor Mingcheng frowned. He also ordered the guards guarding outside to check. The guards moved quickly, lanterns swaying in the night, reflecting their serious faces. In a corner of the Changchun Palace Garden. Under a peach blossom tree, the guards discovered something unusual. Several eunuchs were catching cats there. The guards went over and helped the **** catch several cats. Under the tree is a small pile of freshly dug soil, a small hole dug by the cat''s claws. "Hey, is there something under this pit?" A guard accidentally exclaimed. Others were attracted to it. Someone took a lantern to shine it, and then splashed some soil with their toes. "It is a wooden box. I don''t know who buried it in the soil. It has obviously been buried for a long time." "Dig it out." The leader of the guards ordered. The guard carefully dug out the box. Just as he was about to open it, the leader stopped him and shouted, "Are you going to die?" The guard was so shocked that he almost dropped the box to the ground. He almost forgot that on the first day of his duties, the Shangguan warned them that when serving in the palace, the less they knew, the longer they would live. The leader took the box and said, "Take the box back to His Majesty, and find a cage to lock up the captured cats." The leader takes the box away. Soon he appeared in front of Emperor Mingcheng. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty asked: "Dig it out from under the peach blossom tree?" "Yes, Your Majesty." The guard responded respectfully. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Emperor Mingcheng did not open it immediately, but asked: "When will there be a peach blossom tree in the Changchun Palace?" No one answered this for a while. After waiting for a while, an old palace maid who was on duty at Changchun Palace was found. She knelt down and replied: "Your Majesty, there is a peach blossom tree in the northeast corner of the back garden. It was planted by Concubine Shu during her lifetime." Emperor Mingcheng was stunned, "Is there still such a thing?" He only found out about this after so many years. The peach blossom tree is planted in a corner where no one usually passes by. The soil on the surface of the sandalwood box has been washed away by water, and there are traces of years buried in the soil for a long time. The wooden box is beautifully carved with dragon and phoenix patterns, and there is also a copper lock hanging on it. Anyone who sees it can tell that this is not something ordinary people can use. Emperor Mingcheng looked at the box, his eyes bright and clear, and waved the guards to retreat. Various traces show it. This box was probably buried by the dead Concubine Shu. Changchun Palace was once the place where Concubine Shu lived. No other concubine stayed there after her death. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty only came to Changchun Palace when he missed Concubine Shu. Until Yuan Shangshu sent his granddaughter who looked exactly like Concubine Shu into the palace. Whether the woman was the granddaughter of the Yuan family, or whether the Yuan family secretly collected and trained her among the people, it didn''t matter to Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. The important thing is that this person looks like Concubine Shu. Not only their appearance, but also their words, deeds, and demeanor are very similar. Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty felt as if he had seen the deceased Concubine Shu at first sight. The older the man gets, the more nostalgic he becomes. Miss the beauty of the past and miss the ones I once loved. In my memory, Concubine Shu was a gentle and gentle beauty. She never competed or fought for her in the palace. She only thought about him and admired him. He is the person who loves him most in this world. But she died, died at the most beautiful age, and died in his arms. This was the pain of Emperor Ming Cheng''s life. Even if he is an emperor. Still can''t save the one I love. Emperor Mingcheng said: "Open the box." "Your Majesty, there is no key." The **** reminded in a low voice. Emperor Mingcheng asked again: "It''s just an old copper lock. Does it still need a key to open it?" The **** violently opened the lock. Opening the lid, there are two things wrapped in brocade. A mandarin duck jade pendant with a person''s name engraved on it, and a concentric knot made of two strands of hair. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty picked up the Yuanyang jade pendant. Just one glance, and his face suddenly turned as cold as ice. The name of the person engraved on the jade pendant. One is Concubine Shu''s maiden name, and the other is a man''s name, but it is not Emperor Mingcheng! Chapter 322 This is about a mans dignity Chapter 322 This is about a mans dignity Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty held the mandarin duck jade pendant in his big hand with blue veins popping out. There was no need to check the jade pendant. He put the jade pendant back into the sandalwood box, and then closed the box with a snap. Then he stared at the sandalwood box. His hands were groping on it, as if to determine something. This is a piece of lacquerware that can last for thousands of years if buried in soil or water. It still feels as smooth as new. You can only tell from the color that it was newly unearthed. "Put the things away. No one is allowed to look at them. Anyone who dares to peek will die." Emperor Mingcheng''s words were almost squeezed out from the gaps between his teeth, with hatred and anger intertwined. Concubine Shu loves someone else. He didn''t ask anyone to investigate this matter. People are dead. The results of the investigation, whether true or false, will only embarrass him. Emperor Ming Cheng didn''t investigate who the man in the jade pendant was, but that didn''t mean he didn''t investigate what happened tonight. "Come here! Find out what''s going on with those cats. Let the people from the Imperial Hospital take a look. I want the results before dawn." The visitor immediately took orders and left. There must be someone behind this incident. The purpose is to get him to dig out the box. Whether the people behind it were targeting the Yang family or the Yuan family, it can be said that they were successful. This incident was like a thorn, instantly piercing the fantasy that Emperor Ming Cheng had weaved for a long time. An ordinary person might think that there are many doubts about this matter, and it is obvious that it was framed by others. The buried box may not be real. The mandarin duck jade pendant may also be fake, including the concentric knot that symbolizes the couple''s hair, or it may be intentional by the people behind the scenes. However, Emperor Ming Cheng''s rich life experience told him. That adulterer is probably true! The person must be real and can withstand Jin Yiwei''s investigation. This alone is true enough! Emperor Mingcheng refused to allow anyone to investigate. It was his last act of stubbornness as a man, and he wanted to save some face and dignity for himself. "Let''s go back to Qianqing Palace!" Emperor Mingcheng ordered to go down. One after another, inner temples came in to serve him and dress him, and then left the Changchun Palace without any regrets. Standing at the gate of Changchun Palace, Emperor Mingcheng suddenly stopped. He turned back to the chief **** and said, "Bring the sandalwood box with you." "Yes, Your Majesty." The affairs of Changchun Palace are not difficult to investigate. When Emperor Ming Cheng returned to Qianqing Palace, Changchun Palace was closed after Emperor Ming Cheng left. The guards surrounded the palace gate and began to investigate one by one. The imperial doctor who was on duty tonight also called over to help. One was to check why a few cats were acting abnormally, and the other was to go to the scene to look for clues. The results came before dawn. "Nepeta, someone sprinkled Nepeta powder on the soil. It is a medicine that can attract cats." The imperial doctor knelt in front of Emperor Ming Cheng and reported tremblingly. Nepeta is a kind of medicinal material, commonly known as camphor grass, cool mint, etc. It has an odor that can make cats excited and happy. Those cats originally lived in the cold palace, and they were lured there tonight. It was found that a young **** did it. After the guards searched, they found the body of the young **** in the cold palace. Not long after he hanged himself, the clues ended here. Emperor Mingcheng sneered: "My palace has become a sieve. Get out of here. If anything about what happened tonight is spread outside the palace, all those who know about it will be executed." "According to the order." The others wiped away the cold sweat and exited. They were lucky tonight, Emperor Mingcheng didn''t go on a killing spree. But now he was sitting in front of the imperial court, with murderous intent in his eyes, but luckily he endured it. Even if Emperor Mingcheng issued a gag order, just as he said, the palace had already become a sieve. Sealing also seals those who have no masters behind them. People who have masters behind their backs always have a way to spread the matter out of the palace. Thanks to Emperor Ming Cheng, he did not let anyone except him see the contents of the sandalwood box, nor did he let anyone see the contents of the sandalwood box. To investigate, there are currently few people who know the details. The only person who knows is the person who did this behind the scenes. Just like the Qin family in Cuihua Hutong. Before dawn, Old Man Hong received news from the palace. The message was delivered to Qin Chi again. After seeing it, Qin Chi raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "It''s done, no need to pay attention anymore, let others pay attention to their safety." "Yes, sir." Old Man Hong knew what Qin Chi had done, "The man in the palace actually tolerated it and never sent the Jin Yiwei to investigate." "I wouldn''t do it either." Qin Chi threw the message into the brazier, "This is about a man''s dignity." Old Man Hong''s mouth twitched. He really couldn''t understand it, probably because he didn''t have a woman. There were three thousand beauties in the palace. Many years after Concubine Shu''s death, the Changchun Palace where she lived was still vacant, and the layout was maintained as it was during her lifetime. Only Emperor Ming Cheng occasionally visited. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! This is enough for people to know. The status of Concubine Shu in the heart of Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. It was strange that Emperor Mingcheng felt comfortable when he suddenly learned that Concubine Shu had someone else in love. If the news spread, wouldn''t he become a huge joke? "When does the young master plan to return to Huizhou?" Old Man Hong knew Qin Chi''s plan. Qin Chi said: "I will discuss it with my wife when the reward for disaster relief comes." Qin Chi''s promotion in the main hall that day was the temporary intention of Emperor Ming Cheng, and some material rewards would follow. Qin Chi said that the reward had not been received, but it was the people who went to the disaster relief work together. As long as they went there, they would get some credit. The rewards for these people are subject to cabinet deliberations. Then he wrote a memorial and submitted it to Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty for approval. At this time, familiar footsteps came from the corridor outside the door. Qin Chi and Old Man Hong stopped talking. As footsteps approached, there was no need for the other party to speak. All the seriousness on Qin Chi''s face disappeared, revealing a light smile, "My wife is coming over to call me for breakfast. Is there anything else, Uncle Hong?" "No, uncle, I''m going to eat too." Old Man Hong felt a bit sore after saying this. Turning around and walking out the door, he met Song Jin in front of the door. Old Man Hong stepped aside and let Song Jin go first. At the same time, he bent down and saluted, "I have met Madam." "Uncle Hong, you don''t have to be polite. Breakfast is ready in the kitchen. Go eat it while it''s hot." Song Jin said with a warm smile. "Hey, okay." Old Man Hong waited for Song Jin to enter the study, then he stood up and left. Song Jin stepped into the study room, and Qin Chi was the first to greet her. He naturally reached out to support her and said with concern: "It''s enough to let other people say it. Why does the lady come in person?" "Lao Jing asked me to walk more often, saying it is good for my health." Song Jin said gently. While Qin Chi helped Song Jin walk out, he whispered something in her ear, making her eyebrows curl up. After having breakfast together, rinse your mouth with tea. Qin Chi took Song Jin for a walk in the yard on the pretext of digestion after the meal. He obviously didn''t do anything, but Qin Chi stayed by Song Jin''s side. In the eyes of others, it seemed that he had done everything well. The two of them seemed to be a world of their own, with the feeling that no one else could blend in. Yinlong stopped the maid. Let them not disturb the two of them. Qin Ba and the others also bypassed it wisely. Chapter 323 One event after another Chapter 323: Lively events one after another Next three days. Scandals involving branches of the Yang family were exposed one after another. In the beginning, things were neither big nor small. For example, a person from the branch forcibly took a daughter of a good family as a concubine, another person threatened and induced others to buy the village and shop at a low price, or maybe killed a few slaves, etc. The first things were normal, but the later ones were outrageous. Even trivial things like someone from the Yang family stealing eggs, peeping on the widow taking a bath, plucking vegetables from someone else''s house, etc. were revealed! Some Yang family members stood up to defend themselves. But the person who told it had a nose and an eye, and the time and place were very clear, making it much more credible. Someone went to the government office to sue the Yang family''s children. When the truth is investigated, it turns out that the so-called **** of a girl from a good family as a concubine is true. The woman is indeed looking for a life and death, but her elders accepted the concubine gift, so it is not a big deal if it is really discussed. It is true to threaten people to buy Zhuangzi at a low price. There is no lack of evidence for this. After all, when people buy it, they really pay money, which is only 10% or 20% less than the market price. The matter of beating slaves to death. All slaves signed a death contract. If they were charged with theft and beaten to death, the problem would be over. The most the yamen could do was fine them, or they might ask the master''s family to beat them up a few times, which was not a big deal. The crimes one after another are not serious. The combination of large and small is enough to make people remember. Coupled with the spread of rumors by some people, especially the Yuan family, who worked very hard to cause trouble for the Yang family, in the next few days, the book of impeachment against the Yang family continued. How many days has Yang Lingyu been in jail? The Yang family had expected that someone would cause trouble so soon, but they did not expect that it would be so violent. The grounded Mr. Yang Ge looked very unhappy, "Are all those charges true?" "Yes, there is." An elder in the Yang family said with a guilty conscience. The one who forcibly took a concubine was his junior, "Zhengkai, you know that there are not many bad things in any family." Elder Yang Ge said angrily: "What happened to those slaves who died?" "Death, only two died." The man replied helplessly, "It''s said to be theft, but I don''t know whether it''s true or not." He couldn''t say that it was the younger members of the clan who had unclean hands and feet. Faced with the punishment of their elders, they blamed it on the two slaves. The elders were furious and killed them with a stick. "The impeachment of my Yang family is like snowflakes. You never know when the Yang family will be finished." Mr. Yang Ge had nowhere to vent his anger. The elders of several clans were short of breath and difficult to answer. You must know that it is the side branch that makes mistakes. Even Yang Yingrong, the most **** in Mr. Yang Ge''s lineage, was not exposed this time. On the contrary, they kept themselves in trouble. Sitting next to Mr. Yang Ge, Yang Yingji, who had always been silent, said: "Grandpa, so many things have been exposed in our clan at once, which means that we have been targeted very early." "Yes, but we didn''t realize it at all." This is the strange part. How cautious should the other party be so that the Yang family does not receive any news? Yang Yingji said: "Among those who contributed to the flames, the Yuan family caused the most trouble. Could it be the Yuan family?" "It''s not necessarily the Yuan family. Before we turned against the Yuan family, the other party had already targeted the Yang family." After Mr. Yang calmed down and thought about it, the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. If you were a more magnanimous person, you might not break out in a cold sweat. Mr. Yang Ge himself has a secret, and it is a secret that is enough to make the Yang family confiscate and exterminate the family. If outsiders find out, the Yang family will be doomed. Mr. Yang Ge made a decision immediately: "The Yang family''s scandal alone is not exciting enough. At least the Yuan family''s scandal must be exposed. The Yuan family has a lot of dirty things. It is much uglier than our Yang family. Wait for what happened to his family." Once it comes out... who will pay attention to the Yang family anymore? "These things about the Yang family can only be regarded as drizzle. If we really want to talk about which big family in Beijing is the cleanest, the Yang family will definitely rank high. This cleanliness does not refer to character. It''s about whether you have done anything harmful to nature or justice. That afternoon. Yuan Shipeng was the first to bear the brunt. "I heard that the Yuan family is going to be in trouble again." "Not necessarily, Yuan Shipeng has been exterminated by the Yuan family long ago." "Hey, you didn''t know this. On the surface, he said he was a member of the clan, but it was just a way to get out of the crime. Someone saw Yuan Shipeng in Huizhou. It is said that the scenery is very beautiful." "What''s going on?" "That guy has changed his name. He looks like a young man. He is playing with a group of friends in a scenic spot in Huangshan Mountain, accompanied by oirans and beauties." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Hey, shouldn''t he be in a penal colony?" "You don''t understand this..." Several teahouses and wine shops in the capital are discussing this matter. Song Jin suspected that this was a counterattack by the Yang family, and asked Qin Chi: "Is the Yang family''s counterattack a little late?" "It''s not too late. The Yuan family''s family tradition is much worse than that of the Yang family. There will probably be trouble in the future." Qin Chi asked Song Jin to sit in front of the dressing table. He personally took the wooden comb and combed her hair carefully. Song Jin was not willing to let him do it. His skills are much worse than hers. It was Qin Chi who insisted on doing it, but Song Jin couldn''t resist, "Did Yuan Shipeng really get bumped into while playing in Huangshan? Huangshan is so big and has so many peaks, how come he happened to be bumped into by an acquaintance." "It''s said to be a coincidence, but do you really think it''s a coincidence?" Qin Chi seemed to have told her earlier that the Yang family was investigating Yuan Shipeng. "I''m afraid the Yang family has found out long ago and just kept it hidden. But. After all, Yuan Shipeng has left his clan, and his affairs have a negative impact on the Yuan family..." "The impact is still there." Song Jin thought of another problem, "The person Yuan Shipeng should have been exiled is getting away with it. The most likely person to protect him is the Yuan family." "I think the person who did this should be the deceased Mrs. Yuan. She did it secretly without telling the Yuan family." Yuan Shipeng was abandoned by the Yuan family, and it was unlikely that the Yuan family would use their connections for him again. Only Madam Yuan always loved Yuan Shipeng and could do anything. Qin Chi could smell the bloodshed in the future just from this incident, "This incident with the Yuan family has just begun." Song Jin used to collect scandals about the Yang family and had people spread them one after another. It can only be regarded as a small push to add fuel to the flames. However, the Yang family except Yang Lingyu was appalling. The other cases are not big and can be solved easily by the Yang family. One thing that cannot be avoided by the Yang family is that the reputation they have accumulated for a century has been ruined, along with the reputation that Mr. Yang Ge has been running for half his life. "Sir, madam, there is big gossip outside!" Qin Ba''s joyful voice came from the door. Qin Chi put down the wooden comb, helped Song Jin get up, walked to the chair outside and sat down. There are soft cushions under the chairs. Qin Chi said: "Tell me, what''s the matter?" "Yuan Shangshu was drunk once and slept with his eldest son''s concubine. The most terrible thing was that not long after, the concubine became pregnant. Now people outside are guessing whether the child is his or his son''s." Qin Ba''s eyes were astonishingly bright when he reported. "puff-" Is this something outsiders can hear? Chapter 324 Created a yellow rumor Chapter 324: Rumors started "Slander! It''s pure slander!" Yuan Shangshu was so angry that he spurted out blood, "Who is so unscrupulous and spreads rumors about the imperial officials? I want to report them to the officials. I must report them to the officials and put them all in jail." I heard that the Yang family was in trouble. Yuan Shangshu was sitting back and waiting to see the joke. As a result, the Yang family was not a good person and actually spread rumors. The staff quickly advised: "Sir, please calm down." "If this kind of thing can calm down my anger, am I still a human being?" Yuan Shangshu walked out angrily and called the housekeeper loudly. The old housekeeper came over in a hurry. Yuan Shangshu immediately ordered: "Send someone to report to the Yamen and ask the governor to investigate the person behind the rumors!" "Old slave, let''s do it now." Just as the old housekeeper was about to turn around and leave, he was stopped by Yuan Shangshu again. Yuan Shangshu asked: "Isn''t Imperial Physician Zhuo still available?" "Back to the master, I asked someone to guard the door of Zhuo Mansion. Dr. Zhuo has been in the palace these days." "Always in the palace?" Yuan Shangshu suddenly became suspicious. He waved to the old housekeeper to step back, and then went back to the study to mention the matter to his staff. The staff member said: "Something may have happened in the palace. Could it be that His Majesty is sick?" "I sent someone to ask for Dr. Zhuo earlier, but Dr. Zhuo was on duty that night and did not leave the palace. The next day, I heard that something seemed to have happened in Changchun Palace, and there was no news from the palace after that. Now that I think about it, something is really not right. " Yuan Shangshu was keenly aware of the unusual situation. Let people continue to inquire, especially about matters in the palace. Here, the Yuan family went to the government office to file a complaint against someone for slandering the imperial official. Fu Yin had a headache when he received this case, "This is a fight between gods, and it affects the fish in the pond." "Sir, do you want to check?" Fu Cheng asked. Fu Yin took a deep breath and said calmly: "Yuan Shangshu has come to report to the official, and we can''t ignore it. However, the Yuan family has been busy recently, so he probably won''t care about this small matter. He asked Zhizhong to arrange for someone to visit the tea house and restaurant. Try to suppress the rumors. "I understand, I will give you the orders now." Fu Cheng blinked and went out to look for someone with a smile. If he really goes to war to arrest people over this matter, the governor will not do such a thankless task, and just send people to pretend to be outside and deal with it. Cuihua Hutong. Qin Chi and Song Jin heard about Yuan Mansion and went to report to the officials. Song Jin joked: "It''s a very clever method. It should be able to suppress the rumors quickly." "Outsiders can''t confirm whether it''s true or not. The Yuan family handled it appropriately." Qin Chi was looking at the information sent from various places. Song Jin asked again: "Who did your Majesty entrust to investigate the case of poisoning you by the Yuan family?" "Ask Dali Temple to cooperate with Jin Yiwei''s investigation." "Do you think you can find out anything?" "The Yuan family has sent people to intercept him. It''s hard to say whether that person will survive to the capital." Qin Chi did not say that he would go to the capital for interrogation, which would be beneficial to the Yuan family. The original testimony was given by using drugs to make the person say it. When he was sober, the other person wanted to die as soon as he found the opportunity. If the person is sent to the capital, the confession will probably be retracted, and it will be easier for the Yuan family to escape guilt. However, the Yuan family will not believe that he did not betray. No, send someone to silence him immediately. Qin Chi asked someone to bring a message to Magistrate Yang in advance, and warned him to keep an eye on the prisoner and be careful about the people behind the scenes trying to kill him. It would be best if he could catch one or two thieves and pull out the radish and bring out the mud. It might be another great achievement. One piece. Qin Chi specially sent a eloquent person there. As long as Magistrate Yang is fooled, it will be a good knife. At that time, Qin Chi also thought of Xing Lun. It''s a pity that he is Song Jin''s subordinate, and he is embarrassed even if he wants to poach people. "Sir, the uncle of the Yuan family came to see you and said that he must meet you. He didn''t say what was going on, but I saw someone following him, like Dr. Zhuo." Qin Ba came to report. Song Jin and Qin Chi looked at each other. Qin Chi stood up, straightened his sleeves, straightened his clothes, and said warmly: "Madam, I will go out to meet the Yuan family for a while." "My lord, be careful." Song Jin knew that people coming from the Yuan Mansion would not do anything good. Qin Chi chuckled calmly, "Are you still worried about something happening at home?" "You never go too far wrong." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin didn''t agree with what he said. Qin Chi said quickly: "Okay, listen to my wife, I will definitely stay three feet away from the other party to talk." These words were quickly slapped in the face. When he went out to meet the guests, Uncle Yuan expressed his intention sincerely, "My father learned that Mr. Qin was poisoned and someone framed him in the Yuan family. Although it was not the Yuan family''s fault, my father still felt guilty, so he specially asked Dr. Zhuo will come over and give you a look." "The poison has been cured and the disease is cured, so it''s not necessary to invite the imperial doctor to visit now, right?" Qin Chi asked deliberately. Uncle Yuan''s polite attitude remained the same, "This is just to ask for peace of mind. As long as Mr. Qin is healthy, my father can feel at ease. Hey, my father is also kind-hearted. He has been worried because he does not confirm that you are okay. Recently, he has been even more worried. Its not very peaceful to sleep. "Ha, it turns out that it''s because of me, Yuan Shangshu, that I have trouble sleeping and eating." Qin Chi smiled lightly and breathed warmly, "I thought it was because I was drunk and missed something last time..." "Ahem." Uncle Yuan kept coughing and his face turned red from holding it in. Qin Chi quickly made a gesture of concern. Uncle Yuan shook his head repeatedly and said it was okay. He quickly looked at Dr. Zhuo on the side, and before Qin Chi could say anything, he bowed his hands and said, "Mr. Qin''s body is too much for Dr. Zhuo." Qin Chi is now a quasi-fourth-grade official. He was fully qualified to refuse the Yuan family''s unreasonable request. However, he unexpectedly did not refuse. He sat on the chair and raised his wrist in an easy-going manner and placed it on the tea table nearby. "Then I''ll trouble you, Imperial Doctor Zhuo." Qin Chi said calmly. This move made Uncle Yuan unpredictable. Dr. Zhuo walked over and bowed to Qin Chi before sitting down carefully. The attendant beside him took out a small wrist pillow from the medicine box on his back. Place the wrist pillow under Qin Chi''s wrist. Only then did Dr. Zhuo put **** on Qin Chi''s pulse. After finishing one wrist, switch to the other. Anyone who meets him will know that Dr. Zhuo is very attentive in diagnosing the pulse. After a moment, he let go of his hand and said truthfully: "Mr. Qin''s pulse is soft and thin, so he should have been born with a weak disease. Fortunately, he received treatment from a famous doctor since he was a child. Not long ago, he did have a serious illness, and he was tired, and his body Still needs good health. "Mr. Zhuo''s reputation is well-deserved." Qin Chi smiled politely and said, "The outside world says that you are a miracle doctor. There is no disease that cannot be cured by you." Dr. Zhuo quickly said modestly: "Everywhere, there are just lies. There is no real miracle doctor in the world. By the way, Mr. Qin, do you need me to give you a prescription?" "It''s what I asked for." Qin Chi immediately responded happily. Seeing his attitude, Doctor Zhuo immediately felt very fond of him. There are many rumors about Qin Chi. He is in a high position at a young age, but he does not have the arrogance he should have. Chapter 325 It’s unreasonable to say three points Chapter 325: Three points for unreasonable remarks Order people to prepare pen and ink. After careful consideration, Imperial Physician Zhuo wrote down a recipe and warned: "Brew three bowls of water over low heat until one bowl is boiled, once a day. After taking it for half a month, I will check the recovery situation." "Thank you, Dr. Xinzhuo." Qin Chi''s words were extremely sincere and he looked at Qin Ba aside. Qin Ba understood the idea, took out a purse and stuffed it into the hand of Imperial Physician Zhuo, "Be careful, please don''t refuse." "Ouch, how can this work?" Dr. Zhuo pretended to decline, "The Yuan family has already paid the consultation fee for inviting me here. Master Qin doesn''t need to do this." Qin Chi smiled and said: "The Yuan family returns to the Yuan family. This is my personal feeling." Qin Ba stuffed his wallet again. One to give and one to refuse. After doing this three or two times, Doctor Zhuo reluctantly gave up. Since you have received the silver reward, it is actually equivalent to seeing off guests. Uncle Yuan''s goal has been achieved, so he doesn''t mind leaving now. Dr. Zhuo hesitated a little when he left. He seemed to want to ask something, but in the end due to the presence of the Yuan family uncle, he couldn''t ask the question and could only wait until next time. After sending people away. Qin Ba came back and saw Qin Chi looking at the prescription prescribed by Dr. Zhuo, "Should this prescription be sent to Dr. Jing?" "Send it away." Qin Chi handed him the prescription. Qin Ba took the prescription and said, "Just now, Imperial Physician Zhuo looked like he had something to say, but in the end he didn''t say anything. Could he be trying to tell the young master that the Yuan family has ulterior motives?" "Ha, you are wrong." Qin Ba was able to notice something strange about Dr. Zhuo, so Qin Chi naturally didn''t miss it. "Doctor Zhuo probably wants to know who the famous doctor who treated me is." No more serious utilitarianism than Liu Bingzheng. Imperial Physician Zhuo is one of the few people in the imperial hospital who has good medical skills and is passionate about medicine. I heard that he will go to the palace to be the imperial physician in order to collect the medical books in the palace. Qin Ba took the prescription to see Dr. Jing. Song Jin also came to the front hall from the backyard, "Is someone gone?" "Let''s go." Qin Chi stepped forward and helped Song Jin to sit down. "You are so heavy, why are you here? Why don''t you pay attention? You are a double person." "Aren''t you tired of nagging me like this every day? It makes my ears go numb." Song Jin scolded him. Qin Chi''s eyebrows raised slightly, "Do you think you dislike your husband? Aren''t you afraid that I will be sad and disappointed?" "Hehehe." Qin Chi responded with Song Jin''s laughter. After Song Jin stopped laughing, he asked: "Why did the Yuan family come to visit?" "Please ask Dr. Zhuo to check my pulse." Qin Chi''s answer stunned Song Jin. Immediately, Qin Chi smiled again, "I guess he suspected that my claim of poisoning was false, so he invited Dr. Zhuo, who has the best medical skills, to come and take my pulse. It turns out that I took advantage. According to my current official rank, I can Im not qualified to have an imperial doctor come to my door. "What did he come up with?" Song Jin was a little insistent. Song Jin still knew whether Qin Chi was poisoned or not. Hearing this, Qin Chi smiled enigmatically. other side. Uncle Yuan left with Dr. Zhuo. Just got on the carriage. Uncle Yuan couldn''t wait to ask: "How are you, Imperial Physician Zhuo? Has Qin Qian been poisoned before?" "It is true that there are pulses just after a serious illness." Dr. Zhuo continued in very professional words, "It is impossible to judge whether the other party is sick due to poisoning. There are some poisons in the world that are easy to cure and some that are difficult to cure. First of all, we must look at what Mr. Qin said earlier. What kind of poison was it? After the poisoning, was it discovered in time? If the poison can be cured before it penetrates deep into the lungs, it is normal that the pulse cannot be taken out..." "It seems to be the birth of Nanxing." "Well, it''s very simple. If you spit it out in time and take a lot of **** juice, it will be cured." Then Dr. Zhuo started talking eloquently again. At the same time, he mentioned that vinegar and licorice can also play a role in detoxification. "It''s no wonder that there are no traces of poisoning when I check my pulse now." Uncle Yuan didn''t come to hear what he said. He heard a lot, and the conclusion was that he had indeed been seriously ill, and the toxicity might have been discovered and resolved quickly. Therefore, Uncle Yuan asked Dr. Zhuo to be sent back to Zhuo''s Mansion, and then he returned to Yuan''s Mansion to resume his life. Yuan Shangshu frowned deeply when he learned that. In the end, I just thought Qin Chi was really poisoned, but luckily he didn''t die. At this time, the Yuan Mansion was mainly dealing with the Yang family, and Yuan Shangshu focused most of his attention on the Yang family. However, Yuan Shangshu thought that reporting to the official could solve the rumors and the Yuan family could take a breather for the time being. Unexpectedly, the children of the Yuan family got into trouble one after another. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! One after another was arrested and imprisoned. For crimes, please refer to the Bactrian Code. As for the crimes listed above, except for a few serious crimes of confiscating families and exterminating clans, they committed almost all of them. What hit Yuan Shangshu the most was that members of the Yuan family who entered the court as officials were not immune. Corruption, bribery, dereliction of duty, etc. were caught one by one at such a speed that even the governor could not react. He had the impression that he had just received a report from Yuan Shangshu. Not even a single slander case has been uncovered. Another pile of cases came to the Yuan family. He didn''t dare to try so many cases by himself, and he couldn''t handle them, so he quickly wrote a memorial. "Tsk, tsk, the Yuan family hasn''t even cleaned their own shit, yet they still dare to mess with the Yang family? That''s it, you can''t steal the chicken but lose the rice." Things are breaking out one after another, and there must be someone behind the scenes. Many people sit back and watch. Some people even took the trouble to investigate who was behind it. The person behind it was so generous that everyone pushed back against the wall. Qin Chi received the news, "More than one person took action." "My lord, tell me." Song Jin asked curiously. "I can''t tell. This is just my personal speculation. It is impossible for one party to find out so much evidence of the Yuan family''s crimes in such a short period of time." Qin Chi felt that this situation was not good and was not what he wanted to see. What they want to deal with is the Yang family! Song Jin then said thoughtfully: "My lord, does the Yuan family know that the Yang family and Admiral Feng are colluding? The Liu family''s case is an opportunity. The Yuan family can expose it and we can reap the benefits." "Already preparing." Qin Chi now needs to hide his strength and bide his time. At this time, the Yuan family had also received clues early. Yuan Shangshu''s counterattack against the Yang family came very quickly. That night, he wrote a secret memorial and sent it directly to Emperor Ming Cheng, still suing Yang Ge. The crime is to form a party for personal gain. The content of the excerpt focuses on the collusion between Mr. Yang Ge and the **** Feng Admiral. The case of Uncle Liu is mentioned in it. Finally, it is proved that the children of the Yuan family became prisoners overnight, which shows that Mr. Yang has long had power behind his back. , for fear of being disloyal. These are a bit strong words. But it is unreasonable to say that reaching three points is an essential skill for civil servants. After decades of ups and downs in officialdom, Yuan Shangshu''s writings are concise, concise, and every word is precious. To put it simply, words turn into swords, and the sword is deadly! When it comes to guessing the emperor''s heart, Yuan Shangshu dares to say that he is second, and no one dares to say that he is first. "Father, is this really useful? We have no evidence." Uncle Yuan was so anxious that half of his hair had turned gray recently. "Will Your Majesty say you are being arrogant?" "I don''t need His Majesty''s belief." Yuan Shangshu even wanted to say that no evidence was needed, "As long as His Majesty sees this secret memorial, he will definitely suspect the Yang family and take the initiative to investigate." Then the evidence will be there! Chapter 326 Fourth grade respectful person Chapter 326 The fourth grade respectful person Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty read Yuan Shangshu''s secret memorial. After seeing it, his expression remained unchanged. No one could guess what he was thinking, but the eunuchs and maids serving in front of the emperor had become more and more cautious in the past few days. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty placed the secret memorial in the imperial cabinet. There is more than one secret note on the case. He has seen everything happening between the Yang family and the Yuan family. It''s just that he never knew that these people were so capable. In just a few days, illegal things surfaced one after another, pulling out the carrots and bringing out the mud, and more and more people were involved. The fight between the two ministers involved half of the court. After careful observation, Emperor Mingcheng found that there were not many innocent people. Qin Qi''an was not very pleasing to his eyes at first, but after contrast, he was a breath of fresh air. Therefore, he took out a memorial from the cabinet asking for merit, which was exactly the matter of meritorious service and reward after the Taihu disaster relief. With one stroke of the pen, he wrote the word "accurate". Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty said: "Qin Qi''an''s wife also contributed to the disaster relief in Taihu Lake. It seems that he has not yet applied for a title for his wife. This time, he will be granted a fourth-grade honorary title, so as not to wait for him to go to Dali Temple to take up a post and have to apply for the title again. "Your Majesty is so kind to your ministers." The old **** on the side complimented. A smile finally appeared on Emperor Mingcheng''s face, "I am not an emperor who treats his ministers harshly." The waiter who heard next to him quickly responded. And those who often pay attention to the movements in the palace are especially dumbfounded. When the Yuan and Yang families were fighting in full swing, Emperor Ming Cheng was as stable as a mountain and showed no intention of getting involved. He even had the mood to give Qin Qi''an''s wife a title. In fact, Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty not only awarded rewards to the Qin family, but also other people who went to Taihu Lake. Just in the eyes of outsiders. Qin Chi is already a conspicuous person. If there is any disturbance, everyone will notice him first. Officials from the Ministry of Rites and the **** in charge of rituals came to the Qin family with the imperial edict. Qin Chi was rewarded with some gold, silver, jewelry and jade, and the most important thing was to read out Song Jin''s imperial edict. When issuing imperial edicts, certain ceremonies and etiquette are usually held to show solemnity and formality. Therefore, after bathing and burning incense, the incense table should be arranged and so on. Song Jin knelt down with a big belly. After receiving the imperial edict and the imperial edict, the **** in charge of ceremony said quickly: "Song Gong is a twin, please get up quickly." "Thank you, father-in-law, for being considerate of my wife''s inconvenience. Uncle Li is here to wish father-in-law a happy occasion." Qin Chi helped Song Jin stand up while asking Old Li Tou to reward him with silver. Old Li Tou had already prepared it. He stuffed a big red envelope into the **** who announced the decree, followed by the officials from the Ministry of Rites, and then the accompanying officials and young eunuchs. Everyone was very happy to get the silver reward and congratulated Qin Chi and Song Jin one after another. The group of people took their leave. When leaving, there was a young **** walking at the end. He seemed to be tripped by something as he passed by Old Man Hong. He stumbled and almost fell. Fortunately, Old Man Hong caught him in time. The young **** thanked Old Man Hong. After that, he quickly left Qin''s house. This is how it seems to outsiders. In fact, the little **** took the opportunity to stuff something into Old Man Hong, and his actions were extremely covert. Old Man Hong put away the things without leaving a trace, his expression did not change at all. Wait to get rid of the people watching the fun outside. The Qin family then closed the door and still thanked guests behind closed doors. The people watching the excitement outside were still unsatisfied. They walked a little further away and gathered together to talk: "Is something good happening to the Qin family again?" "That''s right, it''s your majesty''s conferment. Madam Qin is really enviable. The man in her family has been an official for only a short time, and he is already a fourth-grade honorable person. The one in my family has not even reached the fifth grade." A man watched the fun. My aunt is so sour. A woman next to her glanced at her and said, "Come on, we don''t have that fate." "It can''t be compared, it can''t be compared." Another well-dressed woman said, then she put her hand on the arm of the maid next to her and walked away with her head held high. How can the neighbors say that the person involved did not know about it. Qin Chi and Song Jin first enshrined the imperial edict. Only then returned to the room. Song Jin looked at the imperial edict with curiosity. The imperial edict marked "respectful people". Only the wives of first- and second-rank officials can be called "Madam", and their aunts are called "Tai Fu". The third-rank official is a lady, the fourth-rank official is a respectful person, the fifth-rank official is pleasant, the sixth-rank official is Anren, and the seventh-rank official is below. It''s a Ruren. Those who have no seal or rank are called "ladies". Qin Chi had not applied for the title before. In addition to not having made any achievements, he was also worried about the government''s review. Now that he has been granted the title by imperial decree, he skipped the review step. His previous worries are no longer a problem. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Yinlong came in with a basin of water and said, "Little miss, come and wash your face first to get rid of that strange thing on your face." "Okay, Aunt Long." Song Jin had never thought about wearing ugly makeup when she was pregnant. After the imperial decree came, if you wanted to see outsiders, you hurriedly went there, which was done out of necessity. Yinlong waited on the side for Song Jin to wash his face. Qin Chi watched from the side, and after she finished washing, he said, "Do you want Mr. Jing to see if these things will hurt the fetus?" "Don''t worry if it takes a short time." Song Jin himself knows some pharmacology, and with Yinlong here, "I won''t bother Mr. Jing with this little thing. I heard that he has been studying the prescriptions prescribed by Dr. Zhuo all day long." Qin Chi suddenly felt relaxed. Seeing the smile on her face, he couldn''t help but joke: "I haven''t congratulated you yet, Madam. She has become a fourth-grade concubine. Her rank is higher than my husband-in-law." "hehe." Song Jin covered her mouth with a handkerchief and snickered, "It''s thanks to my husband''s blessing." "This has nothing to do with me. It is because of my righteousness that my wife donated the reward from the palace to the victims of the Taihu Lake disaster. Your Majesty saw it." Qin Chi said seriously. Song Jin was rarely embarrassed, "What am I? I''m just borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha." "My wife is humble." Qin Chi had a different idea, "When it comes to Taihu disaster relief, if we really want to talk about credit, my wife should take the first credit. Not to mention that you sold grain to the government at a low price and saved countless people, but my wife did this anonymously. I I cant give you credit for that donation. If my wife hadnt gone to the Household Department to donate, the material preparation would not have gone so smoothly. Song Jin knew this was true. But it''s always a bit embarrassing to be praised openly like this. Qin Chi added: "It''s just that the lady''s contribution cannot be given openly, that''s why she is awarded the title today." Otherwise, there were many donors, and only Song Jin benefited, and others would definitely have objections. Dont worry about scarcity but inequality. Therefore, when the cabinet was planning to award the memorial, there was no name named Song Jin. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty also knew this. This is why Song Jin was given the imperial title, which is reasonable in the eyes of outsiders. The only thing that was a bit out of line was that Emperor Ming Cheng conferred Song Jin as a fourth-grade honorable person in advance, instead of Qin Qi''an''s current fifth-grade honorary title. Official position. It can also be seen from this point. Qin Qi''an''s appointment as Shaoqing of Dali Temple is secure. The host family is very happy today. Each person has received a reward of one or two silver coins, and they will add food in the evening. After everyone was full of wine and food, they went to have a rest. Chapter 327 Should the Yang family die? Chapter 327 Should the Yang family die? In the study, Old Man Hong handed Qin Chi a secret letter. It''s a secret message from the little **** Sai. Qin Chi asked people to keep an eye on the Yuan and Yang families. Old Ghost Yuan suddenly received a secret memorial, especially since his Yuan family was besieged on all sides, and when the building was about to collapse, this secret memorial must be very crucial. Qin Chi wanted to know the content. But it is not easy to know such things in the palace. Unexpectedly, the secret letter handed over by Old Man Hong was exactly the content of Old Ghost Yuan''s secret message. "This Yuan Shangshu should not be underestimated." Qin Chi thought that there was no possibility of the Yuan family turning over, "His move is really poisonous." The most taboo and disgusting thing for emperors has always been for officials below to form cliques for personal gain. The Yuan family was blocked. The one who is having a dispute with the Yuan family is the Yang family. The Yuan family is so miserable, most people will believe it if it is said to be the work of the Yang family. However, who has ever seen such a powerful Yang family? At the same time, the Yang family attracted the fear of others. What would Emperor Ming Cheng think? Old Man Hong nodded in agreement, "Old Ghost Yuan has never been a good person. If he insists on dragging him to be buried with the Yang family, the Yang family will not be able to please him. You must know that there is still one incarcerated in Xingbu Prison." After speaking, Old Man Hong glanced at Qin Chi vaguely. The future life is terrible, but he doesn''t say it. Who among the outside world would know that the person driving all this behind the scenes is actually the young man with cold eyebrows in front of him. There was no Qin Chi to disrupt the situation. It is estimated that the Yang and Yuan families are still in conflict with each other. Qin Chi folded up the secret letter and stretched it over the oil lamp on the desk. A small flame lit the letter paper. After two-thirds of it was burned, he threw it into the brazier at his feet. "It is suspected that someone from the former prince is helping behind the Yang family." Qin Chi thought of the master behind Mr. Yang Ge, "The other party will not let anything happen to the Yang family easily. Uncle Hong, there must be people who come out to help the Yang family this time. The power of the former prince. How much is yet to be determined. Qin Chi handed over the investigation to Old Man Hong. After some discussion. Qin Chi added: "I want to take my wife back to Huizhou." "Madam, it''s not appropriate for you to travel and travel." Old Man Hong disagreed. Qin Chi sighed, "I can''t stay in the capital for too long. We can take our time on the road. However, we just need to let the people in the house make preparations and let people know. This way we can prepare for a few more days. It doesn''t mean that we can go immediately." Its time to set off. "My subordinate understands." Old Man Hong understood the implication. Just make a pretense and ask the servants to pack their bags and prepare things for the family to return home. Qin Chi didn''t know yet. The secret memorial written by Yuan Shang is not the least bit powerful. Admiral Feng was kneeling in front of Emperor Ming Cheng, his back wet with sweat, and large beads of sweat dripped from his forehead. Not only did he not dare to reach out to wipe the sweat, he did not even dare to move. "You are quite capable." Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty sneered, "With just one sentence, the governor of Shuntian Mansion can change the place where the prisoners were originally assigned to work. Why don''t I know when I gave you such a right?" "Your Majesty, spare my life. It was my fault." Admiral Feng turned pale with fright and kowtowed repeatedly. Emperor Mingcheng asked again: "Who is behind you?" "Your Majesty, this servant is yours. I have always been loyal to Your Majesty. This time, I was temporarily obsessed and thought it was just a change of working place. It is not a big deal and I can get a lot of benefits..." Admiral Feng could not continue. A hard object hit his forehead, causing him to scream in agony. The next moment, it was a **** head. It was Emperor Ming Cheng who grabbed the ruler on the desk and smashed it out, "Tell me the truth." "Your Majesty, spare your life! What I told you is the truth. I am just a little greedy for money. I have never betrayed Your Majesty. I would rather die than betray Your Majesty." Admiral Feng kowtowed desperately and begged for mercy. While begging for mercy, he also said, "This slave has always been loyal to Your Majesty. Your Majesty can learn from the sun and the moon." "roll!" Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty raised his hand and said, "Throw him into the imperial prison." The Jinyi guards who were standing by all responded, and two of them stepped forward, one on the left and the other on the right, and dragged Admiral Feng out. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! When Admiral Feng wanted to beg for mercy again, someone directly removed Admiral Feng''s chin. Suddenly, the hall became quiet. Admiral Feng''s secretive behavior made Emperor Ming Cheng even more suspicious of Mr. Yang Ge. On that day, Mr. Yang Ge entered the palace. His behavior was covert but did not escape the investigation of Jin Yiwei. If Admiral Feng speaks out generously about Mr. Yang Ge. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty was probably not so suspicious. According to the secret memorial, Yang Ge was always entrusted by Liu Bingzheng to help Liu Bingzheng''s son. Liu Bingzheng is the head of Taiyuan Hospital. Why didn''t he know that the Yang and Liu families had contacts before? "Taiyin Hospital, Chief of Ceremony, Yang Family? Ha!" Emperor Mingcheng sneered when he saw the news from Jin Yiwei''s investigation. In the past, the relationship with Concubine Shu, coupled with the fact that the Yang family had never sent any daughter of the Yang family to the palace, was very different from some ministers who desperately wanted to send their daughters or granddaughters to the palace, which made Emperor Ming Cheng trust Yang very much. The family is also very tolerant of the Yang family. The emergence of the sandalwood box. It broke Emperor Ming Cheng''s good impression of the Yang family. Emperor Ming Cheng didn''t do nothing. A few days ago, he ordered people to imprison the old palace servant who served Concubine Shu in a secluded place. Emperor Mingcheng retreated and interrogated him personally. A palace man committed suicide by hitting the wall. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty indifferently ordered his people to drag the corpse out, and ordered to find out the family members and tribesmen of the deceased and execute them all. This move shocked the people behind, and they no longer dared to hide anything. Concubine Shu''s four eldest maids have been buried. There are only a few people who are still alive today who know about it, but one of them, an old palace man who tended flowers and plants, had seen Concubine Shu standing under the peach blossom tree several times, feeling depressed. Another palace servant said that Concubine Shu was difficult to take care of and had a gloomy and unstable temper. When she was angry, she would close the door and beat and scold the palace maid. He never hits people in the face, but only hits them in places where no one else can see him. Punishing people to kneel down is never done outside, but instead they are made to kneel inside the house with a bowl of water on their hands. You can no longer sprinkle water, but if you sprinkle it once, you will be whipped. The palace people knew that they would die today, so they had no scruples about it. Emperor Ming Cheng knew the answer. All the palace servants who had served Concubine Shu were put to death. As if he didn''t know anything, Emperor Mingcheng continued to rest as usual. He was determined to clean up the Yang family, and he would not accuse Concubine Shu of having an adulterer. This was related to the man''s face. "I never knew that the Yang family would be so bold." Emperor Mingcheng''s slightly cruel words made all the eunuchs and maids in the palace lower their heads. Emperor Mingcheng asked again: "Jixiang, tell me, should the Yang family die?" Ji Xiang knelt down in fear, "To reply to Your Majesty, I don''t understand this. I only know that this world belongs to Your Majesty, and you have the final say on how things should be." "Yes, I have the final say." Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty threw the seal of the Supervisor of Ceremonies that he had taken back from Admiral Feng to Ji Xiang, "Take it, you will be the Supervisor of the Supervisor of Ceremonies from now on." Jixiang received the gift from heaven and was stunned for a moment before thanking the emperor for his kindness. Chapter 328 Imprisonment Chapter 328: Imprisonment Yang Mansion, a remote courtyard. The courtyard looks in disrepair from the outside. It is covered with weeds and moss, and there is a pile of broken furniture in the corner. Half of the main house collapsed, and there were several holes in the roof tiles of the east and west wings, making it uninhabitable. Only a small room in the corner was still intact. The mansions of powerful people rarely have such dilapidated courtyards. It is somewhat reasonable for the Yang family to come from a family that is said to be noble and noble. In fact, there is a secret room under the only small room that is still good. Mr. Yang Ge was seeing someone inside. This person is Mr. Yan. "Thanks to Mr. Yan''s intervention this time, the crisis in our Yang family has been suppressed. When Xingbu sends people to investigate, my nephew Ling Yu can also be exonerated. At that time, I will ask him to come in person to thank Mr. Yan. You It''s like giving him a new life," Mr. Yang Ge said gratefully. Arrangements have been made for the provincial capital over there. When people from the Xing Department investigate, Yang Lingyu''s superior envoy when he was the magistrate of Huizhou will commit suicide in fear of crime. Before his death, he will leave a "suicide note" explaining his mistakes, including the case of the Song family of Huizhou Prefecture. When a person dies, it doesnt matter whether the suicide note is true or false. The most important thing is that someone has been blamed for the Song family''s case. Mr. Yan said politely: "Mr. Yang Ge, there is no need to be like this. We are all serving the Lord, and we should be on guard to help each other. If you are in trouble, we will definitely not sit idly by and ignore it." The Yang family is an important part of their plan. Without Mr. Yang Ge, the impact would be considerable. In recent years, Mr. Yang Ge has claimed to be a clean figure, and he will definitely not do anything to form a party for personal gain. If he wins a high reputation, he will also lose some advantages. Now the Yang family''s reputation is ruined. However, when Yang Lingyu''s charges are cleared, the other rumors will be self-defeating. If done properly, the Yang family''s reputation will be restored in contrast to the Yuan family''s infamous reputation. Yang Ge had long wanted to use the Yuan family as a stepping stone. "Now the Yang family seems to have the upper hand, but there are also disadvantages." Mr. Yan pointed out. Yang Gelao thought about it carefully and understood, "No one should care, it''s not my Yang family who came forward." "Oh, do you think others are noble and upright?" Mr. Yan glanced sideways at Mr. Yang Ge, "It doesn''t matter if we can''t find any evidence. People will still suspect that the Yang family did it. Not only the people outside will be suspicious, but I''m afraid the people in the palace will also be suspicious. Use the scandal of the Yuan family to suppress Spreading rumors is not without its drawbacks. It makes people anxious, and the Yuan family can do anything. " "It''s already a life-and-death situation, why do we still want to show mercy? Even if I let the Yuan family go this time, the Yuan family may not let me go. Just think about Ling Yu''s case." Mr. Yang Ge was worried. He''s always had a bad feeling lately. Otherwise, he would not find Mr. Yan for help. Yang Yuelao said worriedly: "The Yang family seems to be being targeted, but I asked people to pay close attention and found nothing unusual. By the way, I heard that something happened to Changchun Palace?" Mr. Yan thought about what happened in the palace, and said thoughtfully: "You mean what happened in the Changchun Palace Garden? A wooden box was dug out in the garden. The box got into the hands of Emperor Mingcheng, and it contained the uninvited Chu. But then Emperor Mingcheng put it in the hands of Emperor Mingcheng. The palace servants who had served Concubine Shu were called to one place, and then they all disappeared. " "Is this box related to my eldest daughter?" Mr. Yang Ge just learned about the box, and then asked, "Could the things in the box be my eldest daughter''s relics?" "Nine times out of ten, we still don''t know whether it''s good or bad." Mr. Yan analyzed it. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty had a different attitude. Perhaps during this period, Emperor Ming Cheng''s routine was as usual. No one was killed in Changchun Palace that night, but an **** died in Leng Palace. Mr. Yan added: "I will let people continue to pay attention to this matter. You stay well in the house, read more and have fun, teach the younger people in your family, and do something beautiful for outsiders to see." This is to let Yang Ge entertain himself and show off the character that belongs to the literati. Even in the face of difficulties, he can still be calm and contented with his grandson. When it spreads to the outside, it is considered high-spirited and upright. The family tradition of the Yang family will be even better. If Mr. Yang Ge made people feel like he was jumping over the wall because of external matters, he would be at a disadvantage. The two discussed for half an hour. Only then did Mr. Yang Ge avoid the sight of people in the mansion and returned to the front yard. Just about to step into the moon gate of his courtyard. A person arrives in a hurry. Elder Yang Ge looked at the person coming, it was his confidant Chang Sui, "What''s the matter that''s so anxious?" "Master, it''s not good." Chang Sui said anxiously. Just as he was about to open his mouth, he looked around and saw no one. Then he approached Mr. Yang Ge and whispered in his ear: "I just received the latest news. Admiral Feng was sent to prison by His Majesty." ! And the uncle of the Liu family was imprisoned again." "What''s going on?" Mr. Yang Ge was shocked. Chang Sui reported: "Someone saw the Liu family uncle acting arrogant in the quarry. He had to be served like an uncle. Then the person spread the word and asked if he could come to such a service." The person I bumped into happened to be a literary man. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The scholar was a little bit sour, and when he told the public, many people started making trouble. The governor sent people to investigate and found out that it was the Liu family who bribed the person in charge of the quarry, and a group of people involved in the quarry had been arrested. Mr. Yang Ge didn''t care about the uncle of the Liu family at all. He glared at Chang Sui, lowered his voice and gritted his teeth and asked, "I''m asking about Admiral Feng''s matter!" Chang Sui shook his head, "I will report to you as soon as I receive the news." "Okay, go check it out quickly." Mr. Yang Ge quickly sent people to investigate. Then, he could remain calm on the outside, but inside he was like an ant on a hot pot. Something happened to Admiral Feng? This is something Mr. Yang Ge never thought of. Why did Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty imprison people in prison at this time? The imperial prison mainly held serious criminals of the imperial court and was in charge of Jinyiwei. The torture in prison was extremely cruel, and many prisoners could not bear it and died. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty sent Admiral Feng to prison, which meant that he did not want Admiral Feng to get out of prison alive. It is unknown how much Jin Yiwei can dig out of Admiral Feng''s mouth. What Yang Ge Lao fears most is that Jin Yiwei digs out things that are not conducive to him from Admiral Feng''s mouth. But, there is still the same question, when does nothing happen, and why does it happen at this time? Something happened to Changchun Palace? Something happened to the Liu family? Are the three events related? Mr. Yang Ge asked himself that he always thinks twice before acting, and is so cautious that he will never fall into any trap. The last time he helped Liu Yuanshi, he was very demanding, and Liu Yuanshi''s existence was very important. Returning to the study, Mr. Yang Ge sat quietly for a long time. Then, whatever happened. Mr. Yang Ge wrote a book about his resignation and sent it to the palace for those who wanted to retire. This move is not really about resigning. It''s a kind of temptation. Use this matter to test Emperor Ming Cheng''s attitude. Chapter 329 Return to hometown to visit relatives Chapter 329 Returning to hometown to visit relatives Almost at the same time. Cuihua Hutong, Qin''s house. "Admiral Feng was sent to prison?" Qin Chi was very surprised when he heard the news, "You took action so soon?" Among the clues Qin Chi investigated, Admiral Feng had a close relationship with Mr. Yang Ge. He guessed that Admiral Feng was probably an important chess piece of the former prince. Qin Chi thought about what to do next. "Sir, should we go to the prison to inquire?" Qin Yi asked tentatively. "How many lives do you have to dare to sneak into the imperial prison?" Qin Chi knew that this matter was very dangerous and would probably cost people. He was unhappy when he thought that it would cost people. He didn''t necessarily want to investigate the matter. "Don''t act rashly without my instructions." "Yes, sir." Qin Yi retreated. Song Jin, who was listening quietly on the side, had the opportunity to say: "Yang Ge should be anxious." "He should also have received the news, but I don''t know. Did he know about the Yuan family''s impeachment? If he knew, it would be a good show." Qin Chi and Song Jin analyzed the current situation, "On the surface, the Yang family has the upper hand, but in fact it is not much better than the Yuan family. The Yang family''s advantage is probably due to another owner, and this owner is quite capable. " This time, Yuan''s family members were arrested one after another. Officials in the six ministries, as well as people in the military camp, all took action against the Yuan family. Most of the evidence that the Yuan family broke the law was provided by the Yuan family''s superiors or superiors. What does this mean? This shows that the former prince''s influence has penetrated the entire court, including the army. The more Qin Chi thought about it, the more he became afraid. "Madam, I''m going back to Huizhou for a wedding in a few days. Are you ready? Things are going more smoothly than I expected, or we can leave Beijing early." Qin Chi did not expect Emperor Ming Cheng to be very cooperative. This is probably a common problem among emperors. They are most afraid of ministers forming cliques for personal gain. Song Jin had known that he would go back to visit relatives, "To be honest, I don''t want to leave Beijing at this time. Rather than returning to Huizhou at this time, I want to know the fate of my enemy as soon as possible." "We have received a reward. If we don''t leave, we will be beaten." "Eye punch?" "Before, I stayed behind closed doors. It could be said that I was waiting for the reward from the court. Now, in the past few days, it could be said that I was preparing to return to my hometown. Perhaps I could also use the excuse that my wife is pregnant to say that you should not travel and travel. However, This is a rare opportunity to visit my hometown and visit relatives. If I miss this time, I dont know when the next time will be. Qin Chi was also troubled. Song Jin was more than seven months pregnant and was still more than two months away from giving birth. It was impossible to go back after giving birth. However, in order to prevent Song Jin from being tired, Qin Chi had decided to slow down the trip and leave by boat when necessary. Song Jin happened to not get seasick. Although the boat ride takes longer, it is much more comfortable than the carriage ride. If you feel uncomfortable during the exercise, you can stop and rest at any time. With Doctor Jing, Po Wen and others accompanying him, he was not afraid of any accidents. Song Jin also thought of these situations and said, "I have nothing to prepare. Aunt Long has already prepared what I need." Even if I have to go back to Huizhou. She is also pregnant with Liujia, so those who want to take care of her must take enough. Wen Po, who was invited earlier, agreed with the other party whether he wanted to go on a long journey with him. If he didn''t want to go, he would take the money and send him home. If he followed, he would be rewarded with a silver reward. It can be said that this reward was something Wen Po could not earn even after working hard to deliver babies for two or three years. As soon as they heard the amount of money, the two stable ladies immediately said they would follow. This is better. Not all the servants in the mansion will follow back to Huizhou. Old Man Hong stayed behind to guard the house, but in fact he had other things to do and would not leave Beijing easily. In order to leave someone to cook and wash for Old Man Hong, Qin Chi also stayed with Mrs. Pan and Chef Feng. Secondly, Qin Chi saw the maid Xiaofu. Qin Chi simply let Xiao Fu stay and let her clean the wing in the backyard when she had time. Doctor Jing''s master and apprentice want to follow. In fact, Doctor Jing could just follow him, but his apprentice was worried and insisted on following him back to Huizhou. Song Jinzai asked about the old friend Dr. Jing asked for help, "Who is taking care of that person now?" "His symptoms of stroke have improved a lot and he has no problems in his daily life. He has returned to live in Fengning Hutong. His son and wife were arrested, but he still has a grandson." The person who answered Song Jin was Mu Ting. Mu Ting added: "Doctor Jing asked shopkeeper Song to visit him regularly and send him medicine, food, etc." Song Jin just asked and didn''t mean anything else. After what happened at the drug store, Doctor Jing was a little confused about how to face his old friend. Because of his temporary kindness, he almost got in trouble with the people at the drug store and Song Jin. Song Jin doesn''t blame him for this matter. He has himself to blame. Therefore, when his old friend asked to go home, Dr. Jing did not stop him. He went to see him every once in a while, checked his pulse and changed his medicine prescription. After nursing him for a long time, he has recovered a lot. Mu Ting didn''t speak when she saw Song Jin, and she didn''t speak either. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi came in wearing casual clothes. He went out to see Lu Yanji today, told him that he was going home to visit relatives, and asked him if he had any letters from home to take back. Lu Yanji was naturally delighted. He immediately said yes and would deliver it to his house later. Everyone in the alley sees the comings and goings of the Qin family. It can be said that the person with the highest official position in Cuihua Hutong is now Qin Chi. Generally, most of the officials living in this alley before Qin Chi came here. It is below the sixth grade, not even the fifth grade. On this day, the weather was sunny. Early in the morning, there were several carriages parked in front of Qin''s house. Things were constantly being moved out of Qin''s house and put into the carriage, and soon they were all piled up in the carriage. Except for people''s cars. Qin Chi held Song Jin''s arm and went out. When Song Jin came out, she was wearing a curtain hat. The neighbors standing in the distance only knew she was her, but their face could not be seen clearly. Moreover, Song Jin immediately got on the carriage when he came out. Qin Chi whispered to the driver, Old Li Tou, then stepped on the shaft of the car and was about to bend down and get into the car. "Master Qin, are you going back to your hometown to visit your relatives?" A man''s voice came from the door of Dong''s house. Qin Chi paused for a moment and looked along the sound. It was Dong Xingde who was smiling. When he first saw this person, Qin Chi was stunned for a moment. The gloominess on Dong Xingde''s body disappeared, and his whole person seemed to have been reborn. He heard that he had been transferred to Dali Temple as an official not long ago. From now on, he will still be his colleague. Qin Chi quickly regained his composure and bowed politely to Dong Xingde: "Master Dong, I''m disrespectful." "You''re welcome, you''re welcome." Dong Xingde returned the gift with his hand, "I wish you a safe journey." "With your good words, goodbye." "Goodbye." The two waved goodbye. Qin Chi turned around and got into the car easily. The group set off and left Beijing. (End of chapter) Chapter 330 Qin Chi’s selfishness Chapter 330 Qin Chis selfishness A team of horse-drawn carriages drove slowly along the official road. The carriage in the middle looks unremarkable on the surface, but if you look closely, you will find that the body is made of fine mahogany. The interior of the car is covered with soft carpets, which are warm and delicate to the touch. The backrest is engraved with birds and animals, which are lifelike, as if they will jump out of the wooden restraints at any time and spread their wings to fly high. The interior of the carriage is spacious, and a palace lantern hangs from the top, emitting soft yellow light, reflecting the golden incense burner in the carriage and emitting curls of smoke. Several well-bound books were scattered casually on the small table, next to a small teapot, which was exuding a faint scent of floral tea. There was a brocade cloak placed on the soft couch. It was gorgeous and heavy. The corner of the cloak was embroidered with a lifelike peony, and there seemed to be dewdrops between the petals. Occasionally, the sound of horse hooves and rolling wheels could be heard outside the car window, but these did not affect the quiet and comfortable atmosphere inside the car at all. In the corner of the carriage, Qin Chi was holding a book and flipping through it. Occasionally, he raised his head and glanced at Song Jin, who was so comfortable that he was about to fall asleep, with a satisfied smile on his lips. This is the carriage he specially arranged. Just to make her feel comfortable on the way, it seems to be working well so far. Had a nap on the carriage. It was almost noon when Song Jin woke up. The team stopped and settled in a village. "Ms. sir, what are you..." Song Jin saw Old Uncle Li and others moving things. Qin Chi smiled and said: "Stop here and rest for an hour." "This is just the beginning." Song Jin wanted to say that he didn''t feel tired and didn''t need to rest. Qin Chi refused to question and insisted on taking a break at noon. Song Jin joked: "The way you are going, you won''t be able to return to Huizhou in two months." "You are not pressed for time, so walk slowly and treat it as if you are out for fun." Qin Chi didn''t say outside that she didn''t want to see the follow-up of the Yuan Yang family. If she walked slower, she could pay attention to the affairs in the capital in time. He supported Song Jin and walked into Zhuangzi. We arrived at an elegant and clean wing. He leaned close to Song Jin''s ear and whispered: "I heard that Mr. Yang Ge handed over the resignation letter." "Is he retreating in order to advance?" Song Jin guessed it almost without thinking. Qin Chi thought to himself that the lady really thought of the same thing as him, "Your Majesty suppressed the discount." This was not approved. Song Jin looked puzzled and asked, "What do you think, Your Majesty?" "I guess it''s not exciting enough?" Qin Chi''s previous impressions of Emperor Mingcheng mostly came from the knowledge of his elders, so his initial impression was not good. After all, few elders had a good impression of Emperor Mingcheng. Of course, the grandfather, whom he had never met before, had a bad impression of him. He didn''t know what Emperor Ming Cheng''s attitude was. Among the people he had been in contact with since childhood, such as Lao Li Tou, Lao Huo and Shopkeeper Tao, they had a bad impression of the emperor. Three of them had served as soldiers in the northwest. It was very hard to be a soldier in the northwest. The imperial court often deducted military pay, food and grass, etc. Some soldiers did not die on the battlefield, but died of freezing and starvation. It was strange that this made them favor the emperor. Over time, Qin Chi was affected. Coupled with the experiences of his maternal grandfather''s family and his mother, Qin Chi''s impression of Emperor Ming Cheng became even worse. He planned to become Emperor Ming. According to his assumptions, he would not be able to tolerate the Yang family. Song Jin didn''t know the situation as well as Qin Chi, but he still had some ideas, "Do you want my husband to add trouble to the Yang family again?" "How do you say this?" Qin Chi looked at her questioningly. Song Jin lowered his voice and said: "Jianning Liu family, Yang Lingyu''s wife''s surname is Liu." "The Liu family is stationed in the army and cannot be exposed." Qin Chi said something that surprised Song Jin. As long as the matter is exposed. The Yang family can''t escape no matter what. He knew that revenge would be faster this way, but Qin Chi was useless? Qin Chi was silent for a long time, opened his mouth, and finally choked out a sentence: "A single move can affect the whole body. Jianning is not only the garrison and the yamen. It is ostensibly under the control of the imperial court, but in fact it is all under the control of the Liu family." You can rise up at any time." "Is it so serious?" Song Jin was shocked. Qin Chining nodded, "The situation is not only in Jianning, I suspect that it is the same in other nearby state capitals. The guards in the state capitals in the central and central regions have always had the problem of empty pay. Only in Zhejiang, the number is full, and troops are often deployed. Set up the formation. What''s more, Qin Chi has selfish motives, which are unspeakable selfish motives. Not only did he fail to report the Yang family''s affairs to the court, he even concealed the existence of the former prince and Mr. Yan. Qin Chi saw Song Jin''s expression and knew she was suspicious. My wife is so smart, she must have guessed something. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Come to think of it! If Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty knew about the Jianning Liu family, he should have taken action long ago. Qin Chi will bring out the evidence, and when will it be exposed, he has to wait for the right time. After Zhuangzi rested. The group of people continued their journey, heading towards Zhangjiawan, the water transport terminal. What Qin Chi meant was to take a big boat for a short distance. If the boat was annoying and then change to the land route, everything would be based on Song Jin''s situation. Whatever makes you feel comfortable. Whenever the carriage bumps, the hanging palace lantern will sway gently, projecting a slightly swaying halo of light, like flowing amber, adding a bit of liveliness and warmth to the interior of the carriage. Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves came from behind. He stopped when he got close, and then Qin Ba''s voice came from the left side of the car window: "Sir, there is something urgent." Qin Chi opened the car window and received the secret letter handed in from Qin Ba through the car window. When he read the content of the letter, his expression changed slightly, "The Yang family is very clever!" "What happened?" Song Jin looked at the letter in his hand. Qin Chi handed the letter to Song Jin. Song Jin took it and looked down. The general content is that one of Yang Lingyu''s original bosses, a certain chief envoy, was made a scapegoat and committed suicide by taking poison the day before the officials appointed by the imperial court to investigate arrived. Before his death, he knew that he had sinned deeply and confessed his crime. The Song family''s case was brought to him. Not to mention Qin Chi''s anger, even Song Jin''s anger was rising, "These people simply have no law." "Wang''s law is just a sharp weapon." Qin Chi shouldn''t say anything to others. In fact, he didn''t say it in his heart, but he wouldn''t say it in front of Song Jin. The law is just a tool in Qin Chi''s hands. Otherwise, what he did would have killed him several times. Song Jin was in a very bad mood, "Are you just going to watch Yang Lingyu get away with it?" "He can''t get out of jail, don''t worry, madam." Qin Chi consoled him. Song Jin didn''t know why. Qin Chi continued: "Even if Yang Lingyu gets rid of the suspicion, he still cannot escape the blame. Because after the disappearance of the Song family, more than a dozen major cases occurred one after another, including 37 lives and nine people maimed." Yang Lingyu, who was the prefect at that time, did nothing, just because he wanted to get rid of his innocence. In the case of the Song family, according to the law, he could be ordered to confiscate his home and be executed. The current case is also sufficient for him to be executed. Song Jin heard that the hand holding the handkerchief trembled slightly. Qin Chi sat next to her and gently held her hand, "Believe me, he won''t survive." Chapter 331 He deserves to die Chapter 331 He deserves to die Arrive at Zhangjiawan. The carriage stopped in front of a house. This is where they will stay tonight. Qin Chi had someone come over to take care of things in advance, so the house was prepared with daily necessities, including rice, meat and vegetables. The wing room has also been cleaned, so you only need to bring your luggage and move in. However, before dinner, Qin Chi was called out for something, and Song Jin ate alone at home. He was thinking about something and had a bad appetite. He only ate a few bites of rice and vegetables. Yinlong said worriedly: "Little miss, don''t you eat more?" "No need." Song Jin shook his head. Yinlong said: "Then I will prepare a midnight snack for you later." "Thank you Aunt Long." Song Jin did not refuse her kindness. On the contrary, Yinlong sat aside and hesitated, "Little miss, aren''t you going to visit your grandfather''s house?" "ah?" Song Jin was stunned for a moment, "My grandma''s house?" When Yinlong saw Song Jin''s appearance, he knew that she had never thought about it, "Your maternal ancestor''s family''s ancestral home is here. It''s unknown where it is now, after all, so many years have passed." Song Jin shook his head and said: "There was no contact at first, and there will be no contact for the time being. Let''s wait until the situation stabilizes. Our current situation may seem beautiful, but in fact we are walking on thin ice." "Aren''t you happy that they are thinking about you?" Yinlong thought of the major case of the Song family in Huizhou that had been spreading in the capital a few days ago, "I think they should have heard about the Huizhou incident." "Then they probably thought something happened to me too." The Song Jin sisters were hastily sent away by Song''s father. Not many people knew about it. When they left, she saw a fire in the courtyard where she lived. She and Song Xiu were alive. I''m afraid even the rest of the Song family may not know. Father Song also took great pains to cover up their whereabouts. Song Jin saw that Yinlong seemed to have something to say, "Aunt Long, just say whatever you want to say, don''t hold it in your heart." "Your maternal grandfather, the Zhang family, seems to be working under the Governor of Water Transport." Yinlong knew that Song Jin owned a merchant ship, and her son Xing Lun had always been highly valued by Song Jin. "Last time, I overheard A Lun mention it at home, saying that the biggest expense of doing business is traveling on the road. , and also talked about water transportation, and said that people who manage things are getting greedy. Song Jin couldn''t help but frown after hearing this. In the past, she only knew that her maternal grandfather''s family was a Beijing official. She had never paid attention to the specific official. Now Yinlong tells her that her grandfather works for the Governor of Water Transport? Song Jin thought about her situation, and after pondering, she shook her head and said, "Aunt Long, it''s not suitable for me to recognize my grandfather''s family now. I will visit my grandfather''s house in person when the time comes." There was pity on Yinlong''s face. However, she did not force Song Jin to go. Song Jin knew what she was regretting, so he said: "Just because I won''t visit doesn''t mean that I can''t contact you. Later I will write a letter to report that you are safe and send it to Alan, and ask him to use the letter as an excuse when he comes over for business next time. Lets go to Grandmas house privately to test it out. "Hey, okay." Yinlong responded with a smile, "As long as I can be safe, then your grandma won''t have to worry about it. Back then, your grandpa and grandma loved your mother the most." "Then how did my mother marry into Huizhou Prefecture?" This is far away! Yinlong smiled and said: "The Zhang and Song families are family friends, and your parents'' marriage was a finger-to-tip marriage." This was the first time Song Jin heard about this. The two chatted a lot more, mostly Yinlong talking and Song Jin listening. What Yinlong said was all about his maternal grandfather''s family. Before Song''s mother got married, Yinlong was born in this family and was also in Zhangjia Mansion. grew up in. Song Jin remembers that when she was a child, her maternal grandfathers family would bring festive gifts to Huizhou, and her uncles would all bring carloads of things to her. Later, something happened to the Song family and they lost contact. In her previous life, Song Jin married into Qinjiagou and subconsciously did not want to contact her maternal grandfather''s family. I almost never even thought about coming back in this life. In Yinlong, it was six or seven years before she lost contact with her grandfather''s family, but in Song Jin, it was two lifetimes. What''s more, when it comes to the fleet, Song Jin has always used the pseudonym "Song Huaijin" when doing business outside. The household registration is also real. It originally belonged to a missing child of a branch of the Song family. Song Jin would not contact his maternal grandfathers family rashly. One is that she doesnt know the situation of her maternal grandfathers family. Secondly, I dont want to bring trouble to my grandfathers family. Not to mention that even if the Song family''s charges were cleared, it would still be a big problem, but Qin Chi''s life experience was also a problem. You must know that her mother-in-law, Li Shi, and Qin Chi have not dared to admit to He Lianpu openly! Being able to make Qin Chi cautious like this is nothing more than a matter of life and death. And the lives of the Song family are also in the hands of others! After Yinlong left. Song Jin sat and thought for a long time. She didn''t come back to her senses until Qin Chi came back. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! This made Qin Chi mistakenly think that Song Jin was thinking about Yang Lingyu''s problem again, so he gently sat on the chair next to her, poured himself a bowl of tea, and asked softly: "Do you really want Yang Lingyu to die that much?" "He deserves to die." Song Jin blurted out with hatred. Only when he said it did he realize that he had made a mistake. Song Jin smiled dryly and asked gently: "My husband is back, are you done with your work?" "When you are done with your work, you will come back immediately to accompany your wife." If someone else said this, he would probably feel that this job was a bit greasy, but when these words came out of Qin Chi''s mouth, his tone was calm and normal, as if he was stating a fact. Yang Lingyu has long been one of the people on Song Jin''s list of enemies who must be killed. Don''t look at her as if nothing happened. He just hid the hatred in his heart very deep. Qin Chi took a deep look at Song Jin. He didn''t say anything and waited for her to go back to her room to take a shower and get ready to rest. He called Qin Yi again, "You go back to Uncle Hong and ask him to do something. I think the way to kill the chief envoy is very clever, and I can arrange it for Yang Lingyu." Qin Yi obeyed the order and left. So, late that night. Xingbu prison. A jailer carried a lamp and came to the cell where Yang Lingyu was detained. He opened the cell door. Yang Lingyu woke up and quickly sat up. The jailer showed a flattering smile and placed the lamp between the two of them. In order to reassure Yang Lingyu, the jailer stepped back half a foot and said, "Master Yang, I have been ordered to deliver a message to you." "What are you preaching? Who asked you to preach it?" Yang Lingyu looked at this strange jailer with great vigilance. The jailer nodded and bowed and said: "Mr. Ge said that your former Shangguan Chief Envoy committed suicide by taking poison in his own office. Before his death, he wrote a suicide note and admitted that he was responsible for the case of the drug dealer Song." "really?" Yang Lingyu was overjoyed. Is this the uncle''s arrangement? The uncle really didn''t give up on him! Yang Lingyu was so excited that he didn''t notice the light smoke coming out of the lamp placed on the ground. The next moment, Yang Lingyu felt dizzy. When he realized something was wrong, he lost consciousness in an instant and fell to the ground. Chapter 332 Death of Yang Lingyu Chapter 332 Death of Yang Lingyu The next day, a big event happened in the capital. Yang Lingyu, who conspired to murder the Song family, a drug dealer in Huizhou, hanged himself in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment and left a **** confession before his death. The general meaning is that he made a big mistake in a moment of obsession, was ashamed of the cultivation of His Majesty and his family, and was willing to die to apologize. The blood letter was written by tearing off his prison clothes. Cloth strips are also used for hanging. Xingbu''s past investigations could not find any other clues. No one knew that a jailer had been here before. After doing these things, even the traces were wiped clean. "What did you say? Say it again!" Mr. Yang Ge was shocked when he heard about Yang Lingyu just after he got up from bed. The confidant said: "Sir, this is the news from the Ministry of Punishment early in the morning. It is said that it has been confirmed. Zuo Zuo has gone to see it. The person did die of suffocation. There was no trace of the second person at the scene." "Nonsense, impossible!" The officials sent by the Ministry of Punishment to Huizhou to investigate have not yet returned, so the fact that the chief envoy committed suicide by poisoning and was charged has not yet been reported back to the capital. Mr. Yang Ge had an argument with Yang Lingyu earlier and said he would find a way to exonerate him. Therefore, he firmly believed that Yang Lingyu would not commit suicide out of fear of crime. There must be a hidden secret in this! Mr. Yang Ge hurriedly put on his court clothes and said, "I want to enter the palace to meet the Holy Spirit." "Master, think twice!" Chang Sui hurriedly caught up and blocked him, "You are under grounding. Leaving the Yang Mansion rashly is tantamount to resisting the decree." When Yang Ge Lao was about to step out of the Yang Mansion, he paused. His face struggled and twisted. It took him a long time to regain his composure. He turned around and walked back, "Go back to the study and study the ink for me. I want to write a memorial." So, Mr. Yang Ge hurriedly wrote a memorial. The content was nothing more than a cry of injustice, stating that Yang Lingyu was innocent and would definitely not commit suicide in fear of guilt, and begged Emperor Ming Cheng to investigate the matter. Yang Ge doesn''t leave his house, so it''s okay to hand him a memorial. This memorial was quickly passed to Emperor Mingcheng. Emperor Mingcheng only read it once and then threw it to the Minister of Punishment aside, "Take a look, it was written by Yang Zhengkai." The Minister of Punishment opened the book and read it, "I had this idea before and went to check the scene myself. At that time, the cell where Yang Lingyu was located was locked, and there was no trace of the second person except him." "But Yang Zhengkai said he committed suicide?" "Mr. Yang Ge may not be able to accept the reality for a while." Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment behaved dignifiedly and was full of righteousness. "Not only did I see the scene, but according to the traces, Yang Lingyu tore open the prison clothes, bit his fingers and left a suicide note, and then went to the cell door. Hang yourself." All traces show. Yang Lingyu did hang himself. The Minister of Punishment added: "I have no suspicion of homicide. There are traces on the cloth strip that Yang Lingyu left when he tied the knot. One of his fingers was bitten and the blood stained the cloth strip. There are his **** fingerprints." , cant be wrong. If it was really a homicide. The murderer is too clever. Anyone who comes here to solve the case will find out that Yang Lingyu committed suicide. Emperor Mingcheng suddenly raised his lips and sneered, "I just received news that before the people you sent to Huizhou to investigate arrived, the chief envoy committed suicide by taking poison and left a suicide note to plead guilty. Do you think it is funny or not? In the same case, The two people involved also committed suicide out of fear of crime. This made Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment feel numb. In the same case, two officials committed suicide in fear of being convicted. The most ridiculous thing is that each of them admitted the crime. Who is the mastermind? Emperor Mingcheng also knew something, "The Yang family is quite capable. They even dare to kill the chief envoy. Hey, that guy deserves to die. He abused his power, took corruption and accepted bribes, but it is not the Yang family''s turn to take the blame." His sudden words shocked the Minister of Punishment, and then he meekly bowed his head and stopped talking. The Ministry of Punishments sent people to investigate openly. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty asked Jin Yiwei to make a secret visit. It is said that a nobleman in the capital wanted the Song family''s pharmacopoeia, but the Song family refused. It didn''t take long for something to happen. There was a force behind the scenes that was tyrannical and ignored the law. Anyone who inquired about the Song family would be intercepted and killed. Thirty-seven people died and nine were injured. As the prefect of Huizhou, Yang Lingyu not only failed to report it but also covered it up for the other party. How dare he say that he was not complicit? The first thing Emperor Ming Cheng valued was not human life, but the existence of such an unknown force, which acted blatantly in the name of a nobleman in the capital. Yang Lingyu protected the other party, which shows that if this force is not from the Yang family, it is related to the Yang family. The Yang family colluded. Think again about the forces targeting the Yuan family? Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty suddenly issued an order: "Send the order to the commander of the Jinyi Guards!" A **** stood up and took the order to go out. The Minister of Punishment shuddered. Your Majesty is about to make another big move! An hour later. Almost all the Jin Yiwei in the capital were dispatched to surround the Yang Mansion and the Liu family. The Jin Yiwei broke in directly, and the masters and servants of the house rushed to the place. The search and pat down begins again. Mr. Yang Ge didn''t even respond and was driven to the courtyard in front. When he saw Jin Yiwei coming to the door, he searched without saying a word. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Elder Yang Ge knew that the Yang family was in doom. Liu Bingzheng was originally on duty at the Imperial Hospital. When Jin Yiwei showed up, he was caught and put in jail. Without even an explanation, they went to search Liu''s home. The main search was Liu Bingzheng''s study. As long as it involved medical books, they were taken away by Jin Yiwei. There was also a mechanism in Liu Bingzheng''s study, and a secret room was found in which a large number of medical books were stored. "Take them all away!" The commander of the Jin Yiwei picked up one of the books and flipped through it. Turn to the last side. There was clearly a spot on it that had been daubed with ink. Picked up another book, it was in the same position, and the other books were similar. Needless to say, the ink is meant to cover up something. According to what he knew, the Song family''s family emblem seal would be on the last page of the Song family''s collection of books. He picked up one of the medical books and threw it to someone accompanying him, "Take it and find someone to find a way to see what the ink is covering." "Yes, sir." The man took the medical book and left in a hurry. Yuan Mansion. A servant hurriedly went to report to Yuan Shangshu. Yuan Shangshu has been very busy these days. Almost all the Piansheng clan members are locked in the prison of the Yamen. Their family members come to the door every day, crying and asking for help from the Yuan Mansion. He doesn''t like to show up, and he doesn''t want to show up either. Then let the female relatives at home entertain them. Doesnt Yuan Shangshu want to save him? think! But he was grounded and couldn''t leave the house. There was no movement from the secret memorial that was handed over. Yuan Shangshu almost thought that Emperor Ming Cheng wanted to protect the Yang family. He was almost desperate and mentally prepared to wait for death. A sudden turn of events today? ! "The Jinyi Guards are out? Is this serious?" Yuan Shangshu''s haggard face suddenly burst into surprise. When he heard the reporter''s affirmative answer, he laughed loudly and burst into tears, "Yang family! That old man Yang Zhengkai, you also have today! Hahahaha... " Chapter 333 Mr. Yang Ge was imprisoned Chapter 333 Mr. Yang Ge is in prison Mr. Yang Ge faced the commander of the Jinyi Guards. For a moment, nothing could be said. When he saw this person appear, Mr. Yang Ge knew that the person who gave the order was Emperor Ming Cheng. This man only obeyed the orders of Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. He was the most loyal dog raised by Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. He would bite anyone he was asked to bite, without any need for reasons or right or wrong. "What did our Yang family do wrong? What did we do wrong? What did we do wrong?!" Yang Ge was deeply saddened and burst into tears. Uncle Yang came up to support him, "Father, please don''t be too sad. I believe that Your Majesty will give justice to my Yang family." Others in the Yang family also have this idea. The Yang family''s family tradition has always been upright, and they are not just a bunch of people. Therefore, when the feared Jin Yiwei came up, some of the juniors were afraid, but they never despaired. Jin Yiwei guarded them with swords. All of them were expressionless and indifferent. Including the Commander, the biggest leader of Jinyiwei, he has cherished his words like gold since he broke into the Yang family. The search continues. It''s a pity that after searching for so long, nothing was found. This shows that Yang Ge is always an extremely cautious person. There were no secret rooms or secret compartments in his study. It looked like an ordinary person''s study, not even a single luxurious ornament was found. Don''t think it''s okay if you don''t find evidence. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty never only paid attention to sufficient evidence. In the end, Mr. Yang Ge was taken away by Jin Yiwei and imprisoned in Xingbu Prison. In the cell opposite him, Liu Bingzheng happened to be imprisoned. At this time, Liu Bingzheng was still wearing the official uniform of the Taiyuan Hospital. He was holding on to the wooden railing of the cell and asked in shock: "Mr. Yang Ge, are you..." Yang Gelao winked at him, then said with a bitter look on his face: "I don''t know either." He leaned against the wall and closed his eyes. There are still jailers standing outside. Whatever they say will be heard. Yang Gelao and Liu Bingzheng were imprisoned. The Liu family and the Yang family were still surrounded by Jinyi guards and did not evacuate. Medical books copied from the Liu family. Later, someone verified that the place covered by ink was the word "Song", which was the family emblem of the Song family in Huizhou. It stands to reason that Liu Bingzheng should have copied the medical book again and then destroyed the original, but the Song family''s family emblem The medical classics that have been handed down, including the paper, have been specially treated so that they will not rot for thousands of years and are not afraid of insect bites. Each one is worth thousands of dollars. Liu Bingzheng was reluctant to give up. The second is that he never took the Song family seriously. For Liu Bingzheng, Huizhou Song family is now a drug dealer, which is completely different from his Liu family. He is not afraid of the Song family coming to make trouble. What''s more, he has obliterated the Song family''s emblem. As long as he doesn''t admit it, who dares to say that it belongs to the Song family''s collection of books? When Mr. Yang Ge learned that Jin Yiwei had copied out a large number of medical books and classics from previous dynasties from Liu Bingzheng''s study, his face turned pale and he stared at Liu Bingzheng with fire in his eyes. "idiot!" Yang Gelao could only grit his teeth and curse out two words. He had endured everything for half his life, and he was about to achieve the feat of serving the dragon, becoming a prince, and becoming a prime minister. In the end, a stupid person got involved. Thinking that it was Liu Bingzheng who begged him to save his eldest son in the first place, he would do it. Enter the palace to find Admiral Feng. Thinking about it, he wanted to slap himself to death at that time. Regret! I really regret it! Now we can only hope that Emperor Mingcheng can take care of his old relationship and let the Yang family go for the sake of his daughter Concubine Shu. Another person might go to Emperor Ming Cheng and plead for Concubine Shu''s affection, but Mr. Yang Ge would not do this. Over the years, the Yang family relied on Concubine Shu''s affection to favor Emperor Ming Cheng a little bit, but this was all tacitly understood. Mr. Yang Ge, including the entire Yang family, would not mention this matter, as if Concubine Shu was the Yang family. taboo. If Yang Ge Lao goes to Emperor Ming Cheng to mention it. Then, not only will the effect not be what he thought, but it will make the Yang family lose faster. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty could reminisce about old feelings. If the Yang family exposes this, their nature will change, and they will probably be accused of trying to guess the emperor''s will. Since ancient times, even if the emperor knew that his ministers would speculate on his thoughts, they did not want anyone who could see through him to exist. . In one day. Yang Lingyu committed suicide by leaving a **** confession. Liu Bingzheng was arrested and Yang Gelao was imprisoned. People who were originally waiting to see the Yuan family''s misfortune were surprised to see this turn of events. The situation in the court is changing, and many people are becoming more cautious. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! People in each house restrain their own children. Suddenly, the streets, teahouses and taverns of the capital were filled with fewer dandies who usually walked dogs and fought cocks. This is a bit dangerous for everyone. Who knows who Emperor Ming Chengs butcher knife will strike at the next moment? In a poor man''s house in the capital. Inside a secret room. A man wearing half a ghost mask was beating someone with a whip. The person who was beaten was kneeling on the ground, his back was beaten into flesh and blood, and he did not dare to say a word. Mr. Yan next to him frowned deeply. Until the person who was beaten fainted. The masked man then threw away the whip in his hand, angrily returned to the seat and sat down, picked up a bowl of tea, and drank it all in one gulp, "That''s unreasonable! Who is always going against me?" "Lord, Mr. Yan guessed that the person most likely to be Prince Rui." Mr. Yan had been thinking about it for so long. In the entire Great Xia Dynasty, except for Emperor Ming Cheng, only Prince Rui had such strength, making it impossible for their people to trace him. The masked man''s eyes were sinister, "I am in the northwest, and my son is in Huangshan. Who is in charge of the overall situation in the capital? Are they the concubines in the mansion?" When he said the last sentence, a sneer with unknown meaning appeared on his lips. This is something Mr. Yan cant figure out. After two face-to-face confrontations, they didn''t think that Prince Rui was behind it. Unfortunately, there are only two serious masters left in Prince Rui''s Mansion, and one is about to die. It''s impossible to still have the energy to cause trouble for them here. But now it seems that there are not many forces in the capital who have the ability to go to the Ministry of Justice to kill people and erase all the evidence so that no one is aware of it. The masked man''s mouth almost formed a line, "After we killed the chief envoy, the other party used the same method to kill Yang Lingyu. Is it a warning to us?" "It''s hard to say." Mr. Yan pondered for a long time but still couldn''t figure out the reason. "I didn''t guess what the other party''s intention was at first. Now that Yang Zhengkai and Yang Zhengkai are in jail, the other party may be targeting them." "Not us?" The masked man suspected that he was coming for them. Mr. Yan shook his head, "It doesn''t look like that." The last time they had a confrontation in Zuixian Tower, the other party suddenly withdrew in the middle of the battle, and his behavior was very suspicious. One thing is for sure, they are not from Emperor Ming Cheng''s side. Mr. Yan added: "That Liu Bingzheng is useless. Jin Yiwei searched his study and found evidence." "Find a way to save the Yang family first!" "yes!" Chapter 334 Exile of three tribes Chapter 334 The Exile of Three Tribes Those who are useless must be discarded. Mr. Yan cannot let Liu Bingzheng live. This man knows something about them. Just as he sent people to kill Liu Bingzheng. Something happened in the palace again. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty became furious after seeing Imperial Physician Zhuo. Liu Bingzheng was immediately interrogated and sent to prison. As soon as the news came out, everyone was shocked. What exactly did this guy offend? Soon rumors spread that Jinyiwei had copied a large number of medical books from the Liu family. Someone accidentally saw a prescription called Huichun, which was the same as the prescription for nourishing vitality and replenishing qi prescribed by Imperial Doctor Liu to Emperor Mingcheng. The only difference was that The dosage is halved. And this recipe is for those who are critically ill. Doctor Liu rashly changed the recipe and gave it to Emperor Ming Cheng to try out. He also said that it was a recipe for strengthening the body and replenishing Qi. He committed the crime of deceiving the emperor and was suspected of murdering the emperor. If he doesnt go to imperial prison, who will? Suddenly everyone in the Liu family was in jail. The wind is roaring and people are panicking. Everyone avoids it. "I, I didn''t intend to murder Your Majesty. Halving the dosage of the prescription is indeed good for the body..." Liu Bingzheng endured a round of torture from Jin Yiwei. Still insisting on being wronged. The commander of the Jin Yiwei said expressionlessly: "Your Majesty has an order. Since you said it is beneficial, I will boil the medicine for you to drink." He raised his hand, and someone brought a bowl of pitch-black concoction to Liu Bingzheng. Not to mention, just take a bowl of medicine. Liu Bingzheng gradually recovered, causing those who looked at him to raise their eyebrows. Then another imperial physician came over to take his pulse and record it. It was clear that Liu Bingzheng was going to be tested. Few people who entered the imperial prison could get out alive. A bowl of medicine cut off all hope for Liu Bingzheng. Liu Bingzheng died that night. I dont know who killed him, but he was indeed dead. The Liu family is also unable to escape disaster. All the male members of the Liu family were beheaded, while the female family members were put into the Jiaofang Department. The nine Liu clans were exiled. The glory of a lifetime is gone in an instant. Only the whole city was left with sighs and discussions. And these news spread to Zhangjiawan. Qin Chi had not set off yet, citing the excuse of waiting for the ship. Song Jin has received good news one after another recently and is in a good mood. First, the enemy Yang Lingyu died, and then the Yang and Liu families were unlucky. Song Jin also figured out some of the truth about that year. The Song family''s collection of books is at Liu Bingzheng''s place. This shows that the nobleman who coveted the Song family back then was most likely Liu Bingzheng! "I didn''t expect him to hide so deeply!" Song Jin gritted his teeth bitterly. Qin Chi stepped forward to comfort him, "Madam, please don''t be angry. He has already received his retribution. The Liu family has also received their retribution." "But even so, my family still..." Song Jin''s eyes gradually became moist. Qin Chi whispered: "The person will be found. I asked people to pay attention to the source of the medicinal materials in Jianning. As long as you follow this line to search, you will find the person as soon as possible." "Thank you for your trouble, sir." "I''m ashamed. It''s been many years and I still haven''t found my father-in-law." Qin Chineng said that he was helpless about this. How to say it? It took me so long to find him, but I still couldn''t find him. He said that he tried his best, but even he was disappointed. For this reason, he also discounted some people. Qin Chi asked again: "Does Madam know about rejuvenation?" "have no idea." Song Jin knew that there used to be many books in her home, but she was not interested in them at that time. After something happened to the Song family, their collection of books was confiscated. Two enemies died at once, and Song Jin was in a particularly good mood. This good mood lasted until the next day, and she even ate an extra bowl for breakfast. The group started packing their things again and started boarding the ship. The boat is a big boat, and it is very balanced when traveling in the river. It does not rock as much as a small boat, which reduces the chance of seasickness. Qin Chi chose to board the ship and leave today. Naturally, he knew that the Yang and Liu families had finally settled down, and there was no chance of a reversal. The Liu family is facing its current fate, how can Mr. Yang Ge be immune to it alone? Qin Chi was right as he expected. They took the boat for three days, and when they docked, they received news from the capital. The three Yang clans were sentenced to confiscation of their homes and exiled. As for why they were not asked to be executed like the Liu family, this is also attributed to the handwriting of Yang Ge Lao. When he was in prison, he asked the jailer for pen and ink and wrote a long letter to Emperor Mingcheng. The letter contains Mr. Yang Ge''s own life experience, the harmonious friendship between monarch and ministers, his ambitions and expectations for Daxia, etc. Then he confesses to Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty and writes about his mistakes and selfishness. This letter is long. A long letter seems sincere. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! In the end, Yang Gelao committed suicide. With his death, this letter was delivered to Emperor Ming Cheng. Emperor Ming Cheng originally wanted to drop the butcher knife. He eventually changed the execution of the three clans to the exile of the three clans. This may be the last trace of friendship that Emperor Ming Cheng cared about. Of course, Emperor Mingcheng didn''t know that Yang Ge always belonged to the former prince, otherwise the Nine Clan would not be able to relieve their anger. "Exiled..." Song Jin stood alone on the deck, holding on to the railing, tranced by the surging river water, "Dad, the person who harmed us is dead, but where are you?" In a room in the cabin. Qin Chi is listening to Qin Yi''s report on the situation. The former prince and his advisers were probably furious. The Yang and Liu families are very important to their overall situation, and they did not expect such an incident to happen suddenly. Not only that, Admiral Feng also died. Three people died at once, which had a great impact on them. Qin Chi found another secret letter. In an instant, he stood up suddenly, with a look of shock on his face. Qin Yi was surprised, "Master?" He rarely sees Qin Chi lose his temper. Including Lao Li Tou and Lao Huo who were silent on the side. Lao Huo couldn''t help but ask: "Master, has something big happened?" Qin Chi read the secret letter again and handed it to Lao Huo. When Lao Huo saw it, he was instantly furious. Old Li Tou on the side grabbed the letter. After reading it, he was also extremely angry, "Liu family! The Liu family died too early. I want to dig out Liu Bingzheng''s body, chop it up and feed it to the dogs." "The Liu family deserves to die, **** it!" Old Huo was extremely angry, "It''s easy for them, let them die early! However, the female relatives of the Liu family have joined the Jiaofang Division? Should we go..." He made a gesture of wiping his neck. Qin Chi''s face was extremely cold, and he calmed down at this moment, "You can''t touch them, they are bait placed outside by His Majesty." What Jin Yiwei copied from the Liu family included not only the Song family''s medical classics, but also secrets that the Liu family had hidden for decades. It''s just that Jin Yiwei has never leaked these things to the outside world. Qin Chi will know because there are people from him in the Jinyi Guards. The children of the Liu family relied on their medical skills to visit the houses of powerful people in the capital. Almost all the secrets they learned were compiled into books, and there was even an underground secret room for storage. Among them, the Liu family got involved in other people''s backyard fights. They seek people''s lives, make people die of illness, or cause people to have miscarriages, use people''s excuses to win people''s hearts, etc. The numerous crimes committed over the past decades are difficult to write down. It is recorded that more than 20 years ago, the Liu family murdered Prince Rui''s concubine and concubine, resulting in the death of two babies. One of them took medicine during pregnancy, which resulted in the child being born weak, and the other died of cold syndrome. Chapter tonight. Chapter 335 Return home in splendor Chapter 335 Returning home in glory Prince Rui had more than two children who died in infancy. As far as several people know, this is the first time evidence has been found. The Liu family even tried to attack the Li family, but failed. No wonder Qin Chi and others were angry. Lao Huo asked: "The person behind the Liu family is the former prince? The emperor may not know. Young master, do you want to leak a little bit? Let them eat dogs." "He may not know." Qin Chi suddenly wasn''t so sure, "Liu Bingzheng died in the imperial prison. The mastermind behind the scenes can go to the imperial prison to kill people. He has great magical powers. Will the person in the palace not be suspicious? Fortunately, the evidence found from the Liu family is enough Put aside the suspicion of Prince Qingruis palace. Previously, Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty would most likely doubt Prince Rui''s Mansion. Qin Chi''s guess was correct. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty did suspect Prince Nai Rui, the master behind Liu Bingzheng, but the things copied by the Liu family quickly overturned his suspicions. At the same time, many officials were implicated in the Liu family and were either dismissed or exiled. Qin Chi stirs up trouble in the capital. Now he patted his **** and left Beijing with his wife. Fortunately, outsiders don''t know. Otherwise, there will be no end to the people chasing Qin Chi. Qin Chi gathered his emotions and walked into the rest room, just in time to see Song Jin sitting at the table writing a letter. He went over and sat across from her, picked up the teapot beside him with his fingers, and poured out a cup of honey water. This is prepared for Song Jin. After drinking it, Qin Chi found it was too sweet and put it down gently, "Madam, who are you writing to if you don''t rest?" "I thought you wouldn''t ask." Song Jin finally raised her eyelids and glanced at him. Qin Chi felt a knot in his heart and said solemnly: "A gentleman must abide by his own etiquette." "Hehehe..." Song Jin laughed out loud without thinking, "Sorry, I didn''t mean to make fun of my husband, I just couldn''t hold it back for the moment." It was okay not to explain. Qin Chi''s face darkened immediately after such an explanation, and he was helpless immediately. Is he so bad in the lady''s heart? Song Jin''s letter had already been written. When the writing on the letter was dry, he folded it and put it in the envelope and glued it shut. "I will send a letter back to the capital to Wei Yuan and ask them to pay attention to the Liu family in Cuihua Hutong." "Oh, that''s it." Qin Chi added, "When something happens to the Yang family and the Liu family, Liu Ji may not dare to take any action in the capital. I have already asked people to pay attention to him. On the surface, that person looks like a gentleman. Behind his back, he often goes to the streets and alleys, and he is still in a brothel. I hired a girl." "Most scholars are like this." "Madam, please don''t kill a whole boat of people with one shot..." "Oh, I said the wrong thing." Song Jin glanced at Qin Chi meaningfully. It''s not that she is pessimistic, it''s just that most of what she sees is like this. Qin Chi is now clean and self-sufficient. What about the future? The ship was docking and the letter was handed over to Mu Ting. Mu Ting came back not long after she landed. The crew supplies were completed and the ship continued south. A group of people disembarked in Huai''an Mansion and took the land route instead. After a month and a half of walking and stopping, we finally arrived at Huizhou Prefecture. Someone leaked the news about Qin Chi going home to visit his bride. As soon as he arrived in Huizhou, he saw the Huizhou magistrate leading a group of officials to greet him. Song Jin, who had been sitting in the carriage for a long time, was a little dizzy and simply did not get out of the car. . Qin Chi chatted with the officials. Next, the hospitality was hard to refuse, and Qin Chi had to stay and socialize. Song Jin and others returned to Yi County first. This time, he did not go to Hongcun Town. Instead, he complied with the clan leader''s request and went directly back to Qinjiagou. This is the return of the number one scholar to his hometown, how could he have gone to the next town? No matter what, we have to go back to Qinjiagou first. When Song Jin and his party arrived in Qinjiagou, they were given a warm welcome by the people in the village. The sound of gongs, drums and bamboo whips was constant. Just sitting in the carriage, you could hear the excitement outside. At this time, Song Jin should have got off the bus at the entrance of the village. But she was pregnant with Liujia, and Yinlong asked her not to join in the fun. The family''s house had been cleaned long ago, and the carriage stopped at the door. When Song Jin was helped down, he saw a large family in front of the door. Old man Qin and old Liu are also there. One by one, they put on new clothes, dressed up energetically, and looked happy. The one who was greeted by so many people was naturally not Song Jin. But only Song Jin came down from the carriage with a big belly, and the scene suddenly became quiet. Song Jin was embarrassed for them. She walked up to the elders and saluted and said hello. Old Man Qin looked behind her and asked in disappointment, "Where''s Da Lang? Didn''t you say he went to Qinjiagou today?" "I met the prefect on the way and invited him. My husband got off the car and went to socialize. He may come back tomorrow morning." Song Jin said truthfully. Old Liu said with a straight face: "If we hadn''t informed you earlier, we wouldn''t have had to wait here." "Didn''t your husband come back with a message?" Song Jin was very surprised by this. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! My husband doesn''t seem to be such an unreliable person. Yinlong on the side said something for Qin Chi: "Little miss, my uncle probably didn''t know that the villagers would organize such a big welcoming ceremony." "It''s really possible." Boss Qin said. Qin Laoer also clapped his hands, "Who said that? You want a surprise?" "No wonder Da Lang, he didn''t expect that the prefect would find him halfway." Qin Laosan also said for Qin Chi. Old Man Qin snorted coldly, "Fortunately, Uncle Clan and the others are not here..." Song Jin looked at everyone one by one. Everyone has changes. The people in the second and third bedrooms have not changed much, except that their clothes are obviously better, and there are a group of children who are very energetic. Old Qin was also dressed like a squire, but he was old Liu. He looked more than ten years older, with white hair on his head and deeper lines between his eyebrows. Song Jin did not see the two children. In addition, Song Xiu and his wife were not seen. Mrs. Li looked at her belly with a smile, then came forward to hold her hand, "Young lady, you must be tired after riding in the carriage for so long. Go inside and have a rest. You are not alone now, so you can''t be tired." My dear grandson." "That''s right, we can''t be tired anymore." "Come in and take a rest. If you have anything to say, we can wait until the break is over." At this moment, the people around remembered that Song Jin had not entered the house yet, and they all agreed with Li. Everyone made a way. Let Song Jin go into the room first. There were Yinlong and Qin Qi beside Song Jin to prevent them from rushing into each other if there were too many people here. Boss Qin and others carried the luggage in the car. Not knowing the situation for a while, I moved the things into the warehouse first. A group of uncles, aunts, and children from the surrounding villages are here. Li knew how to be a good person, so she asked Xiao Liu and Lin to pick up baskets of pastries and candies and distribute them to the adults one by one. "Come on, everyone is happy." Xiao Liu shouted with a smile. Mrs. Lin was there to help. She still didn''t talk much, but her eyes were bright. Song Jin stood in front of the hall, as if he wanted to rest but hesitated. Yinlong knew that she was trying to make a gesture and went back to the room to rest, fearing that she would be criticized. "Ouch, you said you''re feeling unwell. Go back to your room and have a rest. I''ll ask Doctor Jing to come over and take your pulse later." Yinlong spoke without covering up. Li and others who just came in also heard it. Mrs. Li immediately urged: "I am here. The young man''s wife should go back to her room to rest first." "Thank you for your understanding, mother." Song Jin bowed before Shi Shiran returned to his room. If Song Xiu met here, he would definitely scold her for being pretentious and hypocritical. Chapter 336 The person who harmed my uncle back then Chapter 336 The person who harmed my uncle back then After Song Jin washed up, he ate something briefly and took a nap in the bedroom. In a dazed sleep, I seemed to hear the child''s laughter, and half-opened my eyes in sleepiness. It seems to be dusk outside. Song Jin was fully dressed, combed her hair and walked out. In a small green courtyard. A pair of six-year-old twins were playing. The boy wore a blue robe embroidered with cloud patterns, with jade tassels tied around his waist. The girl wore a pink palace dress, with gold thread on the collar and cuffs, and a bow tied around her waist. They were lively and cute. The boy watched his sister play intently, like a little adult, and would often open his arms to protect his running sister, fearing that she would fall. An ordinary small courtyard, with two children, adds infinite vitality and fun. A pretty maid was watching from the side. Song Jin recognized the maid as Xiaoyu. The well-behaved little girl in the past has grown into a young girl. "Master, you''re awake." The first person to notice Song Jin coming out was Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu spoke, and the children who were playing also knew it. They both stopped and looked at Song Jin. Two pairs of big eyes blinked. Niu Niu reacted the fastest and quickly reached Song Jin, hugged Song Jin''s thigh, raised her little head, and shouted: "Mother! Mother, I am Niu Niu." "It''s my mother''s Niuniu." Song Jin bent down and touched Niu Niu''s little head. The little girl wears her hair in a double bun, very cute and playful. Because Song Jin would give each child a letter home every month, so there was no unfamiliarity. In order to write letters to her mother, little Niuniu was very active in learning to read. Song Jin quickly bent down and picked up her daughter. But her big belly didn''t give her a chance, so she could only hold her daughter''s little hand. Hu Zi next to him, with the reserve of a young adult, came over and bowed to Song Jin in a polite manner, and then called out implicitly: "Mother, my son wishes you well." He looked reserved, but when he saw his sister acting coquettishly next to Song Jin, the little man couldn''t hide the envy in his eyes. Song Jin bent down and hugged his son weakly, also rubbed the top of his head and praised: "My son has grown up and is now a handsome young man." Huzi tried hard not to smile. But he couldn''t hold it back, and the corners of his mouth rose wider and wider. Song Jin was in a very good mood, holding a baby in one hand and walking forward. When Yinlong learned that Song Jin was awake, she immediately asked the kitchen staff to bring up the food that Wen was in the nest. The two children had already eaten, but Yinlong still thoughtfully placed small bowls and chopsticks for them. Let them dine with Song Jin. During the dinner, Niuniu was like a lark, chattering non-stop, even talking to the puppies raised at home. Huzi would occasionally add a few words. When Mrs. Li came over and saw this scene, she couldn''t bear to disturb him. It is natural for children to be close to their parents. Even if they have not seen each other for a while, Li will often mention their parents to them during this period. For example, Qin Chi went to Taihu to provide disaster relief earlier and was a respected official, etc. In the children''s hearts, parents He has a very tall image, giving them a stable home and a sky to support them. Song Jin''s short photo shows that the child is well-educated. Staying with my mother-in-law is much better than her. She is an unfit mother. Even if she takes care of the child, she may not have a mother-in-law who can teach her well. At this moment, she was extremely grateful to Mr. Li. Song Jindu spent one night with his child Nuwai. After making friends with local officials, Qin Chi said goodbye overnight and went to his uncle''s hot spring village in Huangshan. There are fifteen hot springs in Huangshan, among which the hot spring is known as one of the "Five Wonders" of Huangshan. It was called Tangquan in ancient times, also known as Cinnabar Spring, and has two entrances and exits. The hot spring is located at the southern foot of Zishi Peak and on the north bank of Tangquan River. Since its development in the Tang Dynasty, it has enjoyed a thousand-year reputation. There is an ancient legend here. According to Song Jingyou''s "Huangshan Illustrated Book", it is said that Xuanyuan Huangdi, the ancestor of the Chinese nation, once bathed here. His wrinkles were eliminated and he was rejuvenated. Therefore, the hot spring became famous. Because it has certain medical value, it is also called "Lingquan". As soon as Qin Chi came over, He Lianpu caught him and soaked him. I have to say that after taking a dip, the fatigue of the past few days of traveling was gone, and I felt refreshed. Under the night, He Lianpu was dressed in a simple white shirt and sat cross-legged at the stone table next to him, like a leisurely immortal. He personally brewed a pot of Huangshan Jinhao. When Qin Chi came up and sat down, he slowly pushed it in front of him. "Drink." He Lianpu said. Qin Chi breathed a deep sigh of relief, picked up the tea cup and said, "Thank you uncle, what I miss most outside is the tea made by my uncle." "Hahaha" He Lianpu laughed happily. Halfway through laughing, he coughed violently again. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Shocked, Qin Chi quickly put down the tea cup, turned to He Lian Pu and helped him lift his back. When He Lian Pu calmed down, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Uncle, please be careful." I felt good when I saw Qin Chi coming over. He felt even better when he learned that his wife was pregnant again. Qin Chi told him about what happened in the capital, including the collusion between the Yang, Liu and Liu families, as well as the evidence found by the Liu family, etc. He told him everything he knew. "It turns out to be the Liu family." The Liu family can only be regarded as one of the people who attacked Prince Rui''s palace. The real mastermind behind the scenes is the former prince, who is also Helian Pu''s uncle in terms of seniority. "Is he really dead or is he pretending to be dead?" , its hard to say. It is related to the fact that Prince Rui''s palace is being targeted. There are some secrets that He Lianpu never mentioned to Qin Chi, "We knew that there was a force behind it that has been targeting the palace. Your grandfather once investigated and said that it was probably the remnants of the former prince. They wanted to give the former prince The prince''s revenge." "The former prince is a good man?" "It is said that he is really talented and treats his subordinates very well." He Lianpu did not have any more comments. This man has many sides, and it is difficult to say whether he is good or bad. There is no reason why He Lian Pu was prejudiced against Ming Cheng Emperor, "When your grandfather was investigating, he found out that he had received a secret report in advance that someone would target his heir, but in the end he chose to stand aside out of fear. By the time your grandfather reacts, his descendants will soon be extinct." "Uncle''s body?" Qin Chi was shocked. He Lianpu picked up the tea and took a sip before putting it down. "I was plotted against when I was a child. Everyone involved died, but only one person is still alive." This was a plot against him at the expense of several people''s lives. The people behind the scenes were ruthless, but they still achieved their goal. He Lianpu dragged his body to death because he didn''t want to do what the people behind the scenes wanted. He also thought of ways to kill the other party, "The person who plotted against me is called Yan Jiangnan." This person has great talent, but he is not a good person. This plan separated the brotherhood between Emperor Mingcheng and Prince Rui. When the late emperor died suddenly, the kings fought for the throne. Prince Rui sided with Emperor Mingcheng, and in the end the first prince lost. The former crown prince and the rest of the party resented Prince Rui for assisting the emperor. In addition to seeking revenge on Prince Rui''s heirs, they also wanted to instigate a relationship between Prince Rui and Emperor Ming Cheng. The most chilling thing is that Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty received the secret report in advance but stood idly by. Brothers in the past were separated from each other. Until now, they have not turned against each other. They also put the overall situation first and have to maintain the superficial peace. He Lianpu knew that Qin Chi was enough to stir up troubles, so he told him these secrets. As for what Qin Chi would do in the future, He Lianpu did not force him, but he just wanted to feast on Jiangnan''s life. Qin Chi also just found out that Yan Jiangnan was the mastermind behind the plot against his uncle. He Lianpu had been looking for the other party''s whereabouts, but he didn''t expect that the other party was hiding in the capital. Chapter 337 Today is different from the past Chapter 337 Today is different from the past The next day, Qin Chi returned to Qinjiagou. I met my parents and elders, and then went to meet the clan leader. The clan began to prepare for ancestor worship in full swing, and Lao Qin''s family also began to prepare to choose a date to hold a flowing water feast. Everyone else in the family is busy. Only Song Jin is relatively free. The reason is that she will give birth next month, and everyone subconsciously avoids her and goes to see Li when they have something to do. Qin Chi was also too busy to get away. Many people come to visit him every day, and he also has to visit his former teachers and hand over invitations. Song Jin spent time with her children when she had time. In addition, I asked about the business in Huizhou. Today Song Jin is sitting in the small courtyard, Hu Zi is reading on the stone table, and Niu Niu is very clingy and is lying on her lap talking. A figure appeared in the archway in front of the courtyard. "Hey, my sister is rich." This man started acting strangely as soon as he arrived. Song Jin raised her eyelids and glanced at Song Xiu, "We haven''t seen you for a year, but you still haven''t changed." Not wanting the two children to see their tit-for-tat scene, Song Jin asked Xiaoyu to take them away. Before the two children left, they still politely said hello to Song Xiu, and then left hand in hand. Song Xiu waved her embroidered handkerchief and sat opposite Song Jin. Song Jin looked at Song Xiu with a mean look on his face, and at the same time, he was full of hostility. A blind person could see that. Also, Song Xiu''s clothes and jewelry didn''t look fashionable. . "Are you having a bad life?" Song Jin suddenly asked. Song Xiu''s face contorted for a moment when she heard this, "I am living a good life. I have no shortage of housing, food, and clothing." "That''s good, it''s really good." Song Jin actually followed Song Xiu''s words, which made Song Xiu''s face stiffen again. When Song Jin came back, even if she didn''t inquire, she still knew a lot about what happened in the fourth room. Qin Mingsong had not been at home for a long time, saying that he was studying outside. Song Xiu suspected that she was fooling around with Bai Cuiwei, and went to keep an eye on Bai Cuiwei when he didn''t find Qin Mingsong. Cui Wei. Bai Cuiwei couldn''t bear it anymore and moved. At this time, his whereabouts were unknown, and he was said to have become a monk. Qin Mingsong is really studying. He often communicates with others and asks for advice. In the past, not many people would betray his reputation, but later Qin Chi won the top prize, and Qin Mingsong really benefited from it. The advantage of having Qin Chi''s invisibility is. Some people don''t mind giving him a good deal, and Qin Mingsong will also give some advice when he comes to ask for advice. Today, Qin Mingsong came back after receiving the news and took Song Xiu with him. When Song Xiu came over, her eyes fell on Song Jin''s swollen belly from time to time, "The baby is about to be born." "Well, next month." Song Jin''s eyes glanced at her belly, but he didn''t ask any questions. But when Song Xiu saw her looking at his belly, he knew what it meant even if she didn''t ask. Suddenly, a wave of anger rushed into his heart, and he was so aggrieved that he couldn''t vent it. After losing my second child. Song Xiu never got pregnant again, and even after seeing a doctor, there was no improvement. Song Jin said, "Why do you come to see me?" "It''s okay, just come and take a look." Song Xiuruo said that it was impossible not to have envy and jealousy in her heart, but it had happened too many times, and she had become somewhat used to it, so she said with a bit of sourness, "I stopped by to congratulate you, sister. I heard that you have been blessed with a royal decree. Yes." A respectful person of the fourth grade. "Well, the emperor''s grace is great." Song Jin replied calmly, then lowered his head and stroked his abdomen. The two never thought that one day they would sit here and talk calmly. It can only be said that Song Xiu has grown up, or it can also be said that there are fewer gatherings and more separations, and some of the grievances and grudges in the past seem superficial. Song Xiu smiled reluctantly. Ever since the two of them returned home in fine clothes, Song Xiu, even though he had not left home, still knew how much of a sensation Qin Chi had caused when he returned to his hometown to visit relatives. There was still a lot of people outside, which meant that the back house was quiet. "Sister is doing great now, and I feel ashamed of myself." Song Xiu seemed to want to give a few compliments, but something didn''t taste right when it came out of her mouth. At least Song Jin felt uncomfortable after hearing this, "What is your purpose of coming here? Just tell me directly." Song Xiu tugged on the embroidered handkerchief, "No, last month someone donated a Zhuangyuan archway, which is almost completed. The clan is also building a clan school, repairing the ancestral hall, and purchasing clan fields. I heard that it is Qin Chi donated a large amount of money, how long has he been an official? " "What do you want to say? That he took money and returned to his hometown to work as a money-splitting boy?" Song Jin raised his eyebrows. Song Xiu said dryly: "I don''t mean that." "What do you mean?" Song Jin looked at Song Xiu with a half-smile. Song Xiu wanted to talk back to Song Jin forcefully, but in the end she didn''t have the confidence to back down. No matter how stupid you are these years, you can finally realize that what Song Jin said in the early years was not false. She said she would never pay attention to her again, so she really ignored her. Since I left Huizhou, I haven''t written a letter to her, sent her anything, and I haven''t asked about her life. Sit for a while longer. Song Xiu probably found it boring, so he found an excuse and left. If you have nothing to say to Song Jin here, you might as well go outside and listen to people flattering you. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! While at the arch, Song Xiu met Qin Chi. Qin Chi greeted politely, "I''ve met my aunt." Song Xiu responded awkwardly and left. Qin Chi came to sit in front of Song Jin, then looked at the archway where no one was standing, "Isn''t she coming to cause trouble to the lady?" "I''ve grown a little bit." Song Jin wanted to say that it was probably reality that taught her how to be a good person, "When people come over on their own initiative, they probably want to take advantage of our husband-in-law. She used to clamor all day long not to let us take advantage of the family after the separation, but now she wants to take advantage of our husband-in-law." Its funny just thinking about it. Qin Chi understood and couldn''t help but laugh: "This is unavoidable. Fortunately, the families have been separated, and the light they can get is limited. After all, we are already two families." "I know." Song Jin didn''t take it to heart. Qin Chi said with emotion: "After all, I still want to thank you, Madam." "Thank me for what?" Song Jin asked with a raised eyebrow. Qin Chi knew that she was asking questions knowingly: "It''s just something outside. You asked Xing Lun to do it. Many Huizhou businessmen also joined in, contributing money and efforts." "I just asked Xing Lun to start." After Song Jin confirmed that Qin Chi was going back to his hometown to visit his relatives, he sent a letter asking Xing Lun to return to Huizhou to do some things. Some of them were things led by Huizhou merchants, and some were good deeds done in the name of Qin Chi. Don''t mention things that benefit the clan. Just a series of good deeds such as building bridges and paving roads, which benefited the local people, brought Qin Chi''s good reputation to a higher level. Therefore, before Qin Chi returned to his hometown, his reputation was already very good in Huizhou. In addition, some things that happened after Qin Chi entered the court and became an official were gradually spread back to Huizhou. He was promoted to the fourth rank in about a year. Even if these four grades have not yet been implemented, Emperor Mingcheng''s golden mouth has been opened, and it is a matter of ironclad certainty. There was a family dinner in the afternoon. Everyone was here, not only the old Qin family, but also the married daughter and uncle who brought their family to the house. Song Jin has to show up this time. I unexpectedly met Qin Mingsong during the dinner. There seemed to be some changes in Qin Mingsong. Song Jin couldn''t tell specifically what the changes were. It was probably because he was no longer as good as before. After all, he was no longer the most promising person in the old Qin family. Qin Chi sat in a conspicuous position and talked and laughed. Today is different from the past. Even if Qin Chi is not superior, he seems to be a person that many people cannot reach. Song Jin looked at this scene and suddenly felt relieved. After all, she was the one who lived a life that the three of them could not reach... (End of chapter) Chapter 338 To attack the child in her belly Chapter 338: The idea of ??attacking her unborn child All the grudges from the past life have disappeared. The only thing Song Jin was worried about at this time was the whereabouts of his family. Compared to this, the matter between Song Xiu and Qin Mingsong is simply not worth mentioning. Next, we drank for three rounds. Song Jin left the table early and went back to his room to rest. Xiaoyu glanced at it and followed, "My boss." "What''s the matter?" Song Jin turned back to look at Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu''s expression clearly indicated that something was wrong. Sure enough, she took out a letter from her arms and handed it to Song Jin. "This is the letter from my brother. I said you will know after reading it." "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Xiaoyu." Song Jinwen took it with a smile and did not open it immediately. Instead, he looked at Xiaoyu a few times. The little girl had grown up a little and became a slim girl. "Xiaoyu has grown up, and it''s time to start looking for marriage." Xiaoyu smiled shyly and said, "Master, stop teasing me." Song Jin did not treat her as a human being, "Your brother is not young either. Is he married?" "Not yet." Xiaoyu shook her head. Song Jin smiled and said, "I''ll talk to Aunt Long when I get back and ask her to help search for your brother." Xiaoyu''s eyes lit up, "Thank you so much, boss." The brother and sister are orphans and it is not easy for them to get married. A daughter from a good family will choose her family background and will not find a husband who has no relatives from her parents. Now someone is helping her brother to be a matchmaker, and Xiaoyu is very happy. Song Jin opened the letter. This letter was said to be from Lou Ruhan, but in fact it was from Xing Lun. In the letter, Xing Lun reported what he had done during this period. The letter also mentioned that Wei from Fuzhou said that he would continue to purchase medicinal materials. Both parties were very satisfied after the last transaction. Song Xiaocheng has been promoted and is now a member of the 100th household. In two years, it is not bad to go from being a soldier to being a member of a hundred households. Not everyone belongs to Qin Chi and can be upgraded several levels a year. The letter mentioned Song Xiaocheng''s trip to kill pirates, saying that everything went well, and also mentioned the names of several islands. Song Jin took it out and immediately took out a sea chart from the secret compartment of the cabinet. The above is the chart currently explored in Fuzhou, marking the locations of various large and small islands. She matched the names of several islands on the letter with their numbers. Record it again. The scope of the search has been shrinking over the years. The search for the Song family was not a blind search. Among the evidence that Qin Yi found that the Liu family raised private soldiers, there were also several pirate dens, and those pirates each occupied several islands. These islands are where Song Jin is most suspicious. But its not easy to check them all one by one. Song Jin invested another sum of money, asking someone to send the money to Song Xiaocheng, and ask him to transfer it to Shen Shen to develop his power in the future and increase the strength of the guard station, such as weapons and equipment. The old ones were replaced with new ones, and money was invested to build warships. Song Jinti''s request was not high, just let Dinghai Guards protect the safety of the Jifang caravan sailing in that area. This is really not too much to ask for. Shen Shenjiang readily agreed, and every time Xing Lun came over, he would be warmly received and his men would be arranged to **** him. When Governor Wang established the Dinghai Guard Station, his purpose was to kill pirates and restore peace to the sea area. This goal does not conflict with Song Jin. Song Jin just wanted to use the government to find people secretly. It''s not like Qin Chi didn''t make arrangements. At the same time, he arranged for people to go in at various health centers in Fuzhou. It''s just that the couple has a tacit understanding. They have always done their own thing and will not interfere with each other''s actions. Occasionally, they will cooperate for a win-win situation when necessary. "The elder man''s wife?" Xiao Liu stuck her head out at the door. Song Jin looked up in surprise, "Second Aunt." While speaking, she folded the charts and letters on the table without leaving a trace and placed them under a stack of books. Xiao Liu came in with a smile, "I''ve been so busy these days that I don''t have time to talk to you. How are you? Is it difficult to be pregnant? I heard from Aunt Yin that it was not easy for you to get pregnant." "It''s okay, I have a little backache now." Song Jin said this lightly, but Xiao Liu looked very understanding. Xiao Liu thought deeply and said: "I know this. It was the same when I was pregnant with those babies. It will be fine when the babies are born." So she shared a lot of pregnancy experiences with Song Jin. Song Jin listened very carefully. Someone was listening to her talk, and Xiao Liu became more and more enthusiastic as she talked. As she talked, the conversation came to Song Xiu''s head, "The fourth brother doesn''t have a child yet, which makes the mother-in-law very anxious, and she urges the fourth brother and sister from time to time. Did you know What do the fourth siblings say? "What do you say?" Song Jin was interested. Little Liu looked outside the house. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Seeing that no one was around, she muttered softly, "The fourth brother and sister said this was the fault of my mother-in-law and brother-in-law. The children they should have had were lost to them." Song Jin couldn''t help but laugh out loud, "That''s right." "No, when she said that, my mother-in-law didn''t even dare to let go of a fart." Mrs. Liu saw the snacks next to her. She picked them up and ate them. While eating, she said, "My mother-in-law went to the old blind man to tell fortunes a few days ago." , asked my uncle if he would have a wife in this life, do you know what the old blind man said? " "Second Aunt, what did the old blind man say?" Song Jin sent the plate with candied fruits to Xiao Liu. Xiao Liu smiled happily, took the plate and said mysteriously: "The old blind man said that my uncle''s relationship with children was shallow. He was supposed to have a son and a daughter, but it ended somehow." Song Jin was shocked. Didn''t Qin Mingsong have a son and a daughter in his previous life? Xiao Liu curled her lips and said: "My uncle didn''t give birth to three children. Isn''t this broken? There must be two of them who can give birth to children. It''s their own fault. I don''t want to talk about this matter to them." , but my mother-in-law suddenly had the idea of ??adoption. " It''s hard to say whose adopted child this is. When it comes to which room has more children, it must be the second room. But the children in the second room are old and can already remember things. Xiao Liu''s eyes fell on Song Jin''s abdomen. Song Jinmeng''s pupils shrank, "Is this an idea to hit the child in my belly?" "I see that there are signs, I don''t know if your baby will be a boy or a girl." Song Jin understood the meaning of Xiao Liu''s words. If it were a girl, it would be quite fine. If it were a boy, he would probably be remembered. Song Jin just wanted to say that Mrs. Liu was thinking of something good. She would definitely not agree to adopt the child to Qin Mingsong. That night, Qin Chi came back smelling of alcohol. As soon as he went to bed after taking a bath, Song Jin mentioned to Qin Chi what Xiao Liu had said during the day. Qin Chi''s face darkened, "This is just Grandma''s idea. My uncle won''t agree to it. There is nothing wrong with his body. If he really wants to have a child, he can find a woman to have it." "You said grandma is doing this every day, why don''t you stop for a while?" Song Jin thought of the old Liu family, looking even older than at this time in the previous life. Qin Chi patted the back of her hand gently and said, "The families are separated. We can''t control these things." "When you return to Beijing this time, will you take Huzi and Niuniu with you?" "Keep it with your parents. You also know that mother won''t follow us to Beijing." Qin Chi decided to keep the child with his parents. "We will leave a few more people here to watch them." Song Jin felt reluctant to give up. But she did not refute Qin Chi''s decision. The next daily routine proceeds in an orderly manner. The clan first opened an ancestral hall to worship their ancestors, which was very grand, and clan members who were outside came back one after another. Then there was a three-day flowing banquet. Qin Chi invited his masters and classmates who had taught him in the past. Not only that, but on the first day, the prefect and county magistrate also came over. In the past, in this remote area of ??the mountain, apart from people from the village, few outsiders came. Because Qin Chi was the number one scholar, there was a lot of traffic and excitement during this period. It wasn''t until half a month later that it gradually calmed down. Chapter 339 Lao Qin’s gossip Chapter 339 Lao Qins gossip The fourth room of the Qin family is in the main room. At this time, the four brothers of the Qin family and Qin Chi were here. It was Mr. Liu who called the heads of the family over and said they had important matters to discuss. Among the juniors, there are more Qin Chi, and I dont know why. Old man Qin took out his treasured tea leaves and brewed a pot of good tea for his sons and grandson. Everyone had a good time chatting about what had happened over the years. "I asked you to come here because Si''er is getting older now. The old blind man said that he was no longer destined to have children, so he was thinking of giving him an adopted son. The older man''s wife is about to give birth, and I want to..." Before Old Liu finished speaking, Qin Mingsong interrupted: "Mom! I don''t agree." Qin Mingsong''s voice of rejection grew louder unconsciously, "Children will happen in the future. It''s not like I can''t have children." "I told you, the old blind man said that you will have no heirs in this life..." Old Liu firmly believed in the old blind man''s words. Qin Mingsong glanced apologetically at Qin Chi, who didn''t look good. He couldn''t say anything at this time. He could only persuade Old Liu, "Mom, most fortune telling is a lie. Just listen to it occasionally. Earlier, Xiu''er lost her first child because of fortune telling, haven''t you learned your lesson yet?" Old Liu''s expression changed drastically. He raised his finger and pointed at Qin Mingsong. He was so angry that he couldn''t speak for a moment, "You, are you blaming me? She was possessed by evil spirits at that time!" She wanted to talk to Old Man Qin. On the contrary, several people did not stand on her side, and Mrs. Liu couldn''t help but feel angry at her son''s inconsiderateness. "Okay, okay, you can complain. Since you can give birth, then give birth to her as soon as possible." Qin Mingsong suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "Xiu''er has hurt her foundation and needs to be taken good care of." "Where''s the one you keep outside?" Mrs. Liu knew that Bai Cuiwei was not dead. Qin Mingsong suddenly lost his temper, "She was pregnant for several months last time, and the baby suddenly disappeared, which also hurt her body." "The wife at home is injured, and the one outside is also injured. If you are not willing to adopt me, then take another concubine. I think the coral is good, and the **** is big and good for fertility." The coral in Mr. Liu''s mouth was Song The maid next to Xiu is also the only maid. Qin Mingsong looked ugly, "I don''t agree." Mr. Liu added: "There is a maid over Bai Cuiwei''s side called Hazhu, oh, her name is Rouzhu. You can also ask her to spread the branches and leaves in the fourth room." "Mom! Let''s talk about this at home. Don''t say it outside. You don''t want the reputation, but I still want it." Qin Mingsong always tortured Mr. Liu mentally and physically at home. Old Man Qin originally wanted to pretend to be deaf and dumb, but now he had to say: "Nonsense! How can a child born from a concubine be compared with a child born from a direct descendant?" "Then Song Xiu must be able to give birth, do you think I don''t want to?" Old Liu was bitter and resentful, "I told you to adopt, but you are not happy. If there is no boy in the fourth room, I will not be able to rest in peace even if I die. This is serious. Qin Mingsong''s reputation was not very good to begin with, and if he was unfilial, he would end his official career. "Mom! I heard that Doctor Jing has returned from the capital this time. You can ask him to take a look at Xiu''er." Boss Qin on the side also said: "Mom, don''t worry too much. The fourth child''s absence is probably because fate has not come yet. This year, the fourth child will be twenty-four. Look at Uncle Gen''s family, they can be forty years old." Let Aunt Laogen get pregnant, and the fourth childs life will still be long. "Yes, the days are still long. It''s too early for mother to worry." Qin Laosan said in agreement. "I don''t think the fourth brother is in a hurry. I''ll ask Dr. Jing to give the fourth brother and sister a look first. I really don''t think it''s good to accept another one." Qin Lao''er had long known from his wife that not only the eldest son was worried about his mother''s troubles, but his family was also worried that his mother would not be able to adopt him at Dafang''s place, so he moved to his house. Although the fourth son had a great reputation, You can live a good life if you adopt a child, but who would be willing to give it to someone else if your own child can be kept alive? Qin Chi was silent for a long time, then suddenly smiled and said: "My grandma, don''t tell me that my uncle is only twenty-four, he is still young. Even at his grandfather''s age, he can have a baby. If you don''t believe me, you can try to get a concubine for your grandfather." Try, Im sure there will be another brother-in-law. As soon as these words came out. The room fell silent for a moment. Everyone''s eyes turned to Qin Chi. Boss Qin wanted his son to shut up, yet he dared to say such things. Qin Lao Er and Qin Lao San just wanted to give Qin Chi a thumbs up. This was to show his grandma that he had arrived, and they immediately thought of a way to go back. As expected of you, Da Lang. Cutting flesh with a soft knife is very painful. Sure enough, Old Liu glared at Qin Chi. The most unexpected thing is that old man Qin is actually a little moved. He has some spare money in his hands these years, so he should enjoy it. Old Liu raised the pillow and wanted to hit Qin Chi, but accidentally saw Old Qin''s expression, and suddenly she became angry. She hit the pillow hard at Old Qin, and cursed regardless: "Damn old man! What''s that expression on your face? Do you want to take a concubine? Don''t even think about it! As long as I live, the little goblin you raised outside will never come into your home." "Shrew! You old shrew, you''ve rebelled against God." Old Qin stood up suddenly and raised his fist at Old Liu. Old Mrs. Liu snorted coldly, "Don''t you think I know about you and the little widow? I don''t want to talk about you. I''m not too impatient at my age." "Cough cough cough..." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi coughed a few times, stood up and walked out. It''s not easy for Boss Qin to stay, "Mom, there are still things at home, I''ll go back first." "I remembered, my wife asked me to go home early." Qin Laoer followed. Qin Laosan also stood up, "I have something to do too." The three brothers went out, and Qin Mingsong could only stand silently, then turned and walked outside. Old Qin became angry and stared at Old Liu. Old Liu is very courageous. Qin Mingsong is at home and Qin Chi is also in the village. The old man is too proud to make trouble at this time. What followed was a low-pitched exchange of curses between the two. Several people who walked to the front yard stopped in unison. Qin Laosan said: "Brother, the old man really got involved with the little widow?" "It''s hard to say that." Boss Qin thought about it and it was really something that the old man could do. He turned to Qin Mingsong and said, "Fourth, do you know about this?" "I only found out today." Qin Mingsong turned to look at Qin Chi, who was calm and composed at the side, "If Dalang hadn''t suggested that the old man take a concubine, my mother probably wouldn''t have said it out of hand." "It''s better to know earlier, so you can be more defensive." Qin Chi straightened his sleeves and said, "It''s best not to let the old man cause a scandal. If anything happens, it won''t have much impact on me. I''m afraid it will only affect my uncle, so I''ll spend more time at home." Thoughts. When officials inspect, they will also look at the familys situation. Qin Mingsong could not refute this. He has not yet entered the court as an official, so his influence is not small. Then everyone talked for a while and then dispersed. Qin Chi and Boss Qin went home together. The father and son walked aside and met some villagers along the way. They smiled and greeted the uncles and aunties without putting on any airs, which was very popular. Chapter 340 Song Jin gave birth to a son Chapter 340 Song Jin gives birth to a son Qin Chi seemed to have a leisurely life. He stayed with Song Jin every day while she was expecting her child, and occasionally received visiting classmates and scholars. Among those who came often were Meng Qingrui and Le Yan. The two are still studying and plan to take the provincial examination again next year. I came here knowing that Qin Chi would stay in his hometown for a while, so I came to ask Qin Chi for advice when I got the chance. Qin Chi did not hesitate to help the two of them clear up their doubts. Putting down the pen in his hand, Meng Qingrui rubbed his arm, "Qi''an, do you think I can hit it this time?" "It depends on luck." Qin Chi couldn''t say anything against his will, "Your exam luck has always been good." "I failed last time." Meng Qingrui felt relieved after hearing this, but still said the same on his face, "However, I still want to accept your good advice." He didn''t want to take the exam in the first place and wanted to go to the capital to join Qin Chi. His father said that he needed to have leverage to join the other side. He was not even a civil servant. Even if Qin Chi wanted to arrange an official position for him, it would be difficult for him. He must at least take the exam first. A lifter. Immediately, Meng Qingrui said: "When I win the imperial examination, I will go to the capital to seek refuge with you. Sir, according to my knowledge, if I win the imperial examination, it will be a huge success, and there is no hope of becoming a Jinshi." Being a scholar in junior high school was luck. Now he is studying hard, and Qin Chi has drawn up a rough range of test questions. According to this, if he can pass the exam, it will be his destiny. If he fails, he will still go to Qin Chi. At worst, you can just follow him as an errand boy. When Meng Qingrui came up with this idea, he felt relieved. Le Yan, who was next to him, heard the conversation between the two and felt confused, "Brother Qi''an, if I don''t take the exam now, will I be able to get ahead just by virtue of being a scholar?" "It depends on what your expectations are." Qin Chi probably knows what the two of them are thinking, "Some people think that being a petty official means getting ahead, and some people think that being a prince is the only way to get ahead. It all depends on one''s expectations for the future." Le Yan was stunned. Meng Qingrui also had nothing to say. Qin Chi added: "A person''s expectations may be big or small, and they may change at any time. When you took part in the imperial examination earlier, you thought that you must at least be a scholar first. When you become a scholar, you will think about recruiting people. When you become a civil servant, you will probably want to take the Jinshi exam again, even if it is far away for you two." The two of them listened thoughtfully. The truth is not difficult to understand, but it is often ignored by oneself. The two of them said they would join Qin Chi in the future and work under him, but they were not sure how far they could go. They only know that following Qin Chi is their best choice at the moment. Qin Chi patted Meng Qingrui on the shoulder and said, "I can''t figure this out, so don''t think about it for now. As for your future, we have to wait until you pass the provincial examination." He can support two people, and they must have that ability. Qin Chi asked Meng Qingrui to study more with Magistrate Meng, not in terms of academic matters, but to learn how to be an official. It was dark, Qinjiagou was in a remote location, and the road was being built recently, so it was not easy for carriages to travel. Qin Chi asked someone to clean up the guest room for the two of them. Another half month passed. This area became vibrant because Qin Chi came back to visit his relatives. Folks from all over the country have benefited from it. The day the number one scholar''s archway was built. The archway is less than four feet high and about three feet wide. It has four pillars, three bays and three floors. It has a curly grass-style head ridge, a treasure top in the middle, and "Zhuangyuanfang" engraved on the forehead. It is also called "Zhuangyuanfang" because it is made of red sandy conglomerate. "Red Archway". There were dragon and lion dances and drums beating, making it very lively. Many villagers came to watch the excitement. Even the prefect and the magistrate of Yixian County came to deliver speeches, and Qin Chi also showed his face. Almost everyone in the Qin family went to join in the fun. Only Song Jin was waiting at home to give birth and regretfully missed it. "It''s a pity that I couldn''t see it with my own eyes." Song Jin could still feel the happy atmosphere at home. Yinlong smiled and said, "You can wait until the child comes out and then go and have a look." Suddenly, Song Jin felt a pain in her abdomen and felt like she was falling, "Aunt Long, I feel like I''m about to give birth." Yinlong stood up, "I''m going to call someone right now." He hurried to the door and said loudly: "Ah Qi, Mu Ting, go and tell Po Wen to come over! Let the kitchen boil hot water..." After giving the instructions, the household affairs were carried out in an orderly manner. At the same time, someone hurriedly went outside to notify Qin Chi. Just as Qin Chi and the magistrate and others got off the high platform they had set up, they were going to attend a banquet. When they heard Qin Ba coming over to report that his wife was about to give birth, Qin Chi immediately said sorry to the magistrate and others, and left the banquet early and hurried away. . "Master Qin, this is..." Someone next to him looked at Qin Chi''s back in confusion and asked. The magistrate laughed and said: "Just now his servants came to report that his wife is going to give birth. Today, Mr. Qin''s family is having a double happiness. Just wait and go to the Full Moon Bar." "Haha, this is a good thing." Magistrate Meng also joked, "My second son grew up with Mr. Qin and has been a classmate for more than ten years. He said that Mr. Qin and his wife have a very good relationship. A woman who gives birth to a child will follow the gate of hell." Both, Mr. Qin left in a hurry, he must be worried. " "It''s human nature." Many people expressed their understanding. Song Jin''s birth was not smooth. The midwife Wen invited four. Two were brought from the capital, and the other two Wen Pos were locals. They had delivered the twins earlier. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! To be serious, Song Jin''s pregnancy was a bit difficult to deliver. Fortunately, Mrs. Wen had a lot of experience. After much trouble, the baby was finally born in the middle of the night. Afterwards, Song Jin fell into a coma from exhaustion. After the child was born, a local Wen woman in Huizhou immediately used chopsticks with cotton **** dipped in coptis water to gently wash away the dirt on the newborn''s upper and lower palates, upper and lower lips, tongue and gums. Weizhi "eats Coptis chinensis". The two stable women from the capital also knew that this was a local custom in Huizhou, so they did not stop it. Qin Chi didn''t sleep a wink all night. "Congratulations to the master, he is a big fat boy." A stable mother-in-law took out the child with a smile on her face. The other Wenpo and Yinlong helped Song Jin clean up. "Okay, give me a reward!" Li''s voice came from outside, saying that he would give a reward. At this moment, when Qin Chi wanted to enter the house, Mrs. Wen hurriedly stopped her, "Goodbye, sir, you can''t go in now. Madam has just given birth and it''s not suitable to be exposed to the wind." Po Wen said this nicely. In fact, some customs do not allow men to enter the delivery room. This time Song Jin gave birth not in the master bedroom, but moved from the living room to a side room next to her to wait for the birth. "My wife is in a coma?" Qin Chi asked with bloodshot eyes. Po Wen nodded and said hurriedly: "Don''t worry, sir. Madam is just exhausted, just take a nap and you''ll be fine." Qin Chi was not going to feel relieved after hearing a few words from Granny Wen. He turned to Doctor Jing who had been waiting outside the delivery room for a long time and said, "Mr. Jing, please go in and show my wife." "I''ll go in first and take your pulse." Doctor Jing went in carrying the medicine box as a gift. When he entered, he smelled a strong smell of blood. Doctor Jing was used to it and carefully went to the bed to check Song Jin''s pulse. After a while, he put away the pulse pillow and closed the medicine box. Yinlong asked: "Doctor Jing, how are you doing?" "I fell asleep because I was too tired. When Madam wakes up, she will be able to recover as long as she takes good care of herself. Madam''s body has always been in good shape." Doctor Jing said with a smile while holding his beard. He went out carrying the medicine box. Another prescription was prescribed and asked to make medicine. At the same time, he told Song Jin''s situation. Qin Chi completely let go of his hanging heart. Boss Qin sent someone to the old house to report the good news. Mrs. Li asked the kitchen to cook a large pot of red eggs to announce the good news and distribute them to relatives and friends. According to customs here, happy eggs are a symbol of good luck, symbolizing new life and hope. All the villagers in Qinjiagou came to congratulate each other with a red egg in their hands early in the morning. They were all very happy. Chapter 341 wash three dynasties Chapter 341 Washing Three Dynasties Song Jin woke up in the evening. After waking up and eating something, I felt a lot more energetic. The room has been cleaned by Yinlong and others, and the sheets and bedding have been changed. There is no longer a smell of blood, only a faint fragrance of vegetation. This made Song Jin feel a lot more comfortable. "Little miss, are you awake?" Yinlong said in surprise, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?" "No, it''s fine." This was not her first child, so Song Jin adapted quickly. She looked around the room but didn''t see the child. "In his grandma''s house." As soon as Yinlong finished saying this, she saw Mrs. Li coming in with her baby in her arms. After a few caring greetings, Song Jin took the baby and nursed it. The swaddled baby was just a tiny ball, but it made her heart melt. After the child had eaten enough, Mrs. Li did not take the child away, but placed her next to Song Jin to accompany her. Song Jin was lying on his side, his eyes falling on the child, his eyebrows were extremely gentle. Qin Chi sneaked in and saw the rare gentle side of his wife. He strode forward and sat on the edge of the bed. Just then, Song Jin looked up at him. He subconsciously stretched out his hand and smoothed Song Jin''s hair on his temples with a very gentle movement, "Thank you for your hard work, ma''am." Song Jin pursed her lips and smiled softly, "My husband, do you feel sorry for me?" "Yeah, I feel bad." Qin Chi admitted it with unprecedented generosity. This actually made Song Jin slightly stunned, and then the smile on his eyebrows became stronger, "My husband, please pay more attention to matters at home." "Yes." "Then it''s about cleaning up." "You only need to take good care of yourself, and leave the rest to us." Qin Chi will try his best to shoulder the responsibilities of a father. He was particularly concerned about the birth of his second son. The baby is three days old. Qin Chi got up early and accompanied Li to collect fresh tea leaves, fresh orange leaves and moxa mugwort from the mountain, put them in a basin, brew them with boiling water, and then scrubbed the baby''s body of fetal dirt, blood dirt, feces dirt, etc. It is commonly known as "washing three dynasties" in Huizhou. After the baby was washed and dressed, Yinlong moved another bench. "What is this for?" Song Jin was surprised. When she was pregnant with twins, she never got out of bed and did not watch her mother-in-law carefully baptize the child. Li''s eyebrows were curved and she said happily: "Drill into the dog''s hole." Song Jin was speechless for a moment. Qin Chi on the side also laughed, "My son got into a dog hole just three days after he was born." Ms. Li raised her head and rolled her eyes at him, "You did it when you were a kid, so you have the nerve to laugh at your son." Seeing Qin Chi deflated, Song Jin couldn''t help laughing. Yinlong looked at it from the side and said with a smile: "My uncle is going to deliver the wedding wine later." "Okay, I will definitely do this beautifully." Qin Chi took the child from Li''s arms and held it for a while without skill. Everyone is very happy. Only Song Jin''s smile unconsciously faded a little while listening to the delivery of wedding wine. Starting from the day of Xisanchao, the father will go out to deliver wedding wine. This outing usually refers to sending the child to the maternal grandfather''s home, and then to other relatives, such as the aunt''s and sister-in-law''s homes. When Qin Chi went to the kitchen. Xiao Liu and Mrs. Lin have just made the wedding wine. Generally, wedding wine is made by frying eggs into poached eggs, commonly known as chicken eggs and turtles, and adding rice wine, fermented rice, and sugar. The wedding wine was served in a big teapot. If a boy is born, cypress branches and green bamboo leaves should be placed in the spout, while if a girl is born, only a piece of red paper should be lined under the lid. Qin Chi was about to set off. "Hey, Da Lang, wait a minute, you need to bring wedding eggs when sending wedding wine!" Xiao Liu quickly reminded loudly. Mrs. Lin lifted out a basket of red eggs. Qin Chi took it and looked at it. There were twenty-four red cooked eggs. Except for the child''s maternal grandfather''s family, which accepts two children, the rest of the family members generally do not. On the day when the child is one month old, all relatives who receive the wedding wine will give eggs in return. Generally, in addition to giving eggs, relatives also need two kilograms of cakes and some sugar, sesame oil, and soybean oil. My grandfathers family would send eighty to one hundred eggs, plus various cooking oils and old hens, as well as three to five pieces of cooling clothes for the children. This is a local custom in Huizhou. However, the childs maternal grandfather is not here. Qin Chi thought about sending it to the pharmacy. The Song Jin and Xing Zhou families were very close, but she didn''t say it, and often regarded them as her natal family. Last time, the wedding banquet for the twins was sent to these two families. Mrs. Lin couldn''t help but warned again: "Da Lang, the wedding wine is distributed in bowls. A chicken and turtle, a little fermented rice and sugar water are added into a bowl. Each family member who meets will have a bowl." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Thank you for your hard work, Aunt Two and Aunt Three." Qin Chi said with gratitude. Xiao Liu waved her hand and said, "No matter how polite we are, we are all one family." "Da Lang is a heretic when he says that." Mrs. Lin also said something. Qin Chi smiled and said again before carrying his things and going out. There was a carriage parked at the door. It was just to make it easier for Qin Chi to send the wedding wine. Outside there was not only Old Li Tou, the coachman, but also a handsome young man, the grown-up Saburo. Today he took the initiative to accompany his eldest brother to deliver the wedding wine. Sanlang said with a smile: "Brother, people are in high spirits when happy events happen, and looking at you becomes a bit more handsome." Qin Chi raised his eyebrows and asked, "When did you learn to speak glibly?" "I''ve always been honest, brother, don''t think wrongly." Sanlang said as he followed Qin Chi into the carriage. Lao Li Tou drove out of the village. Qin Ba didn''t know where he came from, so he jumped and sat on the car''s shaft. The two were outside the carriage. I heard Sanlang and Qin Chi chatting. The topic ranged from the gossip in the village, to the big and small things that happened in Yixian County, and then to what he had seen and heard in Huizhou, etc. Sanlang was always talking, a bit eloquent. Qin Chi has gained some experience. Outside, Qin Ba and Lao Li Tou also felt that they had gained a lot of experience. In fact, Lao Li Tou was still feeling emotional in his heart. "It''s delayed, it''s delayed!" Old Li Tou muttered. Qin Ba leaned closer and asked in a low voice: "What was the delay?" "A good prospect for gathering information." Old Li Tou didn''t say it clearly, but Qin Ba understood. Qin Ba smiled and said in a low voice: "I will suggest to the young master later that we take that boy to the capital. Keeping him will save us a lot of trouble." "It''s really good." Old Li Tou thought he could mention it. The carriage left Qinjiagou and drifted away. The villagers watched the carriage leaving and started chatting. Now everyone knew that Qin Chi had a fat boy in his family. The wedding reception went very smoothly. No one dared to look at Qin Chi, on the contrary, everyone was very enthusiastic. Qin Chi originally thought that he could stay with his child until the full moon, but news came from the capital. Compared with the previous two families, the Yuan family is slightly better. After all, Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty had a certain relationship with Yuan Shangshu, but he only confiscated 90% of his family wealth and asked him to resign and return to his hometown. As for other Yuan family members who are in prison, they will be sentenced according to the law. In addition, I heard that Emperor Ming Cheng asked about Qin Chi at the court meeting. Yan Xianqing said that he went back to his hometown to visit his relatives. According to this situation, Qin Chi could delay reporting to Dali Temple for up to a month. Counting the days, excluding the time on the road, he would not be able to stay in Huizhou for long. Chapter 342 One wave comes after another Chapter 342: One wave comes after another Another half month passed. Qin Chi took the lead back to the capital. Since Song Jin was not yet out of confinement, he temporarily stayed at his home in Huizhou. Song Jin watched Qin Chi leave that day. Before leaving, Qin Chi asked someone to pretend to be himself and went to Huangshan privately to meet his uncle and his eldest son. Long before his second son was born, Qin Chi took his son and daughter to Huangshan to see the sea of ??clouds. Later, Huzi "rescued" a scribe. It was said that the scribe accidentally stepped on a trap when he went to watch the scenery. Huzi discovered it and asked someone to rescue him. Afterwards, the scribe fell in love with Huzi very much and decided to accept Huzi as his disciple, and offered to take Huzi with him to teach him. The scribe happened to be He Lianpu''s staff. As a result, Huzi followed He Lianpu. Huzi is already six years old, he started enlightenment at the age of three, and has been studying for three years. He is very well behaved and taught by Li. Not to mention it is just a show, the scribe himself was very happy to see it. Qin Chi was also taught by a teacher arranged by his grandfather when he was a few years old. Therefore, I don''t think there is anything wrong with Huzi studying with his husband at a young age. Taking advantage of Huzi''s convenience. When Helian Pu wanted to see Niu Niu, he would send someone to the Qin family to pick her up and take her to the Huangshan Hot Spring Resort. The excuse to the outside world was that his brother missed his sister, so he would take her to stay with him for a few days, etc. This time, on the day of Qin Chi''s second son''s baptism ceremony, He Lianpu also had people secretly send him something, but he didn''t pay as much attention to it as the twins. Back then, when he was so ill, he still insisted on coming to Qinjiagou to visit the twins. This time I just sent someone to deliver something. After all, the eldest son or the eldest daughter are different. Song Jin held her white and tender little son in her arms, and couldn''t help but lower her head and kiss her. The sweet and fragrant baby made her forget about the sadness of parting with Qin Chi in the blink of an eye. "Baby, what should I name you?" Song Jin knew that in all likelihood it would not be his turn to choose the name, "I don''t get the big names, the nicknames are always mine. Your eldest brother is called Huzi, what should you be called?... Gouzi?" "puff-" Yinlong laughed and said, "Don''t say goodbye, little lady. The child is too old to bother you?" "If you don''t call it a dog, how about calling it a lion?" Song Jin joked. Yinlong laughed again, "The little kid is too noisy at night, so why not call him a good boy so that he can be a good boy in the future." "Be good?" Song Jin raised his eyebrows and immediately smiled, "She sounds like a little girl." It was not Song Jinlai''s turn to name the child. A bunch of elders in the family were vying for a name. Mrs. Li said that she should write down each name and wait until she went to the temple to have her horoscope tested and asked the master which name matched the horoscope and which one was the most suitable. . Mrs. Li came in with the children''s clothes. I saw them playing with their children, and I thought it was pretty good when they heard their children being nicknamed Guaiguai. "It''s better to be called Guaiguai than his elder brother who is more noisy." Mr. Li made the final decision. So a certain little kid got a nickname. The day of the full moon arrived soon, and the banquet was held in Qinjiagou. Since Qin Chi had already left Huizhou, some local forces in Huizhou, such as the prefect and the magistrate''s family, just asked people in the government to send a copy. Congratulations, but did not come in person. During the dinner, Song Jin put on ugly makeup and showed up once holding her child. Next, Mrs. Li held her child and socialized among the female relatives. It took a month to recuperate the body. Song Jin recovered well after giving birth, but received some bad news. On his way to the capital, Qin Chi experienced several assassinations and was once in danger, which almost cost him his life. . Song Jin read the icy and cold description, which was thrilling. From then on, he kept thinking about this matter in his heart. It was not until Qin Chi had someone send back the safety letter that his mood returned to normal. Song Jin usually took care of her children and went to the medicine shop. When she had time, she concocted some rare medicinal materials by herself and replenished her inventory. It seems like I have returned to the days in Qinjiagou many years ago, it is very quiet and peaceful. Occasionally Song Jin and Song Xiu bickered, or watched the old Liu family making trouble, or watching the four families committing suicide. For example, the old Liu family came to hug Guaiguai. Her desire to adopt was not dead, but she was forcibly suppressed by Qin Mingsong. . Another example is Bai Cuiwei, who was living in the nunnery. She saw that Qin Mingsong had not come to look for her for many days, so she wrote a touching letter. As a result, the letter did not reach Qin Mingsong, but fell into the hands of Song Xiu. In the end, Song Xiu made a big fuss and published the letter at home, and even Song Jin saw the contents of the letter. Song Xiu didn''t see through it. But Song Jin could understand. This letter was written deliberately by Bai Cuiwei to express his gratitude to Song Xiu. It is not known how much love Bai Cuiwei has for Qin Mingsong now, but it is certainly not as much as what was described in the letter, because there is a hint of exaggeration in the words. "In all my life, I have never seen such a shameless person in the world." Yinlong was shocked by this. Song Jin smiled and said, "She is a talented woman and reads a lot of books. She is different from ordinary women like us." Hearing this, Yinlong couldn''t say anything, "Is this a talented woman?" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Well, it''s normal for a talented woman to be sentimental." Compared to Yinlong''s incomprehension, Song Jin was somewhat understanding, "Not only is Bai Cuiwei''s arm disabled, but she is also unable to have children, so there is almost no hope." "Well, that''s a poor woman too." "Yes, poor woman." Poor people must be hateful. Bai Cuiwei obviously has a good future, but she insists on choosing a married man. She even breaks up with her family because of this. Now, she can only go to the dark side to gain a reputation of deep love and no regrets. Maybe in the future Qin Mingsong will come forward and she can live a good life. It is also impossible for Qin Mingsong to give up on her. Not just because of Bai Daru''s existence. For the sake of reputation, Qin Mingsong cannot abandon Bai Cuiwei for the same reason as Bai Cuiwei. That would seem ridiculous and hypocritical. The world is not very tolerant of cold-blooded and hypocritical people. On the contrary, it is much more tolerant of people who fall in love and do wrong things. Qin Mingsong and Bai Cuiwei are both smart people. You can guess what their choice will be without even thinking about it. They are destined to be entangled in this life. In their previous life, they were in love until they grew old. In this life, Qin Mingsong changed his wife, but he ended up living like this. It is ironic. "Tuk-tuk." There was a few gentle knocks on the door. This knocking method is very particular, and it can be regarded as the secret code for the agreement between Song Jin and his men. Song Jin put down the child in her arms and told Yinlong to take care of it. When he went out, he saw Mu Ting with an anxious face. When Mu Ting saw Song Jin, she immediately knelt down and said, "My boss, help me!" "What happened?" Song Jin was shocked. "Brother Wei sent a letter asking for help! One of us accidentally got something from the exiled Yang family, and then we were hunted down all the way. Brother Wei and the others are about to arrive in Huizhou!" Mu Ting told the story in one breath. Song Jin suddenly felt slightly surprised, "You go and gather people first, and we will go rescue them immediately." "yes!" Chapter 343 Huaxi Town Chapter 343 Huaxi Town Song Jin went back to the house and looked at the little baby for a while, "Aunt Long, I have something to do and I have to leave for a few days." "At this time?" Yinlong looked back at the infant baby in surprise. She couldn''t quite hear the movement outside the door just now, but she vaguely guessed what happened. Song Jin added: "The child should be fed goat milk first." The matter of having a baby boy and a girl was ahead of time, and the family had already prepared a milk-producing ewe, so Song Jin didn''t have to worry about the baby being hungry when she went out. Song Jin originally wanted to talk to Mr. Li, but after asking, Mr. Qin happened to take Mr. Li to the town. Wei Yuan''s matter there was urgent, so he told Yinlong and asked her to tell Mrs. Li. Song Jin hesitated and added: "If my mother-in-law asks me what I am going to do, Aunt Long only needs to say that there is something important and she will come back when the matter is done." Yinlong knew that Song Jin didn''t want to mention it anymore, so he was sensible and didn''t ask further, "Will the young lady''s trip be dangerous?" There are certainly dangers in this trip. But Song Jin would not say, "Lou Ruhan will bring someone with him. Don''t worry, Aunt Long, I will pay attention to safety." Mu Ting took the lead to inform others. Qin Qi prepared the carriage. So, Song Jin left in a carriage. On the carriage, the person changed into a man''s attire, and his face was slightly disguised. I didn''t just put it on at home and go out because I didn''t want to be caught by people in the village and cause misunderstanding. Wait for Song Jin to arrive in town. Lou Ruhan has gathered more than twenty experts, and the group of people are all dressed as bodyguards, so they will not attract much attention when traveling like this. It was precisely for this reason that Xing Lun opened a small **** agency the year before last to cover it up. Lou Ruhan is in charge of the **** agency. Lou Ruhan''s growth over the years has made Song Jin see some shadows of his previous life. However, he is much better now than in his previous life, and he looks more like a normal person. In his previous life, he was very lonely and unlovable. The big reason for this change in this life is that his sister did not die. Now that he has grown up, he is able to stand alone. After leaving the town, Song Jin abandoned the carriage and rode a horse instead. The destination of this trip is Honggu County. Traveling day and night, riding on horseback. Song Jin and others rushed to Honggu County under the stars and the moon to connect with their local people who stayed here. It was learned that Wei Yuan finally disappeared in Huaxi Town. Song Jin hurried to Huaxi Town again. The contact person took Song Jin to a house where he would stay. When entering, Song Jin unexpectedly saw Xing Lun. Xing Lun''s appearance was dusty. Xing Lun was also surprised to see Song Jin coming here, "My boss? Why are you here?" "I just came over as soon as I received the news." Song Jin looked around and smelled the faint smell of blood in the room, "Who was injured?" "I received the news and rushed to rescue one person. Several brothers were also injured." Xing Lun came here as a temporary decision. They were passing by here by boat and happened to receive a signal for help. The letter for help sent by Wei Yuan was sent to a stronghold in Honggu County, and then the person in charge of the message sent help to the nearby people, so it was not only sent to Song Jin. Xing Lun arrived in time and rescued one of Wei Yuan''s men. This man diverted some of the pursuers for Wei Yuan, but he didn''t know where Wei Yuan was hiding at this time. Xing Lun said: "I sent people to look for him, but the news has not been returned for a while." "Thanks a lot." Song Jin saw his tired look and said, "Leave this place to me for now. You can go and rest first." Xing Lun suddenly woke up when he heard this, but his voice was hoarse after staying up late, "I can still hold on." "Go and rest quickly." Song Jin''s tone left no room for doubt, "Sitting here can''t help you much. Why don''t you go get some sleep first? I''ll have someone wake you up when there''s news." "Well, okay then." The corner of Xing Lun''s mouth curled up slightly, "I couldn''t make it back to the second young master''s full moon banquet. I feel very sorry. I have prepared a gift for him and will give it to him when I return to Huizhou. go." "Okay, I''ll thank you on that kid''s behalf." Song Jin raised his hand to signal him to go and rest quickly. Xing Lun bowed slightly and saluted Song Jin, then turned around and went down. Song Jin sat quietly in the hall and drank half a cup of tea. The people sent to inquire still had no news. After thinking about it, Song Jin got up and walked out, asking to meet the person Xing Lun saved. Someone leads the way. After a while, I went to a guest room. The smell of medicine and blood mixed in the house. Lying on the bed was a lean young man with a gauze band tied on his chest, which seemed to be leaking blood. When he saw someone coming in, he was stunned at first. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The young man had never seen Song Jin, but he recognized Mu Ting who was following Song Jin. Mu Ting strode forward, asked concernedly about the young man''s injury, and then reminded him: "Brother Mancang, this is the boss." "ah?" Full of surprise, "My boss is here?" When he said it, he was shocked and faux pas, and he struggled to remember. Song Jin quickly stopped him, "Don''t move around. Lie down and talk first." As soon as Song Jin said these words, Mancang did not move. Mancang said anxiously: "My boss, please save Brother Wei." "Don''t worry, I will save you even if you don''t tell me." Song Jin said sincerely that he would save people. Mu Ting said for Song Jin: "My boss is here just to save you." Mancang thought so too. If it wasn''t to save people, why would Song Jin appear here? Xing Lun also mentioned his situation earlier. The enemy is in the light, they are in the dark. Even if you want to find someone now, you can''t do it blatantly. The group of people who secretly searched Wei Yuan are still in Huaxi Town. Huaxi Town is neither big nor small. But it is not easy to find someone. After careful questioning, and seeing that it was similar to what Xing Lun said, Song Jin told Ren Haosheng to take care of her and took Muting out. After about a quarter of an hour. Song Jin and others all put on local clothes and went out, and then arrived at the place where Mancang finally separated from Wei Yuan. This is a small bamboo forest outside the town. Local people often come here to dig bamboo shoots. There is a living lake to the west of the bamboo forest. The scenery here is quite good, but it is not suitable for farming and is a bit desolate. It had been three to five days since the incident happened, and the people who were chasing Wei Yuan and the others had already left the place. Song Jin came here just to check if Wei Yuan had left any clues here. "Madam, do you want me to contact the trading company?" Qin Qi reminded hurriedly. Song Jin turned to look at her, "Will they have news?" "If you have, you''ll know if you ask." Qin Qi knew that he couldn''t just sit idly by. Song Jin pondered for a moment and said, "Okay." Qin Qi bowed and retreated. After the others left, Lou Ruhan glanced at Qin Qi who was leaving, then turned to Song Jin, "My boss, do you really want to alarm Shun''an Trading Company?" "It would be a good thing to have more people help with the search." Song Jin could only hope that Wei Yuan could escape and not fall into the hands of the other party. Chapter 344 Mr. Yang Ge’s suicide note Chapter 344 Mr. Yang Ges suicide note According to the route described by Mancang. When Song Jin entered the bamboo forest, he found the code left by Wei Yuan and looked at some scrawled paintings on a bamboo. After walking for a while, I found another secret code. This secret code is different from the previous one, and it is difficult for non-members to associate it with one. In order to prevent outsiders from noticing the abnormality, Xing Lun also put a lot of thought into using more than one secret code. If accidentally seen by an outsider, it just looks like graffiti, and there is still no identical one. It is difficult for the people who are following them to think that it is a secret code. Even if they suspect it, it is useless. It is impossible to see through their escape. Less than half an hour later. Passed through most of the bamboo forest. This bamboo forest is actually a small hill. When Song Jin walked down, under several clusters of bamboos and near the lakeside, there were several large stones as tall as an adult piled together. According to what Mancang said before, he and Wei Yuan once hid in the cracks of the rocks. Song Jin searched carefully. To her surprise, no code was left behind. But judging from the surroundings, more than one group of people came here to search. "Brother Mancang said that he and Wei Yuan separated here, right?" Song Jin asked Lou Ruhan who was standing aside. Lou Ruhan said firmly: "Yes." In response, he looked around again, "Based on his description of the environment, it is undoubtedly here." Several large rocks between the bamboo forest and the lake. There is nothing else like it around here. Song Jin asked the others to disperse and search, "Take these stones as the center and search around to see if there are any clues." "yes!" Groups of three dispersed around. Lou Ruhan and Mu Ting did not leave, and always left someone to protect Song Jin. Song Jin asked again: "Have you thought of anything that would violate the peace?" "I have doubts." Mu Ting said. Song Jin looked at her and said, "Come and listen." "Brother Mancang said that he and Brother Wei separated here, but there is no code left by Brother Wei here. This is unreasonable." Mu Ting knew that she would have encountered this incident herself. Everywhere you stay, there must be a secret message left behind. Besides, the code is broken right here. Song Jin turned around and looked at the lake not far away. The water rippled slightly, and the bamboo leaves floating on it were like small boats, flowing slowly in one direction. "I see!" Mu Ting suddenly exclaimed. Lou Ruhan next to him also seemed to have thought of something. The two of them looked at each other and thought of a place. They ran towards the lake almost at the same time, and then began to search carefully around the lake. Song Jin also thought of something. After Wei Yuan lured away the pursuers in Mancang, he most likely chose the lake as his escape route. Because of this, he would not leave a secret signal. Mu Ting was at the place where the lake had just overflowed. Among the pile of stones, I found a stone. There are a few scratches on the top of the stone. It''s hard to find if you don''t look carefully. Mu Ting handed the small stone to Song Jin, "My boss, this is the code left by Wei Yuan. He did escape from the lake." Song Jin took the small stone and looked at it. The stone was flat, and what Mu Ting saw was the code side. When Song Jin turned it over, there were several drawing marks on the back. This was not the code they had agreed upon. Mu Ting saw it but ignored it, "This is not a code. I don''t know why Brother Wei made these six strokes." Yes, six times. It''s not in the same direction, it looks like graffiti. Song Jin thought about the news saying that Wei Yuan got something, and Mancang said that the thing was on Wei Yuan''s body. What exactly it is, Mancang himself can''t tell clearly. The next moment, Song Jin held the stone in his palm. He turned around suddenly and strode to the gap between the rocks before. Lou Ruhan and Mu Ting hurriedly followed and saw Song Jin starting to search carefully around the stone again, and finally stopped in front of a big stone. There was a scratch on the big stone near the soil. Scratches from top to bottom. It''s big at the top and gradually gets smaller. If you look carefully, you will know that the scratches are new, but they were deliberately covered with soil to make them look very old, and some moss was also put on them. It''s hard to spot if you don''t pay careful attention. The two of them didn''t know what Song Jin was doing. Finally, they saw Song Jin take out a dagger and start digging the soil underneath. Keep digging, digging along the stone. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Master, do you want me to come?" Lou Ruhan asked. Song Jin froze and moved away, "Look around, Wei Yuan may have hidden something here." "How did the boss find out?" Lou Ruhan was surprised, but he followed the instructions, and Mu Ting on the side also came to help. Finally, a thumb-sized piece of bamboo was dug out. Song Jin took it and found a piece of cloth rolled up inside the bamboo. When he pulled it out, he found that it was a letter wrapped in this piece of cloth. The envelope only said "My Son''s Personal Address", and behind it was a seal, which turned out to be Yang Zhengkai''s personal seal. Is this a letter written by Mr. Yang Ge to his son? Song Jin didn''t read the letter here. She put the letter in her sleeve pocket, "Restore this place to its original state, and let''s go." "yes!" Lou Ruhan obeyed the order and filled in the soil in twos and twos. Mu Ting swept away the traces. The two quickly finished cleaning up. Mu Ting asked curiously: "My boss, you haven''t said how you found it yet?" Song Jin handed the stone to them and looked at it. It was the six strokes on the back of the code. "Do you see it clearly? Does it look like a stone character? The word is a little scrawled, but it is indeed a stone character. Before you say When he escaped from the lake, I was wondering if the thing he got was afraid of water. If he was not afraid of water, he would have no problem escaping from the water. What if the thing was not waterproof? This is just a possibility. But it is very possible. If Wei Yuan was not afraid of water and wanted to escape from the lake, he would definitely find a place to hide his things. Song Jin saw the word "stone" and immediately thought of the big rocks on the shore. I stayed there, but I deliberately didnt leave any secret code. According to their usual style, no matter how they think about it, it is against the law. Song Jin suddenly thought that the thing was probably hidden in the big rock, and it was bare there. It was obvious whether the thing could be hidden. The most likely way was to bury it in the ground. Lou Ruhan blew the whistle. After a while, the people who were scattered around to look for the situation began to gather here. The group of people quickly left the bamboo forest. It was as if he had never been here. When Song Jin returned to the house, he happened to see Xing Lun about to go out. When he saw Song Jin coming back, he looked surprised: "My boss is back?" "Are you going out?" Song Jin dismounted. Xing Lun came up to meet Song Jin, took Song Jin''s riding whip, and then handed it to the groom who came to lead the horse. He replied: "I went out just to find you, but you happened to come back, so I don''t have to go out anymore." Song Jin strode towards the house. Xing Lun followed closely. Chapter 345 Officials are too narrow-minded Chapter 345: Officials are very clever The two went to the hall and asked others to leave. Song Jin took out a letter from his sleeve pocket and opened it to read without saying a word. My son''s words: I have been an official for decades, I am honest and self-responsible, and I am not greedy. Now that I am about to pass away, I have a few words to warn you. An honest husband is the foundation of an official career; a corrupt husband is the foundation of his own destruction. I have adhered to this path all my life. Although I have no great achievements, I still have no regrets in my heart. You should carry forward my ambition, observe integrity, and do not be deceived by power or the desire for profit. There is a mystery in my mind that has not been solved for a long time. There are many doubts about the death of the late prince. I suspect that he is not dead, but there is no proof of his suffering. I originally wanted to investigate this matter and report it to the emperor to find out the truth. However, it is difficult to violate the destiny of heaven and this wish cannot be fulfilled. If my son has the opportunity in the future, I hope that the truth will be revealed. I have lived my life with no regrets, but I regret that this matter has not been resolved. But my son should know that things in the world are like chess, unpredictable. You need to be cautious and don''t act rashly to avoid causing disaster. This is all I have to say, and I hope my son will remember it in his heart. Integrity is passed down from generation to generation, which is the motto of my family. Even though I am gone, I should still be smiling. The word father. After reading the content, Song Jin looked strange. Uninformed people may believe the above content, but Song Jin is an insider. Mr. Yang Ge was clearly a man of the late prince, but he said in his suicide note that he suspected that the late prince was not dead and asked his son to continue to investigate and verify. This letter could not only be used to show loyalty to Emperor Ming Cheng, but also indirectly clear the relationship between the Yang family and the former prince. In addition, it can also be used as a handle to threaten the First Prince and Mr. Yan. All in all, this letter is not a real suicide note, it is just a suicide note. In fact, it is a way out for the Yang family before Yang Ge''s death. If the former prince wins in the future, the Yang family will naturally make a comeback; if he loses, and his role as a member of the first prince''s gang is exposed, the Yang family can also produce this suicide note to prove their innocence, and find an excuse to say that they followed the death of their late father and went deep into the country. Tiger''s Den investigates the truth and more. "This official is so clever." Song Jin could only say that he felt ashamed. Far worse. Xing Lun stood aside quietly, "This letter is..." Song Jin said: "We found Wei Yuan''s hiding place first, but his safety is not yet known." "Wait until he takes the initiative to contact us." The only good news is that the other party did not catch Wei Yuan. There is an unknown force in Huaxi Town searching for Weiyuan, and it is not difficult for Xing Lun to find out the news. Song Jin did not hide many things from Xing Lun. After thinking for a while, she handed the letter to Xing Lun. Xing Lun took it and took a look at it, then asked in shock: "First Prince?" "He is the master of Empress Liu Jiamu of Jianning." Xing Lun immediately understood what Song Jin said, and at the same time he also knew that this was the force behind the plot against the Song family. Song Jin added: "This matter must be kept secret." Then she told Xing Lun about things in Jianning and Fuzhou, and asked him to be careful next time he went there. In fact, this suicide note indirectly illustrates one thing: the late prince who was rumored to have been dead for many years is probably not dead. It is unknown how the other party escaped death. Xing Lun watched Song Jin fold the letter, stuff it into the envelope and put it away, "How did my boss find this letter?" "Pure luck." Song Jin was not polite. When she went out, she just wanted to go to the bamboo forest to see if she could find any clues. She didn''t expect to find what Wei Yuan had hidden. Who knew that she would find it by such a coincidence? The code Wei Yuan chose to leave behind was very concealed. Its really hard for the average person to spot. After hearing this, Xing Lun felt that he was mostly lucky. Huaxi Town has been quite unstable in recent days, with secret ups and downs. Among them is Song Jin''s handiwork. Qin Qi went to Shun''an Trading Company. Xing Lun and others joined forces with Shun''an, and Song Jin planned behind the scenes, asking people to pretend to be Wei Yuan and lure away those who were searching Wei Yuan. Lead him to a secluded place and ambush him. Dont miss any of them! Song Jin didn''t even think about capturing them alive for interrogation, because these people acted fiercely, very similar to those who killed people who inquired about the Song family''s affairs behind the scenes. Killed like this two or three times. The searchers were alert and calmed down. Perhaps they did not expect that someone would dare to kill their people and act more ruthlessly than them! Three days later, Wei Yuan contacted the local stronghold. The news quickly spread to Song Jin. Go pick them up immediately. Wei Yuan was indeed injured and hid in a village with a dilapidated house. He would hide in the mountains during the day and rest in the dilapidated house at night. After two or three days, no one was found searching. Only then did he dare to go out quietly and spend money to invite a half-year-old child in the village to send a token to the stronghold. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Therefore, we contacted Song Jin and others. After he was brought back, he was asked to be treated by a doctor. Wei Yuan was surprised to learn that Song Jin had found the letter. He was in critical condition at the time. "I didn''t expect that my boss would find it so quickly. I wanted to hide from others and chose to escape from the lake. I couldn''t take the letter with me so I hid it." "You should recover from your injuries first." Song Jin asked people to take good medicine without worrying about money and money. Place people in place. Xing Lun was left to finish the work and quickly disappeared, including the people from Shun''an. Song Jin chose to return to Yi County. After disrupting Huaxi County for several days, she walked away gracefully. The group of people who were originally investigating who was against her, searched and searched for a lonely person. Song Jin returned to Qinjiagou in the dust. This trip will take seven or eight days. Before going home, Song Jin changed back into women''s clothes and went to the shop to buy some snacks. As soon as he got off the carriage, Song Jin heard someone acting strangely. "You''re already married, and you''re still away from home all day long?" Mrs. Liu looked at Song Jin critically with an old face, "Don''t forget that you are a womanizer, and my eldest husband can''t have a seductress. An unruly wife." Song Jin didn''t expect to bump into old Liu first when he came back. Qin Qi stood up and frowned and said: "Old lady, my master is an upright person and is a respectful person of the fourth rank. Please be careful in your words and deeds. Otherwise, I am afraid that if this comes to the Yamen, you will be charged with disrespect." "Which sentence did I say wrong?" Old Mr. Liu asked with a sharp look and a deep look on his face. In fact, she didn''t know for sure. It was said that she was jealous of Song Jin. The fate she had been looking forward to for most of her life had not yet come, and Song Jin already had a granddaughter-in-law. I heard that the grade of imperial edict is not low. No worse than Qin Chis officials! Song Jin ignored Old Liu, and instead looked directly at Old Qin, "Grandpa, don''t you care? My husband-in-law has a good reputation. I don''t want it to be revealed anytime that he has an unruly wife or that he doesn''t distinguish between his grandparents and his wife." It was all slapped on his head." Old Man Qin''s expression changed, and he immediately glared at Old Liu, raised his fist and shouted: "Damn old woman, I''m warning you! If you dare to ruin Dalang''s reputation, I won''t beat you to death!" Old Mrs. Liu shrank his neck. Song Jin didn''t want to watch the lawsuit between them. She found that almost all the people from the Lao Qin family were here today. Chapter 346 Farce in the old house Chapter 346 Farce in the old house Song Jin wanted to ask what happened today? Mrs. Li spoke first: "You must be tired, you wife. Let''s go back to the room to rest first." "Okay, mother." Song Jin said hello to the others, and they went inside first. Li''s attitude was obviously that he didn''t want Song Jin to get involved. Nothing good would happen if two old guys came over. Song Jin left everyone''s sight. As soon as she turned to the backyard patio, a small figure ran into her arms. "Mother!" The immature little girl''s voice was soft and waxy, with a little uneasiness. Soon, she hugged Song Jin''s thigh tightly and pursed her mouth to cry, "Is mother going to sneak away again?" Song Jin bent down and picked up Niuniu, and even weighed her intentionally, "What are you thinking about, Niuniu? Even if mother wants to leave, she will tell you and promise not to do it secretly." "Wow" Niuniu suddenly burst into tears. This made Song Jin heartbroken, "Niuniu, be good, tell mother, why are you crying?" "Niuniu doesn''t want mother to leave." Niu Niu hugged Song Jin''s neck and held on, tears streaming down her face, which was very painful. Xiaoyu on the side reminded: "My boss, the lady came back from Huangshan the day before yesterday. She cried without seeing you and has been feeling depressed." Song Jin also woke up at this time. The child did not see her when she returned home, thinking that she had gone to the capital again, and felt uneasy. So, she patted Niu Niu''s back gently soothingly. Song Jin said: "Niuniu is reluctant to let go of her mother?" Niu Niu nodded her little head repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice. Song Jin was so heartbroken that she hugged the little guy and went back to the bedroom together. Before going back, she went to see her youngest son. The younger son is currently sleeping. Yinlong was also very happy to see Song Jin back. The two chatted for a while, then carried Niu Niu back to the room, playing and resting on the bed with her until the child was tired and fell asleep, and Song Jin covered her with a quilt. Song Jin raised his eyes and looked at Xiaoyu who was guarding beside him. "Xiaoyu, what are you doing here at the old house?" "When I returned to my boss'' house, I seemed to be talking about taking concubines." Xiaoyu was accompanying Niuniu in the back house and was not very clear about what happened in the front yard. Song Jin understood. I heard Qin Chi say earlier that Mrs. Liu proposed to adopt her youngest son, but Qin Mingsong refused, saying that he was not infertile. Then Mrs. Liu offered to let him take a concubine. Song Jin was puzzled again, "I''ll accept the concubine in the fourth house, do you still need to discuss it with us?" Xiaoyu looked confused. She didn''t know these things. Song Jin didn''t ask any more questions. He asked her to step back first, and then asked Yinlong. After hearing this, Yinlong''s smile subsided and said: "Old Mrs. Liu must be a monster. She dislikes Miss Song Er and can''t have children. One moment she said she would divorce Miss Song Er, and the next moment she said she would demote her to a concubine. Someone reminded her, and again Afraid of damaging her fourth son''s reputation, Miss Song ran away in anger before you came back." "It''s a matter of imagination." Song Jin knew that Mr. Liu couldn''t make trouble because he was irritating others. Fortunately, the most annoying people now were probably Song Xiu and Qin Mingsong. Song Xiu is not that easy to talk to. Song Jin didn''t believe that she would sit still and wait for death. Song Jin resolutely refused to get involved in the affairs of the old house. She treated it as a normal routine and spent time with her children whenever she had time. Regarding the matter in Huaxi Town, Song Jin had not decided whether to write a letter to the capital. It is not easy to write down matters involving the late prince in a letter. It would be unthinkable if something unexpected happened in the middle of the letter. Besides, it''s not an urgent matter. It''s just that Song Jin''s trip to Huaxi Town will probably be spread to Qin Chi through Shun''an. Three days passed peacefully. Xiao Liu came to gossip with Song Jin mysteriously, "Daughter-in-law, have you heard?" "What''s going on?" Song Jin pretended to be confused. Just when Xiao Liu was about to open her mouth to speak, she suddenly saw Niu Niu lying next to Song Jin''s legs, who was very clingy. She stretched out her hand and pinched Niu Niu''s white and tender cheeks, and encouraged: "Niu Niu, go play outside." "Second aunt, Niuniu needs to stay with mother." The little guy is not fooled. Song Jin knew that Mr. Liu had gossip to talk about, but it was not easy to do it in front of the child, so he immediately lowered his head and said to Niu Niu: "Niu Niu hasn''t gone to grandma to pay her respects today. I wonder if grandma misses Niu Niu." "I''ll think about it." Under the deception of Song Jin and Xiao Liu. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Niuniu decided to go find her grandmother. With Xiaoyu following him, Song Jin had nothing to worry about. When the older one and the younger one went out, there were only two people and an infant left in the room. Xiao Liu finally whispered with bright eyes: "The fourth brother and sister went to the town yesterday and bought a woman back. She said she was here to serve the old man. What do you know?" "The old man accepted it?" Song Jin raised his eyebrows. Mr. Liu nodded like he was pounding garlic, "Take it, take it!" Next, Xiao Liu told the whole story. When Song Xiu learned that Mrs. Liu wanted to divorce her and let Qin Mingsong marry another woman, she was so angry that she almost went crazy. After quarreling with Mr. Liu, she finally lost because of her status as a junior. So, Song Xiu went to town yesterday. When I came back there was another woman. The woman''s name is Man Niang, she is about thirty years old, has fair skin, is quite pretty, and her words and deeds hide a bit of coquettishness. Song Xiu said that Manniang was a foreigner who was widowed at a young age and was sold by her unscrupulous husband''s family. She came here and was picked by Song Xiu at a glance. Of course, when it was given to Old Man Qin, it was not in the name of a bed warmer, but to take care of his daily life. Who knew that Old Man Qin was so impatient? They took people out last night! It has to be said that Old Qin probably couldn''t stand Old Liu, so he had already cleaned up another room and slept in a separate bed with Old Liu. So early this morning, Mrs. Liu got up and saw Old Man Qin and Man Niang sleeping together. What a horrendous situation it would be. "The third brother and sister said that the fourth brother and sister woke up early on purpose to watch the mother-in-law''s jokes." Xiao Liu said with a gloating smile. None of the daughters-in-law of his sons was truly filial to the old Mrs. Liu. Song Jin even discovered that Mrs. Lin occasionally showed hatred towards the old Mrs. Liu. But Song Jin never mentioned this discovery to anyone. Song Jin smiled and said, "Now grandma probably won''t have time to worry about anything else." A fire in his own backyard was enough to make Mr. Liu heartbroken. According to the laws of Daxia, ordinary people are not allowed to take concubines casually. They must be over forty and childless. Old Man Qin will not openly challenge the laws and will not give Man Niang the title. The name he gave to the outside world was that of a servant who took care of his daily life. Old Liu really can''t do anything to Old Man Qin. This hidden loss can only be eaten. Song Jin admired Song Xiu''s move. In certain matters, Song Xiu, who was not very bright at first, seemed to always have a flash of inspiration, make various amazing moves, and successfully deal a fatal blow to his opponent. Chapter 347 The northwest is not peaceful Chapter 347: Unrest in the Northwest Mrs. Liu poured herself a bowl of tea and said while drinking: "My mother-in-law is still lying on the bed and wants to ask me and my third brother and sister to serve her. I don''t know where she learned it. She actually said that she must set up rules in the future. , put up the record of the old prince, and asked us to go to pay her respects every day. " Mrs. Liu never treated her daughter-in-law well before. Now the Qin family is even more serious about it. It''s just that the old Liu family''s prestige has been wiped out a long time ago, and no one really takes her mentioning it seriously. Song Jin had a good temper and listened to Xiao Liu''s complaints. Until her son woke up, she was busy coaxing him, "Second Aunt, who will take care of the business of your shop?" "Your second uncle and third uncle." Mr. Liu started nagging again, "Earlier, your third aunt''s pregnancy was not going well, and the doctor said she shouldn''t work too hard, so your third uncle asked her to go home and rest, so she can do some light work at home and take good care of Erya. I also have a lot of things to do at home and I cant keep up with the work, so I just hired someone. Even though I make less money, its really much easier. "That''s good. Erlang and Sanlang are also older." Song Jin asked Xiao Liu whether he fell in love with her. Xiao Liu became excited again and chatted about the companies she was considering for Erlang, "I am interested in the ones Erlang is not happy with. I don''t know what kind of girl he wants to marry." "Don''t be in a hurry. If you keep searching slowly, there will always be someone who suits his liking." Song Jin knew that Erlang and Sanlang were outside now and had more experience. Compared with the young men in the village, their horizons were a little higher. Sit for a while longer. Niuniu came over again. One moment she said she wanted to play with her brother, and the next she asked Song Jin to play with her. Xiao Liu, who had been gossiping for so long today, stood up and left with satisfaction. Song Jin lived very well here in Huizhou. It was already autumn, and his youngest son was still young and not suitable for long journeys. Song Jin decided to wait until the weather warms up next year before setting off. Since we have this plan, we have to wait until next spring at least. With her children by her side, Song Jin felt that time passed very quickly. Every month, I received a letter from Qin Chi without hesitation, and he wrote it very implicitly at first, as if he was lamenting that the weather was getting colder, and he just discovered winter clothes? Still from last year. When winter came, he mentioned that the smell of the sachet on his body had faded, and later he directly said that it was too deserted to write about his home. Song Jin often hinted at going to Beijing. Song Jin was not disturbed by him. It was not that Qin Chi had nothing to do. On the contrary, he went to work in Dali Temple. As the saying goes, the three things to do when a new official takes office, he did not set the fire on fire, but he had a lot of things to do. The cause was the collapse of the Liu, Yang, and Yuan families this year, and their interests were quickly divided among the forces in the capital. It seemed that some gap had opened up, and every now and then, officials would confiscate their homes and send them into exile. Qin Chi was so busy that he had no time to spare. However, he still did not forget to write letters home. "How is your family?" Qin Chi received a letter from Huizhou. Shopkeeper Tao happened to be the one who came to deliver the letter, "I heard that my wife had been away for a few days. We didn''t know it at first. It was Qin Qi who contacted the trading firm in Honggu County..." Therefore, the news about Song Jin leaving home and taking people to Huaxi Town in Honggu County reached Qin Chi''s ears. The shopkeeper of Shun''an Trading Company over there was very measured and did not check what Song Jin was doing. He just cooperated with Song Jin. Therefore, Qin Chi knew what Song Jin was doing, but did not know the inside story. Shopkeeper Tao asked: "Sir, do you want to go to Mrs. Xin?" "No, if there is something really important, Madam will take the initiative to mention it." Qin Chi knew Song Jin''s character and did not ask anyone to inform him immediately, which meant that the matter was not important. It''s really a matter of life and death. Song Jin would inform him without Qin Chi opening his mouth. Then Shopkeeper Tao added: "There is news from the northwest that Oala over there is showing signs of sending troops, and the Tatars are not too restless either." In the early days of the Great Xia Dynasty, Wala gradually emerged and became the biggest threat to the dynasty. Grand Master Wala also invaded the border of Daxia many times, and Daxia was not without its defeats. After the rise of Oara, the Tatars gradually declined. However, since the Tatars changed to a khan more than ten years ago, the Tatars have become stronger again and have repeatedly invaded the borders of the Great Xia Dynasty. The year before last, the northwest was not peaceful. Both sides are currently testing the situation and have only had a few small-scale confrontations. When fighting on the front line, Qin Chi was beyond his reach, but he was never there to fight, but to stabilize the rear and provide food, grass, weapons, etc. As long as there was constant food and grass and no one was stirring up trouble in the court, Qin Chi believed that nothing would happen if his grandfather was in charge in the northwest. Only the rear is not stable. Qin Chi thought of the former prince again. This man was very good at hiding. His people had been paying attention for so long, but they still couldn''t find the whereabouts of the late prince and Yan Jiangnan. "Where do you think they are hiding?" Qin Chi pondered this matter. Shopkeeper Tao said: "As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is also the safest place. Could they be hiding in the palace?" "Is there a tunnel in the palace?" Qin Chi was surprised. Shopkeeper Tao said: "It''s best to ask Commander Hong about this matter." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The Commander Hong he spoke of was Old Man Hong. Qin Chi decisively recruited Old Man Hong. As for the secret passage in the palace, Old Man Hong definitely said that there was a secret passage in the palace. However, after the palace incident occurred after the death of the late emperor, he later heard that the secret passage had been sealed. "I don''t know the specific location. I need to check it out." Old Man Hong thought that there were some old guys who were still alive back then, so he might as well find one and ask. The three of them thought about the secret passage, and they also knew that the secret passage under the West City extended in all directions. The people arranged by Qin Chi have already explored all the secret passages. The reason why I didnt say they were completely clear is because after Qin Chi had earlier sent people to sneak in and kill them randomly, the former Crown Prince and Mr. Yan couldnt figure out the details of Qin Chi and others, so they reluctantly evacuated them. Naturally, before they evacuated, Some exits or secret passages were sealed in time. It seems that the people on the bright side have also withdrawn. For example, the family that ran a stall in Fengning Hutong disappeared. According to neighbors, there was something going on in their hometown and the family returned to their hometown. That night, in a village in the suburbs. A man wearing a ghost mask and black-patterned brocade clothing was whipping two prisoners tied to wooden stakes with a long whip. The two were beaten to a **** pulp, with their heads drooped and only breathing. "Crack!" Another whip. Then there were several more whips until the person on the stake was exhausted. "Bad luck! Drag the body down and throw it to the back mountain." The masked man threw the whip at the subordinate next to him, turned around and strode to the tea table where Mr. Yan was sitting not far away. Mr. Yan poured the tea with his own hands. Then he pushed the tea bowl towards the masked man. "Lord, have you lost your temper?" Mr. Yan said helplessly. During this period of time, they had been losing continuously. No wonder the other party was irritable, not to mention that he had a bad temper to begin with. Killing a few people would only make him feel better. The masked man picked up the tea cup and drank it in one gulp, "A bunch of trash! Why didn''t I know they were so useless before? But when I chased them to Hongshi County, I fell into their trap and lost more than a dozen people in a row. I didn''t know it was... Who did it?" "It''s a bit rubbish." Mr. Yan cannot speak for the person who did this. Chapter 348 Theres a war Chapter 348 Theres a war "What about the Tatar side?" The masked man suddenly asked. Mr. Yan replied: "The news has been spread, and troops will be sent to the border soon. It will not be a problem to hold back the Northwest Army." "Let Jianning be ready too." After waiting for most of his life, the masked man didn''t want to wait any longer. The overall situation of the world is like a tight bowstring, the undercurrent is turbulent, and the storm is coming. Within the capital, the courtiers had their own agendas, party struggles were fierce, and power schemes were intertwined. The war on the border resumes. The Tatar intrusion in northern Xinjiang continues, and it is said that there is a big movement this time, with a large number of cavalry gathering at the border. When the news reached Song Jin, it was approaching the end of the year. After Song Jin read the letter, he asked in surprise: "Is there going to be a war?" "right!" Xing Lun returned to Huizhou to celebrate the New Year this year. I came to Qinjiagou to give New Year''s gifts and discuss some things with Song Jin, as well as plans for the coming year. Song Jin''s surprise didn''t seem like he was faking it. Many things in this life are different from those in the previous life, including national affairs. Prince Rui, who guarded the northwest in his previous life, was already sad when he learned that his only son and grandson died tragically. Not long after, he received the news that his daughter had died of illness, and he followed suit. After that, the Northwest War started. From time to time, news of wars reached Huizhou. Huizhou is too far from the northwest, and everything I know about it in my previous life is just hearsay. Nothing happened to Qin Chi and Li in this life, and Crown Prince Helian Pu, who was rumored to be dying at any time, did not die, which affected Prince Rui. The surviving Prince Rui affected the situation in the northwest again, delaying the war for two or three years. Xing Lun saw that Song Jin was a little distracted, so he asked again: "Does the boss want to adjust next year''s plan?" "The medicinal materials will be supplied to Shun''an first, and Shun''an will give him as much as he wants." Song Jin thought of his private granary again, "The last disaster in Taihu Lake caused two empty granaries. They haven''t been filled yet, right? Think of a way to fill them up. " "I know. Due to the news of the war in the northwest, the price of food has increased by 10% or 20%. Fortunately, the weather in the south is going well this year. As long as you are willing to spare some silver, you don''t have to worry about not being able to buy it." Few businessmen are fools. Song Jin knew how to stock up on food, and others could think of it too. No, grain prices started to fluctuate as soon as the news came out. "It doesn''t matter if it''s expensive, just buy it secretly." Song Jin asked Xing Lun to spread out his purchases and not just buy grain in one place, otherwise the government might know about the hoarding of grain and cause trouble. Xing Lun sat for a while. Before leaving, he asked again: "When will my boss come to Beijing? Maybe we can go together. It just so happens that I haven''t stopped by to visit the Zhang family yet, so it''s time to go. And for this year''s New Year''s Day, I will use Huizhou Jifang I sent a copy in my name. Song Jin asked him to drop by for a house visit and did not set a time limit. I sent him there as a gift, just to make him familiar with me. The focus is on Huizhou Prefecture. If the Zhang family had that intention, they would probably think of the Song family in Huizhou, especially in the year when the injustice of the Song family spread throughout the capital, people from Huizhou suddenly came to give gifts. Song Jin heard this and said, "You did it properly." She had only two lifetime memories of her maternal grandfather''s family, so she had a very weak impression of them. Later, Song Jin talked about going to Beijing next year. Xing Lun returned to the pharmacy after learning about it. The person who greeted him was Lou Ruhan. A carriage was waiting not far away. "Brother Lun, the time agreed with Boss Zhu is coming soon." Lou Ruhan reminded. Xing Lun thought for a moment, "Let''s go!" Compared with Song Jin, the hands-off shopkeeper, Xing Lun has many more things to be responsible for. He is busy all day long and has not been able to take a break even when the new year is approaching. This is an appointment with a Huizhou businessman. Xing Lun got in the car and suddenly paused, "You inform Xiaoliuzi tonight and arrange for your people to buy grain secretly, buy them separately, buy them in different counties, and then send them to the granary of Zhuangzi in the suburbs." "Don''t buy it from the grain merchant?" When Lou Ruhan mentioned the granary, he knew it was very large. Xing Lun said: "The boss said that we should try our best to hide it. If the quantity is large, it will be easily detected." "Yes, I will tell Xiao Liu." Lou Ruhan responded respectfully. Xing Lun nodded and entered the car. The carriage started moving and headed towards the town. Lou Ruhan led people to protect Xing Lun. When he was about to arrive at the appointed restaurant, a whistle suddenly sounded, followed by another rapid whistle, one long and one short, repeated three times. Xing Lun, Lou Ruhan and others'' expressions suddenly changed. Lou Ruhan said in shock: "Stop the car and turn around." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The driver was also Xing Lun. He responded quickly to the order. When he was about to stop, he heard Xing Lun say again: "You don''t have to stop, just change lanes. Don''t panic, so as not to attract other people''s attention." Lou Ruhan was shocked to realize that he was overreacting. So the carriage that was supposed to stop crossed the street as if nothing had happened, passed the promised restaurant, and then changed its route. At the same time, Lou Ruhan''s people also went to find out more. Sitting in the carriage, he turned around and whispered to the carriage: "Brother Lun, someone is investigating you and the **** agency, probably because of the incident in Huaxi Town. They ambushed someone in the restaurant and wanted to catch Brother Lun. " "Don''t panic, just carry on as usual." Xing Lun didn''t believe that the other party could get the evidence. At best, he is doubtful. Xing Lun thought of Boss Zhu, "Is the person named Zhu a bait they deliberately released?" "I''m not sure. I sent someone to investigate." Lou Ruhan gritted his teeth viciously. If you dare to plot against them, this matter must not go through. Xing Lun thought that this person named Zhu came to the door after being introduced by an acquaintance. He said that Zhu had a batch of Qimen''s top-quality tea at a very fair price. The purpose of meeting today is to discuss this matter. Returned to the courtyard where he lived in the town. Xing Lun sent someone to the restaurant to test it out, "Have someone tell Boss Zhu that I have something to do and won''t be able to get out for a while. If we want to talk, we can make an appointment after the New Year''s Eve." "OK." Lou Ruhan immediately sent a younger brother to handle the matter. He was dressed like a servant, and he went to the restaurant openly and openly. When he arrived at the box agreed with Boss Zhu, everyone lurking in the restaurant looked at him. He knocked on the door and entered. After a while, people came out again. Then he swaggered out of the restaurant. After that, someone secretly followed him. Watching the people in the restaurant secretly, it didn''t take long to see the fat boss Zhu coming out of the box. After he left, the ambushers also withdrew. A waiter in the shop passed the news to people outside, and soon it arrived at Xing Lun''s place. "The person named Zhu is really not innocent." Xing Lun''s eyes were cold and he remembered this matter in his heart. In Huizhou, there are not many people who dare to offend Xing Lun in recent years. Moreover, the Hui Gang has always been united, but I dont know what happened. He sat at the desk and grinded slowly. If this matter is not handled properly, it will be a big trouble. After all, if the other party finds out about him, they may find out about Song Jin. The origins of the Xing and Zhou families are not a secret, and they have close ties with Song and Jin. Then Xing Lun wrote a letter quickly. "Have someone send a letter to my boss." Xing Lun quickly wrote a letter and handed it to Lou Ruhan. Lou Ruhan took the letter and delivered it himself. Chapter 349 investigation Chapter 349 Investigation Song Jin saw the letter handed over by Xing Lun, and the content on it surprised her but not too much. She never underestimated those behind the scenes. According to Xing Lun, it means to remain unchanged in response to all changes. But if the other party continues to investigate like this, they will probably find Qin Chi. A woman is often ignored and despised by those in power. In the eyes of outsiders, Qin Chi is more suspicious than Song Jin. Judging from the letter, Xing Lun also seemed to intend to let Qin Chi stand in front of Song Jin. In Xing Lun''s heart, the only master was Song Jin, and as Song Jin''s husband, it was natural for Qin Chi to block her troubles. Of course, what should be hidden should be hidden. Xing Lun analyzed this with Song Jin in his letter. Song Jin''s identity can no longer be hidden. The only worry is whether it will affect the missing Song family. other side. The investigation on Song Jin and Song Xiu was handed over to the person in charge who secretly came to Huizhou to investigate. "The eldest daughter of the Song family in Fucheng?" The man flipped through the information to check. A spy reported: "The Song family was hastily married on the day of the accident. The marriage certificate registered by the Yamen was deliberately hidden. We spent some time to find out that the marriage was registered before the Song family disappeared." The official document of the Song family''s innocence has been sent from the capital to the government office in Huizhou. It caused quite a stir at the time. The confiscated ancestral house and fields have been recovered and sealed. As long as the Song family goes to the Yamen, they can return part of the family property. However, several months have passed and no one has claimed it. The most important thing is that all the Song family except their married daughters have disappeared. The masked person in charge asked again: "She was the one who killed us in Huaxi Town? According to the news, she was just out of confinement at that time." After speaking, he threw the investigation information on the man''s head, "Stop fooling me with these." The spy who was asked was dumbfounded, and after a long while he said bluntly: "She is the most suspicious. Xing Lun was clearly on the merchant ship at the time, and he suddenly disembarked and went to Honggu Town. This is very suspicious. There is also news that he is from the Yixian Escort Bureau. , protect A young man was sent to Honggu County. There were more than twenty escorts at that time. According to our investigation, Lou Ruhan was Xing Lun''s subordinate. He had a sister working as a maid at Song Jin''s place. These things are out there. No matter how you say it, the relationship is not shallow. They had heard about Xing Lun, who had risen rapidly. There was a master behind him named Song Huaijin. Song Huaijin''s whereabouts are hidden and he is one of the top drug dealers in Daxia today. The spy added: "Based on the investigation, the people who intercepted and killed us are most likely the Song family. At that time, the house was ransacked and not all the people were ransacked." "Before the superiors targeted the Song family, they had investigated the Song family thoroughly. The Huizhou Song family''s wealth was not rich because they had been supporting the side branches. This Song Huaijin was most likely from the side branch of the Song family, and he took over the remaining connections of the direct branch. , thats why it develops so fast. During the investigation, almost all of the drug farmers of the Song family in Huizhou asked Jifang to take over. This relationship must have something to do with the eldest lady of the Song family. Compared with the suspicion of the spies, the person in charge of the investigation was more suspicious of Qin Chi. This person is the most suspicious. It took a peasant boy such a short time to reach the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple. It is abnormal just to think about it. Anyone who assassinates him will surely fall into disgrace. The man immediately ordered, "Focus on investigating Qin Chi." "We investigated him earlier and there are files on him here." "Give it up and start investigating again! The person who investigated before was just perfunctory and didn''t even find out the identity of his wife. This shows that that person deserves to die." The Song family''s case was not exposed at that time. If this matter had been discovered long ago, their people could have made up for it behind the scenes, settled the Song family''s case, and it was not impossible to forge some evidence. Qin Chi married the daughter of a criminal. It would not be so easy for him to get ahead, and it would even be difficult for him to become an official in the court. On the one hand, it can only be said that Qin Chi is lucky. On the other hand, it is also the responsibility of the person responsible for the investigation. The spy shuddered at his superior''s inquiry, "My subordinates will never neglect this matter and will investigate it thoroughly." "You''d better do whatever you want, otherwise the person who was investigated last time will be an example." This sentence ended the life of the person who investigated earlier. If the person responsible is held accountable, the investigator will be punished. The punishment was severe and few survived. There are more and more spies in Yixian County, and many of them fall under the surveillance of Song Jin and Xing Lun immediately. Most of the time, the information they want to investigate is deliberately investigated by Song Jin and Xing Lun. Check this over and over again. Jifang was originally a shop funded by Song Jin to the Zhou and Xing families, and Song Jin, the owner, only had a small share. The success of Jifang was the result of the efforts of the Zhou and Xing families. This matter can be investigated a few years before the Song family''s accident. Rule-based development. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! It is said that the rise of Jifang happened in recent years, but in fact it has been more than ten years. He is a serious businessman. Ji Fang never paid less taxes. Judging from the trajectory, there is not much relationship with Qin Chi. Even except for the relationship with Song Jin, Qin Chi and Xing Lun have almost no contact. Those people went to investigate Qin Chi again. The results of the investigation from childhood to adulthood were put in front of the human case being investigated. Its okay if you dont look at it, but once you look at it, youll be even more fascinated. A sick young man who has been confirmed by many doctors in Huizhou is very difficult to raise, not to mention alive to this day. However, Qin Chi is now more than 20 years old, and he is still jumping around in Dali Temple. "Is it possible that the Qin Chi in the capital is not the real Qin Chi?" This cannot help but confuse others. The spy shook his head, "He came back to visit relatives, and many people have seen him. There is news that Dr. Zhuo took his pulse and said that he was indeed born with a weak disease, but he was lucky. He met a famous doctor since he was a child to regulate his body. According to the investigation, it is an old doctor named Jing. Doctor Jing cannot hide. Song Jin did not cover up the matter and allowed the other party to investigate. In the end, the suspicion was cleared. The people who really took action in Huaxi Town were the people led by Qin Qi, who were all veterans of killing people and burying corpses. Lou Ruhan and others were just following behind to do odd jobs and run errands. The spy handed over the information about the investigation. It wasn''t long before it was delivered to Mr. Yan. Mr. Yan threw the news aside and said, "Continue the investigation! With some ragtag men in the **** agency, they can''t kill more than a dozen secret guards, and they can''t do it so cleanly." Lou Ruhan and others know some boxing and kicking skills, but they are all wild people. The master who taught them martial arts is not a very powerful person. They can fool the bandits by running darts, but they can''t do it with real swords, real guns and secret guards who have been trained since childhood. . This is the flaw! One can''t help but wonder, someone is deliberately trying to make Xing Lun a scapegoat behind the scenes? "Qin Chi is suspicious." Mr. Yan set his sights on the investigation of Qin Chi, "Lu Songxian cannot teach a disciple like Qin Qi''an. Rather than being from a peasant family, he is more like an heir specially taught by a big family. Even if he tried his best to hide." Lu Songxian was the mountain chief of Tachuan Academy and Qin Chi''s nominal husband. People''s upbringing is cultivated from childhood and engraved in their bones. After a long time, ordinary people may not be able to discover it, but some people with rich experience will find the clues. Chapter 350 Cooking tea by the fire Chapter 350 Cooking Tea by the Fire So Qin Chi in the capital found that more people were monitoring him. He was vigilant for a while first, and then asked people to investigate the reason. Only when he received a letter from Huizhou did he understand. Qin Chi accepted this well. At the same time, there is a feeling that it has finally come. I knew long ago that this day would come sooner or later. Qin Chi was originally unable to figure out the intelligence network deployed by the other party in the capital, but the spies who came to his door were able to counter-monitor and find out the other party''s stronghold in the capital. The days passed quietly. Now it happens to be the Chinese New Year, the weather is cold and the ground is freezing, and the government office is on holiday. However, there are many favors and social interactions. Either someone handed me a greeting card, or it was an invitation from a colleague who refused to go due to bad feelings, such as the invitation from Yan Xianqing and the Minister of Dali Temple. Ning Guogong also sent an invitation. Almost all of them he couldn''t refuse. Qin Chi went to Yan Xianqing''s birthday party. Because it was the New Year, Yan Xianqing never held grand events, and only invited a few familiar friends to make tea and discuss Taoism. Yan Xianqing lives in Guihua Hutong, and the house is only slightly better than the one Qin Chi lives in now. Qin Chi came here half an hour early as a junior. As soon as he heard Qin Chi coming, Yan Xianqing personally welcomed him into the house. Qin Chi is wearing a light blue robe with a jade belt tied around his waist. His posture is as tall as a pine tree and his gait is calm. He was holding a small rectangular box with exquisite carvings in his hand. When he saw Yan Xianqing coming with brisk steps, his eyes under his sharp eyebrows were smiling like the warm sun in winter, which made people feel warm. Anyone who sees him will think he has a good temper. Yan Xianqing felt the same way earlier. However, in the past few months, Qin Chi has been handling cases in Dali Temple, one incident after another, and his selfless and ruthless behavior has caused many people with ulterior motives to avoid him like a snake or a scorpion. A preliminary demonstration of his edge! "Master Yan." When Yan Xianqing came forward, Qin Chi handed over the box with a smile, and said with respect in his eyes, "May you be as green as a pine tree, as green as a bamboo, and may you live a long and prosperous life." "Haha, I appreciate your good words." Yan Xianqing accepted the gift without any surprise. This made Qin Chi feel a little more relaxed. Yan Xianqing made an invitation gesture, "Pray for peace, please come inside. Today I invited a few like-minded friends to gather together to make tea and talk about Taoism. It''s to celebrate my birthday. You are the first one to come." Qin Chi smiled and asked, "Will that disturb Mr. Yan?" "What you said is a heretic." Yan Xianqing said unhappily, "Whoever disturbs me won''t be you. Let''s go to the teahouse with me to have a rest. It''s very cold outside." We arrived at a teahouse decorated with rich incense and elegant decoration. There are ground dragons here and its a lot warmer. Qin Chi brushed off the chill from his body and sat down in front of a coffee table. Suddenly, a delicate maid served tea. Yan Xianqing entertained Qin Chi for tea, and then began to open the box to see what Qin Chi had given him. In a formal occasion, Yan Xianqing would not open the box in front of the guests. However, he claimed to be familiar with Qin Chi, so opening the box at this time made it seem more intimate. "Is it Huimo?!" Yan Xianqing cried out in surprise. He smelled it again and found that it was pine smoke and ink. "Qi''an, is this really a gift for me?" Qin Chi smiled and nodded. Yan Xianqing raised his hand and smiled at him, "They say one tael of gold and one tael of ink. To buy this, I must have spent a lot of monthly salary." "No money was spent. I made this ink in my free time in Huizhou. If it hadn''t been Master Yan''s birthday, I wouldn''t have been able to take it out." Qin Chi said with a look of pain on his face. Yan Xianqing''s hand on the box tightened, and he quickly closed the box and hid it. His posture was as if he was afraid that Qin Chi would regret it temporarily, "I didn''t expect Qi''an to have such ability, I admire him." "You don''t know, Huizhou has very little farmland, and most of the local people know one or two crafts to survive. My grandfather was good at making ink, so I followed him and learned a little bit. At that time, I had not yet passed the examination. , I thought that if I couldnt study in the future, I would learn a craft first so that I wouldnt have to worry about starving to death. Qin Chi made no secret of this matter. His demeanor is calm and his eyes are clear. Yan Xianqing believed it immediately. Yan Xianqing''s brows revealed the elegance of a scholar. He stretched out his hand and held Qin Chi''s wrist warmly, saying that if he wanted to buy Hui ink in the future, he would ask him to do so. The two chatted happily. More people came to the door one after another. Among them, Qin Chi knew two people, one was the Secretary of the Imperial Academy and the other was Xia Wei, the Minister of Household Affairs. The other two are Mr. Shanzhang He from Jingcheng Academy. Qin Chi had known Si Ye before, and had only had brief contact with Xia Wei during the Taihu disaster relief work. The fragrance of tea overflowed, and laughter and laughter could be heard from time to time during the conversation. Its unknown how sincere it is inside, but at least on the surface its a matter of fun for the host and the guest. Until we talked about the northwest war situation, the atmosphere was a little dull. "Is Xia Shangshu worried about military resources again?" Si Ye on the side lamented that what he was drinking was obviously tea, but he seemed to be drinking it as wine, "The most terrifying thing is the Tatars, who covet the richness of the Central Plains and often use weapons. This time they dare to attack the border with a large army, which is really rare. , might he have other plans..." "I am a civil servant and I am not good at fighting." Xia Wei didn''t want to discuss the matter in depth. The Tatars are proficient in horsemanship and bow and arrow. They haunt the grasslands and deserts, and their whereabouts are elusive. Although the imperial court established important border towns to defend against foreign enemies. It''s just that the Tatars are cunning and changeable, sometimes attacking camps at night, or plundering border people during the day, causing the border to be at war and making the people miserable. When the border troops received the news and arrived, the Tatars fled without a trace. This time it is rare for a large army to invade the territory. Qin Chi was a little skeptical. It is possible that the Tatars had some collusion with the former prince. Last year, several large caravans secretly traded with the Tatars, including a large amount of grain. Qin Chi secretly had half of it stolen. Shopkeeper Tao had people investigate those businesses, and they all had the Liu family behind them. There was an episode in the middle. Two girls who had not yet left the pavilion suddenly came over and generously said that they were bringing food to Yan Xianqing. The girl walking in front was bright and elegant, obviously well-dressed, and her beautiful eyes smiled without saying a word. The woman behind him is graceful and graceful. Following the girl in front, her eyebrows were narrowed and she was shy. Before stepping into the threshold, she raised her left arm gracefully, her long sleeves half-covering her powdered face. She lightly curled her right fingertips and half-lifted her skirt as she stepped into the threshold. Not to mention how beautiful it is. One is bright and the other is soft and graceful. The two women entered the tea room, and the people who were making tea around the stove all looked at them. "Father, mother asked me to bring you food." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Yan Yurong came to Yan Xianqing, her voice as sweet as a silver bell. Yan Xianqing looked at his daughter with an endearing but helpless look, "Okay, okay, your mother is interested. As for the rough work, just let the servants do it. Ronger doesn''t need to come over." "Don''t I miss my father?" Yan Yurong tugged on Yan Xianqing''s sleeves coquettishly, then asked the maid who was following to bring up the food boxes, and then placed them on the table one by one, "Today is my father''s birthday, and my cousin has personally made you a bowl of longevity noodles." "I have a heart, I have a heart." Yan Xianqing looked at Wu Jingyao, who was as quiet as a virgin. When Wu Jingyao saw him, she looked over and bowed, "Jingyao has met my uncle." "You''re welcome, come here, I came here to meet some uncles... uh, and the young and promising Qin Shaoqing." Yan Xianqing made a mistake and spoke very abruptly. It made Xia Wei and others next to him laugh. Just now, Yan Xianqing was quick to talk and classified Qin Chi as an uncle. Later, he discovered that Qin Chi was only in his early twenties. Xia Wei said with emotion: "I remember the last time I saw Miss Yan, she was still a little girl. In the blink of an eye, she has become a big girl and she is so beautiful." "Yes, Brother Xianqing is still good at raising children." The friend on the side smiled and echoed. Yan Xianqing was so happy to be praised, "You can say whatever you say. You are a rough boy. You are a rough boy. He is so pampered by my wife. He is just like a skinny monkey." "Dad! How can anyone say that about your daughter? What should others do if they take it seriously?" Yan Yurong stomped her feet cautiously, with a look of disapproval. However, the two girls still saluted and said hello to the uncle present, and it was Qin Chi''s turn. The two girls were obviously at odds with each other. Yan Yurong glanced at Qin Chi quickly and bowed quickly, "Yu Rong has met Mr. Qin." Qin Chi stood up and returned the greeting: "Miss Yan, you''re welcome." Then it was Wu Jingyao''s turn to step forward and bow Yingying, her voice like an oriole leaving the valley: "Jingyao has met Mr. Qin." The final sound of the last word must be wound by three thirds. It makes people''s hearts itch. Of course, this kind of person does not belong to Qin Chi. Qin Chi has seen more beautiful women and heard more alluring tones. Therefore, his aesthetic appreciation for such things is extraordinary. So, under the joking eyes of Xia Wei and others, Qin Chi was as steady as an old dog, and just returned the favor with calm eyes, polite and distant. This made Xia Wei and others take a high look. Xia Wei and others did not know earlier. What else dont you understand right now? This is because the Yan family and the Wu family have taken a fancy to Qin Chi and intend to let the marriageable woman take the opportunity to show her face in front of Qin Chi. Qin Chi had his eye on the best, so he didn''t lose anything if he didn''t like him. Yan Yurong and Wu Jingyao did not stay, but said hello to everyone. After seeing the courtesy, they excused themselves and left. Sometimes, it''s polite to see things through without telling them. A few people quickly chatted about other topics. "Qi''an, I heard that you are happy to have Lin''er again?" Xia Wei said from the side. Qin Chi smiled and said, "Mr. Xia, this news is behind the times. My child is already a few months old." "Huizhou is far away. Didn''t it just take a long time for the news to reach the capital and reach my ears?" Xia Wei teased. I''ve heard this news a long time ago, is it possible? It would be bad if you were suspected of spying on other people''s whereabouts. When talking about the children at home, Qin Chi was obviously more talkative. Not only the second son was mentioned, but also the interesting story of twins. This was the first time for the people present to hear Qin Chi talk about things at home, and they couldn''t help but be a little fascinated. Perhaps this kind of Qin Chi was more flesh and blood, and it was not difficult to see from his words how much he loved his wife. There is also an emphasis on children. This made everyone present have a favorable impression of him. However, Yan Xianqing felt a little regretful. When Qin Chi mentioned his wife and children at home, he clearly understood the Yan and Wu family''s intentions and refused without any trace. Chapter 351 outrageous rumors Chapter 351 Outrageous Rumors Yan Xianqing saw off the last guest. Wait for him to return to the main room. Not only did he see his wife, he also saw his daughter and Wu Jingyao. Mrs. Yan looked over with expectant eyes, and Yan Xianqing shook her head. No need to say anything, Mrs. Yan understood what he meant, and she could only regretfully send her daughter and niece away. "mother!" Yan Yurong tugged on Mrs. Yan''s sleeve, her cheeks were pink and she said shyly, "Dad is back." Mrs. Yan can understand the meaning in her husband''s eyes, but Yan Yurong may not understand, "Go down and rest quickly. It''s getting dark today. If you''re not tired, your cousin is still tired." Yan Yurong had no choice but to leave with Wu Jingyao. When no one was in the house, only the couple remained. "Is there really no chance?" Mrs. Yan asked unwillingly. Yan Xianqing shook his head, "No chance, don''t mention this matter again in the future. I don''t know how many people in the capital have this idea. Looking at Qin Qi''an''s attitude today, his relationship with his wife is not ordinary. There is no way I would let my daughter be cheated by others. Concubine, you also made the Wu family lose their minds." "Didn''t he say that his wife is ugly? What man doesn''t like to be pretty, especially a successful man." Mrs. Yan just fell in love with Qin Chi. Qin Chi is now in the limelight, and anyone can see that he has a bright future. There are many people who want to get in touch with him or win over him, but Qin Chi seems to be gentle, but in fact it is difficult to get close to him. Yan Xianqing actually agreed with his wife''s words, but said, "This is wrong. There is an exception in everything. Qin Qi''an is one, and I am one." "What do you mean?" Mrs. Yan''s eyebrows stood up and she glared at Yan Xianqing. Are you calling her ugly? Yan Xianqing quickly turned it over and said, "I told you before that this didn''t make sense. It was you who insisted on testing it. You also said that if you don''t think it''s good, you''ll like it yourself. I''ve tried it this time, so I should give up." For the sake of the daughter''s family''s reputation, the temptation is usually very subtle and will not be exposed directly. Yan Xianqing didn''t want to fail to get married, but instead become enemies, and repeatedly warned Mrs. Yan not to do unnecessary things. Mrs. Yan could only give up. Out of Yan Mansion. Qin Chi originally wanted to take his own carriage. Unexpectedly, he saw Xia Wei, who had left before him, sitting in a car not far away. He waved to him, "Come here, let''s take a ride." "That''s disturbing Mr. Xia." Qin Chi did not refuse. There is a charcoal stove in the carriage, which is very warm. Xia Wei rubbed his hands, and the hot breath turned into white mist, "This **** weather will freeze me to death. If it weren''t for Yan Xianqing''s birthday, I wouldn''t be able to go out even if I were given a gold mountain." Qin Chi curled his lips and smiled softly. He wanted to say that if there really was a golden mountain, Master Xia would definitely be able to run faster than anyone else. Xia Wei looked at Qin Chi''s face as he spoke, "Not to mention, looking at you like this, I kind of believe the rumors." "What rumors?" Qin Chi asked. Xia Wei raised his eyebrows, "You haven''t heard of it?" "About me?" "Isn''t this nonsense?" "But there are too many rumors about me. I don''t know which one you are referring to." Qin Chi looked magnanimously. Xia Wei asked again: "Have you often encountered peach blossoms when you go out recently? You should be aware of this. The reason is probably related to that rumor." "Master Xia, can you explain it clearly?" Qin Chi frowned and asked. Xia Wei leaned towards Qin Chi and whispered in Qin Chi''s ear: "Some people say that you are His Majesty''s son living abroad." When Qin Chi heard this, his eyes widened suddenly, "That''s ridiculous! It''s all nonsense. My father is an out-and-out peasant man." "But you do have two to three similarities with His Majesty, especially when you were handling cases recently with a cold face." Xia Wei glanced at Qin Chi''s face a few more times. This speculation does exist among the powerful. It was only after Qin Chi went to Dali Temple to take up a post. The big reason was that Qin Chi was infected by the solemn and solemn atmosphere of Dali Temple, and his majesty grew day by day. At first glance, Emperor Ming Cheng looks quite young. Qin Chi was speechless. This cannot be refuted. My grandfather and Emperor Ming Cheng were brothers from the same mother. They were related by blood. It was not surprising that there were two or three points between the eyebrows, but it was outrageous for outsiders to make random guesses. In fact, it seems that Qin Chi and Emperor Ming Cheng are not similar now. However, the veterans in the court have seen Emperor Ming Cheng''s young appearance. In the past, Qin Chi was gentle and reserved, and no one noticed the similarity. The main reason is that no one thought about it, that is, Qin Chi suddenly became sharp. Bilu, and happened to be seen by a certain veteran, and it seemed like he saw the young Emperor Mingcheng in a trance. Thus, the rumor that the prince was living abroad had basis! Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Thinking about Qin Chi''s unprecedented promotion speed and Emperor Ming Cheng''s preference for him, it seems more like the rumors were confirmed, causing some opportunistic people to hurriedly want to marry their daughters to him. At this time, Qin Chi still didn''t understand something, "This is the first time I heard this rumor. I would like to thank Mr. Xia for informing me." "You are welcome." Xia Wei waved his hand, "At first, this matter was spread in a small circle among the upper class circles, and no one dared to speak openly about it. Now it''s hard to say how it will be spread." I am afraid that the rumor that Qin Chi is the illegitimate son of Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty has been confirmed. Rumors always get more and more outrageous! Returned home. Qin Chi summoned Old Man Hong and asked about the rumors. Old Man Hong said: "I just found out too." "That shouldn''t have spread." Qin Chi narrowed his eyes slightly to hide the danger in his eyes, "Did this rumor start accidentally, or was it deliberately done by some people..." "Master, do you want to investigate?" Old Man Hong asked. Qin Chi said coldly: "Check!" "yes!" Old Man Hong turned and left. It is said that the source of this matter needs to be investigated, but it is actually not an easy task, because it was spread privately among powerful people. Who dares to ask them openly? Of course, it is difficult to inquire about people with high status, but the servants around them can. It took several days. At the end of the investigation, the source was found in Dali Temple. The first person to say this was the Prime Minister of Dali Temple, a veteran minister who was over fifty years old. He said this out of emotion: Qin Shaoqing is so charming. Just now I seemed to have seen His Majesty in his youth. This was heard by those who cared. Then word spread. It was still spread secretly and furtively. Qin Chi knew the reason and almost laughed angrily, "This old and uncultivated person, I usually ask him to do something without any hesitation, let''s not talk about it. He has become old and mature, and he can''t do things smoothly. I don''t want to catch him yet." Caught. I dont believe he really just acted out of emotion. Uncle Hong, go find out who is behind him. "Okay, sir." It''s not that Old Man Hong hasn''t checked Dali Temple Cheng before, and he hasn''t found anyone suspicious. This man''s surname was Luo. He had been the Prime Minister for more than 20 years and had never moved his position. There were rumors that he was lucky enough to become the Prime Minister because he had no backer. And the fact that he stayed for such a long time seemed to prove that he had no backer. Now that I think about it, that''s suspicious. Chapter 352 rise up Chapter 352 Resurgence Qin Chi first thought that someone was targeting him. Just at this moment, Old Li Tou came in from outside and said, "Sir, someone sent you a post, saying it was from the Li Mansion." "Li Mansion?" Qin Chi took the post and opened it, "Hey, Mr. Rong has returned to Beijing. He invited me to come over and have a party." Mr. Rong is Li Huarong, the former head of the Hanlin Academy and cabinet scholar. He angered Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty because of his forthright advice, and was dismissed from his position. Qin Chi received advice from Li Huarong before taking the imperial examination, and after winning the first prize, he also visited Li''s house. After that, Li Huarong went out to travel. The two of them can be regarded as having a teacher-student relationship. Qin Chi asked Lao Li to prepare some etiquette and immediately got into the carriage and set off. People got off the bus in front of the gate of Li Mansion. The concierge seemed to have known that he would come. After he signed his name, he immediately let him in. After a while, the housekeeper led him to see the master''s house. No surprises. In the study, Qin Chi met Li Huarong. Li Huarong was sitting at the desk writing an inscription when he saw Qin Chi coming in and looked up. "Students meet Mr. Rong." Qin Chi stepped forward politely and saluted. Li Huarong hummed, "Find a chair to sit on." He kept writing in his hand. Qin Chi sat down near the charcoal stove. There was a pot of boiling water boiling on the stove, which was steaming and could be used to make tea at any time. Qin Chi raised his eyes and glanced at Li Huarong who was busy, reached out and picked up the tea set and tea leaves placed aside, and slowly made tea. When Li Huarong finished writing the last word, he put down the brush in his hand and looked up to see Qin Chi sitting in front of the charcoal stove, drinking tea contentedly. He couldn''t help but smile silently, got up and walked over. He lifted up his clothes and sat down. Qin Chi handed him a bowl of warm tea with both hands, "Sir, please have some tea." "You feel at ease." Li Huarong picked up the tea bowl and warmed his hands first, "Your uncle and I were originally worried that you would not be able to adapt to the officialdom for the first time, but who knew that you are so good at it, you are simply born to eat this bowl of rice." "Sir, that''s ridiculous." Qin Chi smiled modestly. Li Huarong finished half a bowl of tea and sighed comfortably, "It would be nice if I could warm up another pot of wine on this cold day." "If you want to drink it, you can ask a servant to get it now." "Forget it, it''s boring if you don''t drink if I drink." "I''ll have a drink, no problem." "No, I''m afraid your uncle will find out and blame me." Li Huarong knew that Qin Chi was not suitable for drinking. Qin Chi chuckled, "When did you return to Beijing, sir?" "It was the one who asked me to come back two days ago." Li Huarong''s words meant that Emperor Ming Cheng suddenly called him back to the capital. "There is a shortage of people in the court, and I got a big advantage." The collapse of the Yang, Yuan, and Liu families implicated a large number of officials. Let the DPRK free up a large number of vacancies, and some of the vacancies have already been filled. With Qin Chi''s help, Lu Yanji and Lu Baizhou also found an opportunity to be transferred out of the Hanlin Academy, and their official positions were slightly promoted. However, not everyone is qualified for important positions. For example, a cabinet minister committed suicide, and the Ministry of Industry still lacked a chancellor. Li Huarong was originally a cabinet minister. When Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty had no one available, a servant mentioned Li Huarong''s name. When Li Huarong comes back here, he will either rejoin the cabinet and take over Mr. Yang Ge''s previous job, or he will become the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. Both positions are very important. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to do both. When talking about the situation between North Korea and China, Li Huarong mentioned the revolt. Qin Chi asked: "Where do you want to go, sir?" Li Huarong''s previous position has already been taken over. Even if he returns to the cabinet this time, he will probably take over Yang Zhengkai''s position. "Personally, I would rather be appointed Minister of the Ministry of Industry, but it is unlikely." "It depends on what your Majesty wants." Qin Chi had the illusion that he was showing off. There are few civil servants who don''t want to join the cabinet. This is the lifelong goal of most Hanlin Academy officials. Qin Chi asked again: "Sir, do you know Luo Sicheng of Dali Temple? I checked him and found that he is the same generation as you." "Why do you suddenly ask about him? Has he offended you?" Li Huarong asked this, obviously knowing Luo Si Cheng. Qin Chi told the rumors outside. Li Huarong looked serious when he heard this, "I''m not sure who he is. He doesn''t have much contact with me. I just attended a poetry meeting before the imperial examination, and I saw that he praised the article "Yan Jiangnan" quite highly. , I am very respectful in my words. "Then he is from Jiangnan?" Qin Chi knew that this was not accurate. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Sure enough, Li Huarong shook his head and said, "There were many scholars who admired Yan Jiangnan''s talents and learning. This is not based on evidence." Emperor Ming Cheng''s ascension to the throne will naturally clear out the remnants of the former prince''s faction. Li Huarong didn''t say this, but Qin Chi could understand it. Qin Chi gave Li Huarong more tea, stood up and walked to the door. He opened the door and saw Qin Ba guarding him outside. Then he closed the door again, then walked to the window and paused for a long time. Li Huarong saw his actions and understood: "I backed away before, but now no one is approaching the study, oh, except for the people you brought." "Okay." Qin Chi indeed had no one eavesdropping. He sat down in front of the charcoal stove again. He spoke softly and told Li Huarong about the former prince, Yan Jiangnan and others. Before coming to the capital last year, he went to Huangshan to meet Helian Pu. He Lianpu told him that Li Huarong could be trusted. Li Huarong was shocked that the first prince was still alive, "Are you sure? When the first prince died, I was also at the scene -" The following words stopped abruptly. Qin Chi''s eyes flashed slightly when he saw this. There is obviously something wrong with Li Huarong''s attitude? After a long while, Li Huarong said in disbelief: "His Majesty went to stare at the body for a long time in person, and then called three waves of people to check the body. They all unanimously said that the deceased was the former prince. He also specially called several imperial doctors to examine it. Very soon Theres definitely no trace of disguise. Therefore, he never doubted that the late prince was alive. Qin Chi just wanted to say, if you can''t deceive outsiders, how can you deceive Emperor Mingcheng? "I heard that many people keep a substitute since childhood." Li Huarong suddenly thought of this. Qin Chi smiled and did not deny what he said. However, the two of them knew that it was not easy to create a substitute, let alone a complete imagination. Many of them just had similar faces and were disguised. After careful inspection, the imperial doctor could detect them. An uncertain mystery for the moment. The two agreed not to delve deeper. Before the night was about to begin, Qin Chi said goodbye. When he first returned home, Old Man Hong handed him another post, "Post from the East Palace." Qin Chi was shocked when he heard it was the East Palace. Immediately, an idea flashed in my mind, and I thought of the rumor that was spreading secretly, and suddenly I understood the malicious intention of the person behind the scenes. Kill with a borrowed knife. Chapter 353 Emperors grandson Chapter 353 The Emperors Grandson Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty was not young, and he was regarded as a long-lived emperor throughout the past and present. However, as he grew older, the issue of the crown prince attracted more and more attention. The prince''s body could not bear it. King Lu was disabled, and King Shou had no intention of becoming emperor. According to the current attitude of Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty, Sun Helianmian, the only emperor to participate in politics, is the most likely person to succeed to the throne. Compared with the serious power struggles among many adult princes during the time of the Supreme Emperor, the current court seems to be particularly peaceful on the surface. But, suddenly an illegitimate child appeared? And this illegitimate son is still prospering in the court, and at the same time he has both political integrity and talent, and is famous all over the world! Because some people were not vigilant, batch after batch of personnel were sent to Huizhou to investigate. Qin Chi was pushed to the forefront. I opened it and read the content on the post. It was not a formal greeting, but an appointment for Qin Chi to meet privately at Ning Guogong''s house tomorrow. The person who signed it was Helian Mian and stamped it with his seal. A very formal appointment. In fact, a junior will be getting married tomorrow in Duke Ningguo''s mansion. There were many visitors that day, and Qin Chi was also invited. When Qin Chi came over, He Lianmian wanted to see him in private, but he couldn''t refuse. Someone sent this post, which means they take him somewhat seriously. At least you don''t treat people with a condescending attitude. This approach can easily win people''s favor. "The emperor''s eldest grandson has capable people around him." Qin Chi handed the post to Qin Ba who was aside and put it away. "I have met the emperor''s eldest grandson several times at court meetings. He doesn''t seem to be such a meticulous person, let alone someone who cares about other people''s moods." Rich families usually have scholars who come to serve as aides. It''s not that no one came to Qin Chi to recommend him, but he didn''t accept them rashly, mainly because he was too discerning. The next day. The warm sun in winter shines on the earth. Qin Chi set off for Duke Ning''s Mansion half an hour earlier than scheduled. Duke Ning''s mansion belonged to the princes and nobles at the top of the capital. Qin Chi had witnessed this overwhelming wealth with his own eyes. It''s just that he can think of coming here in advance, and so can others. Therefore, when Qin Chi came, there was already a bustling crowd in front of the Duke''s Mansion. According to his official status, he was not very conspicuous among the guests. The splendid palace lanterns set off the joy and splendor of the whole hall. Red silk was hung high, with happy words dotted on it, and the sound of silk and bamboo orchestral music was constantly flowing, intertwined with the sounds of congratulations and laughter, making it very lively. Behind the hustle and bustle. In a quiet inner room. Qin Chi was led here. Guards and a chamberlain stood guard outside. In the room, there was only a cold and handsome boy. Helian Mian was dressed in a brocade robe, and his childish face showed a seriousness and majesty that was inconsistent with his age. It seems a bit immature in Qin Chi''s eyes. In other words, Helian Mian learned the art of emperors from Emperor Ming Cheng, and subconsciously imitated Emperor Ming Cheng. At first glance, it doesn''t seem like much, but if you look closely, you''ll find it''s a bit inconsistent. After all, this is just a teenager, and it still takes a person''s rich experience to maintain his momentum. Qin Chi said it was understandable. This was a private meeting between just the two of them. Helian Mian was in the process of changing his voice, and his voice was a bit sharp, but he deliberately wanted to cover up the out-of-control tone: "Qin Shaoqing, you came later than I expected." "I pay my respects to Your Highness." Qin Chi pretended not to hear and bowed his head as usual, saying, "It''s my fault, I kept His Highness waiting for so long." Annoyance flashed in Helian Mian''s eyes. He didn''t mean to find fault with what he said just now. He originally wanted to express his closeness, but as a result, his words came out as if he wanted to find fault, but it was impossible for Helianmian to explain or apologize. He wanted to see Qin Chi because he heard the rumors and wanted to test it out. He also wanted to win over Qin Chi according to what his staff said. Qin Chi''s attitude was respectful and calm. He Lianmian asked Qin Chi to sit down. After thanking him, he lifted up his clothes and sat down. Tea was served soon. In fact, was Qin Chi really late? Not really. The post sent last night only said that we would meet at the wedding banquet today. There was no agreed time in it. Qin Chi came relatively early. "Do you know why I invited you here today?" Helian Mian simply got to the point. Qin Chi lowered his head slightly and said in a respectful tone: "Your Highness, I am here to listen to your teachings as requested." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "I don''t take the teachings seriously. I just heard that my imperial grandfather admired you very much and came here to make friends." As He Lianmian spoke, he also looked at Qin Chi''s appearance. Compared with the blatant look in He Lian Mian''s eyes, Qin Chi always adhered to etiquette, lowered his eyelids and did not look at each other. Helian Mian was a bit strange. If you don''t have that thought, you won''t think about having an illegitimate child. Now that I have this idea, why do they look a bit similar, like they are from the Helian family. Qin Chi''s heart tightened, but his face remained calm, allowing Helian Mian to look at him. Although there were only two people, the atmosphere was inexplicably tense. He Lianmian put down the tea bowl and said in a slightly louder voice, "Some people say that you are a descendant of my royal family who is living abroad. Qin Qi''an, what did you say?" "Is there such a rumor? Who said it? Your Highness must investigate clearly and don''t let the person with ulterior motives behind it succeed." Qin Chi showed surprise at the right time, and then seriously suspected the purpose of the person behind it, "My father He is an out-and-out farmer, and he is genuine. The person who spread this rumor is really vicious. " Hearing this, Helian Mian was startled. What''s the purpose? He was not stupid, and he quickly thought of the purpose of the person behind it. In all likelihood, he wanted to destroy the person in front of him. Helian Mian secretly observed Qin Chi''s expression. Seeing that his attitude towards him was always respectful and showed no signs of neglect. Helian Mian straightened his attitude, put on a straight face as a young man, and pretended to be serious: "Has Qin Shaoqing ever offended anyone?" "this" Qin Chi had a hard-to-speak look on his face, "I don''t know who I have offended. I have offended the Yuan family before, but the Yuan family has received the retribution they deserve." "Then where are you at Dali Temple?" Helianmian asked. Qin Chi was confused again: "I have always acted in accordance with the public. I have handled more than ten cases and arrested some people." "Is there nothing suspicious in this?" "Xiaguan didn''t think about it for a moment." Qin Chi pretended to be confused. No matter how He Lianmian asked, he looked like he didn''t know. "There are thousands of similar people in the world, and Xiaguan is not the only one. That rumor As long as someone goes to Huizhou to investigate, they can find out that it is a lie, and they dont know what the person behind it is. He Lianmian nodded, "I guess it''s a game against you." Probably because he wanted him to deal with Qin Chi. He was young and not stupid, so he suddenly thought of the key point. Before coming here today, he was indeed wary of Qin Chi. Chapter 354 Peach blossom luck is very prosperous Chapter 354: Good Luck He Lianmian naturally knew something about Qin Chi''s background. His father is from a remote village in Yixian County, his mother is a refugee, and his grandparents are all locals. Qin Chi has been frail and sick since he was a child, but he has an extremely high talent for reading. If he had not heard that rumor, Helianmian would not have contacted Qin Chi so early in order to avoid suspicion, fearing that it would reach the ears of Emperor Mingcheng and make Emperor Mingcheng think that he was wooing the courtiers. Even if you want to win over someone, you can''t show it to the public. Stayed a while longer. He Lianmian asked Qin Chi to retreat. After Qin Chi left, two scribes came out of the compartment inside, who were Helian Mian''s staff. The two came to assist the emperor''s eldest grandson at the request of the prince, and they accounted for most of the credit for Helian Mian''s good reputation outside. "How is it? Is that rumor credible?" He Lianmian urgently needed to ask someone for confirmation. One of the scribes said: "Mr. Fang will speak first." Suddenly, Helian Mian looked at another scribe. Mr. Fang touched his beard and said: "Qin Qi''an''s tone cannot be false, and he made it clear that he is not worried about others investigating. During this period, he has made many enemies in the court, and he often touches the interests of some people. There are people behind the scenes who want to scheme. Its normal for him to want to borrow a knife to kill someone, and His Highness is probably the knife he chose. "Mr. Fang''s words make sense, but the premise is that Qin Qi''an is not of royal blood. As the saying goes, there can be no smoke without fire. Why would the person behind it spread such rumors?" The other scribe said. Mr. Fang turned to Helian Mian and said, "This requires your Highness to judge." Helian Mian was shocked when he heard this. Here we go again, here we go again! The two gentlemen often did this. One person has one principle, and then let him make the decision. Helianmian waved his hand and said: "Put the matter aside for now and wait until the people sent to Huizhou to investigate come back." "That''s right." The two gentlemen agreed. Only a fool would use someone as a knife. Even if Qin Qi''an is the emperor''s illegitimate son, the emperor must admit it first, and it will not be too late to make a decision at that time. Helianmian didn''t do much. Qin Chi''s side was not peaceful. As soon as he separated from He Lianmian, he bumped into a dressed-up girl. She almost ran into his arms. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough and pulled Qin Ba over. Blocked in front of him. For the sake of the other person''s reputation, Qin Ba kicked him away and avoided physical contact. "Bang!" The girl''s back hit the pillar of the corridor, "Ah, it hurts me to death!" "Miss? Miss, are you okay?" A maid in green clothes ran out from the flowers hiding next to her and hurriedly went to help her girl. What else didn''t Qin Chi understand when he saw it? The other party had been hiding here for a long time, waiting for him to come out and cause an accident. He winked at Qin Ba, passed the master and servant, and left directly. When the young lady recovered from the pain, Qin Ba was nowhere to be found. The shadows of Chi and Qin Ba? Wait for a while. Qin Ba looked back and breathed a sigh of relief when he didn''t see anyone following him, "Sir, that''s a girl from the second room of Duke Ning''s mansion, a concubine." "You know all this?" Qin Chi was surprised. How did Qin Ba recognize a girl in the boudoir? Qin Ba puffed up his chest and said, "Young Master has been very prosperous recently. I must investigate the place you are going to visit first." Before coming to the Duke''s Mansion, Old Man Hong warned him. Don''t let the young master be tricked by the wife in the back house. Qin Chi glanced at him lightly and said with disgust: "Your reaction just now was not as fast as my master''s." Qin Ba''s expression froze. The next moment it wilted, like an eggplant beaten by frost. "I didn''t expect that there would be someone hiding in the flowers. Besides, this is the front yard, and the girl''s family is in the back house." Qin Ba was limited by his inherent thinking. The front yard is a place for men''s activities, especially wedding banquets at home. Many foreign men are invited to the banquet. Girls who have not left the court will be restrained in the back house to avoid bumping into the foreign men and losing their reputation. The rules of wealthy families are even stricter. Therefore, Qin Bayi didn''t expect that he almost let the girl succeed. In this world, when a strange man and woman hug each other, a woman''s innocence is lost. Will his son marry or not? The more he thought about Qin Ba, the more he felt frightened. The two of them had just passed through the corridor. I met a man dressed as a butler walking towards me, "Is that Qin Shaoqing in front of me? My father-in-law has invited me." "Can you please lead the way, housekeeper?" Qin Chi replied politely. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! This time the housekeeper took Qin Chi to the courtyard where Ning Guogong lived. When he came there, he found that not only Ning Guogong was alone, but also a military commander. Qin Chi stepped forward to hold the junior ceremony: "Qi''an has met Lord Ning Guo and Lord Ling Ding." "Haha, no matter how polite you are, we are all members of our family. Come and sit down. But, this one would rather you call him General Ling." Ning Guogong said with a smile. The middle-aged general sitting next to him was quite powerful. This man is Ling Dinghou and the father of Ling Yuanhao. Ling Dinghou looked at Qin Chi as if he were looking at his own junior, "Don''t listen to the nonsense of the Duke of the Kingdom. There is no need to call you Lord Marquis and General, just call Uncle Ling. My three boys are always thinking about you in the northwest." Thanks to you, who would have thought that he would dare to go to the northwest to join the army incognito. " Qin Chi stood up and apologized to Ling Dinghou. Ling Yuanhao was indeed encouraged by him to join the army in the northwest. Ling Dinghou didn''t really blame Qin Chi. In fact, he was very conflicted in his heart. He wanted his son to succeed, but he was also worried that his son would be too successful and make Emperor Ming Cheng jealous of the Hou Mansion. Ning Guogong happily interrupted, "Okay, the third boy is born to be a general. It''s you who insist on letting him go to the Imperial College to study. Such a good young man is going to make people stupid." Ling Dinghou smiled helplessly, "If you stay in the capital, you can at least live a stable life. We live a life wrapped in horse leather, don''t we just hope that future generations can live a good life?" "Okay, okay, I can''t tell you anything." Ning Guogong clarified in his heart, wasn''t it because he was afraid of Emperor Ming Cheng and did not allow his son to come forward? Then Ning Guogong looked at Qin Chi and said, "You are a good boy." Qin Chi said modestly: "The Duke of the country is so complimentary." As soon as he finished his polite words, Ning Guogong''s beard curled up, and he spoke again in a very angry way, "Hey, without the instigation of the Qin boy, the three boys of the Ling family are still hanging around in the capital. Take a look at the generals in the northwest. They are all of a certain age. Its not a small one, but there are only a few promising young men. We, the generals of the Great Xia Dynasty, will soon have no successors. "My lord, be careful what you say!" Ling Dinghou quickly stopped him and said, "I can fight for another twenty years." Ning Guogong curled his lips. Qin Chi acted like a quail and said nothing, just silently adding tea to the bowls of Ning Guogong and Ling Dinghou. The two of them had been hurting each other for a while, and they seemed to have just noticed Qin Chi. Ling Dinghou said: "I am returning to Beijing this time to prepare military supplies." "This life shouldn''t befall you." Ning Guogong didn''t quite understand this. Ling Dinghou said again: "If no one of importance returns to Beijing, the civil servants in the court will not readily approve the military resources." These words left Ning Guogong speechless. Chapter 355 Duke Nings Mansion Chapter 355 Duke Nings Mansion Qin Chi is now at Dali Temple. Work has nothing to do with matters such as food, grass, and military pay. Qin Chi hesitated for a moment and said, "Xia Shangshu should be easy to talk to." "The Household Department is not run by the Xia family." Ling Dinghou suddenly said this, then thought about it and said, "Xia Wei is just an old fox. Where did Qi''an hear that he is a good talker?" "Earlier, I worked as an errand in the Ministry of Industry and was responsible for rushing to produce a batch of cotton clothes. The money was approved by Xia Shangshu." As soon as Qin Chi finished speaking, Ling Dinghou looked at him with strange eyes. Then, Ling Dinghou put a big hand on Qin Chi''s shoulder, "Qi''an, would you like to help Uncle Ling and urge the civil servants to prepare military supplies as soon as possible? The northwest is waiting for these things to save lives." "What you said is serious, don''t scare Mr. Qin." Ning Guogong took a sip of tea and said with a smile. Qin Chi hasn''t spoken yet. Ling Dinghou immediately retorted: "We are about to start a war with the Tatars. Without enough food, grass and weapons to support it, it is not a matter of life. The Duke is enjoying the blessings in the capital, and he has forgotten the brothers guarding the border. How difficult it must be. "I haven''t forgotten, I haven''t forgotten!" Ning Guogong said that he did not mean that, "Wars have always been a waste of money. If there is no money in the national treasury, it will be useless to press for it." Ling Dinghou didn''t believe it. Ning Guogong looked around, then approached Ling Dinghou and whispered: "Your Majesty has squandered most of the national treasury in recent years, and the rest can barely support the normal operation of the court. But this time the military resources can be prepared. The house was confiscated not long ago. I have received a large sum of money, so I will hurry up and collect it. I heard that your Majesty wants to build a Taoist temple and a royal palace. " Ling Dinghou''s eyes widened when he heard this. Qin Chi also heard it with the tips of his ears, and he lowered his head and pretended not to hear. Qin Chi knew more than Ling Dinghou, who was in the northwest, but who dared to say whether he was the emperor or not. Anyone who dared to speak out would be dismissed from their posts or the grass on their graves would grow too tall. Ning Guogong''s words were a reminder to Ling Dinghou, asking him to hurry up and urge the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households to secure the general resources as soon as possible. If he continues to delay, the money will be misappropriated again, and he will not be able to squeeze out the money even if he kills those civil servants. thing. Ling Dinghou moved his eyes towards Qin Chi. It was as if he was asking Qin Chi for confirmation. Qin Chi nodded slightly, indicating that it was indeed true. At that moment, Ling Dinghou couldn''t sit still, "I have to leave beforehand. Although the annual leave has not ended yet, the military situation on the border is urgent, so I still have to go to the palace to discuss it with His Majesty." "Let''s go, let''s go. Qin Boy and I still need two drinks." Ning Guogong waved his hand to Ling Dinghou to leave. Ling Dinghou stood up and bowed to Ning Guogong as a farewell gift. Qin Chi also stood up and bowed to Ling Dinghou, and then watched Ling Dinghou hurriedly leave the courtyard. Ning Guogong smiled and said: "What are you looking at? Come on, sit down quickly." Then he called for the servants to remove the tea and replace it with a pot of wine and a few side dishes to accompany the wine. "The banquet doesn''t start so early. Let''s have a drink first to warm ourselves up." Ning Guogong raised the jug and started pouring wine for Qin Chi. Qin Chi stood up weakly and stretched out his hand to block the situation, "You''re welcome, Mr. Guo. It''s time for this junior to pour you some wine." "Treat this place as your own, and be less polite, and I will be happier." Today, a junior is getting married in the Duke Guo''s Mansion, and there is no need for Duke Ning to entertain the guests. I had a few drinks with Mr. Ning Guo. Qin Chi only touched his lips most of the time, so Ning Guogong drank most of the pot, and Qin Chi still had more than half of the wine in his cup. Ning Guogong heard that he was in poor health and did not force him to drink. "Boy Qin, I have several beautiful granddaughters at home. Do you want to choose one?" "The Duke is drunk, and the boy is already drunk." I''m married." Qin Chi declined. Ning Guogong waved his hand, "I''m not asking you to marry a wife, but just take her back and become a noble concubine. Red sleeves add fragrance, and you have a lovely wife and beautiful concubine. Wouldn''t it be nice?" "I feel guilty that I have wronged the young lady of your house too much, so I''d better forget it." Others dared to give it away, but Qin Chi did not dare to ask for it. Speaking of which, he didn''t have much contact with Ning Guogong. He only had a few cases where Ning Guogong facilitated him. Moreover, Ling Dinghou worked under his maternal grandfather. Judging from his visit to the Duke''s mansion, Ning Guogong should be one of his own. It''s just that it''s unclear how much Ning Guogong knows about his affairs. But Qin Chi refused the concubine issue. When Ning Guogong saw this, he did not force himself. After the banquet was set up, Qin Chi followed the servants out and arrived at his seat, surrounded by his colleagues on the left and right. During the banquet, people drank wine and drank wine. Qin Chi coped with this easily. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Men and women were seated separately here, which actually reduced some troubles. However, people would often come over to talk and say they wanted to give him women, which annoyed him a little. However, these things are very common in other people''s minds. Some people even couldn''t understand why Qin Chi refused. One of the colleagues came over with a wine glass. Qin Chi looked up and saw that it was Ke Bingzhi from the Hanlin Academy. Something happened to the Yang family, but this person was not implicated. Ke Bingzhi looked a little drunk, and he put his hand on Qin Chi''s shoulder, "I say Master Qin, it is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. Everyone wanted to marry you with good intentions, but you rejected them all when you came, right? Dont you look down on us? "That''s right, are you looking down on us?" "Master Qin is not afraid of henpecks, is he?" "I heard that Mr. Qin''s wife has a very ordinary appearance. It''s really suspicious that Mr. Qin still lets her live alone." Qin Chi was almost called an alien. Everyone teased Qin Chi one by one. Qin Chi remained as still as a mountain. When everyone had finished speaking, he said calmly: "You may not know something, but I have been in poor health since I was a child. I have suffered from serious and minor illnesses. But the doctor said that I want to live as long as possible. The point is, it must be about cultivating your character. There is no need to say what you will choose between life and women. As soon as these words came out. Everyone else is sarcastic. Ke Bingzhi said dryly: "Is there still such a thing? It turns out that Mr. Qin is delicate and frail. I misunderstood him." Qin Chi was not angry even when someone said he was delicate and frail. His gentle smile remained unchanged. He raised his glass and said, "What''s the point? To tell you the truth, I''m quite envious of Mr. Ke. He has many lovely wives and concubines in his family. I often hear that You trade with others." "Haha, what''s wrong? Misinformation." Ke Bingzhi wiped away the cold sweat. How can this matter of changing concubines be brought to the surface? After Qin Chi''s words, no one mentioned any other women. Even the idea of ??sending a woman to Qin Chi''s back house as an informant with the help of nobles in the palace had to be given up. Someone on the side gave Qin Chi a thumbs up. With such a revelation, anyone who sends a woman to the Qin family in the future must think carefully, otherwise, if he insists on sending a woman to the Qin family, he will kill him. This is not about making friends, but about making enemies. Chapter 356 Self-cultivation Chapter 356 Cultivating ones moral character What was said at the banquet quickly reached Ning Guogong. Ning Guogong was drinking with Helian Mian at this time, and he was a little drunk. Helian Mian poured wine for Ning Guogong, "Qin Qi''an said that we should cultivate our moral character. How much do you believe this?" "Your Highness, how many promising officials are there who trade concubines back and forth all day long? You can judge for yourself." Ning Guogong almost didn''t say that those people''s moral character was flawed, and indirectly praised Qin Chi. He Lianmian listened to the words, compared them carefully in his mind, and immediately stopped asking, "I originally wanted my mother to reward Qin Qi''an with a few beautiful maids, but it seems that I have to forget it now." Ning Guogong''s mouth twitched. Suddenly, there was some noise outside. Ning Guogong got up and called people to ask what happened. A servant came and reported hesitantly: "The Duke of Guo is the fifth young lady of the second room. He said that Mr. Qin bullied her and was about to seek death. He wants Mr. Qin to give him justice." "Nonsense!" Ning Guogong was so angry that he blew his beard and stared. He still doesnt know who Qin Qian is? It was impossible to bully his granddaughter on this occasion. It was probably the careless people in the back house who were planning something. Ning Guogong looked back at Helian Mian, who was sitting not far away. He did not want to hear such things from Helian Mian, so as not to taint His Highness''s ears. In fact, he was afraid of losing the face of the Duke''s palace. "Lock up the fifth young lady. After the wedding banquet is over, send her to Zhuangzi outside the city to wake up. No one in the house is allowed to help her. Let her come back when she has figured it out." Ning Guogong ordered. The people immediately did it. Miss Ning Wu was the girl who almost bumped into Qin Chi but was kicked away by Qin Ba. She originally wanted to give up, but her biological mother didn''t want to. Anyway, the person was injured, so he was vague and asked the family to find Qin Chi and threaten to seek justice for the Fifth Miss. What''s more, there is nothing wrong with the bullying in their words, it''s just that this bullying, in their vague words, makes people think of things between men and women. Wait for the back house. Miss Ning Wu and her aunt were locked up. "He really died before he left the army, haha." The second wife of the Duke''s Mansion raised her lips mockingly. The girls from all the houses watching the show were extremely disdainful. Fortunately, no trouble occurred, and fortunately their grandfather was not an old fool. Otherwise, the reputation of the girls in the Duke''s Palace would be lost. Qin Chi didn''t know that there was a peach blossom incident, and he was forcibly suppressed as soon as he got up. He is now riding back home in a carriage. As soon as he returned, Qin Chi received news that there was movement in Jianning and Fuzhou, and that grain dealers were hoarding grain. After investigation, it was the Liu family who was behind it. Qin Chi remembered that Ling Dinghou was preparing food and salary, "Uncle Hong, do you want my position as Shaoqing to be moved up? There is a war in the northwest, and I want to get to a high position as soon as possible to help my grandfather and the others." "Young Master, you want to be transferred back to the Sixth Department?" Old Man Hong thought of Qin Chi''s intention. Qin Chi did not deny it, "There were two suspicious cases before. The former young minister of Dali Temple was accused of murder in Jianghu." "Are you referring to the cases in Jinhai Hutong and Zuixian Tower?" Old Man Hong suddenly guessed what Qin Chi wanted to do, "Are you trying to find out what happened to the former Crown Prince and Yan Jiangnan?" "It doesn''t have to be evidence." Qin Chi now wants to take advantage of the former prince''s career to get promoted. So the next day, Qin Chi went to the Dali Temple Yamen in advance to investigate the files and files, and then invited Chen Qianhu from Jinyiwei for a drink. This Chen Qianhu was the Jin Yiwei who led the team to protect Qin Chi when Qin Chi went to Taihu to provide disaster relief. "How come Mr. Qin has time to invite me to drink?" Chen Qianhu was surprised to receive Qin Chi''s invitation. You must know that Qin Chi has not contacted them since the last time they went to disaster relief together. Jin Yiwei is a presence that court officials avoid, especially some officials who look at them as if they are looking at dirty things. Qin Chi could be said to be the new rich man in the court, and he suddenly came to invite him to drink. He was still very curious about what the other party wanted to do with him. Qin Chi took a piece of roast duck with his chopsticks and put it into a bowl. "Do you want an opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune?" Chen Qianhu raised his eyebrows and said, "Come and listen." This means no rejection. Qin Chi said sternly: "It''s an old case in Jinhai Hutong and Zuixian Tower. The case that Yang Lingyu handled earlier. After reviewing it, I noticed some suspicious things. Someone seemed to be trying to hide something, and the case was hastily settled in the world. "Vendetta." "This is what happened..." Chen Qianhu didn''t know whether he should mention it to Qin Chi, but finally said, "Yang Lingyu is dead. Why should Mr. Qin ask for trouble? The case is over." Qin Chi was surprised to hear what he said. Naturally, this meaning was not explicit. Chen Qianhu''s hidden meaning was to make Qin Chi not want to deal with this case. Qin Chi dipped his fingers into the tea and wrote a few words on the table: Is Jin Yiwei still investigating? Chen Qianhu struggled for a while, but decided to sell Qin Chi, and nodded, "There is no big progress in the investigation." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi smiled, just as he wanted. He wiped the traces very clean without leaving any traces alive. Jin Yiwei also needed clues if he wanted to investigate. He had long been wary of Jin Yiwei''s methods, so he concentrated on having others study it, so that he would not leave any traces. There were more traces left on the former prince''s side, at least some of the bodies were buried. Recently, the northwestern Tatar army was approaching, and the people behind it wanted to cause trouble for him, and also targeted his wife. Qin Chi knew that he couldn''t justify not doing something. So, Qin Chi discussed with Chen Qianhu in a low voice. There is no reason not to do things that are mutually beneficial. The two hit it off immediately. The two of them did not take any action after that, and the quiet time ended at the end of the annual vacation. Officials from the DPRK went to the Yamen one after another to go on duty. Qin Chi put on his official uniform and went to the Yamen. He first went to the Hanlin Academy. After going through a cutscene, we went to Dali Temple again. I met Dong Xingde when I went over. Dong Xingde was also the chief minister of Dali Temple. Dali Temple is responsible for reviewing criminal cases. The largest official is the Minister of Dali Temple, and there is only one. The following positions are Shaoqing, Si Cheng, Si Zheng, Si Deputy and Judge. Si Cheng is divided into Zuosi Cheng and You Si Cheng. It is said to the outside world that Qin Chi resembles Luo Si Cheng of Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty, and belongs to Zuo Si Cheng. Dong Xingde is the Prime Minister of Yousi. In addition, Lu Baizhou was transferred to Dali Temple as the temple chief and is working under Qin Chi. Lu Yanji went to the Ministry of Rites. Qin Chi greeted his colleagues respectively and then went to the archives room to read the files. After that, take people out. He first went to Jinhai Hutong, the house of the wealthy businessman. After that incident, the government sealed the house. No matter how good the house was, no one lived in it and no one took care of it. After a long time, it would become a little bit... The child is wasted. Many people died in this house back then. Everyone in the surrounding area knows about it, so the house cannot be sold even if it wants to be sold. Chapter 357 The reason for finding trouble Chapter 357 The reason for finding trouble Qin Chi pushed the door open and started checking deliberately. "Sir, why are you suddenly interested in investigating the case in Jinhai Hutong?" Lu Baizhou asked as he stretched out his hand to brush away the cobwebs, "I heard that this case is similar to the case in Zuixianlou. After investigation, it is said that it is the same group of people. Do it. When talking about this case, Lu Baizhou''s eyes lit up. Investigating cases is much more interesting than being in the Hanlin Academy. Qin Chi looked back at him and said, "This case is actually not closed yet. Yang Lingyu pressed it. It has actually attracted the attention of Jinyiwei. Jinyiwei has been investigating. I don''t know to what extent it has been investigated." Lu Baizhou is Qin Chi''s confidant. Qin Chi did not hide the matter. Lu Baizhou asked: "You can go to Jinyiwei''s Yamen to check the files." "Then you need permission from above." Qin Chi curled his lips and said with a hint of a smile. Lu Baizhou thought for a while, "How about I apply first and see if Jinyiwei will allow it?" "We''ll investigate first and then talk." Qin Chi wandered around the wealthy businessman''s house. There is no one in the big house, not even a servant. The architecture and layout here can be seen to be carefully crafted and elegant, which is the pattern of Suzhou gardens. No one is taking care of it, and it lacks popularity. Qin Ba and Lao Huo are also coming today, as well as the servants from Dali Temple. The mansion was searched. Qin Chi was carefully observing the layout of the house, and finally his eyes fell on a rockery close to the wall in a remote yard. The rockery seemed to be deliberately made, and a circle was made of stones to surround the rockery. A small, shallow pool was set up around the rockery, housing several koi carp. I dont know how the craftsmen handled it. The water in the small pool is alive, and the small stones above flow out a scenery similar to a small waterfall. "What are you looking at, Master?" Qin Ba found Qin Chi standing in front of the rockery for a long time. Lu Baizhou also came over. His official hat was covered with spider webs and even his cheeks were dusty. He walked towards Qin Chi and patted the dirt on his body. Qin Bayi looked amused and said, "Did Master Lu dig into that dog hole?" "No, I just walked around and came to a woodshed. When I saw that the door was not closed, I went in to take a look. Unknowingly, I was covered in dust." Lu Baizhou searched very carefully. After entering the woodshed, he also moved several bundles of firewood inside. Not even the floor was spared, they were all knocked on. But there was no gain, so he didn''t say anything. But experienced people, such as Lao Huo, can tell what he did at a glance, "What''s going on in this house? The Yamen has searched it many times, especially the woodshed." "Bah bah." Lu Baizhou spat out the suspected sand in his mouth, "Am I inexperienced? Let''s accumulate some experience first." The three of them were there talking. Qin Chi still seemed attracted to the rockery. Suddenly, a man shouted loudly not far from the house, "Who?! What are you doing sneaking around there?" Then there was the sound of someone running away. Someone else shouted: "Catch him!" "There is still someone hiding there! Don''t let him escape. This thief runs away when he sees someone. It''s clear that he has a guilty conscience!" The voice sounded to be Jin Yiwei Chen Qianhu. This time Chen Qianhu pretended to be on an errand and passed by here, pretending to the outside world that he accidentally bumped into a few people who were acting suspiciously and arrested them. In fact, this was something he and Qin Chi had discussed in advance, and the purpose was these spies. Qin Chi''s people had previously found several spies'' intelligence bases, but they needed a clear reason to find trouble. When a few living people were in the hands of Jin Yiwei, there were more things that could be dug out. Some people wanted to commit suicide in time. Jin Yiwei was used to seeing this kind of situation and took precautions in advance. "These people are even more suspicious." Chen Qianhu said to his subordinates, "The first time I was arrested, I sought death. The origin is not simple. Brothers, when the opportunity to make meritorious deeds comes, take the person back for interrogation first." "yes!" Several Jin Yiwei stepped forward to comply. A guard in Jinyi checked the surroundings and hurriedly came back to report: "Sir, there is someone in the house. I just went to ask, and they said that people from Dali Temple are handling the case here." Chen Qianhu pretended to be confused and asked: "What cases have happened here?" "Reporting to your lord, there was a murder case in this house the year before last year..." The Jinyi guard explained the matter. Even though they were not responsible for this case, everyone in Jinyiwei still heard about it. Chen Qianhu asked people to take the spies back. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! He entered the house by himself and saw Qin Chi standing in front of the rockery with a distinguished temperament. "Master Qin, what a coincidence." Chen Qianhu was the first to say hello. The guards of Dali Temple looked at them warily. Lu Baizhou was equally vigilant and stood beside Qin Chi. Lao Huo and Qin Ba knew the inside story and stood aside pretending to be serious, holding the weapons on their waists. Chen Qianhu smiled and said: "Don''t be nervous, everyone. I accidentally found a few thieves nearby. It seems that they are monitoring Mr. Qin." Qin Chi finally pulled his eyes back from the rockery and looked sideways at Chen Qianhu and others who came in, "It''s Mr. Chen. What a coincidence. Why did Mr. Chen come to Jinhai Hutong today." "I just happened to be running an errand and passed by here." Chen Qianhu walked over, but stopped at an appropriate distance. The so-called appropriate distance is naturally a distance that both parties feel comfortable and safe. Officials from the DPRK and Central Government would never take the initiative to deal with the Jinyiwei outside, and Qin Chi would not openly interact with the Jinyiwei openly, so he would inevitably be ostracized by other officials. Qin Chi had made a good deal with Chen Qianhu earlier. When the two met outside, they just thought they were strangers. Qin Chi pointed at the rockery and said, "Mr. Chen, I think there is something special here. Do you want a professional to take a look?" "Oh? Let me take a look." Chen Qianhu walked around the rockery twice with an expressionless face, pretending to be sophisticated, but in fact he didn''t see anything. You must know that the original case was quite big, not only the government intervened, but also Jinyiwei''s spies There are also surveys. I dont know how many times this house has been turned over. Is there something fishy that has been discovered long ago, why cant it wait until now? It''s just that he really doesn''t know what kind of medicine Qin Chi sells in his gourd. The other party asked him to take a look, so he pretended to take a look. Qin Chi waited for him to see almost everything, "What did you see?" "I didn''t see anything." Chen Qianhu replied dryly. "Oh, you just didn''t see anything." Qin Chi ignored the rockery, turned around and walked between the rockery and the courtyard wall, tapping on several stone slabs for a while. "Pry open the slate." Qin Chi said. Then several people worked together to pry open a stone slab pointed by Qin Chi, revealing a hole that could accommodate an adult. Chen Qianhu''s eyelids twitched. This stone slab is easily ignored by people, because it is laid out there with other stone slabs and looks particularly ordinary. Normal people will be attracted by the rockery, thinking that there is something fishy about the rockery, and thus ignore the stone slabs next to it. Chapter 358 restless night Chapter 358 An Unquiet Night This is a hidden entrance to an underground passage. Qin Chi didn''t just discover it today. He knew it before and just kept it secret. The appearance just now was actually just pretending. The guards from Dali Temple took the lead in going down to explore the way. As expected, the secret passage was discovered. On that day, the news that the spy was caught reached Yan Jiangnan immediately, "Why was he suddenly caught?" "While following Qin Qi''an, I was bumped into by a passing Jinyi guard." The person who came back to report said quickly. Yan Jiangnan put down the book in his hand and asked, "What is the specific situation?" "Qin Qi''an took the officers from Dali Temple to a house in Jinhai Hutong. That house was our stronghold the year before last. We evacuated it only after it was attacked..." "Wait a minute! The house in Jinhai Hutong? Why did Qin Qi''an go there suddenly?" Yan Jiangnan looked surprised. The person reported: "They said they were looking through the files from the year before last and found something suspicious." Dali Temple was originally the department that reviewed each case. Qin Qi''an discovered that there was something wrong with the case, so he naturally wanted to investigate. The reason is very good. Yan Jiangnan wanted to say something else, but suddenly someone came over from outside and reported, "Mr. Yan, it''s bad, Dongcheng was discovered by Dali Temple and Jinyiwei at the entrance of the secret passage in Jinhai Hutong!" The secret passage in Xicheng was forced to be scrapped. Some of the evacuated personnel went to Dongcheng District to hide. Especially when the master wants to start an uprising, some people have recently sneaked into the capital and are hiding in the secret passage. This news caught Yan Jiangnan off guard. He quickly got up and walked out. He had just reached the door of his master''s bedroom. The man guarding the door stopped him. Before he could speak, someone else hurriedly came to report: "Mr. Yan, it''s bad! Our strongholds in Jinbao Street, Wu''an Hutong and Qin''an Hutong were discovered by the government!" "Is this true?" Yan Jiangnan was shocked again. These things happened one after another, almost at the same time. If no one had arranged it behind the scenes, Yan Jiangnan would not believe it. He pushed aside the guard guarding the door, stepped forward and knocked **** the lord''s door. A rapid knock on the door was heard. A man''s roar came from the door, "Get out!" "My lord, this is me. I have something urgent to do." Yan Jiangnan responded. The people inside didn''t curse anymore. After a while, the door opened from the inside, and a woman with messy clothes and hair appeared. After opening the door with her head lowered, she stepped aside. Waiting for Yan Jiangnan to enter the house. The woman lowered her head and walked out, then closed the door. When Yan Jiangnan entered, he saw a large screen in front of the bed, covering the bed, and the people inside were getting dressed. The man said: "What''s the emergency?" "Master, the entrance to the secret passage in Jinhai Hutong has been exposed, and there are three strongholds surrounded by Jinyiwei." Yan Jiangnan finished the matter quickly. "Bang!" There was a loud noise from the other side of the screen, "It''s Qin Qi''an again! Did he find that we tripped him up?" "It''s possible." Yan Jiangnan once again paid attention to this poor family champion. Every time they have bad luck seems to have his shadow? The person on the other side of the screen said fiercely: "Send someone to get rid of him! I don''t want to see him survive tonight." Someone took the order and left. Yan Jiangnan did not stop him, "What about the secret passage in Dongcheng?" "Wait a little longer and see what happens next." But he just said these words. Another person came to report hurriedly, "Report to the master, the entrances and exits of various streets in the East City have been blocked by the Jinyi Guards and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division!" "Not good!" Mr. Yan blurted out in shock. Catching a turtle in a urn? ! Realizing this, Mr. Yan''s face turned pale. He has been arrogant for half his life and has been planning for so many years. He thought he could easily win the world, but at the last moment, he made mistakes one after another. Mr. Yan said solemnly: "Lord! This situation is not right. We may have exposed our whereabouts." At this moment, the man inside snorted coldly, "Hasn''t it been exposed a long time ago? The other party has already attacked us twice. In the current crisis, as long as the people left behind are not stupid, we should cut off the Jinhai Alley at this time The secret passage, will our people be fine for a while? Think about how to break the situation, maybe sacrifice some of them if necessary." "Tune the tiger away from the mountain, sound in the east and strike in the west." Mr. Yan made a plan in a flash. Only by muddying the water can he proceed to the next step. Night falls. The atmosphere in the capital was extremely tense. The streets of Dongcheng were deserted. The shops in the city have already closed their doors and windows, and the lanterns on both sides cast a dim yellow light, reflecting the mottled shadows on the stone road. As the night deepens, a dull drumbeat sounds, announcing the beginning of the curfew. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi had already had an affair with Chen Qianhu. Manpower was mobilized in advance and all street entrances were blocked. The people in the city were hiding in their homes, and they could often hear the rapid sound of horse hooves and footsteps outside. The officers and soldiers were wearing battle armor and holding long guns. Traveling through the streets and alleys. Their footsteps were more orderly and heavy, which was very different from ordinary people walking. Therefore, just by listening to the sound, the people in the city knew that officers and soldiers were passing by their homes. The goal is to search for hidden people. Externally, it is to catch lawbreakers. Officers and soldiers searched house to house. Every time a door was opened, there was a burst of barking dogs and panicked shouts. Occasionally there would be sounds of fighting somewhere. At a street entrance on East Street, there is a checkpoint for entry and exit, and a team of officers and soldiers are guarding here with torches. Qin Chi and Chen Qianhu stood side by side. At the entrance of Jinhai Hutong, the personnel searched a section when they entered and encountered two or three mechanisms. After that, the secret passage was interrupted and blocked by a stone door. Qin Chi had the secret passages extending in all directions in the West City as a reference. He knew that the people behind them reacted in time and sealed the passages. It would take some time to dig through. "Master Qin, who do you think is behind this? Building these secret passages cannot be done overnight." The more Chen Qianhu investigated, the more frightened he became. Qin Chi pulled back and glanced at him, "It''s a force that you and I can''t afford to offend. Do you regret it?" It was a great achievement, but it also created a big trap. The person behind it now wants to eat them both alive. "call out!" A subtle sound breaking through the air suddenly sounded. "Master, be careful!" Qin Ba rushed towards Qin Chi fiercely. Almost at the same time, a ray of cold light passed by Qin Chi and fell to the ground not far away, which was a long arrow. Lao Huo quickly drew his knife and blocked Qin Chi. Qin Ba and Lao Li Tou formed a triangular formation almost at the same time, protecting Qin Chi in the middle. The three of them quickly blocked several sneak attack arrows. The opponent''s target was still Qin Chi. "Protect Mr. Qin!" Chen Qianhu shouted loudly. A group of people immediately surrounded Qin Chi. With such a human wall, it would be difficult to kill Qin Chi with a cold arrow. The next moment, in the night, several killers tried to escape. Several figures flashed out of the darkness, each chasing the killer. Chapter 359 Chaos at night Chapter 359 Chaos at night In a narrow alley. A suspicious-looking man was running with a bow and arrow. His breathing was rapid and his back was soaked with sweat. Suddenly, Qin Yi''s figure jumped down from the roof. A fierce fight broke out with the man. Between the light and shadow of the sword, the sound of metal clashing was crisp and rapid. The air was filled with the smell of blood, and every time the blade penetrated the flesh, it made people tremble with fear. The footsteps of officers and soldiers came from the alley. The fear in the man''s eyes turned into determination. The dagger in his hand suddenly turned around and stabbed into his heart, killing himself. Qin Yi''s attempt to capture him alive failed. Before the officers and soldiers arrived, they had no choice but to leave this place. "The thief is here?" "Eh, dead? Suicide?" "No, there are signs of fighting here... The hero who stopped the thief is gone." Officers and soldiers investigated the scene and came to a conclusion. Someone was called to take away the body, and a group of officers and soldiers left quickly. At this time, Qin Chi avoided an assassination and bent down to pick up a long arrow. His eyes fell on the arrow and he noticed something abnormal under the light of the fire. "Sir, this arrow is poisonous." Qin Ba said with lingering fear. Qin Chi handed the long arrow to Chen Qianhu next to him, "Come and take a look at this arrow. Do you find anything? This level of precision is no worse than those used by the army." Chen Qianhu immediately asked someone to put it away, "Did you think who would want to kill you?" "Few of the people I''ve offended before dared to assassinate me in front of the Jin Yiwei. You tell me, it''s obvious that we did it together, why are you staring at me alone? Does it mean that I''m a soft persimmon?" Qin Chi asked. Cha Ming said that the person who came to kill him was the master behind the secret passage. Chen Qianhu was speechless for a moment, "If it''s as you guessed, tonight''s event will be bigger than we both expected." He may not be able to hold it anymore! In this case, how dare you assassinate their people? What does this mean? It shows that people still have some energy left. Chen Qianhu suddenly felt that he was being used by Qin Chi, but he couldn''t do anything to him. After all, Qin Chi had made it clear from the beginning that this was an opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune. If there is an opportunity, there must be a risk. Chen Qianhu didn''t expect this risk. It was much greater than he expected. Before he could clear his mind, a fire broke out in the street next door! This is definitely no small thing. The streets are densely packed with shops. A fire in one house is likely to spread to neighboring shops. Qin Chi looked at the thick smoke billowing not far away, and keenly sensed something was wrong, "The smoke is rising too fast, Chen Qianhu, could it be that the other party is trying to divert the tiger away from the mountain?" "We are the closest to the fire. If we don''t rescue people, you and I can''t bear the blame." Chen Qianhu was extremely irritated. Not many thieves in Dongcheng have been caught yet, and something happened elsewhere. Qin Chi pointed in two other directions. The smoke also rose, confirming Qin Chi''s guess. "We can''t deal with this anymore, please report it to the commander immediately." Qin Chi sincerely gave Chen Qianhu advice. Chen Qianhu gave Qin Chi a complicated look, "Why are you just staring at me to cause trouble? I guess I haven''t offended you." "Whatever you say to be depressing, if you do it well, you will be rich and wealthy." Qin Chi smiled calmly, with a gentle look on his face. Chen Qianhu reported quickly. What''s more, Dongcheng''s actions tonight were not small, and many people above noticed it, including the commander of the Jinyi Guards, who had received the news in advance. However, Chen Qianhu was his confidant and knew that he happened to run into Qin Chi from Dali Temple, so he still Several spies were arrested and three strongholds were found. During the investigation, it was discovered that these strongholds were not simple. A batch of weapons and imperial contraband were found. The commander''s attention was here and he slightly ignored the matters in Dongcheng District. Suddenly, news came from Chen Qianhu''s side that he had stabbed a big trap. He asked for reinforcements and immediately took people over to check. Qin Chi didn''t agree with Jin Yiwei''s style of doing things, but he agreed with the speed of their work. Not a moment later, a group of royal guards came menacingly on horseback. Until the opponent came closer, the person in front was the commander of the Jin Yiwei. Qin Chi was not a stranger to him and waved to him with a smile, but the commander of the Jinyi Guards'' teeth turned sour when he saw Qin Chi. Experience told him that when Qin Qi''an was around, someone would be in bad luck. "Master Qin." The conductor dismounted his horse neatly and took the lead in greeting Qin Chi. Qin Chi casually raised his hands as a courtesy, "The commander came faster than I expected." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "No, I heard that you made a big mistake, and you were assassinated before the matter was over. Be careful when you go out in the future." The commander said sarcastically with an expressionless face. Qin Chi was thick-skinned and said he didn''t care. Tonight''s affairs will be taken over by Jinyiwei, so Dali Temple will at best be a supporter. Qin Chi has played the initial role, achieved his goal, and can retire with success. About an hour later, Qin Chi got on the carriage and asked a group of people to protect him back home. Without protection, Qin Chi was assassinated twice more within half an hour. Once I was supposed to go to a place close to a fire. Someone disguised himself as an ordinary citizen and suddenly stabbed Qin Chi with a dagger. Qin Ba, who was following him, kicked the murderer away. The officers and soldiers went up to capture him, and the murderer committed suicide by taking poison on the spot. Another time, a Jinyi guard came over and said that Chen Qianhu was looking for Qin Chi for something. When he got close to Qin Chi, he fiercely drew his sword and chopped at his head. Fortunately, Qin Chi reacted in time and narrowly avoided fatal injuries, but his arm was still chopped. Then Lao Huo and the Jin Yiwei fought. After attracting others, when the Jin Yiwei saw that his mission had failed, he immediately committed suicide by taking poison. It was a poison that sealed his throat with blood and did not give anyone a chance to react. This incident made the Jinyiwei Commander''s face look bad. This time he could not avoid the crime of dereliction of duty. What''s the reason? He brought that Jin Yiwei. "Master Qin, it''s no longer safe for you here. Why don''t you go back home and rest early?" the commander suggested sincerely. Qin Chi smiled and said, "Then it''s all about the hard work here." "This is a matter of my duty. When this matter is settled, I will send generous gifts to my house to make amends." Logically speaking, the commander of the Jinyi Guards is a rank higher than Qin Chi, the young minister of Dali Temple, but he doesn''t know why. Qin Chi was short of breath. This style is very unlike a cold-blooded leader of the Imperial Guard. Perhaps Qin Chi''s ability to escape unharmed from the fight between the Yang and Yuan families really shocked some discerning people. I dont say whether there is someone behind Qin Chi, but his luck is really good. He had a feeling. He would not get any favors from Qin Chi. So, after Qin Chi bandaged his arm injury, he arranged for a team of people to **** him back home. As for the three fires in the city. It is actually a means of feasting in Jiangnan. After the officers and soldiers besieging Dongcheng sent half of them to put out the fire, some people fled and clashed at each checkpoint. It is unknown how many people escaped in the chaos. Chapter 360 Sir, I didnt do anything Chapter 360 Sir, I didnt do anything Not long after Qin Chi returned home, he received the news. Qin Ba was puzzled: "Sir, you guessed that it was to lure the tiger away from the mountain, why didn''t you take advantage of the victory and pursue it?" "I have earned enough credit, and I have to leave some for others." Qin Chi can take over everything and take most of the credit, but he is only a young minister of Dali Temple and cannot mobilize so many troops. Although it is possible to achieve this level by using the manpower left by his uncle, it is not necessary. The reason is that he wants to take the middle road. Too much is not enough. It''s just right to do it now. There is another reason. Qin Chi would not openly confront the former prince''s forces, as that would hurt both sides and benefit others, so it was better to erect a shield for himself. Jin Yiwei is very good, with Emperor Ming Cheng behind him. After the commotion in the middle of the night. The night in the capital returned to silence again, leaving only a few distant dog barks, the blood-stained stone road, and several burned-out houses with scattered flames remaining. All this foreshadows an unquiet night. After Qin Chi had a good sleep, he went to court in high spirits. I met the ministers of the DPRK. The eyes that looked at Qin Chi one by one were complicated. He is said to be a flamboyant young man, but he is not. He behaves in a measured manner without being arrogant or arrogant. But he is such a low-key young man who often does extremely flamboyant things. How long did it take to go to Dali Temple? One mistake and he did something big again! "The Emperor has arrived!" The chief **** sang shrilly. The courtiers who were standing in twos and threes were shocked when they entered the main hall. They immediately took their places and formed two rows in the blink of an eye. Wait for Emperor Ming Cheng to come out and sit on the dragon throne. The courtiers knelt down and saluted, shouting long live. The first thing this morning, Emperor Mingcheng mentioned the turmoil in the city last night. For example, the city is still under martial law and the city gates will be closed for three days. They are doing their best to search and hunt down suspicious persons. When Qin Chi woke up and went to court, he only heard Qin Ba''s words, and now he really knew the follow-up. The incident was a big deal, and Emperor Mingcheng was very angry. Under the emperor''s feet, the underground of the capital was about to be hollowed out by thieves. A large number of unidentified people even sneaked in and a batch of weapons and other contraband were found. No matter how you look at this situation, it looks like someone is about to rebel. How can you allow others to snore on the side of the bed? "Check! Check it out for me. If there is no result within three days, come to see me!" Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty first attacked the military and horse departments of the five cities responsible for public security in the capital. A large number of suspicious people entered the city, but they were unaware of it. Either he was derelict in his duties, or he was someone planted by the other party. Emperor Mingcheng mercilessly beat him to the bottom and put him in jail. Then a group of generals including the city gate guards were held accountable. Qin Chi stood in his position, lowering his eyebrows and keeping his eyes as low as possible, trying to reduce his presence as much as possible. Not only him, but many officials are like this. Emperor Mingcheng was so angry that he had no reason to speak of. If anyone dared to say anything that would offend him, it would be a trivial matter to be implicated, but it would be unjust to lose his life. As the saying goes, the emperor''s wrath will kill millions of people and bleed for thousands of miles. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty was angry in the court today, and everyone had to keep their tails in check, including Qin Chi himself. Therefore, when Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty had finished his attack and asked whether he had anything to report or whether to leave the court, the officials who had written the memorial and were about to hand it over all shrank back one by one. Qin Chi himself hid the memorial silently. Some ministers caught a glimpse of Qin Chi secretly. I happened to see his little actions and had to sigh, this is a character with a bright future. "Retreat!" "Long live my king." In the midst of loud shouts, Emperor Mingcheng waved his sleeves and left. Qin Chi waited for the minister in front to stand up first. He Lianmian, who was standing at the front, glanced at him and hesitated before going over to talk to him. Qin Chi''s attitude was correct, as always. The ministers in front of them were walking out one after another. When they passed by Qin Chi, for some unknown reason, every one of them had to pause in front of him and look at him intentionally or unintentionally. This made Qin Chi, who was originally not very eye-catching, like a lamp lit in the night, extremely conspicuous. Qin Chi fell silent upon seeing this. He suspected that these people did it on purpose, and he had evidence. For example, they all looked at him in unison just now? Xia Wei stepped forward and patted Qin Chi on the shoulder, "Good boy, as expected of you." "Sir, I didn''t do anything." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi looked at Xia Wei with an innocent face, "Why do everyone''s eyes look so wrong?" Xia Wei was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, "That''s right, you didn''t do anything, nothing. Let''s take a walk together." "Then it is better for me to be respectful than to obey my orders." Qin Chi bowed to him in a formal manner. When Xia Wei walked in front, Qin Chi immediately followed, half a step behind according to etiquette. Intentionally or unintentionally, the two of them kept a distance away from the other officials who were leaving the palace. When they spoke, they deliberately lowered their voices so that others could not hear clearly. In fact, Xia Wei was asking Qin Chi for advice. Don''t say that just because you are a minister, you know everything. What Xia Wei is most worried about right now is that the Ministry of Revenue happens to have a sum of money that was obtained from a house ransack. It is this money that everyone is thinking about, and everyone reaches out to ask him for it. Because of these things, he was so worried that his hair turned gray. "Things have their own priorities. You''ve heard about the war in the northwest, right? It''s not necessarily enough to put all the money in the treasury. I know you have many evil ideas. Give me a trick. How can you get money quickly?" Xia Wei looked at Qin Chi expectantly. He is desperate. Qin Chi didn''t expect that he came to her for this matter, "Master Xia thinks too highly of this official. Last time, my wife just helped you by mistake." This means that he didn''t do anything either. Xia Wei didn''t say anything, but his eyes showed disbelief. Qin Chi could only say sternly: "If I go back and think of Zhao''er, I will definitely tell you, and I promise I won''t hide it." "That''s good." Xia Wei patted Qin Chi on the shoulder again, then strode away. Qin Chi watched him go away. This made Li Huarong, who had just taken office and returned to the cabinet as an errand, not sure what to say. In order not to arouse the suspicion of Emperor Mingcheng, he could not get too close to Qin Chi openly. At most, he could only look after Qin Chi behind his back. But he didn''t expect Qin Chi to reveal such a big thing just after the Spring Festival. Don''t look at Ming Emperor Cheng making an attack in the court today. As a cabinet member, he knew more than what was said in court. When Emperor Ming Cheng was in the cabinet, he bluntly told several ministers that what happened last night was related to the sin of the former prince. He asked them to come up with a charter and be sure to bring the former prince to justice. The remaining parties were eradicated. He just secretly asked his confidant to deliver a letter to Qin Chi. Qin Chi opened the letter and read it, feeling enlightened. Then burn the letter. Chapter 361 Let Jianning start an uprising Chapter 361 Let Jianning start an uprising On this day, not only did Emperor Mingcheng lose his temper, but the people on the side of the former prince were even furious. The man wearing a ghost mask tied the failed assassin directly to a stone pillar. He violently beat them with a whip until they were beaten to death, but his mood still did not improve. "Then Qin Qian is not dead." The masked man slammed his whip onto the ground. Mr. Yan lowered his eyelids and said, "I guess his life should not be cut off." "It''s a good life that shouldn''t be cut off!" As the masked man lurked for a long time, his character became more and more violent. "The current situation is becoming more and more unfavorable to us. How is that man?" "Lord, calm down. Emperor Mingcheng won''t be able to hold on for long after taking the rejuvenation." "But there is no news from the palace." "It is estimated that Emperor Mingcheng issued a hush-hush order. When something happened to the Liu family, the Imperial Hospital has asked Emperor Mingcheng to send people to monitor it. It is not easy for outsiders to get some information from inside." Yan Jiangnan regretted the move of the Liu family, which was obviously a success. Excellent, but suddenly things were revealed. In the final analysis, it was due to Emperor Ming Cheng''s gloomy and unstable character. It stands to reason that the government will not raid an official''s home without definite evidence. For example, in the past, Jin Yiwei acted in a domineering manner. First of all, there must be evidence. In the matter of the Liu family, Emperor Mingcheng relied on his private thoughts. There is no evidence, but there is evidence when the house is searched? A normal emperor would never do this kind of thing that turns things upside down. Because doing so is likely to shake the country''s foundation. Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty did this. The masked man walked around in a circle and thought about the chaos in the city again, "How about the people we sneaked into the city?" "We lost a small part, but most people are fine." Mr. Yan is still very capable, and many of the people exposed outside are actually peripheral. The real elite have been preserved. The masked man asked: "How many elites are there in the inner city?" "Five thousand." "Only five thousand?" "The guards in the capital are stricter and not as lax as those in other state capitals." Mr. Yan spent a lot of effort to quietly transfer the people into the inner city. The inner city is closest to the palace, so if you infiltrate five thousand elites, you can do a lot of things. The only thing that made them unhappy was that the secret passage in Dongcheng was discovered. The government is ordering people to dig. If we continue digging like this, we will probably expose thousands of other elites hiding in the secret passage. The masked man suddenly said fiercely: "Let Jianning start a fight!" "My lord, are you too hasty?" "Urgent? I have been waiting for this day for too long, not to mention that it will take some time for the news to reach Jianning. During this time, sir, just plan carefully." "Yes." Yan Jiangnan did not object. After Yan Jiangnan left, the masked man recruited another subordinate and ordered in a sinister tone: "Send people to Huizhou to capture Qin Qi''an''s family, especially his wife and children. I heard that his wife obviously looks very good." Ugly, yet deeply loved by him. If you can''t kill Qin Qi''an, then you can''t kill his wife and children? The man took the order and left. Qin Chi still doesn''t know that there is someone who can''t touch him and is sharpening his knife to swing it at his family. At this time, he was processing official documents in Dali Temple. "Sir, it''s time to go to the office." Lu Baizhou reminded. Qin Chi put down the official documents and asked Lu Baizhou to pack them up. One after another, when the two of them were walking out, Qin Chi stopped and said, "Don''t go with me these days. You can leave by yourself." "What''s the reason?" Lu Baizhou was surprised. Qin Chi reminded: "You should have heard about my assassination. I don''t know if the murderer behind the scenes has given up. If you stay with me, you might be implicated by me." Who dares to say that the person behind it is not a madman? If you can''t kill him, then use the people around him to kill him? Lu Baizhou said he knew. It''s not that he''s worried about being implicated, but it''s easy to follow him. If someone comes to assassinate him, he won''t be able to help, and it might even become a drag, so it''s better to comply with Qin Chi''s words. Qin Chi nodded and walked out of the Dali Temple Yamen first. The carriage to pick him up was waiting outside. The driver was still Old Li Tou. Qin Ba and Lao Huo were guarding the left and right, and today there were eight more guards. It was said that Old Man Hong had temporarily invited them, mainly to protect Qin Chi''s safety. Therefore, it is at the entrance of the government office. Qin Chi was not the only official to leave. This ostentation surpassed that of any official, and even the minister of Dali Temple was not as majestic as him. Someone couldn''t help but said in a strange tone: "Qin Shaoqing is indeed extraordinary. Even his travels are different and unique. We are really far inferior to Qin Shaoqing''s scenery." Qin Chi paused as he got on the carriage. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Looking back, I happened to see the smiling face of Luo Si Cheng, and then saw other officials, who almost subconsciously distanced themselves from Luo Si Cheng. Qin Chi raised his lips and smiled slightly, "Luo Sicheng, do you want to accompany me so that you can experience the scenery of my trip?" Luo Si Cheng''s expression stiffened, "No, no need." "You are not happy when I ask you to take advantage of me. Do you look down on me?" Qin Chi''s smile did not reach his eyes. Luo Si Cheng said dryly: "We are not going along the way." "laugh!" A sneer sounded nearby. Everyone looked there and saw that it was Dong Xingde. Dong Xingde strode out of the yamen, "Master Qin, Luo Sicheng doesn''t dare, but I dare you. I just happen to be traveling with you on the same road. How about a ride?" "what ever." Qin Chi didn''t care anymore. Dong Xingde stepped forward quickly and asked Qin Chi to get in the car first. When Qin Chi got into the carriage, he lifted up his clothes and slid up. Others watched this scene helplessly. Some people wanted to call Dong Xingde flattery, but they seized the opportunity to please their boss. Then some people secretly scolded Luo Sicheng for being useless. This man may say he is timid, because he dares to provoke his boss; say he is brave, because he dare not get on Qin Chi''s carriage. It''s just a useless thing anyway. Qin Chi was assassinated again and again. There are many people in the capital who know about it, and everyone can understand that he hired a nursing home, but if you want to be on good terms with him, you have to think carefully, and at least consider whether the assassination is over. No one can guarantee whether he will be implicated. It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Qin Chi would not have any objection to this, but Dong Xingde actually aroused his interest. In a small car. The two looked at each other and then looked away. Qin Chi smiled and said, "Aren''t you afraid of being implicated by me?" "You are not afraid of your main target, so why should I be afraid of you?" Dong Xingde really didn''t notice. Qin Chi said with a smile and question in his eyes, "You continue." "If an assassin does appear, he will only be watching Master Qin. Who would take the trouble to target an unimportant person like me. Those who are worried about being implicated by you are simply overthinking." Dong Xingde said without concealment. Qin Chi couldn''t help but laugh out loud, "Dong Sicheng is still alive and well." "It''s too praised, it''s too praised!" "Hahaha..." In fact, Qin Chi did not expect that Dong Xingde would change so drastically. It could be called a complete rebirth. Chapter 362 Attacked on the way Chapter 362 Attacked on the way Huizhou Prefecture, Yi County. After the new year, the weather gets warmer. Song Jin began to go to Beijing. I have to take my young son and daughter with me on the road, so I need to prepare a lot of things. Huzi stayed in Huizhou to study with his husband, not to mention that He Lianpu was watching over him, which made Song Jin feel relieved. This time, there was also Saburo. Sanlang took the initiative to go to the capital with Song Jin. When he approached Song Jin, he said, "Sister-in-law, I want to go to the capital while I''m young and gain experience." For such a motivated young man, Song Jin had no reason to dampen his enthusiasm. She went to ask Qin Laoer and Xiao Liu about their intentions that day. Seeing that they had no objection, she agreed. The day of departure. Three carriages came to Qinjiagou. There are two carriages carrying luggage on the road, and there are more people accompanying them than last time. Xiaoyu will follow, she usually takes care of Niuniu''s daily life, and Lou Ruhan will lead the people to follow. In addition, there is also a secret guard accompanying him. This secret guard was placed by Qin Chi next to Song Jin. Song Jin got into the carriage with her child in her arms. Li was still a little worried, "The weather hasn''t completely warmed up yet. Can''t we stay for another half month before leaving?" "Mom, my husband is alone in the capital. He is usually busy with government affairs, and there is no one to take care of him when he comes home. I don''t feel at ease." Song Jin still spoke very thoughtfully. She knew what Li was worried about. As long as Qin Chi is not taken care of, Li will definitely not drag her away. Sure enough, Mrs. Li sighed helplessly, "Okay, okay, have a nice journey." "Okay, mother." Song Jin bowed to Mrs. Li, "Mom and dad should also take care of themselves." Mrs. Li waved her hand, indicating that she understood. Boss Qin stood beside her and smiled naively, "I will take good care of your mother. You don''t have to worry. We will visit Huzi from time to time." "That''s right, after you leave, I will go to the hot spring village in Huangshan to live for a while. You and Dalang can rest assured that we will take care of Hu Zi." Mrs. Li followed up to cover up her reluctance. Through Hu Zi''s relationship, the couple often went to the hot spring village in Huangshan. When they met their eldest grandson, they could also take a look at He Lian Pu, which was much more convenient than before. Niuniu looked at her grandma reluctantly. As a child, I dont know how to say goodbye. She only knew that she was going to find her father with her mother, and she was very happy. Until the carriage left Qinjiagou, the little girl was still excited. She waited on the carriage for a while and then gradually dozed off. After not seeing her grandma for a few days on the road, the little girl started to think about it and asked questions from time to time. Sometimes when she didn''t see her grandma, she felt aggrieved and wanted to cry. Everyone could only coax her. After more times, she gradually got used to it and didn''t ask again. On the road with children, stop and go. Song Jin was lying when she said it was not tiring. Fortunately, she had the foresight to bring Xiaoyu and Mrs. Huang with her. They were very skilled in taking care of the children, and they also had Mu Ting and Qin Qi to help. As for the Li family, Song Jin bought two more servants to serve him. After Yinlong served her during the confinement period, she stayed for another half a month and then returned to the medicine shop. Many things in the pharmacy are inseparable from Yinlong, and her husband used to be in charge. The group had been walking for more than ten days when their youngest son Guaiguai suddenly fell ill. Song Jin was frightened for a moment and hurriedly called Doctor Jing. Doctor Jing came to Huizhou last year, but did not go to the capital with Qin Chi. Instead, he stayed in Qinjiagou. The one who left with Qin Chi was his apprentice, who was accompanying him to take care of Qin Chi''s body. This time Song Jin left, so he followed. "Madam, the child is still young and cannot adapt to the changes in water and soil. He will be raised for a few days." Doctor Jing meant to ask everyone to find a place to rest for a few days. Song Jin agreed and asked Lou Ruhan to find a place to stay. There were no towns before or after this time. Lou Ruhan found a farmhouse in the nearest village to stay. We have enough money to stay here for only five days. There were medicinal materials on the carriage, so there was no need to worry about not being able to buy them, so arrangements were made quickly for them to live in the small courtyard, and the best room naturally went to Song Jin and her children. It''s just a small courtyard and can''t accommodate the accompanying people. Others are staying with others in the village. Or set up a temporary tent and make do for a few days. Lou Ruhan and his accompanying escorts chose to use oilcloth to pitch a tent next to the small courtyard where Song Jin lived. Song Jin stretched out her finger and gently touched the tip of her youngest son''s nose, "You annoying little thing, please get better quickly, mother. If you don''t get better, you''ll be spanked." "Hehe, mother, do you want to spank my brother?" After hearing this, Niu Niu ran over quickly with her short legs, "Let Niu Niu come and help with the beating, okay?" "Pfft." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin laughed and said, "I think you are such a stupid monkey. You don''t want to fight on behalf of my mother, but you want to fight yourself." "No way, it''s Niuniu who wants to help mother." Niu Niu''s big eyes were shining, her face was flushed, and her whole little face was full of expectation. Song Jin couldn''t help but picked her up, then lifted her up high, then held her in his arms and kissed her sweetly, "My precious daughter really thinks about my mother, she is a good child." "Giggle." The little girl giggled shyly. The little son on the side rubbed his little feet and grinned. He didn''t know what he was trying to figure out, and he started laughing. Maybe happiness is contagious. Xiaoyu and the others who came in also showed knowing smiles. The child has a low-grade fever, and the condition comes and goes quickly. On the third day after settling in the village, he was completely healed. According to Doctor Jing''s wishes, he could continue his journey. Song Jin saw Xiaoyu and Mrs. Huang, who were so tired that their eyes were filled with black eyes from taking care of their sick children, so he decided to stay for one more day to let everyone have a good rest. She even took out her money and asked someone to buy some meat and add vegetables. No one else has any objection to this either. Late that night, the quiet village. A small farmhouse with mottled earthen walls. A dozen masked men holding sharp knives came straight to the small courtyard. As they were about to approach the small courtyard, suddenly, a sharp warning whistle broke through the silent night. It was the night watchmen who discovered the enemy attack. After a while, the clang of swords clashing was heard. Lou Ruhan and others stepped forward. A fierce fight began with the invading masked men. There was too much noise outside, which suddenly woke up Song Jin. Song Jin quickly got dressed. First she picked up the quilt, wrapped the familiar **** the bed and held her in her arms. Niuniu next to her was also awakened. "Mother, mother!" Niu Niu was looking for her mother. Song Jin hugged her youngest son with one hand, stretched out her other hand to hold Niu Niu in her arms, patted her back gently, and whispered to comfort, "Mom is here, Niu Niu, don''t be afraid." "Miss." "My boss..." Xiaoyu and Muting were also awakened. After a while, Saburo also ran over with bare feet, putting on his clothes while running. Chapter 363 Blood-stained farmhouse Chapter 363 The blood-stained farmyard Xiaoyu, Mu Ting and others came in. Song Jin felt relieved and let the two of them take care of the child. The man came to the door. He saw Qin Qi guarding the door with a sword. Lou Ruhan and others were originally at a disadvantage. The masked man''s attacks were fierce and methodical, unlike ordinary thieves at all. Fortunately, not long after, a group of secret guards who were also masked joined in, and they quickly killed more than a dozen thieves together. After beheading the thief, the secret guard quickly cleaned up the scene and took the thief''s body with him when he left. Lou Ruhan asked where the secret guard came from. The secret guard didn''t say anything explicitly, he just asked him to protect his masters. The moonlight filtered through the sparse clouds and shone on the blood-stained courtyard. The atmosphere afterwards was quite solemn. Doctor Jing was helping to treat the injured, and Lou Ruhan and his uninjured brother began to fetch water to wash away the blood in the yard. Song Jin stepped out of the house and happened to see this scene. Although the situation was critical, these people still swore to protect their three mothers to the death, which made Song Jin feel a ray of warmth in this anxious and frightened night. "My boss." Lou Ruhan came over. Song Jin looked around, "Are you injured?" "I suffered a little skin injury and it was bandaged. It''s not serious. It''s just that the people who came to help us are..." Lou Ruhan didn''t know that there was a secret guard protecting him. This secret guard is currently under the control of Qin Qilai. Song Jin knew that Lou Ruhan was not an outsider, so he said: "He is one of his own, sent by my husband to protect us." "As long as it''s one of your own." Lou Ruhan finally let go of his hanging heart. Song Jin asked again: "Are there any casualties?" "Back to my boss, one person was seriously injured, seven were slightly injured, and no one died." Lou Ruhan thought that if Qin Chi''s people were any slower in taking action, they would probably suffer casualties. This attack made Lou Ruhan once again feel the gap in combat power, so he decided to train harder in the future and try his best to find ways to improve the brothers'' strength. Song Jin spoke again, "I will do my best to treat the wounded, and I will bear all the expenses. In addition, each of the brothers in the **** agency will receive a reward of one hundred taels of silver, plus an additional twenty taels for those with minor injuries, and another one hundred taels for serious injuries." "I thanked my boss on behalf of my brothers." Lou Ruhan was very happy. He was busy passing the good news to his brothers. The injured person was originally depressed, but as soon as he heard that there was a silver reward, the negative emotions were immediately swept away. Besides, people in the village heard the noise, but no one dared to come out to see what was going on. The sound of fighting told them that thieves had entered the village. Someone went to report it to the village chief. The village chief asked his son to watch secretly. The small farmhouse rented by Song Jin and others was built on the edge of the village. The village chief''s son could only see the light of torches and figures moving around in the distance. He observed it for a long time. Until the sky turns gray and bright. The village chief organized a dozen young adults to come over. Lou Ruhan will handle this matter. Lou Ruhan said that they met a robber and had a fight in the middle of the night. They fought hard to get injured and beat the robber away. "Run away? Didn''t you catch one?" The village chief was an old man, looking at Lou Ruhan with suspicion in his eyes. Lou Ruhan said sincerely: "Everyone really ran away. Seeing that we were outnumbered, the other party retreated without holding on for long. We won''t chase them in the middle of the night." The village chief asked for a while. When he asked, other people also went to poke their heads into the farmyard, including the temporary tent set up by Lou Ruhan and others. They saw that there were indeed eight or nine injured people, but no thieves or corpses. A group of villagers believed Lou Ruhan''s story. When the old village chief learned that no one was killed, he finally let go of his worries. He politely asked Lou Ruhan if he wanted to report to the official. Lou Ruhan said no, saying that they were just passing by and reporting to the official would delay their trip. After Lou Ruhan sent away the villagers, he came back to discuss the follow-up with Song Jin. Lou Ruhan said: "What are the boss''s next plans?" After Song Jin thought deeply, he decided to continue on the road, "It''s not safe here anymore. Those who attacked last night didn''t go back, so they will definitely arrange for more people to investigate. According to the itinerary, the next stop is Huai''an Mansion. We will almost be there in one day''s walk." As long as people arrive in Huai''an Prefecture, it is relatively safer. In Huai''an Prefecture, there are not only branches of the Song family, but also Song Jin''s own power. In addition, they can also turn to Shun''an Trading Company for help. At the same time, injured people can also get better accommodation. Xiao Yufei on the side asked, "My boss, it''s not advisable for injured people to travel. Can''t they be placed in the village to recuperate first?" Not just Xiaoyu. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! My peers and others dont understand either. Song Jin could only explain: "It is indeed a good idea to settle in the village to recuperate, but what about the thieves who attacked last night and their accomplices? If we leave by then, you can imagine what will happen to the people left behind. Know." Hearing this, Xiaoyu and others turned pale. Suddenly I didn''t dare to say anything more. Lou Ruhan added: "My boss is right. Those thieves probably have accomplices. More than a dozen people are missing. Spies will definitely be arranged to investigate. Maybe there are informants outside the village now. We were not found by then, so we stayed here to recuperate. People suffer. It is very possible to be questioned or to vent your anger. No one questions it anymore. The group quickly packed up and set off, even vacating a carriage to accommodate the more seriously injured people. Maybe Song Jin and others were lucky. The journey to Huai''an Mansion was uneventful. Lou Ruhan quickly contacted people in Huai''an Mansion to come over and take care of him. Before dark the next day, the group moved into a house. After placement is complete. Song Jin wrote a letter and sent it to Shun''an Trading Company. He asked the merchant bank to send the letter to the capital as quickly as possible. Let people investigate who attacked them. The secret guard in charge of Qin Qi is already investigating, and the results will be known when they arrive in Huai''an. "The remnants of the former prince?" Song Jin thought it was them again and looked up at Qin Qi, "They suddenly attacked me and my children. Did my husband do something else in the capital?" "Just received the news..." Qin Qi briefly explained what Qin Chi had done in the capital. Song Jin''s face was solemn, "Will Huizhou''s parents take action? According to the ruthless style of these people, it is very likely to happen. Do you want to arrange someone to protect them?" "Madam, the young master has already made arrangements..." Immediately, Qin Qi told Song Jin that there were personnel left in Qinjiagou to protect Li and the others. After Qin Chi entered the court as an official, it didn''t take long for him to realize that something was wrong, so he wrote a letter asking Li and Boss Qin to return to Qinjiagou from Hongcun to live there. There is a training camp hidden in Wuxi Mountain, and manpower can be mobilized at any time. After hearing what Qin Qi said, Song Jin wrote another letter and sent it to Huangshan to Helian Pu, explaining that they were attacked on the way and expressed concern for the safety of his parents-in-law and Hu Zi. With this letter, I believe He Lianpu will understand what to do. Qin Qi arranged for someone to deliver the letter. Chapter 364 Song Dynasty Chapter 364 Song Dashan This time Qin Qi went out. Brought back another person. Qin Qi saluted Song Jin and said, "Madam, when I went to the trading company, I met shopkeeper Tao. He was very worried when he heard that you were attacked and said that he would come to visit you specially." "Where is the person?" Song Jin asked. Qin Qi replied respectfully: "Just wait outside." "Invite him in." Song Jin said. Qin Qi went out in response, and after a while he came back with the slightly fat shopkeeper Tao. Shopkeeper Tao bowed respectfully when he saw Song Jin, "I''ve met Madam." "No need to be polite, shouldn''t you be in the capital at this time? Is there something wrong when you suddenly appear in Huai''an?" Song Jin asked suspiciously. Shopkeeper Tao was frightened when he heard that Song Jinniang and his wife were attacked. He breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that they were fine. Now he felt even more relieved when he saw that Song Jin was unharmed. "Madam, there''s a fight in the northwest." Shopkeeper Tao looked solemn and sad, "In this battle, the Northwest Army suffered a tragic victory. More than 30,000 soldiers were killed and injured. General Ling was preparing food and grass in the capital. The first batch was sent over. It is estimated that it is still on the way now. More follow-up Its not easy to make preparations. The young master asked our business to prepare and buy grain privately and send it to the northwest. At present, the commercial bank is making every effort to mobilize money and prepare grain, grass and medicinal materials. Song Jin asked: "Did things go smoothly on your side?" "There is no problem with the medicinal materials. Brother Xing has left all the medicinal materials for us, but it is not easy to prepare food." Shopkeeper Tao respected Song Jin quite a lot, so when she asked, he explained the problem. The trading house encountered difficulties in preparing grain and grass. When they heard about the war, grain merchants either raised prices or excused themselves by saying there was no extra grain. There are also some grain merchants who not only do not sell grain, but continue to hoard grain at high prices. Natural disasters and wars can easily lead to chaos. Grain prices will definitely rise during this period, and grain merchants will start to wait for the price. Song Jin was helpless about this. You can''t force people to sell food. Immediately, Song Jin asked: "How much food do you still lack? I still have some in my hand." Shopkeeper Tao''s eyes lit up when he heard this, "Young Master said, the more, the better. There is no upper limit. You can pay a higher price if necessary. This is life-saving food." "Okay, I happen to have a big granary here in Huai''an, but there isn''t much new grain in it, most of it is old grain." Shopkeeper Tao was surprised when Song Jin said these words. Shopkeeper Tao asked again: "It doesn''t matter if you have old grains, as long as you can eat them." Song Jin immediately wrote a letter, stamped it with the Song clan seal, and handed the letter to Shopkeeper Tao, "Take this letter and go to the clan leader of the Song clan branch in Huai''an. He will take you to the granary, but I hope that when you move the food, you will leave 10% for the Song family''s emergency support." "Ma''am, you are just." Shopkeeper Tao was excited and grateful. How much grain does a big granary need? Usually it is based on ten thousand stones. Needless to say, it can definitely solve the urgent needs of the northwest. The large granary set up in Huai''an was actually not Song Jin''s own layout, but something that the Song family had already had. The direct descendants paid for it and the side branches were responsible for guarding it. Song Jin also came into contact with the clan members of Wei''an Mansion. The chief of the Huai''an branch told this. Shopkeeper Tao really respects Mrs. Song Jin. When the young master first got married, he was very resentful of Old Qin and decided the young master''s marriage inexplicably. Unfortunately, his son had no choice but to accept the marriage in order to hide his background. In the eyes of shopkeeper Tao, Song Jin is not worthy of Qin Chi. After getting along gradually, Shopkeeper Tao gradually changed his view of Song Jin. In fact, he still felt that Qin Chi had been wronged to some extent. It was only now that Shopkeeper Tao recognized Song Jin. Needless to say, a wife who can often help the Northwest Army has a good character. At least she is better than countless women in terms of justice. Shopkeeper Tao picked up the letter and bowed deeply to Song Jin before leaving. "Tao is here to thank Madam for the soldiers in the northwest." "What are you doing here? I''m just doing my best." Jin waved his hand and motioned for him to go ahead and get busy. Shopkeeper Tao left in a hurry. Qin Qi also bowed deeply to Song Jin before retreating outside the house. It was not that Song Jin had never opened a granary during the disaster relief in Taihu Lake. The grain given to Qin Chi at that time was given by the government at par, not free. At that time it was just a medium-sized granary. Huai''an Prefecture has a large granary, and Song Jin donated 90% to the Northwest Army free of charge. This move is unique among ordinary grain merchants who raise prices. This matter was resolved a few days later. Song Jin took his children and set off secretly to the capital. After they left. A rumor spread in Huai''an, which shocked the entire Huai''an mansion. It was said that the war drums in the northwest were thundering and the sky was full of war. Song Huaijin, a wealthy medicinal merchant, generously donated tens of thousands of dan of grain to support military supplies. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! As soon as the news came out, it was like a spring breeze passing through the wilderness, instantly igniting the enthusiasm of the people in Huai''an, and there was a lot of discussion, and everyone was moved by the righteous deeds of "Song Huaijin, the boss of Jifang". Not many people knew about "Song Huaijin", but they did know about the existence of "Jifang Pharmacy". Jifang Pharmacy has a good reputation in Huai''an. This time it is even better, and even the Song clan members in Huai''an have benefited from being invisible. "Dong Song''s family is really kind-hearted!" "Yes, for being so generous, I''m afraid even the gods would praise you!" "The soldiers in the northwest protect our family and the country, and protect the peace of our side. I heard that Song Dashan did not want to see the soldiers in the northwest go to war hungry." "Oh, think about it. The price of food in the city has been rising day by day. This person is afraid of comparison, and he will be compared to the ground." "You speak too loudly, be careful you won''t be able to buy food in the future." Teahouses and restaurants in Huai''an Prefecture are discussing this matter. Song brocade donation behavior. The subsequent impact is still quite large. For example, the grain merchants in Huai''an have stayed behind closed doors during this period. Otherwise, if everyone pokes you, will you still have the nerve to live? Some grain merchants could only donate a small amount of grain to save face. It didn''t take long for someone else to follow suit. This person donated a sum, which added up to a considerable amount. The donations from these people are sent directly to the government office. Originally, the prefect didn''t know the reason for the rumors when they first started. Later, he sent people to find out. The news came from Shun''an Trading Company and was accidentally spread by some workers who went to carry grain. Facts have proved that Jifang''s boss indeed donated tens of thousands of dan of food and asked Shun''an Merchant Bank to transport it to the Northwest Army. The prefect then approached Shopkeeper Tao. Before Shopkeeper Tao set out, Qin Chi asked Shopkeeper Tao to buy enough grain as soon as possible and transport it to the northwest at any cost. It seems that shopkeeper Tao is still a good person. When the magistrate of Huai''an Prefecture came to visit him, shopkeeper Tao treated him with courtesy, and they hit it off immediately after the discussion. Shun''an Trading Company came to transport the grain, and the prefect took the lead in handling the donation. There was no reason why the prefect should not allow this opportunity to gain a good reputation and increase political achievements. Immediately ask everyone in the yamen to cooperate with Shopkeeper Tao. The prefect of Huai''an did not deduct or scrape a layer of oil and water. At the same time, he did not allow anyone else in the yamen to reach out, and repeatedly warned that anyone who dared to reach out would be dealt with. This is his chance to get promoted and make a fortune. Anyone who dares to block his official career will die! Chapter 365 Commendation Chapter 365 Commendation In Song Jin and others, they had not yet arrived in the capital. The memorial from the prefect of Huai''an has arrived in the capital, and Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty specifically told the matter in the court. In the past, the ministers in the court would not pay attention to who "Song Huaijin" was, and an insignificant businessman could not catch their eyes. But just such a person suddenly donated tens of thousands of dan of grain to support the northwest war, which attracted grain merchants in Huai''an to follow suit. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty was very happy. The magistrate of Huai''an will be promoted immediately and will be transferred back to the capital to serve. When it came time to reward Jifang and Shun''an, people in the court were divided for a while. Their righteous deeds were very popular, but it seemed inappropriate to reward them with anything. If they rewarded them too much, they would worry that others would imitate them later, while if they rewarded them lightly, they would undermine the power of God. Suddenly, Emperor Mingcheng said: "Why don''t Qin Shaoqing tell me how to reward him appropriately?" Qin Chi, who was named, stood up. Shun''an Trading Company belongs to him, and Jifang belongs to his wife. If the reward is to be heavy, and the owner behind it is exposed in the future, others will inevitably have to talk about it. "I think it doesn''t matter if you give me gold and silver treasures. Any common objects are not as valuable as your majesty''s calligraphy. Your majesty can give each family an inscription. They will definitely cherish it and make a horizontal plaque of your calligraphy. Go to the shop for the world to admire..." Qin Chi continued to suggest with sincerity, "This move not only demonstrates His Majesty''s kindness and majesty, but also indirectly gives protection to the two families. The more benevolent merchants and righteous businessmen like Jifang and Shun''an, the more the better in our Daxia Dynasty. When other businessmen see it, they will probably follow suit. If things go on like this, why should Daxia be unhappy? " No one can refute this. The reason is that Emperor Mingcheng thought it made sense. You can achieve your goals without spending any money, the best of both worlds. Xia Wei, who is the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, has no objection, because he does not need to spend money from the treasury and allows two merchants to receive awards. The biggest winner in this matter in Huai''an is the prefect of Huai''an. Song Jin has not yet received news about what happened in the capital. Starting from Huai''an, not only did the number of protection personnel increase, but Shopkeeper Tao also asked a caravan to accompany him. Escort Song Jinniang and the others to the capital. There were people watching their team along the way. Several waves of people with evil intentions were intercepted by secret guards before they even got close, and they were not even qualified to show up in front of Song Jin. Song Jin also heard Qin Qi''s report afterwards. The person responsible for catching Song Jin became furious. Near the inn station near the capital. There is a group of people hiding in a mountain forest. The person in charge said angrily: "If we can''t complete the task, what will happen to us? You must know in your hearts that the superiors will not give us a chance to fail." The twenty-odd people present all lowered their heads. They know very well that if they fail to complete the task, they will die. The person in charge said: "The other party will enter the city tomorrow afternoon. This is our last chance to survive." "Boss, I understand." "Swear to the death to complete the mission." "I also made an appointment with Xiaotao from Yihongyuan. When I go back, I will continue to occupy her place. I don''t want to die." "Death is imminent, and you are still thinking about women?" "You don''t care? No, you love money, but what are you doing with so much money? You haven''t spent all the money after you die?" As soon as this person said this, the other person became angry. When they saw the two, they were about to fight. The leader shouted angrily, "Everyone, please be quiet!" A group of people suddenly fell silent. The leader asked again: "Do you have any ideas?" "Boss, if I don''t have the ambition of others, the number of people escorting those three ladies is five times larger than ours. Even if we risk our lives, we won''t be able to complete the mission." One of them said sadly and angrily. No one disputed their words. Everyone knows very well how many people have been lost during this period. One failure can be said to be a fluke, but the second, third and fourth time are not. There were more people escorting Qin Qi''an''s wife and children than what was revealed on the surface. He just couldn''t allow them to back down, so if he went back to resume his life, he would end up being beaten to death by his master. If you run away, you may be able to live for two or three more months, but if you cannot get the antidote, you will eventually die from the poison. The future is a road of no return for them. The leader said solemnly: "There is no perfect path, let''s discuss a solution later." "There are ways, but they are relatively harmful..." The next day, it was early in the morning. The group set off on their way and expected to arrive in the capital in the afternoon. Qin Qi and Lou Ruhan did not relax their vigilance. They were intercepted and killed on the way, and there were no casualties among them. Only they knew the danger. For this reason, Song Jin, with his two children, would never leave the team without authorization. "Mom, can I see my father tomorrow?" In the carriage, Niu Niu leaned in Song Jin''s arms, blinking her **** eyes, and asked in a soft voice. Song Jin nodded, "Yes, are you happy?" "happy." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The child''s clear little voice makes people feel better inexplicably, "I want daddy to buy me candies." "Little greedy cat, do you usually lack sweets, mother?" "But my mother only gives me a small piece each time, which is not enough for Niuniu to eat." "Grandpa Jing didn''t allow it. He said your little teeth would grow bugs if you ate too much sugar." Song Jin reached out and tapped the tip of her nose. Niu Niu pouted her lips and looked at her sideways. Then turn away your little face and refuse to listen. This little look is particularly cute. Song Jin was overjoyed, "Oh, Niuniu is unhappy? Didn''t you just say you were happy to see your father?" "I''m just going to be angry for a little while, and I''ll be happy later." "Hahaha" Song Jin made her daughter laugh again with her childish words. Children may not necessarily understand the meaning of adults'' words, but sometimes they can be keenly aware of what adults want to hear, and subconsciously want to please adults. "Hush!" The carriage traveling forward suddenly slowed down and then stopped. There was a noise ahead. Song Jin opened the car curtain and asked, "What happened in front?" "Back to my employer, Sister Muting went to the front to inquire." It was Xiaoyu who answered. After a while, Mu Ting still didn''t come back. On the contrary, it was Sanlang who ran over first and panted slightly: "Sister-in-law, there was a group of villagers blocking the way ahead, and there was a conflict with the caravan people, and a life was involved. The official mission was also strange. It came very quickly. It seemed like there was something wrong at first glance. Tricky." Song Jin''s heart skipped a beat when he heard this, "That''s quite a coincidence." "Yes, what a coincidence." Saburo has really gained a lot of experience along the way. I was still fresh at first, but then I witnessed the **** massacre in the farmyard with my own eyes, and I became completely silent. Later, I learned boxing and kicking skills from Lou Ruhan and chatted with people in the caravan. Gradually, I got rid of the shadow of that night and regained my cheerful temperament. Song Jin has not yet reacted. Qin Qi led more than ten people and took the lead in guarding the carriage. Lou Ruhan and others gathered towards the carriage, including most of the escorts in Shun''an. The spies not far away watched secretly. When he saw this situation, he was so angry that he almost broke his silver teeth. This gives no chance for a sneak attack at all! Chapter 366 Evil people stand in the way Chapter 366: Evil people block the way Officials were here, and another murder occurred. The caravan originally wanted to leave a small number of people to take charge of this matter, while the others continued on their way, but a group of villagers blocking the way refused to let them go. "Madam, what should I do?" Qin Qi asked Song Jin in a low voice, "The deceased was still alive. His death had nothing to do with the caravan, but the people who stood in the way insisted that the caravan killed him." "Obviously framed?" This technique is crude unless otherwise intended. Qin Qi added: "Lou Ruhan said that he suspected that Guanzhu was pretending, and he was asking people to test him." Song Jin asked: "Are they coming for me again? I don''t know what traps are waiting ahead." "These people are determined not to give up until they reach the Yellow River. They are really difficult to deal with." Qin Qi felt solemn. It''s not easy to get here. Just as he was about to reach the capital, something happened here again. Qin Qi looked around and said, "Madam, there is no village in front of here and no store in back. If you don''t enter the city before dark, you will have to sleep in the countryside at night." "I understand." Song Jin''s face was condensed. Waited a while longer. Lou Ruhan came over and brought some bad news. The official is a real official. It is said that he came here specifically to stay after receiving a report. Song Jin said: "How to say?" "The official said he was only responsible for arresting people, and it was the county magistrate''s responsibility to judge the case." This statement sounds reasonable at first, but it cannot stand up to scrutiny. Song Jin immediately made a decision: "We, a group of people, will go ahead and enter the city before dark. If we don''t enter the city today, we will be in constant fear the next day." Today''s case is not difficult to investigate. The opponent''s plan is full of flaws, and the caravan can find out by going to the Yamen. Lou Ruhan led people forward to clear the way. When the official was about to ask, Lou Ruhan directly reported his name, "We are escorting the family members of Qin Shaoqing of Dali Temple to Beijing, and we happen to be passing through here. Can you please make way? If we continue to delay like this, we may not be able to enter the city in time before the city gate closes." " Officials'' families passed by. There is no reason for these people to be in the way. Normally, common people and officials will be afraid of noble people. However, it is not normal for these people to appear here today. A man among the villagers stood up, pointed at the people who had been wrongly accused of killing people, and asked angrily, "Aren''t you with the murderer? How can you let them leave?" Lou Ruhan looked at the man with sharp eyes. No matter how disguised the man was, Lou Ruhan still recognized something was wrong at a glance, and immediately said: "Catch him!" "yes!" The brother next to him responded loudly and captured the man without hesitation. The man wanted to resist, but he restrained himself in the middle. The two men held him captive, shouting like ordinary villagers in a panic, "What are you going to do? Are you going to frame good people? Or do you want to kill people and silence them? Come on, come on. Man, the murderer is going to kill someone and silence him." The villagers on the side wanted to help. And timid. When they hesitated, the man had been **** by Lou Ruhan''s people, and Saburo ran to search him. A money bag, a dagger, several concealed weapons and a wooden token were found. Without waiting for the man to defend himself, Saburo said loudly: "You guys, this man actually has a dagger and a hidden weapon hidden on his body. It''s really suspicious. He can''t be a bandit pretending to be a bandit." Lou Ruhan secretly praised Sanlang''s cleverness and immediately agreed: "Yes, if I remember correctly, the nearby villages are at least ten miles away from here. Would normal villagers come here to block the road?" Several officials looked at each other. One of them looked at the tied man with a stern look, and then quickly avoided it. The faces of these villagers were sad, and most of them were sallow and thin. Some of them were holding hoes and other objects in their hands, their eyes evasive, and they were obviously afraid and refused to give way. There was an old man''s body in the middle of the official road. He just died not long ago. Lou Ruhan handed the tied people over to an official, "Master, it is a great achievement to capture these bandits back to the Yamen." "We are not bandits! We are good people, good people!" a villager said loudly with a stern expression. One person shouted, and the others followed suit, as if this would make them bolder. Lou Ruhan shouted: "Give way!" "No! No, you are in the same group!" Some villagers shouted tremblingly, their eyes were red, their feet were shaking, and they kept holding up the hoe. Lou Ruhan did not expect that the villagers would still refuse to leave after being exposed. Song Jin, who was paying attention to the movements here, also noticed something unusual. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Sanlang approached Song Jin and asked in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, those villagers are obviously afraid of us, why don''t you get out of the way?" "Either it''s profitable, or it''s threatened. There''s a reason why we have to stay here." Song Jin thought about the possibilities behind it. It will be very detrimental to them if they continue to dilly-dally like this. If you stay in the countryside at night, a lot of things may happen. Song Jin suddenly ordered: "Ah Qi, take advantage of them when they are not prepared, knock them unconscious and tie them up, as long as no one is killed. Remember to search them carefully and don''t give them a chance to kill themselves. Also, pay attention to those few Officials may have their accomplices among them. "yes!" Qin Qi immediately responded. Immediately she led people over quietly. Half an hour later, people were lying on the ground on the official road. Everyone began to search him skillfully. Small packets of poison were found on the villagers. Sanlang almost scolded his mother when he saw it, "Who is so vicious that he plans to use his life to frame us?" "Collect the things here. Fortunately, our boss asked us to start first, otherwise they will be in big trouble when they take care of themselves." Lou Ruhan placed the collected things one by one in front of several bound officials. "A few of you and the villagers are A group of people, here to blackmail people?" "No we don''t, we''re not." No matter how stupid the officer leading the team was, he still noticed something was wrong. Lou Ruhan asked: "How did you know that there would be a murder here?" "That''s what he said." The officers all pointed at the colleague with a sly look on their side. The officer who was pointed out felt guilty and defended, "I also heard someone come to report the crime! I was also deceived..." Lou Ruhan searched the officer without saying a word. He just discovered that this man and the shouting man were flirting with each other. At first glance, they were not good friends. After a body search, no poison was found, but a banknote worth one hundred taels was found. Lou Ruhan asked angrily: "Is a servant so rich?" "No, no money." The officer leading the team smiled bitterly and said, "Young hero, I hope you can be a little more generous. When we get to the Yamen, I will report the truth to you." "It''s easy to talk about." Lou Ruhan responded a few words while untying him, "You can live a comfortable life, and no one wants to ask for trouble, right?" "Which is which." Officials responded one after another. Chapter 367 rest in place Chapter 367 Rest in place Lou Ruhan returned to the carriage and reported clearly what had happened before leaving it to Song Jin to make a decision. Song Jin didn''t know what kind of trap the people behind him wanted to set, but he couldn''t stay here. He could only take one step at a time, tie up all the villagers, and then arrange for some people to help send them to the government. Then continue on your way. The spy on the other side reported the situation. The person in charge looked extremely ugly, "That''s it? This is far from what we expected. It didn''t delay much, and it didn''t force the other party to change its route." Someone tentatively asked: "Boss, have they seen through our plan?" "Impossible!" the leader denied. It can''t be that someone predicted this. No one spoke now. After being silent for a long time, the leader said harshly: "Except for the children under seven years old, drive everyone to the official road. Tell the villagers that their relatives have been killed by the other party before. As long as they delay for half a day, or Only by forcing the other party to take a smaller path will we let them and their children go. More than twenty people controlled the people in a village, killing those who dared to resist on the spot, and then threatened the villagers with their families to stop Song Jin and others. When one plan fails, another one comes up. These thieves didn''t take the lives of the villagers seriously. As a result, Song Jin''s motorcade stopped after walking a short distance. Not long after, Lou Ruhan came to report to Song Jin: "My boss, there is a big tree blocking the road half a mile away, and there is a group of villagers blocking the road, including men, women, old and weak, women and children." "Again?" Song Jin''s eyebrows furrowed slightly, "Why are you delaying so much?" Lou Ruhan doesnt know this either. Song Jin asked again: "Is this the only way?" Lou Ruhan said: "I asked before that there is a trail that can go around here, but the road conditions are not very good and there are mostly mountain roads." "Forget it, don''t take the trail." If you encounter these things when walking on the main road in broad daylight, how can you be safe if you switch to a small road? Song Jin only thought about it for a moment, then gave up the idea of ??changing the route, and asked people to go ahead to negotiate with the villagers. As expected, the negotiations failed. These villagers were different from the previous group. They were very hostile to them and would hit people with stones whenever they met. The scene was chaotic for a time! "Madam, these villagers are crazy!" Mu Ting came back angrily after visiting. Song Jin pursed her lips and said nothing. Niuniu on the side hugged her arm and wouldn''t let go. Xiaoyu hugged the child and said nothing. Song Jin knew that there was someone behind the villagers'' actions. Qin Qi suggested: "I will lead people around. As long as the mastermind behind it is killed, these villagers will not have anything to worry about." "I don''t agree." Lou Ruhan was the first to object, speaking quickly but clearly, "Your method is good, but it will distract our strength. First of all, we don''t know how many enemies there are and how many people should be brought to solve the problem. There are too few people to bring. No doubt you are going to kill someone. The most important thing is that no one can afford the consequences if something happens here while you are leaving." Qin Qi''s suggestion is indeed a good idea. But Lou Ruhan''s fear is not without reason. Saburo said weakly from the side: "Let''s just knock out the villagers in front and throw them to the roadside as we did before. By the time they wake up, we will have already passed." "If only it were that simple." What Song Jin is worried about is that others are inviting you into the urn. Because he knew very well that the other party was looking down upon human life, Song Jin resorted to this weapon. Qin Chi is an official in the DPRK and has attracted much attention. If things here are not handled well, it may affect Qin Chi''s official career. In Song Jin''s heart, Qin Chi''s jade was nothing but rubble. If she touches the rubble with jade, she feels she is at a loss. Therefore, she didn''t want others to have a chance to throw dirty water on Qin Chi. Killing villagers and putting the blame on them, it''s not like the enemy behind them can''t be found... Song Jin said indifferently: "Let me rest where I am." "Huh?" "Huh? This is..." Lou Ruhan, Qin Qi and others were stunned. Sanlang sat quietly in the car. Hearing his sister-in-law''s sudden decision, he was also stunned for a long time, "Sister-in-law, are we not on our way?" "Wait, wait for the opportunity." Song Jin''s tone was calm and reassuring, "Let the carriage pull over first and don''t block it in the middle of the road." A few people were arguing just now, but once Song Jin gave the order, no one raised any questions and all followed her instructions. A situation occurred in official circles. A large group of villagers blocked the official road, seven or eight feet away from a motorcade, with a big tree in the middle. This is how the two parties spent their time. It''s like seeing who can outlast whom. Not far behind the villagers. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! More than twenty people were lying in ambush on a hilltop not far away. The leader stared at the official road. A **** next to him said: "Boss, what should we do about this situation?" "Isn''t it great?" The leader said viciously, "Just wait until our reinforcements arrive. In order to ask brothers for help, I gave away all my wealth." Nothing can be accomplished with people like them. You can only pay money to hire someone to help. The letter was sent, but the person has not arrived yet. They chose this location to hide because the terrain here is high and the grass in front is dense but not high. Anyone who approaches can spot it immediately, and they can easily see the situation on the official road. Suddenly, a thief pointed in the distance, "Head, look! What is that?" "Is someone coming?" A man looked up. The leader had a sullen face. This is an official road, so naturally Song Jin and others are not the only ones walking there. The last time they were blocked, it was Song Jin who made a quick move and the convoy continued to move forward without anyone behind it catching up. This time the convoy didn''t move. Being blocked here, it''s not surprising that the people behind him show up. Song Jin also deliberately asked the driver to drive the carriage to the side of the road to make way for people behind him to pass the vehicle. In fact, standing on a high place, looking over here from a distance. At one end were villagers blocking the way, in the middle was a caravan parked, and halfway away was Song Jin''s carriage. People who don''t understand will think that these are three groups of people. Under such circumstances, whoever wants to throw dirty water on Song Jin, or kill someone like before, would not be able to pin it on Song Jin''s head. Disputes with the villagers are always dealt with by the Shun''an Caravan. The people behind were either riding horses or riding carriages. The riders on the horses seemed to be guards, and they all had swords on their waists. The carriage looked very fine from the outside. Those who could afford such a carriage were either rich or noble. Song Jin lifted the curtain and took a look, "We are very lucky." "What luck?" Sanlang didn''t quite understand, so he looked behind him and said, "Here comes someone. Hehe, I understand. Is this what my sister-in-law is waiting for? As long as there are others present, there will be witnesses to whatever you do." "Yes, Saburo''s mind works really fast." Song Jin praised with a smile. Chapter 368 solve Chapter 368 Solution As soon as Song Jin''s words came out. Qin Qi and Lou Ruhan immediately understood. In fact, if Song Jin was more ruthless, he could have let the Shun''an caravan take the lead, and Shun''an would solve the subsequent troubles. However, Qin Chi was behind the Shun''an caravan, so Song Jin always had to think more about this. Song Jin lowered the car curtains and said to Qin Qi and Lou Ruhan who were standing outside the car: "When someone comes to inquire about the situation, just tell the truth." To be honest, this is very spiritual. Qin Qi and Lou Ruhan looked at each other. Then he passed on Song Jin''s instructions. When the passers-by who had just arrived behind noticed the abnormality in front of them, they stopped a few feet away. One of the guards leading the way rode over. The guard dismounted and raised his hand to salute, "I am the guard of Wubohou Mansion. I am escorting the old lady back to Beijing for a visit. I wonder why you are stopping here?" "Hello, brother, there is nothing we can do. There is a group of villagers in front of us blocking the way. This is the second wave we have encountered today. The previous wave was taken away by officials and sent to the Yamen. Alas..." Lou Ruhan entered Chat with the guard beforehand. The situation was explained in a few moments. Of course, there was someone plotting against Song Jin behind his back, but Lou Ruhan did not expose it. It''s just that the people in the aisle are experiencing unreasonable disasters. The guard went back after asking. Song Jin heard about Wu Bo Hou''s mansion and asked, "What''s going on in this Hou''s mansion?" "It''s the Wu family." Qin Qi recalled the things about Wu Bohou Mansion in his mind, "The first generation of the Wu family was the founding father, but one generation is not as good as the other. Nowadays, there is no promising son, and it is about to decline." Song Jin was not impressed after hearing this. Song Jin knew everything about the dignitaries in the capital, but he really had no memory of the Wu Bohou Mansion. Qin Qi added: "In addition to the name of the Hou Mansion, his family has the name of the Hou Mansion. In the house, the old Marquis has taken a casual position. When the old Master dies, the name of the Hou Mansion will be gone. However, the Wu family has a daughter who is married It was given to Mr. Yan, the current president of the Hanlin Academy. "Lord Yan Xianqing?" Song Jin thought that this person was one of Qin Chi''s immediate bosses. Qin Qi glanced back, "Does Madam intend to let them come forward?" "That''s not necessary." Song Jin did not think that they would not contribute, so he asked Lou Ruhan and the person in charge of the caravan on Mingming to bring the guards of Wu Bohou Mansion to work together to deal with the villagers blocking the road. There is no need for Song Jin to come forward next. Song Jin was in the carriage with his son and daughter. Qin Qi and others continued to guard around the carriage to prevent anyone from finding an opportunity to approach the carriage. Niu Niu was in a daze, and she was already a bit like a governor, "Mother, have we met a bad person?" "Yes, but Niuniu, don''t be afraid. Sister Ah Qi and the others are protecting us." Song Jin hugged Niuniu and coaxed her softly. Niuniu tilted her little head, "I''m not afraid." "Are you really not afraid?" Song Jin raised her lips and smiled. Niu Niu held her pink fist and said firmly: "Don''t be afraid! As long as my mother is here, Niu Niu is not afraid. When Niu Niu grows up, she will also protect her mother and beat up bad guys." "Ha, you''re such a sweet talker." Song Jin stretched out his index finger and lightly scratched the tip of her small nose. Then, she winked at Xiaoyu, raised her arms without leaving a trace, and covered Niu Niu''s ears with her sleeves. Seeing this, Xiaoyu also pulled the quilt, using the quilt to block the obedient little ears in her arms. Not for a moment. There was a noise up front, a group of villagers shouting and killing, and it took half an hour to subside. Soon, the road ahead was cleared. The carriage that had stopped for a long time set off again. The carriage slowly passed the road where the fight was taking place. Song Jin smelled blood. Song Jin did not ask whether anyone died among them, but it was certain that someone was injured and bleeding, and from time to time, painful groans were heard on the roadside. The guards of Wu Bohou Mansion captured several villagers for interrogation. When asked, it turned out that a group of vicious masked men had captured all the people in their village and forced them to come here to cause trouble. The villagers were originally threatened, but after learning that their previous relatives were not dead and had just been taken to the government office, it didn''t take long for them to reveal everything. Some villagers in turn asked them to help save people because their children were still in the hands of the masked men. This matter is difficult to comment on. Song Jin knew what happened and felt very complicated, "Qin Qi, go deal with those people." "yes!" Through the mouths of the villagers, the situation of the perpetrators was already known. Moreover, when the secret guard was inspecting the surroundings, he had already noticed something unusual on the hill in front of him. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! A group of secret guards dressed as escorts rushed straight up a mountaintop like an arrow from a string. Suddenly, someone from above threw smoke down. The secret guards are not unfamiliar with this situation. They will arrange this situation in their daily training, so they can deal with it easily. What''s more, they are divided into two groups, one in the dark and one in the light, and they act in coordination. When I heard the sound of fierce fighting coming from the mountain. The people in Wu Bohou Mansion were shocked. Only then did they realize that there was something hidden here? Mrs. Wu, who was in the carriage behind, heard this and said, "No wonder Mrs. Qin stopped the carriage. It turns out that someone is going to do something bad to them." The confidant next to her asked, "Don''t you think Mrs. Qin is taking advantage of you?" "We can only blame it on our bad luck, we happened to bump into each other." Mrs. Wu replied with a dark face. Anyone who gets involved in such things for no reason will not be in a good mood. But if they were asked to blame Song Jin, the reason was untenable. They had no choice but to endure this dumb loss. At this time, a steward from outside came over to report, "Old madam, just now Madam Qin''s maid sent a thousand taels of silver, saying it was money to treat the guards of the Marquis Mansion to drinks." "Take it." Mrs. Wu couldn''t say anything now. How about the fight on the mountain? There was smoke and smoke, and people on the official road couldn''t see clearly. They could only see figures flashing from time to time, or someone escaped and was killed again. Wait for the smoke to clear. The fighting also stopped. The enemy thought the smoke was useful, but it actually had little effect. First, it is at a high position and the wind is strong. The second is that Song Jin''s secret guards have been trained rigorously since childhood, and their bodies have a certain resistance to intoxicating drugs. However, intoxicated smoke does not make you fall down when you smell it. Even if you accidentally inhale a few puffs, the effect of the drug must be exerted to a certain extent. time. The so-called mist that makes you fall down when you smell it only exists in story books and has not yet appeared in reality. After cleaning the scene. Another head count. "Five people escaped, and the others were either killed or committed suicide by taking poison." Qin Qi came over to report. After hearing this, Song Jin ordered again: "Take the body and send it to the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, and then tell Master Yin what happened to us." "Yes, my subordinate will do it now." Qin Qi went to inform him of the matter. No outsider can destroy the corpse and eliminate all traces. Now that people from Wu Bohou Mansion are present, things must be done in a systematic way. When ordinary people encounter this kind of thing, it is the right way to go to the Yamen and report it to the officials. Chapter 369 Entering the city Chapter 369 Entering the City The convoy wasted a lot of time on the road. Hurry up and hurry up, it''s still a step too late. Before the group reached the city gate, the city gate was already closed. "My boss, I still haven''t caught up." Mu Ting said regretfully. Song Jin raised the curtains of the car at this time and looked at the closed city gate in front of him. He felt helpless and said, "I feel sorry for everyone to find a place to rest until we enter the city early tomorrow morning." Camping outside the city gate. I can only hope that God will not rain. The carriage of Wu Bohou Mansion that was traveling with them changed direction and said it was going to Zhuangzi in the suburbs. They also sent someone to inquire about Song Jin and invited Song Jin to go to Zhuangzi with them. When Song Jin was hesitating, he suddenly saw that the originally closed city gate gradually opened a crack. "Huh?" Song Jin was surprised. Saburo even jumped up, "Wow, the city gate is open!" His voice was not concealed, and everyone around him heard it. Many people looked at the city gate and speculated why the city gate suddenly opened again. Soon they knew the reason. A carriage appeared in the city. A lighting lantern was hung in front of the car. The light was not bright, but it clearly illuminated the driver and the people sitting on the shaft. The person driving the car was Lao Li Tou, and the person sitting on the shaft was Qin Ba. The guards surrounding them on horseback made Song Jin and others feel unfamiliar. The carriage stopped next to Song Jin''s car. Qin Ba lifted the car curtain and bent down to walk out. The person who came was handsome and tall, with delicate eyebrows, cold white complexion, and a strong scholarly aura. Perhaps he came in a hurry. He was still wearing the official uniform of the Shaoqing of Dali Temple. "Madam, I am here to take you home." Qin Chi came to stand in front of Song Jin. Song Jin did not expect to see him at the city gate and did not react for a moment. Qin Chi came forward and hugged her gently, then quickly let go of her reservedly. After this, Song Jin finally came back to her senses. "My husband is here to pick me up and my child." Song Jin''s eyebrows were gentle, and there was a warm light in her eyes when she looked at him. She felt like something was filling her heart. The warm and swollen feeling was the illusion that her life was no longer empty. When Qin Chi heard about the child, his expression froze slightly, but soon returned to his natural state, lowering his head and helping Song Jin get into the carriage. The space in the carriage is much larger than that of an ordinary carriage, but after Qin Chi came in, it still felt a little more crowded. And Xiaoyu had already retreated. Only a family of four was left. Song Jin and Qin Chi looked at each other and moved away silently. Even though there are thousands of words in my heart, this is not the time to talk. Song Jin lowered his head and pretended to tease the little son in his arms. Qin Chi picked up Niu Niu and sat on his lap. Niu Niu was very well-behaved and was looking at him with wide eyes. The little girl has an impression of her father, with admiration and curiosity, but she cannot be said to be familiar with him. So he was very obedient sitting on Qin Chi''s lap. The carriage entered the city slowly. There are no obstacles along the way. The people from Wu Bohou''s mansion were originally going to Zhuangzi in the suburbs. When leaving, Mrs. Wu, out of politeness, asked someone to invite Song Jin. She happened to not leave, so she followed him into the city. After the group entered the city, the city gate slowly closed again. After entering the city, they separated. One group of people took the body to the Yamen to report to the official, and the other group of people went to the trading house to settle down. The direction of Wu Bohou Mansion is also different. Back to Cuihua Hutong. Chef Feng and Mrs. Pan have already boiled hot water. The two children were temporarily handed over to the servants. The first thing Song Jin came back was to take a bath and put on clean clothes. Then he sat down and ate the food sent from the kitchen. Qin Chi accompanied Song Jin to dine. When she put down her bowls and chopsticks when she was full, he said apologetically: "I have heard about what happened on the way. I''m sorry that I couldn''t pick you up and the child earlier." Today Qin Chi was dealing with a difficult matter at the Yamen. When he returned home exhausted, he received the news from Song Jin and the others a little late. He hurried to the city gate, but when the city gate was closed again, it was better for him to persuade the general who guarded the city gate to give him a favor. Open the city gate for a quarter of an hour and let people into the city. Otherwise, Song Jin and others would have to spend the whole night blowing in the cold wind outside the city. It''s okay for adults, but children can''t stand it. Qin Chi didn''t know at this time that his wife and children might not be able to blow the cold wind, and they could also owe the Wu family a favor and stay in their village for one night. Qin Chi closed the distance between himself and Song Jin and hugged her gently. He was glad that the people who arranged to protect her and the child were in place and did not let anyone with ulterior motives succeed. "Madam, thank you for your hard work along the way." "It''s not hard, thanks to my husband for protecting me and my children." Song Jin knew that she wanted to reach the capital safely, but she couldn''t do it with the manpower she had. Without Qin Chi''s prior arrangements, there was no telling what would happen on the way. The consequences were really unimaginable, "I didn''t expect those people to be so frantic. The end justifies the means. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Everyone in the village was implicated. But even though those villagers were pitiful, Song Jin couldn''t sympathize with them. The victim becomes the perpetrator. The five people who escaped were still chased by the Qin family''s secret guards. In the process, they also rescued the children who were locked up in one place, and killed the thieves who were guarding the children. Song Jin does not need to handle these follow-up matters, as his subordinates can handle them well. Qin Chi gently stroked the hair on Song Jin''s back, and the soft touch made his heart soften. "Are you tired, madam? Do you want to go to bed early and rest?" "The child hasn''t been fed yet." Song Jin was thinking about his youngest son. Qin Chi smiled and coaxed in a low voice: "Someone is taking care of him, and he is not short of food. I knew he was coming, so I asked someone to find a milk-producing sheep in advance." All children from wealthy families have wet nurses. The twins were born, but because they didn''t want to be exposed in the countryside, they didn''t hire a nanny. The two children were strong just by drinking goat''s milk. Qin Chi simply didn''t think about hiring someone to take care of them at home. Song Jin was still worried and went to take a look next door. The two children had already fallen asleep. Xiaoyu and Mrs. Huang are taking care of it. Listening to Mrs. Huang''s advice, the younger son had already drank more than half a bowl of boiled goat''s milk before going to bed, and Song Jin went back to the dormitory. Qin Chi has already changed into his inner clothes. He looked like he wanted to take a rest as soon as possible. When Song Jin met his smiling eyes, her cheeks felt slightly warm for no reason, but she still took off her coat and got into the quilt. Immediately, a big hand stretched out and pulled her into a broad and warm embrace. A short separation is better than a newlywed, and there is no doubt about love. The two were so tired that they rested until midnight. As expected, Song Jin got up late the next day. Qin Chi was no longer in the dormitory, and the bed beside him was cold. Song Jin thought he had gone to the Yamen. In fact, Qin Chi asked for leave today and went to Jingzhao Mansion early to chat with Mr. Fu Yin and urge the Yamen to track down the real culprit behind the scenes. This is just a formality. Qin Chi knew very well that the Yamen could not find any clues. Chapter 370 A little farewell is better than a newlywed Chapter 370: A Little Goodbye Is Better than a New Marriage When Qin Chi returned home, Song Jin was still asleep. He went to the study again and was currently reading a letter, which was the "suicide note" of Mr. Yang Ge that Song Jin had brought from Huizhou. In Qin Chi''s view, this suicide note was almost certain that the former prince had escaped death. The masked man they saw earlier was most likely the former Crown Prince He Liankai. Now this man was targeting him. It was probably because he had disturbed He Lian Kai''s affairs many times. No, He Liankai targeted him. Before he interfered with the other party''s good deeds, the other party attacked his wife when he first became the number one scholar. On the day of the number one scholar''s parade, a group of gangsters targeted Song Jin and planned to kill Song Jin. It was He Liankai who was behind Jin''s move. A superior person like He Liankai. Killing is just a matter of words. Perhaps He Liankai has long forgotten this incident back then, but Qin Chi will not forget it. "Tuk-tuk." There was a gentle knock on the study door. Qin Chi put down the letter and said, "Come in." With a "squeak" sound, the two doors were pushed open from the outside. Song Jin entered the room carrying a green branch porcelain bowl, walked slowly to the table, and placed the porcelain bowl in front of Qin Chi. "When I saw the lily and lotus seed soup cooked in the kitchen, I brought a bowl to my husband." Song Jin spoke gently. Qin Chi reached out with a smile, pulled her to his side as she was about to leave, and then led her to sit on his lap. A pair of arms wrapped around her, "Would you like to eat with me, madam?" Song Jin''s face turned red and he said awkwardly, "I haven''t seen you for a while, and my husband has become different from the past." He has become Meng Lang. In the past, Qin Chi rarely behaved like this when getting along with her, and most of the time he was reserved and polite. Qin Chi didn''t answer, as if he hadn''t heard anything. He wouldn''t ask this kind of question if he wasn''t stupid. He just reached out and picked up the lily and lotus seed soup on the table. The window lattice slants through the gentle sunlight. It reflects the dependent man and woman in the house. The man was wearing a green gown with soft eyes, while the woman was wearing a light-colored skirt with a shy blush on her face. An ordinary bowl of lily and lotus seed soup. It seems to be a symbol of the two people''s emotions, hazy but real. Qin Chi gently scooped up a spoonful of soup and handed it to Song Jin''s mouth, "Madam, let me try it on my husband. Is this hot enough for your mouth?" Song Jin lowered his head slightly and subconsciously avoided it. He wanted to get up uncomfortably, but Qin Chi refused. The gentleman who was polite outside now assumed a nonchalant and leisurely attitude, teasing his wife to feed her, as if he had done this thousands of times. Qin Chi said directly: "Do you think it''s too hot?" He put the spoon to his mouth. Gently blow away the rising heat, and then send it into her mouth again. Its hard to refuse such hospitality. No, he is very persistent in wanting to feed. Song Jin hesitated for a while, then opened his mouth and swallowed the lotus seed soup. The sweetness and fragrance instantly filled the lips and teeth. Then Qin Chi took a bite, swallowed it and praised: "Well, it''s sweet but not greasy, just like the taste of meeting again after we were separated." As soon as he said these words, Song Jin felt a wave of heat, spreading from his heart to his limbs, and then to his cheeks. It took him a long time to calm down, "Xiangong, who did you learn these words from?" "Do you still need to learn from others? This is a sentiment from the heart, sincere and sincere." Qin Chi''s tone was extremely natural. He was about to start feeding again. As a couple, you take one bite and I take one bite. As the soup in the bowl gradually decreased, the distance between the two became closer and closer, until finally, their noses were almost touching, and they shared the last spoonful of soup. The deep love and sweetness seemed to make even the air sweet. , their eyes are full of each other''s figure, gentle and lingering. "Squeak." The study door, which was ajar, was suddenly pushed open. The couple who were very close to each other suddenly came to their senses and looked in the direction of the door. At first glance, they saw no one, but when they looked carefully, they saw a short little girl. He was groaning as he climbed over the threshold. "Mother? Mother..." Niu Niu got up to look for her mother. She heard from Sister Xiaoyu that her mother had come to the study to look for her father. She was not allowed to disturb her, so she sneaked over secretly so that Sister Xiaoyu wouldn''t notice. Song Jin hurriedly got up from Qin Chi''s lap. He walked around the desk and walked outside. Qin Chi unhurriedly adjusted his clothes, restored his usual gentlemanly posture, stood up and walked around the table towards his wife. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! At this time, Song Jin hugged Niu Niu and asked, "Why did you find her? Have you finished your breakfast?" "I''m done eating. I''m full." Niuniu also patted her round belly. Song Jin was so cute by the little guy that she felt so soft-hearted that she didn''t even notice Qin Chi coming over. She was about to walk out with Niu Niu in her arms, but Qin Chi stretched out his hand to stop him. At this moment, Qin Chi realized something was wrong. The wife''s scant attention to him seemed to have been transferred to the child? It was as if the deep affection between the two of them just now didn''t exist. Qin Chi was struggling with this matter. He didn''t know that outside, news about him and Song Jin spread like a frying pan again. There are many people in the capital paying attention to Qin Chi''s movements. Qin Chi went to ask for leave, and someone over there investigated the reason. I knew that something bad happened when Song Jin came to the capital from Huizhou with his children. According to the news from the Yamen, he was ambushed on the way to the capital. The people of a village were involved. This is no small matter. Everyone thought that a group of gangsters intercepted and "killed" Qin Qi''an''s wife and children on the way, including Qin Chi and Song Jin. They didn''t know that the group went to great lengths just to catch them. But who actually knows this? Even if they knew, no one would care. There were many officials in the six government offices discussing this matter. "Qin Qi''an is so hateful." one official lamented. Another echoed: "That''s not it. Who has his luck? I heard that His Majesty rewarded him with a token, allowing him to enter the palace to meet the saint at any time." "Is this true?" "Pearls are not as real as it." Others looked at the official who spoke. Not many people knew about this matter, so they couldn''t stand it because this official had a relative who was working in the palace. When everyone looked at him, he knew he was talking too much and immediately shut up. Xia Wei reached out and hooked the official, "Come here and tell me what''s going on?" "Xia Shangshu." The official came forward to please him. When asked by Xia Wei, the official could only say: "There was a big fuss in Dongcheng last time. I heard that Qin Shaoqing was injured by a royal guard..." To put it bluntly, Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty learned that Qin Chi was almost assassinated by Jin Yiwei, so he threw a token as compensation. In fact, officials of the fourth rank and above are already qualified to enter the palace to meet the saint. Having a token is a little more convenient. Its symbolic meaning is more than its actual purpose. Officials in the court were speculating that the matter brought out by Qin Chi had not yet been resolved. When the investigation was completed and rewards were given based on merit, Qin Chi''s official position might be promoted. Chapter 371 Minister of Industry Chapter 371 Minister of the Ministry of Industry Qin Chi took leave to stay at home and declined visitors. The reason for asking for leave was that his wife and children were frightened, and he stayed at home to comfort her. In fact, Qin Chi used his vacation time to order people to find where the late prince and Mr. Yan were hiding. The other party attacked his wife and children again, which seriously touched Qin Chi''s bottom line. He even used Li Huarong''s hand to send the so-called suicide note written by Mr. Yang Ge to the court of Emperor Ming Cheng, and asked someone to give the former prince eye drops in front of Emperor Ming Cheng, and then sold him miserably. "Where did you get this letter?" Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty asked Li Huarong. Li Huarong said truthfully: "I don''t know who handed it over. Someone handed it over directly to the concierge. When I asked the concierge who gave it to him, he couldn''t tell clearly. He just said it was a little beggar." Emperor Mingcheng didn''t ask again, and he didn''t know whether he believed it or not. Li Huarong added: "I can''t tell whether it''s true or false. I can only see some similarities with Yang Zhengkai''s handwriting. I can''t tell whether it''s true or false." "He wrote it." After decades of being a king and minister, Emperor Ming Cheng was familiar with handwriting. He put down the letter and changed the question, "Yesterday, Qin Qi''an''s wife and children encountered gangsters. Today, he asked for leave and said he wanted to stay at home to appease his wife and children?" Li Huarong raised his head and glanced at Emperor Mingcheng quickly. He didn''t seem to be angry, but he was still alert at all. Li Huarong said in a pitiful tone: "Qin Shaoqing is probably afraid. Your Majesty, think about it. He himself has been assassinated over and over again, and now he, his wife and children are also being viciously retaliated against." Emperor Ming Cheng''s face darkened, "Can Li Ai Liao guess who is taking revenge on him?" "I don''t know. I think Qin Shaoqing may have ruined someone''s good deeds or hindered someone''s eyes, which made people eager to get rid of him." Li Huarong spoke calmly, and looked up again in the middle of speaking. He glanced at Emperor Ming Cheng. The timing of this glance is very particular. It seems to be saying that Qin Chi was targeted everywhere and was implicated by Emperor Mingcheng. This is invisibly telling Emperor Mingcheng. Qin Chi had a grudge against the former prince, so he would be maliciously retaliated against, which indirectly reassured Emperor Ming Cheng. At the same time, he reminded Emperor Ming Cheng that Qin Chi was a minister he personally promoted, and it would inevitably touch the interests of some people. Under his eyes, if he wants to promote a minister and be tolerated by others, and even his life is not guaranteed, this is undoubtedly a slap in Emperor Ming Cheng''s face. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty sent Li Huarong away impatiently. He picked up Mr. Yang Ge''s suicide note and read it. "Jixiang, do you think this letter may be related to Qin Qian?" Emperor Mingcheng suddenly spoke. Jixiang''s heart pounded, and his head dropped lower, "I don''t know." Only to hear Emperor Mingcheng say again: "His wife came to the capital last night, and today this letter came to my case. The timing is too coincidental. Others don''t know, and I still don''t know the identity of his wife. However, He is willing to take credit for such a big achievement, but can I safely use such a person? " A person who gives up his own interests is either a fool, or he has a bigger agenda. And Qin Qi''an was able to reach the sixth level, which is obviously a smart person, and he is still the kind of top smart person. "I don''t understand this matter. I only know that those who can relieve Your Majesty''s worries are good people. Those who cause trouble for Your Majesty, I hate them." Ji Xiang said this to please. It made Emperor Mingcheng laugh. The matter related to Song Jin''s life experience was naturally investigated by the Jin Yiwei. Emperor Ming Cheng also knew clearly about the donation of tens of thousands of stones of food to the Northwest Army not long ago. Not only Jifang, Shun''an Trading Company is also in the investigation. A quick glance behind Shun''an Trading Company revealed that it was related to the military. Because most of the caravans formed by Shun''an were soldiers who had retired from the army, and the workshops built by Shun''an were mostly made up of disabled soldiers and family members of the hired army. The owner behind Shun''an Trading Company is said to be an Huizhou merchant, who is mainly engaged in the Four Treasures of the Study, and has formed more than a dozen caravans to do business across the country. According to Jin Yiwei''s investigation, Shun''an Trading Company was backed by the Northwest Army, and behind it was Prince Rui''s Mansion. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty once suspected that Qin Chi was the mastermind behind Shun''an. Later, when he thought that Shun''an Trading Company was established and Qin Chi was only about ten years old at the time, Emperor Ming Cheng no longer had any doubts. Besides, he had the eyes to see what Qin Chi had done since he became an official in the court. "Jixiang, come and grind the ink for me. I can''t let the hero''s heart bleed." When Emperor Ming Cheng said this, his eyes were extremely dark. In the afternoon of that day, an imperial edict arrived at Qin''s house in Cuihua Hutong. The Qin family hurriedly set up the incense table, then took a bath and burned incense. The family came to the front courtyard to receive the order. The person who came to deliver the message was Eunuch Jixiang. Jixiang saw with his own eyes that the imperial edict was written by Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. After stamping the emperor''s seal, he immediately asked him to announce the edict. With a solemn face, he slowly opened the imperial edict and read loudly: "The Emperor''s edict!" "My only way to achieve peace is to recruit virtuous people in simple ways to support the state affairs. Qin Qi''an, the young minister of Dali Temple, has both talent and virtue, strict conduct, and achievements in his previous posts. I am very happy." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Today I am promoting you to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Industry to show your ability. You should be loyal and loyal to support the state affairs and do not betray my trust. During your tenure at the Ministry of Industry, you should work hard to govern, build water conservancy, develop farming, and consolidate the country. Its up to you to encourage me "You can take office immediately without any further delay." "Appreciate this!" When the last one fell, the whole place was silent. After a long time, Qin Chi came to his senses first, quickly thanked the emperor for his kindness, shouted long live, raised his hands above his head, and took the imperial edict from Ji Xiang''s hand. In addition, there are official residence deeds specially gifted by the emperor. After all, after you get promoted, you have to have a place to live. Ji Xiang helped Qin Chi up weakly and said with a smile: "Master Qin, congratulations." "Thank you, father-in-law." Qin Chi secretly took the purse that Song Jin put into his hand, and then used the gesture of shaking hands to stuff it into Ji Xiang''s palm. This money can be obtained with peace of mind. After Jixiang accepted the money, he hurriedly left with the people on the grounds that there was still something going on in the palace. Song Jin took the imperial edict, looked at it, and handed it back to Qin Chi. The imperial decree needs to be enshrined in the ancestral hall, but in a big house, the first thing to do is to move. In fact, when Song Jin came back from Huizhou this time, he also discovered that the current house was not enough. "Brother, this is an imperial edict, an imperial edict!" Sanlang''s face was red with excitement and his eyes were astonishingly bright. He stared at the imperial edict and was a little incoherent. "I, Sanlang, saw the imperial edict with my own eyes today. No, no, I even accepted the edict. Uh-huh, no, no, it was my eldest brother who received the edict. I will accompany you to receive it." Thats it, Im done now, hahaha. The boy was dancing with joy. Qin Chi directly stuffed the imperial edict into his arms, "Hey, let me touch it again and enjoy His Majesty''s blessing." "Is it really possible? Is it possible?" Sanlang held the imperial edict and did not dare to move. He held the imperial edict in whatever posture Qin Chi gave him. It seemed that if he moved more, he would be disrespecting the imperial edict. Chapter 372 Sour, sour Chapter 372 Its so sour. Its so sour. There are no outsiders here in the Qin family, but they don''t pay that much attention. Qin Chi asked Sanlang to personally put the imperial edict in the room at the back where the imperial edict is enshrined. Sanlang would find it when he went there. This home is more than just an imperial edict. Song Jin immediately said that he would reward his servants with three months'' worth of moon silver, and that he would give everyone extra food tonight. Niuniu followed Shale beside her. The adults are happy, and so are the children. When you have a child at home, the atmosphere will be much happier. At the same time, Song Jin read the deed of the house. The large house in this area is usually where the princes and nobles live. It is a five-level house. It is said that it was once a mansion built by a certain prince. Song Jin arranged for someone to clean the new house. Repair the areas that need repair as soon as possible. Everyone here in the Qin family is busy. Regarding the fact that Qin Chi reached the second rank and became the minister of the Ministry of Industry, the whole court exploded again. Originally, those officials were still spreading rumors that Qin Chi''s wife and children almost had an accident, and that he asked for leave to appease his wife and children. Some small-minded officials had already arranged it behind the scenes, saying that they were exhausted from work, but Qin Chi made a fuss about asking for leave. , not doing his job properly, etc. A lot of sarcastic words. Only half of the afternoon has passed. What did they hear again before they returned home from the Yamen? Qin Qi''an, who was on leave at home, received the imperial edict. His Majesty promoted him to become Minister of the Ministry of Industry? ! From the fourth-rank Shaoqing of Dali Temple, he suddenly jumped to the second-rank Minister of the Ministry of Industry, making him the youngest minister in the history of the Great Xia Dynasty. Many people didn''t believe it at first. I thought someone was spreading rumors. Later, I arranged for my entourage to go outside to inquire, and I found out that the matter could not be more true, just like the Hubu Yamen. "This official luck..." Xia Wei used to be somewhat talented. Now he is envious and jealous. I think he worked hard for more than 20 years before reaching his current position. What about others? Officials of the Hanlin Academy were equally shocked. Qin Qi''an, who was ostracized in the Hanlin Academy and just kept his head down when being bullied, was still vivid in their minds like it was yesterday. It seems that in the blink of an eye, he has reached a high position. The kind that they can''t even bear to feel jealous when they think about it. Ke Bingzhi was so sore before, but he can''t be sore now. Before Qin Chi won the top prize, he was a bachelor''s student, and now Qin Chi has become the second-grade minister of the staff. He is still sitting in his original position, paying homage to his deceased teacher. In one sentence: We are all mortals, and we should not compete with monsters. There are always some people in the world whose talent, learning, luck, and even wealth are far beyond our comparison. For this reason, I have always been brooding and fussing over everything, which is just asking for trouble. Not to mention the situation in other yamen. Just in the Ministry of Works, some people are happy and some are worried, especially the two ministers, who have worked hard and worked hard to complete the work of the Ministry of Works during this period. They are vying to make political achievements, hoping to be favored by Emperor Mingcheng and take another step up. . You must know that these two are the most likely to be promoted. After all, they are only one step away from being the Minister of Industry. Ever since the one named Yuan stepped down, the two began to compete with each other. Sometimes they even tried to hinder each other''s work, just to prevent the other from overpowering them. What is it now? Everything they did was in vain. Or even making wedding clothes for others? The two ministers worked under the former minister, and their relationship was quite good. However, the position of minister had been vacant for so long, and the unreliable relationship between the two was lost in this way. If one of them rises. They failed, they didn''t compete with each other, or they could still feel calmer. The problem is that neither of them has been promoted, and a man who is less than half their age is inexplicably airborne. Moreover, this man has done things under them before, and they feel sorry for him? One emperor and one courtier. This is also true here at the Ministry of Industry. Qin Chi has become their immediate boss, so he must cultivate his confidants. Asking the two of them to follow Qin Chi and obey his orders, they were unwilling to do anything they wanted. They were so angry that they rushed out of the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry! Others in the yamen looked at it with expressionless faces. There were quite a few people secretly watching the excitement. For example, the people from Yu Heng Division who thought they got along well with Qin Chi all thought that Qin Chi would be promoted. Their chance would come. Feel. As for who is close to Qin Chi in the Ministry of Industry? Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Of course they are from their Yu Heng Division! Yu Hengsi''s former minister, the current doctor, chuckled and said: "The left servant and the right servant have something to do today and have to go to the office early. Do you think we should prepare some gifts and go to Mr. Qin''s house to congratulate us and ask for a drink by the way?" Drink? I heard that the highland barley wine at Mr. Qins house is very good, and everyone who has tasted it says it is good, but its a pity that I dont have the opportunity..." "Let''s forget about these two days." The newly appointed Yuanwai Lang shook his head, "Master Qin must be very busy at home now. Going over at this time is just causing trouble for others. If you want to go, you have to wait for the master to move." "Yes, His Majesty rewarded me with a big house." The people present became envious again when he mentioned the house. Who wouldnt want to own a five-level mansion? Qin Qi''an reached the sky in one step, which was immediately beyond the reach of others. The doctor said with emotion: "When Sir was my boss, I could see that he was extraordinary..." This means you believe it yourself. Who among the people present believed it? Who didn''t envy Qin Qi''an at that time, and the sour taste in his heart was about to spread throughout the entire Yu Heng Division. It''s just that in the past, Qin Chi was their boss, they could still get in touch with them, and they could still imagine when he would replace him. Now he stands too high, and they are not even qualified to be sour. After all, even if that position falls to them , they dont have the ability to do it. At this time, Dali Temple was just the opposite. Very quiet, very quiet. It was a bit eerily quiet, as if everyone was dreaming, or felt like they hadn''t woken up from their dream yet. No, they are about evidence. If you dont spread rumors, dont believe them. So when they arrived at the Yamen, some people left the Yamen in a hurry and arranged for people to go to Cuihua Hutong to inquire. Some people even came to Cuihua Hutong with him on the pretext of having a night talk with Dong Xingde Bingzhu. Everyone knows that the house where Dong Xingde lives is opposite Qin Chi. They didn''t have the guts to go directly to Qin Chi. We can only use roundabout means to go to Dong Xingde''s house to find out whether it is true or not, because if there is really an imperial edict, there is no reason that the Dong family living opposite Qin Chi would not know about it. The **** in charge of rituals in the palace has always come to deliver the imperial edict. The pomp was quite big. Not to mention that when people arrive at Qin''s house, they will definitely make a scene as soon as they enter Cuihua Hutong, which will be known to everyone in the alley. Chapter 373 Business Chapter 373 Business Qin Chi noticed it at home. Neighbors came to inquire, and almost all of them were Old Man Hong, the concierge. Of course, it''s not that the Qin family doesn''t have visitors, such as Lu Yanji and Lu Baizhou. Also coming over was Yan Xianqing. Surprisingly, Xia Wei came uninvited. Qin Chi set up a banquet to entertain them. After they were full, they made tea and started chatting. Yan Xianqing picked up the tea and asked, "When is Qi''an going to report to the Ministry of Industry?" "I''m going to Dali Temple tomorrow to hand over the matters at hand, the matters at the Hanlin Academy... Mr. Yan, I''m thinking about resigning? In case someone sees that I don''t go enough, they will make irresponsible remarks." Qin Chi asked modestly. Yan Xianqing waved his hand, "No, no, no, the Hanlin Academy is always quiet, so you can just go over and show your face every now and then. If anyone has any objections, just ask them to come to me." "Then there is Lord Laoyan." Qin Chi naturally understood that the other party was speaking politely. Asking him to go to the Hanlin Academy every three to five days is naturally not just an appearance. It is what he should do and he still has to do it. But he can ask his colleagues for help, or let the people below take responsibility, and then report to him afterwards. Just report it. to their position. Many things can be done with just one sentence, and let the people below do it for you. Xia Wei said: "Everyone has a lot of things going on recently, and I''m afraid the Ministry of Works is also busy. Mr. Qin should go to the Ministry of Works earlier." "I have this idea too." Qin Chi knew that the other party was reminding him with good intentions. The war in the northwest made officials in the DPRK and China very busy, and the affairs in their hands increased a lot. The Ministry of Industry''s weapons manufacturing alone is the top priority today. Otherwise, Qin Chi would ascend to the position of minister. In addition, the left and right ministers, who were trying to get promoted, suddenly heard the news and couldn''t help but lose their temper. After sitting for a cup of tea, they stood up and said goodbye. Qin Chi politely sent the person out of the door. I accidentally met Dong Xingde in front of the door, as well as colleagues who came to his home to inquire about the news. We met unexpectedly, and several colleagues immediately came to say hello. Everyone is still very measured. They just exchanged a few words and then went back to their respective homes. Qin Chi went back to the backyard and saw Song Jin accompanying his youngest son and daughter. He went over and picked up Niuniu, "My daughter, do you miss your father?" "Think about it!" The little girl giggled happily as she was picked up. Song Jin joked: "When did you think about it? You had a lot of fun just now." "Niuniu is thinking about what daddy is eating." Her childish little voice was filled with regret. It looked like she wasn''t eating. Song Jin was amused. Qin Chi hugged his daughter and walked to the short couch, "Come on, before you go to bed, daddy will teach you to practice calligraphy for a while. When you practice your handwriting beautifully, your mother will not say that your handwriting is ugly." "Okay." Niuniu was very happy. Song Jin watched the father and daughter interact. There are very few such warm scenes. Qin Chi looks leisurely to outsiders, but in fact he is very busy. He doesn''t really spend much time with his family. Song Jin lowered his head and looked at his little son who had just eaten. After a while. The child fell asleep and Song Jin handed him to Mrs. Huang. Mrs. Huang took the child to the next room. Mu Ting came over to Song Jin''s ear and whispered a few words. The smile on Song Jin''s face faded and her beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, "Do you know who is behind this?" "Manager Xing checked it out and said that the Zhang family of Cunyi Qianzhuang was behind it." Mu Ting reported the news she had just received to Song Jin. Xing Lun has arrived in the capital with his caravan, and is currently at the water transport terminal in Zhangjiawan. He asked Mu Ting to send a message, saying that the collection of medicinal materials has been frequently encountered recently. Several merchants and some drug growers broke the contract one after another for the medicinal materials that had been negotiated. Those who have signed a contract are better off and can still get the compensation they deserve, but those who have made an oral agreement are in trouble and will lose more than a little bit. Ever since the big boss of Huizhou Cunyi Bank embezzled the Song family''s money, Song Jin still did not cooperate with Cunyi Bank again even if the money was later taken back. Originally they were living in peace and had no interactions with each other, so why did the Zhang family suddenly attack Jifang? Song Jin couldn''t think of when they would offend the Zhang family again, "Let someone investigate when we offended the Zhang family. If we can''t find out, that''s it. There is no need to be persistent about the pharmacists and farmers who broke the contract. In business, people If we like to cooperate with you, we will cooperate. If we dont love you, there is nothing we can do. But once we are bitten by a snake, we will be afraid of the consequences. Within ten years, Jifang will refuse to cooperate with anyone who breaks the contract, including his family. Mu Ting was stunned after hearing this, "Wouldn''t our losses be more serious?" Not to mention the drug dealer who breached the contract. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The influence of herb farmers is great. Generally, people of the same clan in a village will not only have one or two herb pickers or herb farmers. Song Jin''s behavior is undoubtedly because of one person, and it takes one pole to overturn a boatload of people. This move is very inconsistent with business practices. However, Song Jin still decided to do this, "When the signs arise, give up what you should give up. If you hesitate, you will only lose more in the future. Just tell Xing Lun what you said truthfully. After he hears it, will know what to do. Mu Ting respectfully responded and went out. Suddenly, Qin Chi''s voice came from behind: "Madam, do you want to shrink your business?" Song Jin looked back at Qin Chi. I looked behind him again and found that Niuniu was writing seriously with a brush at the small square table above the low couch. Song Jin said casually: "That''s not true. It''s just that if others want to rob it, they can rob it. I don''t care about what I can rob." "Don''t force yourself." Qin Chi''s face was still worried. Song Jin was speechless and said: "You don''t believe it? I will lose a lot of money initially by doing this, but it will be more beneficial to Jifang''s subsequent development. This can eliminate some collaborators with bad character, and then use it to shake the mountain and make people see their betrayal." consequences. "Madam, do you believe that those who break the contract will regret it?" Qin Chi sat opposite Song Jin and waited for her to continue with a smile. "In the field of medicinal materials, Jifang has been able to develop so fast not only because the medicinal materials are good, but also because it has always been fair and honest. It also treats drug farmers the best and never defaults on their settlement money." In terms of business, Song Jin was deeply influenced by his father. Many things continued the Song family''s practices. Some actions were considered stupid in the eyes of his peers, but they were extremely beneficial to drug farmers. "Do you still remember that when my house was ransacked, many people discovered that most of my medicine fields were under the names of medicine farmers?" Song Jin suddenly asked. Qin Chi had naturally heard of it, "I remember. Many people say that the Song family is kind." He didn''t say that more people called the Song family stupid. Good medicinal fields are all under the name of medicinal farmers. This made it impossible for the government to copy it even if they wanted to, and some people who were waiting to carve up the benefits of the Song family were unable to get much advantage and cursed for a long time. Chapter 374 A husband is not as good as a wife Chapter 374: A husband is not as good as a wife Song Jin recalled some things from that year. I just feel ironic and relieved. Especially at that time, the Zeng family was bent on defeating their colleague, the Song family, so that the Zeng family could develop and grow with the prefect. What about now? The Zeng family has become a thing of the past. Song Jin knew that Qin Chi was curious about this matter, so he simply told him the inside story, "There is an invisible benefit to being a medicine farmer for my family. Under normal circumstances, there is no need to sign a contract of sale. Also, after three generations, the medicine field will be transferred to the medicine farm." Among farmers. Of course, only experienced medicine farmers are qualified to know this latter point. This was also the medicinal material of the Song family in Huizhou. The reason why the contract for the medicinal fields was all on the medicinal farmers. Human nature is actually very complex. It is not uncommon to choose to breach a contract for the sake of higher interests. When you later find out that what you get is not as good as before, you will definitely feel regretful. Likewise, will the people who are implicated by him not have grudges? Over time, you will regret it until your intestines turn blue. "My wife''s methods are very gentle." Qin Chi said this, but his eyes seemed to be smiling. It''s really gentle and not illegal, just like a gentle knife. A knife can cause no blood, but it can hurt people to the core. This is for drug farmers. As for the drug dealers who broke the contract, they don''t care so much. Song Jin added: "Medicine farmers are the foundation of Ji Fang. Seventy percent of the medicinal materials collected in daily life are collected directly from the medicine farmers, and the rest are obtained from the medicine dealers." Yes, its a change. In exchange for other goods or medicinal materials. Xing Lun and others wanted to collect some local medicinal materials in the past, but the market was only so big and the benefits had long been divided up. When they need it, they take out the medicinal materials that are lacking in the local area, exchange them with drug dealers, and then transport them to other places for sale to earn the price difference. The only troublesome thing is that some of the medicinal materials previously agreed with others may not be collected. It''s okay if you break your promise and don''t sign a cooperation agreement. Once you sign, you need to pay compensation. After all this trouble, Xing Lun will probably be very busy recently. In the past, Song Jin would have asked to leave without hesitation. Now I don''t dare to take risks. Just from Huizhou to the capital. The **** storm along the way was enough to make Song Jin wary. Song Jin turned his eyes to Qin Chi''s face and asked jokingly: "Is your husband so interested?" "In fact, I don''t participate much in my business. Uncle Tao and the others are basically in charge." Qin Chi has many capable people, so he doesn''t need to worry about many things, but he still chuckled in a low voice, "In the business field , a husband is not as good as a wife. "My husband is too modest." Song Jin looked at him with a smile. In fact, Qin Chi said this because the annual income of Shun''an Trading Company was far less than that of Jifang. There are differences between the couple. Song Jin is a pure businessman. When doing business, he really does business, and doing business is mainly about profit. On the contrary, Qin Chi is not. The more he earns, the faster he spends it. Even now, he still often worries about lack of money. While talking to Qin Chi, Song Jin was still holding a letter in her hand, which was actually sent by Xing Lun. Before she opened it, Qin Chi came and spoke first. In front of Qin Chi, Song Jin opened the letter. The above mentioned in detail the business stumbling block caused by the Zhang family. Finally, Xing Lun mentioned darkly that he had visited the Zhang family of Song Jin''s maternal grandfather, and the two parties had a very pleasant conversation. However, during the chat, the Zhang family''s eldest uncle mentioned that he often met people in Zhangjiawan. Face, tell him to be careful around the docks. Song Jin immediately handed the letter to Qin Chi, "Master, come and take a look." Qin Chi was confused at first, but then when he saw Song Jin''s serious expression, he took the letter and lowered his head to look at it. He took in the things in front of him at a glance, and finally fixed his eyes on the unfamiliar face. Not long ago, a large number of people of unknown origins were mixed into the capital. There was a big fuss. In fact, the unknown origin alone cannot cause such a big fuss. Regardless of the prosperity of the capital, there have never been fewer beggars on the streets, let alone in the slums. The number of these people in the entire capital is not small. The most important thing was that that day, we searched the former prince''s stronghold and then found the underground secret passage in the east city. Dongcheng is still on alert, and some officers and soldiers are still digging secret crossings. At this time, a large number of unfamiliar faces appear in Zhangjiawan, which is quite suspicious. Zhangjiawan is where the Capital Pier is located. Qin Chi handed the letter back to Song Jin and immediately stood up and walked out, "This matter is not trivial. Madam, I will go out and tell Uncle Hong." "Ms. sir, go get busy." Song Jin said understandingly. Qin Chi walked out in a hurry. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin folded the letter, put it in the envelope, and put it in a secret compartment of a bookshelf. "Mom, is daddy busy again?" Niu Niu raised her head and looked at the back of Qin Chi who was striding away. She pouted with an unhappy look on her face, "Daddy lied again and said he wanted to practice calligraphy with Niu Niu, huh." "Naughty, your dad really has something important to do." Song Jin closed the secret compartment, walked back to Niuniu''s small desk, sat next to her and said gently, "Your father doesn''t have time, how about my mother coming to accompany you? I think Niuniu will definitely agree, it can''t be my mother." Its better for daddy to please Niuniu, otherwise mommy will be sad. "Ah, no, no. Niuniu likes my mother the most." Niuniu was a little emotional. When Song Jin said this, he immediately forgot about his unhappiness and was busy trying to explain to Song Jin. Xiaoyu on the side saw Song Jin coaxing Niu Niu with a few words, and was looking at Song Jin with admiration. When a child starts to act unreasonably, it''s really frustrating. Song Jin played with her daughter attentively. As soon as it got dark outside, the little girl started to doze off. Song Jin picked her up and took her back to her room. Qin Chi was busy until midnight before returning. When he returned to his room, Song Jin had already rested. When she woke up the next day, Qin Chi had already gone to the Yamen. Song Jin couldn''t help him with many things. I can only protect this home for him. Not long after Song Jin got up, she heard the maid coming to report that the Dong family''s wife from the house opposite had come to visit her. She said she had made some pastries and brought some for her and her children to try. Mrs. Dong would come to visit me in the past, but not many. Song Jin went to see her. While chatting, Mrs. Dong mentioned the fact that Dong Xingdes colleagues came to visit yesterday, and her tone was quite strange. She mentioned that Dong Xingde had been an official in the court for so many years, and said that no colleagues had ever visited the Dong family. "Several people came here suddenly. I originally thought that my husband''s popularity has finally improved, but guess what?" Madam Dong has a cheerful temperament. He is the kind of person who often laughs before saying anything to others without being annoying. Song Jin asked in time: "What''s the matter? Madam Dong, tell me." "Oh, it''s because of your husband-in-law''s blessing." Then, Madam Dong told Song Jin as if it was a joke that the guests came to inquire about the Qin family, and she also specifically mentioned who was visiting. After sitting for a little while, the person excused himself and went home. Song Jin knew that he came here specially. The Dong family did this because they did not want to create a gap with the Qin family. PS: The content of the chapter is confusing and has been modified.

Chapter 375 Chapter 375 Family Song Jin saw off Mrs. Dong and went back to the dormitory to pack her luggage. There were a lot of things to pack when she got here, and the clothes from earlier had to be taken out and washed. While she was working, she was thinking about the Zhang family. It is not easy for the Zhang family to have the background to open a bank. It is said that they once conquered the world with the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty and were awarded a title. However, later a member of the clan stood in the wrong team and the title was lost. From then on, the Zhang family kept a low profile. The main branch lives in the capital. There are children of the Zhang family serving as officials in the court, and it seems that the right minister of the Ministry of Industry was born in the Zhang family. Let Qin Chi mention it to him when he comes back tonight. Let Qin Chi''s people check again. After Song Jin thought about it carefully, he decided to hand over the Zhang family''s affairs to Qin Chi for investigation. The manpower she has developed over the years is not as capable as Qin Chi''s. At this time, Mu Ting walked in from outside. Song Jin asked: "How is it at the new house?" "The house is well preserved and can be lived in with a little care. Uncle Li said that there are a few places that need minor repairs. He is already contacting the craftsmen. Uncle Hong also asked him to find a reliable one." Mu Ting smiled. He said, when he saw Song Jin taking care of the boxes and cages, he quickly stepped forward to help, "Would you like to transfer Xiao Fu back from the kitchen? You need someone to serve you." "I heard that Xiaofu is learning cooking skills from Aunt Feng." It''s not that Song Jin never thought about it this way, but he gave up the idea after hearing about it. Now she and her child are surrounded by Xiaoyu and Mrs. Huang, as well as Mu Ting and Qin Qi. That''s almost it. No matter how much there is, this house wont be able to accommodate it. When Qin Chi bought this house, he never thought that he would be promoted so quickly. He also thought that he would live here in poverty for many years, so he thought it was suitable to live here. Song Jin had time to visit the new house in person. Some people are cleaning the house, and craftsmen are repairing the walls. The large and small gardens, as well as the plants in the backyard, are either left uncared for, growing wildly, or have long since died. Valuable flowers and plants have long been poached. The rest are all ordinary flowers and trees. Song Jin didn''t dislike this either. Mu Ting and Qin Qi, who were on the side, were also happy when they saw such a large residence. When they move here, each of them will be able to live in a single room, so they won''t have to crowd together. "Master, do you want Brother Wei to find some expensive flowers and plants to plant?" Mu Ting asked excitedly. Song Jin shook his head, "No need." Others need expensive flowers and plants to decorate the facade, but their family does not. They are from a grassroots background, and it is good to be able to maintain such a big house. Spending money to buy some useless things just to decorate the facade, on the contrary, makes them feel inferior. People should live openly. You should also act to the best of your ability and act as you should. In such a big house, only a family of four can live. There is no need to spend time in the front yard or the back yard. They can all live in the front yard. Because the house in the front yard can accommodate everyone, which is more than enough. After cleaning, add new furniture. Ask the shop assistant to bring it over and set it up. Song Jin did not want any more furniture from the previous house, but added a batch of new ones. He carefully decorated the hall for entertaining guests and the tea room where Qin Chi usually entertained guests. Elegant and elegant simple style. It''s not expensive, but it makes people feel comfortable when they enter. Mu Ting and Qin Qi were ordered around, and Song Jin himself made arrangements. I was so busy that I was busy until dark. Qin Chi came to pick him up in person. When he saw Song Jin was sweating profusely, he swallowed the words he wanted to teach her a few words, took out a handkerchief and handed it to her, "Madam, wipe your sweat." "Thank you, sir." Song Jin took the handkerchief and wiped the sweat on her forehead. After wiping it, she found that the handkerchief seemed to be stained with water, and it was no different from the one she had brought before. Qin Chi was embarrassed to see her, including the ugly makeup on her face, which was gone when she wiped off the sweat. Her cheeks were as white as snow, and rosy in the white, as beautiful as peonies bathed in dew in the morning. , people cant help but want to take it off and hide it. I discovered the inner urge to move. Qin Chi quickly looked away and said covertly: "These hard work can be done by the people below. Is it necessary for the lady to do it herself?" "The family is short of manpower." Song Jin said embarrassedly. Qin Chi choked suddenly, "When we move here, I''ll ask Uncle Li to bring a few more people back." "OK." Song Jin understood the meaning of his words. This person is invited, so he must be someone they trained. Qin Chi''s identity does not allow him to buy people outside casually. Who can guarantee that the person he buys back is not an informant arranged by others? Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin had no objection to this. Just have someone to help with the work. Qin Chi told Qin Qi and then led Song Jin outside. Just as he reached the gate, he stopped again, turned to look at Song Jin and said, "Madam, I can protect you now. You My life experience is no longer a problem, do you still need to cover it up? Song Jin didn''t understand why he asked suddenly. But his fixed eyes seemed to be waiting for her answer. Qin Chi raised his big broken hand and reached it to her cheek. The pad of his thumb touched her cheek gently twice, as if to remind her, "My wife has sweated a lot today. The makeup is all spent. Song Jin was surprised when he heard this. Immediately he covered his cheeks in embarrassment. "I didn''t notice it for a moment." Then she covered her face with her sleeves and followed Qin Chi out, "I met a few people today. They are all shop assistants. There should be no problem. I didn''t even break a sweat when I met them." "It doesn''t matter." "Better say goodbye to avoid trouble." Song Jin currently wants to keep a low profile and doesn''t want to attract too much attention, so it''s actually good not to reveal her appearance. Qin Chi nodded with a smile, "That''s okay, as long as the lady is happy." It is better to keep the treasure to yourself so that only he can appreciate it. Old Li Tou drove his carriage and stopped outside the gate. Qin Chi took Song Jin out, helped her to the door, and even lifted the car curtain himself, taking good care of her, attentively and considerately. This scene fell into the eyes of some people. There was a carriage not far away, and the curtains were slightly opened, just in time to see Qin Chi helping Song Jin get into the carriage. The affection flowing between the two was not like what his father said, Qin Chi was holding on for fame. "That is his wife?" Wu Jingyao in the carriage asked coldly. The maid next to her whispered back: "Yes." "My father said that all men want in life is power, wealth and beauty. Qin Qi''an''s wife is just a village woman, and she is ugly. He is unlikely to like her. People outside say that he loves her. Those who value their wives and children cannot be trusted, and they also say that literati only love hypocrisy and reputation. As long as you give them a reason that does not harm their reputation and can win the beauty back..." Then, the marriage she planned will be completed. Chapter 376 plot Chapter 376 Plot Wu Jingyao really fell in love with Qin Chi. Qin Chi''s status, talent, and appearance were all reasons why Wu Jingyao liked him. In order to find a good marriage, it doesn''t hurt to use some tricks. Know yourself and your enemy before acting. She wanted to get to know Qin Chi''s wife first. However, since Qin Chi became an official, Song Jin never participated in various banquets and entertainment. Neighbors would visit Qin''s house. Others only say that she is good-tempered, gentle and dignified, and never blushes with others. No more words. The neighbors actually had limited knowledge of Song Jin, and all they knew was the side she deliberately showed. Today I learned that Song Jin is leaving. Wu Jingyao came here because she wanted to see Song Jin and think of a way to make friends with him. Then she could legitimately go to the Qin family as a guest. The more times I go, I can always meet Qin Qian. This is the safest way that she and her father have discussed. Failure will not damage her reputation. Who expected to see Qin Chi helping Song Jin out. Song Jin covered her face with her sleeves, and from a distance she looked like a beauty, not like the salt-free women rumored outside. The beauty here is not about the face, but the body and temperament. Wu Jingyao bit her teeth secretly, "The way Qin Qi''an looked just now didn''t look like he didn''t care about his wife." "Could it be just pretending?" the maid whispered. Wu Jingyao turned back and glared at her, "Go back home. This matter needs to be discussed with father again. If Qin Qi''an and his wife don''t have feelings, it''s easy to plot, but if they do, it will be difficult. Ordinary means cannot be used, otherwise, getting married If it doesnt work, it will lead to enmity. "Miss is right." The maid quickly flattered him and urged the coachman outside to return home. Wu Jingyao didn''t expect that someone would take action before her. The Qin family''s carriage was turning the corner and almost hit a beauty. in the past tense. The Wu family''s carriage stopped. "What happened?" Wu Jingyao heard a woman crying in front of her, and a maid yelled that her young lady sprained her foot and begged Mr. Qin to help send her to the hospital. The Wu family''s maid got out of the car to check, and came back to report to Wu Jingyao, "Miss, it was the Qin family''s carriage that hit a pair of masters and servants, and the young lady''s foot was injured." "Which one is it from?" Wu Jingyao gritted her teeth and looked gloomy, "You actually took action before me?" "It seems to be Miss Yanzi from the Zhang family." The maid stood on tiptoes again and poked her head forward. Now Wu Jingyao couldn''t help but mock, "It''s her, a shabby girl who can''t even keep her title. Her family wants to marry the man I like, and they don''t know whether to live or die." "Miss Zhang''s uncle is the right minister of the Ministry of Industry." The maid did not dare to say that Miss Zhang was a famous beauty. I felt pity for her appearance, and she was very popular with men. Since the young lady of the Zhang family turned fifteen last month and had hair extensions, the matchmaker is about to cross the threshold of the Zhang family. At that time, no one from the Zhang family responded, saying that they wanted to stay for another two years, but who didn''t know that the Zhang family wanted to sell it at a price? Unexpectedly, he had the same idea as the Wu family. Lets talk about Qin Chi and Song Jin. The carriage was moving forward smoothly, but suddenly a woman ran out from the corner and bumped into the carriage as if she was blind. Not to mention that the woman was frightened, the horse was also frightened. If it weren''t for Old Li''s experience and Qin Ba''s help, it would have been a question of whether the horse could be calmed down, and it might have hurt Qin Chi and Song Jin in the carriage. There are also accompanying guards. This woman could avoid the guards and rush to the horse accurately. If she said there was no problem, they would not believe it even if she was beaten to death. Don''t wait for them to say anything. The woman fell to the ground and screamed. Another girl dressed as a maid rushed out, opened her mouth and begged Qin Chi in the car to take her lady to the hospital. inside the carriage. Song Jin teased, "Oh, Mr. Qin, the beauty that came to your door?" "Madam, please stop teasing me." Qin Chi held her hand and said to Old Li Tou outside, "Uncle Li, ask a guard to take them to the hospital." It should be Lao Litou outside. Old Li Tou called a guard and asked him to see the person off. Everyone present could see such a shallow method. But normally, men love sex, and when they see a woman they are bumping into, a beautiful woman whom I feel pity for, they will most likely pretend to be stupid, which is simply called lust. This is what the Zhang family had in mind. Don''t worry about what Qin Chi will see. As long as Qin Chi sees Zhang Yanzi''s appearance, he will be shocked. There''s really nothing wrong with the plan. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Another man might have succeeded. But this abacus bead happened to meet Qin Chi, and Song Jin happened to be in the carriage. After seeing the beauty of the world, who would be willing to give in? Qin Chi dismissed it with just one sentence. The carriage continued to move forward. Qin Chi did not get off the carriage, and the Zhang family did not even make a splash. Wu Jingyao in the back watched a good show. At first, she was a little happy to see Zhang Yanzi return without success, but soon realized that this situation was not good news for her either. What does this mean? Qin Qi''an is probably not a womanizer as people say. The carriage stopped at the roadside. Wu Jingyao opened the car curtain and looked up at Zhang Yanzi, who was supported by the maid. "Sister Zhang, is your foot injury serious? Do you want me to give you a ride?" Wu Jingyao said with a smile on her face and a gentle voice. Like a caring little sister. Zhang Yanzi''s face suddenly darkened. Thinking that the person was still outside, she quickly restrained herself and looked back. Instead of being escorted by the guards of the Qin family, it would be better to take Wu Jingyao''s carriage. Then she said softly to the guards of the Qin family: "I''ll just let Miss Wu see her off, so I won''t bother guarding my brother. After all, it''s Men and women are different. Then he motioned to the maid to help him get into the carriage. Wu Jingyao curled her lips when she saw this scene from the car window. By acting coquettishly in front of a guard, it becomes even more difficult for the Zhang family to be dignified. Zhang Yanzi got on the carriage, still looking weak. As soon as she met Wu Jingyao''s mocking eyes, she knew that the other party had seen what just happened, and she spoke preemptively: "It''s almost dark, why is Sister Wu still outside? Its not close to Wu Bohou Mansion. "Ouch, something happened." Wu Jingyao covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and said as if she was trying not to laugh, "I thought to myself, it''s a good thing I came out, otherwise, I wouldn''t be able to help Sister Zhang." Zhang Yanzi''s expression calmed down, and she glanced at Wu Jingyao with watery eyes, "We are all the same, so no one should make fun of anyone else. I heard that last time I was a guest at Yan''s house, Sister Wu went to meet her husband in the front yard of Yan''s house?" "Where did the rumors come from? It''s nothing." Wu Jingyao denied it calmly, "I was accompanied by my cousin the whole time that day. I just need to go and inquire about it." "Okay, whatever Sister Wu says, it''s up to you." Zhang Yanzi''s attitude is very thought-provoking. After sending the person off for a while, Wu Jingyao kicked him out of the car. Zhang Yanzi''s master and servant were quickly picked up by another carriage. Chapter 377 Qin Chis counterattack Chapter 377 Qin Chis counterattack "Master Qi, the suspicious carriage earlier belonged to Wu Bohou Mansion, and there were only Wu Jingyao and her maid inside." The sound of reports from the guards outside spread into the carriage. Qin Chi hummed slightly, indicating that he understood. Song Jin smiled half-heartedly and said, "Young Master Qin is so handsome and blessed." "Madam, please don''t laugh. My future innocence depends entirely on you." Qin Chi said it with seriousness and politeness. Song Jin looked away and secretly cursed someone for being shameless! His thick skin was probably learned in officialdom. Anyone who gets involved in officialdom will be stained black no matter how clean they are. Wu Jingyao''s carriage stopped near the new house. It stayed there for such a long time. Naturally, it could not escape the eyes and ears of the Qin family''s secret guards. However, the people in the carriage never came out, making it unclear what the intention was. The secret guards just waited and watched. Qin Chi met Wu Jingyao last time in Yan Mansion. After such a long time, he has forgotten what the other person looks like, but he does remember the name. It''s just that he would not mention what happened that day in front of his wife without thinking. Seeing that Song Jin didn''t hold on to this matter. Qin Chi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Song Jin said in time: "I heard that the right minister of the Ministry of Industry is a member of the Zhang family. The daughter of the Zhang family suddenly acted like this. Could it be that the Zhang family wants to tie you to them?" "Maybe it''s possible." Qin Chi didn''t dare to conclude whether this was the case, and then said in a joking tone, "While my wife was away in the capital, there was a secret rumor that I was your majesty''s illegitimate son." Song Jin was stunned for a moment when he heard this. Qin Chi immediately told the whole story. Song Jin suddenly realized, "Whether this rumor is true or false, there will be people who want to establish a relationship with you in advance. If it is true, they will make a lot of money. It doesn''t matter if it is false. You are worth winning over." "My wife is so smart." Just one click. Qin Chi is glad that he married a wife who is worry-free. Especially with the comparison of my brother-in-law Qin Mingsong, I feel even more happy. The carriage entered Cuihua Alley. Song Jinzai passed by the Liu family''s mansion. The Liu family''s door is closed tightly, and it is said that the main family has left Beijing. According to the law, the crime was not as serious as that of a married woman. However, as a member of the Liu family, Liu Jianfang worked in Taiyuan Hospital, so she was inevitably implicated and arrested and imprisoned. The female relatives of the Liu family were put into the Jiaofang Division. Liu Jianfang is not on the list. Liu Jianfang was aloof and arrogant, and could not bear the punishment of Jin Yiwei, so he committed suicide one step ahead. Xiaoxi and Xiaohuan, her confidant maids, hung themselves that night and chose to follow their master. The death of masters and servants is the norm. This is the powerful class, a mountain that cannot be crossed. After the founding emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty died, all those who had no children in the harem were buried. A total of thirty-eight concubines and fifteen maids were buried. This was the case for all subsequent emperors. Most of the people who were buried were members of the royal family and heroes, and ordinary servants were not included in the burial. But if their master''s death was caused by their negligence, none of them would survive. In his previous life, Qin Chi died unexpectedly, and many people died secretly, including Lao Huo, Lao Li Tou, Shopkeeper Tao and Doctor Jing, not to mention a group of secret guards who were supposed to protect him. "What are you thinking, madam? Are you so entranced?" Qin Chi asked in a low voice. Only then did Song Jin realize that the carriage had stopped, but she had not made any move, which attracted Qin Chi''s inquiry. Song Jin said warmly: "I just passed by the gate of the Liu family and I thought of Liu Jianfang and Xiao Xi. I am more familiar with Miss Xiao Xi than Liu Jianfang. She has been visiting me from time to time." "Oh, I have some impression of that maid." Qin Chi met Xiao Xi at home. Just a few encounters. He stretched out his hand to help Song Jin get out of the car. Song Jin asked softly: "The Liu family''s affairs did not involve the Liu family?" "Liu Ji wrote a divorce document and clarified his relationship with the Liu family, and then left the capital overnight. The Liu family was lucky, and there was no evidence of his family''s crimes in the Liu family." Qin Chi did not say that after Liu Ji left the capital , he kept making people stare at each other. Then Qin Chi added, "Neither does the Yang family. Yang Lingyu''s wife, Liu, quietly divorced her husband on the day he was arrested, took away her children, and even had the children change their surnames when they moved their household registration. willow." Regarding the matter of reconciliation, Liu was very secretive. By the time outsiders received the news, Mrs. Liu and her children had already left Beijing and disappeared. Song Jin sneered coldly, "The Liu family is very calculating." The Liu family and the Yang family made such big mistakes, but they didn''t even involve the Liu family. There must be someone behind this to clear the blame for the Liu family. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin returned home and heard that the child had rested. The food for her and Qin Chi was still warm in the kitchen pot, so she washed her hands and ate first. Wait until after eating. Song Jin returned to his room. Qin Chi went to the study and said there were still things to do. Song Jin didn''t ask him what he was going to do. He just asked him not to be too tired and asked his servants to make a bowl of ginseng tea for him. In the study. Qin Chi sat in front of the desk, flipping through a file that recorded information about the Zhang family and some past events. Compared with Song Jinshang, Xing Lun needs to be investigated. It is much easier for Qin Chi to get information about the Zhang family here. He only needs to give an order and someone below will send the information up. There are some things that cannot even be investigated by the outside world. For example, this file records that the Zhang family once sent a daughter of the Zhang family to the former crown prince as a concubine. However, the concubine only lived for a month in the East Palace and died suddenly. Precisely because the concubine died too early. The Zhang family luckily escaped the liquidation of Emperor Ming Cheng. "The Zhang family is really related to the late prince?" Qin Chi didn''t think that the concubine died, so the Zhang family and He Liankai lost contact. Old Li Tou said: "Sir, could it be that the Zhang family suddenly caused trouble for Jifang because of the instruction of the first prince?" "Instruction to grab medicinal materials? Medicinal materials..." Qin Chi murmured in a low voice and fell into deep thought. Even though Jifang had donated tens of thousands of stones of food, he still dared to jump out and target Jifang and those who had made meritorious deeds. This was different from the Zhang family''s previous low-key style and was very suspicious. Qin Ba said from the side: "I''ll go and talk to Chen Qianhu when I have time. He is busy tracking down the remnants of the former crown prince, and let''s talk about the concubine again." "This matter cannot be opened up by us." Qin Chi knew that He Liankai wanted to kill him, but he still wanted to avoid his sharp edges, so he was worried that the other party would jump over the wall and continue to attack the people around him, "Shopkeeper Tao is still in Huai''an Mansion, right? I''ll send a letter, you let me People rush to send it off." The ability to move is still very fast. Qin Chi asked Shopkeeper Tao to contact the prefect of Huai''an who was about to be transferred back to the capital, and asked him to write a memorial stating that after Jifang donated tens of thousands of stones of grain, he was immediately targeted by the Zhang family. There were many doubts about the Zhang family in the words, and Zhang said I am suspected of being a spy from another country. Your Majesty, please investigate thoroughly. This counterattack was quite fatal to the Zhang family. I just dont know if the Zhang family will regret provoking Qin Chi and Song Jin in the future. Chapter 378 Fourth Department of the Ministry of Industry Chapter 378 The Fourth Department of the Ministry of Industry The prefect of Huai''an relied on Jifang''s donation of food to find the opportunity to be transferred back to the capital. Invisibly, he owed Jifang a favor. If Jifang was immediately targeted after donating, it would undoubtedly be a slap in the face to him and the court. Furthermore, he will soon be transferred back to Beijing to serve as the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture. Therefore, it was most appropriate for him to bring matters concerning the Zhang family to Emperor Ming Cheng. At that time, Qin Chi asked the people in the palace to pretend that they accidentally mentioned the Zhang family''s gift of Zhang''s daughter to the former prince. The Zhang family will most likely be remembered by Emperor Ming Cheng. Without Qin Chi and Song Jin taking action, the Zhang family would be in bad luck. Early the next morning. Qin Chi went to the Ministry of Industry to take up his post. As expected, he encountered difficulties. The two ministers on his left and right said they were sick and asked for leave to recuperate at home. Without the two ministers to take over the work, it is not easy for Qin Chi to take over the affairs of the Ministry of Works. You must know that the two ministers were doing all the things that the minister of the Ministry of Works should do before. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty did this unethically. Calculated based on work experience and merit. The next minister should choose between the two ministers. No one would say anything about promoting one of them, or directly parachute a highly respected minister of the court. No one would dare to question that Emperor Ming Cheng insisted on promoting Qin Chi. According to Qin Chi''s current qualifications. Being a young minister of Dali Temple is worthy of the heaven. Many officials who knew the inside story didn''t say anything, but who didn''t sympathize with the two ministers in their hearts? If you have a bit of a temper and pretend to be sick, everyone can still understand. Including Qin Chi himself. When I came to the Ministry of Industry, they were nowhere to be seen, and they were not angry either. He was as calm and calm as ever. It was no big deal that the two ministers were missing. He called the ministers from the Fourth Department of the Ministry of Works over and listened to them report on the work at hand one by one. From this we can also understand the current situation of the Ministry of Industry. There are eight doctors in the Ministry of Industry. There is one doctor each in the Camping and Restoration Department, Yu Heng Department and Tuntian Department. There are five doctors in the Dushui Division, but now only two are here and three are absent. Qin Chi looked at the doctor from the Dushui Division, "Where are the other three?" "My lord, the three doctors are absent. It''s not that they didn''t come to see you on purpose. It''s because they are not at the Ministry of Works. They left Beijing on an errand earlier. It will take about a month or two before they can come back." The one who answered was Du Shui Si. An older doctor. Qin Chi hummed lightly and expressed his understanding, "I came to you today because I wanted to say a few words. I believe you all know why I am here today. The reason is that Your Majesty has a unique vision and believes that I can be qualified to serve as the Ministry of Industry. Only after holding the position of Minister can the decree be issued." When some people heard this, they secretly wanted to curse. This is shameless! Didnt you say that Qin Qian was humble and polite? Damn his discernment, Emperor Mingcheng must have lost his mind. No matter how much they felt in their hearts, they didn''t dare to say a word. Several people praised Emperor Mingcheng a few words, and then flattered Qin Chi sincerely. While chatting, Qin Chi also asked about what they were doing. At the same time, I want to find out the core responsibilities of each department. The responsibilities of the four departments cover civil engineering, utensil manufacturing, water conservancy management and financial affairs. This term is very general. In fact, each department has core responsibilities. As long as the core responsibilities are correct. Usually you won''t make much of a mistake. Qin Chi looked at the doctor in the camp and maintenance department, "Mr. You, tell me what you are responsible for?" "My lord, the lower official is in charge of the construction and repair of palaces and government offices." You Langzhong straightened his back and answered confidently. Because the most important department among the four departments is the Battalion and Repair Department, he inevitably has more confidence in front of his colleagues. But after Qin Chi heard what he said, his eyes passed over him and then looked at Yu Hengsi''s doctor. When he saw the person, Qin Chi raised his eyebrows and said, "Congratulations, you have been promoted." "Yes, after your Excellency was transferred, I was promoted to a lower-level official." When he was working under Qin Chi, he was still a member of the Communist Party of China. They could be promoted, but it was Qin Chi who led them to complete the mission of military cotton uniforms. "It''s because of your grace that I can go further. Without you, I wouldn''t be where I am today." "Don''t dare to take it, don''t dare to take it." Qin Chi would not accept such words, "It''s because you did a good job and the adults above saw it." A few simple greetings. The doctor of Yu Hengsi reported the core responsibilities, "The lower official is in charge of weights and measures and coining." "Not bad, I''m capable." Qin Chi felt a little sad for no reason, and said half-jokingly, "I remember when I was the doctor of Yu Hengsi, there were people suppressing me from above, but I had no chance to mint money." No one else could accept his words. When Yuan Shangshu suppressed Qin Chi, everyone knew it. But you know it''s the same thing, but if you say it directly, what do you want to do? Do you want to settle accounts later? Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Several doctors looked embarrassed. They had received orders from their superiors to stay away from Qin Chi. Although there was no time to do anything, there was still some exclusion. Qin Chi looked at the other two doctors with a smile. The doctors from the two departments reported much more positively. The Capital Water Department is in charge of the production of imperial edicts, official documents and other matters. The Tuntian Division is responsible for the repair and write-off expenses of the mausoleum, and collects materials and some taxes. These are the core tasks of Division Four. In addition, there were some complicated matters, but Qin Chi did not inquire in detail. At this time, I just listened to it, but I didnt have a deep impression. Many things cannot be understood by just listening. It is still necessary to check the relevant information and inspect it in person. But it is also necessary to call someone over and give it a beating. Qin Chi decided to take advantage of the absence of the two ministers to visit the Fourth Division. Skip the Camp Repair Department and go to Yuheng Department first. Therefore, the people from the other three divisions were sent away. Only the doctor of Yu Hengsi was left behind. When there were only two people left, the doctor came up to Qin Chi, made a big salute, and said humbly: "Your Majesty, Wang Qiwen, pays homage to Qin Shangshu." "Get up, what are you doing?" Qin Chi pretended to be busy and reached out to help Wang Qiwen in a friendly manner, "We have worked together before, so our relationship is different from others, so there is no need to be so polite." No one with any sense of ideas would take Qin Chi''s words seriously. Wang Qiwen lived almost twice as long as Qin Chi. He knew that he could only listen to these words, "Sir, when you get to Yu Heng Division, if you want to know anything, just ask me and I will tell you everything." "You are good, very good." Qin Chi wanted to compliment him, saying that he is aware of current affairs. It was the same at Yu Hengsi back then. This person knew that he was being squeezed out, but he would still do everything he was asked to do quickly and efficiently. Qin Chi knew that this was an available person. The two of them had a tacit understanding. One of them is thinking about how to employ people, and the other is thinking about how to get Qin Chi into his lap, and maybe the whole Ministry of Works Minister will be able to do it. Chapter 379 Wait for him to come to your door Chapter 379 Waiting for him to come Qin Chi went to Yu Heng Division for inspection. This matter quickly spread in the Ministry of Industry, especially those who paid attention to Qin Chi''s every move. Some people also spread the news to the houses of Wang Shilang and Zhang Shilang. Every hour or so, there was news. Mr. Zhang is in the mansion. His second brother and his eldest daughter Zhang Yanzi came to look for him together. After hesitation, the father and daughter talked about yesterday''s failure to climb up to Qin Chi. Mr. Zhang''s face darkened, "Is he really not good at women?" "I didn''t test this out. He never got off the carriage and didn''t see Zi''er''s face." Mr. Zhang still didn''t believe that a man could not like his Zi''er. Zhang Shilang glanced at Zhang Yanzi who was standing aside, and then said to Mr. Zhang: "Stop staring at Qin Chi. He probably didn''t take notice of him. If you do something like this once, it can be justified as a coincidence. If you do it again, The reputation will be ruined, and the gain will not be worth the loss. "impossible!" Zhang Erye decisively denied it. Zhang Yanzi also lowered her head in shame. Mr. Zhang said angrily: "If it weren''t for the fact that we couldn''t get along with the emperor''s eldest grandson, Zi''er would be qualified to be the emperor''s eldest grandson''s concubine based on her appearance. Why would a bumpkin from the countryside look down on Zi''er?" "Are you crazy?" Zhang Shilang stared at him. When Mr. Zhang saw that he was about to get angry, he immediately lost his temper. "Brother, what I mean is that he didn''t see Zi''er. When he sees her, he will come up by himself without our intervention." "Then why did you come here today?" Zhang Shilang had long known that his younger brother didn''t have much ability, but he was very ambitious. Only then did Mr. Zhang remember the purpose of this, "I want my eldest brother to invite Qin Qi''an to my house as a guest. Then I will find a way to let him see Zi''er, and the rest of the things will be easy to handle." "I won''t invite him. If he wants to come to Zhang''s house, I will ask someone to inform you of the second room." Zhang Shilang is still pretending to be sick at home, just to show off to Qin Qian. After thinking about it, he said, "Qin Qian If you know how to deal with the world, you will most likely come to visit someone with a gift during these two days. As soon as he said this. The eyes of Mr. Zhang Er and Zhang Yanzi both lit up. This is good news. After knowing the news, the father and daughter sat for a while and then left. Next to him, Minister Zhang''s confidant asked in confusion: "Master, how are you sure that Qin Qian will come to visit the Zhang family?" "Without the approval of Shilang Wang and I, it would be impossible for Qin Qi''an to take over the Ministry of Works smoothly. Do you really think that inspecting the Fourth Division can solve the problem? The archives warehouse where important documents are stored in the Ministry of Works was opened after the Yuan family member left. Shilang Wang and I are in control. Without the key in our hands, Qin Qian can''t even enter a warehouse, let alone touch the core. " This is why Zhang Shilang is sure that Qin Qi''an will come to visit. Understanding important information that cannot be internalized only from the outside is undoubtedly a smoke and mirrors. If Qin Chi does not compromise, his rights will be equivalent to being emptied out and he will become a minister similar to a mascot. Zhang Shilang added: "Qin Qi''an has just taken office today and has not realized this yet. He will realize it in two days." "But what if Wang Shilang surrenders to Qin Qi''an first?" A confidant raised concerns. Zhang Shilang''s face was condensed and his eyes flickered, "Will Shilang Wang compromise?" After saying that, he stood up suddenly, "No! You arrange for someone to keep an eye on Shilang Wang. If he meets Qin Qian in private, notify me immediately." "Yes, I will do it right away." The confidant humbly responded, bowed his head and exited the room. Not only Zhang Shilang had this idea, Wang Shilang was also worried that he would compromise with Qin Chi first, and made the same arrangement. On the contrary, the principal, Qin Chi, was inspecting the fourth division of the Ministry of Industry in an orderly manner. The work of the Fourth Division is more arduous than imagined. Qin Chi spent several days inspecting a department in one day. Zhang Shilang and Wang Shilang, who were waiting for him to come to their door, were impatient and no longer had the initial certainty. While Qin Chi was busy with the government affairs, Song Jin was busy moving at home. As for the invitation posts sent to them, Song Jin declined them all. Someone refused to give up and asked people to investigate, and the result was that Song Jin was taking care of the children at home and was busy moving. Song Jin did many things personally. Wu Bohou Mansion, the back house. "Rejected again?" Mrs. Wu frowned, "Does she look down on the Wu family?" Song Jin was invited to sit at his house. He was invited three times, but Song Jin declined them all. Speaking of which, Mrs. Wu was a little unhappy. Don''t look at the decline of the Wu family. Mrs. Wu also has a royal title, and people outside should call her "Lao Fengjun". Mrs. Wu shook her head, "I heard that she is busy moving to a new house." "It''s just an excuse." Mrs. Wu understood clearly. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Just as Mrs. Yan was about to say something, she saw Yan Yurong and Wu Jingyao here, and said to them: "Rong''er, follow your cousin to sit in her room." Yan Yurong knew that her mother wanted to send them away, and she was not happy at first, but when she saw her mother''s serious eyes, she let Wu Jingyao pull her away in frustration. On the way out. Yan Yurong looked back and said, "Cousin, don''t you want to hear it?" "I don''t want to hear it." Wu Jingyao didn''t need to listen deliberately. As long as she wanted to know, she could just ask her mother later. Yan Yurong was very curious about Song Jin at this time, "Cousin, what kind of person do you think Mrs. Qin is? She has been in the capital for so long and not many people have seen her. They all say she is ugly. How ugly is she? ? Wu Jingyao was absent-minded. She couldn''t help but recall a glimpse she had seen from a distance before. She didn''t see the appearance, but the slim figure and temperament still left a deep impression on her. "It''s not ugly." Wu Jingyao murmured. "say what?" Yan Yurong looked at her doubtfully, "What my cousin was saying just now was so quiet that I didn''t hear it clearly." Wu Jingyao said nothing more. The two of them drifted away and walked out of the old lady''s yard. But in the main room. Mrs. Yan was talking about Qin Chi and Song Jin. Outsiders have never seen Song Jin, but Yan Xianqing has. When he came back, he said that Song Jin had good looks, but his appearance was really ordinary, not as delicate as the maids raised by Mrs. Yan. At that time, Mrs. Yan was angry with Yan Xianqing for a long time, and she once suspected that Yan Xianqing had a crush on the maid next to her. Mrs. Yan said angrily: "Xianqing told me to stop thinking about it, and the Wu family had better not want it." "Why is this?" Mrs. Wu asked. Mrs. Yan said: "Qin Qi''an values ??his wife and children very much and will not stop marrying again. It''s not like my Yurong can''t get married. Marrying for a second marriage is already an injustice. How can she be a concubine? If it weren''t for Qin If I pray for success, I will be in a high position in the future, but I didnt even think of that at that time. "It''s okay to be a concubine first." Mrs. Wus eyes flashed. But as soon as she said these words, Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Yan both looked at her in shock. Is she crazy? To actually say such a thing? Chapter 380 Outshine Chapter 380 Outshines others "Sister-in-law, do you want to push Jingyao into the fire pit?" Mrs. Yan looked shocked. The concubines of the Great Xia Dynasty could not be corrected. Once this is accepted, it will be difficult to be a decent lady. Mrs. Yan''s previous idea was because she heard that Qin Chi''s wife was really not worthy of publicity, so she planned to let Qin Qi''an stop his wife and remarry. Mrs. Wu knew she had said something wrong, so she quickly added: "What I meant was to seduce Qin Qi''an''s heart first. He will find a way to deal with his wife at home, and in short, he will not wrong Yao''er." "This idea of ??yours is too taken for granted." Mrs. Yan was infuriated by her sister-in-law''s words, "Mom, anyway, my master''s words, I brought them to you and my sister-in-law. I have been seeing Rong''er recently, and I won''t mix anything more. I advise you to do the same." Its best not to make any plans, its not just Qin Qians family. "I know, and the Zhang family." Mrs. Wu heard her daughter mention it, "That foxy kid tried to seduce Qin Qian a few days ago, and she happened to be met by Yao''er." So, she told Zhang Yanzi again. Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Yan were very disdainful of this. Earlier, there was no news that Qin Chi was weak. There were many families who wanted to marry Qin Chi, and some of them had already tried it in front of the Qin family. However, because Qin Chi had a wife and children, most of the daughters mentioned by those people were A beautiful but underappreciated daughter. Just like Zhang Yanzi. She is beautiful, but her status is not high. The real person in charge of the Zhang family is Zhang Shilang. Zhang Yanzi''s father had no official status and was only responsible for the family business. Most of the money he earned was handed over to the family, so his status was not high. Generally, if a wealthy family or an official''s family wants to marry their son, they will not choose the second wife of the Zhang family. If anyone else wants to pick her, she will also pick the daughter of the minister. Because Zhang Yanzi, the eldest daughter of a second wife, was not as popular in marriage matters as Zhang Shilang''s concubine. That is, Mr. Zhang, who always wants to climb high based on his daughter''s appearance. This is how outsiders view the Zhang family. Whether this is actually the case is unknown. There was no news about the Zhang family''s second roommate taking action against Jifang. If the Zhang family was really the power of the former prince, there would be many factors to get close to Qin Chi, but these women in the inner circle of the Wu family had no way of knowing. They all just thought that the second wife of the Zhang family wanted to get close to Qin Chi. After all, Qin Chi is promising at his age. Not only is his appearance and temperament outstanding, his status is also high. At the same time, he comes from a humble background and is the best in everyone''s eyes. Mrs. Wu said: "There should be a few banquets in the Qin family''s new house, and I should post a post then." "It''s hard to say." Mrs. Yan was not sure, "If I want to show off, my master should have received the invitation. If he hasn''t received it yet, he probably won''t show off." Mrs. Wu frowned and said, "You don''t even have a banquet. This is so incompetent. Isn''t she afraid of outsiders laughing at her?" "A country woman, I''m afraid she doesn''t know that others will laugh at her." Mrs. Wu thought of Song Jin and looked down upon her even more. It''s not just Mrs. Wu who thinks this way, many ladies also think so. It is also very important for the husband''s official career for an official''s wife to go out to socialize and make friends with other married women. The Song Dynasty brocade is unique. She became one of the exceptions among the many ladies in the capital. The noble ladies in the capital not only despised Song Jin but could not help but feel envious. When Qin Chi''s official position was still low, Song Jin did not have to go out to socialize or please other ladies at banquets, unlike them who always had to please people with higher status than them for their husbands. Song Jin doesn''t need it now, Qin Qi''an has become a second-grade official. It won''t be long before Qin Chi will probably give a memorial. Song Jin will soon skip the third-grade lady and become the second-grade imperial wife. There are very few married women of the same age and higher status than her in the capital. How can you not make people jealous? At this time, Song Jin, who was being talked about, was moving to a new home with her children. Niu Niu came over and saw the beautiful new home. Her eyes were bright. She raised her little head and asked, "Mother, the new home is so beautiful. Is it really mine?" "Yes, it was a gift from Your Majesty." Song Jin replied with a warm smile. Niuniu giggled and said, "Who is your majesty?" "Your Majesty is the most noble person in the world." Song Jin knew how old the child was, and there were some things that should be taught, otherwise he would be in trouble if he took him out and bumped into the nobleman. Niu Niu smiled happily and said, "Your Majesty gave me a house. He is a good man." Song Jin smiled slightly and said, "Yes, he is a good person." Since the house was a gift from Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty, there was no need to worry about anyone seeking trouble because the house was not in compliance with the rules. You must know that even if you are a second-rank official in the court, there are certain regulations in your house. This house was once occupied by the county prince. If Qin Chi were to live there, some buildings would inevitably violate regulations. Old Li Tou asked the craftsmen to cover it up a little so that it would not be obvious, and did not let the craftsmen destroy the original pattern. Its only been half an hour since I arrived at my new home. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Niuniu was going crazy, running around the house, and disappeared after a while. Xiaoyu couldn''t keep up. Song Jin had no choice but to let Qin Qi take care of him. Song Jin was packing things in the house, and from time to time the little girl''s laughter could be heard outside. On the side is Mu Ting helping to clean up. Song Jin asked again: "Mu Ting, where is Sanlang?" "Not back yet." Mu Ting replied. Song Jin asked again: "Have you given him any news?" "He went. I wrote a letter yesterday. However, I heard that he went to the dock. I wonder if he can make it back today." "Oh, I see." The house in Cuihua Hutong is small and cannot accommodate many people. Sanlang took the initiative to live in Jifang Pharmacy in Xicheng with Dr. Jing and others. Xing Lun came to the capital recently and was on a boat at the dock. Sanlang knew the news and went to help. Qin Chi has had a lot of things happen recently. I couldn''t care about him for a while. "Sister-in-law! I''m back!" From a distance, I heard Saburo''s voice. Song Jin was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled and said: "This person comes back without mentioning it. Fortunately, I didn''t say anything bad about him." "It''s true." Mu Ting also laughed. Song Jin got up and walked outside. When he went out, he saw in the courtyard. Sanlang picked up Niu Niu and lifted her up high, making the little girl giggle and her little face turned red. There was another person standing next to him. It''s Xing Lun who doesn''t look too conspicuous. When he was young, Xing Lun didn''t have a high sense of presence. He had been practicing outside for many years. It seemed that he could restrain his aura if he wanted to, so it was easy for people to ignore him. But if you look carefully, you will feel that he does not look like a businessman, but like a scholar, elegant and calm. In fact, he has been studying when he had time these past few years. Not only the imperial examination books, he also read a lot of miscellaneous books. Astronomy, geography, and all kinds of books. When traveling around, my only hobby was collecting various kinds of books. Chapter 381 mutual suspicion Chapter 381 Mutual suspicion "What are you doing here? Come inside quickly." Song Jin greeted people and then looked at Xing Lun, "Alun is here too. My family is very big. I will leave a yard for you." After hearing this, Xing Lun pursed his lips and smiled, and gave a half salute to Song Jin, "Then I will be disrespectful." "Oh, Brother Lun, I''ll live with you." Sanlang jumped over again and looked at Xing Lun with shining eyes and unabashed admiration. After spending some time with Xing Lun, Sanlang was impressed by him and decided to wait for the right time and ask his sister-in-law to allow him to go on a business trip with Xing Lun. He thinks running a business is a good job and suits him very well. As soon as Sanlang said this, Xing Lun did not refuse. Next, Sanlang went to see his second nephew with Niu Niu in his arms. Xing Lun stayed behind and went to the study room with Song Jin. They still had some things to talk about in private and it was not suitable for outsiders to be present. Mu Ting went to bring Xing Lun a bowl of hot tea. The tea was put down and the people left. Song Jin asked how Xing Lun was doing recently. Xing Lun said gently: "It''s very good. How is your boss? Are you able to adapt to life in Beijing?" "This is not my first time in the capital, so there is nothing I can''t adapt to." Song Jin never thought about it. Isnt life like this? Now she rarely thinks about her past life. Her only obsession is probably to find her family, but finding her family is not something she can achieve just by thinking about it. Xing Lun then chatted with Song Jin about business matters. For example, after the Liu family was defeated, the Jifang caravan did not have to worry. And Song Jitao started spreading the prescription medicine again. Since there is no pressure from the Liu family, business is pretty good. This time Xing Lun went to the city to deliver medicinal materials to the drug store. Hearing that Sanlang was going to Song Jin''s new house, he came with Sanlang on the pretext of recognizing the door, and also gave him a congratulatory gift. Xing Lun hesitated for a moment, and then said: "The Zhang family''s malice comes out of nowhere, and I can''t find out the reason. I have never interacted with the Zhang family before." There is no past and present, let alone offending. Song Jin knew that Qin Chi was about to deal with the Zhang family. Since the matter had not yet been completed, it was difficult to talk about it. He just said: "Don''t worry about the Zhang family''s affairs. They won''t be able to stay around for long." It is estimated that there are still a few days before the memorial from the prefect of Huai''an will arrive in the capital. Then, Song Jin thought of the reward from Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty, "How about your majesty''s inscription?" "I''m looking for a master with good skills. I plan to spend a lot of money to make a plaque and hang it in the shop. I also found the best embroiderer in Huai''an to embroider it into a banner and hang it on the merchant ships. Every merchant ship must hang it." Xing Lun smiled when he thought about this. Get rid of the frustration of being a businessman in the past. In the future, who will dare to cause trouble for Jifang when they do business outside under the banner of Emperor Mingcheng? If there is a chance, Xing Lun would like to hook up with Emperor Mingcheng and share some of his profits with him. Xing Lun began to think about the future. When Song Jin heard his description, he thought it was a good move, "It will get better and better in the future." Xing Lun chuckled and looked at her with soft eyebrows. Whats going to get better? Suddenly, a tall figure stepped outside the door. Qin Chi came in with a smile. Xing Lun lowered his head and closed his eyes. He quickly stood up and saluted Qin Chi. Qin Chi returned a half salute. "Brother Xing is here. Was it a smooth journey?" Qin Chi greeted with a smile. Xing Lun said respectfully: "Everything is fine." The two exchanged polite greetings. Xing Lun let Mu Ting lead him down to the small courtyard prepared for him and Sanlang. Song Jin stood up and walked towards Qin Chi, looked at the sky outside, and saw that the afternoon had just passed halfway. She asked with a little surprise: "Ms. sir, why are you coming back so early today?" "Didn''t I say that I''m moving today? I specially put today''s Things are done, come back early." Qin Chi is naturally not just as simple as coming back early. Except for a trip home. He also asked Lao Li to go to the palace, that is, the palace of Wang Shilang, and swaggered over to deliver a post. The news immediately reached the ears of Zhang Shilang. Zhang Shilang had been waiting impatiently for the past few days. When he heard that Qin Chi''s people actually went to deliver a post to Wang Shilang, he asked the people outside: "Did they deliver it to our house?" "Not yet." The person who answered hesitated, "The man went to Wang Shilang''s house, handed a note to the concierge and left. He did not come to Zhang''s house." Does this mean you wont come to Zhang Mansion? Zhang Shilang was worried, wondering if Wang Shilang had secretly surrendered to Qin Chi, which would be very unfavorable to him. This idea seemed to have taken root in his heart, and the roots were getting deeper and deeper. This is a common problem among officials, being suspicious. Not only him, but also Wang Shilang received Qin Chi''s post and checked it repeatedly. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Just a very simple post. He just felt it was unusual. But he thought about it and couldn''t figure out what was different. This post was not an invitation, but a visit, and it was handwritten by Qin Chi. Anyone who knows etiquette will send a visiting card to a certain house in advance so that the host family can be mentally prepared, instead of rushing to the door and catching the host family off guard. Wang Shilang couldn''t understand. At the same time, he stopped thinking about it and asked the housekeeper: "Did the Qin family send a message to Zhang Shilang''s house?" "That''s not clear." The housekeeper went to find someone to inquire, and when he came back, he reported to Wang Shilang that the Qin family had not sent a message to the Zhang family. Wang Shilang stood up suddenly, "He is, is he thinking..." After understanding Qin Chi''s intention, he sat down helplessly and couldn''t help but smile bitterly. This is an obvious plan! According to Zhang Shilang''s suspicious temperament, he must be suspected of secretly compromising with Qin Qian. And it was even more impossible for him to tell Zhang Shilang that he had not reached an agreement with Qin Qi''an. What''s more, they used to fight against each other, and their relationship was not that good. Even if Wang Shilang went to tell him, Zhang Shilang might not believe him. On the contrary, he might be even more wary of him. "Qin Qian, Qin Qian, I really belong to you." Wang Shilang knew that his "illness" should be cured, so he said to the steward on the side, "Qin Shangshu will come to visit tomorrow. We have to sweep the bed to greet him and let the people in the house pay attention to him. We can''t neglect our distinguished guest." "Yes, sir." The butler responded respectfully and hurriedly retreated. Wang Shilang turned back and stared at the visiting note on the table, with anger burning in his eyes, but he was helpless. The news in the palace of Wang Shilang quickly reached the ears of Zhang Shilang. Zhang Shilang''s face became even more gloomy, and he asked the chief attendant on the side: "Is there still no one from the Qin family to deliver the post?" "Back to Master, not yet." Chang Sui quickly answered with fear. Mr. Zhang waved his hand again, "Go to the concierge and keep watch. As soon as there is a message from the Qin family, report it to me immediately." Originally, according to his expectations, Qin Chi was supposed to visit two days ago. Now people don''t stop coming, and they only send messages to Wang Shilang. What does Qin Qi''an want to do? Chapter 382 Morning meeting meeting Chapter 382 The tit-for-tat confrontation at the court meeting How would the two ministers react? Qin Chi probably had a guess, but their attempts to make things difficult didn''t seem very clever to him. As long as he kept his composure and had a little contact with one party, they would guess and be suspicious of each other without him doing anything else. Too lazy to pay attention to the two of them, Qin Chi was accompanying Song Jin to choose someone at home. After Old Li Tou finished delivering the post, he also brought a group of people back to his home, including the rough messenger''s wife and maid, as well as two nurturing mothers, maids and servants. It was sent to Song Jin for use. Song Jin chose a nun to teach Niu Niu, and then chose two little maids for her, who could usually help Xiaoyu. She chose two people to serve her. Mrs. Huang was the mother in charge and took care of her youngest son. Qin Chi picked two more errand boys to wait. As the house gets bigger, there are more people to clean. Picked a few more. A total of a dozen people were selected. Lao Litou said in front of his servants: "These people will use it first, try it for a while, keep the one that works well, and replace it with another one if it doesn''t work." These words were undoubtedly knocking these people. "Okay, excuse me, Uncle Li." Song Jin accepted his favor, "Uncle Li also chooses a few errands? You don''t have to work so hard with your husband all the time." "Mrs. Lao is concerned. I have a hard life. If I don''t follow the young master, I will feel uncomfortable." Old Li Tou smiled. Can he say this is his duty? Who doesnt want to live comfortably? But he was ordered to stay with the young master. If he really wanted to rest, only Qin Chi or the prince and the prince would speak up. However, Lao Litou was also in love with Song Jin. He knew Song Jin had good intentions. Then Lao Li Tou and Song Jin talked about the fire in the new residence. Qin Chi meant that it would not be a big deal, just a few tables and invite some close people. Song Jin has almost no contact with his relatives. The only representative is Xing Lun. Relatives of the Qin family are not here either. Among the invited people are students and colleagues that Qin Chi knows. After being an official for so long, I really dont have many colleagues that I am familiar with. Some people with real connections cannot contact him openly and need to avoid suspicion. Qin Chi and Song Jin thought about it over and over again, but still couldn''t decide on the list. I only invited Lu Yanji and Lu Baizhou, but I was worried that they would be too conspicuous. It would not be a good thing to be too close to him at this time. Inviting Yan Xianqing and others was also afraid of being suspected of forming a clique for personal gain. Song Jin simply suggested: "My lord, why don''t you post directly to colleagues you know in the Hanlin Academy, Dali Temple and the Ministry of Industry, regardless of their official position, just those who have worked with you before." "Are you inviting everyone you know?" Qin Chi raised his eyebrows and looked at Song Jin. Song Jin smiled politely, "This way no one will read your book and say that you are forming a clique for personal gain." "Hahaha" Qin Chi laughed brightly, "But this is no small treat." "My husband has not been an official for a long time. I did the math and it actually doesn''t take more than a few tables." Song Jin estimated that more than a dozen people would come. Qin Chi said helplessly: "Madam, you must have forgotten that whenever there is a celebration in the family of a high-ranking and powerful person, even if it is not publicized. If someone hears about it, they will send a congratulatory gift." Song Jin had forgotten. He forgot that Qin Chi, who was sitting in front of him, was already considered to be of high authority. It''s not that she doesn''t understand. It''s because her mentality hasn''t changed yet, and her mother-in-law taught her the same things in the past. After Song Jin was stunned for a moment, he quickly regained his composure and said seriously: "I''m sorry, sir, I was negligent in this matter. So the people who are invited will most likely bring their wives with them, and there may also be some Junior will attend and I will make arrangements." There are separate seats for men and women at the banquet. A separate place must be chosen for the ladies'' banquet, and married and unmarried female relatives must be entertained separately. Song Jin looked at Qin Chi again, "Let your husband entertain the male guests. If there are unmarried young masters, you can also ask Sanlang to greet them." "My lady has thought very carefully." Qin Chi only hoped that not many people would come. In the next two days, Qin Chi sent posts one by one to his familiar colleagues in the Hanlin Academy, Dali Temple and the Ministry of Industry. In order to avoid letting others spend money, in fact, to avoid being spotted by the censor and saying that he took the opportunity to accept bribes, he solemnly stated in the post that it was an ordinary banquet and no gifts were accepted. He asked the other party to come over and have a simple meal, and he could also bring his wife and children to add to the house. Just popularity. This approach is understandable. Many people can relate. This is mostly the practice of clean officials among civil servants. This has given Qin Chi a good reputation. At least he is not arrogant after he succeeds. There is no shortage of people in the world who are humble and polite before becoming famous, but after becoming famous, they become arrogant and arrogant to the point of forgetfulness. The only thing that is puzzling, or criticized, is that Qin Chi did not send a message to Zhang Shilang. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Whether intentionally or unintentionally, he just missed Zhang Shilang''s invitation. You must know that Qin Chi even sent posts to several chief executives of the Yu Heng Division of the Ministry of Industry, which shows that he is not someone who flatters the superior and despises the inferior. It is precisely because of his non-status-oriented way of posting that most people don''t think Qin Chi is bad. Instead, he began to guess whether it was Zhang Shilang''s problem. Because Wang Shilang, who was at the same level as Zhang Shilang, had received the invitation early, and it was Qin Chi who personally delivered it to his house. Such a comparison revealed Zhang Shilang again. Wang Shilang was speechless about this matter. Mr. Zhang was so angry that he smashed several sets of expensive tea sets. Qin Chi never said anything bad about Shilang Zhang before. Without saying a single bad word, others seemed to see his grievances. He looked very calm, but even Qin Chi didn''t know how others could see that he was wronged? Has anyone ever thought that not speaking ill of others in front of others is just because of their good upbringing? The day before the party. It happens to be the Great Court Meeting. Qin Chi accidentally met Wang Shilang and Zhang Shilang who came to court. The two of them pretended to be sick, so it was difficult for them to miss court meetings. Otherwise, Emperor Mingcheng would probably ask about it, and they would be the ones in trouble. You can take advantage of illness here at the Ministry of Industry, but you can''t. Pretending to be sick is tantamount to deceiving the emperor when you are facing the emperor. Its okay if I dont pursue it or hold on to it. If someone pursues the two of them, they will have to shed their skin. Qin Chi walked over with a smile on his face and asked politely: "Shilang Wang, Shilang Zhang, are you two feeling better?" "Much better, much better, Lord Lao Qin is worried about me." Wang Shilang responded awkwardly. Zhang Shilang pretends to be good in front of others, "I didn''t expect Mr. Qin to care about our health even though he has so many things to do." "Shilang Zhang, be careful what you say. Your Majesty is the one who takes care of everything, not a mere minister like me." Qin Chi corrected Shilang Zhang seriously. Zhang Shilang suddenly slapped himself in the mouth, "Oh, I almost said something wrong. I hope Mr. Qin won''t blame me." "Who am I to blame Shilang Zhang? This is the first time I''ve seen you since I took up the post at the Ministry of Industry. It makes you feel more cordial." Qin Chi also had a knife in his mouth. Emperor Ming Cheng has not come yet. The officials on the side watched a good show. None of the civil and military officials in the palace knew that because Qin Chi was parachuted to the Ministry of Works, the two ministers had been sick and recuperating at home. This gave Qin Chi enough power that Qin Chi was now not exposed to the core affairs of the Ministry of Works. Many people are waiting to see Qin Chi''s jokes. Chapter 383 Wen Ge Lao Chapter 383 Mr. Wen Ge Someone asked angrily: "Master Qin is already a minister, and he must not be too small. Don''t try to narrow the road. Mr. Zhang is also a senior after all. It is better for young people to respect him." Qin Chi looked at the speaker. He is a veteran minister who holds a position in the cabinet. The person standing with him is Li Huarong. In the early days of the Great Xia Dynasty, the position of prime minister was established. Later, because the prime minister had too much power, Emperor Taizu abolished the prime minister system. A cabinet of bachelors was formed to assist the emperor. The number of cabinet members was very small, usually between one and seven people. As time went by, the power of the cabinet gradually increased, and the power of the chief minister of the cabinet could even suppress the six ministries and became the actual administrative center. Although he does not have the title of prime minister, he actually has the power of prime minister. When the late emperor was in office, the dispute between the chief minister and his assistant led to serious conflicts in the cabinet. After Emperor Mingcheng ascended the throne, he curbed the development of the cabinet, leaving only three cabinet members. Li Huarong occupied one place. Mr. Wen Ge, who had criticized Qin Chi just now, took one of the seats. The other one was very low-key and said he was ill at home most of the time. Emperor Ming Cheng would only ask him to enter the palace when something happened. It''s more like taking advantage of the name and not caring about things. Mr. Wen Ge said again: "I heard that you sent posts to colleagues in the Hanlin Academy, Dali Temple and the Ministry of Industry, but you missed Mr. Zhang. Isn''t this exclusion?" Qin Chi responded in surprise, "I don''t agree with what Mr. Wen Ge said. I also didn''t send a message to you, nor to the many adults present, nor to His Majesty. According to the logic of your words, I was excluding Is it unreasonable for you to exclude your lords? "You, you use strong words to make sense." Mr. Wen Ge glared at Qin Chi angrily. Qin Chi looked helpless, "Okay, you are the elder. Whatever you say is what it is. I can''t argue with you. In that case, you will probably accuse me of disrespecting the elders." The question is, is your attitude respectful? But everyone saw that it was inexplicably relieved. Many officials in the DPRK and China could not stand Mr. Wen Ge''s temper for a long time and would not deal with him unless necessary. Mr. Wen Ge is a pedantic and rigid person. He must follow the rules passed down by his ancestors in everything, especially his reputation. It is said that when his eldest daughter was attending a banquet, she almost fell down but was helped by a man. At that time, his daughter was getting married next month. When Mr. Wen Ge learned about it, he expressed his intention to break off the engagement, saying that his daughter was already unclean. The fianc said he didnt mind. Unexpectedly, Mr. Wenge insisted on breaking off the engagement. He forced his daughter to either stay with Qingdeng forever or commit suicide to keep her innocence. His wife was so angry that she took her daughter to a nunnery to stay for a long time, but she has not come back yet. However, Mr. Wen Ge''s general style has been praised by many people, which has made his reputation even better. Qin Chi couldn''t understand this kind of people. Obviously, it was at the expense of a daughter of the Wen family that the good reputation of Mr. Wen Ge and the Wen family was achieved. Because since this incident came out, there has been an endless stream of people coming to ask for marriage from the daughter of the Wen family. It is true that girls from the Wen family have no worries about getting married. When Mr. Zhang saw Mr. Wen Ge speaking for him, he immediately jumped out and said, "Master Qin, this is your fault. Mr. Wen Ge is a highly respected man. Please show some respect. You don''t respect me." I''m nothing, after all, I''m just a minister, not as good as you, Mr. Qin, but Mr. Wen Ge has dedicated his life to our Daxia Dynasty, how dare you?" "Master Zhang!" Qin Chi interrupted him sharply, "How did I disrespect Mr. Wen Ge just now? You can point it out, but it''s just because I didn''t send an invitation to the Zhang family? But, the reason why I didn''t send you a message "Don''t you have any idea? Do you want me to say it in public?" "What do you mean?" Zhang Shilang''s heart skipped a beat, and he had a vague feeling of bad premonition. Qin Chi said sadly: "Master Zhang, why do you have to pretend? You and I know it all." Many people were confused after hearing this. But one thing is clear, there is something going on between the Qin family and the Zhang family. This time even Mr. Wen Ge fell silent. "The Emperor has arrived!" The **** and **** in charge of rituals sang loudly. Many ministers in the palace were halfway through watching the show, and they quickly straightened their postures and returned to their seats to stand up. Qin Chi also stood in his place. Today is Qin Chi''s first day in court since he became Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and he is standing quite close to the front. Among a group of elderly ministers, there stood a handsome young man like him, who stood out no matter how he looked at him. When Emperor Ming Cheng came out, he glanced at Qin Chi several times. When Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty sat down on the dragon throne. All civil and military officials saluted almost unanimously. After completing a set of court etiquette, Emperor Ming Cheng glanced at the ministers who were standing with their heads bowed below, "My dear friends, why are you so quiet today? When I came over, I heard a dispute here from a distance. What is it? Tell me what it is. Let me listen." It was quiet again. No one answered below. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Emperor Mingcheng looked at the emperor''s eldest grandson, "Tell me, what were they talking about before I came here?" Helian Mian looked embarrassed. What does this make him say? Are you saying that Mr. Wen Ge is meddling in other people''s business, or that Mr. Zhang wants to make things difficult for Qin Qi''an? Or is it that Qin Qi''an''s retort left the other party speechless and did not fall behind at all? He didn''t want to offend Mr. Wen Ge, and he wanted to win over Qin Chi, but he wanted to avoid offending both parties, and the answer might not satisfy Emperor Mingcheng. This requires some quick thinking. Just when Helianmian decided to retell the conversation between the three people in an impartial way... "Your Majesty, the old minister and Mr. Qin just had a few quarrels. It was not a big deal." Mr. Wen Ge took the lead to speak up and said with a wry smile, "I am old and can''t understand the young people''s thoughts. " Emperor Mingcheng glanced at several people. Qin Chi''s face showed confusion at the right time, but he refrained from refuting in public. Refuting at this time, no matter whether he is right or wrong, will not give a good impression or perception. For example, being young and energetic, aggressive and aggressive, or being unreasonable and unforgiving will be blamed on him. No matter how you say it, Mr. Wen Ge is an elder. Qin Chi could only swallow this secret loss. The best way to deal with it is silence. Silence is not the default. Silence is also a means of counterattack. Because its not like no one saw what happened just now. Some people may be led astray for a while, but when they think about it later, they will know what happened. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty is about the same age as Mr. Wen Ge. He doesn''t like to hear what Mr. Wen Ge says about whether he is old or not? Therefore, Mr. Wen Ge thought that Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty would ask questions. Emperor Mingcheng''s eyes expressed auspiciousness. Ji Xiang immediately took a step forward and said to the civil and military officials below: "If you have something to do, please leave the court." "I have something to report." The one who stood up was a military commander and handed over the memorial. What the military general wanted to report was that the soldiers of several military camps had already prepared their troops and were just waiting for Emperor Ming Cheng to issue the order to leave for the northwest immediately. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty immediately issued an order. This matter was decided by Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty earlier. The Northwest fought a victorious battle, but it was a miserable victory. Tens of thousands of soldiers have been lost. The new barracks led by this general have trained the people, and now they are sent to the battlefield to replenish their fighting strength. The 100,000 soldiers who have just arrived will not go to the battlefield immediately, but they will be responsible for some logistical tasks, such as cleaning the battlefield, transporting military supplies, etc. Chapter 384 Excellent in both singing and composition Chapter 384 Excellent in both singing and composition National affairs were discussed in the main hall. The earlier verbal dispute seemed trivial and was quickly forgotten. Most of what the officials talked about was the war in the northwest, as well as this year''s reduction in grain production and taxes in the south. Some courtiers raised some difficult questions in public. Everyone expresses their opinions and seeks solutions. More than an hour passed like this. However, most of the questions were thrown to the Ministry of Finance. The reason was that he asked the Ministry of Finance for money. They ask me for money, money, money! Who can I ask for money from? I cant give you that much money even if I take my life. Emperor Mingcheng had a headache from the noise. This is almost the norm. In the end, the argument was shelved because of lack of money. At this moment, a young **** took out a stack of memorials, handed them to Ji Xiang''s hand, and placed them on the dragon case. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty let the people below him quarrel. He opened the top memorial. After reading it, I saw Zhang Shilang with a bad look in his eyes. The courtiers below noticed something was wrong, and the comments gradually became less frequent. Some officials also followed Emperor Mingcheng''s gaze and secretly glanced at Shilang Zhang. They all speculated whether Shilang Zhang had done something to anger Emperor Mingcheng. Zhang Shilang also discovered something was wrong. Who is your Majesty staring at below? If he hadn''t been an official for so many years, he would probably have been forced to kneel down and beg for mercy under the oppressive gaze of Emperor Ming Cheng. Now there is still a trace of luck in his heart, praying that the person Emperor Mingcheng is looking at is not him. It''s the officials in front of or behind him. However, he was going to be disappointed after all. "Ministry of Industry, Minister Zhang, Zhang Zhilu." Emperor Mingcheng''s words broke the silence of the hall, and also broke the hope in Zhang Shilang''s heart. Zhang Shilang stood up in fear, lifted up the hem of his robe with one hand and knelt down, "I am here." "Cunyi Bank is your Zhang family''s property?" Emperor Ming Cheng said this again. All the courtiers present were confused. Could it be that the Zhang family''s bank had done something? Emperor Ming Cheng didn''t look simply angry, he felt like a storm was coming. It seemed that Emperor Mingcheng''s next words would have someone drag Shilang Zhang out and behead him. Emperor Ming Cheng really wants to kill people now. How long had it been since he had just rewarded Jesus? He was slapped in the face by the Zhang family so quickly. Where would his imperial majesty be when news of this incident spread? ! Zhang Shilang replied with fear: "Your Majesty, Cunyi Bank is the property of the Zhang family, and Cunyi is the title bestowed by the great ancestor." The next moment, a memorial dropped in front of Zhang Shilang. "Read it yourself, and then give me an explanation. I really want to know how dissatisfied your Zhang family is with me?" Emperor Ming Cheng said calmly and powerfully. When Shilang Zhang heard this, he thought it was okay and was so frightened that he kowtowed repeatedly, "I am definitely not dissatisfied with Your Majesty. I have always been loyal to you. The sun and the moon can teach you." Emperor Mingcheng did not respond. After Zhang Shilang begged for mercy, he still picked up the memorial on the ground with trembling hands, opened it and looked at the contents. Just after looking at it once, Mr. Zhang''s face suddenly turned pale. Then, he spoke righteously and loudly: "Your Majesty, the content above is pure slander. Ever since I followed Taizu to conquer the country, my Zhang family has never had any second thoughts about the Great Xia Dynasty. What''s more, the Zhang family has grown up in this land for generations. My deep affection for this land is no less than that of anyone present. I, Zhang Zhilu, dare to swear by my ancestors in front of me. If the Zhang family has any intention of betraying Daxia, I will be willing to cut off my descendants and never be reincarnated." This is a serious statement. Some people believe it, some people don''t. But he is also a ruthless person who can swear by his ancestors and descendants. He was not afraid that his ancestors would be so angry that the coffin boards could no longer hold them. Emperor Ming Cheng''s attitude softened somewhat, "Okay, I believe you for the time being." When Mr. Zhang breathed a sigh of relief... Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty suddenly asked: "After Jifang donated tens of thousands of stones of food, the Zhang family began to suppress Jifang. Is this possible?" "Your Majesty, please forgive me." Zhang Shilang kowtowed and said with choked sobs: "My elders and parents died young, and my family has been separated for a long time. Since I entered the court and became an official, I have no family to rely on. I have always worked conscientiously and never interfered in my family''s business. " "But I don''t believe it when it says that the Zhang family suppressed Ji Fang. Back then, when we assisted Taizu in conquering the world, the Zhang family saved a lot of money, but who in the capital doesn''t know that there are many descendants of the Zhang family, and every now and then, another unscrupulous descendant is born. , The family business has been almost destroyed. Among the direct descendants, there is only one Cunyi bank left, and its business is half-finished. " "Now that the Zhang family has long been in decline, how can we suppress anyone?" Zhang Shilang burst into tears, but he still cried without making a sound. The act of wiping away his tears was very inspiring. It''s like being stabbed in a sad place. Qin Chi stood still. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! After hearing what Zhang Shilang said, he just wanted to say that life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills. First, he made an oath, and then mentioned that his ancestors fought against Taizu, which showed that the Zhang family was loyal to the Xia Dynasty. Then he talked about the decline of the family, and cried sadly. Tears are not just a woman''s weapon. Sometimes when a man cries, it touches people''s hearts even more. No, the anger that originally arose in Emperor Ming Cheng''s heart when he saw the memorial from the prefect of Huai''an has now been reduced by half without even realizing it. Then, Emperor Mingcheng looked at Qin Chi. Before Emperor Ming Cheng spoke. Qin Chi stood up first and said decisively: "Your Majesty, I have something to say." "That''s right." Emperor Mingcheng said. Qin Chi spoke clearly and said in a calm tone: "I think what Shi Lang said is reasonable. In order to prove the innocence of the Zhang family, I suggest that your majesty hand over the matter to Jin Yiwei for investigation. Jin Yiwei is your majesty''s people, so there is no need to worry about being investigated. , who dares to deceive the superiors and bend the law for personal gain? Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty has not yet spoken. Zhang Shilang''s body was shaken. Many officials in the main hall wanted to say something: Don''t offend Qin Qian if you offend anyone. This man is really cruel! If Jin Yiwei is asked to investigate, he will find out a lot of things, but no one present believes that the Zhang family can withstand the investigation. Mr. Wen Ge frowned and said, "Even a trivial matter will trouble the Jin Yiwei. Is there no one available to me in the great Xia Dynasty? To put it bluntly, this matter is just a competition among merchants." These words made Emperor Ming Cheng hesitate, who was about to agree. This matter can be said to be big or small. Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty thought it was a big deal. Isn''t it a big deal that he was embarrassed? However, in the eyes of these veterans, it is a trivial matter. Qin Chi spoke slowly again: "Mr. Wenge, what you said is wrong. Just now Zhang Shilang swore that he would not betray Daxia. Even if I haven''t read the content of the memorial, I can tell that it is not simple. It has already affected the safety of the country. Okay, isnt it a big deal? Mr. Wen Ge looked at Qin Chi sharply. After reaching his current position, no junior dared to refute his words. Qin Chi has now undoubtedly become the person Wen Ge Lao dislikes. Those who do not respect their elders are useless. Chapter 385 Wang Shilang relented Chapter 385: Wang Shilang relents I couldn''t stand the old official Wen Ge, so I secretly screamed, "Okay." This old thing is finally exhausted today. Emperor Mingcheng felt relieved and immediately said: "What Qin Aiqing said is absolutely true. This matter will be handed over to Jin Yiwei for investigation." Immediately ordered the Jin Yiwei commander to investigate. Wen Ge''s face looked ugly. Mr. Zhang''s face was earthy. After resigning from the court, he left in a hurry, not caring about what others thought of him, and even forgot the proper etiquette. Mr. Wen Ge passed by Qin Chi, snorted coldly, tossed his sleeves and left. Qin Chi looked confused. Having just become Minister of the Ministry of Industry, he has a lot of things to do, and he doesn''t want to have a conflict with a cabinet minister, but he is not afraid if someone insists on getting in trouble with him. Xia Wei came over and said with a straight face: "Qin Qi''an, I thought we had some friendship, but it turns out you didn''t invite me for a drink when there was a family celebration. You''re not being honest." "It''s rare that Mr. Xia thinks highly of me. It''s just water and wine. I don''t care enough! I will send the invitation to your mansion later." Qin Chi immediately apologized. Qin Chi and Xia Wei walked out side by side. The officials who paid attention to the two of them were wondering, when did Xia Wei and Qin Chi become friends? In the past, Xia Wei and Qin Chi occasionally spoke a few words, but the number of times was limited. When Qin Chi offended Mr. Wen Ge today, Xia Wei chose to stand with Qin Chi to talk and walked out of the hall together, which meant something different. Xia Wei looked at the sky, "Qi''an knows that Minister Zhang wants to go up, and he caught up with Mr. Wen Ge earlier." "Thank you, Mr. Xia, for informing me." Qin Chi suddenly realized. No wonder Mr. Wen Ge would speak for Mr. Zhang. The reason is actually here. "Hey, don''t call me sir. I call you Qian, and you can call me Zong Yu." Xia Wei said with rare kindness. Zongyu is Xia Weis name. After reaching his status, not many people call him by his name. Qin Chi took advantage of the situation and cupped his hands and said: "Brother Zong Yu, I''m polite." "Haha, not bad, not bad." Xia Wei was no longer depressed about being pushed for money in the main hall, and walked out with Qin Chi while chatting. Just walked for a while. The two heard someone behind them calling Qin Chi. "Qin Shangshu, please stay!" Those who come in a hurry are auspicious. Qin Chi and Xia Wei stopped almost at the same time. Qin Chi took a step forward, raised his hands and said politely to Jixiang: "Eunuch Jixiang, why did you stop me?" "His Majesty wants to see you." Ji Xiang answered with a slight bow. Qin Chi turned sideways and looked at Xia Wei. Xia Wei said quickly: "Go quickly, we will chat when we have time, don''t keep His Majesty waiting." "Brother Zong Yu, walk slowly." Qin Chi cupped his hands and said. Xia Wei also raised his hand, turned around and strode out. Qin Chi followed Ji Xiang towards the main hall where Emperor Ming Cheng was. Along the way, he met a few palace people passing by in a hurry, and occasionally saw patrolling guards, walking behind in a deserted place. Qin Chi said: "Congratulations to Eunuch Jixiang for becoming the Chief Ceremony Supervisor." "Qin Shangshu is welcome." Ji Xiang''s attitude was still respectful. Qin Chi pretended to be chatting and asked, "I wonder what your Majesty wants to see me for this time?" "I guess it has something to do with the memorial from Huai''an." Ji Xiang was no longer a reminder, but a clear reminder. He smiled and said, "Your Majesty''s mood seems to be acceptable. Qin Shangshu need not be too nervous." After hearing this, Qin Chi felt confident and thanked Ji Xiang again. As auspicious reminder. Emperor Mingcheng was in a good mood and asked Qin Chi to ask about Jifang. Emperor Mingcheng did not hide the fact that he knew that the boss behind Jifang was Song Jin. It was an ordinary inquiry, but Qin Chi knew it was not simple. Under calmness, Qin Chi cheered up. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty asked Qin Chi to stay and have dinner with him. Qin Chi naturally did not refuse. The person accompanying him was not only Qin Chi, but also the emperor''s eldest grandson. The three of them ate together. When they were almost done eating, Emperor Mingcheng suddenly asked: "Qi''an, Jifang''s contribution to the donation is not small. Why didn''t you keep it for yourself instead of giving it to the prefect of Huai''an?" "Your Majesty, Ji Fang is not my property." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi said calmly, "Not to mention that my wife''s donation was a last-minute idea. She has never thought about getting famous through it. As a husband, I naturally have to respect her wishes. Besides, why should a real man not have the opportunity to make meritorious deeds? So does I. You have dignity and dont want to be accused of being a softie in the future. "puff-" Helian Mian on the side just took a sip of tea and spit it out. Hearing Qin Chi''s last words, he lost his composure as expected. He quickly confessed to Emperor Mingcheng, and a palace maid stepped forward to clean up the matter and gave him a wet handkerchief to wipe it with. Emperor Mingcheng was serious at first, then suddenly laughed, "So the prefect of Huai''an got a big advantage." "That''s right." Qin Chi agreed. Emperor Mingcheng asked again: "How is it in the Ministry of Industry? It has been seven or eight days since I took office, but are you still getting used to it?" "Fortunately, my colleagues are very kind. I am sorting out the affairs of the Ministry of Industry. I am still getting familiar with it and haven''t fully mastered it yet, but I think it will be done soon." Qin Chi said steadily. It seems to be really fast. Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty naturally knew that he was sitting on the bench in the Ministry of Industry. The two ministers had never been to the Ministry of Industry before today. Qin Chi was just playing with himself. But Emperor Ming Cheng wanted to ask this question, so Qin Chi could only follow his words. Helianmian is the one who knows the inside story. After hearing the conversation between the two, I almost believed it. However, if you think about it carefully, there is something in it. What Qin Chi said was fast, probably meant it was really fast. Today, the two ministers came to the court meeting. They were supposed to go to the Ministry of Works Yamen to handle matters. They couldn''t go back to the mansion to recuperate. If this happened, they would almost openly break up with Qin Chi. After dining with Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. Qin Chi resigned to him and went to the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry without haste. Entering the office of the Minister, he saw Wang Shilang waiting, but Zhang Shilang was nowhere to be seen. Recalling the hurried departure of Mr. Zhang, Qin Chi thought that he probably had no intention of working now and had to rush home to deal with the pile of things. Zhang Shilang probably didn''t know. Qin Chi had already arranged for people to keep an eye on him. As for whether the Zhang family was connected with the former prince''s influence, it was just his guess, and he had not yet obtained definite evidence. "I have met Mr. Qin." Wang Shilang came forward to greet him with a very respectful attitude. Qin Chi didn''t respond immediately. He walked past Shilang Wang to the desk in his office, then walked around the desk and sat on the chair in a leisurely manner. Shilang Wang''s bending and saluting movements followed Qin Chi''s movements. Turn around. Until the end, he was still facing Qin Chi. Qin Chi understood that this guy probably recognized the reality, "Master Wang, there is no need to be too polite. From now on, we will be colleagues, and I still need to rely on Master Wang in many areas." "What do you say, sir? I will do my best to assist you." This is equivalent to a statement by Wang Shilang. He is a flexible and flexible person. (End of chapter) Chapter 386 Chapter 386 The familys disaster To be honest, Wang Shilang was frightened by what happened at the court meeting. He would not have believed Zhang Shilang''s matter without Qin Chi''s handwriting. Otherwise, how could it be that when they were trying to show off Qin Chi, Shi Lang Zhang would get into big trouble during this period? This is too much of a coincidence. I am used to the intrigues in the officialdom, and I have long since disbelieved that such a coincidence exists in the world. Wang Shilang also received the news. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty summoned Qin Chi after the court meeting and invited Qin Chi to eat. This is a favor that many ministers do not have. It makes people think, could Qin Chi really be the bloodline of Emperor Ming Cheng? If this rumor is true, then... If the Zhang family was involved in the investigation by the Jin Yiwei, Wang Shilang could predict the fate of the Zhang family, and Zhang Shilang''s official career would most likely come to an end. Shilang Wang hopes he behaves better now. Let Qin Chi put aside the past grudges. Qin Chi looked at Wang Shilang with a faint look, paused for a moment and then said: "Master Wang, there is nothing to be nervous about. We are all ministers of the Great Xia Dynasty. As long as we can do our duty well, it will be fine." Wang Shilang understood. This tells him to keep to himself, right? Therefore, Wang Shilang nodded and bowed, "Yes, yes, I will definitely do my job well." Normally speaking, this behavior of being arrogant and respectful is very shameful. It''s just that they are the only two here, and Wang Shilang doesn''t feel too embarrassed. As long as Qin Chi can feel his sincerity, not to mention making him nod and bow, or making him kneel down and kowtow. Qin Chi did not embarrass Wang Shilang. The next thing to do is all business. However, with the help of Wang Shilang, Qin Chi handled official affairs much more smoothly. At the same time, Qin Chi finally stepped into the archives warehouse where important documents are stored. This news seemed to have wings and flew to Zhang Shilang''s ears. Mr. Zhang had no time to care and was rushing to his family. Not only did they want the family to deal with those illegal businesses, but they also urgently wanted to find out why Jifang was suppressed. From the mouth of his confidant Chang Sui, he learned that it was the clan leader''s intention to **** Jifang''s business. Zhang Shilang was furious. Just then, Patriarch Zhang led someone into the house. He hit the visitor with a tea bowl. "Stupid old guy, who gave you the courage to choose this moment to suppress Ji Fang? Don''t you know that Ji Fang has just caught His Majesty''s eyes? That feeling of curiosity has not passed, and you are causing trouble for me?!" Zhang The waiter couldn''t hold back his anger and yelled. The leader of the Zhang family hurried over in a hurry. He was pointed at his nose and scolded before he knew what was going on. He immediately turned cold and said, "Zhang Zhilu, as an official, you don''t take the leader of the clan seriously?" Zhang Shilang was so angry that the veins on his forehead jumped out, and his resentment overwhelmed his reason, "I struggled in the officialdom, trying my best to climb up, and finally got to where I am today. Even if my family didn''t help me, I still have to die. It''s holding me back. I just helped you deal with the trouble before. How much trouble will it cause this time? " "You are a child of the Zhang family, so you are so resentful for making some contribution to the family? Doesn''t the money earned by the family go to your house every year?" Patriarch Zhang was also so angry that he blew his beard and stared. Several clan elders on the side also became dissatisfied with Zhang Shilang. They accused Zhang Shilang one by one and tried their best to take advantage of him. Zhang Shilang sneered, "The Zhang family''s death is imminent. When the day comes that the family will be confiscated and exterminated, I will wait to see your faces." "What, what do you mean?" The elder of the Zhang family suddenly became speechless. They had received a message saying that it was a matter of life and death for the Zhang family and they were asked to come over to discuss it. But when Shilang Zhang saw them, he scolded them and even dared to throw a tea bowl at the clan leader. I was so angry that I forgot about the real thing. Zhang Shilang said cheerfully: "The Jin Yiwei will soon find out who is responsible for the Zhang family. Just wait for your death." After serving as an official for many years, Zhang Shilang did not dare to say that his hands were clean. Not to mention how many shady things he had done for the family, the bribes he accepted alone were enough to kill him several times. Qin Qian is really cruel. His Majesty was originally hesitant to minimize the big deal, but Qin Qi''an wanted to get involved. When Minister Zhang told what happened at today''s court meeting, the head of the Zhang family suddenly looked extremely ugly. He sent away the others and asked them to try their best to clean up things at home, leaving Zhang Shilang alone. At this time, Patriarch Zhang did not bother about Minister Zhang''s disrespect, "Now I can only go to one person for help." "Uncle, who should I ask for?" Zhang Shilang''s pupils shrank. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Zhang Shilang''s grandfather was the second in line of succession. Chief Zhang was his uncle and the person who truly controlled the family. After about half an hour. Zhang Shilang followed Clan Chief Zhang out of the city. I went to a village belonging to the Zhang family in the suburbs. This is the ancestral property of the Zhang family. Zhuangzi, the two mountains behind it, and the large lake next to it are all the territory of the Zhang family. Therefore, when Minister Zhang cried about poverty in the court, it was actually a joke in the eyes of those who knew about it. Not long after. Zhang Shilang saw a man wearing a mask, and sitting next to him was an elegant scholar holding a feather fan. Patriarch Zhang saluted respectfully and said eagerly: "Master, please save the Zhang family!" The masked man asked: "What happened?" "Today at the court meeting, the prefect of Huai''an handed over a memorial, saying that our Zhang family suppressed Jifang and were suspected of being spies from other countries. His Majesty asked the Jin Yiwei to investigate the matter." Chief Zhang said while kowtowing. Before the man in the first place could speak, Chief Zhang hurriedly explained, "We didn''t suppress Jifang. Didn''t the master say that he wanted to hoard a batch of medicinal materials? The subordinates did not dare to neglect at all, and immediately asked the younger members of the clan to get started. Someone among them may have robbed Jifang of some business." Patriarch Zhang originally thought that this was not a big deal. Isn''t it normal for people to rob each other when doing business? It was said above that we should stock up on medicinal materials as much as possible. The Zhang family''s previous business did not involve medicinal materials, but suddenly they had to get involved. It was almost impossible to complete the task in a short time through normal channels. In this process, some unfair means cannot be avoided. Jifang has the best resources in the industry, so conflicts are inevitable. The Zhang family not only robbed Jifang''s medicinal materials, but also robbed other small vendors, anyone who was easy to bully. Mr. Yan suddenly asked: "You said Jin Yiwei wants to investigate this matter? Are you going to investigate the Zhang family as well?" "Yes, yes!" Patriarch Zhang replied tremblingly. As if struck by lightning, Mr. Zhang looked fixedly at Mr. Yan. When Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty ascended the throne, he was still studying in the Imperial College. He was very familiar with the rumors about the banquet in Jiangnan, and he had met him several times at the banquet. Later, after the death of the late prince, Yan Jiangnan disappeared, and gradually no one mentioned him again. Thinking of Patriarch Zhang calling the first male lord, he was suddenly shocked and his hands and feet were numb. This grave crime of confiscating a family and exterminating a clan has been confirmed... Chapter 387 Plan failed Chapter 387 The plan failed After hearing that Jinyiwei was going to investigate the Zhang family, Yan Jiangnan recruited his subordinates, "Go and check if there are any suspicious people approaching Zhuangzi, and tell others to be careful and not to relax." The man took the order and left. He Liankai did not stop this. Patriarch Zhang came to his senses and said quickly: "Mr. Yan, I paid attention behind me when I came here, and I didn''t find anyone following me." "It would be strange for you to discover Jin Yiwei''s tracking." Yan Jiangnan was not looking down on the Zhang family. No one knows better than him how much money the Zhang family has. Soon, Patriarch Zhang was slapped in the face. Someone came back to report that there was indeed a suspicious stranger approaching three miles away from Zhuangzi. When their people stopped him, the stranger said he was a nearby villager. Their people in the nearby villages have long been aware of each other, how could they not know each other? There is no doubt that he is here to inquire. When the masked man looked at Patriarch Zhang again, his eyes seemed to be looking at a dead person, "Something that fails to succeed but fails to succeed." "My lord, this subordinate doesn''t know." Patriarch Zhang was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat and his spine felt chilly. The murderous intent spread in the masked man''s eyes. Yan Jiangnan stopped him in time and said, "Someone is following them right now. They haven''t discovered Zhuangzi''s truth yet. It will be very troublesome if someone dies here." Chief Zhang came here to save the Zhang family. After Yan Jiangnan chatted with the two of them, he glanced at Minister Zhang and said with emotion: "You must be Zhilu. When I met you, you were still young. When we meet again after so many years, you are already He is a third-rank official of the imperial court." "Yan, Mr. Yan?" Zhang Shilang''s voice trembled slightly. Yan Jiangnan nodded with a smile. Afterwards, Yan Jiangnan turned his indifferent eyes to Chief Zhang and said calmly: "You leave first, I will ask people to hinder Jin Yiwei''s investigation and try to delay it for some time. When the news from Jianning Mansion reaches the capital, Jin Yiwei will not care. Go to Zhangs house. "Thank you, Mr. Yan. The Zhang family will always remember this kindness." Patriarch Zhang left with Minister Zhang. The whole time, Minister Zhang was in a state of disbelief. On the way back. Two people in a carriage. Clan leader Zhang had long noticed that something was wrong with Zhang Shilang. He didn''t choose to speak just to give him time to adapt. But halfway through the journey, Zhang Shilang still didn''t come back to his senses. "Zhilu." Chief Zhang called with a straight face. Zhang Shilang suddenly came back to his senses and looked sideways at Patriarch Zhang with extremely complicated eyes. Patriarch Zhang sighed, "I know what you are thinking. I am telling you this today to let you understand the family''s situation. The Zhang family has no choice. Ever since the Zhang family took refuge with the prince''s lord, there has been no way out." At first, the Zhang family was not liquidated by Emperor Ming Cheng. Patriarch Zhang also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. But later Yan Jiangnan contacted the Zhang family and asked the Zhang family to work for them secretly. As the saying goes, it is easy to get on the pirate ship, but it is difficult to get off the pirate ship. Yan Jiangnan has enough information to put the Zhang family in danger. The elder of the Zhang clan burst into tears, "If this were not the case, who wouldn''t be happy to live a stable life, and would be willing to risk the wealth and lives of the entire clan?" Zhang Shilang clenched his fists, as if enduring. They must calm down at this time. The spies who were several miles away saw Patriarch Zhang''s carriage returning and hurriedly arranged for someone to report the matter to Qin Chi. "The hot spring village passed down from the Zhang family''s ancestors?" Qin Chi read the Zhang family''s information and recorded the Zhang family''s property. "Can no one get close to it?" Old Man Hong said: "I was stopped three miles away from Zhuangzi. They said they were not allowed to pass through private land. They also asked the spies where they were from and how they got there. The spies said they were nearby villagers. I was arranging for people to continue going. Check out Zhuangzis situation. "No need, bring everyone back." Qin Chi knew that the person they sent to follow him had been exposed. "Forcibly going in to investigate would be a waste of life. There is also a possibility that someone could track us back." Qin Chi never dared to underestimate Yan Jiangnan, who was famous in the capital at that time. He was a natural strategist. He secretly sabotaged the other party''s plans several times, and it was because he was in the dark that Yan Jiangnan couldn''t figure out his origins. It is estimated that Yan Jiangnan is already suspicious of him now. They arranged for people to assassinate him several times, not necessarily to kill him, but also with a sense of temptation. After Qin Chi said this, he added: "We will not interfere in the affairs of the Zhang family. Uncle Hong ordered us to go down and lurk. Wait for my next order." Uncle Hong and others were puzzled by Qin Chi''s actions. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! According to their opinion, it''s best to send someone to lurk in to investigate now and get the definite evidence. As a result, Qin Chi did the exact opposite. Not only did he not arrange for anyone to investigate, he also withdrew all the original people and even made his subordinates hide? However, the young masters order. Uncle Hong and others had doubts, but they just kept it in mind and quickly executed it after leaving. Before dark, the spies who were watching Zhangjiazhuangzi received the news and evacuated. The people below had no doubts about the news from above, and immediately evacuated after hearing the order. As a result, the Jiangnan layout of the dinner party failed. After Patriarch Zhang and Shilang Zhang left, Yan Jiangnan arranged for people to set traps around Zhuangzi, planning to invite you into the urn, but not even a fly appeared. A group of people stood guard all night. Feeding the mosquitoes all night. Yan Jiangnan swayed his feather fan gently and spent the night sipping tea in the quiet room. Until dawn, there was still no news from outside. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, "Who would have thought that in my later years, Yan Jiangnan, I would finally meet my opponent. " There are two maids and servants waiting in the room. The four of them seemed to have not heard what Yan Jiangnan was saying to himself. They lowered their heads and stood aside. When the tea ran out, they quietly went to refill it. He Liankai wore mysterious clothes and strode into the quiet room. He came to the tea table and sat across from Yan Jiangnan. The maid next to him immediately brought him new tea. "Mr. Yan, who is so good at predicting things, did his plan fail again last night?" He Liankai picked up the tea teasingly, drank most of it in one gulp, then gargled it and spit it out, "You guessed that this person has repeatedly ruined our layout. Who is it?" "He Lianpu? Or Qin Chi?" Yan Jiangnan thought about it, and the most suspicious thing was the two of them, "One suddenly went to Huangshan to recuperate, and stayed there for several years. I heard that he was living a good life now, and he was accompanied by a child of several years old, who was the apprentice of his counselor. , this child is Qin Chis eldest son, its such a coincidence no matter how you look at it. If this person hadn''t hidden it too deeply. The two of them don''t need to be so passive. In addition to Emperor Ming Cheng and Prince Rui''s Palace, is there another force that is against them? At first they suspected that it belonged to Prince Rui, so Helian Kai sent more people to keep an eye on the people in the palace. As a result, there was no movement in the palace. Normally, except for the old housekeeper and the purchasing servants, almost no one comes in and out, and the news from the palace''s hidden line is that everything is business as usual. Chapter 388 banquet Chapter 388 Banquet Qin Chi came to the capital and did not interact with anyone from the palace. Prince Ruis connections in the court. Qin Chi didn''t seem to have any contact with them. No, there is a Duke Ning. Ning Guogong invited Qin Chi to attend the wedding banquet at his residence. It''s just that Ning Guogong''s mansion invited a lot of people, and one more Qin Chi is nothing. Besides, they received news that the emperor Sun Helianmian used Ning Guogong''s relationship to make a private appointment with Qin Chi. Maybe its the intuition of similar people. Yan Jiangnan is eyeing Qin Chi. He Liankai said: "He is a fledgling boy, how could he see through your plan last night?" "My lord and I were both twenty years old back then." If Yan Jiangnan had not had a relative make a mistake and cut off his path to the imperial examination, he would not have chosen to work for the prince after being rescued by the prince. He will take the formal imperial examination path and become an official in the court. However, there is no if in life, regrets are everywhere. He Liankai asked again: "How do you plan to solve the Zhang family''s matter?" "Let people move the medicinal materials and food stored by the Zhang family. Even if something happens to the Zhang family, there will be no problem with the medicinal materials and food." To put it bluntly, for them, the biggest role of the Zhang family is to provide silver and food. and medicinal materials. This is to ensure the supply of the army after the uprising. He Liankai understood what Yan Jiangnan meant at once, "You don''t plan to take care of the Zhang family anymore. The Zhang family has been with me for decades. If you abandon them like this, will other people be disappointed?" "My lord is a man of great achievements." Yan Jiangnan knew his master''s cruelty. Especially recently, he has become increasingly restless. Saying this is just saying. In fact, He Liankai was in a strangely good mood when he came over. Mainly I heard that nothing happened last night, and that Yan Jiangnan, who claimed to have a plan, was once again frustrated. As for Yan Jiangnan''s statement that the person behind the scenes was Qin Chi, he believed it eighty percent. He sent so many people to kill Qin Chi, his wife and children. It fails every time. If Qin Chi is not suspicious, who is? His wife Song Jin is also very suspicious. According to the investigation, this woman is incredible. She has developed such a big business in just a few years and has become one of the top medicine merchants in the Great Xia Dynasty. Yan Jiangnan took a sip of tea, raised his eyes and asked: "I heard that the Lord God sent a message to Fuzhou some time ago, asking someone to bring Song Kuan to the capital? It''s just that the journey is long, so I''m afraid it will take some time." "We received news that Qin Chi''s wife has been looking for her family, didn''t she? This is a very useful chess piece. Used at a critical moment, it may be able to surprise someone." "really." When the other party is planning. The day for the banquet at the Qin family''s new residence came. Song Jin only occasionally asked about many things, such as ingredients and contacting the chef, that needed to be prepared in advance, and Lao Litou would contact Lao Li for the rest. Song Jin took his servants one day in advance to clean the house inside and out. The areas that should have been repaired earlier were also repaired. The repaired house looked brand new. On the day of the banquet. The whole family put on new clothes. It was a joyous early morning. Only Song Jin kept sitting in front of the mirror, with the makeup on her face changing, no matter how she painted it, she was still unsatisfied. Its not that I didnt paint myself too ugly, its that I still look good no matter how I painted it. Qin Chi sat aside and watched. Several times I tried to make her not want to bother. But when he thought about her stunning appearance being exposed, he felt a little unhappy. Why should he let others see the treasure he had treasured for so long? Therefore, he supported Song Jin''s approach. After waiting for less than half an hour, Song Jin still looked slightly frowning. Qin Chi stood up, walked to the dressing table, and took the specially made rouge from Song Jin''s hand. "What kind of makeup do you want?" Qin Chi lowered his voice and asked. Song Jin thought for a while and said: "In the past, I wore plain makeup, and it looked like I had put on thin makeup. After putting on the makeup, I looked somewhat delicate. It is rare to show my face. I can''t embarrass my husband." "Okay, I understand, husband." Qin Chi is not good at applying makeup to women, but he is good at painting. After studying several tools that Song Jin personally made, when Song Jin went to wash off the makeup on his face, Qin Chi had already studied and understood it, and got started quickly. Then he asked Song Jin to sit down, and he began to concentrate on Song Jin. Jin''s face started to draw. There are rumors that his wife is ugly. Qin Chi felt uncomfortable, but he couldn''t refute the matter. After all, the person talking about it would not say it in front of him, so he had no chance to refute it. Today is a good time. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin raised his eyes and looked at Qin Chi''s calm and focused face, "Ms. sir, how did the Jin Yiwei check on the Zhang family?" "Jin Yiwei is blocked." Qin Chi told Song Jin the news he had recently received, "Do you think it''s strange or not? The people sent by Jinyiwei to investigate often had accidents on the way to Cha Zhang''s house. Either the horses collectively went crazy, or Jinyiwei had diarrhea. Something happened, something very sinister. Instead of investigating the Zhang family, the commander is conducting another round of investigation into the Jinyiwei traitors." The last time Qin Chi was attacked, the interior of Jinyiwei was cleaned. How long has it been since? Another half an hour later. Qin Chi drew the last stroke between Song Jin''s eyebrows, then put down the eyebrow pencil in his hand, "Okay, madam, take a look." Song Jin looked left and right at the bronze mirror. The woman in the mirror was blurry, and she could only see a rough outline. Qin Chi asked Mu Ting to bring a basin of water over, "I think it will shine through more clearly with water." Song Jin took another photo and praised: "My husband, this is a good craftsmanship." "My wife is so impressed." Qin Chi modestly waved his sleeves and saluted Song Jin in a decent manner, which made Song Jin unable to hold back his lips and smiled. His eyebrows were misty, clear, charming and seductive. Qin Chi was stunned for a moment. Suddenly he felt a little regretful. Did he draw the lady too pretty? It''s actually not amazing at all. In this part of the capital, after putting on this makeup, her appearance can be considered average at best, but her outstanding eyes, which are shining like autumn water, cannot be concealed by makeup. An ordinary appearance, matched with this pair of eyes. Her appearance improved a lot in an instant. She was originally average-looking. When she looked at him with a smile in her eyes, his heart was still beating fast and he was in a daze for a while. "What a mistake, madam." Qin Chi stretched out his big hand in distress and covered Song Jin''s eyes, "Learn to restrain your eyes. It''s best not to smile like this. When you smile, your whole person will be different..." It''s still stunningly beautiful. Song Jin smiled even more when he heard this, and his whole body seemed to be coated with a layer of soft light. Qin Chi finally realized it now. His wife is not only beautiful in appearance, but also in her unique aura. Fortunately, the person hosting the banquet was a male guest, so he was the one to entertain him. The lady only needs to entertain the female dependents in the backyard. Chapter 389 Busy city Chapter 389: A huge crowd Today its not just Qin Chi and Song Jin. The rest of the family was equally busy, and the busiest one was probably Saburo. He set up a table and chairs in front of the courtyard to receive gifts, and he was responsible for recording the gift list. The invitation Qin Chi sent out stated that no gift money would be accepted. However, this does not mean that others will not come to give gifts. Saburo sat here early in the morning and truly accepted the gifts with ease. It''s nothing more than a bustling city. These congratulatory gifts were sent by various families in the capital, 90% of which were from civil and military officials who had a fair impression of Qin Chi. Mr. Wen Ge and Zhang Shilang almost quarreled with Qin Chi in the palace because of an invitation. The officials present couldn''t explain it even if they didn''t know. It doesn''t matter if you didn''t receive the invitation. Sending a servant to send a congratulatory gift is regarded as a good relationship. When no one arrives, the congratulatory gifts arrive. For example, Duke Ning''s Mansion and Marquis Ling Yuan''s Mansion both sent congratulatory gifts. When some people who hadn''t sent it saw it, they prepared a congratulatory gift and sent it to the Qin family. After all, Qin Chi''s status is now very important. It would also be good to take this opportunity to show his presence in front of Qin Chi. As a result, the Qin family said it was a small place with a few tables, but the front door was extremely lively, with many people coming and going. People who met in front of the gate greeted each other. The warm and familiar energy made it even more fun to chat with the Qin family. But no, I wasn''t familiar with the Qin family, but I was more familiar with other families. At first glance, Lao Li realized something was wrong. As the temporary housekeeper, he immediately mobilized a group of people, and then he managed to entertain the guests. Otherwise, no one would be able to spare even the tea server. Lao Huo took charge of the security of the house. A group of guards under his command worked diligently to maintain order. Qin Ba became Qin Chi''s long-term follower. No, when he saw Xia Wei and his wife, the first guests who came to the door with an invitation today, he immediately led them to the main hall where they were receiving guests, and then ran to the main courtyard to report to Qin Chi: "Sir, Master Xia and his family are here." "So early? Okay, I''ll be there soon." Qin Chi replied to the door. Song Jin urged him to entertain the guests. If a female family member comes to the door, she should be led to the backyard, and she will also go to greet the guests later. According to custom, if a fire is added to a new house, it is believed to be Yang energy. The banquet time is usually chosen in the morning. Because most of the invited guests were colleagues who had to go to the Yamen on duty in the morning, Qin Chi did not want to cause many people in the Yamen to ask for leave because he was holding a banquet, so he changed the banquet to noon. In this way, colleagues can come to Qin''s house after leaving the office. This is what Qin Chi dares to do. This is not even giving people an excuse to ask for leave. Qin Chi went out to entertain the guests first. Qin Qi and a few maids were responsible for leading the family members who came this time to the backyard. Song Jin came out to receive the visitors. The one who came earlier was Mrs. Xia. Mrs. Xia is a slightly fat woman, with a fair and round face, not too luxurious clothes, and a kind smile, which gives people a sense of intimacy. This time she only brought her grandma and maid. Maybe she was told by Xia Wei to come over earlier to see if she could help. This was also because Song Jin had never attended a banquet and was not familiar with the ladies in charge of various houses in the capital. It''s just Mrs. Xia sitting in the hall. The moment they saw Song Jin appear, everyone was stunned. The first thought was: Who is so wicked as to spread rumors outside and turn a beautiful woman into an ugly woman? Song Jin''s makeup made her appearance look slimmer by six to seven points, but who was Mrs. Xia? She has seen many beauties. The moment Song Jin came to her, Mrs. Dress and make up appropriately. Behavior and etiquette also seem to be well-educated. Graceful and graceful. Song Jin said with a gentle smile: "It is a great honor to invite Madam Xia to this festive day. If there is any improper greeting, I hope Madam will forgive me." "No, no, I''m here to disturb you. Sister, please don''t dislike it." Madam Xia came forward to hold Song Jin''s hand. She didn''t pay attention at first, but when her eyes touched Song Jin''s hand, which was like a catkin, she was stunned for several breaths, especially Its the opponents hand compared to your own. I have to admit, it''s far less beautiful than other people''s. Mrs. Xia''s little move was very obscure, and Song Jin didn''t notice it. "My master got up early and hurriedly took me out together. He said that your family asked him to come and watch." Mrs. Xia said cheerfully. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin''s cheeks turned slightly red when he heard Mrs. "Hey, young people have good feelings." "I heard that you and Xia Shangshu are also very good. This is the most rare thing." Song Jin''s words made Mrs. Xia smile even deeper. This is indeed rare. When you are young, it is nothing to have a good relationship between a couple. What is rare is to have a good relationship for decades. However, there are still two rooms for concubines in Xia Wei''s back house, which were brought up by slaves instead of being brought in from the outside. But even so, compared to other officials, the back house is rarely clean. The two chatted again. With such cordiality, it''s hard to imagine that the two of them met for the first time today. No less than Song Jin, Mrs. Xia had never gone out to socialize. She often attended banquets held by various families in the upper class circles. In this regard, Song Jin could not keep up with the flattery. Through small talk, Mrs. Xia told some interesting anecdotes, such as which family tabooed what, which family had festivals with whom, etc. Several of the people mentioned may still come today. Song Jin knew that Mrs. Xia wanted to remind him, so he took the opportunity to humbly ask a few questions and immediately asked his servants to correct the oversights. It''s approaching noon. Fewer and fewer people from the Qin family came to give gifts. Occasionally one or two will come. This is the time when the real guests with invitations come to the door. Some of them came to the office half an hour early and were still wearing official uniforms. Qin Chi made it clear that he would not accept any gift money, but people who came over would not really come to the door empty-handed. Everyone is carrying something in their hands. Most of them are ordinary things, nothing expensive. For example, fresh cakes and fruits, or a jar of wine, or a bag of tea, spices, or unique calligraphy and painting and the four treasures of the study. The only copy is a handwritten copy for myself, and the calligraphy and painting were done by me. These things are not valuable if they are said to be expensive. It can only be said that everything is just right for their status. The Qin family hosted a banquet today, and the guests did not see any expensive furnishings along the way. In the upper-class circles of the capital, it was called "shabby", and no one who was born in this country could fault it. As the saying goes, every pot needs a lid. Qin Chi has always been like this since he came to the capital. He has always lived an open and honest life, not shying away from his humble background, which makes people look down upon him. Chapter 390 Cant hit the noble man Chapter 390: Dont rush into the noble man The family members of each family came to Qin''s house in carriages. Song Jin came forward to receive guests, spoke and smiled, and dealt with them appropriately. Beside her stood Mrs. Xia. With Mrs. Xia here, even if some female relatives looked down on Song Jin, they would not dare to act like a monster in front of her. Mrs. Xia is not only the wife of Xia Shangshu, but also comes from a scholarly family, and is quite respected by the queen. Mrs. Yan came here either early or late with her daughter and niece. When I first saw Song Jin, I was amazed. Yan Yurong on the side was also stunned. Its not about how beautiful Song Jin is at this time, but when the mother and daughter came over, they had already been prepared for Song Jins ugly appearance. They were even prepared in their hearts to try to be polite when they saw each other. Demeanor, you cannot express your inner thoughts. When they saw the real thing, it was much different from what they imagined. On the contrary, Wu Jingyao was much calmer. Mrs. Yan pulled her daughter and said, "Mrs. Qin, this is my daughter Yu Rong. Rong''er, come and call someone." "Hello, Mrs. Qin." Yan Yurong came forward and bowed to Yingying. Song Jin weakly stretched out his hand to help her, "Just treat it as if you are at home, no need to be polite." It was Wu Jingyao''s turn to step forward and salute. She smiled and said, "I have met Sister Song. I am Wu Jingyao from Wu Bohou Mansion." "Miss Wu, you''re welcome." Song Jin responded politely. Not enthusiastic and not rude. He just entertains girls from two families with the attitude of looking after his juniors. This is not what Wu Jing wants to see. She still wants to interact with Song Jin as a peer, rather than Song Jin treating her as a junior. Wu Jingyao stepped forward with a smile and took Song Jin''s hand, "The rumors outside are misleading. My sister is obviously a beauty. I don''t know why, when I see you, I feel particularly friendly. Is this a close eye?" Song Jin smiled politely. Then he replied with the same compliment without any enthusiasm, and withdrew his hand without leaving a trace. The eagerness and calculation in this girl''s eyes didn''t stop when she was talking to people. The fact is that Wu Jingyao didn''t put it away. But Song Jin is a person who has lived two lifetimes, and his experience is naturally extraordinary. She had never been involved in this circle in her previous life, otherwise, she wouldn''t need Mrs. Xia''s guidance. Mrs. Yan smiled and said: "Oh, you three stand together, you look like three sisters. Mrs. Xia, do you think so?" Mrs. Xia laughed and said, "It''s true. Ah Jin has a tender face." Song Jin smiled and said nothing. It''s not that her face is tender, it''s that Qin Chi''s makeup is good. She is twenty-three years old, how can she compare to other girls who are sixteen or seventeen years old? The three ladies appear to be of similar status. In fact, in terms of rank in the court, Mrs. Yan was ranked last. Yan Xianqing is the head of the Hanlin Academy, and his rank is only the fifth rank. But the head of the Hanlin Academy is likely to enter the cabinet. Therefore, even if Yan Xianqing has not yet entered the cabinet, no one dares to underestimate him. Song Jin brought people into the banquet. There were already people here. Mrs. Yan quickly saw an acquaintance and went over to chat with them. Wu Jingyao really wanted to get close to Song Jintao. However, today is Song Jin''s home court. People are so busy that there is no time to talk to anyone. When the banquet was full, the dishes were served. Many of the female relatives who came here today were told by their husbands to make good friends with Song Jin. If they don''t make good friends, they can''t offend her. In fact, these women are somewhat unhappy. A lucky farm wife. Even if they have a high status, they cannot bow their heads to please. I can only come here with the thought of not being offended and coming to see the excitement. Who makes Qin Chi''s reputation too great? The only thing that is criticized is that he married a wife who was born as a peasant woman, and she is also an ugly wife. Many people secretly complain He wondered when he would divorce his wife. It is said that Qin Chi loves his wife very much. It is one thing to hear, but not many believe. If you really love her so much, you won''t keep her at home and never let her come out to socialize. Some people even think of some of the tricks used by the back house, and secretly feel that in a few years, Qin Chi will let her wife "die" of illness. There are many ways to make a person disappear in the back house. However, I really met Song Jin. The rumored ugly wife is not ugly at all. Although I have never held a banquet before, there is nothing wrong with it. Everyone who comes here can feel the care taken and the dishes they eat are quite satisfactory. After the banquet is over and the guests say goodbye, they will also give a return gift. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! After a banquet. Except that the furnishings were a little shabby and far from the luxury of the princes and nobles, I couldn''t fault it for a while. During the banquet, there were several young ladies who had not yet left the court. They wanted to leave the banquet in various ways. Some said they wanted to take a pee, some said their clothes were stained with tea and needed to be changed, and some even said that sitting there was too boring. They wanted to take a walk in the garden, and some even said they wanted to visit the Qin family''s mansion. Song Jin did not respond to this. Some people say that a maid is specially arranged to lead the urination. The maid accompanied her the whole time. The young lady wanted to make an excuse to prevent the maid from following, but the maid reminded her thoughtfully: "Miss, please forgive me. Butler Li told the servants earlier that there were many guests in the house today, so in order to avoid any foreign men rushing into the house, Wei The girls who leave the palace must be carefully watched by the slaves. If anything happens, our monthly payment will be deducted. " "I''ll give you ten taels." The lady wanted to be angry but held back. The maid originally came from the secret guard camp. How could she be dazzled by a little money? She immediately shook her head, looking naive and accepting death, which made the young lady very angry. I could only finish relieving myself and return to my seat in despair. The one who said his clothes were stained with tea was the same as the one who went to change his clothes. Qin Qi specially arranged for the other party to go to the empty room next door, not far away, and personally guard the outside. The young lady knew that someone was guarding the door, so she originally wanted to climb out of the window and leave. As a result, the window opens. Guarding outside was a tall and rough-looking woman. The rough lady said politely: "I met the noble man. Miss Ah Qi said that for the sake of the noble man''s innocence, she asked the old slave to guard the window to prevent anything blind from bumping into you." "Haha, your house is so considerate." The young lady''s reply was almost squeezed out from her teeth. The calculation failed, the plan failed. The person who said the banquet was boring was Wu Jingyao, who proposed to go for a walk in the garden. The Qin family''s garden is full of ordinary flowers and trees, nothing attractive. Qin Qi called Mu Ting to accompany him. Along the way, Wu Jingyao wanted to talk to Mu Ting. Mu Ting was confused and pretended to be dumbfounded. Wu Jingyao didn''t have any problems, and asked her confidant to wink, and then said: "Hey, there is a pavilion in front, let''s go and sit there." So the maid of the Wu family immediately thought of a way to distract Muting, "Miss Muting, my young lady wants to sit in the pavilion. Can you please make a pot of tea?" "That''s no problem." Mu Ting agreed immediately. When Mu Ting left, Wu Jingyao thought she had succeeded in getting the person away, and gave the maid an appreciative look. The winter solstice is here, happy holidays everyone. Chapter 391 The Liu family raised an army Chapter 391 The Liu family raises troops Wu Jingyao shamelessly came to Qin''s house with Mrs. Yan, firstly because she wanted to make friends with Song Jin, and secondly because she wanted to find a chance to meet Qin Chi by chance. It was the wrong time to make friends with Song Jin. Song Jin was very busy today. She tried to talk to him several times but failed. It is even more difficult to reach the sky to see Qin Chi. The banquet of the female family members was held in the backyard. The male guests are in the front yard. If he didn''t take the initiative to leave the banquet, it would be impossible to achieve his goal today. Wu Jingyao was about to walk towards the front yard. She wanted to get closer to explore the situation first, but she had just walked a dozen steps. "Hey, Miss Wu, you''re going in the wrong direction. That''s not a pavilion." Mu Ting appeared mysteriously. Suddenly, Wu Jingyao was shocked. Wu Jingyao quickly apologized, "No, I was attracted by that crabapple flower just now and wanted to go and take a look." Mu Ting looked in the direction pointed by Wu Jingyao. There is indeed a red begonia flower not far away, which blooms very brightly. This reason can barely be justified. The Wu family maid on the side asked: "Didn''t Miss Muting say she made tea for my young lady?" "The making of tea is in the tearoom''s hands. I''m just going to pass on a message. Miss Wu, please be patient." Mu Ting spoke respectfully and with no disrespect in her tone. What he said made the master and servant angry. Wu Jingyao could only pretend to admire the begonia flowers for a while, then turned back and walked towards the octagonal pavilion mentioned earlier. As Mu Ting said, after a while, the maid brought tea, and thoughtfully served a plate of fruits and pastries. The presentation is exquisite but the portions are not much. It''s so thoughtful that you can''t fault it. Mu Ting retreated to the outside of the pavilion to guard, so as not to disturb the tranquility of the guests. After a while, Yan Yurong came. "Wow, my cousin is really here." Someone came over again, and now Wu Jingyao''s plan failed. When the female family members were almost gone, Wu Jingyao could only leave with Mrs. Yan and her daughter no matter how long they waited. Before leaving, he pushed aside the others, walked up to Song Jin, and said directly: "Sister Song, you and I hit it off like old friends. Next time I will visit you. There are many places to play in the capital, and there are many delicious food." something. Song Jin smiled politely and said, "I will definitely go when I have time." Anyone can hear that these are polite words. The so-called free time, when it comes to making an appointment, will definitely shirk the fact that it is not available. During the entire banquet, Qin Qi was watching from the side, and no scandal of one kind or another occurred. There were no accidents in the Qin family that happened at banquets in the past. In order to reward everyone, Song Jin gave each person two taels of silver, plus extra food for everyone today. Wu Jingyao got on the Yan family''s carriage. They didn''t speak when they sat down, and their expression seemed not to be good. Mrs. Yan asked, "What''s wrong with Jingyao? But I met someone who was short-sighted and provoked you at the banquet?" "That''s not true." Wu Jingyao did not tell Mrs. Yan. From her mother''s mouth, she learned that Mrs. Yan did not agree with the Wu family''s plan, saying that Uncle Yan did not support it. Mrs. Yan looked at her for a few times and made up her mind, "Jingyao, there are so many men in the world. You can''t choose another one. There is no need to just stare at one. Spring Festival will be held next year, and young talents from all over the world will be invited to attend." We will gather in the capital, and we will take a good look at it." "But aunt, no matter how good she is, so what?" Wu Jingyao lowered her head and lowered her eyelids, "Is it possible that he can still get a rank of six yuan? Can he become a second-rank official at such a young age? In the future, the history of the Great Xia Dynasty will definitely have him as his wife. It will also be recorded..." It will be recorded in the annals of history and will be remembered for generations to come. Even if it is just a few words, no one will find it objectionable. There are countless women in the boudoir in the capital who know that Qin Chi has a wife and children, but still want to follow him. They want nothing more than this. The carriage was quiet for a while. Yan Yurong opened her mouth several times to speak, but then held back. Mrs. Yans face didnt look good either. Wu Jingyao didn''t want to offend her aunt, so she gradually shed tears silently, and said in a choked voice: "Aunt, my parents are not you. You will plan for your cousin wholeheartedly, and they will not care about my life or death... I accidentally learned a few days ago that my father is trying to find a way. Send me to the East Palace. "What?!" Mrs. Yan was shocked. Yan Yurong was also shocked, "How dare you, uncle? No one in the capital knows that the East Palace is a big fire pit!" "Yeah, who doesn''t know?" Wu Jingyao said with a sad face. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! In order to gain sympathy from the two of them and help them in the future, Wu Jingyao did not tell her parents that she had persuaded them to target Qin Chi. Qin Chi saw off the last guest and went to see Song Jin. Song Jin was listening to Mu Ting laughingly talking about the rich and colorful things happening at today''s banquet. Only others found it funny, but Song Jin saw something different, such as the current gap between her and Qin Chi. Those female relatives came to attend the banquet. On the surface, they were smiling and polite, but in fact, they didn''t take her Song Jin seriously. "What are you talking about? Are you so happy?" Qin Chi spoke with a smile on his face. Mu Ting looked away guiltily and quickly bowed and retreated. Song Jin pretended that nothing happened and stood up to greet him, "Are you tired, sir? Do you want to rest for a while first?" "Madam, do you have nothing to ask me?" Qin Chi knew what happened at the banquet of the female family members in the back house. Song Jin may also know in his heart that even if he knows something that didn''t happen, it''s hard to say it out loud. He might even be accused of being suspicious, jealous, and overthinking. Qin Chi held her hand tightly and waited for her to speak. For a long while, Song Jin didn''t say anything. Qin Chi said calmly: "We have been husband and wife for so many years. You should understand that if I really have other thoughts, you can''t stop me, let alone wait until now. I don''t ask you to focus on me wholeheartedly, I just hope you can always believe in me." I." "What are you talking about, my husband? I have always been devoted to my husband." Song Jin''s soft voice was like a breeze blowing on her face. But after speaking, she lowered her head pretending to be shy, "I also trust my husband very much." Qin Chi knew clearly that Song Jin was different. I will not regard my husband as my heaven like other women. The heart is like a stone, it is difficult to keep it warm. Just as Qin Chi opened his mouth to say something else, Qin Ba''s voice suddenly sounded outside, "Sir, there is an urgent report from Jianning." Qin Chi stood up and spoke to Song Jin in a low voice before striding out. The person who came to deliver the letter was waiting in the study. When Qin Chi passed by, he saw a strange young man. The young man saluted Qin Chi respectfully. He handed the letter in his arms to Qin Chi with both hands. After Qin Chi took it, the young man bowed and left. This kind of letter that had to be delivered to him in person was probably because something big had happened in Jianning. Qin Chi opened it immediately. That is to say, I saw that there was not much content in the letter, but every word explained the problem: the Liu family in Jianning raised troops, and Fuzhou was in danger. Chapter 392 Qin Shangshu, Your Majesty summoned Chapter 392 Qin Shangshu, summoned by His Majesty He Liankai and Yan Jiangnan were making frequent moves. Qin Chi had already expected that they were going to start an uprising. Soon the Great Xia Dynasty will be in chaos. From the moment he learned about Jianning''s affairs, Qin Chi knew that such a day would come sooner or later. According to how much the other party hated him, he didn''t dare to say that the other party would come to kill him as soon as they invaded the capital, but they would not let him go. Old man Hong and old man Li came in. Qin Chi handed the secret report to the two of them for review. Lao Li was not surprised when he saw it. Old Man Hong frowned, "Is there an uprising in the Jianning Liu family?" "Ahem, the Liu family is so brave." Lao Li slapped his head haha. Old Man Hong didn''t know about the fact that the young master had obtained the evidence of the Liu family''s rebellion but had never produced it. He hasn''t seen the young master take it out for so long, but he believes that the young master is a measured person. Old Man Hong said solemnly: "This news must be spread to the northwest immediately so that the prince can be mentally prepared." "Okay, Uncle Hong will do this." Qin Chi followed Old Man Hong''s words. Old man Hong saluted Qin Chi and turned to leave. Qin Chi and Lao Li looked at each other. "Sir, what should we do next?" Lao Li asked in a low voice. Qin Chi thought deeply: "With such a big news about Jianning''s army rising, how could the Jinyiwei not receive the news? It will spread throughout the capital in a few days. There is no need for us to reveal it. The source of the news is difficult to explain." "It''s not up to us to say." Old Li Tou knew that Emperor Ming Cheng was a cruel and suspicious person. Qin Chi thought of what happened in Zhangjiawan. Since Xing Lun sent the letter, he sent people to investigate. It has been several days, but no definite news has been returned. Qin Chi asked again: "Uncle Li, have you figured out the water transportation? Jianning raised troops to attack the capital, and they will probably use waterways. Zhangjiawan is the key. Earlier, so many people from the other side sneaked into the capital, but I didn''t. The little bit of news I received made me suspect that Zhangjiawans informant is either dead or may have been betrayed. " Old Li Tou looked solemn and said, "I''m going to investigate right now." "Then please leave it to Uncle Li." It is different from the treacherous situation in the dark. What happened at the Qin family''s banquet today spread through various channels. The one that attracted the most attention was not Qin Chi, but Song Jin, Qin Chi''s wife. Who told Qin Chi to hide people tightly? People who have attended the banquet don''t know why, but when they mention Song Jin, they are vague, saying that the person is not ugly, the banquet is a bit shabby, or that the Qin family''s family is not rich, and occasionally one or two ladies say in private. The servants of the Qin family don''t understand the rules and so on. On the contrary, Mrs. Xia praised Song Jin greatly. Reviews are mixed, and the situation is weird. "Isn''t it ugly?" Zhang Yanzi sent her maid out to inquire. The result of the inquiry was something she was not happy to hear. The maid said firmly: "It''s not ugly. I heard that she wears makeup. She has an upright face and a gentle temperament. She holds the banquet in a very orderly manner, but she is very careful with the guests. The servants of the Qin Mansion are watching the guests wherever they go." Zhang Yanzi sneered, "So Wu Jingyao didn''t succeed?" Wu Jingyao went, but she couldn''t go, and she was already feeling angry. The uncle originally said that Qin Chi would come to Zhang''s house. She had picked out her clothes and outfits, and she waited around but didn''t see anyone. Later I heard that my uncle was at odds with Qin Chi. Qin Chi will not come to Zhang Mansion as a guest. I dont know what happened to her father after that. No one was found at home, not even anyone to discuss the matter. People don''t care. There was movement outside. "Is Zi''er here?" It was Master Zhang''s voice. The servant replied respectfully: "Go back to the Second Master, the young lady is resting in the house." After a while, the maid came in to inform Zhang Yanzi. Zhang Yanzi went to the living room outside and saw Mr. Zhang sitting there with a sullen expression, "Yanzi has met her father." "Everyone else, get out." Mr. Zhang looked around at the other people in the room. Zhang Yanzi also signaled to her confidants to wait out. After a while, only the father and daughter were left in the living room. Mr. Zhang got straight to the point and said: "In a few days, it will be the birthday banquet of the eldest princess. There will be many people attending the banquet, and Qin Qi''an will also go. Zi''er will dress up nicely that day, and we will make arrangements..." Zhang Yanzi nodded, her eyes full of determination to win. And the next few days. The situation in the capital has faintly changed. Those who are keenly aware of the approaching storm. Qin Chi didn''t know that someone was planning to plot against him at the eldest princess''s birthday party, so he went to the Ministry of Industry Yamen as usual every day. With the assistance of Wang Shilang, he has successfully taken over the affairs of the minister. In addition, it is worth mentioning that Zhang Shilang also came to the Yamen on duty. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! As if nothing happened. Let the Yamen officials be unsure about this. Is it really a misunderstanding? Didn''t Jin Yiwei find any problem? Only Qin Chi knew the reason. Jinyiwei was temporarily unable to spare time to investigate. The internal investigation of spies had just been completed, and oh, there was another uprising in Jianning. This is a big deal. Emperor Mingcheng was furious when he received the news. He suppressed the news for the time being and ordered Jin Yiwei to investigate with all his strength. For a while, he could not take care of the Zhang family at all. Qin Chi looked at Mr. Zhang darkly. Is this a way for the people behind it to protect the Zhang family? I have to say, it was a success. "Is Minister Qin here?" The soft voice of the little **** who delivered the message sounded. Qin Chi looked at the door and saw Qin Ba coming in with a eunuch. The **** saluted Qin Chi with a serious face, and then said: "Qin Shangshu, your majesty has summoned me." "Now?" Qin Chi asked. The **** affirmed: "Yes, leave now." "OK." Qin Chi put away the official documents on the desk and handed them to Wang Shilang beside him, "I''ll bother Mr. Wang with these." Wang Shilang took it and watched Qin Chi leave with the eunuch. Zhang Shilang didn''t know when he stood next to Wang Shilang, "Master Wang, are you willing?" "So what if you''re not willing to give in?" Wang Shilang asked with a smile, "Or do you want me to be like you, with a knife hanging over your head that will fall down at any time?" Zhang Shilang''s face twisted for a moment. Soon, the Zhang family will be able to come forward soon. The news of Jianning''s uprising was known to Shilang Zhang, and it wouldn''t be long before Jianning''s message to attack Emperor Ming Cheng would spread throughout the world. Emperor Ming Cheng''s method of winning the throne was not clean. "Exhortation" is an article written since ancient times when crusading thugs and traitors of the country. This is an article written for everyone in the world to read. One is to declare that he is a reputable teacher, that he is on the side of righteousness, and that he is a righteous teacher. It will detail the crimes committed by Emperor Ming Cheng. Anyway, in his statement, Emperor Ming Cheng''s crimes were so heinous that they should not be tolerated in the world. The second is to build up our own morale. Unite as many forces as possible to make the world accept your uprising, thereby increasing the possibility of victory. Qin Chi went over with the young eunuch. On the way, he met Xia Wei and several important officials in the court. As soon as they arrived in front of the palace gate, they heard the angry curses of Emperor Ming Cheng, which made Qin Chi and others stop in their tracks. Are you hesitant to go in at this time? Chapter 393 Teacher of millions Chapter 393: Millions of Teachers "A bunch of rubbish! Where did Jianning''s million-strong army come from? It''s such a big thing, but no one received the news in advance?" Emperor Mingcheng cursed loudly. He scolded the people inside until they were bloody. Xia Wei, who was parked outside, was shocked and his expression changed drastically. Qin Chi also pretended to be surprised, but in fact he felt calm. Did you just receive the news about the Jianning uprising? Qin Chi knew that according to Yan Jiangnan''s sophisticated calculations, there would definitely be a crusade. It was just a matter of time. By then, Emperor Mingcheng would probably be even more angry. The **** went in to report. Then allow Xia Wei, Qin Chi and others to enter. There are already three cabinet ministers and other ministers in the palace, as well as some military generals from the court. Ning Guogong is also here. Nowadays, there is internal and external troubles and there is no room for them to be lazy. Among the many ministers present, Qin Chi''s qualifications were still relatively low. When everyone was discussing, he rarely spoke unless necessary. He was treated as a foil presence at the scene. And this discussion cannot be decided in a short while. The time of day when the value should be lowered. Song Jin waited at home for a long time, but did not see Qin Chi coming home. When he sent someone to the Yamen to inquire, he learned that Qin Chi had been summoned by Emperor Ming Cheng and had not yet left the palace. "Madam, there is an uprising in the Liu family of Jianning. They claim to be a righteous force with millions of people. The news has reached the capital. Your Majesty must have known about it, so he summoned many ministers to discuss it together." Qin Qi informed Song Jin of the situation. Song Jin stood up suddenly, "Is there something going on?" "Yes." Qin Qi affirmed. "This is not a good thing..." Song Jin thought that her family had not been found yet, and the current situation was different from the previous life. In the previous life, the Jianning Liu family did not revolt, and she did not hear of anyone in the country rebelling before her death. It was true that the emperor had changed. The memory of the past life is now messed up and cannot be used accurately. Song Jin didn''t know at this time that it was precisely because of her that Qin Chi''s family and her maternal family were not dead, and the general trend of the world changed accordingly. Especially since Prince Rui is not dead. It directly affected the structure of the Great Xia Dynasty. After the death of the former Prince Shirui, the northwest was almost lost, and General Ling was killed in battle. Not long after, the northwest was controlled by the former prince''s forces, and the capital was also controlled. The three giants holding real power in North Korea and China. The chief minister of the cabinet, the commander of the Imperial Guard and the superintendent of ceremonies. There is Mr. Yang Ge in the cabinet, and Admiral Feng is the Supervisor of Ceremonies. The only uncontrollable commander of the Jinyi Guards, who had served several "rejuvenations" under Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty, suddenly died suddenly. The commander was dismissed and replaced by someone from the former prince. The entire Daxia court was controlled by the former prince''s forces without bloodshed. In the end, Emperor Ming Cheng''s bloodline died out. The one who came directly to the throne was the son of the former Crown Prince He Liankai, Liu Ji, who was raised in the Liu family. The Liu family followed the chickens and dogs to ascend to heaven, and were granted the title of marquis and prime minister, so there was no need to rebel at all. Jianning''s troops were transferred to the northwest to guard, completely replacing Prince Rui''s manpower, and the power of the world was concentrated in the hands of the emperor. It can be said that the new emperor''s rights are even greater than those of the Ming emperor. The moment Yan Jiangnan appeared, he became famous. He entered the cabinet and became the chief minister in the shortest time in history. After issuing a series of reform measures that are beneficial to people''s livelihood, it is inevitable to become a minister who will be remembered throughout the ages. His lifelong ambition has finally been realized. However, these things cannot be known in this life. Song Jin also didn''t expect it. He was thinking about the manpower he put in Jianning and Fuzhou. He didn''t know whether it was safe now, knowing that Song Xiaodong and Song Xiaocheng were over there. "Mu Ting." Song Jin shouted. Mu Ting, who was parked outside, came in. Song Jin ordered: "Go and ask Xing Lun to come over tomorrow when he has time, saying that I have something important to discuss." "Yes, I''ll do it right away." Mu Ting turned around and went out. Xing Lun is in the capital recently to discuss business with people. He has not yet left the capital. The fleet is still parked at the water transport terminal. Xing Lun is currently in Zhangjiawan. "Mom, play with Niuniu." Niu Niu came in with a nine-ring ring on her short legs and held the nine-ring ring in front of Song Jin. Song Jin picked up Niu Niu, sat on his lap, and then began to patiently teach Niu Niu how to play the Nine Links. The little girl was very happy and giggled happily. She imitated Song Jin''s movements and could quickly solve the problem herself. Song Jin was surprised and praised: "My daughter is so smart, she can learn it immediately." The little girl was a little proud. Then he immersed himself in playing. Song Jin originally thought that Xing Lun would come over tomorrow, but he didn''t expect to come back that night. He came back with Lao Li Tou, who was still injured. Lao Li had to leave a few days ago because of something else. Qin Ba is currently driving Qin Chi''s carriage. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin just put Niu Niu to sleep. After receiving the report, people went over to visit. In Lao Li Tou''s room, Doctor Jing was bandaging Lao Li Tou''s wound. Now Lao Litou drank the medicine and was feeling drowsy. Doctor Jing asked everyone not to disturb him and let him rest first. "My boss." Xing Lun greeted Song Jin. Song Jin called people out and asked about the situation. Xing Lun talked about what happened in Zhangjiawan, "I received the message from Mu Ting, so I decided to come over in advance. On the way, I met someone chasing and injured old Uncle Li." It goes without saying what follows. When he encountered an injured person who was on his side, Xing Lun naturally helped and saved the person. Xing Lun looked around and lowered his voice: "My boss, it seems that Old Uncle Li was investigating something and was stabbed in the back by one of his own." "I have no control over this matter." Song Jin raised his eyes to look at Xing Lun and said solemnly, "Someone will be responsible later, so just treat it as if you didn''t know anything." "Yes, I understand." Xing Lun nodded. Qin Chi did not participate in Song Jin''s power. Song Jin also had limited knowledge of Qin Chi''s side. As Song Jin said, Old Li''s affairs were taken over by Old Hong. Song Jin and Xing Lun went to the living room. The servants served tea. Mu Ting stood guard at the door, preventing anyone from approaching. Song Jin told Xing Lun about the rebellion of the Liu family in Jianning. "A master of millions?" Xing Lun was shocked. How long does it take to prepare secretly to have so many soldiers? Song Jin thought to himself, no, he had been preparing for at least ten or twenty years, "This number may not be real, it may be an exaggeration, but I thought about the military strength, it must be hundreds of thousands, and I am embarrassed to say that it is not hundreds of thousands. He is a teacher of millions. Xing Lun also had the same idea. Song Jin added: "What I''m worried about right now is the branch of the Song family in Jianning. If the Liu family recruits troops, the branch of the Song family will inevitably get involved. Song Xiaodong is in Jianning and is responsible for the affairs there." "He should be able to handle it well. The club must trust him." Xing Lun knew that Song Xiaodong had grown rapidly in recent years and was now able to stand alone. At this time, Xing Lun thought of another question, "Should our people who stayed in Fuzhou withdraw? When the Jianning uprising occurs, the first area to be attacked will probably be Fuzhou. Otherwise, when the imperial court sends troops to quell the rebellion, the Jianning rebellion will The army will be attacked from both sides." Chapter 394 Women are subordinate Chapter 394 Women are subordinate Song Jin didn''t understand the war. When it comes to being attacked from both sides, Song Jin understands. Fuzhou is south of Jianning and close to the sea, which is also equivalent to a retreat route for the rebels. The Dan people whom Song Jin and Lao Huo found out back then were most likely water bandits trained by the Liu family, or they might also be navy masters. Fuzhou seems to be in charge of Governor Wang, but it is unknown how many rebel forces are hidden behind it. If a war breaks out, Song Xiaodong will inevitably go to the battlefield. This is troublesome. The two discussed whether to withdraw their personnel. In rebel areas, there is no personal protection. Song Jin finally decided, "We have withdrawn the people. If we can, we will withdraw. If we can''t, we will hide them. We will put our own safety first." Xing Lun understood. Let your men withdraw if they can, and save their own lives if they can''t. Song Jin added: "The medicinal materials promised to be sent to Dinghaiwei this year cannot be taken along the previous route. Try to find a new route. If you find there is danger, you can withdraw it. It doesn''t matter if you break the contract." "My boss is worried about the rebels intercepting us?" Xing Lun asked. Song Jin was helpless, "Isn''t this a certainty? Our transaction with Governor Wang cannot be concealed from the Liu family''s spies. At this time of year, there is a 80% chance that the transaction will be targeted. It will be safer to change the route." Just need to take a detour. Even arriving in Fuzhou will be delayed. Song Jin thought for a while and then said: "Also, you can''t go into danger and go with a new face. If something happens to you, I can''t explain it to Aunt Yin." Xing Lun waited for Song Jin to finish speaking, and then said in a calm tone: "Don''t worry, boss. In addition to the waterway, I have also opened two safe routes on land. There are also people arranged by me on the road. Don''t worry." Hearing this, Song Jin was very surprised, "As expected of you, you are more thoughtful than I thought." "I also try to take precautions before they happen." Xing Lun smiled a little embarrassedly after being praised. Song Jin patted him on the shoulder, "Good defense! Very good defense!" Xing Lun''s two business routes both avoided Jianning Prefecture and took a detour to Fuzhou. This was Xing Lun''s preparation in advance because he knew about Jianning''s instability. It was also for those in Fuzhou. personnel, two routes of retreat. Song Jin cannot leave the capital at the moment. The matter can only be left to Xing Lun. Xing Lun had dinner at Qin''s house, but did not leave Qin''s house. Instead, he went to the courtyard prepared by Song Jin for him and Sanlang. He rested in the courtyard for a night and left before dawn the next day. This night. Qin Chi stayed in the palace and did not return home. Song Jin woke up, had breakfast, and then went to see Lao Li Tou. Old Li Tou is already awake. After a few words of concern, Song Jin left without asking Lao Li why his head was injured, showing a sense of propriety. This made Old Li feel inexplicably guilty. When he saw Old Man Hong, he said, "I saw Madam this morning. She came to care about me, which made me feel indebted." "What have you done to offend Madam?" Old Man Hong asked. Lao Li was stunned, "No." "Then what do you owe?" "This..." Old Li Tou couldn''t tell. Can it be said that he didn''t tell his wife the reason for his injury, as if he was treating her as an outsider? Old Man Hong stared at him seriously, "Young Master is the one we want to be loyal to. Madam is just Young Master''s vassal, you have to distinguish priorities. It is about Young Master''s secrets. The less Madam knows about Young Master''s secrets, the better. This will be more beneficial to Young Master." "My wife only needs to give birth to children for the young master, manage the back house well, and not cause any trouble to the young master." "Okay, okay, why are you so serious? I can still tell the difference clearly. Besides, Madam has helped the young master a lot in these years." Old Li Tou said unhappily. Old Man Hong warned: "A woman''s kindness." He valued Song Jin, but he would not put her in the same position as Qin Chi. After all, this world is dominated by men, and women are subordinate. Old Li Tou responded perfunctorily and urged Old Man Hong to deal with the business quickly. Thinking of being injured, he felt angry in his heart and gritted his teeth and said: "Hong, go and deal with the Zhangjiawan matter. Those **** things Traitors who dare to betray the Young Master deserve to die regardless of their reasons. "Do I need you to give me orders?" The evil spirit in Old Man Hong has not been restrained. Those who are timid will not dare to look directly at it. After Old Li Tou was rescued, Old Man Hong took over the matter. The people who betrayed Zhangjiawan last night have been dealt with, and even their stronghold was burned down. All traces were wiped away. The people who are in contact with Zhangjiawan are under investigation and interrogation. Those with problems will be executed, and those without problems will be dismissed. This is very much like the resolute and resolute style of old man Hong. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin stood at the door. Just in time to hear the conversation between the two, Song Jin handed the tonic in his hand to Qin Qi who was standing aside, indicating that she would send it in, while Song Jin turned and left. Qin Qi had a bad feeling. But she couldn''t tell exactly what was wrong. Watching Song Jin go away, Qin Qi raised his hand and knocked on Lao Li''s door. When Song Jin heard these words, he didn''t have much emotion. She had already been mentally prepared for this. It''s just a little uncomfortable. A woman who has never experienced freedom may accept her fate and be trapped in the back house. People who have once had freedom will inevitably feel a little wild. Song Jin is such a woman. She has always adhered to her duty. He fulfilled his responsibilities in this family and got along well with Qin Chi''s people. There was never any conflict or bad looks. Standing in the garden, looking at the brightly blooming crabapple flowers, after a long time, she sighed slightly, with a touch of sadness on her eyebrows. When she heard the footsteps approaching in the distance, Song Jin started to fight again. Spirit. It was as if the sadness just now didn''t exist. He returned to his usual indifference, with a gentle smile on his face. Mu Ting came over quickly, "My boss, it''s Miss Wu''s family who''s here, saying she wants to invite you to the teahouse for tea." Song Jin frowned, "Did she send any posts earlier?" "I sent it the day before yesterday. The post was placed in the host''s room. Didn''t the host see it?" Mu Ting remembered that there was a stack of invitations earlier and she sent them to Song Jin for review. Song Jin thought about it and realized that it really happened. At that time, her second son started crying, so she let it go. Later, she forgot about it after coaxing the child. "Please ask Miss Wu to wait in the living room." Song Jin ordered Mu Ting, and then walked to her dormitory. She was currently dressed in homely clothes, and the most important thing was that she was not wearing any makeup. After moving to this big house, neighbors will no longer come to visit unexpectedly. Generally, when guests come over, they will hand over the post first. As long as he does not see guests or goes out, Song Jin will not deliberately put on ugly makeup on himself. Song Jin went back to the room to find the post. I saw the Wu familys above, the date is today. If she had known that she would find an excuse to refuse, it is not easy to make excuses temporarily in this situation. After all, she has already arrived at the house. If someone else did not receive a reply from Song Jin''s invitation, she would default to Song Jin''s refusal, which means Wu Jingyao is quite unhappy. Same. People defaulted to Song Jins decision! Chapter 395 Unexpected Chapter 395 Unexpected Song Jin dressed up properly and went out to the hall. At first glance, Wu Jingyao noticed that Song Jin seemed to be more beautiful than the last time she saw her. After careful inspection, she found that Song Jin''s makeup was slightly different from that day. She thought that she had changed to a maid with better makeup? No one would have thought that it was Qin Chi who put on Song Jins makeup last time, and this time it was Song Jin herself. "I haven''t seen you for a few days, and Sister Song is becoming more and more radiant." Wu Jingyao smiled flatteringly. Song Jin smiled and replied: "Miss Wu is not only a beauty, but also has a sweet mouth." "How can I be called a beauty in front of Sister Song?" Wu Jingyao warmly stepped forward to take Song Jin''s arm. Song Jin avoided it without leaving any trace and sat on the master''s seat. The servant quickly gave Song Jin another bowl of tea, "It seems that I was rude. I didn''t have time to drink tea outside, and I forgot to reply to Miss Wu." Well, Im sorry to have you come here so early. "What the hell, I was the one who was abrupt." Wu Jingyao apologized sincerely, "I didn''t hear Sister Song''s reply. I thought you agreed, so I came to pick you up at the agreed time." Song Jin chuckled, but did not expose the loopholes in her words. You must really follow the agreement. People should also go to the teahouse and open a private room to wait for her. Instead of coming directly to pick people up. Wu Jingyao''s current dress looks elegant but can be seen in every detail. Compared with Song Jin''s casual homely dress, she looks more like she is attending a banquet. Without a look, Wu Jingyao could tell that Song Jin had no intention of going out. The situation outside was unclear, and Song Jin had no plans to go out. Even though it was rude, Song Jin didn''t think it mattered. It was Wu Jingyao who was rude first. Even if she was rude at this time, Wu Jingyao would not publicize it. This is the reason why Song Jin is so confident. Wu Jingyao was a good talker. When he learned that Song Jin had no intention of going out, he started chatting. Song Jin would talk a few words from time to time so as not to leave Wu Jingyao in the cold. This is also due to Song Jin''s upbringing. But its also lukewarm. It wasn''t until Niuniu came to see her mother with toys that the scene became a little more lively. Niu Niu looked at Wu Jingyao curiously with her big eyes open. Song Jin lowered his head and said, "Niuniu calls for someone, this is Aunt Wu." "Hello, Aunt Wu." Niu Niu saluted politely. Wu Jingyao pretended to be happy, "This is Sister Song''s daughter. She is so cute and a well-mannered little girl. When you have time, Aunt Wu will take you out to play." Niu Niu smiled shyly. He turned around and rushed to Song Jin''s side, hugged Song Jin''s thigh, and glanced at Wu Jingyao furtively. Song Jin apologized: "Miss Wu, I''m sorry, the children at home haven''t seen many outsiders and are a little afraid of strangers." "It''s not in the way, it''s not in the way. You''ll get to know her after seeing her more often." Wu Jingyao wanted to please Niu Niu, but she couldn''t seem too eager, but she still gave Niu Niu a smile that she thought was friendly. As a result, Niuniu seemed to be frightened. Suddenly she shrank to Song Jin''s side again, and her little face was buried in Song Jin''s waist, as if if she didn''t see the other party, the other party wouldn''t be able to see her. Song Jin raised his eyebrows in a funny way. Next, Wu Jingyao ignored Song Jin''s offer of tea to see off the guests and stayed at Qin''s house until noon. She thought she could wait until Qin Chi returned home, but there was no sign of her. Song Jin could not let his guests eat. Let the kitchen prepare it. Wu Jingyao had another meal. In the evening, Qin Chi was still nowhere to be seen. You can''t spend the night at Qin''s house now. It would be really rude and lose your identity. She was unwilling to do so, but she said goodbye with a smile on her face. Naturally, Wu Jingyao came to visit with a gift this time. When Wu Jingyao left, Song Jin returned the valuable things, accepted some less valuable things, and added some more. Song Jin even walked the person to the door in person. Wu Jingyao said politely: "Sister Song, there is no need to give it away anymore. I apologize for disturbing you today. The next time we see each other, it will probably be the eldest princess''s birthday party." "Oh, see you next time." Song Jin responded politely. Just as Wu Jingyao was walking towards the carriage with her maid. Qin Chi''s carriage rolled over. Song Jin was about to turn around and go back, but he could only stop when he saw this. Wu Jingyao also saw it and stopped walking. Qin Ba stopped the carriage, turned around and whispered something to Qin Chi in the carriage. Then, Qin Ba jumped off the carriage and went to lead the horse in front. Then, things got a little weird. As if suspended. Wu Jingyao and the maid stopped at the front steps and did not leave. In this situation, they should avoid suspicion. They hurriedly got into the carriage, but Wu Jingyao pretended that her shoes were loose and asked the maid to help tidy them up. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! It only took a while before Qin Chi got out of the car and bumped into Wu Jingyao, just in time to see someone. Song Jin saw Wu Jingyao''s thoughts, but had no intention of stopping him. Mu Ting stood behind her, worried for Song Jin. "Master, why don''t you go up and greet him?" Mu Ting wanted Song Jin to go to the carriage and greet Qin Chi as he got off. Song Jin didn''t move her steps, and said with a smile on her lips: "Mu Ting, women should not only focus on men, and should not only think about living dependent on men. The so-called three obediences and four virtues, and treating husbands as heaven are just for men. To imprison the shackles of women in the world, if possible... we should live for ourselves." "But this is not easy?" Mu Ting lowered her eyelids and murmured softly. Song Jinxing glanced at her lightly. Yes, easier said than done? But she, Song Jin, would not let herself live as a jealous woman, nor would she change herself beyond recognition. Just a man... Time passed little by little. No one came out of Qin Chi''s carriage, but the guards around the carriage did not withdraw, indicating that there was indeed someone in the carriage, and it was probably Qin Chi. Wu Jingyao''s master and servant arranged their clothes and accessories without waiting for Qin Chi to get out of the car. Another point is that it was Lao Huo who took the lead and stared at Wu Jingyao carelessly. This old Huo has a fierce look on his face. Judging from the appearance, he is not a good bird. In fact, this man is really not a good guy. He looks straight at you, making even a woman afraid of him. When Lao Huo was about to come over with a big knife on his shoulder, Wu Jingyao''s maid took the lead in dragging her and escaping to the carriage. Wu Jingyao was unwilling and could only get into the carriage. The maid is not worth it for her young lady, "Miss, they are so hateful, the Qin family are so hateful." Wu Jingyao glared at her fiercely, "Shut up, isn''t it embarrassing enough?" Wait for Wu Mansion''s carriage to go away. Qin Ba couldn''t help laughing, "It''s true. At this time, it''s Lao Huo who should take action and cut off a rotten peach blossom for the young master." "Yes, Lao Huo is worried about ghosts." "Pinch a peach blossom and you''ll get it right." The guards next to him started cheering. "Hey, it''s just a joke." Lao Huo turned around and bowed his hands to everyone, just like a busker getting applause. Song Jin was unexpected for this development. Qin Ba went to lift the curtain, and Qin Chi got out of the carriage calmly, stepping on the horse stool and landing on the ground paved with bluestone slabs. He looked straight at Song Jin who was standing in front of the high gate. Chapter 396 Punishment Message Chapter 396 Crusade against the Prosecution The person stood quietly on the steps. Her soft hair was blown by the wind, and her sleeves and skirt were swaying gently, like a fairy about to ride the wind back. Qin Chi subconsciously strode to Song Jin. "Madam, did you enjoy the show?" "I''m waiting for your husband, but I didn''t see anything going on." Song Jin replied warmly, his eyes flashing with brilliance. Qin Chi had a sudden thought and led the man back home, "I haven''t been back for two days. Do you want to be my husband?" "I thought, I even asked someone to go to the Yamen to inquire about it." Song Jin said openly. Qin Chi was slightly stunned upon hearing this, and then raised the corners of his lips. One good thing about his wife is that she lives a clear and honest life. "This answer means you are sensible." After entering. Song Jin asked the kitchen to prepare hot water for bathing. After Qin Chi freshened up, he had dinner with Song Jin. He was supposed to go to rest, but he went there when he learned that Lao Li had injured his head. It was late at night when he returned to the dormitory. Song Jin hadn''t rested yet and was waiting for Qin Chi. Qin Chi was surprised, "Madam, are you still waiting for me?" "Well, I''ll wait for you." Song Jin put down the new clothes she had sewn, "Wu Jingyao came over today and said she wanted to invite me to the teahouse. I know she is a drunkard who doesn''t care about drinking. If you don''t have that heart, you will be as far away from her as you are today when we meet her in the future." "My husband knows it." Qin Chi took off his coat and put it on the screen beside him, then turned around and sat on the edge of the bed to take off his shoes. Song Jin packed up the sewing basket and put it away, then moved it into the bed, "Wu Jingyao said before leaving, see you at the birthday party of the eldest princess. I went to look through the invitation posts, and some were sent to my home. I invite you and Im going to attend, do you want to go? The time is the day after tomorrow. "There''s no rush to decide this matter. We''ll discuss it tomorrow." Qin Chi never thought about deciding whether to go or not now. If there hadn''t been an uprising in Jianning, Qin Chi would probably have paid a visit to the eldest princess''s mansion. After all, the Prince of Chu had indirectly helped Song Jin and others in Fuzhou. At present, there are internal and external troubles, and Emperor Ming Cheng is in a furious state. It is not certain whether the grand birthday banquet in the past can be held as scheduled. Song Jin heard what Qin Chi meant. Not long. The man fell into a deep sleep. When Song Jin woke up the next day, Qin Chi''s figure was no longer around him. After asking Qin Qi, he found out that he had put on court clothes and entered the palace before dawn. Get up, wash up, and get dressed. Song Jin visited his youngest son and then had breakfast with Niu Niu. Sanlang, who has been away from home and is even busier than Song Jin, is actually in the house today. He excitedly took a copied article and handed it to Song Jin to read. "Sister-in-law, look, look! The Jianning rebels wrote a crusade. This article spread throughout the capital almost on the same day. It was plastered all over the streets and alleys. It caused quite a stir...I heard that other states The same goes for the government, it has been spread a few days ago. Saburo said excitedly, his eyebrows dancing. At the age when he is worried about the world being in chaos, major events in the world are just a lively event for him. The fact that the message was able to spread throughout all the state capitals in Daxia in such a short period of time must be because the rebels had already planned and arranged manpower in each state capital in advance. Song Jin took the letter and read it over. When he saw one of the charges against Emperor Ming Cheng, Song Jin''s pupils shrank sharply. Sanlang looked indifferent because he didn''t know the life experiences of Li and Qin Chi, but Song Jin knew. The person who wrote the memorandum had great literary talent, every word was exquisite, and he was also very vicious. If Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty reads this article, he will probably be so angry that he vomits blood. Song Jin didn''t know. Before the message spread throughout the world, it was sent to the imperial court by the royal guards. Emperor Mingcheng saw the proclamation last night. He wasn''t so angry that he vomited blood, but he didn''t catch a breath, and he was so angry that he fainted. This is also the reason why Qin Chi was summoned to the palace before dawn. At this time, Qin Chi got up early and didn''t drink any water. He stayed in front of Emperor Ming Cheng''s chamber. Not only Qin Chi was guarding the front of the palace, but also a group of high-ranking ministers gathered here. An essay was read by everyone in turn, and Qin Chi was the youngest, so the article was the last to be handed to him, so he slowly lowered his eyes and read the "Essay on Pursuing Thieves". The article is eloquent and has more than a thousand words. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The beginning is to highlight the topic, using one''s own position to cite the teacher of justice, then to detail the dozens of crimes committed by Emperor Mingcheng, and finally to shout for the righteous people of the world to join them. The article content is as follows: In the past, during the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Taizu Gao established the foundation and unified the world for more than a hundred years. However, in today''s world, the emperor is fatuous, disobeys the law of heaven, and acts like Jie and Zhou, causing the artifacts to become dusty and the sea to boil. As a last resort, I raised up the army and wiped out the evildoers. I hereby declare to the world. The emperor killed the wise prince Kai and seized the throne to establish himself. This is the only crime. The prince, the crown prince of the country, the ruler of a hundred generations, actually committed regicide... His crime is as great as the sun and the moon passing through the sky, and the rivers passing through the earth cannot be concealed. The emperor is headstrong and acts on his own initiative. He refuses to remonstrate and pretends to be wrong. This is his second crime. The ancient emperors all regarded it as a virtue to obey advice, but the emperor alone did not. Anyone who speaks out will be punished, so that loyal and good people will become silent and dare not speak again. The government is deteriorating day by day, and the country''s power is declining day by day, all due to this. The emperor uses treacherous ministers to disrupt the government, which is the third crime. The ancient emperors all regarded diligence and frugality as virtues, but the emperor only took pleasure in debauchery, which caused the treasury to be empty and the people to live in poverty. This was the fourth sin. I was also shocked to hear that the emperor had secretly harmed Prince Rui and his heirs, which was the fifth crime. Prince Rui is an important weapon of the country, vowing to guard the borders and protect the country. The emperor actually used his own selfish desires to murder his heirs, causing the meritorious officials to cut off their incest. This crime is so great that it reaches the sky and reaches the earth. It makes people and gods angry, and heaven and earth cannot tolerate it. I will punish my sins in heaven, and righteousness lies in eradicating adultery. Looking at the handsome men in all directions, they will rise up after hearing the news, uphold justice, and join in the righteous deeds. I would like to send this message to the world. The charges against Emperor Ming Cheng are mixed in truth and falsehood. Qin Chi''s eyes fell on the fifth sin, and the slogan in his hand was clenched into a ball in anger, or maybe the movement was too big, which attracted the attention of others. He found that the eyes of others were falling on him. Qin Chi calmly smoothed out the wrinkles in his message, and said apologetically: "I''m sorry, sirs, I was too angry and couldn''t hold it back for a while. These traitors are just talking nonsense, and they throw all the dirty water at Your Majesty. I believe justice lies in people''s hearts, and no knowledgeable person will believe what is said in the article." "Ahem, Qin Shangshu is right." Ning Guogong quickly agreed, "Your Majesty is such a good person. These traitors deserve to die. They must be caught and executed by all the nine tribes." Qin Chi wants to say that the nine clans of the rebel leader include Emperor Mingcheng. Do you dare to destroy them? But these words were destined to be kept in his stomach. The silence was broken by Qin Chi. Others spoke out to attack the traitors, and some even spoke fiercely, wanting to fight the traitors immediately. Maybe these people will react. Every word and deed in the palace will be watched and eventually reported to Emperor Mingcheng. Qin Chi kept a low profile at this time, letting others talk without saying a word. Chapter 397 discuss Chapter 397 Discussion "Qin Qi''an, read the message!" Emperor Mingcheng''s majestic voice suddenly sounded. There was a sudden silence all around. Everyone saw that Emperor Ming Cheng had a slightly sick look on his face, so he was helped out by Jixiang and sat down in front of Long An. All ministers pay homage to Emperor Ming Cheng. A word of etiquette down. Returning to what Emperor Ming Cheng said first. Emperor Ming Cheng looked at Qin Chi. After Qin Chi hesitated, he spread out his message and spoke clearly: "In the past, our emperor Ming Dynasty, Emperor Taizu Gao founded the foundation and unified the world..." It was deathly quiet. It was Qin Chi''s voice that echoed. After Qin Chi finished reading, the others also knelt down. Emperor Mingcheng''s face was ashen and he suppressed his anger. Only Qin Chi stood there, stunned, folded up the memorandum, and handed it to the hand of the chamberlain on the side. He calmly said: "Your Majesty, the memorandum spread by the traitor is actually just to slander you. At the same time, he said You can''t do evil in the name of justice, but you''ll end up being a thief." "That''s right, Your Majesty, please don''t injure the dragon''s body because of this." Xia Wei echoed, and then denounced the rebellious ministers and traitors, "The traitors actually want to disrupt the order of the world by spreading propaganda and make the people lose confidence in the court, so as to shake the country. What''s even more abominable is that they also want to It is extremely hateful to try to sow discord between His Majesty and Prince Rui and make His Majesty lose the support of the people!" Ning Guogong jumped out and said, "That''s right! We will not accept the charges that the traitors have made indiscriminately in order to bring trouble to the world. I am willing to lead the army to Jianning to quell the rebellion, and I hope that your majesty will do it!" "I am willing to serve Your Majesty as well as I can." "I am willing to serve His Majesty with all my heart, even to the point of death." "I am willing..." One by one, they jumped out to express their loyalty to Emperor Ming Cheng. No matter what they think in their hearts, all the current ministers are sincere and the expressions on their faces are also in place. Occasionally they act a little exaggerated, but they quickly restrain themselves. "My dear friends, you are interested." Emperor Mingcheng''s face improved slightly, and he raised his hand to stop them from continuing to express their loyalty, "I must have known the content of the memorandum. I invite you all to come here. One is to analyze the true intentions of the rebels. The other is to brainstorm and come up with a solution. Deal with the rebels As for the matter between me and Prince Rui, you dont need to pay attention to it. If there is anyone in the world that I trust most, it is undoubtedly him. Dont try to sow the feelings between our brothers with just a few words. Of course, I will write a letter about this matter. Send to the northwest. Everyone looked at each other secretly. They all breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. The memorial article lists many crimes of Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty, most of which can be traced, but the fifth crime is unknown, and this one is particularly fatal to Daxia. Prince Rui guards the northwest. He is the God of War in Daxia and holds a large number of troops. When the rebels were in trouble, if Prince Rui believed the contents of the memorandum and did not handle it well, he would probably turn against Emperor Mingcheng. Now Emperor Ming Cheng said that their brotherhood is strong, which is undoubtedly good news. In this way, the situation is not the worst for them, they just need to find ways to calm the chaos. Other ministers thought so. Only Qin Chi stood behind with his head lowered. After opening his head, his presence was no longer high. As for what Emperor Ming Cheng said, Qin Chi didn''t believe it. Emperor Ming Cheng knew best what he had done. Emperor Mingcheng was not aware of the retaliation carried out by the remnants of the former crown prince against Prince Rui''s Mansion in the early years. Later, after investigating, he suppressed the news and chose to stand by and watch. The real culprit was not Emperor Mingcheng, but Emperor Mingcheng''s actions were more ruthless than the real culprit. The real culprit had a grudge against Prince Rui''s palace. Instead, Emperor Mingcheng watched his younger brother''s heirs die one after another. It was not difficult for Qin Chi to guess what Emperor Ming Cheng was thinking. It was just that he was worried that Prince Rui''s power would threaten his throne. If someone hadn''t attacked Prince Rui''s heir before him, according to Emperor Ming Cheng''s temperament, he would have done it himself as time went by. Don''t talk about family ties with the emperor. Not sitting on the throne of God or there is. Once you sit on the throne, people''s hearts will change. All morning, the ministers were discussing this matter. Because Emperor Ming Cheng said that Prince Rui was fine, everyone was thinking about how to solve the rebellion in Jianning and formulated corresponding strategies. Reading the content of the memorandum, it is not difficult to see that the rebels wanted to force Emperor Ming Cheng to abdicate and issue an edict against himself. But no one would point this out without any care, not even Mr. Ning Guogong, who usually acted carelessly. Mr. Ge Wen said loudly: "I suggest sending envoys to negotiate. After studying the entire statement, I can''t understand the intentions of the rebels. Therefore, I suggest sending people to understand first and then negotiate. If the negotiation fails, If so, then send troops to quell the chaos. Our Great Xia Dynasty is a country of etiquette. We should follow etiquette first and then use military force." There is no precedent in the past. When rebels appeared in the court, the court would not send troops to quell the rebellion first, but would first send envoys to the rebel camp to try to resolve differences through negotiation and avoid war. This approach can alleviate tensions to a certain extent and avoid unnecessary conflicts. If negotiations fail, the military is often called in to suppress the situation. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! More than half of the ministers agreed with Mr. Wen Ge''s proposal. Qin Chi knew that this kind of negotiation was in vain. Behind the Liu family is the former crown prince He Liankai, who had a serious feud with Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty and Prince Rui. Li Huarong also spoke out: "Previously, I suggested issuing a notice to calm the people as soon as possible to clarify the facts, stabilize people''s hearts, express the court''s position and measures, and eliminate people''s panic and uneasiness." "I second the proposal." Qin Chi stood up and said, "I also feel that before discussing, we should first calm the people and then rectify the administration to ensure that even if the war breaks out, each government office can still operate normally." This is just about rectifying the internal situation to prevent spies from coming out to cause damage. Xia Wei stood up and said, "My lord, I second my proposal." "Your Majesty, I also think it''s okay." Ning Guogong stood up again and said. So Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty gave the order. He began to draft official documents to calm the people, copied many copies, and sent them to various state capitals. At the same time, he announced to the world, denounced the traitors, confused right and wrong, acted perversely, and so on. Anyway, it is a response to the appeal. It''s like two parties are quarreling, one is swearing, saying how hateful the other is and how unjust it is. One scolded him back, saying that the other party was just spreading rumors and using this to do evil. Scolding back and forth like this. It usually takes a while. These matters were far away from Song Jin, and she could not intervene. Instead, the eldest princess sent a housekeeper over, bringing an apology and informing her that the birthday banquet was cancelled. The big banquet was changed to a family banquet. Song Jin expressed his understanding of this. Other people also showed tolerance. Only Zhang Yanzi smashed another tea set when she heard the news. Chapter 398 news from father Chapter 398 News from Father "That''s unreasonable!" Zhang Yanzi was so angry that she smashed another tea bowl, "The banquet is coming tomorrow, something must happen!" "Zi''er?" Mr. Zhang came over and saw the broken porcelain shards on the ground, and frowned, "This is enough at home, but don''t do it outside. If your reputation is ruined, it will be difficult to marry well." "My daughter knows." As soon as Zhang Yanzi saw her father, she hurriedly restrained herself and stepped forward to salute. The maid next to her was very discerning and quickly cleaned the floor. Wait until all the maids have withdrawn. Zhang Yanzi''s eyes were filled with mist, and she said aggrievedly: "Father, why am I so unlucky? The things I said once or twice can change midway." "There''s nothing we can do about it." Mr. Zhang is also angry, but he can''t change it. Zhang Yanzi said angrily: "Does this matter have to be done in the eldest princess''s mansion?" "It''s not that the Zhang family has to do things in the eldest princess''s mansion, it''s that Qin Qi''an is very cautious and will never be left alone outside. Even in the Yamen, he will always be accompanied by his trusted followers." Mr. Zhang was more anxious than anyone else. This is the task assigned to him by Mr. Zhang. It has been several days and he has not completed it yet. According to the above meaning, it is to ruin Qin Chi''s reputation, make him distracted or have flaws. I dont know how the servants of the Qin family found them. It is difficult for others to send an informant in, and those servants rarely go out, so it is not easy to bribe them. The most important thing is that the servants of the Qin family have almost no ties behind them, which means they have no relatives. friend. Mr. Zhang sat down again and took Zhang Yanzi to see Mr. Zhang for discussion. When Zhang Shilang came back from the Yamen, he saw Mr. Zhang waiting at home. He learned that they had not thought of a way for so long, "We must first think of a way to let Qin Qi''an be alone." "Can we go directly to the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry?" Zhang Erye suddenly had an idea, "Look for an excuse to ask Zi''er to find you, and then brother will give Qin Chi some medicine..." "How did you figure it out?" Zhang Shilang asked back gloomily. Mr. Zhang Er didnt think there was anything wrong with this plan. It''s a bit difficult, but it''s not that it''s impossible to figure out. Soon, Shilang Zhang shattered his fantasy, "Qin Qi''an was assassinated many times, and his guards were very tight. Although we work in the yamen, under normal circumstances, we hand over official documents or files. They are all made by Chang Sui. handed it to Qin Qi''an. Also, he never eats food from the yamen, and his lunch is brought from home. Not to mention that it is impossible to drug his food, because as long as the food and water leave his sight, He wont touch it again. "This, this is too exaggerated!" Mr. Zhang is at his wits end. Mr. Zhang said gloomily: "I heard that the girl from the Wu family once went to the Qin family and made friends with Qin Qi''an''s wife? If it doesn''t work, take her path." "Will the Wu family cooperate with us?" "Tell his family that Yanzi only wants the position of concubine, and the wife will be given to the Wu family. I think they will cooperate." Zhang Shilang looked at Zhang Yanzi whose expression changed greatly, and comforted him, "Yanzi, uncle. Its just a temporary measure, not really asking you to be a concubine. "Yanzi understands." Zhang Yanzi breathed a sigh of relief. It''s not enough to be a concubine. As for plotting against Wu Jingyao, she didn''t feel guilty at all. What the Zhang family is planning and what Zhang Shilang is thinking in his heart, he will naturally not tell Zhang Er Ye and his daughter. In fact, this is a task given by Yan Jiangnan to Zhang Shilang, which is to ask the Zhang family to find ways to create obstacles for Qin Chi and to devote themselves to causing trouble for Qin Chi and creating opportunities for assassins in the dark. In short, this is not about sending a woman to the top, but He is waiting for an opportunity to take the life of Qin Chi. It''s just that several days have passed. Qin Chi was too cautious and the Zhang family couldn''t find any solution. Zhang Shilang didn''t think of a way to deal with Qin Chi, so he thought of the Qin family members. It''s just that Qin Chi''s wife and children are just like him, they almost never leave the house. Let the plans of many parties fail. Only Wu Jingyao came to the door and stayed for a day. Isn''t this conspicuous? Then, Song Jin discovered something unusual. It is understandable that Qin Chi spends more time in the palace and the Yamen. Ever since the announcement appeared, the situation in the capital has been very tense, and most of the pedestrians on the streets have been reduced. Later, the imperial court''s policy of reassuring the people came out. The streets returned to their usual bustle. There are more and more various posts sent to the Qin family. They are usually not invitations from big people, but from people who are not well-known or who are not good enough. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! These posts look normal. In fact, it was not normal. At this time, Song Jin was invited, and she was even invited with her children. There were various reasons. Maybe she was waiting for someone to impress Song Jin, so that Song Jin would go out. "Hey, it''s Aunt Wu again. She wants to invite mother to go to the lake, and she also wants to take Niu Niu with her." Niu Niu was flipping through a pile of invitations today. The little girl was enlightened at the age of three and knew a lot of words. Normally reading an invitation is not a problem. Niu Niu''s childish little voice said in a serious tone: "Mom, she is here to compete with Niu Niu for her father. Niu Niu doesn''t like her." "Who told you this?" Song Jin''s face suddenly became serious. Niu Niu blinked her eyes in confusion, "No one told Niu Niu. It was Grandpa Li who told Sister A Qi and Sister Muting that there were many elder sisters outside who wanted to **** their father from their mother and drive her away. Wrestling daddy with mother, isnt that the same as wresting daddy with Niu Niu? After Song Jin asked clearly, the corner of his mouth couldn''t help but twitch. It was the day of the Qin family''s banquet. Old Li Tou, the temporary butler, set out to warn a group of servants to be careful on the day of the banquet to prevent unmarried girls who came to the banquet from acting like monsters. I dont know how many words were said, but Niu Nius self-understanding was that someone was trying to steal her father. No wonder Niu Nius reaction was a little strange when she saw Wu Jingyao that day. The little girl who was usually fearless actually pretended to be frightened when she saw Wu Jingyao and hid in her arms like a little drama queen. "My boss." Mu Ting hurried in from outside, with an anxious look on her face. Song Jin felt nervous and asked Xiaoyu to take Niuniu down. He stood up and asked, "What happened? Are you so anxious?" "There was news from Fuzhou that someone saw Mr. Song at a small pier. He was on a boat at the time. He was followed by a group of people. Our people couldn''t get close to him..." Mu Ting''s face turned red with excitement. Their first priority had always been to find a family member for her boss, and then Mu Ting revealed the news. Their people did meet Song Kuan. They had long been familiar with Song Kuan''s portrait and would never admit his mistake. The only miscalculation was that they wanted to rescue people, but were discovered before they even got close to Song Kuan, and several people were injured. After that, the person lost his trace again. But one thing is for sure, Song Kuan is not dead. Chapter 399 The situation is serious Chapter 399 The situation is serious After the ups and downs in Song Jin''s heart, he gradually calmed down, "It will take at least half a month for this news to come from Fuzhou." "Yes, yes." Mu Ting suddenly felt a little depressed. After hearing the news, he hurriedly reported it to his employer, temporarily ignoring the time difference in the time it took for the news to reach the capital. Next, Song Jin was a little distracted. Qin Chi came home late that day again, and it was already the zenith of the moon. Gently opening the door, he saw the lights in the bedroom were dim. He thought Song Jin had fallen asleep, so he naturally relaxed his steps. Unexpectedly, he saw Song Jin sitting on the edge of the bed with his clothes neatly arranged. "Lady?" Qin Chi arrived at the table and picked up the wick, "It''s so late, why haven''t you rested yet? Didn''t I say before that you don''t have to wait for me to come back." Song Jin suddenly came to his senses and said, "My husband is back?" Qin Chi saw that she had a strange look on her face, and was about to ask a few questions when another person came hurriedly from the outer door, and it was Qin Ba''s urgent voice: "Sir, there is something urgent to report." Hearing this, Qin Chi could only look back at Song Jin, "Madam, I have to go out beforehand. You should rest first and don''t be tired." "Okay." Song Jin replied helplessly. Originally, she was waiting for him to return because she had something to say to him, but now it seemed that she couldn''t and watched Qin Chi go out. Qin Chi saw Qin Ba waiting anxiously outside. He looked at Qin Ba with questioning eyes, and Qin Ba immediately whispered: "Uncle Hong and Uncle Tao are waiting for you in the study." "I''ll be right over." Qin Chi strode towards the study. There is a lighting lantern hung at regular intervals on the corridor. You don''t need to hold a lantern to see the road clearly at night. People arrive at the study door. Qin Chi saw Old Man Hong and Shopkeeper Tao waiting inside. There was a faint smell of blood on Old Man Hong. When Qin Chi passed by him, he stopped and asked with concern: "Uncle Hong smells of blood. Is he injured?" "It''s okay, the blood belongs to others." Old Man Hong was very happy to learn about Qin Chi''s concern, but he still explained the matter, "I interrogated three traitors, especially the one who hurt Lao Li. They found out, and they said that their family was captured by a force, and they had to from." Qin Chi was speechless for a moment. When these informants go to Zhangjiawan to lurk, they may be single. Sometimes, in order to better integrate into the local area, it is common for them to marry and have children. Old Man Hong said again: "I gave them a ride, including their families, and they must give an explanation to the people they killed. Master, don''t feel cruel. If their families are let go, similar things will happen in the future." , they will be lucky and feel that betraying the young master is nothing, and their family can survive anyway. " "I understand, I don''t blame Uncle Hong." Qin Chi walked to his seat in the study, "Can you find out who is behind it?" "It''s a banquet in Jiangnan." Old Man Hong said in a determined tone, "Zhangjiawan seems to be calm, but in fact I have investigated and found that almost all of the important access points are controlled by people from Yanjiangnan." "This will make things worse!" Before Qin Chi could speak, shopkeeper Tao beside him said in shock, "Sir, something has gone wrong. When I was in Huai''an, guess who I bumped into?" Qin Chi and Old Man Hong both looked at him. Shopkeeper Tao then said hurriedly: "I met a group of people when I was leaving the city and found Song Kuan among them. He has lost weight and most of his hair has turned gray." "Seriously?" Qin Chi asked in shock. Shopkeeper Tao nodded affirmatively, "That''s him. I have sharp eyes and I can''t be wrong. He seemed to be controlled by others. I didn''t dare to act rashly. I changed the waterway back to Beijing in advance. I have arranged for someone to keep an eye on him secretly. He will be here in two or three days. We are about to arrive in the capital." Unlike Mu Ting and others, shopkeeper Tao knew Song Kuan. In order to establish a connection with the Song family, he met Song Kuan several times and even had tea and meals together. Qin Chi was so shocked that he had not yet recovered. Old man Hong next to him noticed something was wrong, "According to our investigation, he should have fallen into the hands of Yan Jiangnan and the others, and suddenly appeared at the dock. This is not an easy matter." "No wonder the other party has been silent. It turns out that the one waiting for me is here." Qin Chi immediately noticed something was wrong, and immediately thought of Song Jin''s abnormality just now, "Is there anything unusual at home today, madam?" "Recently, there have been a lot of posts inviting ladies. They are all women or young ladies from ordinary families. The oldest one is Mrs. Wu from the Wu Bohou Mansion." Old Man Hong felt a little disgusted when he mentioned the Wu Bohou Mansion. The Wu family wanted to To climb up to the young master is simply a dream, "Mu Ting went out for a trip today, and when she came back... she looked a little anxious." None of this is a good thing. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Don''t talk about your own problems. The biggest thing is that Zhangjiawan is in danger. This is an important area of ??the capital, and there is no reason to be impatient in banqueting Jiangnan. As long as Zhangjiawan is occupied, the rebel navy will probably send its troops northward. The Great Xia Dynasty also had naval forces, and they were very powerful in the past. Even after Emperor Ming Cheng came to power, they were not as good as each year. In fact, it was fine when he was young. Later, the national treasury was empty and could not pay military salaries. The officers and soldiers were repeatedly cut off, and gradually it became even more desolate. Now that the navy has moved out, it is not clear whether it can fight, otherwise the pirates in the East China Sea will not be able to fight. It was so rampant that Governor Wang would not focus on rectifying it. The three people''s faces were solemn at the same time. At this time, the capital is likely to start a fight. It''s not like Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty hasn''t been mobilized in the past few days. Especially Qin Chi, who was silent for a long time and said: "Uncle Hong, I want to send someone to rescue Song Kuan, no matter the cost." "Master!" Old Man Hong suspected it was a conspiracy, "Shopkeeper Tao saw it by chance, could it be a trap set by the other party?" "I know, but I still have to go." Qin Chi knew that Yan Jiangnan had just fallen in love with him, otherwise, he would not have brought Song Kuan up. He probably knew that he and Song Jin were looking for the Song family. Not only did he fail to find where the Song family was hidden, Song Jin also never found them. Their people were almost everywhere in Jianning and Fuzhou, which shows how deeply the Liu family hides their people. Old Man Hong disapproved of Qin Chi''s risk taking. The situation is now serious and at a critical moment, it is very unwise to mobilize people to save one person, which may expose their hidden power. In fact, Shopkeeper Tao didn''t agree with it, "Sir, do you want to wait? Premature exposure will be detrimental to us." "Our only chance to save people before they reach the capital is our only chance to save people." Qin Chi''s attitude was very determined. It has been many years since he made an agreement with her, and he has still not been able to find a family for her. Qin Chi felt a little distressed inexplicably when he recalled the woman who was strong enough to negotiate a deal with him in Shun''an Bookstore. Now she finally received the news about Song Kuan. If he gave up saving people because of the situation, she didn''t know what would happen. If she found out, the family would be broken up. He just has this intuition! Chapter 400 Argument in the palace Chapter 400 The debate in the palace Qin Chi sat in the study and issued several orders overnight. After that, he took a nap on the couch in the study room for a while, then got up and put on clean official robes to go to court. His steps were steady, and it was hard to tell that he had not rested all night. Under the protection of the guards, he got on the carriage. On the way, I saw several soft sedan chairs being carried towards the palace gate. Not all officials went to court in carriages, most of them chose to sit in sedan chairs, and their traveling style was far inferior to Qin Chi''s. There are some officials of low rank and average family background who usually walk to go to the Yamen for duty. The Qin family''s carriage passed them. Several officials gathered together. Someone joked: "In terms of ostentation, the princes and nobles are not as good as our Lord Qin." "Are you envious?" an official next to him asked with a smile. The man shook his head quickly, "No, no, no, I''m not envious. I don''t think I''m lucky enough to enjoy Mr. Qin''s scenery." "Huh, isn''t that right? If anyone else had happened upon him, the grass on his grave would have grown half as tall as a person." Who doesn''t know that Qin Chi is being targeted, and he will be assassinated if he makes a mistake? This happens every two days. Civil and military officials have become accustomed to it. Qin Chi''s assassins were all kinds of assassins, and anyone else would have died countless times. Qin Chi is still alive and kicking. All I can say is that this man has a tough life. One person suddenly said: "I haven''t heard of Mr. Qin''s assassination for several days this time. Has the killer given up?" "The ministers discussed state affairs in the palace for a few days. The assassin wanted to assassinate him in the palace, but he didn''t have the ability." The state affairs discussed at the court meeting were still about the rebels. The main thing is to discuss which official should be sent to negotiate. There was a stalemate on this issue, and the atmosphere in the hall was very tense. This is a very dangerous chore, and good negotiation is a great achievement. If you are not careful, you may be regarded as a threat by the rebels. Ninety percent of the civil servants in the imperial court did not want to go. Everyone lowered their heads and tried to reduce their sense of presence. Emperor Mingcheng sat on the dragon throne and stared majestically at the civil and military officials of the court. "No one has come forward. Are you willing to go to Jianning?" The main hall was deathly silent. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty looked at the three pavilion elders and asked, "What candidates do the three beloved ministers have in mind?" Li Huarong was about to answer. Mr. Wen Ge was the first to speak: "Your Majesty, these opportunities for meritorious service should be given to young ministers. Therefore, I propose that Lord Qin Qi''an go there..." "You fart!" Li Huarong interrupted Mr. Wen Ge, pointed at Mr. Wen Ge and yelled, "You are such a shameless person. Isn''t it just because Qin Qian refuted your face that you are so small-minded that you make random suggestions regardless of the overall situation? You don''t Do you know that Qin Qi''an is an important minister in the court, or don''t you know that he will be at the helm of the entire Ministry of Industry? You have to wonder if Mr. Wen Ge, who is rumored to be a polite and fair person, is just a false name." Each of these curse words is more serious than the last. Wen Ge was so angry that he pointed his finger at Li Huarong, his lips trembling from time to time, "You, you are spitting blood." "It''s better than you not being a human being." Li Huarong sneered back. Immediately, without waiting for Mr. Wen Ge to defend himself, Li Huarong bowed down and apologized to Emperor Ming Cheng, saying sincerely: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for my gaffe. I am really too angry. After all, Mr. Qin is a young minister promoted by your Majesty. Wen Ge is the future pillar of our Great Xia Dynasty. The old man said he was giving him a chance to make meritorious deeds, but in fact he was pushing him to die. Who in the civil and military circles of the dynasty didn''t know that he was assassinated by unknown forces every day? Thats it, can he still live without Beijing? Can one sentence still survive? Emperor Mingcheng was also asked. Everyone knows this, and its impossible to survive. Qin Chi lowered his head and lowered his eyelids without speaking. In fact, no one suggested who should go. Because whoever is mentioned is offended. At this time, the clear-minded officials also knew that Mr. Wen Ge was a little biased. According to the convention, this kind of thing is similar to disaster relief. Usually, they are selected among fifth-rank officials. Their status is a little important but not very important. If they are the most powerful, they will be ranked fourth. Looking for product officials. Of course, ambitious officials may take the initiative to take orders and pursue a prosperous road. No matter what, the important ministers in the court will not be allowed to go. Qin Chi serves as Minister of Industry. It is indeed inappropriate to suggest that he go to Jianning. Qin Chi wondered whether Mr. Wen Ge had someone behind his back to suggest this at the court meeting. But I didn''t expect that Zhang Shilang would stand up and take the initiative to ask for help, "I would like to inform your majesty that I am willing to go and help your majesty solve your problems." Someone actually took the initiative to stand up? Everyone looked at the speaker in surprise. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! When they found out it was Mr. Zhang, someone immediately understood. Zhang Shilang''s situation in the court was very embarrassing. When Jinyiwei investigated the Zhang family, various situations always came up. Not everyone suspected that the Zhang family was trying to avoid doing anything, but the investigation was complete and no clues related to the Zhang family were found. Now that rebels have appeared in Jianning, the Zhang family''s case has been temporarily put on hold. Yes, it was only temporarily put on hold, not withdrawn. Therefore, most officials in the court were not surprised that Zhang Shilang stepped forward to take charge of the matter. If Mr. Zhang makes a meritorious service this time. Then, the Zhang family''s situation will get better. Qin Chi stood out of the queue and bowed to Emperor Ming Cheng, "I have something to say, and I beg your Majesty''s permission." "That''s right!" Emperor Ming Cheng said. Qin Chi said honestly: "If I remember correctly, Minister Zhang is still a suspect. Although Your Majesty is kind and has not ordered him to go home and be grounded, he can be allowed to negotiate with the rebels. Who can guarantee that he is loyal to Your Majesty?" Isn''t there someone else? Therefore, I object to Zhang Shilang taking on this important role." "Qin Qi''an, you are going too far!" Zhang Shilang was so angry that his veins bulged, "I, Zhang Zhilu, have been loyal to His Majesty for decades. How can I, a young boy like you, be able to slander you with just one or two words? I think you are the most suspicious! People kill you every day. Why didnt I see you dead? "I, Qin Qi''an, live an honest life. I am worthy of heaven, and I am not humbled by others." Qin Chi said loudly, with clear and sharp eyes, "On the contrary, you Zhang family, dare to say that you are clean?" "You, you..." Mr. Zhang was so angry that he was speechless for a moment. Others look at the eyes and the nose and the heart. Pretend you didn''t hear the argument between the two. Emperor Mingcheng, who was sitting on the dragon chair above, did not move. Instead, Jixiang approached Emperor Mingcheng and whispered in his ear, "Your Majesty, I suddenly remembered something. I heard an old man in the palace say something before. Yes, when the late emperor was still alive, a daughter of the Zhang family was sent to the East Palace..." Hearing this, Emperor Ming Cheng''s pupils shrank fiercely, and his eyes were like daggers shot at Zhang Shilang, "Come here! Take Zhang Shilang to the Xing tribe, and I will also capture the entire Zhang family and put them in prison." "No! Your Majesty is wronged!" Zhang Shilang was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed vigorously to beg for mercy, "Your Majesty''s loyalty to you is a lesson to heaven and earth. Don''t let yourself be deceived by the treacherous minister. Then Qin Qi''an is not a good person... Hmm..." The guards who came forward to drag him blocked Shilang Zhang''s mouth, and then dragged him left and right out of the palace. Chapter 401 The food delivery person is missing Chapter 401 The food delivery person is missing "Wait a minute! Your Majesty, you can''t just throw someone into jail based on Qin Qian''s few guesses. How should the world view you?" Mr. Wen Ge stood up at this time to speak for Mr. Zhang, "I beg your Majesty to take back your decree." Emperor Mingcheng looked sharply and said, "You want to go in and accompany him?" Mr. Wen Ge felt cold all over and knelt down, "I don''t dare. Please calm down, Your Majesty." At this time he regretted standing up to plead for mercy. During the conversation between the monarch and his ministers, Zhang Shilang had been dragged out by the guards. Deliberations continued. The choice has been pending. Emperor Mingcheng glanced at all the ministers coldly and asked who had taken the initiative to go, but no one came out. The time for the court meeting came to noon in the midst of suffering, and some courtiers who had not eaten breakfast were so hungry that their stomachs growled. Everyone hopes that the candidates will be determined quickly so that they can be rescued. Looking at Emperor Ming Cheng''s posture today, he will not withdraw from the court if he is not sure of the candidates. Among the civil servants standing at the back, one stood out. Dong Xingde knelt down and asked for the order, "The humble minister is Dong Xingde, the Prime Minister of the Right Temple of Dali Temple. He is willing to go to Jianning to share the worries of my king." Qin Chi glanced back at Dong Xingde. He did not expect that Dong Xingde would come forward. This was not a good job. The master behind the rebels was He Liangun, and it was impossible to be recruited. Since people are now in the main hall, Qin Chi has no chance to mention Dong Xingde. After some discussion. The job officially fell to Dong Xingde. Dong Xingde was born as a scholar, and with his current rank of official residence, he was a suitable candidate. Emperor Ming Cheng couldn''t wait to go to court. The civil and military officials respectfully saw off the emperor, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. The hungry officials waited for the superior to go first, and then followed him out. Just as Qin Chi stepped out of the hall''s threshold, he was accidentally bumped by a young eunuch. The little **** was so frightened that he apologized profusely. Qin Chi rolled up his sleeves and dismissed the person casually. After walking a few steps, a few people followed him. Wang Shilang, Jiang Qiwen and others were all officials from the Ministry of Industry. Qin Chi asked: "What are you doing with me?" "Sir, why have I ever been sorry before? I hope you can forgive me for once." Wang Shilang took two steps back and bowed deeply. Qin Chi''s eyes stayed on Wang Shilang for two breaths, and then looked at the other doctors from the Ministry of Industry. Uneasiness was almost written on their faces, "Okay, okay, who do you think I am? What happened to Zhang Shilang?" But it has nothing to do with me, Im not that capable yet, its the Zhang familys own suicide. Wang Shilang immediately stood up straight and approached Qin Chi carefully, "Sir, do you mean there is something else going on here?" "Of course." Qin Chi knew that these guys were frightened by Zhang Shilang''s incident. They really shouldn''t be worried about it, but they were entangled in what they shouldn''t be worried about. For a knowledgeable person, isn''t Daxia''s demise the most worrying thing at the moment? The Jianning rebels felt a little oppressive to most officials in the DPRK, but not much. Perhaps these people have blind confidence in Daxia. I thought that the rebels'' matter was just a difficult problem, but not one that was difficult to solve. A catastrophe may be coming, but we still dont know. At noon. Not many people go back to the Yamen to work, most of them eat first. Qin Chi went over and saw Qin Ba and Lao Huo. The two of them waited boredly for Qin Chi. Qin Ba approached Qin Chi and said in a low voice: "Sir, the lunch at home today has not been delivered yet. It has been more than two quarters." Qin Chi''s eyes darkened slightly, "Let''s go back home to eat." "Okay, let me drive the carriage over." Qin Ba turned around and went to where the carriage was parked. These days, Lao Li suffered a head injury and was recuperating. The person who temporarily became a driver was Qin Ba. Along the way back, they didn''t meet anyone who came to deliver food, and they didn''t see anyone until they got home. Qin Ba saw Old Man Hong standing guard in front of the door and asked in a low voice: "Uncle Hong, why didn''t you deliver food to the young master today?" "No?" Old Man Hong was shocked, "Eleven and Twelve are going to see them off!" "Impossible, I didn''t see anyone." Qin Ba said firmly. Usually, the two secret guards who go to deliver the food are two secret guards who go from darkness to light. They are sent to prevent someone from playing tricks and adding drugs to the food. Now it seems that the two of them are missing? Qin Chi got off the carriage and soon learned about this. He curled up his lips and sneered, "The other party can no longer hold it any longer." Immediately arrange for someone to investigate the matter. He strode into the mansion. When a person returns to the house, the guards no longer need to follow him. Lao Huo immediately went to the kitchen, and Qin Ba also went to the kitchen to ask the kitchen to prepare some food for Qin Chi. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi walked on the corridor and looked at the door of the main hall from a distance. There was a strange maid guarding him, and his steps stopped. The maid guarding the hall also discovered Qin Chi. The maid lowered her head and entered the hall. Just when Qin Chi turned around, he saw Old Man Hong chasing after him in a hurry. Qin Chi looked towards the main hall and asked, "Uncle Hong, are there guests at home today?" Just now, Old Man Hong was in a hurry to arrange for people to investigate the disappearance. He forgot to remind Qin Chi that a guest was coming to the house, so he hurriedly chased after her, "Go back to the young master, Miss Wu and Miss Zhang are here today to look for Madam." "It''s them again?" Qin Chi frowned. He knew very well what these two women were thinking. Instead of going to the hall, he wanted to go to the study instead. Passing through a moon gate is a courtyard with some decorative flowers and plants planted in it. Qin Chi did not go directly through the courtyard, but walked along the corridor. Just halfway through, a woman behind me suddenly said "ouch", followed by another groan. It seemed like someone had fallen down. Qin Chi stopped, turned around and looked back. Suddenly, under the Moon Gate, he saw a woman half lying on the ground. She was wearing a pink coat and a light green skirt. She screamed in pain when she fell, and then she frowned, delicate and delicate. Unable to cry, he raised his watery eyes and looked at Qin Chi. The two are not far apart. There was a distance of several feet, so Qin Chi could see clearly. With just one glance, Qin Chi knew who this woman was. Today''s visitors are young ladies from the Wu and Zhang families. He has seen Wu Jingyao, but not Zhang Yanzi. Qin Yi in the dark was extremely annoyed. Seeing the woman chasing after the young master and about to cross the Moon Gate, Qin Yi hit Zhang Yanzi''s ankle with a stone. His intention was to stop Zhang Yanzi and also to remind Qin Chi that there was someone behind him. But in the current situation, Qin Yi felt that the development was not right. Zhang Yanzi fell down and became embarrassed, but she reacted too quickly and straightened her posture. She had a pitiful look on her face. Qin Yi realized that she was very beautiful. Chu Chu''s pitiful look is even more beautiful. He doubted whether his young master could withstand it? Especially when the young master looks back and sees such a beautiful woman suffering, will he feel pity for her? Chapter 402 Not understanding the style Chapter 402: Unable to understand the style "Sir, I accidentally fell down. It hurts..." Zhang Yanzi''s beautiful eyes were filled with mist, but her voice was very charming. What normal man wouldnt be confused after hearing this? Qin Chi''s face darkened when he heard this, and he said indifferently: "Qin Yi, hand the person over to Lao Huo and ask him to be sent to the Prison Department Prison." After leaving this meaningless sentence, Qin Chi turned around and strode away. Yes, in Zhang Yanzi''s case, Qin Chi''s words were meaningless. At this time, she didn''t know that the Zhang family was going to have a big deal, and she was secretly angry at Qin Chi for not understanding the style. But when he saw Qin Chi striding away, he felt angry and hurriedly got up to catch up. "Sir, don''t go, slave" There are no outsiders here. Zhang Yanzi didn''t have any reservation at all. As long as she got close to Qin Chi and jumped into his arms, Qin Chi would marry her even if he didn''t want to marry her for the sake of reputation. He was hit **** the back of the neck. Zhang Yanzi was knocked unconscious and her body fell softly onto the bluestone floor. "ah!" A woman screamed suddenly, "Catch the thief! There is a thief in the house! Someone wants to catch my young lady!" It was Zhang Yanzi''s maid who was hiding in the dark. She discovered the scene where Qin Yi knocked Zhang Yanzi unconscious and screamed in shock. Qin Yi wanted to go up and drag Zhang Yanzi out. The maid rushed to protect the master, but Qin Yi ducked out of the way, raised her hand and knocked her unconscious again. "ah!" Another startle. Qin Yi looked at the people hurriedly approaching not far away, and they turned out to be Wu Jingyao and Song Jin. When Wu Jingyao saw Zhang Yanzi''s maid, she suddenly came in and whispered something in her ear. Zhang Yanzi''s face burst into surprise, and she quickly covered it up, pretending to go out to relieve herself. When Zhang Yanzi went out, the more Wu Jingyao thought about it, the more wrong she became. He immediately thought of Qin Chi. Wu Jingyao also found a reason to ask Song Jin to accompany her for a walk. Before Song Jin agreed, she heard the screams from the Zhang family''s maid. Then the maid was heard shouting to catch the thief. Song Jin was originally impatient to deal with Wu Zhang''s two daughters, so he only greeted her now in order not to be rude. She had obviously brought tea to see her off twice, but they just pretended not to see her. He couldn''t tell them openly and let them leave. This is the frustration of civilized people when they encounter rogues. The two girls came to the door unexpectedly. Song Jin originally wanted to make an excuse not to see her, but they said they had something serious to do, but after sitting there for so long, they didn''t see anything to say. They always talked about something and nothing. Okay now, something happened? Song Jin was also surprised when he came over in a hurry and saw this scene. Wu Jingyao subconsciously stepped back and let Song Jin stand in front of her, "Sister Song, this thief is too rampant. Call the guards in the house to catch him!" "He is not a thief." Song Jin turned around and explained. After saying that, the man walked over. Qin Yi saluted Song Jin and said, "Madam, that woman is secretly going to your study. I don''t know if she is a spy. Your Majesty asked your subordinates to send her to Xingbu Prison." "Send to prison?" Song Jin was surprised, "It''s really your family... No, is it really my husband-in-law''s order?" "As for Madam, yes." Qin Yi made a salute, but did not raise his head or look directly at Song Jin''s face. At this time, they are not the only ones here. Some guards heard the screams of catching thieves and came over. Among them was Lao Huo, who was holding a sea bowl in his hand. The food in the bowl was piled high, compared with the guards who rushed over eagerly. Lao Huo was obviously not doing his job properly, "What''s going on?" "Young Master asked you to send the person to Xingbu Prison." Qin Yi answered Lao Huo''s words. As soon as Lao Huo saw the two women still lying on the ground, he recognized them as members of the Zhang family. He immediately understood what Qin Chi meant and pointed to a few guards, "Move them to the carriage and wait a moment." I''ll send you to prison after I finish my meal." Four guards stepped forward and lifted Zhang Yanzi and her maid. Without any sloppiness, he headed towards the gate. Seeing this scene, Wu Jingyao was greatly shocked. Wasn''t she just trying to seduce Qin Qian by playing tricks on her daughter''s family? It was necessary to make a fuss to the point of being sent to prison, and he also pointed out that he was from the Xing Department. Only felons from the imperial court were eligible to enter. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Sister Song, isn''t this good? Is it necessary to make things like this? Miss Zhang is also young and ignorant, so she was confused for a while." Wu Jingyao stood next to Song Jin and said with strength. As she spoke, her voice trembled slightly. How scary is this? Song Jin glanced sideways at Wu Jingyao, opened her lips and said, "I thought you were very brave, so you were scared like this? Although you two didn''t express your intention to come to Qin''s house, please don''t treat people as fools. In the future, , Miss Wu, dont come to the door again. Wu Jingyao''s expression changed again after hearing this. Song Jin turned around gently and said to Qin Qi next to her: "Ah Qi, send Miss Wu out." Wu Jingyao was so angry that she folded her fingers and held the handkerchief tightly. She was frightened by Qin Qian''s behavior just now, but now she was angered by Song Jin''s attitude. What should a vulgar peasant woman pretend to be? She is a young lady from the Hou Mansion. He has lowered his status to befriend her. He is just ungrateful. How dare he embarrass her? No matter how Wu Jingyao thinks in her heart, no matter how distorted her thoughts are, with Qin Qi staring at her, she can only hold back her anger and force out a dry smile, "Sister Song has something going on at home, so I won''t be able to nag her until later. Lets talk later. Who are you talking to? Song Jin''s back has disappeared at the Moon Gate. At this time, Song Jin hurriedly came to the study. The study door is open. When he walked to the threshold, he saw Qin Chi sitting in front of the desk, as if checking something. The moment she entered the study, Qin Chi raised his head and looked at Song Jin, "Madam, are you here for Miss Zhang''s family?" "I heard that you want to send someone to the Ministry of Punishment? Will the imperial censor refer you to a copy of this?" Song Jin knew that if Zhang Yanzi was imprisoned in Xingbu Prison just because of her actions today, it would inevitably lead to suspicion that Qin Chi was bullying others. Song Jin came here not to speak for Zhang Yanzi, but to care about him, which made Qin Chi feel better. "It''s okay, Xingbu would like to thank me for saving them a lot of trouble." Then Qin Chi told the Zhang family''s situation. Song Jin suddenly became speechless. I never thought there was such a big thing inside. The Zhang family escaped once. Originally, if Minister Zhang had not stepped forward, Emperor Ming Cheng would not have thought of him for a while, but he insisted on stepping forward and wanted to take over the job of negotiating with Jianning. Qin Chi knew that the Zhang family belonged to the former crown prince. It is impossible for people to let Mr. Zhang pass. Otherwise, if Zhang Shilang and the rebels cooperated internally and externally, wouldn''t it be a trap for the soldiers who were about to accompany them? Therefore, Qin Chi stood up and opposed it. It was not Qin Chi who directly provoked Emperor Ming Cheng to deal with the Zhang family, but the words of Ji Xiang, the current Supervisor of Ceremonies. The person that Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty hated and feared the most in his life was the former Crown Prince He Liankai. It can be said that this person was his greatest enemy. The Zhang family is actually involved with him? Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty made it clear that he would rather kill someone than let him go. Chapter 403 arsenic Chapter 403 Arsenic "Master!" Qin Yi came quickly, "I have something important to report." You''ll know something important as soon as you see him. Song Jin automatically exited the study. After going out, they found out what happened from Mu Ting''s mouth. Something happened to the two people who went to the Yamen to deliver food, and their bodies were found in an alley not far from Qin''s house. "That was not the first crime scene." Mu Ting lowered her voice and continued, "The two were interrogated before they died. The cause of death was suicide by taking poison. The murderer abandoned the body in the alley as a provocation to Mr. Qin." Song Jin''s mood sank, "Tell people in the house not to go out recently." Mu Ting responded and went to do it. I just arrived at the wing where Niuniu lives. Seeing the little maid practicing Chinese calligraphy seriously, at her age, she should be hired by a female teacher to teach her, but the current situation does not allow it. Song Jin could only take over the teaching in person. When teaching her children to read, she was also a little distracted. No matter how turbulent the situation was outside, Qin Chi blocked the door from her home. Song Jin had few opportunities to face the danger head-on. Now the enemy has even targeted the food delivery person. What does this mean? It shows that the situation is already serious. This situation was indeed worse than Song Jin expected. Qin Chi felt very sad knowing that the two secret guards were dead. Today he also received a secret letter from Huizhou. It was written by his uncle Helian Pu. The letter stated that his parents, who were far away in Huizhou, had been attacked repeatedly. If he hadn''t made a plan, he might have lost his parents now, and then he would most likely want Ding You. He Lianpu found out about this and took the two of them to the hot spring village in Huangshan Mountain. Externally, he is a tiger who needs someone to take care of him. The number of spies following He Lian Pu has more than doubled. Finally, He Lian Pu asked him to go ahead and do it, but he had to settle his wife and children first. One can imagine the anger in Qin Chi''s heart. After a long time, he suppressed the anger rising in his heart and tried to stay calm, "Qin Yi, did the Zhang family collect a batch of food and medicinal materials before?" "Yes." Qin Yi knew that their people were keeping an eye on this matter, "Originally, the grain and medicinal materials were stored in Zhang''s warehouse. Later, a group of people moved the things overnight. Because the quantity was too large, the transfer location was not far from Zhang''s warehouse. A small part was transported to the south, and someone from the Chamber of Commerce has already robbed it. " "Bring this matter to the Minister of Xingbu. The Zhang family is suspected of purchasing food and medicinal materials for the rebels." Qin Chi actually went to the underworld to eat the evil. If you just do this, there will inevitably be conflicts. Now is not the time for him to be exposed. Qin Yi responded yes. Then Qin Chi asked: "Qin Ba, is the governor of water transportation a person of the former prince?" "There is no evidence for this." "No evidence is needed. A large number of strangers came to Zhangjiawan. His failure to report is proof. I want him dead!" Qin Chi''s eyes were filled with murderous intent. If he didn''t fight back, those people would think he had no temper. While leaving, Qin Yi hesitated and said, "Madam''s maternal grandfather''s family is a subordinate of the Governor of Water Transport." This matter would be quite troublesome to pursue. Qin Chi stared at Qin Yi without saying a word. Qin Yi''s scalp was numb when he saw him, and he immediately accepted the order, bowed his hands and retreated. The lunch meal was delivered from the kitchen. Qin Chi ate something in the study and then went to the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry. As soon as he arrived at the Yamen, he saw Wang Qiwen coming over to please him, leading the way and serving tea and water to Qin Chi. "Sir, thank you for your hard work. If you have anything to do, you can ask your subordinate to help, such as Zhang Zhilu''s previous work, etc." Wang Qiwen pointed to the place where Minister Zhang was sitting. What does this mean? The position of right servant! Qin Chi smiled calmly and said: "Who knows what will happen in the future? It all depends on one''s ability." "Your Excellency, you are right." Wang Qiwen opened the fan again and fanned Qin Chi. The corner of Wang Shilang''s mouth curled up. Why didn''t he know that Wang Qiwen was still a talent before? He was really ashamed of himself for his flattery. It''s a pity that he thought wrongly. For the position of right-hand minister, no one could be promoted to this guy, because this guy had just become the doctor and had not made any outstanding political achievements, so it was impossible to be him in terms of qualifications. Not everyone is Qin Qian! Qin Qi''an also followed the path of Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. If he followed the normal promotion path, he, Qin Qi''an, might still be a editor in the Hanlin Academy, and Dong Xingde would have been sitting on the bench for several years without you seeing him. Qin Chi held the tea in his hand and was about to bring it to his lips when he suddenly saw something different on the rim of the tea bowl. It was slightly different from the past. He reached out and wiped it, and there was a layer of white powder on his fingertips. He came up and smelled it again. Colorless and odorless? Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! At the beginning of Qin Chi''s behavior, Wang Shilang and Wang Qiwen on the side were nothing. When he saw the white on Qin Chi''s fingertips, Wang Qiwen''s heart skipped a beat. He was the one who poured the tea! "S-lord? What is that?" Wang Qiwen pointed his finger, his voice trembling. Wang Shilang was also extremely nervous, his scalp was numb and he asked: "Someone tampered with your Lord''s cup?" Qin Chi put down the tea bowl and rubbed the white powder on his fingertips. "It''s really odorless and colorless. There''s only one thing that can poison me to death." Qin Ba and Lao Huo were already checking the tea sets. Lao Huo also found white powder on the tea set. This powder is colorless and odorless and is easy to ignore. Qin Chi asked what it was, but Lao Huo also thought of it. Qin Ba knew the same. Not long after, the official was called and the imperial doctor was called. The person who came turned out to be Dr. Zhuo. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty heard that Qin Chi was almost poisoned again, so he asked Imperial Doctor Zhuo to come over and take a look. After examination, Dr. Zhuo said with certainty: "This is arsenic, also called white arsenic. It is rare to see it. Most of the ones sold on the market are arsenic." Arsenic comes in two colors. One red, one white. To put it simply, arsenic is red, also called crane top red. Ripe arsenic is white and is refined through a process. It is much more expensive than arsenic bought in shops. After an interrogation. Lao Huo found out a handyman in the tea room. The servant''s face turned pale with fright. After a few interrogations, he confessed that someone had caught his family and forced him to do it. Qin Chi received another wave of sympathy. This month, Qin Chi''s assassination has been reported not less than ten times but seven or eight times, but the yamen have searched and searched, but there are no clues. There is a rumor circulating secretly that there must be an accomplice among those investigating the case. This rumor is very credible. Officials from Dali Temple, Xingbu and Jingzhao Prefecture. You look at me, I look at you, I always feel that the people around me may be spies, and I feel secretly vigilant. After Dr. Zhuo left. Emperor Mingcheng received a report from Jin Yiwei in the palace, "Is it true that someone has killed Qin Qian again?" "Reporting to Your Majesty, this matter is true. The handyman has been imprisoned. His family disappeared a few days ago. Currently, it is said that he went to the countryside to visit relatives. According to my judgment, there is a high probability that he has been killed and silenced." Jin Yiwei The commander responded respectfully. Emperor Ming Cheng was furious, his throat felt itchy, and he coughed repeatedly. Then he waved his hand to signal the other party to retreat. Chapter 404 One wave comes after another Chapter 404: One wave comes after another Qin Mansion. Song Jin sat on the chair. Watching Sanlang playing with Niuniu and Guaiguai. "Sister-in-law, what happened at home? Brother, why don''t you allow me to go out again?" Sanlang was at the drug store, but Qin Chi sent someone to call him back. Song Jin thought of a question, "It''s a mess outside. I''m afraid you will become a target. Today, two guards at home who went to deliver food to your eldest brother were killed." Saburo''s eyes widened, "Who did it?" "I don''t know. I think your eldest brother has already reported it to the official." Song Jin knew that in this kind of human life case, Qin Chi would probably report it to the official for handling. They don''t know that Qin Chi is in trouble again in the Yamen. If they knew, they wouldn''t Sit still. Qin Chi was assassinated outside. Most of the time, she would not go home and talk to Song Jin, so as not to worry her every day. That is, Mu Ting had the source of the information, so Song Jin would know about it. Song Jin knew that Qin Chi was in danger. So I tried to stay at home as much as possible on weekdays and not to cause trouble to him. Sanlang said again: "Big brother asked me to go back to my hometown, isn''t it also because of this matter?" "He''s worried about your safety." Song Jinsheng was afraid that Sanlang might not hear what he said, so he added a few more words, "It is difficult for your eldest brother to live a stable life in the officialdom. Sometimes he offends some people without knowing it. In order not to cause trouble for him, I always He rarely goes out. He keeps you from going out because he is worried that his enemies will kill you or capture you to threaten him." "The capital is so scary." Saburo shuddered. But you are afraid, why are your eyes so bright? Song Jin looked at him seriously. Until Saburo repeatedly promised that he would not go out recently without his eldest brother''s permission. I played with Niuniu for a long time. Sanlang sat on the chair next to Song Jin and offered tea to Song Jin as if to please, "Sister-in-law, when I came back, I heard a rumor outside that my elder brother had a heart as iron as iron and even knocked out a pretty beauty. In Xingbu Prison? I almost started arguing with the other party, but the other party''s assurance made me feel uneasy. " "It''s true." Song Jin took a sip of tea. Sanlang was dumbfounded after hearing this, "How is that possible? I don''t believe it. My eldest brother is a gentleman. He would definitely not do such a thing. It must be that woman''s problem." Song Jin smiled softly and said, "Yes, you are right, it is the woman''s problem." Sanlang breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest and said, "It''s okay, it''s okay." Then, he asked excitedly: "What happened? Sister-in-law, please tell me." "Niuniu knows." A clear and childish little voice sounded. The little girl with a double bun was looking at Sanlang with wide eyes, "Uncle Santang, Niuniu knows that that girl is naughty and is here to steal her father from Niuniu!" "puff-" Song Jin almost choked on her tea. Seeing Sanlang''s big eyes full of gossip, Song Jin quickly explained: "Don''t listen to the child, she is still young and doesn''t understand these things. That Miss Zhang will be sent to Xingbu Prison because the Zhang family committed a crime, Your Majesty Order to confiscate the house." Saburo''s jaw dropped. Niu Niu touched her chin with a confused look on her face. Mu Ting came again at this time, her expression was not good, and she whispered in Song Jin''s ear: "My boss, I just received the news that something happened in the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry, saying that someone poisoned Mr. Qin." "What?" Song Jin was surprised. Mu Ting said quickly: "Master Qin is fine. He didn''t drink the highly poisonous tea." Song Jin''s heart beat violently with fear. This is really a wave of ups and downs, and things are coming one after another. There are a lot of worrying things today. If Qin Chi goes to the Yamen on duty, if he is not paying attention, he may get the other person. The way. Under normal circumstances, upset people do tend to act carelessly. Fortunately, Qin Chi has a strong mentality. Sanlang sat close and vaguely heard Mu Ting''s words. At this time, he was too shocked to speak. He had heard before that Qin Chi was in a dangerous situation and had many enemies. He didn''t feel it intuitively. He had never faced it directly after coming here for so long. In fact, he felt that it was more dangerous to be with Song Jin. After all, he Coming to Beijing with Song Jin was a thrilling journey. Fortunately, Song Jin rarely goes out. Sanlang has been in the capital for so long, but he hasn''t spent much time with Qin Chi. Qin Chi is either in the government office or very busy. On the same day, Qin Chi came home late again. When night fell, he returned under the moonlight. Song Jin was waiting for him at home. After Qin Chi washed his face with warm water and wiped his hands, Song Jin brought tea and asked him to rinse his mouth. After that, he asked the kitchen to bring Qin Chi''s meal for tonight. Had dinner with Qin Chi. Song Jin served another soup to replenish the body. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi swallowed the terribly bitter concoction without changing his expression, put down the empty medicine bowl, and then sighed slightly: "Madam, go to rest early. I have to go to the study to deal with some things later." "Don''t you have anything to say to me?" Song Jin thought that when he came back, he would mention the poisoning by the Yamen to her. Qin Chi pursed his lips and put his arm around her shoulders, "Don''t worry, I cherish my life more than anyone else." Its just forced by circumstances. At this time, there was someone waiting outside the door. Qin Chi got up and went to the study. No one knew who he met tonight. Late at night, the Qin family received a message from Fei Ge. Old Man Hong hurried to the study and said solemnly: "Sir, the people sent to rescue Song Kuan failed." Hearing this, Qin Chi was writing rapidly. As soon as I heard the news, I suddenly pressed the pen tip hard and the ink stained. What I just wrote was scrapped and I had to write it again. Qin Chi didn''t expect the news to be so bad. Originally, he wanted to tell Song Jin about the incident after he rescued the people, but now it was even harder to say more, "How many people have we lost?" "Seventeen people were injured." Old Man Hong reported with a serious face. Qin Chi''s heart suddenly sank, "So it''s time for me to go to Beijing." "I don''t know. The news is that he has disappeared." "Lost?" This made Qin Chi unable to even think of a second rescue. By the time he finds clues about the other party, he may have already reached the capital''s territory, and it will be even harder to save him. Qin Chi looked at Old Man Hong and ordered: "Keep this matter confidential to those who know about it, and do not let it reach Madam''s ears." "Okay, sir." Old Man Hong knew that he wanted to hide Song Jin. The former prince was so powerful that Qin Chi himself did not dare to face him head-on, let alone the rabble in Song Jin''s hands? Qin Chi took another piece of white paper and started writing a letter one by one. While writing, he said coldly: "Uncle Hong, someone over there in Huizhou attacked my parents. Fortunately, I have arrangements." They protected them and didn''t let the other party succeed. I''m a little worried about my uncle. If something happens to my uncle, the news will spread to the northwest..." Old Man Hong was shocked. This was a huge blow to the prince. Chapter 405 propose reconciliation Chapter 405 Proposal for Reconciliation Qin Chi ordered Old Man Hong to mobilize some more people to protect He Lian Pu, and then dismissed them. He leaned back on the chair tiredly, pinched the bridge of his nose tiredly, and pressed his temples. In the dead of night, thoughts are more active. Qin Chi knew that his situation was dangerous. As his wife and children, it is also very dangerous. Those people in Yan Jiangnan have paid attention to his life experience and have already killed his family. When they attack the imperial city, Qin Chi, his wife and children will be one of the opponent''s must-kill targets. The letter from his uncle asked him to settle his wife and children as soon as possible. Qin Chi stood up, straightened his clothes, and walked out of the study, heading back to his bedroom. Standing in front of the bedroom door. A yellowish light shines through the window screen. The flames on the wick swayed gently, reflecting the figure of a woman sitting in front of the lamp. She didn''t look like she was doing needlework in the past. She just sat quietly, as if in a trance. Qin Chi raised his fair and slender hand and touched the door panel. He seemed to be struggling in his heart, but finally he pushed the ajar door open with gentle force. The door creaks. This alarmed Song Jin who was sitting in front of the lamp in trance. Song Jin raised her eyes to look at the door, and happened to meet Qin Chi''s gaze looking at her. "Don''t you want me to go to bed first?" Qin Chi''s warm voice seemed to be blaming, but also revealed a different kind of tenderness, "Fortunately, I went back to my room. If I didn''t go back, wouldn''t you have to sit there all night?" "I can''t sleep with this in mind." Song Jin stood up and faced Qin Chi, passed him and closed the door, then turned around and followed Qin Chi into the inner room. The room was silent except for the faint sound of two people''s footsteps. Qin Chi stopped, his eyes fell on the lights on the lampstand, but he did not look back at Song Jin. After a moment, he broke the peace in the room: "Madam, you take the children back to Huizhou first, and I will also give you a share of divorce." Book in case of emergency. Song Jin suspected that his ears were hallucinating. For a long time, she didn''t come back to her senses. She was digesting what she just heard and made sure again that she was not dreaming. Qin Chi slowly turned around. Because he was carrying the only lampstand in the room. Song Jin couldn''t see the expression on his face clearly, but she also knew that what he just said was not her illusion, but his own meaning. She suppressed the sourness rising in her heart and said, "Can you give me a reason?" ? "Have you read that appeal?" "See it." "Most of the ten sins above can be traced. After the death of the late emperor, Prince Kai was probably not dead. He took his remaining troops and lurked in an attempt to overthrow the imperial court... There is also the fifth sin, which many people do not believe. , After all, it is known throughout the world that His Majesty favors Prince Xinrui, but in fact, my grandfather has not returned to the capital for twenty years. " What''s the reason? After something happened to the Li family that year, Prince Rui rushed back to Beijing from the northwest and personally started investigating. At first, they suspected that it was an enemy spy, but it turned out that the former prince Yu Dang had been plotting to murder his children. Later, during the investigation, he accidentally found the sealed files of Jin Yiwei and learned that Jin Yiwei had received the news a long time ago, but chose to stand aside. Prince Rui immediately went to the palace to question Emperor Ming Cheng, and a gap arose between the brothers. At that time, the Great Xia Dynasty was at a time when everything was in ruins and was waiting to be revitalized, and the political situation was not stable. If word of the brothers'' rebellion spreads, the Great Xia Dynasty will inevitably be in turmoil again. Among them are the works of the late prince Yu Dang, one for revenge and the other for alienation. Others have bad intentions and cannot prevent Emperor Ming Cheng from cooperating. For the sake of the overall interests of the world, Prince Rui also did not want to fall into the scheme of the mastermind behind the scenes. He did not openly fall out with Emperor Mingcheng and left the northwest again. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty began to wipe out the remaining parties of Prince Kai. Therefore, the relationship between Emperor Mingcheng and Prince Rui actually had to maintain a superficial peace. It was rumored that they were brothers and brothers, and had a deep relationship, but in fact they no longer existed. When Qin Chi got the evidence of the Liu family''s rebellion, he did not find any way to pass the evidence to Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. In addition to discovering that the former prince''s influence had infiltrated into the court, and that he himself had not yet become a scholar, how many of the officials in the court were humans and how many were ghosts? I don''t know. Even if the evidence is sent up, it may not reach Emperor Mingcheng''s hands. This is not what Qin Chi wants to see. What''s more, this is not a dispute between two parties, but a competition between three parties. Qin Chi must participate in this general trend of the world. Qin Chi told Song Jin the pros and cons, "I have a way to break the situation, and I have been planning for it for several years, but things are changing rapidly, and good or bad luck is unpredictable. I don''t want my wife to be in the same danger with me." "I won''t agree!" Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Song Jin did not accept the reason given by Qin Chi, "Husband and wife are one body, so what''s the point of running away separately when disaster strikes? I think husband and wife should advance and retreat together, and share life and death together." "Madam, reconciliation is only a temporary measure." Qin Chi never thought about truly reconciling with Song Jin, "When the world is peaceful, our family will reunite again." "Who can you deceive? You and I have been tied together for a long time. It doesn''t matter whether we are in peace or not. If something happens to you, my child and I will not survive. If you really want to protect me and my child, the only way The way is to win, rather than to make excuses." Song Jin didn''t feel angry, he just said these words calmly. Qin Chi knew that what she said was reasonable, but he already had a way to deal with it. He said resolutely: "I will find a reason that no one else can doubt. The capital will soon be in chaos. You must take your children and leave the capital as soon as possible." Song Jin was the moment Qin Chi approached him. Finally saw his eyes clearly. He asked her to take the children and leave, and even proposed to divorce. He was not here to discuss with her, but a matter that had already been decided. "I don''t understand. You said that for the safety of me and the children, then it would be fine for me to take the children and leave Beijing." , why must we divorce? This is indeed a bit unreasonable. What is Qin Chi guarding against? What other plans does he have that Song Jin doesn''t know about? Qin Chi''s eyes were stagnant, and he looked at Song Jin intently. Seeing the tenacity and stubbornness hidden in her eyes, he pulled her into his arms, stroked her back with his big hands, and brought his lips close to her ears. Next to him, he whispered softly: "In order to survive, I not only want He Liankai to die, but also want Emperor Cheng to never threaten us again..." Qin Chi did not tell Song Jin how to plan the plan in detail, but he told Song Jin his final purpose. He wanted to destroy He Lian Kai and overthrow Emperor Ming Cheng. He just wanted the two to fight first, and then he would reap the benefits. However, it is not easy to be a fisherman, and it is very likely that the boat will be destroyed and people will die. Song Jin didn''t need to think too much to understand the risks involved. Once he failed, Qin Chi would be killed, and his family members would not be able to escape death either. Qin Chi continued to whisper in a voice that only Song Jin could hear: "Heli cannot completely save you and your children, it is just an opportunity to send you away early." Chapter 406 expedient Chapter 406 Expedient Measures Song Jin suddenly understood. Qin Chi was not completely sure that he would survive this game, so he could only find a way to arrange his wife and children in advance. But he probably made this decision not long after he got up. He had never thought about letting her and the child leave the capital earlier, otherwise he would not have let her come to the capital. What happened in recent days? Think back. The guard who delivered the food was killed, Zhang Yanzi was sent to jail, Qin Chi was poisoned in the Yamen, and he told the people in the house not to go out if nothing happened? "One day, madam, when you hear bad news about me, I hope you won''t do anything about it, let alone set foot in the capital again. My only extravagant wish is that you and the child can be safe. If Daxia can''t stay, If you go down, you can go to sea. My wife has a fleet and a manpower, where can''t she go?" For the first time, Qin Chi could understand his mother''s feelings when he was not allowed to take the imperial examination. For parents. The child''s success is not the first priority, but the person''s survival is. His words struck Song Jin''s heart one by one, as if he were delivering his last words. Song Jin was so depressed by the heavy atmosphere that she could not speak. Water mist gradually appeared in her eyes, blocking her sight. Qin Chi hugged her without letting go, and slowly tightened his arms. It seemed like a long time passed. Qin Chifang''s voice was slightly hoarse as he said, "Madam, I may not fail." "You still have something to hide from me?" Song Jin had some doubts in his heart. Qin Chi kissed her ear and replied gently: "No, sending you and the child away is just a matter of circumstance." The only thing that was hidden was Song Kuan''s matter. The other party brought Song Kuan to the capital, and it was not difficult for Qin Chi to guess the other party''s intentions. Qin Chi didn''t want Song Jin to get involved. What would she do when the other party threatened her with her father''s life? What will be her situation then? Force her to choose between her father and him or even her children? No matter which side he chooses in the end, it will not be a good thing for Song Jin, and Qin Chi also doesn''t want Song Jin to fall into that situation. As long as he sends the person away in advance, He Liankai and Yan Jiangnan cannot use this to threaten Song Jin or take advantage of him. This matter was too cruel for Song Jin. Qin Chi made a decision and would not change it easily. The next day it was bright. Qin Chi put on his official robe again, simply took two steamed buns, and walked out while listening to Qin Ba''s official report. Qin Ba added: "Master Yan Xianqing invited the young master to go to the mansion for a gathering at noon. He said that Dong Xingde would also go there, and there would be several adults, mainly to give advice to Master Dong and analyze the situation in Jianning. " "In this case, I can''t refuse." Qin Chi knew that Dong Xingde had taken over Jianning''s job. He originally wanted to find an opportunity to give him a few words, and this happened to be an opportunity, so he said: "Go and ask someone to tell him that I will go." "Yes, my subordinate will do it now." Qin Ba summoned a boy and gave a few instructions in a low voice. The boy responded and went out. Qin Chi walked away without noticing. Song Jin woke up early and even watched him leave. And where she was standing, if you didn''t look carefully, you wouldn''t find anyone there. "Master, would you like to go to the kitchen and serve you breakfast?" Mu Ting yawned sleepily. Song Jin looked back at her and said, "No, you go pack your things. We may have to go back to Huizhou." "ah?" Mu Ting was so frightened that all the sleepy people ran away, "What do you mean by boss? Are you going back to Huizhou?" "Well, I''m going back to Huizhou." After Song Jin said this, he turned around and walked back to his dormitory. It wasn''t until she stepped into the house and closed the door that Mu Ting came back to her senses and murmured to herself: "Why do you want to go back to Huizhou all of a sudden?" Its okay not to understand. As Song Jin said, Mu Ting started to pack her luggage and notified others to pack their things. Before Song Jin returned to her room, she sat down at the desk and began to study ink. She quickly wrote a letter to Xing Lun and another to Song Jitao, asking him to sell all the medicinal materials in the shop to Shun''an Trading Company. Then close the shop. Xing Lun''s business in the capital was about to be discussed, and he was about to leave the capital. Song Jin never thought of leaving with Xing Lun at this time, but she was about to leave the capital, and she had to tell Xing Lun if the future situation was not good. Certain things are difficult to write down in a letter, so I can only make an appointment to meet him. Mu Ting came over and was arranged by Song Jin to deliver the letter. Song Jin stood in the bedroom, looking at the home he had carefully decorated, feeling very unwilling to do so. If she had a choice, she didn''t want to leave Beijing. She wanted to face Qin Chi together. Qin Chi himself wanted to protect her and the child, but he never thought that she also wanted him to be okay. Perhaps she didn''t even think that, with her indifferent temperament, she actually wanted to go forward and retreat with Qin Chi for a moment. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! There was no truth or falsehood in her heart about the matter of separation. To be at peace is to be at peace. What the future will bring, who knows? Song Jin didn''t want to gamble on the future, but at this moment, she didn''t want to leave. But people often couldn''t help themselves, so they had to simply pack their bags first. Walking to a cage, she opened the lock and took out the Luban box from inside. The box contained all Song Jin''s important things, and then he took out a large stack of banknotes from a hidden compartment on the dressing table. The money is too heavy, so its hard to carry too much... Time passed faster than she imagined, and it was afternoon in a blink of an eye. "Boss, Manager Xing is here." Mu Ting came to inform. Song Jin looked at Xing Lun, "You came very quickly. According to the time I calculated, I thought you would come tomorrow." "It''s a coincidence. I planned to come to say goodbye to my employer today. Who knew I would receive your letter." Xing Lun wanted to say that this was a coincidence, but after he had been here for a while, he noticed something was wrong with Song Jin''s mood. Maybe something happened. Due to Xing Lun''s status, Song Jin didn''t tell him, so he couldn''t take the initiative to ask. Song Jinping withdrew his servants and asked Mu Ting to guard the door. He went straight to the door and said: "There is probably going to be chaos in the capital. In order to protect me and the child, my husband asked me to make peace with him and take the child back to Huizhou as soon as possible. He said there will be people in Huizhou." Protect us." "Is it so serious? It has to go to the point of reconciliation." Xing Lun thought that the things involved must not be simple. Song Jin said helplessly: "It''s so serious. Even if we are reconciled, one day in the future, my children and I may have to move around and remain anonymous." The worst case scenario that Qin Chi imagined was that if what he had done was exposed, his family would be confiscated and his family might be exterminated. Song Jin can get away with Li, but the child cannot. Based on the consistent behavior of those in power, there is a high probability that the root cause will be eradicated. If the light does not work, the dark will come. Qin Chi gave Song Jin an idea. When the day comes when she is really desperate, she can take her children out to sea on a boat. ps: Please vote, my dear friends~ Chapter 407 Theres something going on at the Yan Mansion Chapter 407 There is something going on at the Yan Mansion When Song Jin and Xing Lun were discussing things. Someone came looking for Muting again outside. Mu Ting reported to Song Jin and went to see someone at the back door. After a while, she hurried over again, her face not looking good. "Tell me, what happened again?" The current situation is already very bad, and it doesn''t matter if it gets a little worse. Song Jin''s mentality is very stable at this time. Mu Ting hesitated whether to say it. He glanced at Xing Lun again. Xing Lun remained silent. In fact, he didn''t know what happened, but he knew that Song Jin was the master, and it was taboo to conceal things as a subordinate. Mu Ting followed Song Jin, and he believed that she knew how to measure things. Mu Ting lowered her head and said: "My boss, there is a gossip spreading outside. It is said that Mr. Qin went to the Yan Mansion for a visit at noon. He mistakenly entered a certain room and bumped into the Yan Mansion''s cousin changing clothes." As soon as these words came out. Song Jin''s expression was slightly stagnant. Xing Lun''s face darkened, "What''s next?" "The details are not clear. Later I heard that the cousin jumped into the lotus pond of Yan''s house and committed suicide and was rescued." The follow-up has not been spread yet, and this is what Mu Ting knows. Xing Lun paid attention to Song Jin''s expression. He found her calm and didn''t seem surprised. Song Jin asked: "Is this cousin of the Yan Mansion the eldest daughter of the Wu Bohou Mansion?" "Exactly, I heard that the Wu family has rushed to the Yan Mansion, so Mrs. Wu should go there in person. It is said that Qin Shangshu Mansion and Wu Bohou Mansion are probably going to get married. The Wu family is shameless, and Lord Qin may be Got tricked," Mu Ting said angrily. Qin Chi bumped into the eldest daughter of the Wu family changing her clothes, which undoubtedly ruined a woman''s innocence. It was natural for him to take responsibility. Song Jin asked Mu Ting to step aside first. Xing Lun comforted him: "Don''t be anxious, my master. As Mu Ting said, Lord Qin is most likely being plotted by someone." "Regardless of whether it is calculated or not, it is a fact to ruin a woman''s innocence. Besides, my husband-in-law was able to avoid several assassination attempts, but he couldn''t avoid the little tricks of the wife in the back house?" Song Jin suspected that this was what Qin Chi said last night , he will arrange the reasons. Could this be his plan? We have to wait until someone comes back to talk about it. Xing Lun didn''t know what Song Jin was thinking, so he subconsciously agreed with her words, "So, Mr. Qin just went with the flow and achieved good things?" Song Jin was speechless for a moment. The corner of Xing Lun''s mouth raised slightly, then quickly suppressed it, "My boss doesn''t know something. For a man, getting promoted, getting rich, and killing his wife is a happy life. As soon as he proposed to divorce, people spread the news outside. One cant help but wonder if Mr. Qin has had other thoughts for a long time? Hearing this, Song Jin fell silent. The secret guards with better hearing were standing outside the house to protect Song Jin. This guy named Xing doesnt want to live anymore! How dare you arrange for his son? Fortunately, Xing Lun and Song Jin had concluded their discussions and urgently needed to notify the personnel remaining in the capital to evacuate, and then send some people over to Song Jin. At this time, the atmosphere in Yan Mansion was very tense. Qin Chi chatted privately with Dong Xingde for half a quarter of an hour, telling him that there was a mastermind behind the Liu family who had a big feud with Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty, and pointed out that the rebels would not be recruited, so that he could be mentally prepared and not to be involved in the negotiation process. If you are fooled, you need to proceed with caution and try to delay the rebels'' move north. Dong Xingde did not expect that there would be an inside story. This actually made him regret taking on this hot potato. But now he can only bite the bullet and set off. "Leaving Beijing is not entirely a bad thing." Qin Chi said pointedly, "It is not necessarily safe for people to stay in the capital." After saying this, he walked out of the quiet room. Dong Xingde was shocked, but he didn''t ask any more questions. When Qin Chi went out, he saw an apologetic Yan Xianqing. Several other officials who came to meet Dong Xingde originally wanted to have a long talk, but when they encountered this kind of thing, they only stayed for two quarters of an hour before bidding farewell to the host''s family. Dong Xingde will also leave later. Qin Chi was left to deal with Wu Jingyao''s affairs. "Qi''an, I didn''t expect that the Wu family would do such a thing. They had this idea before. I have given up their thoughts. They deserve good. I didn''t expect that Wu Jingyao would come out like this. You don''t want to pay attention to it." Ignore them, I will testify for you and it will not affect your reputation." Yan Xianqing looked calm on the outside, but in his heart he was about to curse the Wu family to death. As for the servants at home who eat everything in and out. Yan Xianqing has asked the housekeeper to lock him up in the woodshed and wait until the matter is over before he can resolve the matter. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! In fact, although this matter is complicated, it is not complicated at all. It''s just Qin Chi who came to Yan''s house as a guest. When a person enters Yan''s house, the accompanying guards will naturally stay in the outer courtyard and cannot go to the main courtyard of the main house. Only Qin Ba and Lao Huo follow Qin Chi. The servant who led the way took Qin Chi to Yan Xianqing''s teahouse. This type of tearoom is usually used in literati''s homes to entertain friends, and the interior decoration will be comfortable and elegant. Qin Chi was led over, and when he entered, he saw Wu Jingyao, the eldest daughter of the Wu family, changing clothes. As for why Wu Jingyao changed clothes here, she explained that she wanted to make tea with her cousin. Uncle Yan happened to have good tea in the tea room, so she wanted to secretly make a pot of tea and go back. I accidentally spilled tea on my clothes. Seeing that there was no one in the tea room, I thought it wouldn''t take long to change clothes, so I changed in the tea room. In fact, it''s not as clear-cut as the rumors outside. When Qin Chi came in, Wu Jingyao was on the other side of the small screen. She only took off her outer armor. Qin Chi came too fast and she didn''t have time to take off the rest. As soon as he saw a woman, Qin Chi immediately left the tea room. Why such a coincidence? Anyone with a discerning eye can see if there is any calculation involved. When Qin Chi asked to find out the truth, Wu Jingyao kept crying, ran away, and went to the garden to jump in the lotus pond. The matter became a big deal. In fact, the water in Yan''s lotus pond is not deep. It is only half a person tall and cannot drown an adult person. In addition, after Wu Jingyao was rescued, she kept crying without explaining, and even shouted that her innocence was gone, so she might as well die and wait. People who didn''t know anything thought Qin Chi had done something to her. Everyone said that they did not expect Mr. Qin to be such a person with corrupt personal ethics. Qin Chi asked General Qin Ba''s subordinates to find him. After an interrogation, it was learned that the servant deliberately took Qin Chi to the tea room. This is not the place where Yan Xianqing really knows how to entertain guests. I was originally going to stay here, but then I found out that the weather was hot, so I moved to a pavilion in the garden. The most important thing is that when the servant saw Qin Chi go in, he came out again after a while. It is impossible to do anything to Wu Jingyao. Men can''t do that kind of thing that fast. Now it''s better, Qin Chi''s suspicion has been cleared, but there is new trouble. Wu Jingyao is seeking death again. When the maid was not paying attention, she broke the tea bowl and cut her wrist. It is said that blood flowed all over the floor. Oh, I was rescued again. Chapter 408 Wu family comes to force marriage Chapter 408 The Wu family comes to force marriage Song Jin suspected that Qin Chi planned the farce in the Yan Mansion. I just dont understand why Qin Chi chose Wu Jingyao. And what about the facts? What happened in the Yan Mansion was really not Qin Chi''s fault. Qin Chi was originally thinking about how to make outsiders believe that his relationship with Song Jin and his wife had broken down. The Wu family incident happened to happen. After talking to Song Jin last night, Song Jin''s attitude finally affected Qin Chi. He was slightly distracted. I was wary when I came to Yan''s house. But no problem was found at once. You must know that the servants leading the way are from the Yan family, and the road leading up is indeed the teahouse where Yan Xianqing usually entertains guests. Qin Chi had been here before, so he was negligent and allowed Wu Jingyao''s plan to succeed. Qin Chi''s attitude was extremely clear. However, scholars pay attention to convincing people with reason, which actually gave the Wu family hope of success. If you want to know this kind of thing, the way for normal people to solve it is to discuss marriage. Anyway, Qin Chi got a noble daughter from the Marquis Mansion, and she is also a great beauty, so he will not suffer any loss no matter what. Qin Chi jumped into the pool and committed suicide at Wu Jingyao. He didn''t express his position immediately, but he didn''t make it clear as before. It occurred to him that this was a reason. It was just as Xing Lun instigated, and everything went smoothly. Although he still didn''t relent, his attitude softened a lot. Yan Xianqing was also confused by Qin Chi''s changes. He immediately thought of Wu Jingyao seeking death and survival, and guessed that Qin Chi might have felt compassion. After all, she was a living beauty. It was a pity that she died like this. As a man, you can''t help but cherish the beauty. Thinking of this, Yan Xianqing thought he had found the reason. He raised his hand and patted Qin Chi on the shoulder, "This matter is caused by my lax discipline, which has affected you. Fortunately, you saved some face for me, otherwise, I would not be able to go out tomorrow. This matter should be taken seriously. I owe you a favor." After saying that, Yan Xianqing took a step back, bent down and gave Qin Chi a deep bow. Qin Chi could no longer remain silent at this moment and quickly returned a half salute, "Brother Xianqing, you are too polite. This matter is an unreasonable disaster for your house." "Why." Yan Xianqing sighed, feeling helpless. The two have yet to have a long conversation. Mrs. Wu was surrounded by people. At first glance, she seemed to be looking for trouble. The people who came this time were all Wu family members, not only Mrs. Wu, but also some female relatives. "Mother, mother, don''t be impulsive!" The man who hurried over was the eldest son of the Wu family. As for the old marquis of the Wu family, he didn''t come and was being raised in a village in the suburbs. Uncle Wu came over to stop Mrs. Wu. Mrs. Wu hit the ground hard with her cane, making a loud bang, "Is impulsive? What else is there to be impulsive about? The granddaughter I worked so hard to raise is about to die!" "This is the Yan family, the Yan family! Not the Hou family. Mother has to give face to the Yan family! We can''t make trouble that makes the brother-in-law unable to step down." Uncle Wu looked like he was thinking about Yan Xianqing. This disgusted Yan Xianqing. Damn it, my vision was not very good when I was young. I actually think that this uncle is not very smart, but at least he is an upright and polite person. Are you playing tricks in front of him and treating him as a fool? If Qin Qi''an wasn''t here, Yan Xianqing would have to maintain his image, otherwise he would have jumped up and pointed at the Wu family and scolded him. Is it easy for him to make friends with Qin Qi''an? It''s not easy! Qin Qian is very defensive. Few people in the DPRK were really on good terms with him. He, Yan Xian, was one of the few who had been cleared, but the Wu family had done this to him and put him on the fire. Yan Xianqing said neither yin nor yang: "Oh, it''s rare. It''s rare that uncle Wu still remembers that this is the Yan family, not Wu Bohou''s mansion. I, Yan Xianqing, should I be grateful and go to the temple to burn high incense to bring bad luck. " As soon as he said this. Uncle Wu said with a sneer on his face, "Brother-in-law, it''s my Wu family that I can''t bear, but no one wants to have such an accident." "My dear girl, I was a guest at the Yan Mansion. If something like this happened, Qin Qi''an and the Yan Mansion must give an explanation. It''s only been a long time, and people have died twice. Now they are still unconscious. Ouch, My poor daughter..." Mrs. Wu raised her handkerchief and cried continuously. Uncle Wu looked at Qin Chi and Yan Xianqing apologetically, and said, "This matter, this matter, should be resolved as soon as possible." "Shut up, everyone!" Mrs. Wu shouted sharply to stop. The Wu family cooperated with each other and could not find any problems. People seemed to be reasonable, and it was Qin Chi who was wrong. Originally, the servant pointed out that someone had bribed her and deliberately brought Qin Qi''an to the teahouse. Later, Wu Jingyao''s maid stood up and confessed, saying that she disliked Wu Jingyao and wanted to take revenge on her, so she bribed the man to destroy her and then killed her. . Now it''s better, Wu Jingyao is also innocent. Qin Chi will find someone to prove his innocence, and the Wu family also has methods. Next, Wu Jingyao sought death twice. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The wind was blowing in favor of the Wu family, and Qin Chi''s irresponsibility became his fault. Mrs. Wu walked up to Qin Chi. Just when Qin Chi thought she was going to stand on moral grounds and force Qin Chi to marry Wu Jingyao, Mrs. Wu suddenly burst into tears. She took out her handkerchief to wipe her tears and knelt down in front of Qin Chi. At this moment, not only Qin Chi was shocked. Others who saw it were also shocked! Then, the rest of the Wu family knelt down. Who is Mrs. Wu? An elderly woman who is also an important lady in the circle of noble ladies in the capital. Her rank is the second rank, the same rank as Qin Chi. The key point is that she is an elder, an old woman and child! Qin Chi couldn''t bear this kneeling. If word spreads, scholars all over the world will condemn Qin Chi. By then, no matter how reasonable Qin Chi is, he will become unreasonable. When Mrs. Wu knelt down, Qin Chi turned aside and said, "Old Mrs., this is impossible!" Qin Chi quickly went to help people. "Master Qin, please have mercy on me. I really don''t want a white-haired person to send a black-haired person." Mrs. Wu took advantage of the situation. She knelt down and begged because she wanted to give Wu Jingyao some extra points to marry into the Qin family. If she couldn''t insist, she would blame Qin Chi. Mrs. Wu didn''t even think about it at this time. The Wu family had already offended Qin Chi today, and she thought it was not a big problem. Mrs. Wu wiped her tears while pleading sadly: "My eldest granddaughter is stubborn and can''t be persuaded no matter how hard I try. My family can save her once or twice, but they can''t save her for the rest of her life. We can only be shameless." I come to beg you to fulfill that childs infatuation..." "Old Madam, go back home first, let Qin think about it for a few days." Qin Chi closed his eyes to cover up his coldness, and took a step back helplessly. "no" Mrs. Wu stood up and retorted. If you think about it for a few days, the day lily will be cold. Mrs. Wu seemed to know what her eldest daughter-in-law wanted to do, she glared secretly, and she suddenly became honest again. The last day, please vote. Ps: The outline of this book is in the later stages of writing, so its normal to have some ups and downs. Dear friends, stay calm and dont curse. Chapter 409 withheld letter Chapter 409 The intercepted letter After leaving Yan Mansion, Qin Chi went directly to the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry to handle official business. After finishing a lot of things, he finally noticed that his colleagues were looking at him with evasive eyes. Soon he found out why. Rumors are spreading outside, and from noon to now, I dont know how many versions have been circulated. The latest version is that someone praised Qin Chi for his noble character and could not bear Miss Wu''s premature death, so he agreed to marry Miss Wu as his wife. Yes, as a wife. This attracted a lot of sympathy to Song Jin. Sympathy is sympathy, and everyone''s ability to accept it is exceptionally good. In the final analysis, it is Song Jin''s background. Many people think that she is not worthy of Qin Chi. People are like this sometimes. When the Bai Yueguang you admire is with an equally good person, you will feel that it is natural in your heart. You may have envy and regret but you can accept the good. On the contrary, if the person you are with Bai Yueguang is someone inferior to you, or even the type of person you look down upon, your mentality will easily collapse if you are not careful. The rumors stepped on Song Jin and indirectly promoted Wu Jingyao. A peasant woman from the countryside and a noble lady from the capital. This is a world of difference. In short, Wu Jingyao wanted to step on Song Jin to take the position, and some forces were behind it to add fuel to the flames. She just didn''t like Qin Chi''s good intentions. Even if Yan Xianqing spoke for Qin Chi outside, it had little effect. At the same time, some scholars questioned Qin Chi''s lack of responsibility, which caused the innocence of an innocent woman and caused her to seek death twice. The rumors became more and more fierce, and there was a whole evil trend, and all kinds of monsters and ghosts jumped out. "Sir, it was the Wu family who did it." Lao Huo asked people to find out, and the Wu family servants were the first to spread the rumors, "They are so bold that they dare to scheme against the young master and want to step on the madam to get the upper hand." "They will pay the price for what they did today." Qin Chi''s face was condensed. Lao Huo asked: "Master, do you want to respond?" "Treat it as if you don''t know anything and go back home first." Qin Chi went to the Yamen in advance for the first time. Since this is the case, the group of people will return home first. It was dusk outside. Only half of the setting sun is left in the west, birds are returning to their nests, and pedestrians are returning home under the sunset glow. Compared with his calm face, Qin Chi''s mood was not very calm. He didn''t care what outsiders thought of him. The only thing he cared about was what Song Jin thought. Qin Chi didn''t think it was wrong to send his wife and children away in advance. It''s just that he didn''t figure out why Song Jin refused? She always acted rationally, but she was stubborn on this matter. "Where''s Madam?" Qin Chi asked as he stepped into the gate. Old man Hong and old man Li were sitting together chatting. When they saw Qin Chi returning home, they stood up to greet them. Before they could speak, their young master asked about his wife? Emotions so obvious? Is he still their young master who never changed his face despite the collapse of Mount Tai? Old Li pointed in the direction of the small garden, "Madam is in the garden." Qin Chi strode towards the small garden. He was restrained but still showed a little eagerness. Old Man Hong and Old Man Li looked at each other. Old Li Tou said dryly: "Master, are you anxious? Are you afraid that Madam will misunderstand you?" "What happened today should be taken as a warning." After speaking, Old Man Hong thought of something again and sighed in his heart, "It is not a good thing for the young master to care too much about his wife." Old Li Tou gave him a look of disdain, "Isn''t it a good thing that the wife and the young master have a good relationship? At least the back house is clean and there aren''t so many dirty things." "You know a hammer, people who achieve great things are most afraid of emotions. Think about how many heroes and heroes have been defeated by beauties in history." Old Man Hong said with a hint. When Old Man Li wanted to ask again, he kept silent. talk. Song Kuan''s crisis has not been resolved yet. Lao Li was recovering from his injuries and didn''t know anything about it. Later, Qin Chi issued a gag order, and no one spoke to him. Besides, Qin Chi came to the small garden. I saw Song Jin sitting gently in the pavilion, watching Niu Niu chatting with her youngest son with a smile. In fact, it was Niuniu who was talking enthusiastically, occasionally making baby sounds and giggling from time to time. How children communicate is something adults will never understand. The scene was so heartwarming that people''s mood improved unconsciously. Qin Chi stood not far away, watching this scene quietly. Mu Ting leaned close to Song Jin''s ear and said something. Song Jin raised his head and looked at Qin Chi. After only a short while, Song Jin looked away again, as if she hadn''t seen him. Qin Chi''s heart tightened. Sure enough, the lady is angry? Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Qin Chi originally wanted to go there, but he couldn''t move forward. After struggling in his heart, he finally convinced himself to go over... "Sir, Uncle Hong has a letter for his subordinates to deliver to you." Qin Yi came over at this moment and handed the letter to Qin Chi with both hands. The letter was sent to the Qin Mansion today and was directed to Song Jin. Seeing that the messenger was suspicious, Old Man Hong seized the letter and the messenger. Qin Chi turned around and went to the study. Open the letter. As expected, it was never signed. The content of the letter was to make an appointment with Song Jin, using Song Kuan as bait. The letter described Song Kuan''s features in detail and added a small portrait. If Song Jin receives this letter, Qin Chi knows that even if she is suspicious, she will probably go to the appointment. Qin Chi read the letter again, lit it and threw it into the brazier, and asked: "Qin Yi, is Xing Lun leaving Beijing?" A voice from above the roof beam responded: "Reporting to the young master, it is indeed true. I heard from the secret guard left behind in the mansion that Xing Lun came to say goodbye to his wife today, and the fleet will leave Beijing early tomorrow morning." "I collected a few boxes of books and wanted to ask him to help me bring them back to Huizhou and deliver them to Director Lu Shan of Tachuan Academy. Send someone to deliver a message..." Qin Chi''s seemingly ordinary order is not so ordinary. . He got up and left the study. Song Jin came back with his two children. The family had a peaceful dinner. As night falls. The back door of Qin Mansion opened. Several large wooden boxes were carried from inside and sent to Xing Lun who was waiting at the drug store. The caravan members led by Xing Lun set off and left the city just before the city gate closed. The caravan went to Zhangjiawan. This is knowing that there are tigers in the mountains and traveling to the tiger mountains. Perhaps Xing Lun and others were too calm. There were people watching along the way, but no one came out to intercept them until they came to the dock and loaded the things on the ship. The next day, the sky was gray and bright. More than twenty large ships set sail. Not far away, a group of big men stared at the fleet on the dock. They are all dressed up as Daxia soldiers, like the officers and soldiers stationed in Zhangjiawan. One of them said fiercely: "Boss, why don''t you intercept it? What a pity it is to let the fleet leave like this. This is a fat sheep." "Please restrain yourself, we are soldiers now." The leading man glared at the man fiercely, "This is the critical moment. If you ruin the master''s important matter, you don''t have enough heads to cut off." "Okay, it''s really a pity." I thought I could take the opportunity to gain weight. In the past, they were used to being water bandits. When they saw fat sheep, they were ready to take action. They forgot that their superiors had told them not to act rashly. Chapter 410 Leaving Beijing Chapter 410 Leaving Beijing The Jifang fleet sailed on the river. Xing Lun ordered not to stop the ship and to drive with all his strength to leave the capital as quickly as possible. The boat sailed for a day, and the sunset was like blood. The afterglow fell on the flowing river, and the golden-red light intertwined with the river water. Xing Lun stood on the bow of the boat and looked at both sides of the bank. There are weeping willows on both sides of the river bank, and occasionally you can see buildings hidden among the greenery. The crew may have guessed that Xing Lun was watching from the bow of the ship, but only Xing Lun knew that he was checking where the boat had arrived. "Manager Xing, it''s getting dark soon. Are you looking for a place to dock or anchor?" The old captain walked out with bare arms and asked Xing Lun respectfully. Xing Lun replied: "Arrange people to cook, and we have to sail overnight tonight." "But can''t everyone bear this?" "It''s okay, I won''t die if I stay up all night. When this trip is over, the reward will be doubled compared to last year." Xing Lun gave him a handful of sweet dates. It turned out that the old captain was very helpful and happily went to inform the other crew members of the good news. Last year''s reward doubled? This is a great thing. You must know that after the wages were paid last year, the boss added a reward of silver, and the captain had a full fifty taels! Wait for Xing Lun to return to the cabin. The speed of the fleet was a little faster. Avoiding the sight of others, Xing Lun went back to where he lived, took out a baggage, and then went to a room for people to rest, where several large boxes of books sent by Qin Chi were placed. At this time, Wei Yuan was guarding the door of the room. When he saw Xing Lun coming over, he immediately saluted. Xing Lun asked him to continue to stay outside. A man went in. In addition to the stacked boxes, there were three more people inside. To be precise, it was an adult, a little girl of a few years old, and a baby who was babbling and learning to speak. After Song Jin had dinner last night. He followed Qin Chi back to the dormitory. Not long after, the person fell asleep. When she woke up again, she was already on the ship. According to Wei Yuan, she and the child were put in wooden boxes and transported out, and then sent to the ship. None of the people who had been serving Song Jin before left with her. The luggage she had packed earlier was on the boat. The only extra thing is a copy of Heli Shu. The letter of separation was signed by Qin Chi and stamped with his private seal. He was the one at fault, saying that he had no face to face his wife and agreed to give birth to the child to her. Song Jin didn''t know what Qin Chi was going to do. Suddenly he made arbitrary decisions and arranged for someone to send her and the child away? She was not even given a chance to explain in detail, so she could only get a copy of the Li Shu. The only difference between the Li Shu and the Li Shu was Song Jin''s signature. Wake up to see He Lishu. Song Jin couldn''t describe what he felt in his heart. In short, he felt very uncomfortable. "My boss, I brought a package." When Xing Lun received the news from Qin Chi, he agreed without hesitation, "The fleet has left the capital." "It''s very suspicious to rush like this." Song Jin took the baggage and reminded him. Xing Lun said helplessly: "I just did what Mr. Qin said. He asked me to take you out of Beijing as soon as possible, and don''t let anyone know your identity along the way. And a woman with two children is easy to be suspected, so I did After making some arrangements, you will know after unpacking. Song Jin unpacked the bag. Inside were clothes worn by ordinary people, a set of men''s shorts and trousers, and two sets of clothes for little boys and Milkman. If people want to conceal their whereabouts, they must first blend in with the general public and try to be as inconspicuous as possible. Xing Lun went outside. He whispered a few words to Wei Yuan. Wei Yuan nodded and left. Song Jin dressed up Niu Niu as a little boy and made her little eyebrows thicker. She looked lively and active, and a bit clever. Then Song Jin also changed. Fortunately, Qin Chi didn''t leave behind the luggage she packed. Otherwise, Song Jin wouldn''t have anything she wanted to disguise herself with. Niu Niu watched Song Jin smearing it on her face with bright eyes. After a while, her mother changed her appearance. The skin was smoothed to a dark yellowish-black color, making it look slightly rough, the eyebrows were thicker, and the color of the lips was lighter. At a glance, people who were not familiar with him would just think that he was a young man who lived a relatively rough life. This made Niu Niu feel very novel. "Mom, can Niuniu learn?" The little girl''s eyes were full of expectation. Song Jin smiled and said, "Yes, but we have to wait until we return to our hometown." "Okay." The little girl is happy. Song Jin also gave instructions on how to address Niuniu, asking her to call her brother in front of others. As for Naituanzi, who was sleeping soundly, Song Jin picked him up and also changed his little son into ordinary cotton clothes. "Aaron, it''s ready." As soon as he finished speaking, the heavy door curtain opened. Xing Lun walked in. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! He looked at the mother and daughter who had changed their appearance, then looked at her holding the baby in her arms, and said with a smile: "There is a sailor whose family is from the capital. This time his wife just gave birth to a child, and unfortunately she died in infancy. This time Brought on board." Of course I brought him on board intentionally to take care of the young master. Wei Yuan brought a middle-aged couple over. A dark-skinned man and a clean and simple woman. The man called out to Manager Xing in a naive manner. The woman was a little nervous when she came over and didn''t dare to lift her head when she saw Xing Lun and others. Song Jin handed the child to the woman. The woman carefully took the milk dumpling away. Xing Lun arranged this in order to cope with the officers and soldiers on the road stopping the boat for inspection. When outsiders asked, he said that Naituanzi was their child. The children''s clothes and other daily necessities were placed in the small room where the woman lived. Wait until the next boat stop. To be on the safe side, the woman and her man would switch boats. Such an arrangement is indeed inconspicuous. If some people in the capital learn that Qin Chi''s wife and children have left the capital, they will first investigate and look for a woman to take care of the two children. Song Jin and Niu Niu are brothers to the outside world, helping in the kitchen on the ship. When Song Jin started doing things, he really did them and he was very deft. Xing Lun didn''t say anything to the crew. Song Jin and Niu Niu appeared in front of people after changing their clothes. He only said that they were a pair of newly acquired brothers. There was no one at home, so they stayed in the kitchen to do odd jobs. Now only Xing Lun and Wei Yuan are aware of Song Jin''s true identity on the ship. Three days later, in the morning. Passing by a town, more than twenty merchant ships stopped to supply supplies. The ships did not dock directly, but anchored more than ten feet away from the shore. Xing Lun went ashore in a small boat and returned after about half an hour. After returning, he told Song Jin about the news in the capital. "On the second day of our departure..." It was reported outside that Qin Qi''an and his wife had a big fight that night. The dignified minister was kicked out of the dormitory by his wife and had to sleep in the study. The couple is suspected of having a broken relationship. According to a servant of the Qin family who went out to buy something, they accidentally let it slip that the mistress could still be heard crying in the middle of the night. Within two days, they were divorced! There was a big move in the Qin Mansion, and servants were moving in and out. It was said that "Song Jin" wanted to take the child back to Huizhou. Many good people in the capital went to the gate of the Qin Mansion to watch, hoping to see the protagonist''s style. Unfortunately, "Song Jin" wore a power fence when she went out. She seemed to be holding a baby in her arms, and a little girl of several years old. Qin Qi carried him into the car. Mu Ting followed and was busy. No one could tell that this was just a show. PS: Happy New Year, my dear friends! ~ Chapter 411 Weakness Chapter 411 Weakness "Everything is said about Mr. Qin outside. Some people praise him, some sympathize with him, and some people sneer at him." Xing Lun said calmly. Song Jin''s face showed no emotion after hearing this. Xing Lun went on to say: "Mr. Wen Ge scolded him in public at the court meeting for not being a scholar, abandoning his wife and children, and not cultivating his moral character. Lord Qin is usually very popular, but Master Yan refuted it on the spot, but Lord Qin did not Justify yourself. Seeing Song Jin, he still didn''t speak. Xing Lun changed his tone and said, "At first glance, this matter is about virtue and lack of cultivation, but at first glance, it is just a romantic affair between men. It will not affect Mr. Qin''s official career. After all, Mr. Qin has already reached the rank of Shangshu, and there is no way he can be promoted. In the future, Probably into the cabinet. Xing Lun always paid attention to Song Jin''s expression, and when he saw that she was indifferent, he secretly said: "My boss, don''t worry too much about Mr. Qin. There are many people outside who envy him for his good fortune, and he got a young lady from the Hou Mansion for nothing." Song Jin finally raised his eyelids and glanced at Xing Lun, who was talking enthusiastically, "You talk a lot today." "Ahem..." Xing Lun looked away in embarrassment and abruptly changed the subject, "I wonder what those people in the capital think. They don''t care about the war in the northwest and the Jianning rebellion. They insist on focusing on other people''s gossip." "Everyone has nothing to do when they are full!" Song Jin almost said that Xing Lun was one of them. Xing Lun pursed his lips, "I''m worried that my boss won''t be able to think about it." "There''s nothing to worry about." Song Jin would be deceiving himself if he said he was not sad, but it was impossible for him to seek life and death for this. "If we get along, we''ll stay together. If we don''t get along, we''ll break up. What a big deal." Xing Lun narrowed his eyes and lowered his head. Don''t mention the capital matter anymore. However, the hearsay rumors outside, arranged with the interest of busybodies, are not real development after all. The calm surface of the capital was actually turbulent. While people were talking about Qin Chi''s love affair outside, a brutal fight broke out in a nunnery ten miles away from the capital. That night, the nunnery was filled with blood. Before dawn, the nunnery was filled with blood. A fire burned the nunnery completely, including the masters and nuns in the nunnery, as well as thousands of rebels hiding in the nunnery. Not only that, the same night. The Governor of Water Transport died in his own house. His death was not very honorable. He died of sudden madness. This was almost a signal for Qin Chi to go to war with them. For the first time, He Liankai did not get angry, "Kill Song Kuan and send his head to the Qin Mansion." "My lord, I have forgotten that Song Kuan was locked up in the basement of the nunnery. He couldn''t open the mechanism without a special key. Qin Qi''an burned down the nunnery with a fire. He was afraid that he was in danger." Yan Jiangnan ran his fingers across the soft feathers on the feather fan. Feather thought that maybe he was really old and thought of young people too simply. He stood up and apologized to He Liankai. This time he made a mistake again. Yan Jiangnan added: "Qin Qi''an is a ruthless man. He killed his father-in-law first, and then abandoned his wife and children. This way he has no soft threats. This man can be called a tyrant." "No, Qin Qi''an is a soft threat!" There was disapproval in He Liankai''s voice, "Mr. Yan, you haven''t recognized the reality after so long? You can''t outwit Qin Qi''an." These words were like a fist, hitting Yan Jiangnan''s chest hard, silencing him speechless. He Liankai asked again: "Do you know where you lost?" "I would like to hear the details." Yan Jiangnan straightened his back slowly. He Liankai looked directly at Yan Jiangnan and said every word like a knife: "Sir, you are thinking about the people in the world, and you are not as ruthless as Qin Qi Anxin." He stood up suddenly, walked out of the terrace, and looked at the imperial city in the distance. Yan Jiangnan came and stood behind him. He Liankai looked at the imperial city and said: "I just got some news. Do you know who Qin Qi''an is? He is my good emperor brother in the northwest. The child of the missing eldest daughter is a man in Huizhou. Farmer, I have been carefully taught that my good emperor brother is really well hidden. Not only did he hide his informant from us, but he also didnt know about it from the person in the palace. " "Qin Qian has known how to disguise since he was a child. He has lived in poverty for more than ten years without anyone around him seeing through it." He Liankai knew that these things may seem ordinary, but it may not be possible for another person, especially if the other party has the conditions. Live a life of fine clothes, fine food, and surrounded by servants. Just thinking about this kind of person is scary. Yan Jiangnan learned that Qin Chi was the grandson of Prince Rui, and things that had been unreasonable in the past suddenly became clear. He Liankai added: "Qin Qi''an knew about raising private soldiers a few years ago. The account books lost in Fuzhou were in his hands, but he was so ruthless that he did nothing." When I first heard it, I was confused. In fact, when a normal person encounters a major conspiracy, he should do everything possible to expose the Liu family, but Qin Chi did not. Even today, when he entered the court and held a high official position, he has not produced that evidence. He Liankai would also like to thank Qin Chi for this matter. But he was not very friendly to Emperor Mingcheng. And harming the interests of Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty is equivalent to digging up the foundation of Prince Rui, even though Qin Chi is Prince Rui''s only grandson. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Yan Jiangnan always talked about things like "prosperity, the people will suffer; death, the people will suffer", "making a living for the people", etc. He always wanted to conquer the world at the lowest cost without starting a war. In He Liankai''s opinion, it was just that he was reading a lot and making his brain go crazy. However, as a superior person, he just wouldn''t expose it. He Liankai didn''t know. In the previous life, I really did have a banquet in Jiangnan. It''s just that in this life, something like Qin Chi happened. Compared with Yan Jiangnan, he was famous for his strategies and advocated the teachings of Confucius and Mencius. He Liankai may have agreed in the past, but now it''s just the opposite. He prefers to fight violence with violence, trampling on corpses without blinking an eye. In recent years, there have been restrictions on banquets in Jiangnan, so I have restrained myself. Now it seems that He Liankai doesn''t want to endure it anymore, "Sir, I have made many plans, but in the end I have reached the stage of raising troops. From now on, everything will follow my orders." "What do you want to do, my lord?" "First of all, send people to intercept and kill Qin Qi''an''s wife and children." He Liankai''s eyes were filled with murderous intent. "Whether he is really reconciled or wants to use this to send his wife and children away from the capital, just kill him." "This matter has nothing to do with the overall situation. Lord, please think twice." Yan Jiangnan rolled up his sleeves and saluted, bowing his head to the end. He Liankai stretched out his hand to help him, but did not change his mind: "Sir, there is no need to persuade. I know that this matter has nothing to do with the overall situation, but if I don''t kill Qin Qi''an, I can''t swallow this sigh of relief." He immediately summoned a confidant and ordered him to take a hundred people to carry out the task. Seeing this, Yan Jiangnan did not persuade him again. He Liankai put his hands behind his hands and looked at the imperial city. No one knows better than him the pain of losing a loved one and a child. Once upon a time, he entered the East Palace and married his beloved woman as his concubine. His eldest son was smart and his younger son was still in his infancy. In just one night, everything was lost... Thirty years later, every time I think of them, I still think of them. Heartbreaking. "Feast in Jiangnan!" He Liankai said with hatred in his eyes: "In three days, we will take action." Yan Jiangnan said respectfully: "Yes!" Chapter 412 Cremation of Thousands of Rebels Chapter 412: Cremation of Thousands of Rebels Song Jin, far away from the capital. When the fleet came ashore for the second time to make up for it, news from the capital was once again received. It is said that Qin Chi''s ex-wife was robbed and disappeared by bandits on her way back to Huizhou with her children, and her two children were killed. Qin Chi locked himself in his home for three days. No one was seen. Wu Bohou''s Mansion sent people to the door, but they couldn''t even get through the gate. Wu Jingyao gambled her life on a calculated marriage. After learning that Song Jin was missing, the happiest person in the capital was her. After all, no matter whether Song Jin dies or disappears, even if he comes back in the future, his innocence will be questioned. From now on, Song Jin will not be an obstacle to her. However, something like this happened in the Qin Mansion. Qin Chi was at a vulnerable time. As a future in-law, the Wu Bohou Mansion should perform well. Wu Jingyao wanted to take advantage of the situation and ride a carriage to the Qin Mansion, but was stopped outside the door. But don''t wait for others to gossip. That night, late at night. The North City Gate suddenly opened, and a group of tens of thousands of rebels, armed with sophisticated weapons, riding tall war horses and wearing armor, rushed into the capital and headed straight for the palace. Anyone who stands in his way will fight for a while. This cavalry is extremely brave. When you kill, you will find that each of them can fight one against ten. They have a fierceness that is not found in the soldiers in the capital, and they kill without the slightest hesitation. This is obviously no ordinary teacher. If Song Jin were here, he would see the signs. These people are full of bandit spirit. It is obvious that they are accustomed to being bandits and kill people like crazy. The students are the kind who are well-trained. As the rebels stormed the palace. A rebel army of a thousand people went straight to Qin Mansion. The big man in the lead looked like a gangster. There was a stab wound on his face, covering half of his head. Only one eye was exposed. He looked at the gate of the Qin Mansion, full of hatred. "Damn Qin Qian, I will skin you today." The big man waved his mace and smashed the door. The subordinate on the side reminded, "Boss, the master said that he would be captured alive." "Get out! If I don''t kill him, I will make his life worse than death. Not only did I lose a group of brothers, but I also had to be slandered by this stupid scholar. I have never suffered such an aggrieved bird in my entire life." The rebels who rushed up from behind listened. Everyone started to boo and sympathize with the big man. This person was the confidant who was arranged by He Liankai to intercept and kill Qin Chi''s wife and children not long ago. Who knew that when he went there, he would be ambushed again. All the brothers he brought with him are dead! He was the only one who narrowly escaped. Before the matter was over, the man surnamed Qin was still throwing dirty water on them. His wife was missing and both children were dead. It was none of their business. Not to mention he killed someone, he didn''t even see him. It made him so angry. But he didn''t know, and he was even more angry later. When they broke open the door of Qin Mansion. After thousands of people rushed into the Qin Mansion, they found that it was quiet inside without any movement. The people walking in front thought it was an ambush and waited for a long time. Let the soldiers holding shields come forward first. Started to search the Qin Mansion. Just like the feeling at the beginning, there is no one here, and it is another lie to say that there are no visitors behind closed doors. "That''s not right. The spies said last night that they saw people from the Qin Mansion going out to buy things normally. The Wu family came knocking on the door, and some people opened the door." It makes no sense that no one would be there waiting for them to come. A thousand rebels broke into the Qin mansion. A group of people traveling through the night quietly assassinated more than a dozen rebels guarding the gate. Someone else went to close the gate of Qin Mansion. After a while, flames quickly burst out around the Qin Mansion. The direction and speed of the fire were abnormal at first glance. The flames burned too fast, and the rebels who were about to break into the Qin Mansion were surrounded by a circle of fire. . Anyone who wants to break out of the circle of fire. He will be shot by cold arrows from outside. "There''s an ambush! Damn it, Qin deserves to die!" "We''ve fallen into a trap, run away! Rush to the door... No, the door is locked!" "Ah, save me, I''m on fire! Put out my fire quickly." At first there were various curses, and later there were calls for help and screams. However, as the fire became more intense, these sounds gradually stopped. Until no more rebels come out. Similarly, the Qin Mansion was already in flames. Many people in the capital knew that something had happened to the Qin Mansion. After they knew that the rebels had rushed into the capital, some people looked at the sky above the Qin Mansion in shock and confusion. In the eyes of these people, the Qin Mansion was in trouble. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The Qin Mansion is afraid that a river of blood will flow and many people will die. As they guessed, many people in the Qin Mansion did die, but it was not Qin Chi and the others. On the contrary, it was the rebels who broke into the Qin Mansion and were eliminated by the trap set by Qin Chi. Its just that Mr. Qin is quite generous. A mansion was buried with him. As for the uninformed people in the city, especially some common people, they saw thick smoke billowing up along with sparks, and some people originally wanted to check what happened. Only then did he realize that the rebels had suddenly reached the capital. Some shrewd people hurried to hide, or found a cellar or something to hide. People not far from the palace heard fierce fighting and shouts of killing. Focus on being different from others. Not far from the entrance of the palace, on the platform of a tall building, Qin Chi sat cross-legged, looking at the rebels riding horses not far away and rushing towards the palace. Qin Chi witnessed this rebellion. "Sir, the matter in the mansion has been resolved." Qin Yichu reported. "Yeah, got it." Qin Chi was still looking in the direction of the rebels ahead, "He Liankai and Yan Jiangnan haven''t entered the palace yet?" "Sir, no." "They are cautious." Qin Chi spent so much thought before forcing the other party to jump over the wall. These 10,000 cavalry are more like forwards. It was a test for the imperial city guards. It took such a long time to find out exactly how many troops there were in the capital. Not only Qin Chi had figured it out, but He Liankai probably also knew it. The army of the Great Xia Dynasty was divided into garrison units. There were seventy-two garrison units, each with more than 5,000 men. After Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty ascended the throne, the Beijing Camp expanded into the Fifth Military Camp, the Three Thousand Camp and the Shenji Camp, with the total strength reaching a maximum of 400,000. Later, Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty and Prince Rui had a quarrel. Of course, this was unknown to outsiders. Those who are interested will find that during the thirty years, the capital''s military strength has deteriorated year by year due to various reasons. There are various hidden dangers inside. Not only are food and salary arrears in arrears, but there are also people who are eating up empty wages. Low morale, insufficient training, greatly reduced combat effectiveness, etc. Today, the military strength is less than half of what it was at its peak. Its not that no military general mentioned it. It was Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty who didn''t care and didn''t put things in order. Not long ago, there was a great war in the northwest, and Daxia was victorious. One hundred thousand soldiers had just been transferred. The current period can be said to be the period when Emperor Mingcheng''s military strength is the weakest since he ascended the throne. The Jianning rebellion made Emperor Mingcheng feel a sense of crisis, and he ordered to transfer nearby troops back to the capital, but this also took some time. Currently, the military camp with the highest combat power belongs to the Shenji Camp run by Jinyiwei and Ning Guogong. Chapter 413 War breaks out Chapter 413 The war breaks out Qin Chi stood up unconsciously. Looking at the fighting in front of the palace gate. Under the bright moonlight, swords and swords intertwined with shadows. People kept falling and others joined the battle. Not only was there fighting in this part of the city, but the fighting at the north gate was equally fierce. Ning Guogong appeared with the Shenji Battalion. The North City Gate, which was briefly occupied by the rebels, was recaptured and the city gate was closed again. Wait for the soldiers from the fifth army camp and the three thousand battalion to support the palace gate. The soldiers and horses of the five cities faced off against the rebels who were causing trouble in the city. It was temporarily unable to support the palace. Not only were the 10,000 elite rebels who rushed into the city, but there were also 20,000 people who had been lurking in the city for a long time. Almost at the moment the battle started, they attacked the residence of the important minister who held real power in the court. This is a purposeful interception. Suddenly, flames of war spread everywhere, like a devil descending on the world. Tragedies often occurred, and living lives disappeared in an instant. Shopkeeper Tao received a letter from Fei Ge. After he opened it, he immediately reported: "Master Qi, the North City Gate has been closed again and is temporarily taken over by the Shenji Battalion." "Okay." Qin Chi breathed a deep sigh of relief. Behind him, someone was hurriedly stepping on the stairs. There was a thumping sound, and a figure appeared at the entrance of the stairs holding the hem of his clothes and panting rapidly. As soon as he saw Qin Chi, he hurried over. "Pray for peace!" The person who came was Li Huarong. His eyes turned around Qin Chi, and then he said thankfully: "It''s great that nothing happened to you! You don''t know that I saw the thick smoke above Qin Mansion, but you can give me I was scared. I wanted to go out and have a look, but I happened to meet the person you sent. " "Sir." Qin Chi saluted Li Huarong. Li Huarong blocked him, "No, what time is it? You don''t have to be so polite. Tell me quickly, what''s going on outside?" "I received a message during the day that rebels were attacking the city." Qin Chi estimated that if the former prince invaded the city, he would definitely not let him go. "You know that I had some disagreements with the rebel leader. I was the first to set a trap in the mansion. I never thought that the rebels would invade the city. Sure enough, I was the first to find him. I, wasnt I worried about you again? I sent someone to pick you up. You are my Dinghai Shenzhen, so you cant tolerate any mistakes. "You, you." Li Huarong pointed at him, not knowing whether to scold or praise him, "Why didn''t you tell me about such a big matter in advance? I might as well give you some advice." "We are just spectators" Of course, Qin Chi couldn''t tell the whole plan. Then his gentle image is gone? Qin Chi had imagined that the rebels would attack the city and kill important ministers, but it might not happen. In order to avoid arousing suspicion, he made no unnecessary arrangements. Only after the rebels broke into the north gate. Qin Chi sent someone to inform his old colleagues, which was a show of gratitude, and the person who asked him to personally send someone to pick him up was Li Huarong. As for the generals who originally belonged to Prince Rui''s line. Qin Chi had communicated with Ning Guogong three days ago, and Ning Guogong immediately contacted others secretly to prepare the challenge and arrange for his family in advance. As the saying goes, people who have no long-term worries must have immediate worries. If he wants to win, he must make every move. Li Huarong looked at Qin Chi solemnly, "How could the rebels open the North City Gate so suddenly?" "The guard of the North City Gate was bribed by the rebels. The city gate was opened directly without a fight. Not long after the rebels poured into the city, he was shot dead by the Shenji Battalion. Now the North City Gate Temporarily taken over by the Shenji Battalion." This news had just come back from his people, who were one step ahead of Li Huarong. "Catch a turtle in an urn?" Li Huarong stood on the balcony, staring in the direction of the palace gate. The guards guarding the palace gate still poured out of the palace in a steady stream, holding large shields and lined up in a row, guarding the palace gate tightly with three layers inside and three layers outside. No matter how brave the ten thousand rebels were, they could not break into the palace gate. Gradually falling behind. Li Huarong asked again: "Did you participate in the layout of the city?" "Sir, you think highly of me. I can''t do this kind of arrangement. Besides, I can do it, but I don''t dare to do it." Qin Chi quickly waved his hand to deny it. A group of people will definitely die in the city today. Therefore, Qin Chi did not dare to accuse him of allowing the rebels to enter the city, otherwise he would be attacked by the surviving people tomorrow morning. However, seeing this situation, others would not doubt him. Among the many ministers, the Qin Mansion was the first one to catch fire. Li Huarong thought of something and immediately shut up. Even if Qin Chi had the ability, he would not dare to do it blatantly even though Emperor Cheng was not dead yet. "I''m overthinking it. The only person who can mobilize so many troops in such a short period of time is the one in the palace." When he said this, Li Huarong couldn''t hide his anger. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty actually ignored the safety of the people in the city and directly let the rebels enter the city, just to close the door and beat the dogs! Li Huarong''s deep eyes narrowed slightly, and he said as if chatting: "Recently, Mr. Xu has been staying in the palace and is often with His Majesty." "They are all Pavilion elders. Didn''t you receive any information about the rebels entering the city in advance?" Qin Chi''s words hit Li Huarong''s lungs a bit. Li Huarong was originally in a heavy mood. Being interrupted like this by Qin Chi, he almost laughed in anger. He said angrily: "Don''t you know? Among the three pavilion elders, I am the one who makes up the numbers." Mr. Xu is the first assistant, and Mr. Wen Ge is the second assistant. Among the three, Xu Laofang was the one who won the trust of Emperor Ming Cheng. Xuge Lao was a scribe at the same time as Yan Jiangnan. He was a highly respected scholar in the Great Xia Dynasty. However, he was not in good health in recent years and was not very able to do things. However, his move was exactly what Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty wanted. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty was most afraid of the power of his ministers. Isnt Mr. Xu the most in line with his wishes? Thinking of something, Li Huarong sneered again, "The person named Wen pretends to be a real person, but the second assistant is still Yang Zhengkai''s, and he is not much better than me in the cabinet." When Li Huarong said this, he was still looking in the direction of Wen Mansion. There was fire reflected there, and it was obviously a fire. Qin Chi also noticed. There were more than a dozen fires in the city, all in the Dongcheng District of the inner city, where the important officials of the court lived. "Earlier I suspected that Wen Ge always belonged to the former prince, but now it doesn''t seem like it." Qin Chi withdrew his gaze. Li Huarong came to the table and sat down, pouring himself a cup of tea. "He is a villain who is good at maneuvering and opportunistic. Yan Jiangnan doesn''t like him." Qin Chi thought that with Mr. Yang Ge in charge, Yan Jiangnan really did not need to come into contact with Mr. Wen Ge, which would increase the risk of exposure. Thinking of this, Qin Chi thought of Mr. Yang Ge again. Yang Gelao committed suicide in prison. His death was beyond Qin Chi''s expectation. When thinking of the "suicide note" he left behind, Qin Chi somewhat understood that the old fox chose to commit suicide, not for the so-called loyalty, but to preserve the family. Chapter 414 Giving up the small to seize the big Chapter 414: Giving up the small to seize the big The battle between Emperor Cheng and He Liankai of Ming Dynasty. No matter who wins or loses, it will be a dilemma for the Yang family. Even if the Yang family is exiled now, if there are people behind it to make arrangements, they don''t have to worry about losses on the road. No matter what, the Yang family was saved. Today, if they conspire together with He Liankai, the Yang family will be implicated in the crime of the nine clans. The Yang family is a big family, and Elder Yang Ge is still from the main branch. At least tens of thousands of clan members will die. Even if He Lian Kai wins. With the pearls and jade from the south of the Yangtze River in front of him, Mr. Yang Ge still cannot be the first among the officials. Regardless of whether one minister failed to serve two masters or he became a spy, he could not avoid being despised by the world. Moreover, Emperor Mingcheng made such an appearance tonight. Most of the former prince''s partisans in the DPRK will probably be cut off. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty and Mr. Xu most likely did this not only to lure the rebels into the city to catch turtles in the urn, but also to eliminate the spies. It was a blessing that the Yang family was eliminated early. It was only today that Qin Chi figured it out. He told Li Huarong about this matter, and Li Huarong agreed, "You really can''t look down on anyone." Qin Chi raised his eyes and glanced at him. I wonder if his words mean that he has become an emperor or that he is an old man? The turmoil in the imperial city continued until dawn. Until most of the rebels were killed on the spot, a small number escaped. Officers and soldiers blocked all entrances and exits. We are going door to door, searching everywhere. Qin Chi turned around and went downstairs, step by step, walking very steadily. A group of people appeared on the street. There were few pedestrians on the main street in the early morning, and most of them were officers and soldiers searching and patrolling guards. Seeing Qin Chi appear, those people were surprised for a long time. They thought Qin Chi died in their own house. Earlier, the officers and soldiers went to Qin Mansion to inspect the ruins. The sparks in several courtyards had not been extinguished. The burnt corpses among them made the officers and soldiers feel numb. "Master Qin?" A person walked out of the Jin Yiwei. Chen Qianhu quickly approached Qin Chi. When he was about ten feet away, he was stopped by the guards. Chen Qianhu paid attention to the guards protecting Qin Chi. Each of them walked calmly and silently. They were obviously masters. He was secretly shocked. Master Qin seemed not to be simple. Qin Chi waved his hand to signal the guards to retreat, "Master Chen is not an outsider." Hearing this, the guards moved aside. Chen Qianhu then approached Qin Chi with his heart in mind, and a slight chill ran down his spine. He had no doubt that if he had bad intentions towards Qin Chi, he would die miserably. "Master Qin, are you okay?" Chen Qianhu stepped forward and bowed politely, his attitude more than twice as good as before. As for people, most people are quite sensible, especially when there is a knife hanging above their heads. Qin Chi raised his hand and returned the salute, "Master Chen, I''m worried about you. Everything is fine. But, what''s the situation outside?" "It''s a mess." Chen Qianhu looked around, leaned towards Qin Chi, and whispered: "Some rebels are still hiding in the city, please be careful when traveling." "Thank you, Master Chen, for reminding me." "Well, there are also matters in your residence. Someone will come to ask you specifically later." This made Qin Chi mentally prepared. Chen Qianhu cooperated with Qin Chi last time. It was supposed to be a meritorious service, but unfortunately there was a spy on the Jinyiwei side and went to assassinate Qin Chi. Because they were wrong about this matter, Emperor Mingcheng also suppressed the Jinyiwei''s contribution. You can only admit that you are unlucky. However, Chen Qianhu caught the eye of the commander and was promoted to work beside him. Chen Qianhu still had official duties and could not stay with Qin Chi for a long time. Before leaving, he also told Qin Chi the news that the city of Zhangjiawan was occupied by rebels last night. This is equivalent to saying that the first pier in the capital was controlled by rebels. . As the material transshipment center at the northern end of the Grand Canal, Zhangjiawan is very important to the capital. If this matter gets serious, this throat is equivalent to being pinched by the rebels. Qin Chi thought that this was indeed the case. With He Liankai and Yan Jiangnan''s plans, how could they easily send a rebel army into the imperial city to be used as cannon fodder? It is indeed a big plan. When Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty gathered his troops to defend the imperial city, He Liankai sacrificed the small to seize the large. He completely took Zhangjiawan into his pocket and gained the upper hand in this battle. By the time Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty clears out the hidden dangers in the imperial city, the rebels outside may have already laid siege to the city. "How is it possible? How did so many rebels appear in the capital without being noticed by anyone?" Li Huarong couldn''t help it anymore, and pushed away Lao Huo to reveal his figure. Qin Chi looked at the back of Jin Yiwei as he hurriedly left. Thinking of how old Huo''s burly body had covered Li Huarong, Chen Qianhu didn''t notice him. Li Huarong was shielded by Lao Huo, probably because he didn''t want Emperor Ming Cheng to know that he was familiar with Qin Chi. Qin Chi actually didn''t care much about this. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! In the current situation, Emperor Mingcheng could not care about him. Qin Ba brought a carriage. Seeing that Li Huarong wanted to ask more questions, Qin Chi spoke first, "Sir, there are many people with mixed eyes. If you have anything to say, please go to the car first." "Okay, I''ll get in the car right now." Li Huarong lifted up the hem of his clothes, eagerly got into the carriage, and waited for Qin Chi to get into the carriage. Qin Chi had just sat down. Li Huarong asked: "Tell me, Zhangjiawan was really occupied by the rebels?" "You were also present just now. You should know that I just learned about this from Chen Qianhu. You asked me anxiously, but I can''t answer it." Qin Chi knew more than Li Huarong secretly. But it''s just a little more. These sources are not easy to talk to Li Huarong. Li Huarong frowned solemnly, "No, I have to go to the palace." "Sir, think again." Qin Chi stopped him and said, "You''d better go back home first and wait patiently for His Majesty''s summons. Sir, you shouldn''t know the information outside the city." Li Huarong is a smart man. I immediately figured out what Qin Chi said. The city gate is currently closed, no one can go out, there is no doorway, but there is no news about the fall of Zhangjiawan. If Li Huarong suddenly finds out, according to the suspicious temperament of Ming Cheng Emperor, he might overthink it and regard him as a spy. Disposed of. Li Huarong nodded. As one of the three pavilion elders, he does not need to take the initiative to enter the palace. With such a big thing happening in the court, Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty should summon the ministers to the palace to discuss the matter. Qin Chi sent Li Huarong back home in a carriage. Previously, the Li family members were also escorted back by Qin Chi''s people at dawn. They seemed to have escaped from death one by one. They looked at their home that was mostly burned down and wanted to cry without tears. When Li Huarong came back, he seemed to see the backbone. One by one, they gathered around and yelled, "Master, Elder, Master". Li Huarong didn''t have time to think too much. Qin Chi has already taken people away. The Qin mansion was uninhabitable, so Qin Chi returned to the house in Cuihua Hutong. On the way back, I encountered several groups of officers and soldiers blocking the way. After learning that it was Qin Chi, I let them go. Wait for Qin Chi and his party to go away. The officers and soldiers began to whisper. Chapter 415 After the war Chapter 415 After the War "Is it really Mr. Qin? Didn''t he say he was the first to suffer?" an officer and soldier asked in surprise. Someone next to me also sighed, "I look fine, and it doesn''t look like something big has happened. Rumor has it that there are at least a thousand rebels who went to the Qin Mansion." "You don''t know something about this." "What do you mean, you know the inside story?" "I just got the news that none of the people killed in the Qin Mansion''s fire were from the Qin family. They were all rebels who broke into the Qin Mansion!" "Wow, really?" "It''s a real pleasure. The rebels deserve to be damned." "Okay! Mr. Qin is still very powerful. He is a civil servant. I will be in trouble with anyone who says that he is a scholar in the future." Several officers and soldiers gathered around and chatted animatedly. A leading soldier next to him shouted, "What are you doing all around here?! No more work?" Immediately, the officers and soldiers dispersed in fright, and went to stand at their posts one after another, as if they were not the ones chatting just now. Go back to Cuihua Hutong. Qin Chi just lay down and took a nap when someone knocked on the door outside. He was awakened, sat up and asked: "Who? What''s the matter?" "Young Master Qi, someone is coming to the palace. Please enter the palace immediately." Qin Ba''s voice came from outside. Qin Chi could only get up and wash up, then dress quickly and put on formal official uniform. When they went out, the **** of the Supervisor of Ceremonies had been waiting outside for half an hour, but he did not dare to complain. When he saw Qin Chi, he respectfully stepped forward and saluted. "I have met Mr. Qin. I have come here specifically to convey His Majesty''s instructions. Please come into the palace immediately and discuss important matters." The **** bent slightly and his tone was very respectful. Qin Chi rolled up his sleeves and returned a half salute, "Thank you, father-in-law." Then he looked at Qin Ba standing aside. Qin Ba immediately understood and stuffed a purse into the eunuch''s hand without leaving any trace. The **** blocked it with his sleeves, squeezed his purse secretly, put it away with secret joy, and immediately walked in front, leading the way for Qin Chi like a bitch. He really doesn''t need him as a guide. Because Qin Chi knows the way, not to mention that this is still at Qin Chi''s house. He is used to doing this as a eunuch, and Qin Chi can''t tell him that he doesn''t need to do this. Qin Chi went out and got into the carriage. Lao Huo went to the kitchen, picked up a food box, followed him, and handed the food box to Qin Ba, "This is breakfast for the young master." "Okay, Brother Huo is still thoughtful." Qin Baxi took it with a smile and got into the car. Lao Huo sat on the shaft of the car holding his weapon. The person driving the carriage this time was Qin Yi, who was pretending to be a coachman. He only looked at each other and looked away from Lao Huo. He heard Qin Chi''s voice in the carriage saying "It''s time to set off." Qin Yi drove the carriage to the palace gate. There were more than ten guards around, running around the carriage. The carriage was not very fast, so they could keep up, and they could always pay attention to the abnormalities around them. This battle was followed by a small sedan chair. It was the small sedan chair of the **** association that came to deliver the oral message, and it became particularly conspicuous. However, the servants carrying the sedan had the badges of the Ministry of Internal Affairs hanging on their waists, so no one came to stop them. We reached the palace gate smoothly along the way. In front of the palace gate, Qin Chi smelled the strong smell of blood without getting out of the car. Qin Chi took out his handkerchief and covered his mouth and nose. Qin Ba opened the car curtain, and when Qin Chi went out, he raised his arm to block it to prevent Qin Chi from knocking his head. When Qin Chi got out of the car, he saw the body in the square in front of the palace gate. The body had been dragged away, but the blood stains were only half cleaned. There were still some officers and soldiers carrying buckets, washing away the blood stains on the ground. There were also people He was sweeping the blood on the ground with a broom. "Pray for peace?" "Master Qin!" "It''s actually Qin Shangshu? This is such a big fate. I thought you couldn''t escape." Follow the sound. Qin Chi saw other officials guarding the palace gate. The Imperial Guard stood guard in front of the palace gate. There are three floors inside and three floors outside, and there are also royal guards. Xia Wei and Yan Xianqing walked towards Qin Chi. The two of them were now very grateful to Qin Chi for reminding them in advance, which allowed them to avoid disaster. The officials who did not appear in the court this time were either dead or injured and could not get out of bed. The two came over and bowed deeply to Qin Chi. It was difficult to say some words of gratitude in front of everyone, but with such a bow, Qin Chi understood the meaning and returned the favor. "You two don''t have to be like this." Qin Chi said in a low voice. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The three of them exchanged pleasantries in a low voice. Xia Wei asked about the Qin Mansion. Qin Chi walked side by side to the palace gate with the two of them, and said as he walked: "I often encounter assassinations, and there are clues pointing to the forces behind the rebels. When I learned that the rebels broke into the imperial city, I knew that the rebels wanted to kill me. I had no choice but to hastily lay a trap and save all the rebels. It was really a fluke. But this time, I was homeless again. The house I finally got was in ruins. Rewarded by His Majesty. After talking about it, he looked distressed and regretful. Yan Xianqing consoled him: "It''s okay, as long as you live, money is something external to you." "I can only comfort myself this way." Qin Chi smiled bitterly. To others, this is normal. At this time, another carriage came over, and the person who got off was Li Huarong. When Li Huarong saw Qin Chi, he deliberately kept his distance. Then more ministers came over, some with bruises on their faces. Its almost time to wait for someone to arrive. The palace door is wide open. The officials looked through the layers of guards and saw several eunuchs who were in charge of rituals. The leading **** said a few polite words and then led the officials into the palace. The direction to go is Qianqing Palace. Qianqing Palace was not only the emperor''s bedroom, but also where Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty handled daily government affairs. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty wore a bright yellow dragon robe and sat in front of the dragon table. Sitting next to him is an old man who looks older than Emperor Ming Cheng. He has gray hair and deep wrinkles on his face. His eyes reveal the wisdom accumulated over the years. He sits there with his flat head giving people a sense of peace. This person was the elder who was trusted by Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty and the chief assistant of the Great Xia Dynasty. In addition, there is another person in the temple. It was none other than the emperor''s eldest son, Helian Mian. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty trained him and clearly taught him in front of the crown prince. Officials entering the palace bowed respectfully to Emperor Ming Cheng. Qin Chi stood out among the officials today, and Helian Mian glanced at him several times. The reason was that everyone thought he was dead, but later it was learned that he was not dead, but had killed thousands of rebels. His military exploits alone were higher than those of the soldiers who participated in the battle last night. Therefore, it was even more curious. Even Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty specifically asked about this matter. Chief Assistant Xu Lao asked with a smile: "Qin Shangshu used fire attack skills to burn thousands of rebels to death last night? I didn''t expect you to have learned the art of war." Qin Chi immediately said humbly: "I can''t say that I have studied it. I just flipped through two books in my spare time and know a little bit about it. It''s not enough to be a Taoist." Mr. Xu chuckled and didn''t ask any more questions. Emperor Ming Cheng summoned the ministers into the palace, naturally for a purpose. He quickly mentioned the serious situation in the court and asked everyone to discuss a solution as soon as possible. Chapter 416 shock Chapter 416 Shock After less than half an hour, there was still no safe way to come up with. The current urgent situation is not only the problem of the rebels last night, but also the dock in Zhangjiawan was occupied by the rebels. There will soon be a shortage of supplies in the city. A lack of food in the city would be fatal. "Your Majesty, we should seek rescue from the surrounding state capitals." A military general suggested. Emperor Mingcheng said coldly: "What other suggestions?" Everyone looked at each other. Mr. Xu said: "As early as the news of the Jianning rebels reached the capital, His Majesty had already ordered General Pei Xin to mobilize the army to rush back to the capital. Calculating the time, it will take less than half a month to arrive." That''s why we discussed it for so long. What everyone is asking is a useless question. This was the first time Qin Chi learned about this issue. Emperor Mingcheng should have sent a secret edict. If he said it at this time, it is likely that the city has been sealed. The city is under the control of Emperor Mingcheng, and he does not mind telling this news. In fact, as long as the army is open, it can''t hide for many days. The rebels would not raid the imperial city. Qin Chi suspected that Yan Jiangnan and others might have received the news, so they would attack east and west and occupy Zhangjiawan first. Both sides know the strength of the capital. Emperor Mingcheng had no idea before, but now he should know it. At present, they can only defend the imperial city and wait for rescue. "Qin Shangshu, do you have any suggestions?" When Mr. Xu saw the silent Qin Chi, he suddenly asked. When Qin Chi looked up at him in surprise, he explained, "You are the youngest here. Young people are energetic and active in thinking. Maybe there will be a solution." Its not like an old guy who has to think about a sentence several times and think twice. "Old Hui Xu, my experience is still inexperienced and far less than that of my predecessors. I can''t think of a way to crack it at the moment. However, the most important thing now is that in addition to guarding the city, there are also people in the city who need to be appeased to prevent the escaping rebels from entering the city. The second is the grain merchants in the city..." What Qin Chi said is really an issue that urgently needs attention in the city. The discussion just now was only about solving the problem of the rebels. No one has paid attention to the problems that may occur in the city, especially the food problem, which is still the top priority. If the price of food is raised through this, it is likely to cause panic among people. Emperor Ming Cheng also thought about this problem at the same time. He asked the courtiers to think of ways to stabilize the situation in the city. Finally, Emperor Ming Cheng actually said: "I will leave it to Qin Aiqing to stabilize the people and prices in the city. If necessary, you can ask the Jin Yiwei to assist you." "My lord, I obey the order." Qin Chi responded respectfully, but he was really speechless. He is the secretary of the Ministry of Industry. Shouldn''t prices and other matters be managed by the Ministry of Household Affairs? Even if it is not left to the Ministry of Revenue, the Department of Soldiers and Horses should be responsible. No matter what, it should not be his turn. It''s approaching noon. A group of ministers suddenly heard executions and screams coming from outside. Emperor Mingcheng led everyone out of the palace gate. I saw Jixiang leading people to clean up the spies in the palace, and captured more than a dozen palace residents to be beaten to death. "Ah! Lord Admiral, I am wronged. That thing is not a small thing, it was framed by someone..." "Spare the little one, ah!" The screams were endless. It sounded strange, and the person who came over seemed like someone he bumped into accidentally, and he was so frightened that his heart went crazy. Emperor Ming Cheng said indifferently: "Those who have two minds have no need to live." "What your Majesty said is absolutely true." echoed an official nearby. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty brought people to see this **** scene in order to shock and beat him. Everyone who should understand understands. Immediately, Emperor Ming Cheng asked people to leave. Qin Chi went to find the commander of the Jinyi Guards. Xia Wei, the Minister of Household Affairs, was silent, "His Majesty said that he would seek out the Jin Yiwei when necessary. Are you going there just after leaving Qianqing Palace?" Seeing that Qin Chi was not hiding anything, he couldn''t help but remind him. "I don''t want to, but the rebels who have escaped outside have not been cleared away, so it is very necessary. Otherwise, with the few manpower in the house and I, can we complete what His Majesty has told us?" Qin Chi not only wants to find the Jin Yiwei To borrow people, we have to go to Jingzhao Mansion and the Military and Horse Department to borrow people. "As for the grain merchants and other issues, I have to trouble Xia Shangshu to make it easier." He always wants to know how many grain merchants and grain shops there are in the capital, and who has the most grain hoards. He also has to go through the files of the Ministry of Household Affairs, or ask someone from the Ministry of Household Affairs to give a list. Xia Wei understood what he said, "This is a small matter. I will explain it later and let someone sort out the list." "Thank you." Qin Chi bowed to him gratefully. Xia Wei responded politely. The two of them were still walking together for a while. Xia Wei looked around and saw that the people closest to them were several feet away. He came close to Qin Chi and whispered: "There is something wrong with His Majesty, have you noticed?" "You mean...powder?" When Qin Chi spoke vaguely, he tapped his face with his finger. Xia Wei raised his eyebrows, "Did you notice?" "I found it when I looked up." Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Most courtiers did not dare to look directly at Emperor Ming Cheng. Qin Chi and others were no exception, but when Mr. Xu called his name, when he looked up at Mr. Xu, he secretly glanced at Emperor Mingcheng. In the past, Qin Chi would have ignored it, saying that he had put on Song Jin''s makeup. He studied it a few times in private and paid attention to it. He soon noticed that Emperor Ming Cheng''s complexion was inconsistent and not as rosy as he showed. After a few more looks, I realized it was powdered. Men wearing makeup has been very common in the Qin and Han Dynasties. The Great Xia Dynasty was no exception. In addition to applying powder and face grease, some men also used mouth grease and incense. Yan Xianqing especially loved spices and often used pepper to smoke his clothes. When he was near him, there was a smell of pepper. However, Emperor Ming Cheng might have paid attention to his appearance when he was young, but since he got older, he rarely bothers with himself. At least since Qin Chi entered the court as an official, he has hardly been a fan of Emperor Ming Cheng. This time there is. So, what to cover up? Sick look! After the rebels entered the palace, news in the palace was blocked. What happened in the palace last night, there was no news outside. However, it was impossible for Emperor Mingcheng not to be angry about such a big matter. Last time, Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty luckily escaped death due to the "rejuvenation" incident. It doesnt mean that nothing happened to your body. It''s just that there won''t be any problems in a short period of time. Now the rebels are in trouble again, and major events happen one after another. According to Emperor Ming Cheng''s violent temper, it will be difficult not to suffer from anger. However, you still need to cover up when you are sick... Things are getting serious! Xia Wei didn''t dare to think any further. He decided to hold in his stomach what he discovered today. Qin Chi, on the other hand, acted as if nothing had happened and went to find the important person in command of the Jinyi Guards. It happened that Chen Qianhu brought someone to assist him. He then went to the Household Department and the government office, and then to the government office of the Wucheng Army and Horses Division to ask for help. First, pay attention to the shops in the upper city to see if anyone is taking the opportunity to make money from the country''s difficulties. Sometimes, you will be reminded in time. Get busy once you get there. Qin Chi missed lunch again. Qin Ba came over with a food box and put it on the table in front of Qin Chi. He reported the situation in the city outside. For example, Mr. Wen Ge was seriously injured by the rebels last night and was lying at home waiting. "Sir, something happened in Wu Bohou''s mansion." Qin Ba whispered again. Qin Chi was surprised, "Isn''t he home last night?" "It was the escaped rebels who went to Wu Bohou''s mansion. The female relatives in the mansion were either dead or raped by the rebels, including Miss Wu..." Qin stopped at eight o''clock. Qin Chi has not yet taken action against the Wu family. The Wu family is in trouble again? Did the rebels go to Wu''s house intentionally, or did they pass by accidentally? Chapter 417 food crisis Chapter 417 Food Crisis Just half eaten lunch. Qin Chi saw Chen Qianhu striding in with an embroidered spring knife on his waist. "Sir, did you just have lunch?" Chen Qianhu asked in surprise. Qin Chi put down the bowl and chopsticks, took out a handkerchief and wiped his lips, then wiped his hands and said, "Have you used it, Mr. Chen?" "Used." Chen Qianhu glanced at Qin Ba standing aside. Qin Ba stood aside with lowered eyebrows and no intention of leaving. Chen Qianhu added: "I couldn''t wait for you outside for a long time, so I came here to take a look." "Thank you for remembering me." Qin Chi glanced at Qin Ba. Qin Ba understood the idea and bent forward to clear the table, put Qin Chi''s unfinished food back into the food box, and carried it to the tea room of the Yamen. When he came out, he brought out a kettle of boiling water and took out the tea set from the cabinet. There is no technical content. Clean the tea set, put a small amount of tea leaves into two celadon tureens, pour the tea with hot water, pour the water out, then pour in water, cover the lid, and bring it to Qin Chi and Chen Qianhu. Qin Ba''s method of making tea is rough. Qin Chi drank like this before and never said anything bad about it. Chen Qianhu also has no research on tea ceremony. A cup of tea can quench his thirst. The most important thing is that the tea is brewed in public, so there is no need to worry about anyone tampering with it. Qin Chi picked up the tea and blew the hot air. Chen Qianhu said complexly: "Master Qin can sit still." "I''m just talking, but the people below are the ones doing the real work." Qin Chi said it frankly, making Chen Qianhu speechless for a moment. This is the benefit of being a leader. Chen Qianhu looked around the room, then sat next to Qin Chi and whispered: "You don''t care about the Wu family? I heard that you and the eldest daughter of the Wu family are discussing marriage?" "Is this the time for children to grow in love?" Qin Chi stopped drinking tea and glanced at Chen Qianhu coolly, "Besides, I have nothing to do with the Wu family. The Wu family plotted against me in the first place, and I don''t believe that Jinyiwei will not find out." Chen Qianhu quickly confessed, "I didn''t mean any harm, I just wanted to tell you that the Wu family is gone." "No more?" Qin Chi looked surprised. Chen Qianhu told the truth: "The rebels went to the Wu family when they fled. By the time the officers and soldiers searched for the Wu family, the Wu family had been wiped out." It goes without saying what the words mean. According to Jin Yiwei''s inference, the rebels had great resentment towards Qin Chi. These rebels are all bandits, and burning, killing, and looting are common things they do. If they fail to defeat them, they can only consider themselves unlucky. In fact, it was also the Wu family that was unlucky. He Liankai suffered several serious losses at the hands of Qin Chi, and the rebels'' resentment against Qin Chi was greater than outsiders knew. Qin Chi''s wife and children were missing again. The Wu family, who were rumored to be marrying Qin Chi, fell into the eyes of some rebels. When they fled, they all picked up the Wu Bohou Mansion. Otherwise, the Wu family, a poor family, would not have been able to join the rebels. List. Chen Qianhu whispered again: "The rebels thought Miss Wu was your fiance and left notes in her room. They were all disgusting words." The general idea was that you kill my brother and I will sleep with your woman, etc. They were very vindictive and Chen Qianhu did not say them out loud. Qin Chi really didn''t know these details. Seeing that Qin Chi didn''t say a word and seemed to be in a bad mood, Chen Qianhu consoled him: "The disaster in Wu Bohou Mansion is entirely your own fault. It is not your fault, sir, and you don''t need to blame yourself." Qin Chi said in his heart There was no fluctuation, but he still sighed and said: "After all, I am involved, but I didn''t expect that there are so many people who hate me among the rebels. Mr. Chen would be better not to get too close to me in the future." Wu Jingyao had planned it first. It''s really no wonder Qin Chi. Chen Qianhu shook his head, "Master Qin, you are overly worried. To be honest, when approaching other officials, you have to worry about whether they are rebel spies. But it is different when I am with you. You don''t have to worry about this at all. , Sometimes Im curious about what you did to make the rebels so resentful, as if you dug up their ancestral graves. Qin Chi laughed twice and quickly changed the topic. Almost at the same time. Outside the city, Zhang''s manor. When He Liankai learned about the situation in the city last night, he was so angry that his face was as cold as frost, "A thousand people can''t kill him, life is really tough." Yan Jiangnan nodded, "Qin Qi''an is indeed difficult to kill. How many people did we lose just to kill him? Looking back, I feel that the gain was not worth the loss." Hearing this, He Liankai did not refute for the first time. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Because this is a fact. Yan Jiangnan advised again: "Lord, it''s not appropriate to stay here for a long time. It''s time to go to Zhangjiawan to take charge of the overall situation." Yan Jiangnan estimated that the strength of the troops here was not as good as the safety in Zhangjiawan, and added, "We must capture the capital before reinforcements arrive. As long as we enter the palace as soon as possible and kill Emperor Mingcheng, some problems can be solved Easy to solve." No matter how hard you fight in this world. After all, the world belongs to the Helian family. Yan Jiangnan had already set up a secret plot in the city. Normally it cannot be found. At this time, Yan Jiangnan still didn''t know that no one would notice the secret plot they had set up, but there was an abnormal Qin Chi who immediately suggested to Emperor Ming Cheng to investigate the food reserves in the city. No, the problem was discovered quickly. Still a big problem. Now Qin Chi was holding the results of the investigation with a solemn expression on his face. Chen Qianhu, the Jin Yiwei who followed him, naturally knew about it. After all, Qin Chi had to give orders in front of others to investigate or do anything. After reading the results of the investigation, Qin Chi said: "Mr. Chen, after asking most of the grain shops in Beijing, 90% of their grain stocks have long been bought by others at high prices. A few grain merchants noticed something was wrong and hid part of it. The grain was not sold, and the granary was burned down by the rebels last night. This was obviously planned for a long time. " Chen Qianhu was surprised, "Why is there no news about such a big thing?" "Those grain merchants have been silenced by buyers." A large deal was reached, and the buyer requested that the sale of grain should not be disclosed to outsiders for a month. This small request did not affect the interests of the grain merchants, and no one should comply. Therefore, more than ten days passed, and nothing happened. spread the word. The grain merchants in the city had no grain in stock. This is a big problem! Qin Chi said solemnly: "This situation should be reported to His Majesty immediately. According to the rebels'' intention, I am worried that there will be a problem with the government''s granary. Of course, I am not saying that there will definitely be a problem. I just suggest that someone be sent to check. No. Questions are the best, and you can prepare early if there are any problems. "What Qin Shangshu said makes sense." Chen Qianhu knew this and said it in a subtle way. The granary of the government has never been secure. If we investigate now, I am afraid that a number of officials will be killed afterwards. But now it''s so urgent that they can''t help but pretend to be deaf and dumb. Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty left this problem to Qin Chi. It''s okay for Qin Chi to report now. After procrastinating for a long time, the day came when the city ran out of food, and the responsibility fell to him. Chapter 418 Chaos in the city Chapter 418 Chaos in the city Qin Chi quickly wrote a note explaining the situation. After he finished writing the book, he handed it to Chen Qianhu. Chen Qianhu took the zhezi to the commander of the Jinyi Guards, and not long after, the zhezi was delivered to Emperor Mingcheng. When Emperor Mingcheng saw Zhezi, a surge of anger surged into his heart. After a moment, a fishy sweetness surged up in his throat. However, he quickly spit out the blood into the teacup with the action of drinking tea, then raised his head and drank. Go down. He put down the tea cup as if nothing had happened. Give the fold to Mr. Xuge on the side. Mr. Xu Ge''s hand holding the fold trembled slightly. Mr. Xuge had no doubts about the problem of the government granary. There was often a disaster here or somewhere, and the granary was never full. After reading the excerpt, Mr. Xuge returned to the imperial cabinet and said, "Your Majesty, let''s put down the responsibility for whoever is held accountable first. The most important thing now is to let Mr. Qin count the food, grass and materials in the city. At least we know how long the city can hold out and whether it can wait for the army. Come to the aid. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty agreed with what he said. Old Xuge changed the topic and suddenly said: "The Northwestern Tatars suddenly sent troops. Is it possible that they reached a consensus with the rebels to hold back Prince Rui? The old minister has been thinking about it for so long, and the more he thinks about it, the more something is wrong. It seems that There is a big hand controlling all of this, after all, there are too many coincidences. "There is a counselor beside He Liankai named Yan Jiangnan. It should be his work. I know that they are in the capital, but I don''t know where they are hiding." Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty took the fold, wrote the correct characters with a big stroke of his pen, and then stamped it with the emperor''s seal. Mr. Xuge said: "As long as we find this person, the situation in the capital can be reversed." "Yes, as long as the culprit dies, everything will be settled." Emperor Mingcheng was very murderous. Since the rebels were outside the city, they restrained themselves. However, the food problem broke out particularly quickly. Qin Chi took people to check the alleys of the granaries and found that most of the dozens of granaries were empty. A few granaries had grain in them, and the grain was less than half of the granaries. When he started checking, Qin Chi discovered a big problem. The outer layer is rice. The inside is almost entirely filled with rice bran mixed with gravel, making it inedible at all. While Qin Chi was checking, he noticed movement outside. After a while. It was the commander of Jin Yiwei who came over. Qin Chi greeted the other party, "Why is the commander here? But he came just in time." He pointed to the grain bag he had just opened. The sack is filled with rice bran, and the rice bran is also mixed with finely crushed sand and gravel. The commander of the Jin Yiwei''s face darkened, "I will report this to Your Majesty. I''d like to ask Qin Shangshu to count the numbers." "Can." Qin Chi is also unambiguous when doing things. He checked the accounts as quickly as possible, and then counted the existing grain quantity. After checking that there were no problems, he handed over the amount without leaving it in his hand for a moment. Qin Chi didn''t care much about what would happen after Emperor Mingcheng saw it, because it was getting dark and he wanted to go back to his house to rest. When he was in the mansion, Shopkeeper Tao had been waiting for him. "Sir, the personnel are ready. Also, He Liankai and Yan Jiangnan have not left Zhang''s Manor yet." "They are quite stable." Qin Chi set up an ambush on the way from the manor to Zhangjiawan. He would not prevent He Liankai and others from entering the city, but he would prevent them from joining the rebels in Zhangjiawan. It happened that after so long, they just didn''t come out. This was somewhat beyond Qin Chi''s expectation. Qin Chi asked: "Uncle Tao, under what circumstances do you want He Liankai to stay in Zhuangzi and not join the rebels in Zhangjiawan?" The largest force of the rebels is in Zhangjiawan. As the head coach He Liankai, he should have gone to Zhangjiawan early, but in fact he didn''t go and was still staying at Zhang''s Manor? "There is another thing that puzzles me. Zhang''s Zhuangzi should have been exposed long ago, and Yan Jiangnan''s caution should have been changed long ago, but they just didn''t." Qin Chi had questions one after another in his mind. Shopkeeper Tao pondered: "Could it be that Zhuangzi has another secret?" "Is there another mystery?" Qin Chi stood up suddenly. Zhang''s Zhuangzi was actually not far from the capital city, only a few miles away. He Liankai and Yan Jiangnan knew that the location was exposed, but they still stayed there, explaining that there was a reason why they had to stay there, "Go and check, we must find out!" There are their people outside the city. When the city is closed, people can''t get out, but the news can get out. Chaos in the city broke out faster than others expected. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! When Qin Chi woke up the next day, he learned that news of a food shortage in the city had spread, and many people who were hiding at home ventured out to buy food at grain stores. However, grain stores restricted purchases under the auspices of the government. Even so, food was limited, and some people deliberately instigated it, so more people made trouble on the streets, and vandalism and looting often occurred. The superiors gave orders to kill those who caused trouble. The officers and soldiers immediately killed the man without even taking him into prison. Thousands of people died in one operation, causing panic, but fortunately, the unrest was temporarily suppressed. However, smart people know that this kind of calm is only temporary. The big reason is that people still have more or less food in their homes, but it will not be certain after a period of time. When people really reach the end of their rope, the government''s deterrent will become smaller. Chaos will be inevitable by then, unless someone solves the problem of food shortage in the city. Almost on the same day. Qin Chi was assassinated on his way to the Yamen. The man was injured and in a coma, and the situation was even more serious due to his old illness. However, the first thing Qin Chi did when he woke up was still thinking about his duties, which moved the Jin Yiwei who came to visit him. There was really no other way, so Chen Qianhu handed him a request for leave, and then handed him a plea note for Qin Chi. Emperor Mingcheng was suspicious, so he sent an imperial doctor to the Qin Mansion. He learned that Qin Chi was indeed injured and seriously ill. Then Qin Chi was allowed to recuperate at home, and the matters at hand were passed on to others. Some people suspect that Qin Chi did it on purpose. He came to the house under the guise of a medical visit, but found no problem, and felt that Qin Chi was just unlucky. Chaos broke out quickly in the city. It''s only three days. No one is robbing on the street, crimes are being committed at night, and there are more and more cases of home invasions and robberies. Most of them occurred in Xicheng. Most of the people living in Xicheng were ordinary people. There were many poor people and there were a large number of people. Dragons and snakes were mixed together. And because there are no dignitaries living here, the intensity of government inspections is not strong here. Gradually, it happened not only in Xicheng, but also in other places. At first, officers and soldiers went to check, but later they delayed reporting the incident, saying they couldn''t send the manpower. Cuihua Hutong, Qin Mansion. In the study, Qin Chi was sitting in front of the desk, reading the information sent today. "The situation in this city is not right." Lao Huo on the side said with a straight face while holding his weapon. Qin Ba next to him raised his head, "What''s wrong?" "The government doesn''t suppress people who commit crimes, and doesn''t even send people to investigate. Isn''t this condoning crime?" Mr. Huo felt that the court was working passively. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty had previously asked his young master to stabilize the people in the city. Now that his young master was injured and at home, he should arrange for another person to take over the matter. Now not only is there no one to take over, but the chaos in the city is no longer suppressed. Chapter 419 Confrontation Chapter 419 Confrontation "Nothing surprising." Qin Chi just saw the secret message coming from the palace, threw the letter into the brazier, and stood up wearing a robe, "Because the time you have been waiting for is coming soon." Lao Huo''s eyes lit up. Qin Ba was also in high spirits. Qin Chi strode out, and the two of them quickly followed. The assassination was deliberately arranged. In order to act realistically, Qin Chi suffered some skin injuries, which were not serious as reported. As for the so-called old illness, with Dr. Jing here, it is not difficult to fake the pulse. In the past, when I wanted to avoid being noticed, I had used the trick of pretending to be sick. Before evening comes. Shocking news suddenly came from the palace. Emperor Mingcheng suddenly vomited blood and fell into coma. The prince made a rare appearance, being carried by the palace servants and accompanied by the emperor''s eldest grandson. The father and son stepped up to take charge. King Shou and King Lu took their wives and children into the palace to attend to the illness. Of course, the news that Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty was seriously ill only spread to a small area among the upper echelons of the capital, and there were various speculations in private. The worst outcome is that Emperor Ming Cheng becomes ill and the Xia Dynasty is replaced by another emperor. At first, the people in the city were panicked. Now even the princes and nobles are worried. The situation is not the worst, only worse. The rebels came to the city overnight. The news suddenly exploded in the city. In order to inquire about the news, some people gathered in teahouses and restaurants, etc., and talked a lot about the rebels outside the city. Someone exclaimed, "What? The rebels are attacking the city again!" "What should I do? I can''t leave the city and I can''t escape!" "These traitors deserve to die. It''s hard to live a peaceful life. You have to torment people like this." "Do you know who the leader of the rebels is? It is said that he is the eldest son of the late emperor. The former prince should have been a legitimate emperor, but now he went against heaven and killed his brother to win the throne. He is not plotting rebellion now, he is Bring order to the chaos!" An old man dressed as a scholar stood up and said righteously. Not just this old man. There are similar rumors in various places in the city. If Qin Chi heard this, he would definitely know that this was the layout of the banquet in Jiangnan. He would take the lead to reveal the situation to the people in the city. He held up the force of justice and wanted to reverse his remarks. In fact, he wanted to tell the people and courtiers of Daxia that Emperor Ming Cheng and the rebels The war is still a battle of orthodoxy. No matter who wins in the end, it has little to do with them. Anyway, the emperor''s surname is still Helian. The night falls, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse. The rebels blocking the east city gate began to attack the city. The East City Gate is close to Zhangjiawan, and the rebels did not sacrifice the distance. The troops in the city kept moving to the East City Gate. Perhaps most of the city''s attention was attracted by the war at the East City Gate. Throughout the first half of the night, there was the sound of war drums and golden gongs in the east, as well as shouts and howls, including screams and cries. Without seeing the scene, just hearing the sound, one can tell that thousands of troops are fighting. on the other side. Zhang''s Manor. A rebel army is hiding here. All the soldiers were ready to go, each wearing black armor, holding sophisticated spears, and their appearance was neat. Standing in front is a man, riding a tall war horse, wearing armor, carrying a sword at his belt, and holding a halberd. The only thing that was different from the soldiers behind him was that he was wearing a mask, and his eyes revealed an awe-inspiring killing intent. This army was different from the ones sent into the city earlier. The army in front of them looked more like they had been trained since childhood than the rebel army that had invaded the city earlier. They were brave, but they were bandit and murderous, and few of them were good. He Liankai and Yan Jiangnan used them to consume the troops in the city and achieve their subsequent goals. It was a bit regretful but not distressing. He Lian Kai was about to raise his sword. "Lord, please think again!" Yan Jiangnan hurried over and grabbed the reins of the horse, "A gentleman cannot stand under a dangerous wall. You cannot take risks." "Mr. Yan, I have been waiting for half my life, and I finally have the opportunity to kill my enemy today. You don''t have to persuade me anymore. If you fail tonight, please ask Mr. Yan to help my step-son." He Liankai motioned to the confidant beside him and pulled Yan Jiangnan away. No matter how Yan Jiangnan tried to persuade him, he still insisted on going his own way. He Liankai pointed forward and shouted: "Let''s go!" "Set off!" Tens of thousands of generals shouted in unison. There were more than a dozen soldiers in front of them, opening an underground passage. Immediately, someone walked ahead holding a torch and lit the oil lamps on the left and right sides of the passage wall. The passage is relatively wide, allowing five people to walk side by side. The army entered the tunnel in an orderly manner. He went in with his war horse and kept the noise to a minimum. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! Entering the tunnel from the outside, when you come out, you are in the capital city, or Caifang in the West City. You directly crossed the city wall from the underground passage and entered the city. It is not far from Caifang to the palace gate, and it will be faster on horseback. This sudden rebel army rushed over quickly. Even if it was noticed, it would be too late to stop them. What''s more, a few days ago, a rebel army of tens of thousands broke into the city. They were massacred indiscriminately when they entered the city. The rebels were defeated and fled, but nearly half of the imperial city''s troops were consumed. The injured and disabled are still being treated. It only takes a few days. Before they could catch their breath, tens of thousands of rebels were about to attack the city. The battle at the East City Gate was fierce. 70% of the city''s defenders were stationed at the East City Gate to defend against the enemy. The remaining troops were distributed at various city gates and guarding the palace. A force of tens of thousands of elite soldiers suddenly appeared at the palace gate. This is fatal. Coupled with the help of traitors in the imperial guards, it can be said that the rebels broke into the imperial city, but there was not much resistance. They had an overwhelming momentum. The war horses broke into the palace and fought all the way to the Hall of Supreme Harmony. He Liankai was wearing armor and his sword was stained with blood. Crowded by his confidants, he strode into the Hall of Supreme Harmony. According to the information obtained, Emperor Ming Cheng was waiting for him in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The splendid Hall of Supreme Harmony is brightly lit. At the highest position, Emperor Mingcheng wore a noble dragon robe and sat on the dragon chair with great momentum. The dragon robe on his body has delicate and flexible dragon patterns, as if it is alive and dancing on the robe, like a real dragon. The soft purple and golden colors of the dragon pattern are intertwined, reflecting the solemn majesty of the emperor. Brothers who have been separated for many years. The distant eyes collided together. One is full of murderous intent, and the other is extremely majestic. Suddenly, another group of rebels broke into the Hall of Supreme Harmony. They looked fierce, armed with sharp weapons, and approached Emperor Ming Cheng step by step with a fierce light. Upon seeing this, the imperial guards and imperial guards immediately attacked. The flames of war instantly ignited the entire palace. Amidst the fierce fighting sounds, blood kept staining the hall red, and people kept falling down. The entire Hall of Supreme Harmony seemed to have turned into a battlefield, and the clanging sound of swords clashing could be heard endlessly. "stop!" "stop!" Emperor Ming Cheng and He Lian Kai shouted almost at the same time. Immediately, the two parties who were fighting were asked to stop and each retreated in front of the master. Chapter 420 Blood-stained Hall of Supreme Harmony Chapter 420 The Blood-Stained Palace of Supreme Harmony He Liankai narrowed his sinister eyes and stared at Emperor Mingcheng for a long time, then he said: "I heard that you are terminally ill, so we will come over in a hurry and want to send you off personally. It doesn''t seem to be the case at the moment. " Why would he rush into the palace in such a hurry? It was precisely to kill his enemy with his own hands and see him die in front of him. If he conquered the world, but he himself died of illness, how could that relieve the hatred in his heart? Emperor Mingcheng said indifferently: "I didn''t expect it was really you." "I didn''t expect that someone who should have died long ago would stand in front of you one day and force you into such a situation. I wonder if you regret that you didn''t check more carefully back then." He Liankai was able to escape successfully. It was not because Emperor Ming Cheng was negligent, but because his and Yan Jiangnan''s layout was detailed enough. He is so meticulous that even the smallest parts of his body must be made consistent with his own. The rich and powerful raise a substitute, not just one. He has been raising children since he was a child, choosing children who are similar to himself, sometimes even among his relatives. Whenever the master is injured, the same injury will be caused on the double. He usually eats and sleeps in the master''s palace and will not be exposed in front of others unless necessary. Emperor Mingcheng knew that the other party had a substitute. For this reason, he killed several substitutes, but he didn''t expect that one of them would be so similar to the other person. Then the fight started again. The situation in the palace was very unexpected. A large number of guards poured out of the side hall, aiming their bows and arrows at He Liankai and others. In addition, the commander of the Jinyi Guards led people to protect Emperor Mingcheng. This was obviously well prepared. He Liankai sneered, "This is another move, do you want to invite me to the urn? Let me just say, how can you win so smoothly along the way? Don''t say that your heart is as vicious as before." Emperor Mingcheng stood up and looked directly at He Liankai, "How could I have allowed you to appear here otherwise?" "Hahaha, do you think you won?" He Liankai showed no fear at all. Emperor Mingcheng said: "As long as I kill you, this war will end." "You are wrong. It is not the last moment yet. It is still unclear who will win and who will lose." How could He Liankai have no countermeasures? He turned around and shouted, "Bring me here!" Emperor Mingcheng couldn''t help but frown. I saw a group of people being pushed and shoved out by the rebels. There were men and women, adults and children. Without exception, they were all well-dressed and pampered, with fear and uneasiness on their faces. The leader among them is the prince who is being supported by others. King Shou and his family members are all present. The only person who is not here is the eldest son of the emperor, Helian Mian. Because of the battle at the East City Gate, Helian Mian went there, but he happened to be away from the palace. He Liankai smiled wantonly, "I didn''t expect that." When they broke into the palace, the rebels secretly divided into several groups. The largest group was He Liankai, who led his men to continue the fight to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, while the others went to capture Emperor Ming Cheng''s sons and concubines. "Thanks to you for summoning them into the palace in advance, it is much easier for us to catch them." He Liankai said with a mocking look on his face. Emperor Mingcheng''s eyes were about to burst, "Impossible! Who betrayed me?" His eyes sternly scanned everyone present. The purpose of summoning King Shou, King Lu and others into the palace in advance was to ensure their safety. The hiding place should not be known to others. However, if they were caught so quickly, someone among them must be betrayed. "When you killed my wife and children, did you ever think that one day it would happen to you?" Helian Kai''s sword was placed on the prince''s neck. The prince was nearly forty years old, and his face was full of morbidity and paleness. If he hadn''t been through something like this, he might not have lived long. However, he was the calmest one when it came to this kind of thing. Emperor Ming Cheng had blue veins popping out on his face, "What do you want?" "What do you want? There are so many things I want to do. Come on, kneel down and beg me first." He Liankai suddenly wanted to see Emperor Ming Cheng kneel down. The prince suddenly grabbed the sword with one hand. Blood overflowed from his fingers. He looked at his father in the supreme position, with unexpected calmness in his eyes, "Father, you don''t have to bow your head for your son. If you want to, you can avenge your son." The winner never gives the loser a chance to stand up. Just like Emperor Mingcheng back then, he did not give the other party any way to survive. It''s just a lack of skills that allowed people to escape. The prince suddenly took the initiative to commit suicide by pulling his neck. A line of blood gushed out from his neck, and then he fell sideways to the ground. Many people were shocked by this scene. Even He Liankai did not expect that the prince would seek death so decisively. There was a flash of pity in his eyes, and at the same time he was extremely angry. He raised his head and looked at Emperor Mingcheng angrily. Unexpectedly, Emperor Mingcheng was furious when he saw this scene. Blood spat out. Ji Xiang on the side hurriedly helped the person. He Liankai, who was in a bad mood, suddenly laughed, "Hahaha, Heliance! You have a good son. He would rather die than drag you down. Hahahaha, such a filial child is only because of you. That ridiculous fear is destroyed, I especially want to ask you, do you regret it? " Emperor Ming Cheng raised his hand and pointed at He Liankai, "You, you are talking nonsense!" It wasn''t just the two people talking at this time. Everyone in the hall was shocked. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! The meaning of these words is too shocking. In the past, the prince was poisoned and injured his body, but it was Emperor Mingcheng who caused it? "Your Highness! Your Highness..." The princess threw herself in front of the prince with tears in her eyes. The prince''s eyes fell on her, his lips opened and closed, as if he wanted to say something but couldn''t. The only thing he heard from He Lian Kai was that he was not shocked or disbelieving. Unexpectedly calm. This is obviously something that has been known for a long time. On his deathbed, he looked at the Crown Princess with nostalgia and guilt, and finally slowly closed his eyes. The Crown Princess was so distraught that she quickly took out her hairpin, stabbed herself in the heart, and fell on the Prince''s body. It''s not over yet. He Liankai threatened Emperor Mingcheng again with King Shou and King Lu, "Your brother committed suicide, do you two want to follow in his footsteps? To be honest, you two are living a useless life, and there is no blood in you that belongs to the men of our Helian family." " King Shou and King Lu bowed their heads. It''s not that they don''t want to stand out, it''s that problems arise whenever they stand out. Let''s first look at the outcome of the prince, and then look at the example of King Lu being disabled. Suddenly, King Shou stood up and slammed into a pillar in the palace. No matter what, he would not survive. It would be better if he chose his own way of death, at least he could retain some dignity. He Liankai was surprised again and looked up at Emperor Mingcheng again, "I''m about to die, and I finally see some blood. It''s really rare." Emperor Mingcheng tried hard not to faint, but he still couldn''t hold back and said, "Kill! Kill me!" Suddenly, Emperor Mingcheng issued an order, pointed angrily at He Liankai, and shouted loudly: "I want him to die! I want him to die! No matter what the cost!...I want him to die!" The imperial guards and imperial guards in the palace took action, especially the archers, and their arrows shot at He Lian Kai almost at the same time. The rebel soldiers raised their shields in front of He Liankai, hurriedly blocked the long arrows, and then retreated through the door of the main hall. When it comes to ruthlessness, it still belongs to Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty. The enemy still had a group of hostages in their hands, and firing arrows at this time would at least kill most of them. However, Emperor Mingcheng did it anyway and did not accept Helian''s threat at all. Chapter 421 The oriole behind Chapter 421 The oriole is behind Emperor Ming Cheng has been the emperor for so long. How could he not understand that the current situation has long been a life-and-death situation, with no possibility of making peace? The most important thing is that his life is short. Dr. Zhuo had clearly told him. With a peaceful mind and careful care, one can probably live for more than three months. However, when he saw the prince commit suicide just now, Emperor Mingcheng thought that he had long been used to seeing life and death. Faced with this situation seriously, the white-haired man sent the black-haired man away, and he was still greatly stimulated. Just like what he yelled just now, now he only has one thought in his mind: to kill He Lian Kai at any cost, even if he dies with him. Totally regardless of the consequences. Even at this moment, he didn''t think about winning or losing. All I want to do is kill He Lian Kai! If He Lian Kai regards Emperor Ming Cheng as his enemy, then He Lian Kai is a thorn in Emperor Ming Cheng''s heart. When he thought the thorn he had pulled out was still there, the anger almost reached its peak, and even the fear and accumulated dissatisfaction with Prince Rui over the years became insignificant and insignificant. The fighting in the palace was more cruel than at the East City Gate. The east gate is used for siege and defense, long-distance battles. There was a close-range fight in the palace, and both sides were red-eyed until the end. The rebels led by He Liankai initially seemed to have the upper hand. In fact, Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty had already prepared and set up an ambush. The Jin Yiwei fought against tens of thousands of elite rebels, and were assisted by the Imperial Guards. From the initial even match, the battle gradually turned around. At the end of the battle, Ning Guogong appeared with thousands of Shenji battalions, and then started a one-sided killing of the rebels. It wasn''t until daybreak that the turmoil subsided. He Liankai retreated out of the palace under the **** of his confidants. When they escaped to the big house at the entrance of Caifang Tunnel, they discovered that Qin Chi had been waiting there, waiting for him to fall into an ambush. Qin Chi sat leisurely in front of the tunnel entrance, tapping the handle of the chair with his fingers. There were dozens of secret guards guarding him. Thousands of soldiers from the Shenji Battalion appeared around the yard, holding crossbows and pointing at He Liankai and others. As long as Qin Chi gave an order, these bows and arrows could instantly turn them into hedgehogs. "Is it you? Qin Qian!" He Liankai gritted his teeth and said in hatred. Qin Qian stood up from the chair. He was alienated, Qing Jun was cold and cold. He took a few steps forward and bowed his hands to Helian Kai in a polite and considerate manner, giving a junior salute to Helian Kai. "Outsiders are blind and say you look like that idiot in the palace. In my opinion, you look more like your grandfather. You act like a scholar and never do human affairs." The murderous intent in He Liankai''s eyes was about to overflow. Qin Chi was scolded, but his expression remained unchanged. It doesn''t matter if it doesn''t hurt or hurt, it doesn''t matter if you get scolded a few times for making someone suffer so badly. The two have been fighting behind each other''s back, and this is the first time they have met up close. Last time at Zuixian Tower, Qin Qi''an stood in the shadows, and He Liankai only saw a vague figure, not a meeting. But this time when He Liankai saw Qin Chi with a calm posture, it was like meeting Prince Rui in his memory. Not in appearance, but in temperament. "What I regret most in my life is that I didn''t send someone to find out the whereabouts of your mother and gave her the opportunity to give birth to a scoundrel like you!" After He Liankai cursed, he said angrily, "I haven''t If I lose, what if I die here? I will still overturn the country of Daxia and let the country of Daxia bury me with me!" Qin Qi''an raised his right hand coldly and moved his fingers lightly. The tunnel entrance behind you. A secret guard came out with their faces covered. Yan Jiangnan was in a state of embarrassment, **** with ropes, and was held captive by two secret guards. He Liankai''s eyes widened fiercely, and he glared at Qin Chi again. If looks could kill, Qin Chi had been cut into pieces by a thousand cuts. "Qin Qian, what did you do?" "I didn''t do anything. I just asked someone to go to Zhuangzi when you invaded the palace. Inviting Mr. Yan to keep you company is a token of my gratitude to you." Qin Chi looked respectful, as if a junior was paying homage to you. Greetings, elders. He Liankai''s blood suddenly surged and he felt dizzy. The mantis stalks the cicada while the oriole follows behind. He fought to the death with Emperor Ming Cheng, and the one who got the advantage was actually Prince Rui''s lineage? The current development is completely beyond He Liankai''s expectations! What he said just now that he didn''t lose was not a lie, because without him in charge, Yan Jiangnan would still be in charge of the overall situation. However, Yan Jiangnan was also captured? ! In this way, the rebels outside the city almost have no backbone. In other words, they will be leaderless. The advantages that Hao Hao had before would gradually be lost without him and Yan Jiangnan controlling the overall situation from behind. He Liankai knew very well that with the abilities of the Liu family and his son, it would not be easy to occupy a place in this world. "Lord?!" Yan Jiangnan had just come back to his senses and was equally shocked when he saw He Liankai, "Why are you here? It''s not time to attack..." Soon, he noticed the situation around him, and he was stunned for a long time. Gradually, his energy disappeared visibly to the naked eye, and he murmured: "Lost? Defeated? It shouldn''t be like this, it shouldn''t be like this! " "The ways of heaven are unfair, the ways of heaven are unfair!" Yan Jiangnan raised his head and asked the sky angrily, "Why? Why?! I, Yan, have worked hard for most of my life, but in the end I fell short!" He was unwilling to let his ambition go unfulfilled! The belief that supported Yan Jiangnan seemed to collapse in an instant, making him look extremely depressed. Suddenly he struggled to open the secret guard''s hand and rushed towards Qin Chi. It''s like he wants to kill Qin Chi! Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! "Protect the young master!" "Master, be careful!" Several urgent voices sounded. Qin Yi next to him drew his sword in front of Qin Chi, pointing straight at Yan Jiangnan. Yan Jiangnan knew that there was a knife in front of him, but he still hit the tip of the knife. Qin Yizheng was about to put away his sword. "Perform him!" Qin Chi suddenly spoke up. Therefore, Qin Yi did not put away his sword. "laugh" The tip of the knife pierced Yan Jiangnan''s chest. There was a moment of silence all around! Qin Chi said coldly: "I am willing to die for Lumen, but I don''t want to die and suffer in this world." Hearing this, Yan Jiangnan raised his head and looked at Qin Chi, and opened his mouth with difficulty: "What a pity..." What''s the pity? Maybe it was a pity that the person who finally understood him was his opponent, maybe it was a pity that his lifelong ambition was wasted like this, maybe it was something... no one in the world knows. Yan Jiangnan closed his eyes forever with regret. At this time, Qin Yi withdrew the knife, then stretched out his arm to gently lay Yan Jiangnan''s body flat on the ground. Qin Chi and Yan Jiangnan have different positions. He would not accuse Yan Jiangnan of anything, let alone smear his life because of it. A gentleman would do something and not do something. Even if he is an opponent, Qin Chi will give him the respect he deserves as a scholar. Qin Chi said to the people around him: "Give him a good burial." "Yes, sir." The secret guard next to him took Yan Jiangnan''s body down. There are many things in the world that cannot be controlled by oneself. Only the heart can weather the storm. Some people stick to their lifelong beliefs and would rather die than surrender. Chapter 422 Zen position Chapter 422 Zen Position He Liankai was stunned for a long time, then he cursed angrily: "Qin Qi''an, you are very good! Very good! As long as I don''t want you, I will never let you go!" "Don''t worry, I will give you a generous burial as well." Qin Chi would not give him a chance to escape. In fact, this matter is not complicated. When He Liankai invaded the palace, Qin Chi took the opportunity to attack the manor and captured Yan Jiangnan. There is one thing that Qin Chi agrees with Emperor Ming Cheng, that is, as long as the two of them are dead, the capital''s dilemma can be solved. The manor outside the city is said to be a farmhouse, but it is actually a private military camp that previously hid tens of thousands of troops. In order to occupy Zhangjiawan a few days ago, He Liankai transferred most of them away, leaving only 10,000 elites, and there was a secret road leading to the city. This secret passage was built bit by bit by Yan Jiangnan for ten years. This was also the reason why they still didn''t evacuate when Qin Chi knew their location. But everything they did was ultimately defeated by Qin Chi. He Liankai''s regret reached its peak. Qin Chi should have been killed at all costs instead of letting him grow! Qin Chi said: "Put down the weapon and capture him without mercy." "Don''t even think about it! Kill me!" He Liankai pointed the tip of his sword at Qin Chi. The cronies beside him quickly raised their swords and rushed towards Qin Chi. "Fire the arrow!" Suddenly, Qin Chi gave an order. The bow and arrow, which had been stringed long ago, were shot out with a roar. One by one, he shot at the enemy. After a while, Qin Chi fell down in front of him, and the blood dyed the bluestone red. Within a moment, everyone around He Liankai died. Only He Liankai was still standing, but the mask on his face was shot off by a long arrow, and there was another **** **** on his cheek that already had several scars. He was as fierce as a lone wolf, staring at Qin Chi, his eyes full of unwillingness and resentment. Just when he was about to raise his sword to kill himself, a hidden weapon suddenly hit his wrist, making him unable to hold the hilt of the sword, and the sword fell to the ground. Then, several secret guards rushed over and captured He Liankai''s hands. To prevent him from resisting. Qin Yi quietly stepped forward and covered He Liankai''s mouth and nose with a drugged handkerchief. After struggling for a moment, He Liankai lost consciousness. He wanted to commit suicide, but Qin Chi refused. Qin Chi also wanted to use He Lian Kai to quell the turmoil outside. He strolled forward, bent down and picked up He Lian Kai''s mask that had fallen to the ground and was stained with blood. He looked at the mask carefully, handed it to Qin Yi, and ordered: "Take the mask for him and send it to the east city gate. Then tell the guard there that Yan Jiangnan is dead!" Threatening the rebels with Helian Kai can make the rebels surrender. He Liankai probably thought of this and chose to commit suicide but was stopped by others. Qin Yi was even given the drug by his master. The guard of the East City Gate is Qin Chi''s man. As long as He Lian Kai is sent there, he will know what to do. As for Helianmian, Qin Chi ignored him. Qin Chi took people to the palace. Starting from Chengtian Gate, he walked through blood all the way to the emperor''s palace, which is the Qianqing Palace. When Qin Chi came in, the important officials who were guarding the palace of Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty consciously retreated to both sides without any need to inform. Even Ning Guogong also consciously stood beside him, trying his best to be invisible. Lying on the bed, Emperor Mingcheng no longer had the majesty of the past. He was just a dying old man. "Who are you?" Emperor Mingcheng raised his eyes and looked at Qin Chi, "Can I say it? I never knew you were so popular." By this time, he would be stupid not to see clearly. Qin Chi straightened his sleeves and bowed to Emperor Ming Cheng in a formal manner without any disrespect on his face. He replied: "Your Majesty, my surname is Qin, my given name is Chi, my given name is Qi''an. My grandfather is...Prince Rui." Emperor Mingcheng''s eyes widened sharply. He raised his hand and pointed at Qin Chi tremblingly. Qin Chi gave another junior gift. Blood relationship is very important in the royal family, but it is not that important. It can be discarded when necessary. "The Great Xia Dynasty is experiencing internal and external troubles. It is in a period of turmoil. Without a person of high moral character and high prestige, it is impossible to bring the people of the world to their hearts. I sincerely request that your majesty give the throne to Prince Rui." Qin Chi bowed to the end. Ning Guogong next to him knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, please give the throne to Prince Rui. The emperor''s eldest grandson is still young and cannot support the overall situation. The rebels outside are still attacking the city." "I sincerely request your Majesty to abdicate as Prince Rui." Li Huarong agreed. "I beg your Majesty..." A group of courtiers followed and knelt down. Emperor Mingcheng pursed his lips. His lips were trembling constantly, and his heart was obviously very uneasy. Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version! During the battle in the Hall of Taihe, all three sons of Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty died, and only one of his grandsons was left in infancy. He was protected by his mother''s death in her arms and survived. Emperor Sun Helianmian is still alive. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty had already sent people to invite Helianmian to return to the palace, because he knew that he could not hold on for long, and before he died, he wanted to pass the throne to his eldest grandson. However, before Helianmian returned to the palace, Qin Chi got there first and went straight in to force him to give up his throne to Prince Rui! For the courtiers. When choosing between Prince Rui and Helian Mian, they are more inclined to support Prince Rui. Qin Chi''s words were suspected of being intimidating, but they were not unreasonable. Prince Rui and his family were the first to stand up in support. Others followed suit. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty sarcastically said: "How many years can Prince Rui last on the throne? He has no heirs." "My uncle is still alive." "Don''t you know how long he can live?" "My eldest son''s surname is Helian." Qin Chi suddenly said this, and Emperor Mingcheng pointed at him angrily, as if he wanted to scold his mother, but he didn''t curse out loud. At this moment, He Lianmian, who had hurried back, was blocked by Qin Chi''s people outside the Qianqing Palace. Qin Chi never avoided Emperor Mingcheng when doing anything. He was so blatant that he whispered in Emperor Mingcheng''s ear and asked: "Has your Majesty, in all these years, ever felt guilty towards my grandfather? He has always treated you as a child." Brother, what about you?" None of the courtiers here stood up to speak to Emperor Ming Cheng, including Mr. Xuge, who had always regarded himself as his confidant. Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty looked at Mr. Xu Ge, who had never said a word, "Xu Aiqing, do you also agree that I will pass the throne to Prince Rui?" Mr. Xuge did not raise his head to look directly at Emperor Mingcheng. He folded his hands in his long sleeves and said, "Your Majesty should know that today''s Great Xia Dynasty is in turmoil due to internal and external troubles and is in urgent need of an emperor with both ability and political integrity at the helm, rather than a growing young emperor. , the situation does not allow it. "The situation doesn''t allow it!" Emperor Mingcheng coughed violently. Lying in front of the bed, he coughed up a mouthful of black blood. Many times, the situation was stronger than the people. No matter how unwilling Ming Cheng was, he still wrote the imperial edict for the Zen position under such circumstances. As for him who dared to fight to the death with He Lian Kai, after he calmed down, he no longer had the courage to rather live in pieces than in ruins. The imperial edict for the Zen position was made in front of all the ministers, and there is no need to question its authenticity. Prince Rui is away, so Qin Chi is temporarily in charge of the overall situation. At the same time, Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty made Qin Chi promise to treat Helian Mian and another grandson well, and then died with hatred that night. Chapter 423 Escape Chapter 423 Escape The changes in the capital have not yet spread widely. Besides, Song Jin''s journey back to Huizhou was thrilling. The river was intercepted by the navy, and the rebels were very strict. I heard that some of the merchant ships passing by had been requisitioned by the imperial court, and young men might be recruited to serve as soldiers. Regardless of whether the news is true or false. After Xing Lun and Song Jin discussed it, they decided to go ashore instead of taking the land route. It was well hidden, and there was no chance that there would be a traitor in the fleet. In addition, the master behind Xing Lun was Song Jin, which was no longer a secret. The order those people received was that they would rather kill him by mistake than let him go. Song Jin''s whereabouts were exposed in this way. Xing Lun and others fought tooth and nail to save Song Jinniang and the others. They pursued them all the way to the border of Yangzhou, and the men who escorted them were either killed or wounded. Wei Yuan and others diverted the pursuers. Xing Lun escaped with Song Jinniang and the others alone and escaped into the mountains and forests, only to temporarily escape the pursuing killer. In a dense forest. People who have been running away for a day and a night are very tired. Tired is the second most important thing, but I am also hungry and thirsty. At that time, he was forced to flee into the mountains, so Xing Lun had some money on him and only had a dagger. Song Jin hugged Guaiguai. He hugged Niu Niu. After traveling through the mountains and forests for so long, I am lucky that I haven''t had any problems yet. Fortunately, Xing Lun has been traveling for many years and is in good health. Song Jin is not so good. After marrying Qin Chi, she had been pampered for a long time, and her health was not as good as when she was doing business outside. She was really tired now, and her abdomen ached even more. If it weren''t for the support of her willpower, she would have collapsed long ago, but the situation did not allow her to be weak. The two children still need her protection. However, Song Jin''s discomfort did not show. Therefore, even Xing Lun did not see the problem. "My boss and the children will rest here while I go to the mountains to find water and some food." Xing Lun suggested. Song Jin nodded. Xing Lun was under a big tree, cleaning up the area in front of the tree''s roots, and then found some clean leaves to spread on top, allowing Song Jin and the child to rest here temporarily. Song Jin hugged and sat down obediently. Niuniu also sat close to her mother. When Xing Lun walked away, Song Jin looked down at her sleeping son, and then at Niu Niu who was sitting next to her. She stretched out her other hand and touched her daughter''s little head. The little girl raised her little face and called her mother sweetly. If her cheeks hadn''t been dirty, the two buns on her head were a bit messy, and her lips were dry and peeling, Song Jin might not have realized that her daughter was so sensible that people felt sorry for her. "My Niuniu is so good." Song Jin hugged the child tightly. The children already knew that someone was chasing them. They were clearly thirsty and hungry, but they never complained. Song Jin''s tears were wet, "Mom is not a good mother, and she cannot give you a stable life." "It''s not my mother''s fault, it''s those people who are bad." Niu Niu held her little boxer and said angrily, with a fierce look on her face, "When I grow up, I will kill them all. I want to protect my mother." "Okay, mother, wait for Niuniu to protect you." Song Jin''s heart softened and she followed the child''s words. Niu Niu seemed to have received some big task, and nodded her head seriously, "I will protect my mother and my brother." In fact, Song Jin''s current appearance is not much better than Niu Niu''s, and he is also in a mess. Perhaps among the four, the only one who is clean is Guaiguai who is always held in his arms. Xing Lun came back quickly. I packed some wild fruits in big leaves and pulled two water-bearing vines back. He used a dagger to cut out a section of the cane, and water immediately flowed out of the cut. "Master, you must be thirsty, please drink some water first." "Have you drunk it?" Song Jin took it and asked. Xing Lun smiled and said, "I drank it and brought it back to you specially." Then he cut another piece and patiently fed it to Niu Niu. Niu Niu took a sip, raised her face and said, "Thank you, Uncle Xing." Xing Lun has been with the little girl almost every day these days. It has to be said that although the child is small, she is very sensible and rare. He regretted that this was not his daughter. Song Jingang wanted to take a sip of water when he found that the little son in his arms had woken up, so he first handed the end of the vine to the little guy''s mouth, and saw his little mouth squeaking happily. Wait until the little guy stops drinking. Please...you...Collect_69Book(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!) Xing Lun got another section of water-containing vine and handed it to Song Jin. Only then did Song Jin drink water. My dry throat felt much better after being moistened with water. Then he ate two more wild fruits. Not long after, the wild fruits Xing Lun had retrieved were shared among the three women. While they were eating, Xing Lun walked around again and came back. "Master, we need to find a place to stay before it gets dark. It''s not safe to spend the night in the mountains." It was a fluke that nothing happened last night. Xing Lun couldn''t guarantee that everything would be fine tonight, "There are also a lot of mosquitoes, rats, and ants in the mountains, which is unbearable for adults, let alone two children." Song Jin took a deep breath, "Do you think those who are chasing us will give up if they can''t find us?" "It''s only been a day, I won''t give up so soon." Xing Lun knew that it was risky to appear in front of people at this time, but he looked at the two children hesitantly, "But it is also dangerous in the mountains. If everything goes well like last night, and bigger beasts appear, I may not be able to protect you." " Xing Lun still knows himself. In terms of force, he is not good at it. Not to mention tigers and bears, he can''t even kill a wolf, not to mention that wolves still live in groups. They heard wolves howling last night, which meant that there were at least wolves in the mountains. It''s easy to get lost in the mountains. They had no choice but to hide in the mountains. Fortunately, they knew some ways of identifying things in the mountains, so they would not lose their way. For example, the side with the densest leaves of a big tree is to the south. Song Jin looked hesitant, unable to make a decision at the moment. Xing Lun added: "I don''t mean that I want to go down to the town, but I want to find out if there are any residents in the mountains. Like our place in Huizhou, there may be villages in the mountains." There may be mountain people living in the mountains. It''s okay to meet kind people, but it will be very troublesome if you meet unreasonable people. In fact, if given the choice, Xing Lun is not willing to contact the mountain people, but the current situation is that the situation outside the mountain is more dangerous than contacting the mountain people. Wei Yuan and others lured away the killer, and life or death was uncertain. Either stay for a while and wait for the killer to find them, then give up, or wait for Lou Ruhan to bring someone to rescue them. Since then, Song Jin and Qin Chi have reconciled. When encountering pursuits, I will no longer contact Shun''an Trading Company. It''s not that Xing Lun and Song Jin didn''t think about contacting each other at the beginning. None of the people sent to contact them came back. Instead, the killer appeared. It could be said to be a coincidence once, but it was like this twice. Song Jin and Xing No matter how slow Lun is, he knows something is wrong. The two simply stopped contacting the firm. Chapter 424 Trapped in the mountains Chapter 424 Trapped in the Mountains Xing Lun and Song Jin did not go south. In the direction of Huizhou, there will probably be a killer waiting for them. Therefore, Xing Lun took the three mothers and walked west-south. Perhaps it was God''s blessing that before the sun set, they actually found a family living in the mountains. A small village with only a dozen households. Most of them make a living by hunting, with only a few cultivated farmland. Xing Lun observed outside and saw children and old people in the village, so he asked Song Jin to wait in the woods with the children while he went to inquire about the situation first. After confirming that there were no problems in the village, Xing Lun even agreed to stay with a family before going to pick them up. "Niuniu, you have to call me daddy in front of others, remember?" Xing Lun picked up Niuniu and whispered. Niuniu nodded seriously. In the early days, when I went to an inn to stay, I would also travel disguised as a family. Song Jin naturally heard it from the side. Xing Lun smiled and said calmly: "I told the villagers that we were a family visiting relatives, but we were lucky enough to encounter a robber. Our bags were robbed. When we ran away, we went into the mountains and lost our way. It was only with good luck that we met the village. I need to stay for a few days. Song Jin now looks haggard. Xing Lun originally wanted Song Jin to put on a pretense, but now it seems that there is no need to do so, but he pointed to his face again, "What else can my boss use to wipe his cheeks to hide his appearance?" The luggage was lost during the escape. I cant put on makeup to look like I used to. Song Jin glanced at Niu Niu''s little cheek. He reached out and touched the soil on the ground, and then wiped it on his face a few times. No matter how beautiful the woman was, if her face was covered in mud, she would be nowhere to be seen. Whats more, she was not wearing a gorgeous dress, she was just wearing ordinary clothes. Common people''s women''s clothes. The farmhouse where Xing Lun struck up a conversation. It''s because there are old people and children in this family. The old man looks kind-hearted, the children are very lively, the woman is neither fat nor thin, and her clothes are patched but neat and clean. Generally speaking, such families are usually diligent and kind-hearted. He has been walking outside for many years, and he still knows a lot about people. Just as Xing Lun thought. This family is indeed very kind. They listened to Xing Lunyi''s arrangement and squeezed an empty house out for them. Wait for Song Jin and the child to enter the house. Xing Lun went out for a trip. When I came back, I carried a big baggage with clothes for adults and children. The clothes had been worn by others, but they were clean and smelled like the sun. Then Xing Lun asked the aunt of the family to boil a large pot of hot water and brought it to the house. Xing Lun checked the room carefully. He stayed outside the door until no problem was found. About a quarter of an hour passed. "Brother, it''s time to eat." An old farm lady came out of the kitchen and asked. Xing Lun said with a smile: "My mother is giving the two babies a bath. The child is very naughty and refuses to cooperate. I''m afraid there will be trouble. My eldest wife will eat first and leave some for us." "Okay, I''ll leave some food for you." "Thank you, aunt. You are kindhearted." Xing Lun looked like an honest person and happily chatted with aunt. I didn''t see anyone walking towards Chuangbei. Xing Lun can even talk about the mountains. Song Jin wiped her body and put on a clean linen dress. Naturally, she heard the conversation between Xing Lun and the aunt outside, and she even guessed that they were probably eating. Niu Niu lay on the bed after taking a shower, her little head dozing off little by little. The younger son was playing with his little feet. Song Jin simply **** her hair, walked to the door, and opened the door from the inside. Xing Lun, who was guarding the door, knew immediately. Song Jin''s face was washed clean. Even so, he still looked haggard and slightly pale. Xing Lun asked worriedly: "You don''t look good. Do you want me to ask someone to find a doctor in the town to come and take a look at you?" "No, I''m probably tired. Just take a rest first." Song Jin didn''t want to get into trouble. Xing Lun said again: "I''ll go to the kitchen and bring the food. You and the child can eat and rest early." "Okay, please." Song Jin sincerely thanked him. Xing Lun went into the house and took out the dirty water. To be honest, Song Jin felt a little complicated when she saw Xing Lun carrying the bath water out. When a person''s life is about to be in danger, there is nothing to avoid. After eating in the house. Niuniu went to bed and fell asleep. Song Jin lay on her side to coax her son to sleep, but the little guy didn''t fall asleep, so she fell asleep first. I didn''t sleep a wink all day and night. People are really tired. When the little guy was about to cry, Xing Lun picked him up and took him outside to the yard to comfort him. In short, the children were not allowed to disturb Song Jin while he was resting. Please...you...Collect_69Book(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!) Wait until the child is put to sleep before returning him to the house. The night passed peacefully. Xing Lun did not stay in the house. After everyone fell asleep, he came out of the house, closed the door, sat alone on the threshold, leaned against the door frame and closed his eyes to sleep. I have to be in the same room in front of others. When there were no outsiders, Xing Lun could still avoid it, so as not to spread the news in the future and harm Song Jin''s reputation. Early the next morning, Song Jin woke up. There was no one in the house, not even the two children. When he stepped out of the house, he saw Xing Lun in the yard, holding the little guy in one hand and feeding him rice cereal. Niu Niu was sitting on a small stool, holding a small bowl and eating by herself, not to mention how well-behaved she was. There were two children sitting nearby eating. When Song Jin came out, Xing Lun noticed it and said with a gentle smile: "Madam, are you awake? Madam left some food for you in the kitchen. I will get it for you later." "Hey, is this your wife? She is really pretty. I have never seen such a handsome little daughter-in-law in my life." The old woman was feeding chickens in the yard. She first talked to Xing Lun, and then teased Song Jin in local dialect, "Young lady, you marry well. A man loves his wife. I have been married for decades, and I have never seen my wife help me." I had a baby once. Song Jin couldn''t understand the local dialect. I can only pretend to be shy and pass it off with a smile. Xing Lun accepted the old woman''s words. Making the old man giggle. Then, the old woman squeezed the old man who was knitting a backpack on the side, and the old man smiled honestly. Song Jin went over to pick up the little guy. Xing Lun whispered: "I''m offended, my boss." "It''s okay, I''m just sorry for your trouble." Song Jin didn''t know whether she and her children could avoid this disaster, so there was nothing to worry about. On the contrary, she had implicated Xing Lun this time, "Alun, if necessary, you can escape first. "Don''t mention this again." Xing Lun said with a serious face, "I will never abandon you." Not even to death! After Xing Lun finished speaking, he asked Song Jin to continue feeding the little guy rice cereal, and he went to the kitchen to get Song Jin food. While Song Jin was eating, Xing Lun told her what he had learned. The village is very remote in the mountains. The mountain road has eighteen bends, and you can only walk on your legs. You can''t get out without an acquaintance to guide you. Moreover, it is very troublesome to go to the town. Usually I have to go today and come back tomorrow, which means it takes two days to go back and forth. Chapter 425 disaster Chapter 425 Trouble Xing Lun came to the village on the pretext of getting lost and rested for the night. Naturally, he wanted to do something consistent with his fabricated identity. He and the male host of the house he was staying in asked about the situation of the town closest to the village and which state and county it belonged to. How to get out of the mountain and so on. Stay in the village for two days. No problem was found in the village. Xing Lun asked Song Jin to inquire about the news. Small villages in the mountains are safe and free from external disturbances, but they are also closed to information. "Is there any problem if you and your children stay in the village?" Xing Lun''s only worry is their safety. Song Jin smiled and said: "After three days of nursing, my health has improved a lot. On the other hand, when you go out, the second most important thing is to inquire about the news. The most important thing is your own safety." Xing Lun nodded with a smile. Turned around and left the house. In the yard, Niu Niu was playing with the owner''s children. When Xing Lun went out, Niu Niu sweetly called Daddy, making him happily pick her up and lift her up high, making the little girl laugh happily. When it comes to big hearts, the only ones who have big hearts are children. It was peaceful for two or three days. I forgot about my previous escape! They also forgot about their real father and called Xing Lun their fake father without any pressure. Because of this, no one in this farmer''s family doubted that they were not a family of four. Song Jin put the dirty clothes he had changed into a bamboo basket. "Niuniu, my brother is asleep, please remember to take care of me. Mother, go wash the clothes and you will come back after washing." Song Jin reminded the little girl. Niuniu nodded obediently, "Okay, mother." "Don''t worry, sister-in-law, I will also help Niuniu take care of my brother." The person who spoke was the eldest girl of the family. The twelve or thirteen-year-old girl was very sensible. Song Jin smiled gratefully at her and said, "I''m sorry to bother you, young lady." Song Jin still didn''t quite understand the little girl''s local accent, but he could guess the general meaning from her expression and her words. Use an old piece of cloth as a face towel when you go out. Covering most of his face. Not far from the village, you can see a rocky stream. The stream flows down from the mountain, and the water quality is clear. The water used by people in the village comes from this stone stream. Come to the stream. I saw a woman washing clothes. Song Jin found a suitable place. "My dear lady, which family are you from?" a woman next to her asked Song Jin. Song Jin looked at the other party and smiled. It''s not that she doesn''t answer, it''s that she doesn''t speak the local dialect. She began to wash the clothes. Seeing that she didn''t answer. The woman didn''t ask any more questions and started chatting with the person next to her. Even without looking over, Song Jin knew that the conversation was probably about her. The clothes were just half washed. Song Jin accidentally saw a figure appearing in the forest in the distance. The person''s clothes were no different from the killer who was chasing them, and he couldn''t help but feel shocked. When the other party looks here. Song Jin lowered her head subconsciously and continued washing the clothes in her hands, but she speeded up the washing process. She even rubbed it a few times and didn''t care whether it was washed or not. Wring the clothes dry and put them back in the bamboo basket. He picked it up and walked to the farmhouse where he was staying temporarily. After she left, the woman washing clothes by the stream no longer had any scruples. A woman said: "The direction she walked is from Zhou Shu''s family. I am the only distant relative from his family in the village." "You talk to people and ignore them. Hey, you''re looking down on us." "She smiled at me, and I felt she was being thin-skinned." Song Jin''s side is not so good. As I approached the courtyard where I was staying temporarily, I saw the old village chief and two big men walking towards me from a distance. Song Jin''s heart skipped a beat. A pair of children were still there, and she could not avoid them, so she hurriedly carried the bamboo basket with clothes into the yard. Seeing Niuniu playing with her child in the yard, she hurriedly put the child into the house and asked the child to lock the door from the inside. She whispered: "Don''t open the door if anyone calls. Does Niuniu know?" Niuniu responded inside. Then Song Jin went to remind the old woman again. Through the fence, you could see that the village chief and his people were almost here. Song Jin calmly picked up the clothes on the bamboo basket and walked to the bamboo clothes-drying pole in the yard, intending to dry the clothes as if nothing had happened. These clothes were worn by ordinary people. Song Jin was not afraid that others would see the problem, but it would be more suspicious if he hid. Xing Lun told the family that they had encountered a disaster and had lost their way and came here to stay for a few days. However, in order not to attract the attention of the villagers, he gave them two taels of silver and asked them to tell the outside world that they were relatives and that they were his nephew from his mother''s family who came here with his wife and children. Visiting relatives, because the journey is far away and I havent seen them for more than ten years, I have to stay here for some time. "Village chief? Why are you here?" The old woman walked to the fence gate to greet her. The village chief said: "I heard that you have relatives coming to your home?" "Yes, my nephew came to see me with his wife and children. I haven''t seen him in almost twenty years, so it''s rare." The old woman said cheerfully. While talking, the old woman looked at the two men behind the village chief. The village chief asked again: "Is it her?" When saying this, the village chief also pointed at Song Jin who was hanging clothes to dry. When someone asked about him, Song Jin pretended not to hear. He was skilled in drying clothes and worked very quickly. Like a farm wife who is used to doing hard work. The two men dispelled some of their doubts. You must know that the person they are chasing is a noble person in the capital, an official wife who has no fingers in the spring water. Before Song Jin got married, he was rich and raised a daughter. When he was in trouble, he married into the countryside and was served by servants in Qinjiagou. One of the men pointed at Song Jin and said, "Tell her to come over and take off the hijab." The old woman frowned and said, "That''s not good. How can a woman like this be casually looked at by a strange man?" I saw the man pull out half of the blade and said, "Let her come over!" Song Jin seemed to be shocked, and the clothes in his hands fell off. Before Song Jin could pass by, a man walked over directly, stretched out his hand and pulled off the face towel. When he saw Song Jin''s face, the man was stunned for a moment. For a moment, he seemed to see a fairy. Song Jin backed away as if scared. Unexpectedly, the man handed the scarf back to Song Jin, spoke in a much softer voice, and said with a strange expression: "I''m sorry for disturbing the little lady." Song Jin pulled off the face towel and trotted to lie down in the kitchen. Under unknown circumstances, one goes to the kitchen to cover others'' eyes and ears, and the other is because there are knives in the kitchen. This book was recently updated in ##@@@@@@!! Updated! Another big man also saw Song Jin''s face. He took the portrait out of his pocket. The portrait is distorted and does not depict the real person. There is a description of Song Jin''s appearance. The face is ordinary, the complexion is yellowish, the eyebrows are slightly thick, and there are many freckles on the cheeks. Rumor has it that Song Jin''s appearance is average to average. Even at the banquet later, some people said that her appearance looked a little more delicate after putting on makeup. But that was just because she was wearing makeup, and it would not really make people think she is more beautiful. And this daughter-in-law looks like a fairy. The most important thing is that a woman like this should not be unknown, especially when she was in the capital, many people had seen Qin Chi''s wife, but no one had ever said that she was extremely beautiful. Song Jin''s current appearance is different from the rumored Qin Chi''s wife. There were rumors in Huizhou a few years ago that Qin Chi''s wife was extremely beautiful. However, many people later saw Song Jin with their own eyes, and her appearance was just average. The rumors of extreme beauty gradually disappeared. Therefore, when Yan Jiangnan sent people to investigate, Song Jin''s appearance is very ordinary. These two men are not from Huizhou. The information obtained is also given above. A man asked: "Madam, where is your nephew?" "Hey, I went to town with my son this morning." The old woman spoke with a strong accent. It was only after the old village chief said it again in Nanjing Mandarin that the two men understood. The two men looked at each other. Put away the portrait. When leaving, he turned back three times and looked towards the kitchen with frivolous and lustful eyes. Wait until the village chief is sent away. The two left the village and were going to join their companions. One of the men chuckled and said, "What a beauty. You don''t see her very often outside. I have never seen her in thirty years of my life." The other man stopped pretending and answered maliciously: "I''ll tell you later that there are no suspicious outsiders in the village, but we are afraid that something will be missed, so we voluntarily stay nearby and search again, and let the brothers go back first." Rest. "That''s right! You still have more tricks up your sleeve, hehe." The two of them had a tacit understanding. That night, at nightfall. Song Jin didn''t dare to go to bed early. After putting the two children to sleep, he blew out the oil lamp. I am neatly dressed, with a sleeve arrow tied to my left arm, and a blow arrow in my right hand. Fukiya is a hidden weapon that looks like a bamboo flute and contains poisonous needles inside. When used, Fukiya shoots poisonous needles by blowing air. The poisonous needles are coated with highly toxic drugs and will be fatal in a short time after being shot. He was hunted down earlier and almost ran out of life-saving items. These are the only two things left. There is only one poisonous needle left. There is only one sleeve arrow left. If there were no mistakes, only two people could be killed. She didn''t recognize Song Jin on the spot today, so it stands to reason that there would be no trouble for the time being, but the look in their eyes as they left made her very uncomfortable. This is the downside of revealing your true face. There are so many cowardly people. Just as my father warned me when I was young, overly outstanding appearance is not a good thing, and it is not a lie since ancient times that beauties have bad luck. Sit quietly until the end of Xu Shi. There was movement in the yard. Song Jin stood up quickly and revealed that when he looked out from the crack of the door, he could clearly see two sneaky figures appearing outside the fence through the moonlight, with weapons in their hands. Fences and gates cannot stop the other party. The two of them opened the door easily and entered the yard quietly. It was the two men who came during the day. Since the two men wanted to steal the fragrance, they found out the room where Song Jin lived during the day and approached it one after the other. The man walking behind said dissatisfiedly: "Is it necessary to be so careful? It doesn''t matter if they are discovered, the worst is to kill them all." "The superiors found out that instead of doing business, we found excuses to go hunting for wild food. You don''t want to live anymore, and I don''t want to die." The man in front warned in a low voice. After saying this, he quietly approached the door of the house where Song Jin was located, took out a dagger, inserted it into the crack of the door, and then pried open the door bolt bit by bit. Song Jin stood in front of the door and watched. Until the door bolt was about to be opened, she turned sideways to avoid the shadow, waiting for the push to slowly push it open. A tall figure bowed and slipped into the room. Chapter 426 Destroy corpses and destroy traces Chapter 426 Destroy the corpse and eliminate traces The moonlight filtered through the crack in the door. Song Jin stood behind the opponent, put Fukiya to his mouth, and blew hard. A poisonous needle pierced the big man''s neck. The big man felt as if his neck had been stung by something. He was about to reach out and touch the needle. As soon as he touched the needle in his neck, he began to feel dizzy. Then there was a dull sound and the sound of a heavy object hitting the ground. In fact, The big man was poisoned and fell to the ground. The other big man at the door was startled. Song Jin seized the opportunity and opened the door. Before the other party could react, he suddenly appeared, raised his left arm, and shot a sleeve arrow at the people outside. Such a close distance! Its hard to avoid! But the big man has been wallowing in the knife edge for many years. It''s almost instinctive to avoid it. The sleeve arrow that was supposed to hit the opponent''s throat missed the target and just grazed the opponent''s neck, leaving a large gash, but it was not considered a fatal injury. Song Jin picked up the big knife belonging to the thief in the room. Without any hesitation, he rushed out with his knife and stabbed the big man in the chest, but... "Bitch! Looking for death!" In the Han Dynasty, the instinct to fight was to use the sword to attack Song Jin. Song Jin''s action was inherently risky, risking his life. Its just that the other party is very skilled. Even if he was stabbed, Song Jin, a woman, could not avoid a dying counterattack. When he saw the opponent raising the knife fiercely, Song Jin took off the hilt of the knife in his hand and instinctively stepped back. After all, it was a step too late, and his left shoulder Cut by the tip of a knife. A sharp pain shot through his shoulder. At the same time, this knife also caused Song Jin to fall to the ground. Just when she thought her life was about to end, the thief holding the murder weapon suddenly twitched and fell to the ground, and stopped moving without struggling. At this time, the door to the house where the old man lived opened. An old man held a lamp in his hand and looked outside to shine. The summer moonlight was enough to clearly illuminate the situation outside. When he saw the person lying on the ground and Song Jin standing in front of the house, the old man''s face changed in shock. He came over quickly and said, "Little lady, what is this?" Song Jin covered the stab wound on his shoulder with his hand. The old man probably remembered that she didn''t understand, so he quickly changed to the common language that he was not familiar with outside and said it again. "Two thieves sneaked in." Song Jin answered while holding back the pain. The old man asked in surprise: "Two?!" songs Disaster." The old man thought of something and was so frightened that his feet became weak and the lamp in his hand was a little unsteady. Song Jin quickly stated his plan. It''s nothing more than destroying corpses and destroying traces. This is a deep mountain, why did you throw the body away! The old man knew better than Song Jin that it would not be easy to find where to throw it. At the same time, she promised not to implicate his family. It wasn''t that Song Jin had to trouble the old man, it was that she wanted to bury the body without anyone noticing, and she might not be able to finish it until dawn. The most important thing was that she was far less familiar with the surrounding environment than the locals. The old man agreed without hesitation. At the same time, he also called his wife out. The old woman told her daughter-in-law, who was also awakened, to take care of the child and told her not to leave the house. Song Jin went to pick up the short arrow, and pulled out the poisonous needle from the neck of the deceased in the room, preparing to use it again. The old man dragged the body out. According to Song Jin''s instructions, he first used mud to plug the wounds of the corpse to avoid blood stains on the road when the corpse was transported. Then he took out two big troubles that usually caused the prey to be loaded and loaded the corpse. At the same time, Song Jin asked: "Do you have any medicine at home?" "Yes! Yes, my son is often injured when hunting. I have hemostatic medicine at home, as well as some medicine kits for reducing high fever." The old man replied in a panic. The old woman went back to her room to take out the medicine. Song Jin easily stopped the bleeding and bandaged the injury. It was difficult to bandage the injured shoulder by myself, so the old woman helped to do it, but her hands kept shaking. Song Jin knew that the other party was scared, but it was hard to say anything. What happened tonight was almost as big as the sky falling for ordinary people. After the bandage was finished, Song Jin asked the old woman to leave the wound medicine and go out. She looked back at the two children on the bed, who were sleeping soundly. "Two napping cats." Song Jin smiled fondly, then took out his sleeve arrows and blowing arrows, put the arrows and poisonous needles back in, and then endured the pain and walked out. On the surface, he seemed not to know the pain. Two old men moved the body onto a cart. I saw Song Jin coming out. Read the error-free version at 69Book! 69 Shuyiba publishes a novel for the first time. Read at Liujiu Book Bar The old man took out the things from the two thieves and said in a trembling voice: "Little lady, here are the things from the thieves. There are two big knives and daggers, as well as banknotes and broken silver. There are three hundred and twenty-four in total." two." "Keep the money and banknotes, and don''t spend them for a short period of time. If you really need to spend them, avoid people. Don''t let people see that your family has made a fortune and arouse people''s suspicion." Song Jin took the trouble to give the old man a few more words of advice, "Don''t keep broadswords and daggers. These weapons are marked. If you use them and someone suddenly comes to your door, it will bring trouble to your family." "Yes, yes, old man, I know." After living for more than half of his life, the old man still knows how to behave appropriately. Song Jin asked the old woman to take care of the children in the house, and then cleaned up the blood on the ground inside and outside the house. He also warned: "Auntie, for the safety of your family, be sure to remove the blood carefully and don''t leave any blood behind." Any trace." "I understand, I have rushed through the blood of wild boars." Someone at home is hunting, and the yard is often bloody. The old woman is really good at washing away blood stains. Seeing that there was no problem, Song Jin wrapped up the sword and dagger. Together with the old man, he pushed the body out of the village. The move was not easy for the two of them. After much effort, the two moved the body to the top of a mountain. The old man said that he had a place where he could quickly destroy the body and eliminate traces of it. After that, the old man carried a body on his back and walked forward. Song Jin followed him and saw with his own eyes that he threw the body into a crack in the mountain. He didn''t know how deep the crack was, but when he stood on it and looked inside, it was pitch black and bottomless. The body was thrown in and disappeared. Soon, another body was thrown in. Song Jin also threw the knife and dagger into the crack. On the way back, try to erase the traces as much as possible. The old man whispered: "Wait, I will do it again during the day, and if there are any traces, I will erase them." "Good work." Before dawn, we returned to the village without any danger. The old man pushed the cart into the rocky stream and jumped into the water to wash away any blood that might be on the cart, as well as on himself. I washed it back and forth several times to make sure there was no blood on it. Then I pushed the car home. Song Jin is not worried about this guy betraying him. After all, they participated in the destruction of the corpse, and all the money collected belongs to them. With such a large amount of money in front of them, if someone really came to find them, they would not dare to say anything. However, it is not suitable to stay in the village for a long time. But the killer who was searching for them was still outside, and they didn''t dare to risk leaving for a while. There was something else that made her heart heavy. It was the killer who found this place, which means that Wei Yuan and others may be in danger. Chapter 427 lead away Chapter 427: Divert away Song Jin stared at her children who were still sleeping soundly on the bed. After a while, she got up and left the house. The old man was sitting in the yard. As soon as he saw Song Jin coming out, he stood up immediately. Compared with his earlier casualness, he was now much more reserved. In his little experience, he finally understood that the young lady in front of him was Not ordinary people. Ordinary people don''t know **** people anymore, and they can still be so calm. Song Jin said: "I want to leave the village and lure those people away, so I decided to go south. Please show me the route. When my husband comes back, there is no need to hide what happened tonight. He will know what he did. Also, Our children will be left in your care." After saying this, she bent down and saluted the old man. The old man was frightened and said, "It doesn''t have to be like this, it doesn''t have to be like this." Song Jin said that she would not cause trouble to his family and the village, and the best way was for her to divert the other party''s attention. Next, the old man told Song Jin about the situation on the southern mountain. "The environment in Nanshan is relatively safe. There are only some pheasants and rabbits where villagers often collect firewood. No large prey has been found in several years." The old man gave Song Jin the remaining wound medicine at home. After thinking for a while, he took out a hunting bow and arrow from the house, "Keep this bow and arrow with you for self-defense." There are ten long arrows in total. It is the only arrow left in this family. Song Jin said thank you again. Put the wound medicine into the backpack, pick up the bow and arrow and walk out of the fence. "Little lady, wait a minute." The old woman in the room came out, took out an unlit torch, a fire stick, and a water bag, and handed them to Song Jin, "I will go into the mountains at night, these things will come in handy." Song Jin thanked him again. After all, there are more good people in this world. He glanced at the house where his son and daughter lived, then turned around and strode away, disappearing into the night soon. There are already people in the village who get up early. There was smoke rising from the kitchen and the sound of dogs barking. Song Jin quickly walked out of the village and walked towards the path of Nanshan. His body was covered by tall grass and shrubs. She also held a wooden stick in her hand, which she used to knock on the grass from time to time. It could also be used as a crutch. From last night to now. Song Jin never rested. Her spirit was actually quite tired. However, her spirit had been tense after the murder. She did not dare to relax for a moment until the danger was over. Before daybreak, Song Jin finally climbed over the mountain. Sitting on a stone exhausted. Take out the water bag, open the stopper, raise your head and drink the remaining water. When she regained her breath, she touched her lower abdomen again. She had rested for three days and there was no pain in her lower abdomen. This time it started to hurt again. There was also a wound on my shoulder, and the pain never subsided. But she didn''t care about this and continued walking to the foot of the mountain. Instead of taking the trail, she took a new path and erased her previous traces. In an open mud field, clear a circle of hay around it and dig a small pit in the middle. Throw the weeds into the hole. Whether they were dry or not, there were also some leaves and branches that were not very dry, and they were all thrown in. When the pile is almost complete, light it with a fire stick. Wait for the black smoke to gradually rise. Song Jin left many traces around, and then, as if inadvertently, he left another clue, which was the footprints on the grass heading south. And her people were sure to continue walking south. Early in the morning, in a cave on a certain mountain. There are more than a dozen killers gathered here. Someone asked, "It''s dawn, where are Xiang Wu and Liu San?" "Who knows, they said they were going to check the place they searched yesterday carefully." The person who answered was weird and laughed, "I doubt it. They found the treasure and wanted to keep it to themselves, so they left us alone. "Why don''t you follow me if I doubt it?" "Who wants to go there at night? You''ve been feeding mosquitoes for a few days and you''re not tired yet?" The boss in charge woke up and asked these people to continue searching. "Someone go look for them..." Just when he wanted to arrange for the two of them to go find Liu San and Xiang Wu, a plume of black smoke appeared in the sky to the south. He asked coldly: "Is there a village over there?" "To tell the boss, no." A thin man answered, and then guessed, "Could it be that Liu San and the others have found the target and sent us a signal? Orions will not light a fire in the mountains, let alone one that emits black smoke." The man immediately decided, "Go over and check!" The group of people quickly walked towards the south. The people following were somewhat reluctant. This book was recently updated in ##@@@@@@!! Updated! Compared with Song Jin who did not receive news during her escape, those who pursued her were much better informed than her. Before entering the mountain, they knew that the rebels in the capital had failed to attack the city, Mr. Yan was dead, and the master was captured. . However, this fatwa was issued by the Lord himself. There is no room for them to give up halfway. The recent situation has been very unfavorable to them. The officers and soldiers have been going crazy, arresting anyone they see wearing a mask without asking why, forcing them to throw away the mask. Someone walking at the back whispered: "Could Liu San and Xiang Wu have escaped?" "Isn''t it necessary?" Another person said softly. "Mr. Yan is dead and the master has been captured. Do you still expect the Liu family to succeed?" After a pause, the man said angrily: "According to me, you should go to the capital to save your lord. What''s the point of chasing a woman and a child? If a man wants to die, he will die on the battlefield." "Do you think you are a person?" the man laughed. Suddenly, the chat between the two stopped abruptly. Their boss was holding the hilt of the knife and looking at the two people who were lagging behind with a sinister look. The two were so frightened that they suddenly broke into a cold sweat and quickly quickened their pace. A group of people rushed to the scene. All he saw was a pile of burning ashes. After taking another look at the messy scene, the erased footprints had obviously been swept but not completely swept away. More than a dozen people began to search for traces and found that the person was heading south. "Chase!" More than a dozen people chased south. Song Jin, who was walking south, was in a bad situation at this time. As she was leaving, she found that her lower abdomen was hurting more and more. It was so painful that the hair on her temples was wet, as if something was leaking out. Only then did she remember something. This month, she didn''t have her period. Song Jin covered her lower abdomen, leaned against the big tree, and panted slightly. She had realized that in her case, she was probably pregnant. It was just that the month was shallow and the fetus could not sit still. At this time, her whole body was numb. However, there was no room for her to be immersed in pain and sadness at this moment. Song Jin calmed down and continued to move forward. Deep into the dense forest to the south. It took half an hour for the pursuers behind to catch up to where Song Jin was sitting, and saw the dried blood under the roots of the tree. "Hey, the other party is injured?" The person who discovered it reached out and touched the blood stains, and he could identify one thing based on the traces, "Just one person?" The only person running away is the injured. Chapter 428 dangerous situation Chapter 428 Danger Song Jin continued to move forward. It was because the old man told her that there was a small river ahead and the river was relatively fast. His son hid a bamboo raft there and usually went hunting on the opposite hill. Before the pursuer comes. Song Jin found a bamboo raft and a bamboo pole, successfully crossed to the other side of the river, dragged the bamboo raft ashore, took a water bag to the river to fill with water, and when he squatted down, he accidentally caught a glimpse of the figure chasing after him on the other side of the bank. Turn around and grab the bow and arrow on the ground. Song Jin quickly got into the stone forest. Then, using the cover of the stone forest, we secretly observed the opposite river bank. The dozen or so people who were chasing him were unable to cross for a while because of the river, giving Song Jin a chance to breathe. She was exhausted and sat with her back against a stone. She felt pain in her lower abdomen and a thin layer of sweat formed on her forehead. There was also a stab wound on the shoulder. Due to the excessive movement of holding up the bamboo raft, the wound was involved, and blood was slowly oozing out. There was obviously some anti-bleeding medicine in the backpack. Now Song Jin didn''t have the strength to change the dressing. She could only take deep breaths to relieve the pain on her body. After her body regained some strength, she took out the hemostatic powder and smelled it. She found that it was powder made from Panax notoginseng, so she took out a small amount. Pour into mouth. Open the water bag again and swallow with water. After lying down and resting for a long time, she gradually felt better. Before Song Jin could take a breath, she heard a strange sound of water in the river, and she peeped through the cracks in the rocks. I noticed someone on the other side actually went into the water. Swim over from the opposite side. Judging from this situation, he came here for the bamboo rafts here. What swam over was a tall, thin man, shirtless and with wet hair. When the man turned to say hello to the other side, a poisonous needle as thin as an ox''s hair pierced the man''s back. At first the man thought it was an insect bite. He even subconsciously reached out and scratched his back. When Song Jin saw that the thief did not fall down immediately, he knew that the poisonous needle had been used once. Pulling it out and using it again would reduce the toxin. It would be difficult to poison an adult to death at once. So Song Jin set up his bow and arrow again. The bow and arrow are not skillful to use, and it is hard to say how accurate it is, not to mention that the woman is not very strong. It is precisely for this reason that in order to ensure that the thief can be killed, she first uses the poison needle and then replenishes the arrow. Facts have proved that Song Jin''s decision was correct. The long arrow was originally aimed at the thief''s chest, but it only hit his left shoulder, which was not fatal! "Who is he? Hiding his head and showing his tail!" The man shouted warily. Soon, he looked fiercely at the stone forest where Song Jin was hiding. Song Jin set an arrow again. An arrow was shot out, but the thief dodged and strode towards Song Jin. An accident happened. When he was about to get close to Song Jin, he suddenly started bleeding from his orifices and fell to the ground dead. The people on the other side were shocked. The person died suddenly and shouted loudly before death. Was he attacked by someone? And there''s an ambush on the other side? "Boss, we are chasing the same person." Someone asked in confusion, "Didn''t you say someone was injured? Can he kill one of us?" No matter how much Song Jin tried to cover up along the way, he still leaked something. The boss stared at the fallen body on the other side of the bank, "The monkey was hit by an arrow just now, did you see clearly?" "It was a little sudden and I didn''t see it clearly." "I can see clearly. He was hit in the left shoulder. It should not have been fatal, but he suddenly fell to the ground." The river was seven to eight feet wide, and people with good eyesight could see clearly. The boss pointed at the four people. Then the four of them took off their heavy things, but unlike the man who took off his shirt earlier, he jumped into the river wearing simple clothes. If these people are rebels. Coming from the land of plenty in the south, its no surprise that hes good at water. Just now, only one person was arranged to swim over to get the bamboo raft. Perhaps it was because of a slight contempt for Song Jin, or perhaps because some of them were not good at swimming, or did not want to get their clothes wet. Song Jin tried his best to regain his strength. The four killers were swimming, and when they were almost halfway through the swim, Song Jin came out of the darkness with a bow and arrow. He went to the corpse first, pulled out the poisonous needles and long arrows, and used them again. Then he took away the dagger from the corpse. Soon. The man stood on top of a large rock on the shore. Standing high, draw the bow and aim. call out! One arrow will not kill! He set up his bow again and aimed it again. Just as a man was braving in the water, suddenly, a cold arrow hit him, and a scream was drowned in the water. After a while, blood floated to the surface. Song Jin set up his bow and arrow again. Human potential is unlimited, especially at a moment of life and death. Song Jin was originally physically injured, but at this time she almost forgot about her physical condition. He just wants to kill the other person! You can kill as many as you want, which can be regarded as a backstop. This book was recently updated in ##@@@@@@!! Updated! The people on the other side yelled, "You bitch! If you dare to kill my brother, just wait for me. I will cramp and skin you later..." These people were born bandits, how many of them are good? No matter how dirty you are, you can curse me. Song Jin seemed to have never heard of it. Across a river, no matter how angry the thieves were, they could do nothing to her. The only threat to her was the thieves who were about to swim ashore. The time and place were favorable, and Song and Jin all took advantage of them. As long as the thieves swim ashore, they will be hit by long arrows. Submerged underwater, it is hard to say whether he will live or die. Even if you die, you will be washed away by the current, not to mention the rapid rivers in the mountains. When Song Jin was holding the bamboo raft earlier, it was quite difficult. He didn''t come straight sideways, but diagonally down the stream from above, and then successfully landed on the shore. If the other party follows her footsteps and comes here. According to Song Jin''s guess, it was impossible to appear just on the other side of the river. It should be a hundred feet upstream. It can only be said that Song Jin was not very lucky. The traces were found by those who were being chased. The other party found this place based on the current situation, and happened to find the bamboo rafts on the shore. Suddenly, a figure jumped out of the water. Song Jin rushed straight to the shore. "Phew!" Song Jin shot out an arrow. But the opponent raised his dagger to block the long arrow, and cursed fiercely: "You stinky bitch, suffer death!" People killed Song Jin again. Song Jin raised his left hand and pressed the mechanism of the sleeve arrow. A short arrow whizzed, hitting the thief''s throat, and a piece of the thief fell from above with a pop. No matter how high you jump, so what? Just the right one! Perhaps this man never thought that he would die due to his underestimation and arrogance, and at the hands of a woman he looked down upon. Song Jin tried to draw his bow and arrow again, but it came up empty. Out of arrows! She slid down the boulder, went to the river, turned over the dead thief''s body, and took out the specially made short arrow. After inspection, she found that it could be used again. Three other thieves. It''s been so long and it hasn''t surfaced again. In all likelihood, he is dead! However, Song Jin did not dare to be careless. Immediately went ashore, put on the basket on his back, pushed the bamboo raft into the water with all his strength, then picked up the long bamboo pole and climbed onto the bamboo raft. Bamboo poles support the ground, allowing the bamboo rafts to gradually move away from the shore. Go down the river. Chapter 429 Escape Chapter 429 Escape Song Jin saw the thief on the other side running along the river. Like a bamboo raft trying to catch up with her. Some people even jumped into the water and swam towards the bamboo rafts. Song Jin was already prepared for this. He used bamboo poles to support it to prevent the bamboo raft from deviating, and then accelerated down. As long as you are fast enough, the opponent cannot catch up. Song Jin knew that he was in a bad state. If she didn''t use the bamboo raft to escape and just relied on her legs to walk, it could be said that she wouldn''t be able to support herself without the thief getting close. On the contrary, the water flow here is relatively fast, and it is dangerous to use bamboo rafts to go down, but it is better than staying in place and waiting to die. At least you can have a chance to survive. God may have favored Song Jin after all. The person chasing her on the shore was blocked by a cliff and could no longer pursue her. The person who jumped into the water first to chase Song Jin failed to catch up. Able to go ashore cursing. Song Jin slumped down on the bamboo raft helplessly. Let the water flow push the bamboo rafts. After resting for a while, she wanted to pick up the bamboo pole and stand up to support the bamboo raft. Suddenly, her vision went dark and she fainted on the bamboo raft. When Song Jin regained consciousness, he found himself lying in a simple earthen house. It''s already dark outside. An old oil lamp was lit in the house, and the light was very dim. "Hey, you''re awake?" The voice of a teenage girl. Song Jin''s head was dizzy. He tried to push himself up, but found that his whole body was weak and quickly fell back. He tried to open his mouth to speak, but his throat felt as if it was burning. I couldn''t speak for a while. The little girl spat: "No, no, don''t move. I''ve had a high fever for two days. It''s not easy to wake up. Also, how come you were so seriously injured and had a miscarriage, Lin The doctor said you are almost going to die." Then, the little girl brought another bowl of warm water. Carefully feed Song Jin to drink. With this water, my throat finally relaxed a little. "Thank you girl." Song Jin''s voice was hoarse and unclear. But the little girl understood and smiled shyly, "You''re welcome, you''re welcome, hehe." After saying that, she ran out. I went to inform the elders in the family that Song Jin had woken up. After a while, several women crowded into the originally small earthen house. They were the head of the family and her five daughters-in-law. Fortunately, they only came to take a look and were dismissed by the old lady. "How is your health, little lady? Are you feeling better?" The old woman asked with a smile on her face and concern. Song Jin said gratefully: "It''s much better, thank you auntie. In the future, I will definitely repay auntie for your life-saving grace." "What did you say, little lady? I don''t want anything in return." The old woman said this, but her smile was obviously much more sincere than before. Song Jin responded with a few words. It didn''t take long before I learned that the people in this village were named Sun. Aunt Sun''s house was not far from the river. When the children were playing by the river, they found Song Jin who had fainted on the bamboo raft. So she went to her house to call the adults and rescued Song Jin from the river. When Aunt Sun was changing Song Jin''s clothes, she discovered that the little daughter-in-law was in a worse condition. Not only was her shoulder injured, but she also seemed to have had a miscarriage, so she paid for Song Jin to see a doctor. Fortunately, the doctor is from the village. It doesn''t cost much to ask a doctor. Otherwise, if the Sun family wanted to save people, they wouldn''t have the money. Song Jin inquired about his current location. Just as he was thinking about how to contact Xing Lun and others, he heard movement coming from the house in the middle of the night, including the faint sound of horse hooves. "Tuk-tuk." There were two gentle knocks on the door. Song Jin woke up in a daze, "Who is it?" A tired and hoarse voice sounded outside, with a hint of excitement and surprise in a man''s voice, "Master? I''m Xing Lun, are you okay?" Song Jin finally let go of her worries. Xing Lun asked again: "Is it convenient for me to go in?" "Come in." Song Jin hesitated for a moment before replying. Not only did Song Jin live in the earthen house, but the little girl also lived in the house. At this time, the little girl was awakened and was rubbing her eyes sleepily. Song Jin saw that her clothes were neatly dressed, so she allowed Xing Lun to come in. Xing Lun opened the door and came in. Seeing Song Jin lying on the bed, with a haggard look and his eyes suddenly red, he came up and knelt in front of the bed, "I failed to protect my boss, and I am willing to accept the punishment." "This matter has nothing to do with you, so don''t blame yourself." Song Jin called Xing Lun up and asked about the child. Xing Lun said that the child was safe now, so Song Jin didn''t have to worry, "I brought the carriage here, does the owner want to leave?" "Leave, it''s not safe here." Song Jin didn''t know when the thief would find out. This book was recently updated in ##@@@@@@!! Updated! Xing Lun picked up Song Jinlian and the quilt and said softly: "I''m offended." Then walked outside. After leaving the house again, he entered a carriage. Lou Ruhan, who followed, thanked the Sun family and gave him a sum of money in private, promising that he would be rewarded heavily in the future. In fact, many people have had a hard time these three days. Xing Lun contacted Lou Ruhan and others and hurried back to the village in the mountains. When they learned that Song Jin almost had an accident and left in the middle of the night, he wished he could die to apologize, if there were not two young masters to take care of. Later, Xing Lun met a wealthy local businessman privately. Xing Lun has business dealings with the other party. Ask him to help find his lost wife. This wealthy businessman had several connections from all three religions and nine streams. He asked these people to inquire about him, and they found Song Jin. In fact, it''s not just Xing Lun who is looking for someone. People from Shun''an Trading Company were also secretly searching for Song Jin and the two young masters. As for why the business bank found out later, it started when one of them discovered that the business bank was being followed. The shopkeeper ordered people to arrest several people who were following him and torture him to extract confessions, only to find out that something happened to Song Jin. At that moment I was so scared that I almost lost my soul. He immediately sent everyone to look for Song Jin. A group of people ran into the killer in the mountains. After a confrontation for a while, they started fighting without saying anything. On the one hand, they recognized the dog thief from the rebels, and on the other hand, they discovered that it was the secret hand of Shunjia Trading Company. Wait for people from Shun''an Trading Company to find the Sun family. Song Jin has been picked up by Xing Lun and is missing. After tracing, they discovered the whereabouts of Lou Ruhan and others. They seemed to be looking for something and contacted the other party. Lou Ruhan did not tell the truth, only that they were also looking for someone. Song Jin and Xing Lun pretended to be husband and wife to escape the pursuit. They were supposed to arrive in Huizhou, but instead went to Anqing Prefecture and recuperated at a squire''s home in a town. The squire met Xing Lun during business. Xing Lun took his wife and children out for fun and did not want to expose his whereabouts. He specifically asked the squire to keep it secret and promised to compensate him for a big deal in the future. Xing Lun had a fleet and a good source of goods, and there was no shortage of merchants who wanted to join his line. Its just a small request, there is no reason why we shouldnt respond. When the squire learned that Xing Lun''s family members were unwell, he immediately asked his servants to bring the best medicinal materials from the house. Song Jin didn''t care at first. When I picked up these medicinal materials, I was extremely shocked and said in a trembling voice: "This is... medicinal materials of such good quality, did you sell them to him?" "no." Xing Lun stepped forward to check and checked very carefully, "My boss should have the answer in his mind. These medicinal materials are very new." Jifang has developed well in recent years. The quality of the medicinal materials is renowned. In fact, my family knows their own business, and the overall quality is not as good as the craftsmanship of the masters of Song''s Pharmacy in the past. Therefore, Jifangs medicinal materials are never named as Huizhou Songs medicinal materials. Because everyone knows in their hearts that what they sell is not authentic Songs medicinal materials. And this old craftsmanship actually appeared in the squire''s home? Chapter 430 Return to Huizhou Chapter 430 Return to Huizhou Song Jin looked at Xing Lun. Xing Lun understood and said, "I''m going to inquire about the source of the medicinal materials." After saying that, he stood up gracefully, bowed to Song Jin and left. Song Jin watched Xing Lun go out. While she was eager to know the source of the medicinal materials, she couldn''t help but think of the news that had been reaching her in recent days. Due to the distance problem, there would be a time lag before the news reached Song Jin. Most of them are about the capital. For example, the rebels invaded the palace, massacred the Palace of Supreme Harmony, and killed the prince and other royal relatives. Rumor has it that Qin Qi''an and others rescued him and quelled the turmoil in the city. The rebel leader was captured and committed suicide at a banquet in Jiangnan. In addition, there was news that shocked the Great Xia Dynasty. It was the death of Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty, and the throne of Zen was Prince Rui! The imperial edict has been sent to the northwest, and they are just waiting for Prince Rui to return to Beijing and ascend the throne. It is still unclear whether the various rumors are true or false, but Emperor Ming Cheng''s abdication is real, and the government offices in various states have posted notices to announce it to the world. The result of this fierce battle was that both the former prince and Emperor Mingcheng were injured. The rebels retreated to Zhangjiawan, and Prince Rui had to return to Beijing from the northwest to clean up the mess. This is a good thing for Song Jin. At least the group chasing them didn''t dare to be so blatant anymore. "Mother, are you feeling better?" Niu Niu came in holding a bouquet of freshly picked pink begonia flowers. Song Jin replied softly: "It''s much better. My daughter still feels sorry for me." "Huh, I know Niu Niu will be distressed, why don''t you get better soon." Niu Niu pouted her little mouth and blinked her big eyes, her pretending to be angry was very cute. Song Jin was amused all of a sudden. Niu Niu put aside her little head and came in seriously holding the begonia flowers. Went to the vase on the shelf. Remove the slightly withered flower branches, and carefully insert fresh crabapple flowers. The pink flowers are so delicate and beautiful, bringing a touch of life to the room and making people feel happy. Song Jin watched her daughter arrange flowers seriously. This time something happened to her, which scared her daughter, and now she is very sticky every day. The sound of a child crying next door was heard, and then a woman''s voice was heard coaxing the child. Song Jin said to Niu Niu: "Niu Niu, please go and ask your aunt to bring your brother to your mother." "Okay, mother." Niuniu put down the begonia flower in her hand and ran to the next door. A little while later. A young woman came in holding Guaiguai in her arms. This woman is a servant of the squire''s family. She has given birth to two children and is good at taking care of them. Song Jin is not in good health. The doctor said that he should not be overworked, so he temporarily asked the woman to take care of the children. Song Jin took over his son. After a while, the little guy stopped crying. Most of the day passed. In the evening, Xing Lun came back from outside. There was a trace of alcohol on his body, and he was obviously socializing with others. Send away those who are waiting in the house. Xing Lun told Song Jin about the result of the inquiry, "I asked Boss Pu about the medicinal materials, and he said that he bought them from a medicinal materials dealer after being introduced by an acquaintance." This squire''s surname is Pu. Xing Lun has already asked someone to investigate. "It will take a few days for the results to be available." "Okay, thank you for your hard work." No matter how anxious Song Jin was, she could only suppress it. Xing Lun talked about the situation outside again, "The government seems to be investigating suspicious persons, and household registration checks are very strict. It''s hard for us to go out now." "Are you investigating the rebels?" Song Jin suddenly grasped the key point. Xing Lun nodded, "There are rebel informants lurking in various states, and some are causing trouble everywhere. When I was drinking with Boss Pu, I heard him mention that the imperial court had just issued an official document, asking the prefects in various places to strictly investigate and do nothing. Officials will be punished for treason. Strong medicines are used to remove maladies, and heavy rules are used to treat chaos. Under normal circumstances, people with ulterior motives will not be willing to be locked up for interrogation, and will most likely resist when encountering officers and soldiers. Song Jin''s luggage was lost earlier, including things to prove his identity. Xing Lun does have a household registration. In order to hide their identities and avoid being hunted down, they spent a lot of money to buy the household registration of a family of four from local people, as well as the government-issued road guide for visiting relatives. They came to Anqing Prefecture using fake household registrations. Song Jin did not return to Huizhou, but switched to Anqing Mansion next door, not only for safety reasons, but also because her body really needed to rest. Although Qin Chi would send someone to protect her when she returned to Huizhou, Song Jin did not forget the fact that she and Qin Chi had reconciled and needed to avoid suspicion. "Boss, I received news from Lou Ruhan. They said they found our lost luggage, and..." Xing Lun raised his eyes and noticed Song Jin''s face. When Song Jin saw Xing Lun hesitate to speak, with a heavy look on his face, a bad feeling arose in his heart. Lou Ruhan and others stayed behind to find Wei Yuan and others. Looking at Xing Lun''s expression, one can tell that the situation is more serious than bad. Song Jin sadly asked, "Didn''t anyone escape?" Read the error-free version in 69Book! 69 Shuyiba publishes a novel for the first time. Read at Liujiu Book Bar "No" Xing Lun was also in a bad mood. Song Jinshang was recuperating from illness. He didn''t want to talk to her about this at first, but he had not forgotten his identity. It was taboo for a subordinate to make his own decisions. The injury lasted for less than half a month. Song Jin''s physical injury improved a lot, and he heard rumors about the capital. General Pei Xin led the army to return for reinforcements. The remaining rebels were leaderless and retaken Zhangjiawan without much effort. Now that the situation in the capital is stable, all they have to do is wait for Prince Rui to return to the capital. However, the envoys sent by the imperial court failed to negotiate with the Jianning rebels. Rumor has it that the imperial court is mobilizing a large army to go south to quell the rebellion. These things have nothing to do with Song Jin, but there are beneficiaries. Since news spread that the unrest in the capital had subsided, the group of people who were chasing Song Jin disappeared. Song Jin immediately decided to set off. It took me two or three days to go back to Huizhou. Instead of returning to Yi County, he stayed in She County. He did not show up to see the Qin family. Instead, he sent Niu Niu and Guai Guai to the hot spring village in Huangshan. The eldest son was there, along with Boss Qin and Li. The person who sent the child there was Xing Lun. Song Jin finally got some connections from her family, so she wanted to investigate. It was inconvenient to take her child on a long trip. Another point was that it was safer for the child to stay with her grandparents than with her mother. The experience of being hunted made Song Jin realize the fact that her current abilities are limited and she is not completely sure to protect her child. Qin Chi really overestimated her when he entrusted the child to her. She even overestimated her before. himself. Otherwise, she would not have lost an unborn child. "Uncle Xing, won''t mother be with us?" In the compartment of the carriage, Niu Niu asked Xing Lun with big doubtful eyes. Xing Lun touched the top of her head with his big hand, "Your mother has important things to do." "Can''t you take Niuniu with you?" Niuniu didn''t want to be separated from her mother. Xing Lun said patiently: "No, your mother also feels sorry for Niu Niu and can''t bear Niu Niu suffering with her. When she finishes her work, she will come back to Niu Niu. Uncle knows that you are a sensible child and will definitely understand you. Mothers hard work, isnt it? "I know, I can''t drag my mother down." When Niu Niu said this, she was languid and in a very low mood, "If mother has something to do, why can''t you let father do it? Didn''t you say that father has become a high official? He always has a lot of things to do, and he doesn''t need mother to do it. "It''s not that I''m not looking for him, it''s that your father is too far away in the capital." Xing Lun did not discredit Qin Chi in front of his children. "Also, he also has more important things to be busy with. Niu Niu will understand when she grows up." Niu Niu pouted, very unhappy. Why are there so many things for adults? When the carriage stopped. Xing Lun got off the bus with his two children. There were people waiting outside. Before sending the child, he had already said hello in advance. He Lianpu arranged for someone to come down the mountain to pick him up. Boss Qin and Mrs. Li knew to follow. Xing Lun handed Li a letter, "This is a letter from our boss to the second elder." Li took it and said, "Thank you for your hard work." "No hard work, farewell." Xing Lun bowed and left quickly. Chapter 431 clue Chapter 431 Clues "Master, the child has been sent away." Xing Lun came back to report. Song Jin put on simple men''s clothing and looked like he was planning to go out. Xing Lun asked worriedly: "Aren''t you going to rest for a while? It''s not good for your health to work so hard." "I know it well." Another reason why Song Jin sent the child back was that she found a clue that the medicinal material dealer bought it from a brother''s house in Ningbo Prefecture. This matter requires a trip to Ningbo. Ningbo is located to the east of Huizhou, close to the East China Sea. There are many surrounding islands, and its hard to say whats going on behind the scenes. On the surface, it has not been affected by the rebels, and there are even Daxia troops stationed there. If you want to go there, you can first depart from Tunxi Pier, take a boat ride of about seven days to Hangzhou Pier, and then transfer to Ningbo. The Song family was taken away that year. According to Qin Chi''s investigation, he was taken aboard a cargo ship from Tunxi Pier and then entered the East China Sea, where he disappeared without a trace. Later, Song Jin''s investigation may be related to the Liu family, and the focus was on Fuzhou. Some people saw Song Kuan in Fuzhou some time ago. But this clue is equally important. That day, Song Jin took people on board the ship. The capital, the imperial palace. During national mourning. Qin Chi was dressed in plain clothes and was handling government affairs when he suddenly received news that Song Jin and her child were missing. It can only be said that the distance is far away and time is misleading. "What are you talking about?!" Qin Chi was so shocked that he couldn''t sit still. Qin Ba''s heart was lifted. The young master has not lost his temper like this for a long time. "Sir, the people below are already searching with all their strength. As soon as there is any news, they will be sent to the capital." "How long have you been missing?" Qin Chi was in great power, and his aura became stronger and stronger. Qin Ba lowered his head and didn''t know what to say. I can only say that the people in the trading house over there are unlucky. On the way back to Huizhou, Qin Chi asked shopkeeper Tao to say hello in advance and told them to protect Song Jin and the others. The problem was that Song Jin and others were chased and killed as soon as they came ashore. The route had already deviated seriously, and the incident happened right where it happened. , that chamber of commerce had not notified them in advance. If they had not discovered that a group of people were following them and arrested them for interrogation, they might not have known that Song Jin and her children were missing. Qin Ba simply handed the secret letter in his arms to Qin Chi. Qin Chi took it and read it quickly. He was so angry that he almost spit out a mouthful of blood and felt dizzy. Lu Baizhou, who was standing next to him, helped Qin Chi, who was about to lose his balance, and shouted loudly: "Quick, go and ask for Dr. Jing!" Qin Chi raised his hand to indicate that it was not necessary. He sat down and calmed down for a while before he calmed down. "It''s just that I didn''t get a good rest during this period. It''s not a big problem." "It''s better to let the doctor take a look so that you can feel at ease." Lu Baizhou was transferred from Dali Temple to work with Qin Chi at his own initiative. During this period, Qin Chi was so busy that he almost didn''t have time to eat or sleep. In addition, his body needs to be nourished. No, I''m almost sick from exhaustion. No matter Qin Chi''s stop. People outside still called Old Doctor Jing over to take Qin Chi''s pulse. He said with a solemn expression: "Young master needs more rest, at least enough sleep. If this continues, the health you have spent all these years will be in vain." "There are a lot of things to do, and I also want to rest." Qin Chi''s dark eyes have not disappeared in this period of time. Thinking of what happened to Song Jin and the child, my heart ached and my head ached a little. He took a deep breath, put the folds gently on the table, rubbed his eyebrows and said: "Go and ask Mr. Li Ge to come over. You can''t just throw all these folds to me. Let him help approve them. If he can''t do it, then Im looking for Mr. Xu. I need to rest for a few days. "Yes, sir." Lu Baizhou hurriedly went to deliver the message. Qin Chi strode out of the palace gate. Things in the DPRK and China have been stable recently, but there are a lot of things that need to be rectified. He has dumped everything that can be dumped to others. He only needs to be watched. However, there are still many things that require Qin Chi to do personally. Qin Chi left the main hall. Instead of going to rest, he was transferred to prison. In the innermost memory. Qin Chi met He Liankai. "A rare guest, Mr. Qin." He Liankai looked at Qin Chi as if he were looking at a strange species, "You are guarding the country of Daxia conscientiously. What do you want? The Helian family''s country was also snatched from others. You can change the dynasty and let The worlds surname is Qin. "It''s no use to me to sow discord." Qin Chi immediately exposed the other party''s intentions. There is no mistake in every song, one post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look! He Liankai stopped talking. Qin Chi asked again: "You ordered my wife and children to be intercepted and killed?" He Liankai was stunned at first, and then he understood the reason why Qin Chi came here, and he couldn''t help but feel happy, "Hahaha, didn''t your Qin Qian''s wife and children die early? No, the two children died early, and the ex-wife disappeared." "If something happens to them, Liu Ji will die." "you!" He Liankai stood up angrily, and the iron chains on his hands and feet clattered first, then clanged. Qin Chi added: "I''m curious how I found out?" He Liankai first suspected that there was betrayal by a confidant. Qin Chi quickly explained his doubts, "You don''t have to think too much. No one will betray you. As long as people are not stupid, they can guess that you have descendants. If there is no successor, will it take so long to conquer the world? ? If you really wanted to destroy this country as you showed, Daxia would have been in chaos more than ten years ago. " Helian Kai''s face became ferocious and twisted upon hearing this. I didn''t expect Qin Chi to have such a cunning idea. Based on this alone, I guessed that he had descendants, and even found out his hidden son. From this point alone, it can be seen that the Jianning Mansion has many spies named Qin, and how many of them have been infiltrated by his influence. Its not like I havent come to rescue people in prison during this time. Without exception, they were killed by Qin Chi''s people. Not to mention saving people, Qin Chi had mostly cleaned up the remaining manpower in the city. He Liankai became more and more afraid of Qin Chi. Several of his attempts to commit suicide were thwarted, and later he simply broke the pot and tried to live one day at a time. In fact, people don''t always have the courage to commit suicide. The momentum is gone, but they want to see how the world will end. At the same time, he also wanted to see Prince Rui. At least he had to tell him personally that he killed his heir. He wanted to see Prince Rui''s painful face. "Qin Qian, Liu Ji is not my son. I don''t have the habit of randomly identifying my son. Remember, after I die, don''t blame me for the inexplicable son. I don''t want to be a cheap father to you." Even though he was guessed, He Liankai refused to admit it. Qin Chi had no intention of admitting it, "It doesn''t matter if you don''t admit it. Anyway, I only recognize what I found out." He Liankai was calm now. I just came here to confirm whether the person sent to hunt down Song Jin and the others was He Lian Kai. Qin Chi achieved his goal and did not stay any longer. Turn around and stride away. He Liankai looked at Qin Chi''s back with poisonous eyes. Chapter 432 Did you do something wrong? Chapter 432 Did you do something wrong? "Sir, there was something wrong with his eyes when he looked at your back just now." Qin Yi, who was hiding in the dark, did not miss He Lian Kai''s eyes when he looked at Qin Chi''s back. After leaving the imperial prison, he mentioned it. Qin Chi hummed after hearing this, "Let someone contact him secretly to see what he wants to do." The imperial prison is currently under Qin Chi''s control. It is impossible for He Liankai to contact the outside world, but Qin Chi can give him that opportunity. Wait for Qin Chi to return to his residence. Even though he was resting, he was still restless, so he sent another wave of people to look for Song Jin and the child. That night, the person who arranged to contact He Liankai found out He Liankai''s intentions. He actually wanted to spread rumors that he had killed his father-in-law. Qin Chi looked terrible when he saw the news. "If it weren''t for keeping him useful, I really want to kill him!" Qin Chi gritted his teeth and said in hatred. Qin Yi said comfortingly: "Sir, my wife is a lucky star, everything will be fine." "I hope so." Qin Chi believed in Song Jin, but he couldn''t suppress his worries. For a long time, he stared at the moonlight outside the window in a daze, "Qin Yi, do you think I made a mistake by sending them away?" "Young Master is not wrong." Qin Yi followed Qin Chi and could understand Qin Chi''s approach. "The situation was unclear at that time and the outcome was unpredictable. The purpose of sending away the wife and the two young masters was to protect them." Otherwise, if a person stays in the capital, he will undoubtedly be a target. You must know that there were two swords hanging on Qin Chi''s head at that time, one was given by Emperor Mingcheng, and the other was given by He Liankai. If you are not careful, your head will fall to the ground. Qin Chi had to endure a lot of pressure to reach the current situation. Even now, it is not good and it is still troubled by internal and external troubles. Finally, Qin Yi found Doctor Jing''s soothing incense and lit it in the room. Within a quarter of an hour, Qin Chi fell asleep. At this moment, the ajar door was pushed open. Lao Li came in with a bowl of medicine. "Are you burning incense before going to bed again?" Lao Li came over to check and smelled the scent of soothing incense. He couldn''t help but said sadly, "We can''t keep up like this. My body won''t be able to bear it." Qin Yi didn''t know how to reply. He could only hide his figure silently. He was just a secret guard, and he shouldn''t worry about these things. However, as soon as he returned to his hiding place, Qin Chi suddenly woke up in bed and sat up. This shocked Lao Litou. "Master?" Old Li Tou shouted tentatively. Qin Chi came to his senses in a daze. He had just had a nightmare, dreaming that something happened to Song Jin and his child, which woke him up from his sleep. He pressed on his heart. My heart was beating very fast. It was because I was frightened just now. Fortunately, it was just a dream. Lao Li passed the medicine bowl over his head, "Sir, drink the medicine before going to bed." Qin Chi took the medicine and drank it in one gulp. When Old Li headed out, he suddenly said: "Qin Yi." "My subordinate is here." Qin Yi appeared again, kneeling on one knee and obeying the order. Qin Chi ordered: "You take someone there. You must find Madam and stay with her to protect her." "Subordinates take orders." Qin Yi responded and went out. At this time, it was quite an irrational decision to send Qin Yi, the best martial artist, away from the capital, but Qin Chi couldn''t care less. The dream just now really scared him. Qin Chi spent several days in a state of disbelief. Finally, news came that Song Jin was safe. Not long after, Song Jin sent the child to Huangshan. I only stopped in Huizhou for one day, and then boarded a boat to Hangzhou for an unknown purpose. Song Jin is being remembered by Qin Chi. At this time, he was in Ningbo City, secretly investigating incognito. She did not immediately go looking for the so-called "brother" in the drug dealer''s mouth, but arranged for someone to keep an eye on him. This time Xing Lun came with him. He didn''t need to follow, but he insisted. Xing Lun knows some people here, and the fleet has been to Ningbo. "This person''s name is Tian Dazhu. He works as a steward in the largest brothel in the city. He is usually responsible for purchasing." When Song Jin heard this, he knew that Tian Dazhu must have someone powerful behind him. The brothel business can be expanded. It is impossible without a backer. Song Jin''s beautiful eyebrows raised slightly, "We don''t need to do anything to him, we just need to know the source of the medicinal materials." "Leave this to me." Xing Lun decided to come forward in person. He had come to Ningbo to do business before, so he contacted Tian Dazhu on the pretext of buying medicinal materials at a high price, which would not easily arouse the other party''s suspicion. Song Jin hesitated, "This is not safe." "I will protect myself well. Besides, I am just a customer. What''s the problem if you come to your door openly? Being secretive will make people suspicious." Xing Lun has a way to deal with Tian Dazhu. Seeing that Song Jin still didn''t let go, Xing Lun said helplessly: "My boss, these people are just asking for money." Song Jin finally compromised, "I will go with you and said that an elder in my family is seriously ill and urgently needs Song Jin." If he is willing to pay a high price for his medicinal materials, I guess the other party will probably take the bait and send someone to keep an eye on him secretly when he goes to contact someone." There are several flavors of Song''s medicinal herbs, but they have long been discontinued on the market. It''s not difficult to pick one. Xing Lun''s eyes lit up, "My boss''s plan is feasible." But how to get online? Song Jin saw Xing Lun''s methods again. Xing Lun went to Tian Dazhu''s home openly and with great courtesy. Song Jin pretended to be a rich man, holding a jade fan in his hand, and followed Xing Lun there in a graceful manner. Tian Dazhu always had to greet strange guests when they came to his door. Tian Dazhu was very wary at first, but then Xing Lun directly told the name of the medicinal material dealer, saying that he introduced Xing Lun, and Tian Dazhu became less wary. Of course, it doesnt matter whether it was introduced by a drug dealer or not. Consider him at this moment. For Xing Lun, as long as he achieves his goal, he doesn''t mind the means and process. There is no mistake in every song, one post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look! Most of the people talking during the dinner were Xing Lun and Tian Dazhu. Song Jin acted as a tool throughout the whole process. Xing Lun poured wine for Tian Dazhu, "I just discovered that Manager Tian and Boss Tian have the same surname." "Hey, brothers from the same clan." Tian Dazhu picked up the wine glass and took a long sip. Xing Lun said enthusiastically: "No wonder, at first I thought you were a bit kind-hearted, but I was embarrassed to say that, now you look like we are brothers, both loyal and loyal men." A good word came down. Fill the other person''s wine glass again. After a while, the two began to call themselves brothers. As they chatted, Xing Lun said with emotion: "Boss Tian''s character is one of the best in Anqing Mansion." Song Jin found an excuse to leave. He was led out of the living room by his servants. Xing Lun looked at the gate and waited for Song Jin''s back to disappear. Then he approached Tian Dazhu pretending to be mysterious and said in a low voice: "To be honest, brother, the guy just now is not short of money. An elder in his family is seriously ill and urgently needs help." The herbs are lacking in flavor and are barely effective. " "Is there something going on here?" Tian Dazhu became interested. Xing Lun acted like he was on the same team as him, as if he wanted to take Song Jin as his scapegoat, and he narrowed the distance between him and Tian Dazhu in just a few words. In Xing Luns fabricated words. An elder in Song Jin''s family is sick and urgently needs Song''s medicinal materials. No matter how expensive the medicinal materials are, he will buy them and slaughter them as fat sheep. And he was in the medicinal materials business, and he also wanted to do long-term business with Tian Dazhu. He said that he wanted as much medicinal materials as Tian Dazhu had here. "Price is not an issue." Xing Luncai said arrogantly. Tian Dazhu knew that Xing Lun was a businessman. Xing Lun took the opportunity to stuff a stack of silver notes into Tian Dazhu''s hand. Each one was one hundred taels, and there were ten in total. "This is my sincerity. Regardless of whether the deal is successful or not, I handed over Brother Tian as a brother." Friends." Tian Dazhu couldn''t hide the greed in his eyes. But on the surface, he still pretended to refuse. Xing Lun insisted on giving it again, "If you push me further, you won''t treat me as a brother." "Okay, I''ll take it this time." Tian Dazhu looked like there was nothing he could do against him, "Brother of yours, I, Tian, ??have made a decision." Wait for Song Jin to come back. Xing Lun and Tian Dazhu were very familiar with each other. It didn''t look like they had just met today, but rather like they had known each other for many years. However, until Song Jin left, Tian Dazhu still gritted his teeth and refused to sell the medicinal materials. However, while carrying Song Jin on his back, he gave Xing Lun a tacit look. Xing Lun also returned the look. After leaving Tian''s house, he got on the carriage. In the carriage, Xing Lun took out a handkerchief, wiped his hands, then carefully folded the handkerchief and put it in his arms. Song Jin looked at his calm and calm posture and asked softly, "Are you stable?" "Stable." Xing Lun replied with a smile. It would be normal for Tian Dazhu not to agree on the spot. If he agreed after just one meeting, it would be them who need to be wary. Xing Lun added: "He should ask people to inquire about our origins first. He won''t be able to find out our boss''s origins for a while. It shouldn''t be difficult to find out my origins." "What''s your relationship with the Song family?" Song Jin knew that the rebels were probably behind Tian Dazhu. She is the master behind Xing Lun''s Jifang Pharmacy. It is not a secret among the big forces. Although it has not spread to the outside world, there is no guarantee that Tian Dazhu will know about it. Xing Lun shook his head, "The medicinal materials they sell are not clean and Tian Dazhu will not report them." Snakes have their own ways, rats have their own ways. What''s more, disputes at the top are actually quite distant to those living at the bottom. What these people care about most is the benefits they get. Song Jin understood. The next matter of dealing with Tian Dazhu was handed over to Xing Lun. Xing Lun went out twice more and came back drunk. It wasn''t until the third time that he showed up, and when he came back he said the deal was done. The so-called successful negotiation means that the deal has been negotiated. Just wait for Tian Dazhu to get the medicinal materials. Chapter 433 Your son Chapter 433 Xing Lun didn''t expect one thing. It was Song Jin who went out and went to stare in person, so that Xing Lun was anxious and angry, but at the same time, he couldn''t control Song Jin and was not qualified. On the other. Song Bingwei followed Dazhu out of the city. There are Xiao Liuzi and others, all of which are good at tracking and investigating. They followed Tian Dazhu to a small fishing village on the beach. Tian Dazhu entered the village chief''s house. After half an hour. Tian Dazhu left the fishing village in a good mood. It seemed that he would return to the city. Song Jin asked him to follow him back to the city. Others left the situation of investigating the small fishing village. After half an hour, after half an hour. Xiao Liuzi came back and reported: "Dong family, this fishing village is suspicious." "What did you find? I didn''t see suspicious." Song Jin observed in the distance for a long time, and the small fishing village I saw was no different from the ordinary fishing village. Xiao Liuzi shrugged his nose, "There is no fishy smell. People who dry the dried fish did not smell the fishy smell." Song Jin understood as soon as he heard it. The real fishing village will make a living by fishing, and every family will have fish dried. It is too strange to have no fishy smell. Song Jin''s gaze fell in front of some houses, dried fish hanging under the eaves. Xiao Liuzi looked at her eyes, "Those fish are more like to cover people''s eyes." "Wait first." Song Jin and others hid near the fishing village. Monitor the situation of fishing villages at any time, especially paying attention to the village chief. Until the middle of the night, some people from the village chief appeared with fishing lanterns and went to the fishing boat at the sea and left with fishing boats. "No boat, can''t chase it." Xiao Liuzi regretted it. Song Jin narrowed his eyes. The fishing boat goes out of the sea, there is light on the boat, and a lantern at night is a lantern at night. Immediately Song Jin asked Xiao Liuzi, "Will you use the fishing boat?" "Will use it." Xiao Liuzi didn''t say that he would just use it. Several other people also knew how to row, and one person showed it: "The owner, but we have not scratched at sea, and there is no experience in going to sea at night to lose the direction." Song Jin glanced at several other fishing boats on the seaside, and then fell on a few wolf dogs raised by the village. After thinking about it, I finally gave up. She wanted to keep up, but did not take the risk of her life. Song Jin found a place to sit down and draw on the ground with branches. "Then let''s wait first to see how long he takes back and forth. From the length of time, it can also be inferred that the rough range can be inferred. " So a few people discussed. How many islands are around, they only know about one. When the sky was gray, the fishing boat of the village chief''s family returned. At noon, Song Jin went back. When Xing Lun saw that people came back safely, they couldn''t get up and down in one breath, trying to calm down as much as possible: "Dong family, the next time I can''t take risks, it makes people very worried." "I just followed it and didn''t do dangerous things." Song Jin moved back. I''m afraid that Xing Lun will be endless again, and Song Jin quickly tells Xing Lun to Xing Lun, and then left a sentence, "So tired, I''ll rest first, and the next thing will be given to you." Xing Lun was stretched out. Song Jintou left without returning. As soon as he saw Xing Lun''s face, he knew that he was worried about not sleeping at night, and Song Jin consciously lost his losses. Although Xing Lun is under her men, there is a relationship between Yinlong, after all, it is different from the real hand. At least it is much deep in love. Besides, she went out to forget to talk to him, which caused him to worry about it. Night. Xing Lunguo really took over the matter. How did he do it, Song Jin didn''t know. But after a few days, people came back and had the results of the investigation. Ningbo secretly hidden a force. The old nest was on a private island. It built a pharmacy and weapon workshop. It specializes in various military supplies. It is regularly transported to leave. No one knows where to transport things. This force has been hidden for many years, and it is unclear who is behind the master. Song Jin doubted the power of the prince first at the first time. The Song family was robbed, and it was likely to be sent to the pharmacy. Such a critical place is not in Jianning or Fuzhou, it is very expected. But to the deepest layer, there is a little understanding that Ningbo''s geographical location is not simple. "The island is tightly defensive, and our people can''t get on the island." The news of Xing Lun knew from Tian Dazhu and others. Song Jin asked: "What method did you use to let those people speak?" "Very simple, to seduce it." When Xing Lunhua bought people, you can buy one to buy one. "The person who dares to steal the master''s medicinal materials to sell will not be loyal to this organization. As long as you give enough benefits, you can ask everything and ask everything. come out." There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book! Of course not that simple. You must first buy a key character, and then smash it all the way, and buy half a threat. Among them, there are also reasons for them. Because the situation of the rebels is unknown, the upper minds float, making the people under the heart. Xing Lun asked: "What do the owner do? With our ability, we cannot save people from the island." "I can only help Qin Qi''an. I write a letter of help. You send it to Shun''an Commercial Bank. I remember in the city of Ningbo, there is a branch of the commercial bank. It is always a husband and wife. I hope he can see the child''s face help." Every time the business bank comes to help, Song Jin will make good benefits. This time is no exception. It was almost half of Song Jin''s net worth. Song Jin thought it was fair. I did not expect that a part of the party, seeing the benefits she gave, indirectly clarifying the relationship, how would I think in my heart, would I be mad. Xing Lun stood aside and saw Song Jin''s letter writing. Naturally, I see the above. At the end of the content above, I also mentioned that I hope Qin Chi can keep the island''s peace. Xing Lun understood the intention of Song Jin. At this time, the staff of the court can be mobilized for siege, and the Song family can only be preserved. It can only be Qin Chi. Don''t say that the Song family was caught, and he was forced to do things for the rebels without knowing it. But this is a great crime of rebellion. The Song family wanted to be innocent and still needed someone. Otherwise, change the strangeness to clear up, and the eighty -nine will be regarded as the discussion. After sending the letter out. Song Jin lived in Ningbo City. What surprised her, a few days after the letter was sent out, Qin Yi even came to the door. "Is it so fast?" What Song Jin thought in his heart, and asked, "I have sent it out for a few days, and it is reasonable to say that the letter will not arrive at the Jingshi so soon." "Mrs., the subordinates are sent to protect you." As soon as Qin rushed to Huizhou government, he learned that the two little masters sent Huangshan and Song Jin took the boat to Hangzhou. In Huangshan, half of the Song Jin with him. Song Jin stunned, "Your son is interested." Qin Yi heard alienation. Suddenly, he had the illusion that his wife would be true, and the son might have to suffer in the future. Song Jin quickly returned. Just at this time. Xing Lun''s voice came from outside, "Who are you?" The people brought by Qin Yi blocked Xing Lun outside the door. Chapter 434 The son is thinking about the lady Chapter 434 The young master is thinking about his wife Song Jin glanced outside the door and asked Xing Lun to come in. Regarding the origins of Qin Yi and others, she spoke out without hesitation. Xing Lun was wary, "People are coming so fast?" "They didn''t come after receiving a letter. They thought my child and I were missing and sent someone to look for us." Song Jin had covered up his whereabouts, but he wasn''t surprised that Qin Yi could find him. Qin Yi noticed something strange. Before Xing Lun could speak, he spoke first: "Madam, are you in trouble?" "I came here because I found clues about my family." Song Jin told Qin Yi what she found out. She knew that the other party was Qin Chi''s confidant. "It''s a pity that it takes a long time to send a letter to the capital and back. If not, I dont want to wait a day. As soon as Qin thought of something, he raised his hands and said cautiously: "Madam, this matter is of great importance. Please allow me to go to the island to explore first." "Can." Song Jin knew that they were just talking and not asking for her opinion, not to mention that she was happy to see the results. As a result, after a while, she found that Qin Yi just went out to the door. People are back again. Xing Lun said nothing when he saw this. Song Jin and him looked at each other, and couldn''t help but ask Qin Yiyi: "Didn''t you say you were going to investigate the situation on the island?" "Yes! I ordered people to check, and the duty of my subordinates is to protect the safety of my wife." Qin Yi bent down and saluted, and secretly glanced at Xing Lun, leaving Mrs. Liu alone with this man, and he didn''t want to dare. Song Jin didn''t notice Qin Yi''s little thoughts, but Xing Lun did. Because the world was harsh on women, he took the initiative to resign. Qin Yi waited for Xing Lun to step out of the house and follow him to leave, but the moment he turned around, Song Jin stopped him and asked hesitantly: "Is your young master okay?" "The master is thinking about his wife." As soon as Qin avoided the important matter, he said lightly. Song Jin sighed slightly and said, "Your young master and I have reconciled. There is no need to call me madam anymore. Just call me Lady Song." "lady" Qin Yi wanted to say something else, but Song Jin stopped him. When Qin Chi received the letter, he learned that there was a rebel workshop in Ningbo specializing in making military supplies. Qin Chi was also surprised, and then he went to see Daxia''s map. It can be seen from this that the rebels have never thought about settling in the Jianning area. They also thought about sending troops northward in the future, but their intention was disrupted by him. Qin Chi immediately gave the order. Let people mobilize troops to solve this matter. Then he learned that Qin Yi was in Ningbo and allowed him to supervise. Regarding the ordinary people imprisoned on the island, Qin Chi said that they were ordinary people of Daxia, innocent people were affected, and ordered the government to properly arrange them. With the secret order from Qin Chi. The troops mobilized were not the government troops stationed in Ningbo, but Qin Chi ordered his confidants to mobilize troops from next door just in case. First, the counter-rebellion troops were placed between Ningbo and Jianning, preventing the rebels from supporting them. Maybe, we can secretly attack the island again. The day of action. Qin Yi asked Song Jin if he was going. Song Jin agreed without hesitation. On the day when Song Jin secretly boarded the warship. Qin Chizheng personally led hundreds of officials to the city gate to welcome Prince Rui back to the capital. The scene was solemn and solemn. According to later folk descriptions, flags were fluttering at the city gate, golden dragon flags and colorful phoenix flags complemented each other, drums and music were blaring, the sound was earth-shattering, the procession was huge, and the red carpet was spread on the ground, extending all the way to Chengtian Gate. Prince Rui soon ascended the throne. Then comes the award ceremony. Qin Chi was promoted again, to the first rank. This promotion is only a false position, but it is an honor. It was still a trivial thing that happened to Qin Chi. The most shocking thing in the capital was the day Prince Rui ascended the throne. He Lianpu, who had lived in Huangshan for a long time, returned to Beijing at some unknown time and showed up on the day Prince Rui ascended the throne. Next to him was Li, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes and made up with exquisite makeup. The twins changed their surname to Helian. The eldest son Qin Linzhang was canonized as prince. Ascending the throne and establishing the crown prince together suppressed the floating hearts in the court. At the same time, Qin Chi''s life experience was exposed, causing an uproar in the capital. In short, the military power changed and Daxia changed. Song Jin didn''t know these things. All he wanted to do was go to the island to find his family. After a night of fighting and killing the rebels on the peninsula, Song Jin stood on the deck and did not immediately land on the island, but he also stayed up all night. "Don''t worry, boss, we will win." Xing Lun also stood on the deck and looked at the island in front of him. Seeing Song Jin''s nervous expression, he couldn''t help but comfort him. Xing Lun opened his mouth. Qin Yi turned his gaze to him, with a look of thoughtfulness in his eyes, and then said: "Madam, the general who led the team to the island is General Pei Xin''s eldest son, Pei Xi. He went to the northwest for training a few years ago, and later returned to Beijing for training. Going to the navy, they are thoughtful and have rich combat experience, and they can easily capture a small island. " "I''m not worried." What Song Jin is worried about is not winning or losing, but the safety of his family. Search and search for two lifetimes. There is no mistake in every song, one post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look! Finally found it, which made her feel pleasantly surprised and uneasy at the same time. I didn''t hear the problem in Qin Yi''s words at all. On the contrary, Xing Lun heard it. General Pei Xin was originally from the navy, but he was transferred to guard the northeastern border. Even his son, whom he had taught since childhood, was sent to the northwest. This shows what Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty did to Daxia. He couldn''t even know how to know people well. It was daylight and the fighting ceased. There were soldiers on the island holding flags and waving them left and right in the direction of the ship. Qin Yi was the first to discover, "Madam, you can go to the island." Song Jin asked the ship to approach the island. There is a pier built on the island. This raid avoided the dock side. The large ship could not approach the shore directly and anchored only a few feet away. Song Jin and others used small boats to land on the island. He followed the leading soldier to a place. There are many stone houses and thatched houses here. Only in the higher areas, there are a few good buildings, while the rest can only be described as simple. There were corpses everywhere by now. All the rebels who survived chose to surrender. Probably the soldier leading the way had been informed and knew Song Jin''s intention, so he led him directly to the medicine shop and to a warehouse. Those who survived the pharmacy were temporarily placed in the warehouse. The warehouse has no windows. Don''t worry about people who enter escaping. The soldier seemed to be afraid that Song Jin and others would misunderstand, so he said on behalf of his superior: "The imperial court intends to treat innocent people well, but whether they are innocent or not must be verified." "I can understand, thank you brother." Song Jin dressed up as a man and said this without any sense of violation. The door of the warehouse opened, and there were hundreds of people squatting inside. Song Jin glanced around and saw a dozen men, old and young, squatting in the corner on the left. The familiar face instantly made Song Jin''s eyes turn red. Qin Yi whispered to the soldiers. The soldier stood up and said, "The Song family from Huizhou is coming out. Your family is here to pick you up." As soon as these words came out, it was like throwing a stone into the lake, causing a wave of shock. Chapter 435 Song family Chapter 435 Some people almost look at the Song family in the corner. On the contrary, the Song family looked at each other. To know that they were different from the other caught here, they were caught by the family. A middle -aged man who squatted in front, the cautious eyes fell on Song Jin''s face, just right with Song Jin''s eyes. He was stunned at first, then shocked on his face, and then quickly bowed his head and pulled up the other people, motioning to go out. Wait for the Song family to go out of the warehouse. The soldiers closed the warehouse again. Regardless of whether the Song family is young, the face is yellow muscles, and the clothes on their bodies are also patch and patch. The only thing that can be taken is that it is estimated that the washing is still clean. The middle -aged man stopped in front of Song Jin and tentatively asked, "Is it Jiner?" "It''s me, Uncle." Song Jin took a breath, suppressing the tears that almost came out, and choked, "I''ll pick you up home." "well" The middle -aged man''s eyes were also red. "I didn''t expect to see you again in my lifetime." As soon as "Jin''er" came out. Others of the Song family also recognized Song Jin one after another, and they were so excited that they couldn''t speak. Song Jin looked at other people again, and his voice choked in turn. "Me, my father?" The rest of the look suddenly stagnated. Uncle Song wiped his tears and said, "At that time, your father had only been here for half a year, and one day he was taken away. We didn''t know where to be taken away." As a prisoner, it is not easy to listen. Those who care about them are just low -levels. They know the limited things, and they can''t get in touch with the upper levels. When Xing Lun saw that Song Jin was hit, she quickly approached her ear and reminded: "The owner has forgotten. Master Song has appeared in Fuzhou this year. People are still alive, but we don''t know where he is for the time being." Song Jinxuan remembered, "I was stunned for a while, Uncle, let''s leave it here with me." "Go to you first." Uncle Song remembered his wife and daughter hurriedly. More than a dozen Song family here are men. Thinking of the confusion before, I was busy running the straw shed. Last night, they didn''t want to go out of the Fangfang. They were stopped by the guards. It didn''t take long for them to break in and killed the former guards, but regardless of what they said, they were locked in the warehouse. In order to respond to each other, the Song family was built together. It is not based on each family, but to let the female family live in the thatched house in the middle. The periphery is young. This is also to protect the family members of the family. Uncle Song ran back, "Juanzi? Juanzi?!" "Xianggong, I''m here." The door of a cottage in the middle opened a seam, and a woman''s half -sized body was exposed, and she was holding a sharp -cut wooden stick in her hand. Donbo and Uncle Cangs called people. Fortunately, the war of last night was not involved here. Mainly, the thatched house here is inconspicuous. It is clear that there are no oil and water, and the officers and soldiers will not come here if they want to scrape oil. Even if the rebel on the island wants to escape, it will not hide here. Otherwise, the officers and soldiers searched here are also accurate. What is the reason? It is the rebels on the island. They do nt worry about eating and wearing. People who are caught to work are either thin and thin, or thin and thin. No matter how you can hide it. I can only say that I have a little luck. Song Jin stood beside him, watching the uncle and his family with the fortune of the rest of his life. The sister -in -law and the dignitaries are not in good condition. It has not been the appearance of nourishing the excellence of that year. At the same time, Song Jin also discovered that at that time, hundreds of people were captured, and the number of people at the scene was less than half. In addition to her dad''s whereabouts, there were several elders. The sister -in -law and the four sisters did not see the shadow. Looking at the look of the uncle Sitang, they knew that the reason would not be good. Looking around. I didn''t see a few aunts of her father. Song Xiu''s biological mother did not see the shadow. Marrying a wife and marrying virtue, Na Na, and her uncle is a practice. Now a beautiful room is gone. Learn that Song Jin came to pick them up. The sister -in -law came up and wrapped around Song Jin, and she cried with her voice, as if venting for many years and was distressed and afraid. Over the years of hard work, I can''t see the heads in the future. Suddenly one day, I hope that the cold will come, and I will never hold back my headache and cry. Song Jinren cried with them. I wanted to say a few words of comfort, but my throat choked, and she couldn''t speak for a while. In this situation, everything is virtual. Don''t say the parties. There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book! Xing Lun and others who looked at the side were also sad. When Xing Lun saw the soldiers who had the lead, they went up and talked. Xing Lun has a little bit of knowledge. This soldier should not be said to be a low -level soldier. From the perspective of the skin, it is not good to be a broccolor brother of Jinyi and jade before the soldier. The young men of Jingzhong Wu''s family. It is usually thrown to the barracks to exercise. Xing Lun asked the others in the pharmacy. The soldiers thought about it and said, "When the island is one thing, someone will register for them, and then contact their family or the local yamen for verification. , The Song family can help. " Xing Lun glanced at the Song family. He has been imprisoned here for many years. Naturally, it is clear which one in the pharmacy is human and which one is a ghost. Xing Lun knew that the pills who were lacking in Jifang were in Jifang. If those people had no place to go, he would not mind taking over, and it didn''t matter to give them the end of the elderly. With this purpose, Xing Lun asked more meticulously. This soldier probably saw Xing Lun''s interesting, and he didn''t mind talking to Xing Lun. When the Song family cried, he said that he would clean up and leave, but he stood up and stood. There is nothing to control at all. How many broken jars? Song Jin took them towards the boat. Xing Lun took Uncle Song and went to the warehouse of the pharmacy with the soldiers. He followed the five old men with white hair behind him. He was the master who was familiar with the Song family in the warehouse. These people were caught earlier. It has been on the island for more than ten years. The family was either killed or gone early. Uncle Song proposed that letting them leave with them and giving them old -age care, they agreed without thinking about it. Several old men, soldiers were not embarrassed to take them away. A group of people boarded the boat one after another. He took the lead and imprisoned their islands for many years, and gradually narrowed in the sight until they disappeared. "Wow" Someone kneeled on the deck and cried. Crying will be infected with people, and more and more people apply tears, and even Song Jin has not resisted the red eyes. Look at it first, wait for the typo and then repair it. Chapter 436 meet Chapter 436 Seeing When the emotions eased, Song Jin let people eat food, let everyone fill up their stomachs first, and let them rest. Wait for ashore. The group finally had the feelings of the rest of their lives after the robbery, went to bathe and change clothes, and then a doctor came to give them the prescription. Everyone has problems. The Song family only rested in Ningbo for one night and insisted on leaving. Song Jin originally wanted them to raise their bodies and then take a boat back to Huizhou, but the Song family seemed to not want to wait for a moment. Xing Lun followed the accompanying soldiers and said his brother, and by the way, he asked him to help inquire Song Kuan''s whereabouts in the captive. Qin Yi stopped at the side. Finally chose to keep silent. Song Kuan was banned by the banquet of Jiangnan to the Beijing Division and planned to use it to threaten Song Jin. Qin Yi was an insidator. Qin Chi was sealed at the time, and Song Kuan''s whereabouts are now unknown. Song Jin asked the doctor to accompany. The Song family escorted the Song family back to Huizhou. On the way, it was inevitable that the army and rebels in the Xia Dynasty were inevitable. The rebels were fighting against the defenders on the other side of Fuzhou. The Liu family always thought that Fuzhou would be a thing in the pocket, but the result was delayed. Fuzhou has Wang Xuanfu to sit in the town, becoming a difficult bone. Fuzhou has been offensive for a long time, and bad news is one after another. The rebels who dived to the Beijing Division defeated north, and the army of the rebellion attacked, and the defenders of the Fuzhou were south and north, forming a attacking trend. This is very unfavorable for the rebels. The Liu family owner has always been listening to the order, and has not had the talent for leading the soldiers. Instead, Liu Ji was carefully cultivated and led the overall situation. The main reason is that he was willing to decentralize the rights of He Liankai and Yan Jiangnan, not to mention, it would really support the situation in a while. Song Jin didn''t say much about this. This major event should not be concerned about her, but to thank Master Pei Xi for led his soldiers to rescue her family. The first thing she went back to Huizhou was to donate a group of grain and medicinal materials to the army. The Song family returned. It caused a stir in Huizhou Mansion. The seal of the Song family''s ancestral house was torn and returned to the name of the Song family. As long as the other industries are still in the government, they will return the Song family. The case of the Song family was spread out early, but it was so long. No one still felt that the Song family could come back alive. Suddenly, people returned. Some relatives and people who had had deep friends came to the door with a high gift, and the second uncle of Song family and Song Jin came out. The complexion of the Song family has been raised a little, and it is still possible to see that the disappearance has not been good in these years, and even a great vitality. Instead, Song Jin has attracted much attention. Song Jin married Qin Chi. Qin Chi''s life has been returned to Huizhou Prefecture. The eldest son of Song Jin is Chu Jun. As the biological mother of the next emperor, he is valuable. I just met my aunt. When other distant kisses came to the door, Song Jin no longer came forward. When I had to see Jin Ling and Yinlong, I contacted Xing Lun again, and returned to clean up the bag. "Madam is going to go far?" Qin Yi appeared. "Yes, I had my father''s whereabouts in Fuzhou before." Song Jin knew that Qin Yi protected herself in the dark. Even if she said that she did not need his protection, the other party did not obey, because he only listened to his master. This made Song Jin helpless. Qin Yi asked again: "Madam is going to Fuzhou?" Song Jin nodded. Qin Yi said with no emotion: "The news of fighting outside, maybe Mrs. had heard it. The rebels wanted to capture Fuzhou, but they couldn''t attack. In fact, Fuzhou was the end of the crossbow. The stress was divided, and the defendant over there could not be supported. " what does that mean? It was the two armies facing each other, and the city was closed. Ordinary people can avoid it. At this time, Song Jin may not be close to the past. He was lucky enough to enter Fuzhou, which is also quite dangerous. It is hard to say when the fall. The near -sea area of ??Fuzhou is a retreat from the rebels. Qin Yi knew that Qin Chi had predicted that the rebels would not give up to attack Fuzhou. If the rebels and the court were defeated, 80 % would escape the island in the south and escape from Daxia. Because of the average island, the rebels probably didn''t look at it. Qin Yi tried to persuade Song Jin to give up, "Even if the wife is not worried about her safety, she must think about others." He originally wanted to make his wife consider Qin Chi, but he heard this in Song Jin''s ear, but remembered the period of being chased, and the death of Wei Yuan and others. Song Jin slowly lowered his eyelids and covered the emotions in his heart. "You are right, I think again." It was said that after Qin Yi exited, Song Jin did not clean up the bag. This is undoubtedly a temporary abandonment. When Xing Lun came, he heard that Song Jin said that he changed his mind, and he didn''t show his face, and he felt secretly relieved. In fact, he knew that Fuzhou was very dangerous now. Lun is not easy to refute. "Dong family, I will make people notice." Xing Lun could only comfort her like this. Song Jin nodded absently, "Find me a yard outside, and wants to move out for a few days. There are often guests in the family who come here. I am not convenient to live here." There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book! Mainly she is here. Others always ask, they will only add trouble to the second uncle. After this matter, the Song family must rest for a long time. The previous industry Song Jin could add it. There are also seals of the family. The only trouble is the losing collection of the Song family. In fact, the large number of books are the foundation of the Song family. At that time, Liu''s copy of his family copied some of the medical books belonging to the Song family, and it would be possible to find it. It is difficult for the rest of the lonely to find it. Sometimes people think of whatever people think. A girl came to report in a hurry, "Miss, someone gave you a few boxes of things." "What?" Song Jin asked casually. Xing Lun also looked at the girl, "Who sent it?" "It is said that the people from the capital." The girl replied respectfully. Song Jin got up and walked outside. Xing Lun thought about it and followed her. When he came to the hall of the guests, the moment he entered the threshold, Song Jin saw a person who could not appear here. The man was facing the door. Long -body Yu Li, like Qiongzhi Yushu. There is a strong book of the book. It seems that the breeze is like a long moon, and there is a sense of broken feeling that is indispensable in the elegance and nobleness. When you see it only a back, it is extremely pity. Song Jin was stunned. When he heard the footsteps, the man turned slowly, and his eyebrows were gentle: "Mrs., I''m here to pick you up." Qin Chi took a few steps forward and wanted to welcome Song Jin. Song Jin took two steps back subconsciously, and immediately gathered his sleeves to bow to Qin Chi. "Master Wife Song Jin has seen Master Qin." "..." Chapter 437 Its better not to see Chapter 437 Qin Chi came to imagine a lot of meetings. However, he never thought that his family would not recognize him, and he tone to him in his tone. For a moment, his heart was slightly tingling, and the panic that the stock could not say was extended in his heart. But who is Qin Qi''an? Since entering the DPRK, it has long been practicing how the emotions in the bottom of their hearts have flooded, and the face can still be calm and water. Qin Chi was sure to look at Song Jin. Time is like setting at this moment. "Lady?" Qin Chi looked at Song Jin in the salute. Song Jin bent down, he could only see her head, stepped forward to help her arm, and let her avoid it. At this time, he confirmed his conjecture. "Master Qin, we have been away from me." Song Jin said calmly. Qin Chi''s face changed slightly, "I said, at that time, it was only an appropriate measure." "He Li is the fact." Song Jin didn''t want to continue this topic with Qin Chi. She raised her eyes and looked straight at Qin Chi. "Actually it is so good, do you think is it? We are barely together, and now they just return to everyone." "Oh!" Hearing this, Qin Chi laughed at anger. For a long time, he said helplessly: "Don''t make trouble, it''s not good before, I shouldn''t send you and the children in that way in that way." But he was scared at the time! Fearing that his wife and children stayed in the Beijing Division, it would happen when it happened. He tried his best to divert the eyes of the other person, and now he has finally passed. She even wants to want him? Song Jin knew what he said at this time, he might not hear it, but he was only silent. But the more silent she was. Instead, Qin Chi took her helplessness. If she loses his temper and even beats him, and the matter of departure may be easy to pass. She is standing in front of him, calm and rational, clearly showing her seriousness. It''s not a child''s play, nor is it Qiao Joe. She is calm and wants to separate from him. "Why?" Qin Chi puzzled. Song Jin was silent for a moment, "Waiting for you to calm down, let''s talk about it again." "I''m very calm at this moment." Qin Chi said a word. There is a great point that he will not give up the momentum. Song Jin Xu Xu raised his eyes and greeted Qin Chi''s gaze. There was no intention to shrink half a point, only unprecedented firmness, "I can''t deserve Master Qin." After saying this, she gave Qin Chi a retreat at an elegant manner, and turned to leave. Qin Chi stepped forward and grabbed her wrist. "This reason can''t convince me." Song Jin shook his hand away. String out of the head without returning. Walked too much! Xing Lun, who had followed him in the back, just put this scene in his eyes. Seeing that Song Jin was striding away, he gave a gift to Qin Chi and turned to follow. Qin Chi was emotionally unstable. Seeing Xing Lun behind Song Jin, he was even more panicked. "Qin Yi, what''s going on?" Qin Chi shouted angrily. Qin Yi, hiding in the dark, was not good. The son was angry, why did you think of him? Qin Yi didn''t figure out what Qin Chi wanted to ask at this time, and vaguely returned: "Maybe the wife is having your anger?" "I am angry with me? Why do you feel angry with me?" Qin Chi turned angrily and stared back at Qin Yi again. "She was not angry with Xing Lun as her husband and wife earlier. Why am she angry? Xing Lun''s mind, she will not understand, she will not understand. Niuniu called his father! "" Step towards the coffee table. He picked up the tea bowl in one hand, drank the cold tea, and put down the tea bowl heavily. A bowl of cold tea under the belly. The reason that made him lose his mind gradually returned. Qin Chi was extremely annoyed, and his eyes stared at Qin Yi fiercely. "What I said just now is not allowed to be revealed." "Yes, I understand." Qin was bent over and pressed his head very low. If you do nt hold back and want to laugh, you will not be noticed by his son. It cannot be said that he has passed the rules, but he was sure that he couldn''t deny it, and the glory of the bottom of his heart. No, this is not the idea that subordinates should have. Qin Yi stepped back until the threshold, Fang Fei turned out quickly. On the other side. Xing Lun was behind Song Jin, and he was absent -minded. There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book! Song Jin turned straight to him and asked, "You see it, do you think I am making trouble unreasonable?" "No." Xing Lun lowered his head slightly, "No matter what you are, it is my owner of Xing Lun." "Ha, thank you." Song Jin''s mood was a little better. Turning around her standing on the steps of the garden, looking at the clouds in the sky, she was so fascinating for a while. Xing Lun saw that she didn''t want to speak, and didn''t speak anymore. As usual, standing quietly behind her, quiet as if there was no existence. Qin Chi, who happened to come out. After witnessing this scene, he struggled to go up in his heart. Song Jin turned to the backyard and walked. Xing Lun held a gift behind Song Jin. This time, he didn''t keep up. When he looked up, he found Qin Chi, who was standing at the corner of the corridor not far away. Followed by Qin Chi. Not only the guards protected on the bright side, but also the dark guard protected in the dark, many people have the attendant. Xing Lun only needed a glance, and suddenly he understood Song Jin''s decision. Today, Qin Chi is different from the past. It is a real and unable to be unattainable. Since then, even after the rest of his life, his every move has attracted much attention. For them businessmen. The status of the two is very different. People in different worlds are just together. One party always needs to be able to take it alone. No matter how deep the feelings are, it is difficult to get away early. It is a correct and wise decision. Xing Lun knew Song Jin and was always a terrible woman. Xing Lun was far away. After Xing Lun retreated, Qin Chi asked the people around him, "What does it mean?" "Sympathy?" Qin Bay went out. Lao Huo has different opinions, "No, is pity?" Lao Li shook his head, "I didn''t say right, I think it seems to be sympathetic and compassionate." Qin Chi''s cool eyes passed through the three. Qin Yi, who was hidden in the secret place, wanted to say, he didn''t know what the last glance it meant, but he was both sympathetic and compassionate to Qin Eight and Three. The three guys did not know. Essence In fact, it is no wonder that the three. What Song Jin and Qin Chifang said, only Qin Yi and Xing Lun heard it. Qin Chi was eaten here in Song Jin, but he was warmly treated by the Song family. Not only because he was Song Jin''s husband, but also benefited from several large boxes of books he sent. It is part of the losses of the Song family, and most of them are the medical classics of the ancestors. After talking with the Song family. Qin Chi tentative that they did not know the "harmony", and they were relieved inexplicably. At least there is room for turning. Chapter 438 Its so good Chapter 438 This is pretty good Song Jin went back to the courtyard where he lived. Approaching the door of the courtyard, I saw someone hovering there. "Mu Ting?" Song Jin was surprised. When Mu Ting heard Song Jin''s shout, he suddenly rejoiced and turned towards Song Jin, "Dong family!" "Are you back?" Since being sent out of the Beijing Division, Song Jin has never seen Mu Ting, nor does it have news about her. Suddenly, there was still a little accident. When a person greeted, Song Jin quickly discovered that there was an extra scar on the cheek on the left of Mu Ting, and his heart couldn''t help it. Obviously what happened when she didn''t know. Song Jin asked: "How is this time?" "I was getting wounds before. I heard that Master Qin was likely and came to the south to supervise the army. I know you have taken the opportunity to follow in Huizhou." Mu Ting Barabara said. The incident was not separated from the hearing. On the same day, Mu Ting and others pretended to protect the master from the city. It didn''t take long for the attack. The people of the entire caravan were more injured and injured. Qin Yi was seriously injured. He has not recovered. After listening, Song Jin also knew one thing. Qin Chi did not deliberately pick up Song Jin, but came to the south with the task of rebellion. At this moment, Song Jin felt the truth. If he was a busy person like him, how would he leave Beijing for private affairs? impossible. Song Jin learned from the maid''s mouth. Qin Chi will be in the Song family today. The subordinates sent his bag to Song Jin''s courtyard. After learning that Qin Chi couldn''t live long, Song Jin did not care about this matter. He ordered someone to clean up the room next door and sent Qin Chi''s bag. When Qin Chi accompanied the uncle of the Song family to drink a few glasses, when the subordinates were led by, they found that the wife''s room locked the door from the inside, and the place he wanted to live was next door. "Son, do you want to knock on the door?" Qin Ba tentatively asked. Qin Chi twisted his eyebrows, "Forget it, don''t quarrel with her." Turned to the next door. When Qin Ba went out, Qin Chi called Qin Yi and asked what happened during this time. The focus was on the base where the Ningbo rebels were built on the island. This time, Song Jin helped him busy. Clear this stronghold. It was considered a way to break a military -demand for the rebels. Qin Chi came out this time to lead the task to solve the problem of the southern rebels. In addition, it was also to pick up Song Jin. He couldn''t stay in Huizhou for long, and he had to reconcile Song Jin before leaving. Early the next morning. Song Jin woke up and just stepped out of the bedroom. Qin Chi was crowned outside the door and looked at her with a smile, "Madam, wake up?" "Adults get up early." Song Jin greeted him politely. "Very good, very good." Qin Chi''s words jumped out of the teeth, but he was panicked in his heart. He was still nothing, pretending not to see her alienation blindly, and accompanied her to use breakfast. Then appear in front of the Song family. The atmosphere of the two seemed harmonious, but was too polite. Obviously a husband and wife, not like husband and wife. The elders of the Song family quickly noticed the problem, but they did not show it in person, but they just faded the enthusiasm of Qin Chi. They don''t have to think of Song Jin''s problem, but feel that Song Jin has been wronged in the Qin family over the years. Otherwise, how will such a well -behaved and sensible child be born with her husband? Wait for Qin Chi to go out. Song Erxi came over. I talked to Song Jin for a while. Song Erfang cared about it: "Jin''er and Xianggong''s feelings are good? Erxi doesn''t know how you have passed these years." Song Jin''s eyes were reddish, "okay." In general, she is much better than the imprisoned Song family. She is just not qualified to be emotional and willful. Song Jin knew that the elders cared about her, and then said: "Qin Qi''an and I have been misunderstood by couples." "Yes, I remember that the person in your father was not him." Song Eryi suddenly remembered this problem. Song Jin did not cover up for Song Xiu, and said that she was calculated to replace her relatives. After the marriage of Song Xiu''s marriage, "she was a man, but she raised a room. Bar." The situation of Song Xiu''s side, Song Jin heard some of them after returning. The life was still like that, but he had lived a feathers, but he had not been pregnant with a child for many years, and he was seeking medical treatment. Old Liu and Qin old man said that he had lived separately. The old man Qin had a servant and maid to serve, and his life was very moist. Lao Liu began to make trouble. Since she couldn''t beat the old man Qin, some people later said that she had fallen ill for several times. She was lying on the bed all day. There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book! "You don''t have to follow her after embroidery. The life is her choice. It is also her business." Song Eryi complained about Song Xiu. As soon as the family had something to do, she didn''t want to unite and help, but counted her sister. Song Jin really nodded. In fact, she had long regarded Song Xiu. Song Eryi asked Qin Chi and her question again. Song Jin did not conceal this. He said in 151. At the end, he repressed: "I know he said it was false and divorced, and he knew that he had to have it at the time, but I thought the harmony was very good ..." Speaking of which, she looked at him for a moment. After leaving the Beijing Division, they were chased and killed. In order to protect her and children, the people who had been familiar with fell in front of her one by one. She couldn''t seem to go out and forget it. And the child who missed her, she couldn''t forget. Go back before? Song Jin feels that many things are different. Moreover, Qi Dafei is never a drama. Song Eryi was silent for a long time after learning about the reason. "It is good to stay in Huizhou, anyway, there is us to take care of it. Your second uncle is worried about you and let me come over. He said that no matter what happened, the Song family was your backing. Just go home and talk to the elders, don''t be in our hearts, that is to treat us as a foreigner. " "I will, thank you the second uncle and the second sister." Song Jin was a little moved in his heart, his eyes were slightly warm. "It is we involved you." Song Erxi took a deep breath and pressed down the turbulent and sad. Song Jin shook his head, "No, no affected." Song Erxi stepped forward and hugged Song Jin gently in his arms. She didn''t know how Song Jin had survived over the years, but she was a girl''s house, and she was not reliable. It was not easy to marry someone to think about it. She also wanted to save them. The difficulties in this way, you can guess without having to think about it. Mowing On the same day, Qinjiagou. Song Xiu learned from Qin Ming Song''s mouth that the Song family returned and asked her when she would go to Fucheng. "What did you say? My family found it?" Song Xiu knew that his family was missing, but people came back. No one came to inform her? "I heard that your sister had recovered, and Dalang was at the Song family at this time." Qin Mingsong''s tone was strange when Qin Mingsong raised Qin Chi. Since learning that Li''s and Qin Chi''s bizarre life, his heart regret was about to flood him. This is like a ladder in front of the sky, and he did not catch it. Instead, the affection that was not much was gone. Regret it! The Spring Festival updates are uncertain, covering your face. The author has forgotten that this month is also uncertain ... Chapter 439 Music Chapter 439 Song Xiu stood up sharply. "How dare Song Jin? The family returned such a big thing, but I didn''t send someone to know me. No, I want to go to the city!" Song Xiu''s grievances of Song Jin were very great, and he went out while scolding. Immediately go to Fucheng. With the intention of Qin Mingsong, he wanted to meet Qin Chi, but he couldn''t be too deliberate, and he didn''t want to give people a sense of quick success. Prepare the carriage and prepare to set off. The old Liu''s crutch trembled, and he was unable to ask: "Where is the four children and daughter -in -law?" "Mother is still sick, how did you come out?" Qin Mingsong stepped forward and helped the old Liu family, and carefully returned to the house. "What should I do if the outside is strong and cold again? Raising is the first thing, so don''t let your son worry. " "Okay, my mother knows." Lao Liu heard it for a while, "What she was most proud of her life was to have a good son like Si''er, not only for me, but also filial piety, not like that!" Speaking of this, the old Liu''s tone turned, and began to scold daily. "The second and third child occasionally come to see me. The fox Mei Zi of the family couldn''t help but forget the old lady ... " Qin Mingsong heard a sudden heart. The news on the big house, he just learned that he still talked about Qin Chi. When he said that his mother is now a princess, his elder brother has become a horse master. Rove back to Qinjiagou. He was anxious to meet Qin Chi in Fucheng, and he had not told the news with the second old man. Old Liu is very fast this year. Since the old man Qin found another woman, she seemed to be gone at once. She was more than ten years old. There was a feeling of being a kind of deed. The most worried about this was Qin Mingsong. If Lao Liu died, he needed to keep filial piety for three years. Can''t participate in the imperial examinations within three years. Qin Mingsong thought about it and thought that the big house was also a good thing. The elder brother is now a horse. No matter how much he said, he is also his mother''s son. You may not know that the big house has become a noble in Beijing, and the news will spread soon. " "What do you mean? Si''er said something clearly!" The old Liu''s response was very great, and his eyes were staring at the boss. Qin Mingsong didn''t think much about it, and continued: "The elder sister was Prince Rui before, that is, the eldest daughter of His Majesty today. Now he is the princess. "Bang!" Lao Liu fell straight. In a great surprise, he couldn''t stand it for a while. The joy is easy to be sad. Qin Mingsong''s face changed, "Come on!" Song Xiu was going to go out and waited for Qin Mingsong at the door. As a result, the person did not wait. Instead, the news of the old Liu''s fainted. She quickly asked the servant to invite the uncle. Let people notify the old man Qin. The third uncle is old and walks slowly. After about a minute of an hour, I came over. After I felt the pulse, the third uncle said subtlely: "This, I can''t cure it, and quickly send it to the town''s medical museum." This remark made the old man Qin and Qin Mingsong suddenly changed. He wanted to let the third uncle make some medicine. The third uncle shook his head and asked his grandson to leave with the medicine box. The father and son quickly brought the old Liu to the carriage. This time, the prepared carriage is not to go to Fucheng, but to go to the medical museum in the town. Tossed for a while and arrived at the Medical Pavilion. The doctor who sat in the church shook his head and said: "People who are older, the most sorrowful and happy, the old man is powerless, please come back." "Doctor, please save my mother, how much silver can do it." Essence This worry is really true. Sitting in the hall saw the matter, shook his head and said, "Go back to prepare for the funeral." Qin Mingsong was unwilling to believe that he also went to the town medicine shop with a coma, who was unconscious. Without exception, let them prepare for the future. The old man Qin didn''t want to toss, "Four children, just do your best." The old Liu was going to die. He was not sad, and on the contrary, he was a bit relaxed. For decades, the relationship has long been gone in the trouble, not to mention that the old man Qin does not lack women to serve now, and he has no old Liu''s wife. The fourth child can''t accept it. The old man Qin knows that there will be true feelings, but there should be not many. Old Liu''s death, he will keep filial piety. He will not be able to give up in the coming year. When you see Qin Mingsong, he does not want to give up. There is no notice yet, there are still rebels in the south. As I said that the rebels did not resolve, the imperial examination will not be recovered. " Qin Mingsong was just anxious for a while. Slowly, you can only accept reality. There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book! Take the old Liu''s back to Qinjiagou and start preparing for the future. Qin Mingsong did not forget to let people go to Fucheng to notify Qin Chi, and let Qin Chi come back to see the last side of the old Liu family. Qin Chi returned to the Song family before he was dark. Go back to Song Jin''s courtyard. He came to the door of Song Jin''s bedroom and knocked on the door. "Can your wife talk about? I am very calm and chatter." Qin Chi dared to say that he was very calm now. The kind of terrible kind. After waiting for a long while, the door squeaked and opened. Four eyes are relative, silent for a moment. Song Jin''s sideways silently. This is like a signal that Qin Chi can enter the house. Qin Chi raised his feet to step at the threshold, Song Jin behind him covered the door again, and when Qin Chi walked to the carved round table in the house, Song Jin also came over, picked up the clean tea cup on the table, raised the teapot and poured him down. A cup. "Sit." Song Jin spoke. Qin Chi sat down, picked up the tea cup in front of him, took a sip, "Thank you Mrs.''s tea." Song Jin politely: "You come to find me, what do you want to talk about?" "I want to know what happened to you during this period of time, so that you have changed your attitude towards me?" Qin Chi had to deal with it today, but his head has been struggling with this problem. "How long has this passed? But like a person is wrong, it has been the same for a long time. " "Indeed, something happened." Song Jin didn''t want to say it, "But the reason why I decided to separate from you is not much, mainly because I think the separation is very good, but it is not suitable to be together." "Let''s talk about it in detail?" Qin Chi will not accept this speech. Song Jin sighed slightly, "You are so smart, you won''t think of it." "If we are just unmarried couples, you say that the door is wrong, and the world can understand it. I can understand it. But we have been married for many years, and we have three children. Even the eldest son has been established as the prince. Whether it is suitable or not, it is impossible for us to separate in our lives. " Qin Chi''s voice was gentle, trying to suppress the emotions as much as possible, so as not to scare her, and begged with a bit of pleading: "Is it for the children and go back to Beijing with me?" At this time, Song Jin knew that he thought he was simple. Speak happy New Year''s Eve in advance, and there are, come to the New Year! ~ Chapter 440 Unwilling to let go Chapter 440 Dont let go Qin Chi did not question Song Jin, did not anger her, and did not keep the so -called big man''s self -esteem. He bowed his head and showed weakness! Some husbands and wives encounter a problem with problems and blame each other. Instead, they forget that no matter how deep their love points are, they will dissipate in the quarrels again and again. Initially, Song Jin suddenly proposed to separate. Qin Chi was not angry, but he was more worried about losing his temper. "Master Qin counts people''s hearts." Song Jin has lived with him for many years, "Three words and two words clearly understand the fetters between me and my children. I can''t deny that for a moment, I hesitated, but I knew it with me. As a master, just like twins to change his surname, no one told me in advance. " Qin Chi''s face changed slightly, his lips moved slightly, and eventually did not justify himself. Song Jin still has nothing to do. In this marriage, she thought that she would not owe Qin Chi, but the relationship was never equal. In the eyes of others, she was always his attachment. She didn''t blame this, and the women in the world were so, but she was unwilling. This should not be unwilling. I do nt know when it is because of what it is. Perhaps the previous life has already been there. It is just hidden in the heart, and now it suddenly comes out to make a strange. Qi Dafei is just one reason. After returning to Beijing, it will definitely be trapped in the back house, which is also a reason. But in the final analysis, she was unwilling. Without waiting for Qin Chi to open again, Song Jin took the lead in saying: "Master Qin comes to the south to have official duties. When will I meet the army? I will let the kitchen give you some dry food." "lady" Qin Chi''s eyes were unknown. Song Jin suddenly shifted the topic, obviously he didn''t want to talk about it again. Qin Chi raised his eyes and looked at Song Jin, his voice was slightly dumb: "This time, there is indeed a official duty to leave Beijing, but it is not fake to pick you up here. Madam, you dont have to be so polite and careful in front of me, no matter whether How can I not embarrass you, nor will I embarrass the Song family. Speaking of which, he stabbed his heart for a moment. "I admit that the child''s affairs did not mention it in advance. I was wrong. I thought it would be too late to explain it when it was settled, but after all, I thought too for granted. " At that time, he did think so. He thought she could understand herself. Now that I found out that he was too self -righteous, it was taken for granted. He thought that no matter what he did, she would stand beside him without discarding. And his family and him ignored Song Jin''s opinion. This attitude was deepening to the layer. At this moment, Qin Chi finally understood the crux of the symptoms. Song Jin is going to leave. It is a thoughtful decision. Of course, with Qin Chi''s means, he can forcibly let Song Jin bow his head, and he suppresss this kind of evil thoughts. What he wanted was her willingness. Instead of grievances. "This is my husband''s loss, I''m sorry." When Qin Chi apologized, his eyes still did not leave her. Song Jin looked down and avoided his eyes and touched him, got up and got a gift to Qin Chi. "Master Qin does not have to do so. You have nothing wrong. I hope that you have been in love for many years. "" " Qin Chi held the tea cup''s fingers with blue tendons. He couldn''t force her, he couldn''t bear it. Can''t get angry, this will only farther the person. This is not in a hurry, not in a hurry! Qin Chi stood up and turned to look outside the door. He raised his sleeves in his tightness, calmly and firmly: "The military situation in the south is urgent, I will leave Huizhou tonight. Give you a period of calm for a while, wait for me to return to the triumphant south, and answer me again. " After speaking, he strode out. Song Jin looked up and saw his disappearing back. There was a hint of warehouses and panic in that back. As long as he is unwilling to let go, it is difficult to separate Song Jin to separate. The two of them are disparate today, and they can''t afford it. At this time. Mu Ting appeared at the door, and she looked at Qin Chi, who was walking far away. Song Jin saw that Mu Ting''s eyes were red and his face was not good, so he asked, "What''s wrong? What happened, your face is not good." "Dong family, I heard that Wei Ge had an accident, is it true?" As soon as Mu Ting heard the news, he was frightened to come to Song Jin for testimony. When she saw Song Jin nodded, the hopes in her eyes went out, and gradually became fog. Song Jin''s heart is also sad. Most of the intelligence network organized by Xing Lun was orphan, and Wei Yuan and Mu Ting were orphans. If you want to compensate afterwards, you can''t find anyone. There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book! Mu Ting choked again: "How can this ... Wei Brother ... He ..." When she cried for a while. After wiking the tears, Mu Ting was sad again and asked, "Is the owner who wants to let us collect us, is it true?" "This is the matter, but not now." Song Jin spent a lot of money to build an intelligence network, covering most of the land. These eyeliner''s combat effectiveness is average, but the ability to listen to messages is not bad. The Song family has found it, but his father''s whereabouts are unknown. "When you only find my father, the strongholds in various places will be taken over by Shun''an sent people." This is one of the conditions for Song Jin to invite Qin Chi to send troops. Most of her net worth. Shun''an Commercial Bank Intelligence Network was paved earlier. The things that Song Jin handed over was icing on the cake, but Song Jin''s connections and hands developed in Jianning and Fuzhou, which is currently urgently needed by Qin Chi. Right now Xing Lun is sorting out the list. Before Qin Chi leaves Huizhou, he will give him the list with the secret code of contact, so Mu Ting will have this question. Song Jin added again: "Mu Ting, if you don''t want to go to Shuian, you can continue to follow me." "real?" Mu Ting''s eyes restored a ray of light. "Really, I also need a person. Lou Ruhan and Xiao Liuzi will not leave. Oh, I almost forgot, what about Xiaoyu?" Song Jin left Xiaoyu before leaving. Mu Ting replied: "Xiaoyu follows the master of Xiaolian." This little county master refers to Niuniu. Song Jin remembered a clever and sensible girl, with soft heart, "That''s good, there is a familiar person followed, and I can rest assured." "The Lord of the Little County wants to make an owner." Before Mu Ting returned to Huizhou, she met Niuniu. When she saw Song Jin was interested, she talked about Niuniu''s affairs in Beijing. Painting and calligraphy, as well as the palace, teach the rules of the rules. Speaking of the education, Mu Ting shivered subconsciously. Song Jin frowned. Niuniu is accustomed to it. Will she be tired after learning so many things at once? Immediately she remembered Li''s again, that was a rare and transparent person, and there should be a proportion. Baozi, happy New Year''s Eve! New Year! New Year''s Red and Red Fire! Chapter 441 Nothing Chapter 441 That night, Qin Chi left overnight. When he left, it seemed to avoid Song Jin. So after missed the second day, Qin Mingsong sent the letter to report to the letter. The coming person is a uncle of Qinjiagou. Song Jin was surprised, "Isn''t it fast?" "Yeah, Qin Ju, please and Dalang to go back to see the old man last." "He has official duties, and he left Huizhou overnight yesterday." Song Jin explained the matter. The uncle is also reasonable. "If a person is not there, there is no way. Should Dalang daughter -in -law go back? Some people have already went to Hongcun Town to notify the second and third, but the boss does not know where people are. "They are in Beijing, I''m afraid they can''t keep up." Song Jinshi said. Uncle Uncle couldn''t help it, and asked Song Jin to return to Qinjiagou. At present, and the incident, Song Jin did not have the initiative to say that Qin Chi had never admitted. Song Jin hesitated and went to the second uncle Song. Uncle Song asked Song Jin to go to the Qin family. No matter what, this was decent. Prepare the carriage. The person who reported the letter went back together. At dusk, rush back to Qinjiagou. Old Liu has not breathed. Song Jin went back to the Su Yi and went to the old house. Except for the big house and Saburo, everyone else was in the house. Saburo went to Jingshi at the time. Later, she left and didn''t know his situation. Song Jin stepped into the house. The people inside looked at her together. When Song Xiu saw Song Jin''s excitement, she was about to walk to Song Jin. She was dragged by Qin Mingsong next to Qin Mingsong, and her eyes stopped her movement. Song Xiu glanced at Song Jin and paused again. This small action, Song Jin saw it. It can only be said that Qin Mingsong is powerful, and Song Xiuzhi is also convinced. "Why do you stop me?" Song Xiu asked unknown, but his voice was very small. Qin Mingsong said coldly: "What are you in a hurry?" After speaking, he looked at Song Jin. Song Jinyi was plain, and his face was modified, making her look too ordinary. How do other women think to make herself look good, and she is how she thinks how to cover her appearance. It cannot be denied that Qin Ming was envious of Qin Chi. Famous, gentle and beautiful wife, well -behaved and sensible children, have been occupied by Qin Chi. On the contrary, he is not too smooth. Song Jin walked over and asked the old man Qin: "Uncle Qin, can you be safe?" The old man Qin heard this, and his brows moved. The others were stunned. Qin Mingsong frowned and asked, "What does she mean?" "Has my sister shouted like this always?" Song Xiu was not the first time he heard Song Jin calling his old man, "Don''t you know? I thought you knew." I used to shout in private. It''s now placed on the bright side. When the old man Qin responded, Song Jin greeted others again. Xiao Liu came up and pulled Song Jin''s hand, looked up and down, and cared about: "Dalang''s daughter -in -law, this has not seen it for more than half a year, so I lost so much." Said by Xiao Liu. At this time, everyone realized that Song Jin did lose weight. Last time they saw someone at the beginning of the year, the weather was getting colder today, and their clothes were thicker. If you do nt pay attention, you will not find that people are thin, but Xiao Liu is careful. Song Jinqian laughed: "Lao Eryi was worried." Lin also came over and asked a few words. Qin Mingsong looked behind Song Jin, "Where is Dalang? Haven''t you come yet?" "Unfortunately, he left Huizhou for a long time due to business emergencies. After a day and one night, Uncle Qin, do you want to send someone to chase?" Song Jinhua''s temperature and inquiry to the old man Qin. But who doesn''t know, this is impossible. The old man Qin waved his hand, "No need to do it, the official duties are tight. Just Dalang''s daughter -in -law, I heard that your father and mother -in -law went to the Beijing division, but really?" This is what the uncle who returned from the newspaper said. The reason why Lao Liu was unconscious, Qin Ming Panasonic concealed it subconsciously. If he was known by outsiders, it was because he died of the old Liu family, and his life would be over. Therefore, the old man Qin has not yet known that the big house is not the same as before. Song Jin said vaguely about the situation of the big house, saying that he would write a letter to inform them, "The road is far away, it is impossible to rush back, it can only be notified first, and the situation is based on the situation. Too clear, I received the news of my family and went to find my family. "I can''t keep up, and I can''t keep it." There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book! Xiao Liu''s whereabouts were surprised. "Earlier, Dalang sent someone to pick up his elder brother and grandma. At that time, Dasao said that he didn''t know where to go. When he stabilized, he contacted us. Lin said, "One month, one time." Qin''s second child worried, "Before the Beijing Division had a rebels, it was messy." "It is not easy to have been touched. For example, if you have nt come back to write a family book for such a long time, you will definitely not be able to send it." Qin Laosan still knows the character of his big brother. Others think so too. If you can write a letter, Boss Qin should write. Instead, Qin Mingsong bowed his head and covered the disdain in his eyes. In his heart, Boss Qin seemed to be savvy than anyone else. Even Li''s noble origin was willing to marry him to suffer. How is it possible without snacking? Even the people at home cheated Qin Boss! Qin Mingsong thought like this, but he would not say it. The people who looked down on before were higher than him. Qin Qi''an was nothing. His talent was indeed higher than him. However What? He will marry a wife! Marry a noble daughter as a wife and step by step. In the future, Ronghua is rich and enjoys endless. Song Jin went to see Lao Liu''s. There is spices in the room and suppress the strange taste, but there is still a faint unpleasant smell. Lao Liu was lying on the bed and motionless. A servant woman stayed in front of the bed. Seeing Song Jin coming in, the servant woman got up to salute. Song Jin asked the servant to go out first. There was no one in the house. Song Jin didn''t need to install it. He took out a handkerchief, elegantly covering his mouth and nose, light step by step, approaching the bed step by step. Song Jin sat on the round stool by the bed. After sitting for a while, I saw Lao Liu''s fingers outside. Song Jin pretended to be the old Liu family, and said slowly: "When I heard that people are coma, I may hear others. I dont know if you can hear. Nourishing. I didn''t expect to die so early in my life. After speaking, the old Liu in the bed twitched twice, the movement was not big, and soon stopped. There is a kind of breath. Just then, footsteps came outside. She turned to look at the door. The person who came in in a hurry was Song Xiu. Song Xiu let a beautiful girl stand at the door. Song Jin saw the girl''s face. A very handsome girl, her eyebrows reveal the heroic spirit, which is more than half of her head higher than Song embroidery. The girl found that Song Jin looked at herself, as if in a panic, quickly bowed her head and retreated, and stayed at the door. On the first day of the New Year, New Year and New Year! Congratulations on getting rich, tickets for tickets! ~ Chapter 442 What happened Chapter 442 What happened When Song Xiu came up, he first issued a question: "Song Jin! Are you challenging, let your father come back without looking for me?" "Who gives you this illusion?" Song Jinliang glanced at her. Song Xiu stood upright, and said very firmly: "My father hurts me and my auntie most. This time they come back, not you as a stalk, how can you not tell me? You wait for me, when I have seen my father, I must be sure Tell him that you can only care about yourself in the past few years, and at all, no matter if I die. " "For more than half a year, this is the seriousness of your sturgeon?" Song Kuan taught Song Jin before, and it was a means of settlement. Just go. Song Jin may not understand when he was young. Now they are all three children. What else do nt understand, who is light at a glance. Seeing Song Xiu still want to be indomitable. Song Jin also suppressed the fire and asked, "Since you know that your family is coming, how can you not know that his father is still missing, and Aunt Zhao did not come back?" Hearing the words, Song Xiu Meng''s eyes widened, "How is it possible?! Didn''t you go home?" Song Jin had seen Song Xiu through. The news was passed on in Huizhou Prefecture for several days. As long as you have a mind, you won''t know. Song Xiu just didn''t care. Over the years, she has never cared about her family''s life and death. She just thought about whether she had lived well. She had to pick it out, just looking forward to her unlucky. The breath on Song Xiu was gone, and asked nervously: "How about my father and my aunt?" "Father doesn''t know." Song Jin paused again, "Aunt Zhao is probably gone." "What does it mean?" Song Xiu was dissatisfied with Song Jin, "Less rumors for me, you are vicious for you." Seeing her attitude, Song Jin didn''t want to ignore it. The whereabouts of her father, she was not clear, but Song Xiu''s biological mother Zhao Aunt Zhao. Song Erxi talked to a mouth last time. At that time, they were locked in the cabin. Aunt Zhao cried endlessly. Rushing out of the cabin to jump into the river to find death, dragged away by two five five three rough men. There is no need to describe the end. After that, the Song family had never seen Aunt Zhao again. Song Jin suspected that the dress picked up in the river was her. Song Xiu now has a good look of her aunt Zhao in her memory. The skin is white and tender, her figure is rich, and she walks beautifully, like the fruit of summer, full and seductive. Failure is more than dignified. When Song Jin thought about things, his shoulders were hit by Song Xiu, and then Song Xiu hummed coldly, turned and covered his nose, and twisted his buttocks out. Song Jin was not annoyed. Just watched Song Xiu who went out, and then went out. During the corridor, when she saw Song Xiu''s body, she followed the girl. The maid found that she was angry, as if she was gently coaxing her softly, and until the two master and servants disappeared into the corner, Song Jin took a look. When Mu Ting came behind Song Jin, he whispered: "Does the owner think that girl is a bit strange?" "It feels a bit strange, but I didn''t find something wrong. What was the name of Song Xiu''s previous girl, where did people go?" Song Jin is now a little bit of soldiers. She felt a little violated. Now even Mu Ting said that, he felt more and more problematic, and immediately asked Mu Ting to investigate. After Mu Ting left a small half -minute hour, the person came back with a weird face. "Dong family, the girl was sold, saying that Qin Lingren was just hit. Buy. " It is said that Song Xiu personally went to the county to buy it. I bought it with Hua''er, and there was a rough girl. One was serving in the room, the other was working hard. Song Jin groaned for a moment and instructed: "Let the people in the county check the origin of Huaer." "Okay." Mu Ting hurried away. After Song Jin had seen it, he hadn''t walked to the House of House, and saw Xiao Liu recruited himself. The appearance of Xiao Liu''s gossip, at a glance, is something to say. Song Jin passed without hesitation, and then Xiao Liu pulled Song Jin to her house in Lin''s house. There are only Lin in the house here. Now Qin Laosan will not return to the room. Someone has come to the door. They are all relatives of the Qin family. They came to see the last side of the old Liu family. This custom is located in Huizhou, commonly known as "ending." Wait for the door to cover up. Xiao Liu looked out again with a seam of the door. He obviously didn''t do anything bad. Xiao Liu''s mysteriously said: "How can Dalang''s daughter -in -law know how coma?" "Huh? What happened?" Song Jin was curious. Xiao Liu''s eyes stunned Lin. Lin pursed his lips, looked at the door of his eyes, and whispered: "I accidentally heard the servant woman who said that the two couples had planned to go out. My mother -in -law suddenly came out to stop. She was very emotional at the time, and it fell down. " "Eight percent is what the fourth child said." Little Liu''s mouth, Barabara, also guess, "Isn''t it to ask the mother -in -law to ask for money? We are tired, or there is no uncle who is chic." Song Jin looked at Xiao Liu, who started to get blessing. I didn''t realize it, I didn''t realize that for more than half a year, Xiao Liu''s figure was round again. It was just that Song Jin did not expect that the old Liu''s fall was related to Qin Mingsong, and thought it was quarreling with the old man Qin or Song Xiu. Song Jin found that he was greasy after thinking about it. The uncle Qin family who went to Fucheng sent a letter to Qin Chi when he asked Qin Chi, as if he knew in advance that he was in the Song family. Qin Chi''s whereabouts were not hidden, but it was not an ordinary person to explore. Qin Mingsong may know from other channels. Old Liu suddenly heard that the big house flew Huang Tengda, and his eldest son became a horse. Tianzhao is overjoyed, but don''t you faint? But after all, people are old, and they are still sick, and they are so critical. The three talked for half an hour. A servant woman hurriedly reported to report, saying that the old lady had gone. It didn''t take long for the Qin family to kneel in front of the bed except the old man Qin. How sincere among them, everyone knows. Old Liu is not a pleasure. There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book! There was no her in this family, no matter whether the young and old were relieved, this was finally sent away a scourge, but there were several elders in the village. Everyone should also be installed on the surface. The funeral was not chaired by Song Jin. Song Jin did not expect the day before the old Liu family was out. Qin Chi rushed back. Song Jin saw him in the Lingtang. He was a servant and was calm. He gave the old Liu''s fragrance. When he wanted to worship, he suddenly fainted, or he fell to Song Jin''s side. Song Jin was able to reach out to support people. Just ... it is very expected. Xiao Liu was scared, "Oh, what''s the matter in Dalang?" "Probably ... Sadness is excessive?" Song Jianzhi''s subconscious covered Qin Chi. Lin quickly went outside to call people. Qin Chi fainted in the Lingtang, but he could scare the Qin family and the Qin family, and quickly let Song Jin bring people back to the room, and then ask Qin Chi to ask the doctor. The people who followed, like Qin Baya who came forward, and went out of Qin Chi when he returned to his old house, saying that they came back this time and brought the uncle. Go back to the room. The Qin family is a guest room that makes people take a rest. As a result, Qin Bay directly carried people back to the house in the village in the village, and then invited the young Xiaojing doctor to see Qin Chi. This time Qin Chi left Beijing, not Jing Lao, but his apprentice, Xiao Jing. Song Jin was pushed and followed. Standing in front of the bed, listening to Xiao Jing''s nonsense at the Qin family. The general content was that Qin Chi received a letter from the seriousness of Ai milk. It''s not good, I''m afraid I have to stay in bed for several days. If Song Jin did not know that Qin Chi had no feelings for the old Liu family, it was not that she was sitting in front of the bed. But she didn''t believe it, the Qin family believed it. The Qin family praised Qin Chi''s filial piety one by one. Dr. Xiao Jing also advised: "The patient needs to rest, everyone has to stay in the house, just take care of the lady." "Yes, don''t be blocked here." The second child Qin waved his hand and signaled everyone to disperse. Qin Mingsong watched the people go out one by one, thinking about going out. Since people are back, don''t worry. When he went out, he deliberately noticed that in addition to a well -equipped guard, there was a Jinyi Guard, which added hundreds of people. These people protect the house and do not contact the villagers. Qin Mingsong went back to the old house and whispered: "Dad, I have a big thing to tell you." "What''s the matter?" The old man Qin asked with his eyelids. Qin Mingsong approached his ear and said a few words quickly. The old man Qin''s face changed, and finally it was ecstatic. Under Qin Mingsong''s reminder, he quickly took a deep breath, calmed down the stunned mood, and then asked with a trembling: "Four Er is true? Didn''t you lie to me?" "Dalang is back. When he wakes up, he can ask, and the person he brought back. Most people do not have so many knife guards, as well as Jin Yiwei protection." Qin Mingsong''s voice is difficult to cover up. This time Qin Chi returned to defend a lot, and he appeared in Qinjiagou, and the people in the village had discovered. The old man Qin hurried back and saw that there was a guard around the house around the house, and he couldn''t help dancing. "Hahaha, the wealth of this splash is finally my old Qin family! Hahaha ..." "father!" Qin Mingsong''s face changed his face and quickly stepped forward to hold his old man. This scene was seen by the aunt in the village, and she didn''t say anything, but she wanted to look away. This Qin was not honest. My wife is dead, and I can still be happy. How much will I see the old Liu family? The incident came to the long ears of the Qin family, and he looked at the people in the village to seal. The reputation of the village is related to the problems such as the marriage of each child. For example, since Qin Chi, a person who became an official, the young man in the village would not worry about marrying his daughter -in -law. Only the old man of Qin''s wind was worse. For most of his life, he did not guarantee in his later years, and received a cold heart and cold lung evaluation. Chapter 443 No face to see people Chapter 443 Besides, there are only two left in the house. "No one, don''t install it." Song Jin tried to pull back his left hand and tried it twice without success. Not only that, Qin Chi dragged her down on the bed. He was circled in his arms, and his voice was dumb. The strong fatigue reveals from the sound. After suppressing Song Jin''s wanting to struggle, in fact, in the past few days, she was going to keep the spirit at night, and she was very tired. Forget it, just take the opportunity to rest. As the beneficiary, Song Jin had no pretentiousness, looking for a comfortable sleeping position, he simply fell asleep, so that Qin Chi, who had thought about all kinds of words, had no place to use it. Qin Chi thought he could not sleep. I didn''t expect to hold people in my arms, smelling familiar to the at ease, and entered the dreamland unknowingly. At midnight. Song Jin was awakened by Mu Ting. As soon as she moved, Qin Chi woke up, "Is it the hour?" "Yes, it is the old house to make people come, do you pass?" Song Jin asked. "Go! I rushed back before getting out, just to send A milk for my father." Qin Chi represented the big house and must come forward. Otherwise, you can''t say. At this time, it was not to say that when other things were in other things, Song Jin let people send warm water, twisted the Paizi and handed it to Qin Chi. Qin Chi took the Paizi for a moment. As if back to the past again. Under the urging of Song Jin, Qin Chi finished washing, put on filial piety, and pretended to be in Song Jin''s help. Then toss it. People faint again in front of the grave. No one dares to say what the big house is spread when it spreads, and some people praise Master Qin to the filial piety and compare other people of the Qin family all at once. Qin Mingsong, who is really defending the spirit for seven days, has not splashed the water. One trace. The affairs of the Qin family''s big house have been spread in the upper circle of Huizhou. When they learned that Qin Chi in Qinjiagou in Qin County, some people were not unlimited, but because the Qin family had a good thing to go to the door. The gift was sent, but they were all retreated. Meng Qingrui didn''t have so many scruples. After the door guard notification was notified, the person put the person in. "Knowing that you are sick, I come to see you deliberately." Meng Qingrui entered the door with two packets of snacks, smelling the light medicine smell in the room, and cared for: "Really sick? Isn''t it pretend?" Qin Chi just lifted a bowl to drink medicine, "minor illness." Meng Qingrui just dragged his chair to his bed and looked around for a circle. When he saw no one, he asked: "Mrs. Mrs.? "I am a big man, do you need his wife to take care of it?" Qin Chi''s mouth was hard. Unwilling to admit that Song Jin was unwilling to accompany him. Meng Qingrui asked in a whisper again, "How many days are you going to stay this time?" "I will leave in the next day." Qin Chi does not want to treat more, it is just that the situation is not allowed. "The rebels must be resolved this year. The longer the dragging, the more bad it is to us." "Bring me?" Meng Qingrui said. Qin Chi glanced at him with a glance, "Is this not going to take a subject?" "You know I am not that material." Meng Qingrui passed the name of Xiucai''s good luck. At that time, the master said that he had not accumulated enough and went to have experience. Who knew that he was in the test. Not even a person, you will be ashamed with you. " Qin Chi did not expect this for this. Meng Qingrui died again and was not afraid of boiling water. "But you rose too fast. I won''t follow you anymore. I will wait for you to squeeze in again." Qin Chi couldn''t hear and laugh. These words did not dare to say that they were killed by someone. "Okay, let me believe it to my uncle. If he responds, I will take you away." Qin Chi and Meng Qingrui grew up together. I, I have me to give you a bottom, whether I can mix my head, but also depends on your own ability. Meng Qingrui nodded solemnly. The master led the door and practiced in the individual. What he needs is only an opportunity for exhibitions. Then there is my own achievements, and I will not be suppressed or excluded. There are tens of millions of talents in the world, and there are only a few people who are in the early age. What is the reason? Opportunity! Seize the opportunity to get in the early. Meng Qingrui achieved the purpose, and did not disturb Qin Chi''s rest, and made a timely resignation. Qin Chi let people send Meng Qingrui out. Originally, he did not want to see others on the grounds that he had to see other people, but he knew that he saw Meng Qingrui, the old man Qin and Qin Ming pine the old house hurried over and proposed to see Qin Chi. Qin Baidao: "Son, do you want to go down to send them?" "Don''t, I see Qing Rui, if you don''t see them, you can''t say it. Let them come in, and I want to hear it. What would they say? "" " Qin Chi knew that this could not be avoided. No see at a time, they will come again next time. When the old man Qin stepped into the house, he appeared in a careless look. "How is Dalang? Is the body better?" "It''s much better, there are worried grandfather." Qin Chi deliberately brought a bit of weakness when he spoke. Qin Mingsong followed and said a few words of concern. Once and once, I talked. The old man Qin asked the current situation of the boss Qin. "I haven''t seen the boss for a few months. He often remembers him before his death." The old man Qin thought that this could get closer to the relationship with the big house. I don''t know that Qin Chi listened, but it responded very well. There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book! During his lifetime, he did not see the old Liu family stayed in the big house. It was good to not scold the big house. But this matter can only be thought about it, and it is still necessary to live on the face. Qin Chi explained a few words for his parents, "Earlier father and mother were tired of me, and some people wanted to catch them to threaten me. I just took care of them in Huangshan and took people over. Later I''m afraid to expose the whereabouts of my uncle, it is not easy to disclose it out. ... " "It''s your milk." The old man sighed. Qin Chi pretended to be sentimental. Qin Mingsong said for so long and hadn''t mentioned the topic. I just wanted to open my mouth to say something. Qin Chi first said, "By the way, will the Song family give you a lot of silver every year?" The pupil of the old man Qin shrank. Qin Chi does not give him a chance to think about. "It was not what the Song family said, but I saw you and uncle in the past few years. , I found the source of money. This money came from Song Huaichang. This person did not do things under Song Jin, but Song Jin respectfully had more respect for him. Qin Chi said again: "Grandfather, this money should not be taken. We and the Song family are in -laws. I took this money to treat my uncle and me as a person. In the future, my uncle and I have a face to see people? " The old man Qin was blushed with his old face. Qin Mingsong''s face is not good now. Even if he knew that the old man Qin had been in the same year, he had been affected by the benefit. He got it well from it, but was said in person in person, and he was so unpleasant. He also responded. It is hard to say that Qin Chi was intentional. Because Qin Chi is also one of the parties. Qin Mingsong could only stand on Qin Chi: "This money really can''t get it anymore. The Song family has turned the case, and they are also wronged. Now people have returned to the city. If they get it again, it is my Qin family. Greed. " The old man Qin didn''t want to give up the silver. At the beginning, Yinzi was in response to Song Kuan, and it was his peace of mind. Now, how can he become his fault by his grandson and son? Thinking of a lot of silver, it hurts if there is no. Qin Chi didn''t want to let the old man Qin continue to get money. With that money, he had to face Song Jin without face. Qin Chi knew what the old man Qin was, and said, "Every year, our big house will send the old -age care money to the grandfather, and it will not be less than the Song family." This is his last compromise. With the words Qin Chi, the old man Qin could only take down, lost a lot of money, and annoyed the old man Qin. He didn''t think about letting the big house pick him up to the Beijing teacher to enjoy the blessing. Moreover, Qin Chi''s attitude also showed that he would send pension money. In other words, the big house will not pick him up to Beijing. Besides, it is self -insulting. If Qin Mingsong''s stomach, there is no chance to propose it. During the time they sat, Qin Chi always had such things or that happened, and later there were subordinates to say that they had emergency official duties. So the father and son were decently invited to go out. "Qin Bay, please come over." Qin Chi took the opportunity to see Song Jin. Qin Bayi exited the door, and Qin Chi temporarily changed his mouth. "Wait! Forget it, you tell Mu Ting to let her tell her wife." Song Jin was surprised by the news that the old man Qin would be willing to give up. But this is a good thing for the Song family. When Song Jinxiu''s book was a book to Song Huaichang. Song Huaichang''s reply quickly and gave a gift to the old man Qin, as Xie Li. The old man Qin was sick that night. In the middle of the night, please ask Dr. Xiaojing to see a doctor. Qin Chi knew that the old man Qin had a lot of energy, and he was reluctant to be able to say that he was reluctant. Successfully disgusting Qin! Who doesn''t know, he is tired of Lao Liu? Chapter 444 Dang Wang Ba Chapter 444 Song Jin did not care about the life and death of the old man Qin. But she received a very burst at this time, "Mu Ting, is the news wrong?" Mu Ting shook his head, "Huaer is not a name. He is a surname of Hua. He was an orphan in a Huajia Village in Shili Miles in the county seat. He was sold by his uncle at the age of seven." Song Jin was laughed at, "Remember to eat or not to fight." Dare to run with a man last life. This life is even more powerful. He directly raises the wild man beside him, or under the eyelids of everyone, treat others as a fool. Song Jin now doesn''t want to see Song Xiu at all. Mu Ting raised his hand and made a movement, "Is the Dong family going to this?" Song Jin raised his eyes and glanced at Mu Ting in surprise. "We are good people who abide by the law and abide by the law. "Yes, I want to stop." Mu Ting looked down and confessed. Song Jin cannot keep this hidden danger. As long as Song Xiu still surnames Song a day, it is impossible to clarify the relationship with the Song family. Once Song Xiuqian''s scandal is exposed, Song Jin and Song''s daughters will be affected. It doesn''t matter if Song Xiu elope with people in the previous life. The sisters are orphans outside, and only one Song Jin is involved. This life is different, the Song family is back! After Song Jin groaned, he said: "You go to the embroidery of Song, and you have to bring that flower." Mu Ting should go down and go to do it immediately. Song Xiu didn''t know what Song Jin asked him what he had done in the past. After thinking about it, he should be deserved. So I got up and walked out. Flowers stood still in the corner. Mu Ting, who was standing aside, met and said unexpectedly: "Flowers, as a close -fitting girl, why don''t you keep up?" There is no eyesight. " Generally, Song Xiu went out, and the flowers did not follow, but Mu Ting said that it didn''t seem to be suspicious. Song Xiu just took a few steps, and naturally heard Mu Ting''s words, she frowned, "I dont want her to follow ..." "Being a slave, not serving by the master, what else do you want to come?" Mu Ting is going to drag people. Huaer was busy avoiding, and hurried to Song Xiu. Mu Ting''s posture was that the flowers did not follow, and she had to start a lesson. This time Song Jin returned to Qinjiagou, Song Xiu was the first time to come to the big house, and it felt very regrettable. Keep serious guards outside. Like the high gate, Song Xiu''s footsteps have gone a bit. Song Xiu''s master was brought with Mu Ting, but he was not blocked at the door. He took it directly to the backyard to see Song Jin. There is a pharmaceutical room in the backyard of Song Jin. Meet here to meet here. Song Xiu just arrived at the door and met Song Jin''s cold eyes, and it was startled immediately. He always felt that Song Jin''s eyes today seemed to be in a knife. The feet that entered the threshold turned back again. Song Jin wants to say this courage, how dare to raise a wild man? At this time, Song Jin''s sight fell behind Song Xiu, and the flowers were lowered. "Come in, do you want me to invite you?" Song Xiu went in. Mu Ting stayed outside and looked at the flowers. Huaer has lived in the sister -in -law for many years, and he has been practicing the ability to look at it. He has a bad feeling in his heart. Song Xiu is best to control it, as long as he just follows her. He didn''t say Song Jin from Song Xiu''s mouth before, but there was nothing good. Last time I first met in the old house, Huaer knew that Song Jin was not a good person. Huaer raised his eyes to peep at Mu Ting. Just hitting Mu Ting staring at his eyes, and suddenly his heart jumped again. "Sister Mu, Mu Ting ..." "Wait, don''t say anything." Mu Ting sympathized with his experience, but he would not agree with him as a woman, mixed with a husband with a husband. The two were talking, and Song Xiu screamed suddenly in the house, "... you have less care!" "You can''t!" Song Jin will not condon Song Xiu. Suddenly, Song Xiu was about to vomit. After slowing, she stroked her belly and raised her eyebrows proudly: "I am pregnant, who is unclear. However, with Qin Mingsong''s waste, I can''t think of him, 80 % is my family''s flowers. " Song Jin''s temples jumped, "To me clearly?" "I said that I was in the same time. When I was pregnant, Qin Mingsong just came back." Song Xiu was very proud. When Song Jin saw Song Xiu''s proud expression, the three views kept reorganizing, shattered and reorganized. "Do you see that I will cover you for you?" There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book! "It doesn''t matter, you can''t ask for it if you are unlucky. Who makes us sisters?" Song Xiu easily grasped Song Jin in this matter. "I said my sister, Qin Mingsong also raised the outer room in my last life. Directly avenge you, you have to support me. " Song Jin almost laughed. After thinking about it, it was really interesting. Qin Mingsong was proud of his life, and he became Wang Ba? Song Xiu continued: "Sister knows? Qin Mingsong''s dog, actually promised Bai Cuiwei to have only her in her life, and she can only give him a child. I am strange. Don''t touch the old lady, what do you think of the old lady? Song Jin''s eyelids jumped. Song Xiu''s idea was very rebellious, and she would not want to live if she went out. If Song Jin doesn''t want to boldly with her, he will make a decision: "Give you two options, one is Qin Mingsong, and the other is to send away the fake girl. He is a man''s affairs." "Can I not choose both?" Song Xiu asked. Song Jin was puzzled, "You have no feelings for Qin Mingsong, isn''t it okay to leave him? The one that can be raised with you is justified." Song Xiu rolled his eyes, "I want a child to sit down. Qin Mingsong will be an official in the future. The child is born in the official house. What do I ask for?" What do I ask? " She does not love Qin Mingsong or flowers. Song Jin had nothing to say, for a long time, with a hidden thoughts, she said, "I help you clean up this mess, but people must send it away. It is necessary to forget, and the husband and wife are considered a taboo during the time of the filial piety. "I am pregnant in advance." "You should be fortunate to be pregnant in advance." Song Jin didn''t want to talk more with her anymore. The flower was sent away by Mu Ting. It is said that the family of Huaer came to the door to redeem. On the county seat, Song Jin also made Song Xiu sweeping his tail. In the future, someone will investigate and will not investigate anything. Song Jin''s behavior was dull, and Qin Chi knew it. It wasn''t that Qin Chi intended to arrange people to stare at Song Jin. For example, Qin Chi did not let Qin return, and still protected Song Jin in secret. Qin Chi didn''t want to mention it, but this matter was too burst. "Being Wang Ba? Haha." Qin Chi didn''t know what to say, "Fortunately, it is different, and the relationship with our big house is not much related. But, is that little identity okay?" "After checking, there is no problem. Song Xiu dressed up as a man and went to Nanfeng Pavilion to pick it up. The lady has sent people away, and it is estimated that she has left Huizhou now." Qin Yilian said. The wife is still kind. This situation can only keep secrets. Seeing that Qin Chi didn''t speak, Qin Yi hesitated and said, "Son, see the girl Mu Ting as if she is packing things." Qin Chi looked at him. Chapter 445 Let her fly first Chapter 445 Song Jin asked Mu Ting to prepare and plan to leave Qinjiagou. Qin Chi seemed to be in the breeze. Silently, Duan Fang is clear. When Song Jin entered the house, he found that Mu Ting didn''t know when he would go out. "My wife is leaving?" Qin Chi asked softly. Song Jin gathered, "It''s time to go." Qin Chi''s fair hand raised, as if trying to caress the hair of her hair, and gave up again, switched to covering her lips, coughingly coughed, and coughing her face white. Song Jin thought about it, but naturally got up and gave him a smooth back, and then poured a cup of warm tea. Qin Chi took the tea cup and bowed his head to drink, "Thank you Mrs.." "You have to pay attention to your body." Song Jin didn''t hold back. Qin Chi raised her head slowly, looking at her melancholy, "Is the wife really leaving me?" "Already away, leaving is inevitable." Song Jin cares about his body, but this can''t change her decision. "You know very well that I can''t add color to the Beijing Master to add color, and now it''s good." "Hello, I''m not good at all." Qin Chi is extremely contradictory. He could understand Song Jin''s approach, but he didn''t want to accept it. Song Jin said with patience: "What do you need?" "I think" Qin Chi wanted to say that she asked her to return to herself, but in the face of Song Jin''s calm and frank eyes, he couldn''t say. What Song Jin goes back to face, he didn''t expect, "I want to ask you to leave me, is it changed?" Song Jin stared at him sharply. Qin Chi said expressionlessly: "I''m not questioning you, but Xing Lun always follows you. I can''t be jealous." "No. Qin Chi shallowly hooked the corner of his lips, "You can''t help but leave, as long as you agree, you have to write a letter at least every month, and I will no longer entangle you." Song Jin said calmly: "When it is continuous, it is overwhelmed. You must be promised." "No requirement?" Qin Chi was revealed for a moment, and soon converged again. The tone seemed to be ridiculed. "Even if it is not a husband and wife, our friendship is not fake. What did you write? There are three more children "" More than three ... Song Jin was stunned. However, she heard Qin Chi''s concession. "As long as you write to you, you promise and leave?" Qin Chi nodded bitterly. Song Jin quietly stared at Qin Chi for a while, and found that he was serious, and he gave Qin Chi with a smile: "Master Qin, thank you for the shelter these years." Qin Chi got up and returned to the ceremony. "We have supported each other and take care of each other. Song Jin listened and smiled deeper. They are all understandable, very good. Qin Chi watched Song Jin packed her bag and watched her sit and left. He unknowingly followed the carriage to the village entrance, until the carriage disappeared into the curved mountain road. Qin Ba took a cloak and put on Qin Chi''s shoulder. "Son, cold outside, it''s time to go back." "Let everyone clean up, start a journey after an hour." Qin Chi was no longer fragile on his face at this time, like a sword out of the sheath. Out of the intersection of Qinjiagou. Qin Chi not only saw Meng Qingrui, but also Qin Yi and others returned. "What''s going on?" Qin Chi was stubborn. Qin Yixin''s frightened confession: "Madam let us come back. She said that since it is already out of departure, it should be clearly distinguished." Qin Chi was laughed at, "Are you back like this?" "The subordinates left a few people to protect the wife, and asked the son to forgive the sin." Qin kneeled down and asked for guilty, but he was fortunate to stay with others. Qin Chi''s expression was slightly slowed, "That''s it for the time being, let them hide it. Mo let his wife discover that there are still Qin Qi to raise his injuries and take her out of the dark camp to find her to find the lady." "Yes, the subordinates know." It wasn''t until Qin Chi put down the curtains that Qin Yi was relieved. Will Qin Chi really let go? Just understand that something is too late, and you need to relax. It''s too tight to make her farther away from herself. She is like a kite. She is eager for freedom. Instead of stalemate, it is better to let her fly first. As long as he can hold the line in his hand, no matter how she flys, she will return to him one day. The so -called "line" is a monthly letter. He is not afraid of her flying. The most afraid of her forgotten. There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book! Qin Chi was thinking about things, and completely forgot that there was another person in the carriage. Meng Qingrui''s various speculations in his mind were flying around. Is this a big secret he can know? Good brothers have become famous, but the wife does not want to live with him? Sister -in -law doesn''t want him anymore! Meng Qingrui tried to reduce his sense of existence, but he visited Qin Chi from time to time. Qin Chi warned: "What kind of eyes are you?" "Brother, I, I didn''t hear it right just now." Meng Qingrui lived around Qin Chi, and the curiosity on his face was about to overflow. "This is complicated, let''s talk about it later." Qin Chi was now panicked. Meng Qingrui looked like a cat in his heart, and it felt itchy and wanted to know. But when I saw Qin Chi, I didn''t want to say it. I can only comfort myself, not in a hurry, I will know it sooner or later anyway. And the old house learned that Qin Chi had left. The old man Qin sat in the hospital bed and walked out in a hurry, just encountered Qin Mingsong, who had lost his soul. "People are gone? Really?" The old man Qin asked anxiously. Qin Mingsong said weakly: "I''m gone, no one comes to say to us." "That''s not a filial grandson, I didn''t take me in my eyes." The old man Qin was so angry that he looked at Qin Mingsong again, "What about your business, what should I do?" "Dad, my son doesn''t know." People have left, and Qin Mingsong knows what counting is useless. "I can only wait three years later." The old man Qin wanted Qin Chi to pull his child, "Wait for your elder brother to come back. As long as he receives the letter, he will rush back in the Beijing teacher." The father and son were at the door. Song Xiu, not far away, listened to it. She dumped the handkerchief, and Tingting Ting walked over. "The elder brother is useless to come back. Shouxiao is sure for three years. " Father and son''s face is not good. The old man Qin was about to scold. "vomit!" Song Xiu covered his mouth to vomit. The vomiting was very powerful, as if spitting the bile. The old man Qin saw the light, and quickly asked someone to ask the third uncle to determine that Song Xiu had been pregnant for more than two months. Qin Mingsong did not return to God for a while. The old man Qin lowered again: "You are not young, there are no children under his knees, and I do nt know how unpleasant to say outside. Now the filial piety period will delay for three years. This child comes. For your future If you want to give birth, you will give Lao Tzu again. "" "" "" "" "." "My son understands." Qin Mingsong''s mood was complicated. Chapter 446 Calm Chapter 446 Calm down Song Jin left Qinjiagou and did not go back to the city directly. Instead, I went to the pharmacy to stay temporarily. Yinlong''s family lives in the pharmacy. Before she cleaned up her emotions, Song Jin didn''t want to go back to the capital for a while. Yinlong noticed that Song Jin was in a bad mood. She took good care of her while she stayed in the pharmacy and cooked herbal food for Song Jin every day for only half a month. So he raised Song Jin''s previous thin meat back. Yinlong knew about Song Jin and Li. But I also know about Qinjiagou. The two still lived together, and Yinlong thought that the couple had reconciled, but it seemed that they were not. "Aunt Long doesn''t have to be so careful. If you have anything you want to ask, just ask." Song Jin put down the medicinal herbs in his hand and spoke in a warm voice, "But I still have to say, I''m fine now, really." "I think you''re not good." Every time Yinlong sees the little lady, he feels distressed, "It will be very tiring to live alone in this world." "Why am I alone? Isn''t Aunt Youlong?" Song Jin smiled at Yinlong. Seeing that she could still joke, Yinlong couldn''t help but feel relieved. Song Jin knew what she was worried about, so she spread out and said, "Mr. Qin and I have been together for many years, and finally I have some feelings. This suddenly separates. I can''t help but feel a little overwhelmed, but just told me rationally that this choice is correct. I need some time to adjust my mindset to adapt to my new life. Recovery takes a process. When I stayed in the pharmacy, I would personally use the cannons and roast the medicinal materials myself every day. During the busy process, my mood was still calm and I could often hear the gossip from the outside world, including the fact that Song Xiu was pregnant spread in Qinjiagou. Since he was pregnant before Lao Liu passed away, no one was gossiping. Some people said that Lao Liu was not lucky. When he was alive, he looked forward to holding Qin Juren''s grandson and came only after she left. Song Jin is choosing medicinal materials. Mu Ting was helping around and nagging again, "I just got the news this morning, I don''t know if it''s true or not." "What news?" Song Jin looked up at her. Yin Long smiled beside him and said, "It was probably a great victory for the imperial court. The rebels of the Liu family were defeated. The imperial court took back all the cities they had lost before." "That should be true." Song Jin did not trust the court, but believed in Qin Chi. Qin Chi knew that the Liu family had rebelled a few years ago and should have made plans. People outside only know that the rebels were defeated, but the inside story would not spread at will. In fact, it was just as Song Jin guessed. Qin Chi had made plans in the early years and arranged some good players to lurk among the rebels, and over the years, they rely on their skills step by step. Climb up. Several of them have been involved in the core figures with their military achievements and received orders to assassinate the rebel generals. Almost on the same day. Several generals of the rebel army were either killed or injured on the same day. For a time, the rebels had no leader. The imperial army seized the opportunity and attacked one after another. The people from the imperial court lurking in the city took the opportunity to open the city gate and let the imperial army enter the city, causing the rebels to retreat step by step. During this great victory in the imperial court, Qin Chi''s layout played a crucial role. But these things have not yet been spread, and when the rewards are made on the subject of merits in the future, they will be made public. Song Jin often heard news of wars in the pharmacy, and occasionally heard Qin Chi''s words. In fact, Song Jin did nothing. When she handed over her power to Shun''an Trading Bank, she received a clue about Song Kuan. How credible is it? Song Jin looked at Xing Lun in shock. Xing Lun said again: "Ninety percent is true. When the rebels secretly took Mr. Song to the capital, they encountered a group of masked people ambushing each other when they approached the capital. The news said that the masked people were killed and injured, and they did not succeed in robbing people." Song Jin calculated the time. It was not long after she and her children left the capital. "Did you learn this news from Shun''an?" Song Jin asked in a clever way. Xing Lun nodded affirmatively, "Yes." Some of their subordinates and strongholds were taken by Shun''an. Some of them accidentally asked from Shun''an''s people, and then passed the news back to Jifang and then transferred to Xing Lun. . Song Jin recalled Qin Chi''s abnormality over the past few days. It is very likely that he had received the news from her father but concealed her. Sure enough, he disappointed her after all. He would not have known for so many years that it was her obsession to find her family. He actually concealed such a big thing. . For the first time, Song Jin had a gap in his trust in Qin Chi. Song Jin wants to make sure of one thing, "So, is my father missing in the capital?" "Yes, I heard that Lord Qin has been sending people to search." Xing Lun reported the matter truthfully. Song Jin immediately decided to turn his focus to the capital. After the two discussed, Xing Lun hurriedly left again. At present, many things need to be taken over by Xing Lun. Not to mention the transferred forces, even things that originally belonged to the Song family, Song Jin did not miss it. The situation is not yet determined, only the demand is stable. It doesnt matter if business shrinks. Jifangs biggest income is to use the fleet to run business. No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading! Song Jin and Mu Ting returned to the capital. Lou Ruhan brought people to **** him. On the way, I met some people who were fleeing, dragging them with their mouths, looking numb and skinny. Seeing Song Jin and others'' carriages, someone was ready to go forward and beg. Lou Ruhan and others drew their swords and scared them away. Song Jin lifted a curtain of a car, lifted up a crack, and looked at the people fleeing on the roadside, and felt that the world was in chaos, and the first thing to suffer was the people. "There are too many refugees?" Song Jin remembers that she didn''t see her last time she left the city. Mu Ting said, "It''s time to fight, it should be to escape the war. Now the prefect of Huizhou is fine. When he learned that there was a disaster, he immediately asked the yamen to set up a straw shed in front of the city gate to let the disaster settle, and then boil a hot pot. , barely distributed food. Some families in the city also set up sheds to serve porridge." In the open space in front of the city gate. The straw hut built by the officers receives refugees. There will be doctors coming to check to prevent the plague. Refugees who have registered and are not sick will be registered for them and then go to various villages in Huizhou in time. Everything is orderly and orderly. Song Jin knew that as long as the government did practical things, the people would not have to worry about no way out. Many times, what makes the people most miserable is the corruption and greed of officials, and there is no way to seek help when encountering unfairness. The carriage was parked in front of the door. After some inspection, I successfully entered the city. The car was driving on the street and passing by two pharmacies. When Song Jin accidentally saw it, he was mostly closed. "What''s going on?" Song Jin pointed to the closed door. Mu Ting jumped out of the carriage to inquire, and came back soon, "The boss said that the medicinal materials are short of innocence in the city. It''s not that the medicine shop doesn''t want to open the door, but that there are no medicinal materials, and people who see the doctor can''t catch the medicine." "Go ahead." Turn a street. In the past, because there was no doctor in the hall, the business of Jifang Pharmaceutical Store had always been average and the people who were poor when they were in and out. Today, the Jifang Pharmaceutical Store I saw was like a guest. There was a long queue of people coming to catch the medicine. Chapter 447 Song Jins plan Chapter 447 Song Jins plan Recently, there have been many people with different faces in the city, most of whom come to avoid the war. Many people fell ill after a long journey, and more people were seeking medical treatment and asking for medicine. No wonder it caused a shortage of medicinal materials. It was also because Jifang Pharmaceutical Store had a large inventory, so it was only now that it was still without the price increase. . Song Jin saw that most of the people were excluded. There are also some people outside who are obviously sick but do not seek medical treatment. Because Ji Fang did not have a doctor in the hall. Song Jin withdrew his gaze and ordered Mu Ting: "You ask Lou Ruhan to go and tell the shopkeeper that if the medicinal materials in the shop are not enough, you can transfer them to Yi County and then invite two doctors to the medicine shop to take charge, and give them to the outside for free. I will bear all the expenses for the people to see the doctor." "Okay, boss." Mu Ting responded and went to talk to Lou Ruhan. Lou Ruhan went to the medicine shop to find the shopkeeper and conveyed Song Jin''s meaning. The shopkeeper of the medicine shop was so happy that he thanked him repeatedly and quickly arranged someone to retrieve the medicinal materials. Mu Ting was a little puzzled, "The boss had donated a batch of medicinal materials before, and there were not many inventory in Yi County. If another batch was transferred, the transaction that was negotiated later would not be delivered as scheduled. Compensation is a lot of money. "If the country is unstable, it''s better not to do business." For some businessmen, the country is in turmoil and making money is even more cruel, but this is not her. A gentleman loves money and takes it in a proper way; he treats it in moderation and uses it in moderation. And every man is responsible for the rise and fall of a country. When you can do your best, do your best. Song Jin''s move is based on his conscience. The reputation of Jifang Yishang was completely opened in Huizhou, and the matter of donating grain to the Northwest Army earlier, the words given by the Ming Emperor, etc., were all spread in Huizhou, including Jifang helping the poor people to plant herbs and improve their lives. Good deeds. The boss behind the scenes also surfaced, Song Jin, the daughter of Hui merchant Song Kuan. Who is Song Jin? The mother of the young prince now, the first wife of Lord Qin Qi''an, who is powerful in the court and the country. This incident was widely spread later and is unknown to Song Jin at present. Song Jin, who came back from Yi County, after resting, saw the elders at home telling the situation, and kept lying in the Song family''s study, reading medical classics and copying them. Uncle Song came over. "Why did Qin Qi''an mention me and me?" Song Jin put down the medical book and pinched the slightly swollen temple, "The outside world doesn''t know that he and I are separated, so it''s not surprising that I and him are put together." "Jin''er, this won''t work." Uncle Song said earnestly, "I''ve separated and not made it public. It will be difficult for you to get married." Only the Song family knows about separation. While recuperating, the Song family almost closed their doors to thank the guests. They did not talk about Song Jin and Li, so there was no news of He Li outside. Song Jin knew that the elders were worried, and she was helpless about this, "We don''t need to worry about this matter. When Qin Qian remarries in the capital, the divorce will naturally spread. Then I will no one if I think about it any longer. say what." "You can''t wait for him to marry again, so you can get married." "What about that?" Song Jin asked back. Uncle Song was choked. Song Jin has not considered remarrying yet. She just had no intention of not marrying. Of course, she didn''t mean to keep Qin Chi, but she didn''t know what it would develop in the future. Maybe she would meet someone she wanted to marry again in the future. Uncle Song''s face was a little dark. Song Jin smiled and said, "Second uncle, as the saying goes, the senior official is a senior, and I will marry you first. Where can I put his old face? I am petty, both families have a grudge. possible." "He''s not so stingy, right?" "Others are not stingy, but they are not like our old Song family''s behavior." The family style of the Song family has always been about seeking stability, and Song Jin tried to convince Uncle Song seriously, "The Song family faces Qin Qi''an and faces big ants with ants. Its just like nothing else, and its difficult to settle down in a corner. "I can''t argue with you." Uncle Song Er learned Song Jin''s harsh words, "But Jin''er, can you really let go? This let go is not a man, but a glory and wealth that is so swelling!" Song Jin lifted his eyelids, "Do our Song family care about it?" "Not rare, no rare!" Uncle Song said something against his will. If the Song family had ambitions, they would not have stayed in Huizhou for generations as ordinary medicinal merchants. Dont seek wealth and prosperity, but only seek peace of the children and grandchildren. Uncle Song respects Song Jins meaning, but he doesnt want her to act impulsively. Uncle Two is worried that you will regret it in the future. "I don''t know how I will happen in the future. At least I want to do this now." Song Jin''s attitude regained his seriousness. "Since that''s the case, I won''t persuade you more." Uncle Song looked at the medical book copied by Song Jin, "Do you want Uncle Er to call a few people to help you copy it?" "That''s the best." Song Jinchengqing. No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading! Uncle Song immediately called his followers and asked him to call someone to copy the book. In addition to the medical books from the Song family, some of the other sent by Qin Chi were found out from the Liu family. He knew what Song Jin wanted to do. The Song family suffered a sudden disaster because of medical books. At first, Song Jin rushed to the capital to find someone. After thinking about it carefully, I calmed down again. Several months have passed by Song Kuan''s clues, and Song Jin has not made much use of rushing over. According to the news he received, Qin Chi''s people were almost digging the ground three times, but they still failed to find anyone. Song Jin is going to the capital to find someone. At the same time, I want to seek protection for the family and add some help to the son who becomes the crown prince. Therefore, she wanted to make public the medical classics inherited by the Song family, and even wrote an easy-to-understand medical booklet to spread some common common diseases and treatments so that some poor people can prevent or seek medical treatment. As for minor illnesses, it will lead to major illnesses. Song Jin knew that this matter would be done. It must be a great achievement that has been passed down for generations. Song Jin had this idea, but in fact it was a temporary idea. On the way back, countless refugees outside the city felt compassion for her due to the difficulties in seeking medical treatment. The Song family is very supportive of Song Jin''s approach. The medical classics that Song Jin wants to take away are naturally hand-written versions. Not long after, a few juniors from the Song family came. Sitting in a row, I copied medical books for Song Jin. A few juniors of the Song family copied and gossiped. It was much more lively than when Song Jin copied it alone. "I just heard something before I came to the study." A junior of the Song family said sneakily. The girl copying the book next to her asked, "What''s the matter?" "Yesterday, a major case occurred in a village outside the city. A lord was stabbed by the outer room where he raised him. When the official rushed there, he was bleeding all over the ground, and the person was almost exhausted, tsk tsk." "Is the outer room so arrogant? I dare to give up my mistress." "Hehe, someone recognized it. The outer room said that it was a serious lady from the Bai family. She was a talented woman before. She died of illness a few years ago. Who knew that she had not died and was used as an outer room for someone." "Bai Mansion? Bai Daru''s Mansion?" "Yes, it''s Bai Daru who teaches in Ziyang Academy. This lady from the Bai family is really not particular." The younger generations became more and more excited. Song Jin next to him became a little uncomfortable as he listened. Chapter 448 Letter Chapter 448 Letter Song Jin asked a few questions. After learning the whole story, the expression on my face was hard to describe. Qin Mingsong went to see Bai Cuiwei. Somehow, he started to make a fuss and was slightly stabbed by Bai Cui. Generally speaking, Qin Mingsong cannot make things worse, especially when he was still mourning. But he was seriously injured and unconscious, and the people who served him thought he would report to the official only after he had his life. When Song Jin recalled that the two of them had a stronger relationship than Jin in their previous life, she seemed to have seen a joke. "Why did Bai hurt people?" Song Jin asked the cousin who first told the gossip. The little cousin stood up and raised his hand and said excitedly, "Sister! I really know this. It was the original wife of the sir who was pregnant. Bai asked the man not to keep his promise. The man said that she couldn''t give birth, he Its impossible to be the last one. Bai was excited and grabbed the scissors and stabbed him..." My little cousin said and gestured. It was very eye-catching to see what I saw with my own eyes. A little girl next to me said, "This Bai is a fool. When a man is in love, he has many vows. How many men can there be in the end? Our father also agreed to my mother, but he also took two concubines. Where is the room." Song Jin looked at the girl who was talking. Come on, this is a girl from the cousin''s family. Qin Mingsong must have made some promises to Bai Cuiwei. Since Bai Cuiwei''s arm was disabled and unable to get pregnant, she later had a very ugly fight with Song Xiu. Bai Cuiwei, who had a strong sense of self-esteem, became more and more biased in her temperament. Bai Cuiwei probably hated Qin Mingsong. Just as he was talking about this gossip, someone actually came from the government office. Mu Ting hurried over and said, "It was the prefect who learned that you were in the Song family, so he sent someone to inform me." Come here to inform Song Jin in detail. Song Jin is speechless in capital letters. "Give me a reward to report the letter. Mu Ting, take someone to the yamen to handle it. If you need a doctor, please send someone to Qinjiagou to inform me." Song Jin didn''t want to cover up for Qin Mingsong at all. Mu Ting responded happily and left quickly. The group of juniors in the study were very quiet at this time, and they were hunching their brains and writing quickly as if they were pretending to be. They didn''t expect to tell a gossip, but they actually talked about their relatives, and they didn''t expect that the son would be the man Song Xiu married. Song Jin glanced at the few people. The little cousin hesitated and stood up, "Sister, I''m sorry, I don''t know that he is my second brother-in-law." "It is not an exaggeration for those who don''t know." Song Jin had no intention of blaming him. The Song family has been back for so long, but Song Xiu has never come back, and Qin Mingsong has never been there, and the etiquette is just like that. You should know that Qin Chi''s busy man has officially visited him once, and there is no one in the Song family who doesn''t know him. There is really no comparison, and Qin Chi can''t show it. Song Jin left the study. Go back to the yard where you live. I saw an extra wardrobe in the house. "Who sent this?" Song Jin asked, pointing to the box. The maid who served came over and said respectfully, "Miss, the things were sent by Mr. Qin. The second master said he would send them to your yard. Mr. Qin also gave gifts to Mr. Qin and the others." Song Jin looked at the box and felt complicated. He waved his hand and signaled the maid to retreat. The man walked to the box and opened the lid. It''s a white fox cloak. The cloak is made of a large red feathered veil and white fox leather, and the fabric is extremely precious. Feather yarn is woven from bird feathers and is a tribute from other countries. It is extremely rare and expensive. Song Jin picked up the cloak. I saw a letter at the bottom of the box. Qin Qi''an wrote a letter to Jin''er as if he was like face: It is the middle of winter, the cold wind is cold and everything witheres, but my thoughts are like the undefeated spring flowers. Now the special envoy sent a fox fur cloak. This cloak has a soft texture and is extremely warm. I hope you can wear it to protect the severe cold of winter, just like my wish, always accompany you, even though you are far away from thousands of mountains and thousands of waters. , but the affection does not diminish. May you see things as you see people and you can understand my profound meaning. When the book reaches this point, I can''t help myself. I hope you can give me a letter when you have time to comfort my longing. I must look forward to it and wait for the good news. May you take care of yourself and be well. I pray to rest as I bow again. The date of the letter is followed. This letter seems to be longing for love, so it is better to remind her that a month has passed and it is time to write to him. Immediately, Song Jin polished ink and compiled a letter. The rough content was that she received news of Song''s father missing in the capital and asked Qin Chi for verification. Finally, I wrote that I wish you a triumphant return and glory. Just a few words, simple and straightforward. Song Jin pasted the envelope and wanted to ask Mu Ting to send it to Shun''an Trading Company, but she remembered that Mu Ting had gone to the yamen. In the evening, Mu Ting came back and told him, "Boss, Juren Qin doesn''t look good. He is in a coma with a high fever. Bai Cuiwei committed suicide by hitting a wall in prison last night." "Can Bai Mansion come forward?" There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book! Song Jin has an average impression of Baifu. Mu Ting replied: "The Bai family does not recognize Bai Cuiwei''s identity. He said that a person died of illness a few years ago, either he looked a little similar or the Bai family girl. He warned some people not to spread rumors. What''s wrong, someone really believed Bai. The house is a lie." Bai Cuiwei is thin and haggard now, a little crazy and old-fashioned. Compared with the elegant and quiet beauty in the past, she can only see a little similar. She said that she is not the same person, but someone believes it. Mu Ting asked again: "Ju Ren Qin is seriously injured. How should the boss arrange him?" "Have the Qin family not come forward yet?" Song Jin didn''t want to get involved in this matter, mainly because he was disgusting. Mu Ting said again, "I guess I''m on the way to Fucheng. As I said, Qin Juren is really. He came to Fucheng to see the outer room during his mourning period." "Did I remember that the Bai family was in Yi County?" Song Jin had not paid attention to Bai Cuiwei''s movements for a long time. "Maybe it''s because I stayed in Yi County and wanted to live a peaceful life?" Mu Ting had heard of the gossip between Song Xiu and Bai''s family, "living in a village outside the city. As long as people don''t go out, they are not afraid that others will gossip. In different counties, there is no need to worry about Song Xiu coming to find trouble. In the end, Song Jin did not come forward. But for the sake of the Qin family''s big house, she still invited Uncle Song to come forward and invited the doctor with the best medical skills in the city to treat Qin Mingsong, and then placed the person in a different courtyard. Qin Mingsong''s situation is more than just bad. People have high fever, and they are critically ill. The yamen asked the doctor who asked me that even if I could survive by chance, it would be a medicine jar in the future. Uncle Song Er used the best medicinal herbs and the "rejuvenation" prescription for him, and then he barely pulled the person back from the gates of hell. That night, the Qin family arrived. Old Man Qin, his two sons, and several uncles in the clan. The group rushed over overnight and came over in turmoil. Uncle Song and his uncle came forward to entertain him. In terms of food and housing, we are very etiquette. It makes the Qin family feel very good about the Song family. When Qin Mingsong woke up and learned that the government had alarmed, he almost fainted in shame and anger. Later, he learned that Bai Cuiwei committed suicide in the prison. He was so excited that his eyes turned dark and he was unconscious. The Qin family hurried to find the doctor. The doctor criticized the Qin family for not making the patient too excited. Old Man Qin answered again and again. Thinking about what happened outside, I still hide it a little. But what should have been said just now? Qin Mingsong was unconscious for another day and night. After waking up, he became taciturn. It took him a long time to ask the Qin family to buy a coffin, and asked someone to go to the yamen to collect Bai Cuiwei''s body and buried him at the foot of a mountain outside the city. . There is no funeral, it is better to throw away the body and bury the mass grave. Bai Cuiwei''s husband favored him in his previous life, and his children and grandchildren were full of wealth. He had a lifetime of luxury and wealth, but this life was insignificant and ended in a hurry. Its just that the situation is unpredictable and the world is unpredictable. The vastness and dust are ruthless years. The author caught a cold again and felt uncomfortable. I have been hit twice in less than a month. The treasures usually pay attention when going out, and it is best to wear masks. Chapter 449 The big house returns to Huizhou Chapter 449 The big house returns to Huizhou After this incident, Qin Mingsong''s future was completely destroyed. A few days later, he was in a little health and asked to go home. Old Man Qin wanted to wait for him to come back soon, but he couldn''t resist his persistence. Uncle Song Er arranged for someone to **** Qin Mingsong and others back, and also gave some gifts, including medicinal materials and expensive supplements. Hearing the younger generation who copied books talked, he said that Qin Mingsong was very unexpected. He fainted when he woke up at first, but he quickly accepted the reality. He also said that if they had encountered such a thing, they would have been I made a big fuss in search of death. After hearing this, Song Jin felt that it made some sense. When the Qin family left the city, Song Jin also went to see her off. Qin Mingsong was carried onto a carriage by Qin Lao Er. Before getting on the carriage, he glanced in Song Jin''s direction. Song Jin did not approach the carriage, but stood on the steps in front of the door. As my cousin and the others talked about, Qin Mingsong looked unusually calm, but if he wanted to leave the city, there would be almost no intersection in the future, and Song Jin would not have it. What you want to explore. Wait until the Qin family leaves by carriage. Song Jin and Song Er''s uncle took a car home together. Just returned to the Song family. At the gate, Song Jin met Qin Qi with a bag on his back. Song Jin invited someone to enter the house. Qin Qi saluted respectfully, "A Qi has seen his wife." "No need to call your wife, I''m separated from your young master. I''ll tell Mu Ting that my boss or Mrs. Song." Song Jin didn''t know what Qin Qi wanted to find, so he glanced at the bag she was carrying, " By the way, are you okay with me when you come here? "I am here to defect to my husband... I am seeking your favor, please take it in." Qin Qi directly pulled Qin Chi out of secret guard and told her to come to Song Jin for a calm message. This attitude is very sincere, showing that she will be Song Jin''s person in the future and will only obey Song Jin''s orders. After careful consideration, Song Jin still agreed. She and Qin Chi were separated peacefully. Instead of accepting the person he sent, she seemed petty. Perhaps he also calculated that she was sober, even if he knew that he had sent someone on purpose, he would still choose to keep him. Song Jin called Mu Ting to take Qin Qi down to settle the house. Before Qin Qi left, he told Song Jin that the eldest son of Qin and Li, who is now named the eldest princess, received the mourning and then set off to return to Huizhou, where the three children live in the palace. Calculate the time and you should go to Huizhou. Besides, Mu Ting took Qin Qi to the room next to her and helped Qin Qi clean the room. Mu Ting asked with concern: "Sister Aqi, has your injuries been healed?" "alright." Qin Qi thought about it and said, "It''s just that it''s difficult to return to the best state before. Now, I''m here to surrender to my wife." "The boss and Lord Qin have divorced each other. Don''t call him Madam again in the future, Madam will be unhappy." Mu Ting mentioned. Qin Qi felt sorry for the young master. Her words just now were just a test. From Song Jin''s attitude, we can see that separation is not a false thing, but a real separation from the young master. Qin Qi said with emotion again: "The two masters suddenly separated, very suddenly. In the past, husband... the boss got along well with Lord Qin, and he had never blushed. Anyone who saw him was a loving couple who supported each other. I I thought they would be with me until old age. "No, things are unpredictable." When Mu Ting said this, her eyes were dazed, "The boss is not doing easy." "What do you say?" Qin Qi asked interested. Mu Ting was about to open her mouth and say something, but then stopped, "Anyway, our boss has always been a kind-hearted and gentle master. If life wasn''t enough, how could he be divorced?" "Is that true? Is there something wrong?" Qin Qi realized something was wrong, but Mu Ting kept silent. Then Qin Qi said in a gossipy tone, "You came back to Huizhou early, and I don''t know that there are many noble girls in the capital who are trying to make a fuss." Mu Ting was tidying up the bedding, but when she heard this, her eyes lit up, "Is there anything else?" "Well, some people are afraid of the young master''s methods. He didn''t show it much when he was in Beijing. After he left, some noble ladies frequently asked for a meeting or invited the eldest princess. They always brought the best girl in the family with them. Qin Qi told Mu Ting about the recent situation in the capital. Mu Ting was stunned when she heard this, "Is this a lady from a family rushing to be her second wife? Oh, this is a knife cutting her butt, and she opened her eyes." Qin Qi''s mouth twitched. No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading! Not worried, but shocked? She originally wanted these words to be heard in Song Jin''s ears, which made Song Jin feel a little crisis-conscious. Qin Qi felt powerless, "Aren''t you worried about your boss? The boss said that if you give up, you would give up the good marriage like the young master, and would be willing to give up the opportunity to the woman next to you. You should know that the young master is young and has a noble status. If you marry again He will inevitably be a noble girl from a noble family. At that time, the second wife will have children again. It is hard to say that the status of the first three children will not be threatened." This is not without examples. Qin Qi''s original intention was to think about Song Jin. After Qin Qi said this, Mu Ting finally realized this problem, and then she said, "Can you think of it, how could you not think of it with the intelligence of your boss?" Qin Qi was stunned, "You are right." Qin Qi thought that someone was tempted. It was after Qin Chi left Beijing. In fact, this sign occurred after the new emperor ascended the throne. People often whispered in the ears of Qin Chi and his elders, hoping to send all their daughters to Qin Chi. the mansion. Qin Chi took the initiative to leave Beijing, which also meant to avoid the limelight. Mu Ting left Qin Qi and went back to meet Song Jin. He repeated what Qin Qi said to Song Jin without missing a word. Song Jin was silent for a long time after hearing this. "If a man among the nobles wants to marry again, how many original wives can stop him?" Song Jin''s eyes were a little confused. He looked at the sky outside the window and was thinking about something. After a long pause, she spoke quietly again. , "What''s more, Qin Qi can see the child''s problem clearly, and he is worried about it. If Qin Qian is a kind father, these should be considered by him, not me." In this world, the couple is separated, and the children must follow their husband''s family. Women have no right to consider their children''s future, and at most they should give some care in life. Song Jin could only try to do something for the child. It''s her mother''s wish. In fact, these are also limited. After Mu Ting left, Song Jin sat alone in front of the lamp until late at night. Two days later. A group of officers and soldiers came to the Song family with more than a dozen large boxes, pointing out that it was something the eldest princess gave to her in-laws. After seeing off the officers and soldiers, Song Jin and others opened the box. All are rare and precious things. From the attitude of the officers and soldiers coming, there are also things they gave. It can be guessed that Li is very likely not aware of the matter of Heli. The things he gave to the Song family have the intention of making faces for Song Jin, indicating that she is at her husband''s house. Very highly valued. Song Jin felt a little guilty. Among the Qin family, the person she didn''t want to face the least was Li. After several years of marriage, Li has treated Song Jin very well and can be said to be a rare good mother-in-law in the world. Chapter 450 Letters again Chapter 450 Letters "Jin''er, are you going to return these?" Uncle Song also saw it. Song Jin shook his head, "No need, it''s better to turn against me if you go back and make a fuss. The most important family of powerful people is face." "Then I''ll send it back if I find the same value in the future." "Uncle Second thoughtful." Song Jin thinks this is a good deal. Uncle Song said earnestly again: "It''s just Jin''er, the eldest princess and the prince-consin are in Huizhou. No matter how you and Lord Qin are, you should go to pay homage according to etiquette." "Jin''er understands." Song Jin responded in a complicated mood. Uncle Song Er did not propose to go with him. Boss Qin and Li came back to worship the deceased. Song Jin, the "daughter-in-law", would not say anything outsiders would not say. The Song family rushed over to visit, and it was inevitable that they would cause gossip. Song Jin asked his family to help copy medical books, and simply packed up his things and went to Yi County. Arrived in Yi County. Song Jin went to the pharmacy to rest for one night. The next morning, I went out and changed into plain clothes, which means I didnt wear any extra jewelry, but just a wooden hairpin, with a covered makeup, and brought the gifts prepared by Uncle Song Er and Yinlong. Before getting on the carriage. Song Jin felt a little more emotion in his heart. Not long ago, she thought she would never come to Qinjiagou again in this life. Who knew it would be coming again so soon. The carriage was parked in front of the Qin family''s house in the village. The person has not yet left the carriage. Someone outside asked for a meeting, saying that Qin Chi had an urgent letter to Song. Song Jin lifted the curtain. I saw the man handed over a very small bamboo tube. Song Jin knew that it was usually a small bamboo tube tied to the legs of a carrier pigeon and used to hold a letter. Song Jin took out a rolled note from the hollow of the small bamboo tube. There are dense and small words on the note. It is not difficult to see that the familiar font is written by Qin Chi. The general meaning above was to explain Song Jin about Songs father. He was calm and honest at the beginning, Helian Kai and Yan Jiangnan wanted to use this to threaten him. He wanted to save people several times, but he returned in vain. The situation in the capital has settled, and the whereabouts of Songs father are still unknown. In the letter, Qin Chi apologized for the past concealment, not asking for her understanding, but only hoped that she would not hate him. Finally, he said that Li was in bad condition and hoped that Song Jin would not discuss the separation in front of Li. Avoid irritation to Li''s family. When he returns, he will explain to Li. Song Jin lowered his eyeshadow and was thinking about something, but he slowly rolled up the paper slip, stuffed it back into the small bamboo tube, and then put it in the sleeve bag. Step out of the carriage as if nothing had happened. The movements seemed ordinary, but actually got off the car gracefully. The officers and soldiers guarding outside saw Song Jin coming, and a nanny who had originally wanted to block it, came up to salute Song Jin, and then led her to see Li in person. "Jin''er is back?" Li stepped out of the room, happily stretched out his hand to Song Jin, holding Song Jin who was about to bow when he saw someone, "Your family doesn''t need to be too polite, just be like before." Only then did Song Jin notice Li. Li''s clothes are simple. Even simple is not comparable to the past, and the material of the clothes is excellent. Song Jin wanted to open his mouth and called someone, but closed his mouth again. Li did not notice her strangeness, took her back to the house, and sent the person she served, so he started chatting with Song Jin. It''s two or three days to come back. When they came back, they went to worship Lao Liu. Li said that she wanted to leave, but she thought that Song Jin might come back, so she stayed for two more days, "Living here, the most impatient thing is to deal with the old house. After your father-in-law came back, he had never felt relieved. Every day He was called to the fourth room by his father, and he wanted to go to the capital with us and ask your father-in-law to support him in his old age." "He thought beautifully." Song Jin didn''t expect that Old Man Qin was so shameless, "With a letter to split the family, you just need to let your father-in-law pretend to be stupid." "Hahaha, our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law want to go together." This is how Li asked her husband to fool Old Man Qin. "When Chi''er was a child, life was so difficult, and she didn''t see two old men working together." Not only is there no help. She also has to take half of her hard-earned money. No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading! At that time, I urgently needed money to treat my son, which shows how much Li hated Lao Liu. The night when Li learned that Old Liu died, she became drunk as an exception. Others thought she was sad, but only she knew that she was happy. This time I came back with my husband, just to say goodbye to the past, because after leaving this time, she will not come again for the rest of her life. Perhaps Li was really happy. He kept holding Song Jin''s hand, venting like this, telling the various biases of the two elders of the Qin family over the years. Song Jinhui held Li''s hand. Not only are ordinary people living a difficult life, but they are obviously noble, but they still have no choice but to have a hard life. "Now you finally have the hardships and the sweetness." Song Jin''s voice gently comforted her. In fact, Song Jin''s heart is a little erratic now. When she came here, she thought about divorce. After letting Li know, she would probably be angry and troubled by Li. After all, no matter how good a mother-in-law is to her daughter-in-law, she can never beat her son. She never expected it. I just arrived here and I had to listen to Li''s complaints. In the past so many years, Li has never told Song Jin about this. Now that Li has restored his identity, it is different from the past. It should be more taboo to the past. Li told her like this, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that she had a good relationship. This also indirectly shows that Li regards Song Jin as his family and is a trustworthy person. This made Song Jinxin feel ashamed. I wanted to talk about He Li several times, but then I remembered that Qin Chi mentioned in his letter that Li was in poor health, so I could only swallow the words back. Li suddenly changed his voice and mentioned the Song family, "Your family is back, how are you all?" "It''s OK." Song Jin lowered his head slightly, closed his eyes and said softly, "Only my father''s whereabouts are unknown. There are clues that he disappeared in the capital this year." "Oh, that''s it. When I go back, I''ll ask someone to ask for you." Li said immediately. Then Li said a few more words to comfort her. When Song Jin was chatting, he mentioned the refugees in Huizhou, and then said that he wanted to donate the medical books he collected from his family. "I want to print the medical books heirlooms of the Song family to spread them from all directions. I asked an old doctor with excellent medical skills to write a book. The medical book of ordinary diseases allows ordinary people to prevent certain diseases, or they can have a way to save themselves if they are sick..." "Your idea is great!" Li''s smile on his face was soft, "If you encounter difficulties, come and find me." "Thank you for your support." Song Jin stood up gratefully and saluted Li respectfully. Li giggled with joy and laughed at Song Jin, "Your child suddenly became so polite, so it was so uncomfortable." Song Jin added seriously: "The people are the people who benefit the world. Thank you for your noble righteousness." Hahaha This move made Li happy again. It was Song Jin, the daughter-in-law who was funny, but she didn''t know that Song Jin was saying something with twelve points of sincerity. Chapter 451 Atsushi Chapter 451: Honest The road to the capital was again after the end of the year. Song Jin left with Li. On the day of leaving, all the old and young Qinjiagou came to see him off at the entrance of the village. "Boss, Song Xiu wants to see you." Qin Qi''s voice rang outside the carriage. Song Jin frowned slightly, "What do she want to see me?" He lifted the curtain and saw Song Xiu blocked by the officers and soldiers. Song Xiu was wearing a cotton suit, and there was no obvious bulge on her abdomen yet, but her face became much haggard. Previously, Old Liu passed away, but Song Xiu was not seen in this way, as if someone had sucked the **** and blood, with a rosy face. All are gone. "elder sister!" Song Xiu found that Song Jin raised the curtain of the car and waved at her anxiously. Song Jin didn''t want to pay attention to her. But now that Song Xiu shouted, many people looked at him. Song Jin asked the team to go first and got off the carriage and went to see Song Xiu. The two walked away from the crowd. "Sister! Please help me once!" Song Xiu was about to kneel down when he stepped forward. Song Jin grabbed her shoulder and said, "Stand up for me, no one can see what he says here, not that no one can see it." "I can''t live anymore." Song Xiu started crying while saying that, compared to his pretentiousness, this time he cried much more sincerely than before, "Qin Mingsong has become a waste. What will I do with my children in the future? Woo... Why is my life so miserable? ! Song Jin looked at Song Xiu quietly and cried. It may be soft-hearted if you change someone. Only Song Jin''s heart was unchanged, as if he was a heart of iron. Qin Mingsong suddenly became a useless person, which made Song Xius hope of becoming an official wife fail. During this period, I often heard that she lost her temper at home, and even Old Man Qin wanted to avoid her. Three years ago, Qin Mingsong failed the exam. Song Xiu was so angry that he vomited blood, but in the end he did not cut off hope. At least Qin Mingsong is still a juren. Compared with most scholars, there is still a bright future. This time it was different. Qin Mingsong not only caused a big scandal, but luckily saving his fame was already the prefect of the Qin family''s grandfather, but his body was really ruined, and it was impossible to enter the court and become an official again. I can only be a sick person in the future. Song Xiu didn''t want to marry Qin Chi, but just disliked him as a sick man. Who knew that he was destined to marry a sick man after going around in circles. Song Xiu cried for a long time. As he cried, he found that Song Jin was not moved at all, and he didn''t even say a word of comfort. "Sister, please take me away?" Song Xiu looked at Song Jin with hope, wanting to grab Song Jin''s wrist, but Song Jin avoided it in time, "I used to be wrong, I took it upon myself, I knew I was wrong, I forgive me once, okay?" "not good!" Song Jin refused decisively, "No matter what your intentions are, I will die as soon as possible. I will not help you, nor will I help you." Turning around, Song Jin was about to leave. Suddenly, Song Xiu said in a lost voice: "Qin Mingsong wants to kill me, I will die if I stay here!" Suddenly, Song Jin paused, "How do you know he wants to kill you?" "He looked at me terrible." When Song Xiu spoke, his voice trembled a little, "Sister, please help me this time, the last time! I won''t bother you again in the future." "Qin Chi and I are separated, do you want to separate too?" "I, I..." Song Xiu was stunned. How is that possible? Have you separated? Song Jin said calmly again: "You don''t have to worry about the wealth of the capital, because I gave up, and the Song family will not move to the capital. It won''t work to make you a superior way through my relationship." "Why are you so stupid!" Song Xiu''s voice was sharp, and she was even more angry than Song Jin. After saying it, Song Xiu realized that he had lost his composure, "I don''t mean to scold you, I just, just..." "Good life is not given by others, but by yourself. Song Xiu, who has lived for two lifetimes, still doesn''t understand this principle?" Song Jin''s eyes fell on Song Xiu''s lower abdomen. This time she stood patiently with Song Xiu. Some of the reasons is because of this unborn child. She didn''t want Song Xiu to continue to act evil and lost the child. Song Jin continued to calmly say, "Think about the child you finally got pregnant, don''t make trouble anymore. If you think Qin Mingsong will be unfavorable to you, you can live with him or leave him." Its not that she looks down on Qin Mingsong. It was Qin Mingsong''s injury, and he wouldn''t get out of bed in less than half a year. In this case, if you dont believe that when Song Xiu is suspicious, Qin Mingsong can still make plans. When it comes to cruelty, no one can compare to Song Xiu. Song Jin took out several hundred taels of silver notes on her body, stuffed them into Song Xiu''s hand, and turned around and left. Song Xiu reacted and wanted to chase him, but was blocked by Qin Qi. "Song Jin! Stop it!" Song Xiu shouted loudly. Song Jin did not look back this time. When I reached the entrance of the village, I found that the team had only walked a short distance and stopped in front of me. Mu Ting whispered to Song Jin, saying that Li asked the team to stop. A nanny came to invite Song Jin. Boss Qin was driven to ride alone in a carriage. Song Jin got on the luxurious car where Li was. Li reached out and pulled her to sit down, "What did your **** sister ask you for?" "I said that life can''t last and I want me to take her away, but I refused." Song Jin did not hide it, and said with a slightly bitter smile, "She is still pregnant. She dares to follow me, and I don''t dare to do it either. bring." No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading! "Fortunately, you didn''t agree." When Li mentioned Song Xiu, it was hard to describe it. "The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change." Song Jin smiled and agreed very much. At the intersection halfway, he saw Magistrate Meng and others coming to see him off, but Li did not come forward. The person who came forward was the prince-consort of Boss Qin. Song Jin opened his eyes. When he looked at the honest man before, he was not at all afraid of standing in front of these officials, and he talked and laughed and asked openly and naturally. It would be impossible for Boss Qin to raise a son like Qin Chi. You have to pass through She County to leave Huizhou. The large team spent the night in She County. Because the team did not enter the city. Uncle Song Er sent Song Jin''s luggage over, and the gifts prepared by the Song family for the three children were packed in five carriages, including two large boxes of hand-written versions of medical classics. Song Jin met Song Ershu in private. Song Xiu said that Qin Mingsong wanted to kill her, but Song Jin didn''t believe it, but he didn''t ignore it, so he told Song Er''s uncle about it. Uncle Song said he would pay attention. It was still safe on the way back to Beijing. It was Li who was infected with wind and cold in the middle and rested for several days. The rest of the time was fine. Song Jin sent a letter to Qin Chi as agreed. She originally thought there would be nothing to say, but she wrote a thick letter, starting with Qin Mingsong''s scandal, and then to Song Xiu, saying that Qin Mingsong wanted to kill her. Then he mentioned that his parents returned to their hometown to worship, his father was entangled by old man Qin, and that Li was sick on his way back. Describe one thing after another. Before I knew it, I used a few pieces of letter paper. Many days later, Qin Chi was very surprised when he received the letter. The last thin letter made his heart feel cold. Suddenly, a thick letter came, and he couldn''t wait to open it and read it. However, he saw it from beginning to end, but he didn''t find a word of concern for him. "Young Master won''t reply?" Qin Ba saw the master put away the letter and saw that the young master looked strange, so he asked tentatively, "...Do you want to grind the ink for you?" "I won''t go back." Qin Chi read the letter again without giving up, "Qin Ba, how did you say that the wife wrote such a thick letter? She didn''t care about me?" "Maybe the lady forgot?" Qin Ba said blankly. These words made Qin Chi''s face darker, "Get out." No matter how slow Qin Ba was, he realized that he had said the wrong thing and wanted to cry. Hearing this, he quickly bowed and walked out. Qin Batou retreated to the door. "stop!" Qin Chi called Qin Ba again and said in a cool tone: "Go and pass the message and let General Pei Xin conquer Jianning within half a month." "yes!" Qin Ba should be serious and leave quickly. The old Huo, who was guarding the door, glanced at Qin Ba''s back suspiciously for several times, then smiled and said to the guard beside him, "Why does Qin Ba seem to be chasing a ghost behind him?" "Maybe there is something urgent." The guard replied dispensable. Song Jin still didn''t know a letter, which accelerated the defeat of the Jianning rebels. Chapter 452 Rules are determined by those who are su Chapter 452 Rules are determined by those who are superior The group finally arrived at the capital. Li asked, "Jin''er, do you want to go to my princess''s mansion first, or the prince''s mansion?" "County Prince''s Mansion?" Song Jin was stunned. Li explained: "It is Qi''an and your residence. Qi''an was named Prince An. He said that the gift of the title would be suspended and he wanted to wait for you to come back." The enthronement of the county princes has a regular ceremony, presided over by officials above the fifth rank. During the enthronement, the county princes will be given gold book and gold treasure. Qin Chi delayed the gift of the title and left the capital south. Song Jin just knew about this and his mood was not complicated. After hesitating for a moment, she still said firmly: "I want to go to Jifang Pharmaceutical Shop to find out whereabouts of my father. The second uncle and the others gave the child, please help me take it back. Tell the children again, wait until my mother is free. Go and visit them again. Without waiting for Li to react. Song Jin first jumped off the carriage. He took Mu Ting, Qin Qi and others to leave the team. Looking at Song Jin''s carriage walking away, Li discovered something was wrong. She looked at the nanny next to her and asked, "Jin''er just said to visit the child?" "I don''t hear it very clearly." The nanny lowered her head. "Oh!" Mrs. Li smiled and said nothing. The next moment, Boss Qin got into the carriage. The nanny quitted. Boss Qin asked, "Why is Dalang''s wife leaving? She won''t go home with us?" "I want to ask you that old man." Li looked at him with a angrief. Boss Qin moved closer to Li and asked happily: "What did Dalang do?" "Who knew what he did, and he was angry with his daughter-in-law. When he came back, he would regret it." Li recalled some small details that she ignored when she was with Song Jin. When Song Jin faced her, he was too respectful and respectful. Li thought that Song Jin had not adapted to the change in identity, and it would be better after a while. It seems not now. Being polite sometimes means alienation. Boss Qin didn''t care much, "My son is now having a big idea, so we don''t get involved in his affairs with his daughter-in-law. There are three little kids at home, so that''s what we need to take care of." "Okay, okay, listen to you." Li touched Boss Qin with his elbow. Boss Qin happily stepped forward and hugged his wife. Mu Ting in the distance looked back behind her, sat on the shaft and lifted the curtain and entered the carriage. Mu Ting asked in confusion: "Why don''t the boss go back with the eldest princess? It''s obviously more beneficial for us to find someone." "Which identity is going back?" Song Jin asked back. Mu Ting was immediately stopped. Seeing this, Song Jin had to explain: "If I appear in front of others as Qin Qi''an''s wife today, and when the divorce is made public in the future, I will become the biggest joke in the capital. To be serious, I will say that I was punished for being deceived. It''s possible, I don''t want to bet on human nature." What crime is the sentence of the superior. Song Jin''s current identity is not compatible with Qin Chi. If he really wants to be together, all his glory will be tied to Qin Chi, and even his words and deeds will be stared at. A little thing will be enlarged. All Song Jin can do is to abide by his duties. Come to Jifang Pharmaceutical Store in Xicheng. The carriage parked at the back door. Song Jitao was already waiting here. When he saw Song Jin get out of the car, he immediately stepped forward and saluted respectfully, "Jitao has met the young clan leader." "You''re welcome, let''s talk about it if you have something to do." Song Jin spoke politely. The store where Jifang Pharmaceutical is opened is not big, it is just a small medicine shop. The courtyard behind is not small, and together with the courtyard next door, it belongs to Jifang. Song Jin lived in the next yard. Mu Ting took people to clean up. Song Jin and Song Jitao went to the tea room. It is said to be a tea room, which is equivalent to a study room. The house is elegantly decorated and has a strong fragrance of books. There are calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls, and the bookshelf next to it is filled with scriptures and classics. The servants served tea. "How is it checked?" Song Jin raised the tea bowl and asked. When she was in Huizhou, she compiled a book to Song Jitao and asked him to investigate Song Kuan''s whereabouts. Song Jitao replied: "We have checked the clues provided by the young clan leader and confirmed that it is true. But unfortunately, we have not found the clan leader these days." "During the time my father disappeared, Helian Kai and Yan Jiangnan stayed at the Zhang family manor. Have you ever checked it?" "There is blocked by the court, and there are currently heavy troops to guard it." Song Jitao hesitated for a while and continued, "We cannot get close to that village. If we sneak in and be caught, we may be treated as a rebellion. The young clan leader said that Lord Qin also sent him to the scene. People are looking for the patriarch, so Zhuangzi should have searched it." "you''re right." Song Jin rejected the idea of ??just rising. With her people''s investigation, she is no match for Qin Chi''s investigation. They can''t get into Zhuangzi, but Qin Chi''s people are not difficult. The investigation of Song Jitao and his team at this level is actually to do their best to do their best. It is more practical to be at ease. No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading! Song Jinxin absent-mindedly asked Song Jitao to retreat. Qin Qi felt heavy in his heart when he saw it. For living people, perhaps missing relatives are better than death. Because disappearance can at least make people have a glimmer of hope, we can look forward to a reunion someday in the future. Song Jin settled down and washed and changed clothes. Just as he was about to rest, Qin Qi came outside to report, "Master, the two little masters are here." Song Jin was stunned at first. It seems that I dont understand what Qin Qi is saying. The next moment, the door of the void creaked and was pushed open from outside. Niu Niu was about to step into the house but was stopped by a boy. "Sister, you have to knock on the door first, don''t lose your courtesy." The boy said with a serious face. Niu Niu curled her lips and said unhappily: "I''m here to find my mother, hum." My brother hates her so much, he always cares about her. When Song Jin heard the sound, he put on a coat and hurried out from the inner room. He happened to see the brother and sister fighting at the door. The sister pushed the door open and wanted to go in, but the brother did not allow it. "Mom!" Niu Niu pushed her brother away. He ran towards Song Jin with his short legs, and happily threw himself into her arms, shouting crisply, "Mom, Niu Niu misses you so much." "Mom misses Niu Niu too." Song Jin picked up Niu Niu and kissed her on the face. I saw the door from the corner of my eyes. The young boy of seven or eight years old was wearing a light blue dress woven in silk, with a golden dragon embroidered with a hair of gold. His hair was meticulously combed behind his head, and his bangs gently drooped, and his face still had baby fat. The handsome outline of the future can be seen. He walked with his little hands behind his back. Behave calmly, steady and well-educated. When looking at Song Jin, my eyes couldn''t hide my joy, and I pretended to be reserved. Go forward and pay steadily to Song Jin. "Linzhang pays homage to mother." While the young boy was praying, he caught a glimpse of Niu Niu who was being held in his mother''s arms, and his eyes flashed with envy. When he lowered his head in disappointment, suddenly, his feet flew into the air. He was picked up all of a sudden. Song Jin looked at her shocked son in her arms. The pretentious reserve on his face has long disappeared! Men and women are seven years old and different seats, and their son is eight years old. Song Jin feels guilty about this son. She has not taken good care of him, and she has not even spent much time with him over the years. What she can do is prepare four seasons for him every year. clothing, etc. "Huzi, my mother misses you!" Song Jin quickly pecked his son on the cheek. The young man''s cheeks suddenly turned red, shy and panicked, but his eyes were filled with joy and couldn''t hide it, "Mom, mom, my son has grown up, no, can''t do this, no, no, no, no, not in accordance with the rules." "Good son, mom will teach you a reason today." Song Jin put down his son, then reached out and rubbed his head, "Rules are set by those who are superior, and they are also for others to see. Let you learn the rules, let You are good at using it to achieve your goals, rather than letting it restrain yourself and limit yourself. On this point, learn from your father. Your father does a great job." "Son, please listen to your mother''s teachings." The young boy answered very seriously. That look is just listening to the words. Chapter 453 Mom is right Chapter 453 My mother is right Song Jin raised his hand and squeezed his red face again, "Also, in front of his family, you are still a child. You can abide by the rules but not by the rules. Sometimes you pay too much attention to these things, which will make your relatives unfamiliar." The young boy thought. Song Jin didn''t know how his husband taught. If you teach your child too rigidly, that wont work. Niu Niu''s small body squeezed in, forced her to squeeze between her mother and her brother. She turned around and hugged Song Jin, and complained in a low voice: "Mom, my brother always cares about me, so I can''t do this, I can''t Its so annoying to be that, and its not in line with the rules. Niu Niu doesnt want to see him. This is very quiet. But how could my brother not hear that just a piece of land? Song Jin was surprised at Niu Niu''s complaint. The young man seemed to be hit, his face dull. My sister actually hates him? My mother said that too many rules will affect family affection, but she didn''t expect it to come true immediately. The young boy quickly bowed his hand to apologize to his sister: "Sister, it was wrong for the brother before. I will pay attention in the future. Forgive me this time, I will change it." "Hmph, I have to think about it and forgive my brother." Niu Niu turned her big eyes, not to mention how cute it was. She was so amused that Song Jin was so happy that she tapped her fingertips, "You are just weird, you are honest, bullying your brother, right?" Niu Niu raised her mouth, "I just thought about it, but I didn''t say I wouldn''t forgive my brother." The young man''s eyes shining brightly when he heard this. Teaching his son is different from his daughter, Song Jin pulled his daughter in front of him, "Why do your brother care about you? Because he treats you as his sister, try another person? Who does he care about?" "Hey, it seems." Niu Niu thought of her brother, it seemed that she was just caring about herself. Song Jin smiled again and said, "Mom means that your family is together, so you don''t have to be too lawful, but in front of outsiders, you still have to keep the rules. This is to keep it for others to see, so that outsiders will not say that your husband has not taught well. They are embarrassed, aren''t they?" "Mom is right." "Son remember." The twins responded almost at the same time. Song Jin had no idea what kind of children he would teach today. Later, those who were cheated said that the brother and sister looked like a white glutinous rice dumpling, which was made of black sesame. Bring the two children into the inner room. Qin Qi closed the door and guarded the door. During a chat with the child, Song Jin learned that they would come over to see their grandparents. Li told them that she was staying at Jifang Pharmaceutical Shop in Xicheng today. Niu Niu clamored to see her mother. As the elder brother, Xiao Linzhang immediately proposed to send his sister over. Before leaving, Niu Niu wanted to take her younger brother with her, but her younger brother was too young and Li did not agree. It was before it got dark outside. The brother and sister went back reluctantly. The two young people didn''t want to stay, but wanted to go back to the palace and had classes to attend tomorrow morning. When getting on the carriage, Niu Niu asked with tears in her eyes: "Brother, why can''t my mother go back with us?" "Mom has her own responsibilities to bear. We can''t help her, so we can''t hold back." Xiao Linzhang was well-educated since childhood and was more sensible than Niu Niu. When he lived in Huangshan, he also asked his uncle why his parents didn''t accompany him. Later, his uncle told him that he had his own way. To leave, he still has his responsibilities in the future. My parents cannot accompany him because they have their own responsibilities. His father went to the court to become an official and wanted to take the world as the public. And his mother was looking for her missing family, and the fate of the clan was all on her shoulders. Only when he works hard to learn skills can he help his parents when he grows up. The young boy hugged his sister and carefully wiped her tears, "Sister, don''t cry, I will come back to find us when my parents finish the work." Niu Niu pointed her little head aggrievedly. Song Jin took back his gaze until the child''s carriage disappeared, suppressed his reluctance, and turned back silently. The next day, early morning. It is a cold and cold weather, and the north wind blows to the bone. Song Jin went out for the first time and put on the fox fur cloak given by Qin Chi, and a snow cap, and got on a carriage to Shun''an Trading Company. He proposed to meet with Manager Tao. After waiting in the private room where the guests were meeting for half a quarter of an hour, I saw the shopkeeper Tao who was coming in a hurry. Manager Tao came up to salute, "I have seen my wife." "Uncle Tao, don''t be polite. Sit down and have a cup of tea to warm your body." Song Jin smiled gently and gently and pushed the hot tea on the table to shopkeeper Tao, "I''m here to ask Uncle Tao for advice." "Madam, please say." "What did your young master do after I left Beijing last year?" Song Jin suddenly said this. Manager Tao said in a difficult situation: "Madam, the young man has no right to ask about the matter." Song Jin said again: "I just need to know a rough idea." "Madam, don''t make things difficult for the young." It is a taboo to privately disclose the news about the master. Even if Song Jin is the master''s wife, Manager Tao knew that some things could not be said from his mouth, "Madam wants to know, you can ask the young master directly. The young master has always been very good to you." No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading! Song Jin stared at him for a long time, and then a faint smile appeared on his face, "Uncle Tao told me what happened in the capital after I left, and any news related to the rebels, I want to know everything in detail. In fact, this is her real purpose. When Manager Tao heard that it was not the young master''s business, he immediately agreed. After going out, he brought a bunch of files. There is a date on the file. Song Jin took a look at the date and did not make things difficult for Manager Tao. He started to check it out after sending him out. This is a day. The coldness of early spring cannot stop Song Jin from going out to find someone. Following the possible traces of the rebels, Song Jin almost traveled to most of the capital. In some remote mountain villages where few outsiders set foot in, Song Jin would still take her father''s portrait and go there in person. "Do you think people are in the city?" Mu Ting said with a sudden whim. Qin Qi twitched his mouth, "After the rebels were defeated, the young master took power, so he asked the Ministry of Revenue to accumulate yellow books again." The population of the capital was surveyed last year. Qin Chi not only investigated the hidden rebels, but also used this to find Song Kuan. At that time, Qin Qi was recuperating in the capital and heard the secret guards around him talk about this. One day, outside the suburbs, ten miles away from the capital. Song Jin rode a horse past a hill. You can see the ruins on the hillside from afar, a desolate area. Song Jin stopped at the foot of the mountain, "Where is that?" "I used to build a cemetery, but the incense was not very good in normal times." Mu Ting looked around here and thought of what happened here. Song Jin looked there, "Destroyed?" Mu Ting sighed, "Yes, it was still fine in February last year. However, some people said that the temple was not clean and had a group of little nuns, all of whom were charming and charming, but there was nothing good to say anyway." "There is still this?" Song Jin was thinking. Qin Qi wanted to speak but stopped. Song Jin was about to continue on the road, but suddenly stopped again. The file given by Manager Tao was a few days after she left the capital, a cemetery ten miles away from the outskirts of the city was burned overnight. The specific situation was unclear, but it was marked on it that it was suspected to be a rebel stronghold. Could it be here? "A Qi may as well say something." Song Jin said in a faint voice. Qin Qi lowered his eyes and said, "This temple was once one of the strongholds of the rebels." Tap and stop. The rebels hiding here were ordered to be suppressed by Qin Chi. In order to prevent the leak of information, they did not pass the government, so they issued a ban order. Qin Qi could not tell Song Jin directly. Song Jin got off the horse and climbed the mountain. Chapter 454 Good News Chapter 454 Good News Step onto the bluestone steps. Come to the ruins of the temple halfway up the mountain. On the mottled walls, there are remaining murals, and the Buddha statues are vaguely visible, and the golden color is no longer there, only a black charcoal outline. In the desolate courtyard, weeds grow. Charred tree trunk. It seems to be silently waiting for the ruins. Song Jin looked at the site slowly and did not let go of it, but there was no trace of people here. "Our family, it''s getting late. If you don''t go down the mountain, you may not be able to go back to the city." Mu Ting looked at the door of the city gate, and then looked at the setting sun in the west like a silver plate. Song Jin didn''t know why, but he always cared about it. Hearing Mu Ting''s words, he chose to go back. Step down the stone steps. While standing at the foot of the mountain, Song Jin turned around and looked at the ruins halfway up the mountain, turning over his horse. "Let''s go, go back." Song Jin finished speaking. The others quickly got on their horses and ran towards the city gate. After entering the city, Song Jin and his friends walked on the street with their horses. Looking at the people who were rushing on the streets in the evening, some people were filled with joy. You can often see people gathering together in groups of three or three, chatting happily on both sides of the store. "Have you noticed that today''s city is a little different?" Song Jin said, looking around. Mu Ting carefully talked about the topics around him, "It seems that good news came from the south, and the imperial army recovered Jianning." Song Jin was not very surprised. Before Huizhou, the imperial army had the upper hand. The teahouses and restaurants in the city were almost talking about this matter, and they were also happy on the faces of some people on the street. Just returned to the pharmacy. Song Jitao came up to meet him. He called an old servant over and took the horse to the stable. Song Jin went in to wash his face, drank a cup of hot tea, and relieved his fatigue of running around. Seeing that Song Jitao was still staying outside, he knew that something was wrong, "Come in." Song Jitao bowed his head and came in with respect, "Young clan leader, news came from the princess''s mansion this morning, indicating that there is a family dinner in the Japanese palace, so you must attend." Song Jin was silent when he heard this. This month in the capital, Li family had not invited Song Jin to invite him, and even the children came twice, but Song Jin was not in the city and was walking outside. Later, I found out that Song Jin had just bought a gift. Let someone send it over. This time it''s different. Li sent his servants here before, usually saying that he was invited to go back for a meal, and this time he mentioned the family banquet in the palace. It must not be what she asked for, but what the palace means. "I understand this." Song Jin was thinking that he couldn''t push it off this time. Song Jitao said again: "There is another thing. Zhengyang Bookstore notified us that we can send the book to print." "You and Mu Ting go to get the medical books later." Song Jin acts very low-key. Contact the bookstore to print medical books, it is just a normal transaction. Wait for Song Jitao to leave. Song Jin went back to his room early to rest. The next morning, I changed into a elegant dress, simply put on a pearl hairpin, and took a carriage to the princess''s mansion. The carriage was parked in front of the gate of the princess''s mansion. Qin Qi went to knock on the door. The doorman should have been ordered long ago. When he heard that it was Song Jin coming back, the doorman immediately shouted inside: "Xiaoliuer, go and notify the butler quickly, saying that the princess of the county has returned to his house!" Qin Qi was shocked. There was a boy inside responding, "Oh! I got it, I''ll report it right away." Then the old man in the gatehouse opened the main door. It seems simple but unusual. Under normal circumstances, the main gate is rarely opened, which represents the face of the powerful and powerful family and is usually opened only when they meet the most noble guests. In other cases, it is to enter and exit through the side doors on both sides. From this incident, it can be seen that the people in the mansion attach great importance to Song Jin''s first appearance. Seeing that nothing happened, Qin Qi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She turned around and saw Song Jin get off the carriage. Mu Ting followed behind her with the gift box and moved to the side. Wait for Song Jin to enter the threshold. Qin Qi then followed behind and went in. In a while. The door behind him slowly closed again. Song Jin didn''t expect to see Li again. The other party was wearing gorgeous clothes and elegant clothes, and every move was elegant and luxurious, which was completely different from the simple past. If I hadn''t known this to Li, I wouldn''t believe that such a precious person would have been willing to stay in the countryside for more than 20 years. "Jin''er is back, come and sit down!" No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading! Li waved to Song Jin with a gentle smile, "I have asked someone to look for you several times, but you have no time every time." Song Jin stepped forward and saluted Li respectfully, "I have met the eldest princess." "No need to be polite." Li held Song Jin''s hand, "I''m losing weight, and I''m tired of running around outside? Regarding my in-laws, I asked my father to investigate. He said Chi''er has been looking for it. Auspicious people have their own appearance, so you should relax. Don''t push yourself too hard." Song Jin nodded lightly. The better others treat her, the less she doesn''t know how to get along with her. Li took Song Jin back to the dormitory. The servant asked the servant to take out a few sets of clothes she asked the embroiderer to make for Song Jin earlier, and the materials were all very good. "Jin''er has a try?" Li said enthusiastically, "This is a fashionable style, which young people like," Song Jin glanced at five sets of clothes. There was also a complete set of jewelry on the side, and the jewelry was exquisitely crafted and rare, looking like it was from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Let Song Jin try it on separately. Just the first set. Li looked at Song Jin''s face and said, "I''ve washed this makeup. Other women look good on makeup, but they only come from how ugly you are." "It''s easy to go out." "I know your intention to do this, but I won''t need it anymore. Chi''er can protect you now." Li had known that since he married into the Qin family, he gradually covered up his amazing appearance. At first, Li was worried, and he felt relieved when he saw Song Jin covering his appearance when he went out. Li is really satisfied with this daughter-in-law. Not to mention that she knew the general and knew the right amount, she gave birth to three good grandchildren for her. Moreover, the two got married, Qin Chi was a well-known sick man, and she still could not survive adulthood. Li had been worried about this for more than ten years. . Not to mention that Song Jin was forced to marry someone else, it was not difficult to change her face with Song Jin''s appearance. When Song Jin followed the people to clean his makeup, the palace maid who served him was shocked! Just wash your face, why do you look like a different person? At this time, they finally understood what the master said just now. They had thought that Song Jin had just picked up a bargain and married Qin Chi when his family was in vain, which led to his current glory and wealth. It may not be the case now. A woman with such a look, not to mention her origin, even if she is a lowly family, she may harm the country and the people. Song Jin tied her hair again. Li gave advice, dressing Song Jin in a radiant and elegant manner, with elegant clothes and dignity. "Jin''er appears in front of others like this, let''s see who dares to say that you seem to be saltless." Li put a pair of syrup-cuirious gold-inlaid jade bracelets on Song Jin''s hand with satisfaction, "We will enter the palace like this later." Song Jin reached out to stop him and said quickly, "I have something to say to you alone..." Chapter 455 Believe it or not Chapter 455 Believe it or not Li had long seen a problem between his son and his wife, and had thought of many reasons. He had never thought that the two of them had divorced. Although his son had no choice but to do so, the exchange of the book was real. Add a little falsehood. In order to avoid follow-up troubles. Of course, it''s really the same as it is. Otherwise, he would not need to write it out. Then Song Jin handed Qin Chi the letter he handed to him, selling Qin Chi very simply, "It was him who said he was worried about your body and wouldn''t let me say it. But the better you treat me, the more guilt and uneasy I feel in my heart . As she said this, Song Jin''s eyes lingered on Li''s rosy cheeks. After reading Qin Chi''s letter, Li almost laughed angry. The son looked outside and looked at him as he looked so stupid. He actually played tricks in front of his wife. He obviously didn''t want to give up, but he deliberately let him fly. After letting go, I was afraid that the other person would fly away, so I used her, the old mother, as a raft? ! But as a mother, what can she do? Only follow. So, Li pretended to be very angry, raised his hand to hold his forehead, looking shaking. You must know that she was a slender and gentle woman, which really scared Song Jin. I hurriedly asked someone to go to the hospital for a doctor. The doctor in the government is Dr. Jing. When Dr. Jing was taking the pulse, he saw Li blinking and indicating, so he said a bunch of words that laymen would be confused when they heard it. In the end, it was down to having to rest well for a few days. The old lady who was serving Li, put a spoonful of brown sugar in with half a bowl of boiling water, stirred for a few times, and then brought it to Li for drink. Song Jin is not stupid. After watching for a while, she could see something, but she didn''t say anything. This time she expressed her attitude, because some things are hidden longer, the harder they will end up. Moreover, she came here today and asked for something. When they learned that the two of them had divorced, they also knew that Song Jin did not want to go to the palace to attend the family banquet, Li did not make things difficult for her anymore. Before leaving the princess''s mansion, Song Jin proposed to go to prison to meet Helian Kai. "I can''t find anyone for a long time, I want to ask myself." Song Jin remembered that his missing father was unconsciously feeling sad, and he had already felt badly prepared. "If I didn''t ask myself, I would inevitably do it. I''ve been thinking about it all the time. But Helian Kai is a serious offender in the court and is being imprisoned in the imperial prison. It''s not something that anyone can see if they want to see it." "Take this, no one dares to stop you." Li took out a gold medal and handed it to Song Jin. It is made of gold, with a dragon-patterned relief token, long strips, engraved with the words "As I''m here in person". Just show this token and you can enter and exit the imperial prison. Song Jin had never seen such tokens before, but it is still clear what the five-clawed golden dragon carved represents. This thing symbolizes supreme imperial power. Those who possess this token are equivalent to the emperor''s arrival in person, with extremely high authority and privilege. Song Jin left the princess''s mansion. I walked on the back door and wore a veil on my face. To a large extent, the spy''s vision was confused. Originally, there were not many people in the upper circle of Song Jin who returned to Beijing this time. Today, Song Jin walked into the princess''s mansion and fell into the eyes of many people. It was equivalent to announcing her sense of existence to everyone. Therefore, the news of Song Jin returning to Beijing spread rapidly in the upper circle. Not to mention Qin Chi''s origin, just because he is in a high position, there are many people who want to cling to him. Perhaps there is never a shortage of people who want to reach the sky in one step. The man who is standing at the peak of power in Daxia is the former God of War Prince Rui, the emperor who is now sitting on the dragon throne. But when this emperor is old, he doesn''t want to send his daughter to the palace. If the world had not yet settled, I would have been determined to play with my grandchildren. Helian Pu wouldn''t say anything else. This is a big fire pit, and no one wants to marry him. This shows Qin Chi. Qin Chi''s reign was not just empty talk. The emperor didn''t say much on the surface. When Qin Chi was in Beijing, he almost handled the government affairs, which means he left. There are girls of an age and not married at home, so who doesnt think about Qin Chi. Even if some people recognize reality and act cautiously, they cannot say that they have no hidden thoughts of marriage. Even if their daughter is not a wife, she can be a concubine. A tea party held by a noble girl in private. A maid came in and said a few words in one person''s ear. The girl immediately patted her palm and kept it in a silence, "There is news, there is new news. Do you sisters want to listen?" "Miss Han, I have something to say. You will be so enchanting. It seems that you need to be beaten." A girl in a fox cloak smiled. "Sister Pei didn''t say anything. Sister Han just wanted to ask for a fight, and always made our curiosity very nervous." Another girl giggled next to her. The remaining few people agreed. The girl surnamed Han said with a mysterious look on her face: "I heard that it was the one who returned to Beijing." "That? Who is it?" A youngest girl asked curiously. The remaining girls understood instantly. The girl from Pei family straightened her body and asked, "Where is this news coming from? Didn''t she say that people are in Huizhou?" "I just received the news that the eldest princess''s mansion opened the main gate to welcome her into the mansion today." "And there is this? She has such a good life." "Indeed, it''s so good that it''s enviable." "I just got a big advantage. I met my husband''s family in a tiny state. It''s hard to say whether I can laugh until the end." The girl who said this was so sour. Everyone was sad, but not many people dared to speak sourly in public. This girl is considered a brave man. A smart girl silently stays away from her, and such people cannot be close to each other. The main master who was being discussed appeared in the imperial prison at this time. Just like the gold medal that I came in person, Song Jin met Helian Kai without any obstacles. Helian Kai was imprisoned. There are not many people I have seen here, but each one is very important. This is the first time I have seen a strange woman. He is all-natural and has extraordinary clothes. Especially with a pair of autumn eyes that are swept and charming. Although she was wearing a tulle on her face, the veil worn by this noble woman could not completely cover her face. The hazy outline is still visible under the veil. It is looming, so beautiful that it is not as beautiful as a real person. He is a very beautiful woman. This is the first time Helian Kai has seen such a beauty with a unique temperament in most of his life. He is also in prison today. If he had seen such a beauty in the past, he would have been impossible to let it go. No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading! "Who are you?" Helian Kai spoke first. Song Jin looked at the man, "Song family from Huizhou, Song Jin." "Oh, it''s you, the ugly and salt-free original wife of Qin Qi''an in the rumor." The first thing Helian Kai thought of was Qin Qian''s wife, not Song Kuan''s daughter. Here Song Kuan is an irrelevant little pawn. It is far less heavy than Qin Chi''s weight. Helian Kai suddenly felt a little interested, as if he had insight into the heart, "You suddenly came to find me. Do you already know that your father was killed by Qin Qi''an?" Song Jin''s pupils shrank suddenly. The whole person was in a daze. He Liankai said maliciously again, "Looking at your expression, I don''t know it yet. But it means that you appear here that you have suspected him." Song Jin did have doubts about Qin Chi. Everyone said that Qin Chi has been looking for people. Song Jin had never doubted the authenticity of these things before, but after she almost traveled to the capital, she thought about many possibilities and inevitably doubted Qin Chi. It is certain that Song Kuan was brought to the capital. It is true that people are missing in the capital. The rebels were defeated and the leader was captured. And the rebels who knew that Song Kuan existed would not be one or two. Qin Chi really wanted to find her father for her. There were many rebels captured, but no one could interrogate a clue? It can''t be that all the insiders died. Song Jin suppressed the surging emotions in his chest, "I don''t believe what you said." "Believe it or not." Helian Kai is committed to causing trouble for Qin Qi''an. But after living for so long, it is not difficult for him to see a few things about Song Jin''s thoughts, "But your father is really dead. He was burned to death by a fire, and there is no possibility of survival." Helian Kai didn''t mind saying it clearly, "Last year, Qin Qi''an secretly sent someone to slaughter the nunnery ten miles away from the outskirts of Beijing, killing thousands of lives." Song Jin''s defense line almost collapsed. If she hadn''t been to the ruins of the temple yesterday, her mood might not have been so strong. Helian Kai sighed again, "Qin Qi''an is a ruthless man. What''s the point of sacrificing a life to achieve great things? I have to say that I admire him very much and lose in his hands, and have nothing to say. Song Jin was silent for a while, and his tone was speechless and said, "You don''t need to deliberately instigate me. If you want me to believe what you said, these few words alone are not enough." "Haha, this is a smart girl." Helian Kai didn''t take Song Jin seriously before. Later, after investigation, he learned that she was very talented in business, but that''s the case, and it seems not simple now. At least he could appear alone in front of his cell. Without any ability, it can''t be done. He Liankai said with a bad taste: "It''s okay to tell you. The one who brought Song Kuan to the capital was the meaning of Yan Jiangnan. He had encountered an ambush on the way to the capital." "Later, Yan Jiangnan was afraid that something would happen again, so he secretly detained people to a stronghold in our suburbs. Not only were our people there, but there was another reason, because there was a basement there, and without a special key, the door of the machine could not be opened. He said this and deliberately paused. There is no need to describe the subsequent situation, and Song Jin is already in a state of peace. "Qin Qi''an planned to attack the stronghold at night, and blood flowed into a river overnight. Everyone was dead. A fire burned the traces, hahaha..." Helian Kai laughed gloatingly. The laughter was extremely bad, and I wished someone could kill him. But his words hit Song Jin''s heart again, and he said maliciously with his eyes: "The most ridiculous thing is, in order to cover up his evil deeds, Qin Qi''an deliberately searched Song Kuan''s whereabouts everywhere, so as to cover up his eyes and confuse the public. At first, he still I dont understand why he wanted to do this in vain. I see you today, I understand. "What a peerless beauty, he hides it very deeply." He Liankai looked at Song Jin unscrupulously. There are rumors outside that Qin Qian married an ordinary wife and protected her like a treasure. Now it seems that she is just a treasure. No man doesnt want to hide such a beauty. Song Jin turned around and left quickly. What Helian Kai said is true or false. As long as she goes out of the city to the ruins of the temple, she will know how it is true or false! Chapter 456 Pass by Chapter 456 Passing by The carriage was driving on the bluestone street. Song Jin sat in the carriage, his mind was empty, and he seemed to be left with only the sound of horse hooves outside, the sound of wheels rumbling, and the crisp sound of the copper bells on the carriage. "Boss, where are you going to go?" Mu Ting asked in a low voice. When asked, she and Qin Qi looked at each other. Qin Qi knew that Song Jin had gone to see Helian Kai. When they approached the cell, Song Jin did not ask them to follow in, so they didn''t know what was going on inside, but after Song Jin came out, his expression was a little wrong. Song Jin said in a dull voice: "Go back to the medicine shop to change your horse, go out of the city, and go to the ruins of the temple yesterday." Mu Ting was stunned when she heard this. I wanted to ask something, but I was stopped by Qin Qi. If it weren''t for changing horses, Song Jin wouldn''t have returned to the pharmacy. Go back and head straight for the stable. Song Jitao, who was in the shop, received the news and hurriedly put down his work. When he arrived, he saw Song Jin and the other two riding horses away, as well as the busy coachman in the stable. "Uncle, is that the boss?" Song Jitao recalled the shocking glance just now. The coachman nodded without saying much. Three people rode horses on the streets of Beijing. The woman in the lead is dressed in a gorgeous dress, and she looks like she is from an extraordinary background. However, except for special circumstances, riding horses in the city is usually not allowed. A team of officers and soldiers on patrol met. One of them wanted to come forward to stop him, but his captain pulled him back and asked angrily: "What are you going to do?" "Captain, I am..." The officer and soldier pointed at Song Jin and others, "Don''t you stop me by riding horses in the street?" "Do you want to kill me? Haven''t you seen the gold medal hanging around the waist of the woman in the lead?" The captain pushed away the winkless subordinate. Retreat to the officers and soldiers next to the street. Song Jin and the other two were welcomed to arrive on horseback. As they passed by, they saw the gold medal of dragon pattern on Song Jin''s waist, and with sharp eyes, they saw the four words "Like I''m here in person", and they all knelt down. A few young men came out of the restaurant next to them. When they saw this scene, they were shocked. "Is that the noble girl of the He family? Why haven''t I seen her before?" A rich young master exclaimed. One person next to him pushed him, "Being dying, haven''t you seen all the officers and soldiers kneel down?" Several people hurriedly huddled aside. Until Song Jin rode a horse and galloped past. Almost everyone has an idea in their minds. Whose family belongs to this? They didn''t know each other and had never seen each other. "The beautiful scenery hides the present and the present, and the lotus is ashamed of her beauty." A young man finally came to his senses and sang with a clapper of the folding fan in his hand. Another man chanted, "There are beautiful women in the north, peerless and independent." There was a young man in white next to him chuckled, "The woman in a cloud bun is probably already a woman. But who has married such a beautiful woman, why is there no news?" The young men and women who were walking together suddenly became quiet. All look at the person who spoke. It''s really disappointing! At least I gave them some fantasy, and this fantasy was suddenly exposed. When they were blind, didn''t they see the exquisite bun and embellishment on the woman''s head? Judging from the specifications of clothing and decoration, it is likely that he was born in the royal family and had the eager appearance, with a slightly red corner of his eyes. There must be something big. Several people stayed away from the young master in white at the same time and decided to break up with him for one day. I don''t know how many times the same situation has happened. Song Jin was determined to rush to the abandoned temple, but he didn''t think about the sensation or consequences of this move, or she no longer cared about anything. What I am thinking about is to rush to the abandoned temple ten miles away from the suburbs at the fastest speed. The obsession with finding my father in two lives is very deep. The only time I got such a clear clue is undoubtedly equivalent to the news of death. Song Jin did not collapse and cried on the spot, because he was extremely capable of restraint. After all, I have not seen the body with my own eyes, but I have a glimmer of hope. Actually, according to this situation. A conversation between Song Jin and Helian Kai. She may question 90% of the content, but Helian Kai accurately revealed the basement of the ruins of the temple, and even said how to open the basement. This message is extremely credible. This news is something that Song Jin cannot accept. Song Jin rode his horse to the city gate. There were many people in front of the city gate. The officers and soldiers inspected the people leaving the city, but did not dismount when they saw Song Jin riding a horse. The officers and soldiers who defended the city wanted to step forward to stop them. Song Jin pulled the gold medal around her waist and raised it forward. When the officers and soldiers took a look, they immediately retreated to both sides, put down their weapons and knelt down. Some people next to him saw it and then knelt down. No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading! Song Jin went out of the city without stopping. It only caused a moment of commotion at the city gate, and then returned to normal. It was like a gust of wind blowing, coming and leaving in a hurry. The official road near the city gate. There is a low-key convoy approaching the city gate, and few people know that Qin Chi is among them. Qin Yi suddenly approached the car window and whispered a reminder. Qin Chi hurriedly lifted the curtains and happened to see a familiar figure passing by. The lotus is not as good as the beauty''s makeup, and the wind in the water palace brings the fragrance of pearls and jade. For a moment, Qin Chi lost his mind. When he came back to his senses, Song Jin had already passed the carriage where he was, and he hurriedly leaned his head and looked back. Mu Ting passed by again riding a horse. Next is Qin Qi. Qin Qi discovered Qin Chi. She had also seen Qin Ba, Lao Litou and others before, but she turned her head and looked at Qin Chi, then she actually withdrew her gaze and continued to ride a horse to chase Song Jin. Qin Chi keenly realized something was wrong and immediately said, "Uncle Li, I want to get off the car." Soon, Qin Chi got off the carriage. Another guard was dismounted. Qin Chi turned over and chased Song Jin. Qin Yi, Lao Huo and others took a look, then turned their horses and followed. Some people on the roadside were surprised. Some of them recognized Qin Chi, "Hey, is that Qin Zhuangsheng?" It looks a bit similar. "Who is Qin Zhuangyuan so anxious to chase? It seems like a female nobleman was riding a horse." Even though Qin Chi was born in an extraordinary way and had a high position and a powerful position, some people would affectionately call him the top scholar of Qin. It was originally a small episode, but Qin Chi could not hide it from her when he returned to Beijing. Not only some powerful people in the capital received the news. The people in the palace also received it. You should know that there is a dinner today. Boss Qin and Li have entered the palace, and there are some royal relatives who can hold a banquet just after Qin Chi returns. Qin Chi chased him to the foot of a mountain. Song Jin jumped off the horse. Throw the whip aside. He lifted up the hem of the skirt and hurried up the mountain. Mu Ting and Qin Qi followed. Mu Ting followed without saying a word. However, Qin Qi tied the two men''s horses first. Then he took the horse that Song Jin threw down and tied it to the tree by the roadside. Qin Qi just **** his horse. The sound of horse hooves came from behind. Qin Chi turned over and jumped off the tall horse. The first thing I looked up at the mountain, and my eyes instantly locked on Song Jin who was walking up the mountain quickly. Just from the back, you can feel how urgent she is at this moment. I feel like Ignoring it. Chapter 457 What is the wife here for Chapter 457 What is the wife here to do "A Qi, what happened?" Qin Chi''s face was cold and he blurted out his inquiry. Qin Qi bent down and saluted respectfully to Qin Chi, and replied with a look of distress: "Please forgive me, my son. Without the permission of the master, A Qi will not be able to disclose any private matters involving the master." Then, she lowered her head and took a few steps back, then turned to chase Song Jin. Qin Chi was so angry by her attitude. Qin Yi and Qin Ba who met on the side also felt that Qin Qi was really brave. Qin Qi''s attitude was clearly the only way to be the wife in the future. But no wonder Qin Qi is going to be the other one. Isnt Qin Qis intention to go to his wife? Qin Chi looked at the hundred-foot steps in front of him. Song Jin had already walked nearly halfway. At this time, he looked around and finally realized what place it was. "This was once a stronghold for the rebels?" "Yes, young master." Lao Huo replied, speaking proudly: "Last year, thousands of rebels were killed here, and the rebels'' strongholds were swept overnight." "What are you doing here?" Qin Chi suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart. Without waiting for Lao Huo to answer, he immediately stepped onto the steps with his clothes in his hand. The people who stayed looked at each other. Then he followed silently. As Song Jin stepped on the last step, Qin Chi chased after her and grabbed her wrist. "lady!" Qin Chi blurted out. When Song Jin turned around and glared at Qin Chi, his red eyes instantly showed coldness, but after seeing that it was Qin Chi, he hid in an instant, "It''s you? Why are you here?" "I came after you." Qin Chi looked behind him and explained, "I went back to Beijing today and happened to see you leaving the city at the gate." Song Jin followed Qin Chi''s gaze and looked at the steps behind him. The eyes were Lao Huo, Qin Ba and others, as well as a team of accompanying guards, who were all protecting Qin Chi. Then, Song Jin raised his other hand and pressed Qin Chi''s wrist regardless of lightness or weight. Motion him to let her go first. Qin Chi hesitated and let go, asking, "What are Jin''er doing here?" Song Jin glanced at him deeply. He said nothing, turned around and walked away resolutely. This look was filled with extremely complex emotions, with deep meaning that Qin Chi could not understand at this moment, which made him feel a bad premonition again. The two stopped talking, only a moment. Song Jin had no intention of staying at all. He bypassed the burned main hall and turned to the guest house behind him. As you walk, search. Qin Chi followed behind, paying attention to Song Jin''s every move. Song Jin found the last guest house. Most of the guest house collapsed, with broken beams and walls. Half a year passed, it was full of weeds and was very desolate. Song Jin looked around. Finally, his eyes fell on a stone pier several feet away. This type of stone pier is placed next to the trail and is usually for pilgrims to take a break for temporary rest. The stone pier is not close to the building and there are no traces of burning black. Its just that no one has cleaned it for a long time, and now it is covered with dust and moss. If you dont look carefully, you really cant recognize it as a stone pillow for pilgrims to sit on. Song Jin went up and wanted to move the stone pier. Ignoring whether the golden dress would be stained. Qin Chi wants to come forward to help, "What are Jin''er going to do..." Before he could finish a question, Song Jin moved the stone pier a little away, revealing the small hole under the stone pier, and seeing a long lacquer box. Song Jin reached out to take out the box. After a little effort, I opened it and there was a large iron key inside. One end of the key was a big round hole, and the other end was similar to the one I found, but there was a clear difference. This is the biggest key Song Jin has ever seen. It feels so big that I can''t use it to unlock the door. It''s indeed specially made. Qin Chi didn''t know what Song Jin was going to do until she saw her holding the key and hurriedly found a warehouse behind the dining hall. Even if the building in the temple has been burned, the general outline of the building can still show what it is done when it is intact. Qin Chi followed quietly behind Song Jin. His eyes always followed Song Jin. Seeing her disregarding image and moving the collapsed bricks and tiles into the ruins, even though she was injured at some point and blood flowed from her fingers, Song Jin did not stop for a moment. At first, Mu Ting and Qin Qi went up to help. Then Qin Chi asked Qin Ba and others to take action together, with these guards joining. It didn''t take long. The interior of this warehouse was cleaned up. The burnt stone slabs on the ground were exposed. Song Jin knelt on the floor, groping with his hands to find something. As the hand moved away, bright red blood marks were left. Song Jin was unaware of anything. No pain at all. Qin Chi suddenly stepped forward, held her wrists, and endured his anger and said, "Jin''er, enough! Your hand is injured. What do you want to find, let me do it!" "Get out." Song Jin brushed away Qin Chi''s hand. No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading! Qin Chi still wanted to stop him, and Song Jin pushed him down with force, then turned around and continued to search without hesitation. Helian Kai just told her where the key was hidden, and the warehouse built in the basement behind the dining hall, but did not mention the location of the key hole. This place was once burned by a fire. Even though I had just been cleaned, the ground was still charred. If I wanted to find the entrance to the mechanism, I could only explore slowly. Others can see something. Then I started to search. "Master, half of this wall is not made of blue bricks, like a stone." Qin Qi scratched it with a dagger under the wall on the right, with only a small trace. Song Jin hurriedly got up in front of him. Because he was too anxious, he stepped on his skirt and fell forward. Qin Chi hurriedly hugged the person behind him. "careful" Qin Chi didn''t care about his anger. After Song Jin stood firm, he pushed Qin Chi away again. But the look she looked at him, even if there was no word, he was still hurt, and the pain in his heart was stranded, sliver. He used to be confident and confident, but she would still return to him in the future, but now she makes him uncertain, which is a feeling that he is likely to lose her forever. It made him panic. The partial success is so powerless. In fact, with Qin Chi''s intelligence, as long as he calmed down and thought about it calmly, he could guess the general situation now, including why Song Jin was so out of control. He just didn''t dare to think deeply. That was a consequence that he could not bear... Not only Qin Chi. Lao Huo, Qin Yi, Qin Ba and others also discovered the problem. Especially Song Jin''s disobedience was something they had never seen before. In the past, she has always been calm, dignified and gentle. Nowadays, people''s eyes are red, and there seems to be endless panic and sadness hidden in their bodies. According to their understanding of Song Jin. They knew very well what Song Jin cared about. They knew it from the time they married Qin Chi. The Song family was found, but Song Kuan was still missing. The most important thing is that Song Kuan disappeared at the hands of the rebels. Lao Huo and others are even more clear about this than Song Jin. Think about what might happen next. It''s simply unimaginable! They became more cautious and quietly helped find suspected mechanisms. "Finished!" Mu Ting exclaimed, "Boss, here." Song Jin quickly walked over when he heard the sound. I saw Mu Ting pressing a mechanism. A stone door was exposed on the stone wall. In the middle of the stone gate, there is a key hole. Song Jin stuffed the key he had just found in and twisted it with his hands, but couldn''t twist it at all. She looked left and right, snatched the long sword in Qin Yi''s hand, and inserted it directly into the round hole at one end of the key with a scabbard. Start turning hard. Qin Chi stood behind Song Jin to help. Only the sound of stones rolling from the ground, and a few clicking sounds were heard. A thick stone door is slowly opening... Chapter 458 Trust me Chapter 458 Let me The moment the stone door opened. That is, when you see the darkness inside, you can see the steps down. Song Jin was about to rush in. It was true that Qin Chi hugged him from behind. Song Jin struggled for a few times but couldn''t break free. "Jin''er, don''t be impulsive!" Qin Chi locked the man in his chest very strongly and said quickly, "I don''t know if there are any mechanism traps inside. It''s not too late to confirm that it''s safe before entering. Jin''er believes me, would you believe me?" This statement finally made Song Jin return wisely. No more struggle. Qin Chi''s eyes signaled Lao Huo to check the situation, and he took Song Jin back several steps. Lao Huo picked up a few small broken bricks and threw them on the stairs. Two bricks rolled down the stairs. He heard the sound of the sound and went to the end in just two or three breaths. He tried it twice. Then Lao Huo stepped into the stone gate. In just a while, he came out again, "Young Master, this underground secret room is probably the arsenal of the rebels before, with two corpses inside..." He hasn''t finished speaking yet. Song Jin had already broken free and rushed towards the stone gate. Qin Chi couldn''t even hold on. However, Lao Huo came out intact, and there should be no arrangement of mechanisms inside. Song Jin broke into the basement with red eyes. At first, there was darkness in front of me. Before I could adapt to the light in the basement, I smelled a strong stinking smell of corpse in my nose, which was disgusting. In the huge basement, dozens of raw embroidered weapons are piled up in the corner. In addition, there are two corpses that rot into skeletons. Song Jin stared at the corpse. From initial panic to calmness, to weak feet and falling on the ground with weakness. Qin Chi hurriedly chased her in and saw her like this, and hurriedly came up to support her. "Jin''er?!" Qin Chi shouted in panic, "How is Jin''er? Are you hurt again?" "Not my dad, no..." Song Jin''s murmur was very light. Only Qin Chi who was approaching heard it. Lao Huo, who followed in, touched the back of his head, "I haven''t finished talking just now. One of these two people was cut into their throats, and the other was pierced through the heart from behind. From the analysis of the clothes and things left behind, the dead It should be a rebel, and it should not be over thirty years old." Qin Chi saw Song Jin looking at the two corpses, raised his big hand to block her eyes, "It''s dirty, don''t look at Jin''er." He hugged Song Jin, who had not yet come back to his senses, and raised him up. Qin Chi turned around and walked outside. There was no Song Kuan''s corpse in the basement. For Song Jin, it seemed that a dark and gloomy sky suddenly tear a hole open and shone in a ray of light like hope. Qin Chi also breathed a sigh of relief. The things I was worried about before did not happen. At least based on this situation. Song Kuan is likely to have been rescued in advance! Walk out of the outside. The sunlight pierced Song Jin''s eyes and pulled her back to reality from the confused mood. At this time, she realized that she was being hugged by Qin Chi, and when she raised her eyes, she happened to meet his disturbed gaze. The eyes are opposite. Time seemed to be frozen for a moment. Song Jin''s expression was dazed again. There is a feeling of being in a dream. He raised his head and looked at the vast sky again. The dazzling sunlight made her subconsciously squint her eyes. "Let me go, I''ll go." Song Jin''s voice was still hoarse when he spoke, like a serious illness, weak. Qin Chi stared at her for a while. It was still to follow her wishes and gently put the person down. Song Jin''s feet fell to the ground, and suddenly it became softer. She held Qin Chi''s arm in time and stood firm. She took a step back and thanked Qin Chi. Qin Chi turned around with a cold face. Half-squatted down in front of her and signaled her to put on her back. "Come up, I will carry you down the mountain." Qin Chi''s voice was angry, but he did not release it. "No." Song Jin refused without thinking, "Wait until I rest for a while, and then I can leave." She said something, but Qin Chi did not get up. Waiting for Song Jin to carry her back. Mu Ting and Qin Qi were about to step forward, but were stopped by Qin Ba and others, as if they were not disturbing the couple. But Song Jin did not compromise, Qin Chi did not move. The atmosphere just solidified. "Do you have to be so distant?" Qin Chi took the lead in breaking the silence between both sides. Song Jin lowered his eyelids, "Mr. Qin is in bad health. I am afraid of falling down the mountain." Qin Chi almost laughed angry when he heard this! No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading! When he turned around suddenly and looked up at Song Jin, his deep eyes were filled with various complex emotions, as if he was smiling, but not like, with a hint of threat, as if he was saying that you dare to say it again Try it? Song Jin had just lowered her eyes, but she still couldn''t avoid her eyes facing each other. After her inner struggle, she compromised first, slowly bent down and lay down on Qin Chi''s back. Very cautious. It seems that I am worried about crushing people. While she was still in the temptation, her whole body soared into the air, and her feet were also supported by Qin Chi''s hands. Afterwards, Qin Chi walked forward with big strides. The guard behind him quickly followed, leaving Lao Huo and a few people to deal with the aftermath. In front of everyone, Qin Chizhen carried Song Jin down the mountain. Go down the mountain with a man on his back. It is impossible not to be tired, but he did not reveal it. Just the thin sweat on his forehead showed that he was not as relaxed as he showed. Song Jin reached into his arms and wanted to take out the handkerchief to smear him. When the handkerchief was taken out, she realized that her hand was dirty. It''s not the same. She was stained with clean handkerchiefs. She reached out to put the handkerchief back into her arms, but her wrist was caught by Qin Chi the next moment. "At least I carry you down the mountain. You won''t be stingy even with the handkerchief." Qin Chi said as he grabbed the handkerchief, wiped it like a look, and then put the handkerchief in his sleeve bag, "Wait I''ll wash it clean next time and I''ll return it to you." At this time, Qin Ba led a horse. Qin Chi turned over the horse, and Song Jin wanted to retreat away from the horse. As a result, Qin Chi reached out to her again, "I''ll take you back to the city." "No, I''m here on horseback." Song Jin was about to refuse, but Qin Chi did not take back his hand. He waited for her to come up, "Don''t be too slow, your injuries should be treated as soon as possible." Song Jin did not agree this time, but instead took a step back. I just asked him to carry it down the mountain, but it was no longer what she would agree to. I would ride it with him and ride back to the city. Do you want to live this life? Qin Chi saw through her thoughts, "How do you know what you want to know if you don''t go back with me?" Song Jin suddenly looked up and looked directly at him. Qin Chi''s eyes did not dodge at all. After a few breaths, he said again, "Catch me, don''t be too slow." Song Jin put his hand in his big hand. Then she was pulled onto the horse by Qin Chi and sat across his chest. He put one arm around her waist, held the reins with the other hand, and drove the horse out of his hooves. From starting to jog, it gets faster and faster. Let Song Jin instinctively approach his chest. This way, I naturally couldn''t avoid other people''s gazes, but Song Jin almost nestled in Qin Chi''s chest and raised her sleeves to cover her face. After leaving the city, I rode my horse to the temple. At some point in the middle of the road, the veil she wore had fallen. Qin Chi took the person directly back to the princess''s mansion. The first thing he said when he brought Song Jin back to the mansion was to ask Doctor Jing. When Song Jin changed out of dirty clothes and treated the injury, Qin Chi returned to Beijing with a big beauty, which almost spread throughout most of the imperial city. Many noble ladies from aristocratic families who received the news were so angry that they broke many treasures in the bedroom. They haven''t taken action yet, where did the vixen come out? One by one, they rushed to send their servants out of the house to inquire. Chapter 459 Be alone Chapter 459 Being alone Song Jin sat on the chair on the backrest. The injuries on a pair of hands had been healed and were bandaged, but their fingers were not intact. Not to mention that outsiders had seen each other, Song Jin realized the pain at this time. However, she could tolerate it. Qin Chi asked someone to bring supper. He sent the servant out and personally served a bowl of soup for Song Jin and put it in front of her. "Forget it, I''ll feed you." Qin Chi took the soup up again and picked up the spoon to feed Song Jin. Song Jin leaned back, "No, I can do it myself." "Your hand is injured." Qin Chi looked at her hands. Song Jin is indeed inconvenient to eat by himself now, "Just let the maid serve you." "Mu Ting and the others have been traveling for a day, and now they should all go down to have a meal." Qin Chi didn''t say that this was what he arranged. Seeing Song Jin still rejected him. Qin Chi''s soup spoon stirred the chicken soup in the bowl, "Jin''er, we have done everything intimately, but now it''s just that your hands are inconvenient. I''ll feed you a sip of the soup. Such an ordinary thing can make you Do you mind that way? It seems that my weight in your heart is quite heavy." Song Jin wants to say you are thinking too much. Qin Chi''s spoon was sent to her mouth again. Song Jin subconsciously opened his mouth and drank the soup, "I can drink it directly without spoonful of spoonfuls." If it were still a couple, it would be nothing like this intimacy. None of them anymore, isn''t it awkward to do this again? Qin Chi had no choice but to pick up the soup bowl with both hands and drink it in one breath. This is a real demonstration to Qin Chi. She was inconvenient to take a spoon if her hands were broken, but it did not mean she could not drink a sip of soup. Qin Chi almost laughed angry, but his cultivation was good, and Song Jin could not see the problem. He took the soup bowl away and put it aside. He began to serve Song Jin with rice and pick up dishes as if nothing had happened. This is really difficult for Song Jin. Qin Chi finally got what he wanted, serving Song Jin and ate the meal. However, Song Jin didn''t eat much, and after only half a bowl of rice, he said he was full. Then, she sat aside. Watching Qin Chi eat most of the remaining food. When Qin Chi put down the bowls and chopsticks, he picked up the handkerchief to wipe it, "Okay, Jin''er has anything to ask, so ask." Song Jin originally thought that there would be many things in his mind that he wanted to ask clearly. But at this moment, I dont know where to ask, I guess you already know what happened today. "I asked." Qin Chi called the servants to clean up the dishes, got up and took Song Jin, and went to another coffee table to sit down. After the two of them sat down, the servants brought the brewed tea. Qin Chi waved his hand to signal the waiter to retreat. After there were only two people in the house, Qin Chi said warmly: "When Doctor Jing showed you the injury, I did ask the people who stayed in Beijing and learned that you had seen Helian Kai." He did not expect his mother to give the gold medal to Song Jin. Let Song Jin contact Helian Kai. Then Qin Chi continued, "Helian Kai had a brain disease. In the past, he would attack us for no reason. After he was captured, he wanted to make a rumor that I killed my father-in-law. . At that time, I didn''t think much, thinking that he wanted to slander me again and instigate the relationship between us husband and wife. Based on today''s affairs, he probably really thought that my father-in-law was killed by me." At this time, he looked serious. He was also very serious when speaking. There is no intention of perfunctory. Song Jin sat dignifiedly, quietly waiting for Qin Chi to come to the following text. Seeing that she didn''t say anything, Qin Chi said helplessly: "I made a mistake in this matter, I''m sorry. Today, it seems that my father-in-law may have been rescued." Song Jin wants to know who saved it? The question is if nothing happened to her father, why did the rebels lose or show up? Qin Chi seemed to understand Song Jin''s eyes, "According to my speculation, the one who rescued your father was probably someone inside the rebels, and the rebels were not like iron barrels. The two dead in the basement were as follows: Lao Huo Judgment, people die at the hands of an acquaintance. One had a throat cut. Another one was stabbed to death from behind. There were no signs of fighting at the scene. After thinking about it, Qin Chi said again, "I suspect it was rescued by your Song clan. There is a branch of the Song clan on the Jianning Mansion. The Liu family secretly trained troops. Where did that person come from? Song on the other side My family will inevitably be recruited. In fact, Song Xiaodong and the others will make a great contribution to our ability to capture Jianning this time." Song Jin''s thoughts fluctuated with Qin Chi''s speculation. The possibility that Qin Chi mentioned is very likely, but I dont know if there was any accident in the middle, which caused her father to never show up? "I''ll check this." What Song Jin is most concerned about is this matter. No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading! Since you have a direction, you need to confirm it. Just as he was about to get up and leave, Song Jin stopped again, took out the token on his body and put it on the coffee table, "This token is for good, Lord Qin, and handed it over to the princess." "Why not go in person?" Qin Chi asked with a glance at the gold medal. Song Jin said politely: "I asked, the princess has entered the palace and is not in the mansion." "It''s going to be dark outside, so can''t you stay in the mansion? You still have injuries on your body." Qin Chi didn''t want her to leave, he could still take care of her here. It would be difficult for him to see her when she left. Song Jin bowed to Qin Chi and said withdrew, "No, this is just a skin trauma. It will be cured for two days. I hope Lord Qin will have news about my father again and can notify me in time." With her persistence, Qin Chi failed to keep people. Qin Chi thought about Song Jin''s last words, and a faint bitterness appeared in his heart. That''s something in the words. It must be that she had asked her to leave and hide her father-in-law. She didn''t blame him in person. But for him, it would be better to accuse him on the spot. Before leaving, Song Jin changed back to his dress. Then he took a carriage from the back door and left the princess''s mansion. Taking advantage of the night, my eyes were not very clear. I could only see clearly that it was my daughter, Song Jin was wearing this morning. Then someone who didn''t know passed the news back and made a big gossip. Some people have "reasonable" speculation that Qin Chi brought a beauty back to Beijing from the south, and then collided with her new love in the princess''s house, and the original wife became yesterday''s yellow flower. He was kicked out of the princess''s mansion that night, etc. Song Jin and Qin Chi dont know about these rumors spreading in small areas. After Song Jin left, Qin Chi changed into clean clothes and entered the palace overnight. When Song Jin returned to the medicine shop, he asked Song Jitao to write a letter to contact several branches of the Song family. In addition to the Song clan closest to the capital, there were Song Xiaodong and others who were far away in Jianning. Song Jin didn''t need to ask about the side branch of the Song clan in the capital. If they had news about Song Kuan, they wouldn''t have to stay with Song Jin for so long. They haven''t mentioned it to Song Jin until now, so they must have no idea about Song Kuan''s whereabouts. Song Jin never doubted this point. PS: There is a mistake in the article. Li is a princess, not the eldest princess. I have modified the previous article, so I will say it here. Chapter 460 Come to see you specifically Chapter 460 See you specifically Song Jin arranged for someone to deliver the letter and went back to the bedroom. The body of fatigue hit my heart, and I lay on the bed for a moment and fell asleep. This time, I slept until the end of the next day. It''s unprecedented, almost to sleep until afternoon. Compared to yesterday''s embarrassment and disobedience, Song Jin has returned to her former calmness after a night of precipitation. Mu Ting and the maid were serving each other. Wait for the maid to go out. Mu Ting reported softly: "Boss, Lord Qin came here early in the morning. When he saw you sleeping, he wouldn''t let us wake you up. He had been waiting for almost two hours." "Is he so idle?" No wonder Song Jin was surprised that a busy man appeared here at this time. Mu Ting said again: "I should be worried about your injury and brought Dr. Jing with me." "He has the heart." Song Jin even wanted to say that it was unnecessary. This skin trauma will be cured in a few days. When I went out of the main hall, I really saw Qin Chi and Dr. Jing. When Qin Chi saw Song Jin coming out, he stood up to greet him, and laughed softly, "Jin''er woke up, are you sleeping well?" "I wish you good luck." Song Jin did slept well last night, and when she woke up, she suspected that the medicine prescribed by Dr. Jing last night had a calming effect. Sure enough, Dr. Jing touched his beard and smiled and said, "I added the medicine for yesterday''s prescription to calm the mind. It''s not surprising that I slept well. Madam, I''m here to change the medicine for you first." "That''s why Jing Lao is old." Song Jin smiled politely. Next, Song Jin sat down and asked Dr. Jing to check the wound and change the dressings. It was just that after changing the medicine, Dr. Jing was very meticulous when taking the pulse, and it was a little bit longer than usual. However, he didn''t say much, but changed his prescription. Song Jin asked with a smile: "I have an external injury, do I still need medicine?" "This is for you to take care of your body." Dr. Jing wanted to speak but stopped, and finally said implicitly, "Mrs. should have had a serious illness before. That time she didn''t recover her body, leaving behind the root of the disease. She had to take care of her carefully for a period of time. . Song Jin smiled slightly. Others may not understand, but she can understand. The so-called serious illness is a case of abortion, and it is a bit damaged. Qin Chi looked at Song Jin worriedly when he heard this. I originally wanted to say something, but when I saw Song Jin, Qin Chi took it back and felt a sense of being afraid of being tempted by the mouse. After thinking about it, he decided to wait until he asked again in private. Dr. Jing left with the medicine box. The servants arranged Song Jin''s meal again. There were two people''s bowls and chopsticks on the dining table. Qin Chi pulled Song Jin to sit down. He was mainly guest, and he took care of Song Jin for dinner as he did yesterday. Song Jin asked politely with a smile: "Mr. Qin has just returned to the capital and should be very busy. Why do you have time to come to me?" "I''m here to see you." Qin Chi said with a casual smile on his tone. The words seemed to be joking, but the eyes looked at Song Jin very seriously. When she saw that she still smiled, the curve of the corners of her mouth had never changed, she felt so nervous. Then, Qin Chi looked down and said, "Forget it, it''s okay to tell you. In order to make half a day to come here, I was busy until the third update last night." After hearing this, Song Jin couldn''t help but look at him secretly. He really looks like staying up late. Qin Chi smiled at Song Jin again forcibly, "Before coming here, I went to see Helian Kai." "What did he say?" Song Jin asked seriously. Qin Chi''s eyes flashed, "He laughed at me for insulting me, and said nothing good." "What did you do?" "I did nothing, I just kindly defeated the Jianning rebels. Liu Ji wanted to take people to escape to Liuqiu Island and told him about the ambush by Governor Wang." Qin Chi''s revenge has never been absent, it is just time A question of sooner or later. All the Liu family was arrested, and Liu Ji was shot and killed at the sea. The news told He Liankai, and he was so angry that he vomited blood and fell into a coma. Of course, Qin Chi did not tell Song Jin about this, worried that she thought he was too cruel. Qin Chi said again: "He scolded a lot, most of them I don''t care about, but he said one thing, I can''t forget it." Then he looked at Song Jin calmly. It seems to be saying, aren''t you curious? Why dont you ask if you are curious? Qin Chi''s eyes were too obvious, and Song Jin could only ask, "What did he say?" "He said, I will divorce my wife." No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading! When Qin Chi said this, his eyes stared at Song Jin with deep eyes, "I don''t know if my son will be separated, but my wife doesn''t want me anymore." Song Jin felt nervous when he heard this. It was like an invisible big hand that suddenly grabbed her heart. Qin Chi''s sentence is originally a way to attract jade. Want to make her soft-hearted. But she will remain silent for as long as she waits for as long as she waits. Qin Chi was extremely panicked, and he didn''t want to lose his composure and let her look down on him, but he left like this, and he was unwilling to accept it, so he could only stay here as if he was abused. Until Qin Ba''s voice came from the door. "Young Master, the time is almost over. You will have to go to the yamen later." "I understand." Qin Chi replied. After a while, Qin Chi stood up, walked to Song Jin, stretched out his hand to gently clean the hair on his temples, bent down slightly, and whispered: "I have been separated for several months, and I am here every day. Miss you, but what about you? Do you miss me? While saying this, Qin Chi didn''t seem to think about Song Jin''s answer. When his palm wanted to stroke Song Jin''s cheek. Song Jin instinctively avoided it. Qin Chi''s hand fell into nothing. Qin Chi laughed silently, "Helian Kai said I am not a good person, he probably is not wrong, and I don''t want to be a good person either. Do you know that being a good person is too tiring. Whenever I miss you, I can''t help but think... I can imprison you directly by my side, or break your wings, so that you can''t fly, and I can only rely on me for the rest of my life!" Song Jin''s pupils shrank violently when he heard this. His whole body was so nervous that his body was tense, and he even slowed his breathing a little. He stared at Qin Chi with his eyes, as if he was joking. Unfortunately, she found that Qin Chi was not joking. He probably really thought about it, but why didn''t he do this? The deeper he thought, the more confused Song Jin felt. When Qin Chi raised his hand and stroked her face for the second time, she forgot to avoid it, "Don''t be afraid of Jin''er, I won''t hurt you, I will never do it in my life." After saying this, Qin Chi kept staring at her. Until she nodded subconsciously. He then stood up straight with satisfaction, "I will leave first if I have something to do, and come back later with you. Remember to have a good rest." After saying that, he turned around and walked out with big strodes. Song Jin watched Qin Chi leave until she could no longer see anyone. Her tense spirit gradually relaxed, and her panicked heart slowly calmed down. There was a moment just now, and Qin Chi was very dangerous. His expression and tone were obviously still as gentle as ever. It''s just that something is different. What is specific, it is unknown for the time being. Chapter 461 sophistry Chapter 461 Sophistry Song Jin didn''t know that Qin Chi had just left. I thought I would not see him so quickly, but who knew that Qin Chi had left less than an hour before someone from the palace picked her up, saying that Emperor Wu of Ming was summoned. After Prince Rui ascended the throne, his year name was changed to Mingwu. That is the current Ming Wu Emperor. The year name was personally named by Prince Rui before he ascended the throne. According to what he said, he and Emperor Cheng of Ming were brothers. He did not see Emperor Cheng of Ming for the last time, which was his regret in his life, so he took the word "Ming". He was a warrior, so he got the year name "Mingwu". , use this to miss the elder brother who is immortal. At this time, it is in the Ganqing Palace. The emperor handles government affairs in the daily life. Qin Chi is quickly reviewing the memorials. Emperor Wu of Ming sat while cooking tea while reading "Zizhi Tongjian", very leisurely. The hall is quiet and harmonious. The rumored God of War looks like a thin old man, who is what a martial arts practitioner should have. His eyes were bright and narrowed as he was used to it, covering up the light of his eyes. Originally, he had been guarding the west for many years, and Emperor Wu of Ming had experienced many great battles, so his evil spirit should be very strong. However, after becoming this emperor, he began to cultivate one''s own character. He smiled all day long and did not act like a king in front of his ministers. Compared to Emperor Cheng of Ming, he could be said to be extremely friendly and often summoned his former ministers to drink or cook tea and chat about gossip. If you dont wear a dragon robe, no one will think of him walking outside the imperial city. He is the God of War that makes the enemy scared. Even such an approachable Emperor Wu of Ming, not only none of the ministers under him dared to neglect, but they worked diligently and worked as cows and horses. This is the difference between Emperor Cheng of Ming and Emperor Wu of Ming. He is an emperor who convinces everyone. Emperor Wu of Ming closed the book, "Just count the time, it''s almost time for the person to arrive." "Who should arrive?" Qin Chi put down the memorial, rubbed his arms and asked, "Which minister did you invite to have tea?" "No, you invited your wife." As soon as Emperor Wu of Ming said this, Qin Chi was shocked, and the memorial he was about to pick up almost failed to grasp it. Emperor Wu of Ming sneered, "Look, you are so scared. Can your wife eat you? Could it be that the news I heard is true?" "What news did my grandfather hear?" When Qin Chi thought that Song Jin was coming for a while, he became absent-minded. Emperor Wu of Ming said straight in one fell swoop: "There is so much news. One is that you and your wife are really separated, and the other says that you came back from the south this time and brought a beauty back home." Qin Chi was not in the mood to criticize the memorials, so he simply stood up and walked over, lifted up his clothes and sat opposite Emperor Wu of Ming. Last year, the divorce between Qin Chi and his wife caused a lot of controversy in the capital, and Emperor Wu of Ming naturally heard about it. However, after the rebel incident, someone privately told Qin Chi. Qin Chi openly said that he was a family and divorced from his wife was just a temporary solution. At this time, Emperor Wu of Ming asked Qin Chi, and Qin Chi said he would go to Huizhou to pick up people. But this time Song Jin is back. But after so long, I have never returned home. He didn''t even come to the palace to pay homage. Emperor Wu of Ming tempted his eldest daughter, and his daughter said that Song Jin had something to do and would not be able to do it for a while. Later, he sent someone to inquire and learned that Qin Chi and Song Jin had a relationship, and there was something wrong with it. Emperor Wu of Ming narrowed his eyes, "Since you are separated, I will marry Xunmen again. But Song is a good family, and we can''t treat you badly. Let''s not talk about the medicinal materials she has supplied to the Northwest Army over the years. Just say that last year, they donated a large amount of food and grass, and her contribution to the suppression of the rebellion in the south was also given to her. I want to make Song the princess and allow her to marry again..." "Maternal grandfather!" Qin Chi interrupted him in a panic. When he met Emperor Wu of Ming''s teasing gaze, he couldn''t help feeling a little helpless. He poured himself a cup of warm tea. He picked it up and drank it all, suppressing the anger that surged from his body. Qin Chi calmed down and then said with a correct attitude: "I, Qin Qi''an, are not the kind of person who can share hardships but cannot share wealth and honor. The wife of this life is Song Jin, and she can only be her." "Are you sure?" Emperor Wu of Ming asked. Qin Chi nodded, "It''s her." Emperor Wu of Ming smiled and looked up at Qin Chi, "I haven''t come in yet." The **** responded. Lead Song Jin with a complicated expression in. "Caomin Song Jin pays homage to Your Majesty." Song Jin stepped forward to kneel down to Emperor Wu of Ming. She didn''t hear Emperor Wu of Ming say, so she kept kneeling on the ground. When Emperor Wu of Ming saw Song Jin for the first time, he was surprised by Song Jin''s outstanding appearance. He ordered the palace servants to bring a chair, "You have injuries on your body, get up and sit and talk." "Thank you, Your Majesty." Song Jin thanked him respectfully. He got up and sat down in front of the chair, his every move was extremely pleasing to the eye. Emperor Wu of Ming asked, "You have heard what Qi''an said just now. What do you think?" "The grass people know that they are humble and are not worthy of..." Song Jin answered frankly. "Maternal grandfather." Qin Chi stood up and bowed to Emperor Mingwu and begged, "I beg you to let Jin''er and I have a chat alone." The newest XiaoSpeakSendSix9Book͡͡͡Back͡͡͡! Emperor Wu of Ming saw that he didn''t want to get involved himself. Unlike the arbitrary parents, he considered himself an enlightened elder and his grandson suddenly showed his emotions. It was really rare that he thought that this child would not change his color even if he had a face. He stood up and said a few words. Emperor Wu of Ming walked out of the hall with his hands on his back. Qin Chi sent away the palace servants who were attending him again. The atmosphere in the hall was very tense. It was obviously only two people, but Song Jin felt a depressing aura. She knew that Qin Chi was angry, but she was still very angry. She looked up at Qin Chi. Until he ran into Qin Chi''s angry gaze. Qin Chi said self-deprecatingly: "You are so anxious to separate your relationship with me? You are so anxious that you don''t even care about the occasion." "What''s our relationship? I believe Your Majesty has heard of it. If I cover it up, it would be a crime to deceive the king." Song Jin answered slowly. In an instant, Qin Chi''s anger was like a thorn in his throat, neither up nor down. I can''t find any reason to refute her. Song Jin didn''t want to anger Qin Chi, so he thought about it and explained, "I said that before, not without hesitation. Later, I thought, you should be sincere in life, but unfortunately I was interrupted by Lord Qin as soon as I started." This is better not to explain. The anger that Qin Chi finally suppressed rose again, so his words seemed to be squeezed out from his teeth, "Song Jin, are you sarcasticating me for being insincere? Are you doubting what I just said." "What do you mean?" Song Jin asked calmly. He just said too much. Qin Chi suddenly stepped in front of her. Song Jin sat and he stood. Condescending, it feels very oppressive. The number of times Qin Chi got angry the most in his life fell on Song Jin''s head, "What are you saying this? Do you know very well in your heart. Do you want me to say it again?" "Is it my wife in this life, but me?" Song Jin stood up slowly. When the two looked at each other, the oppression he gave her suddenly decreased. Especially her calm demeanor, her face and the helplessness that she could only indulge in her unreasonable trouble. After a moment of silence, Song Jin sighed lightly and said earnestly: "I heard it suddenly, I can''t deny it. I''m sure I feel something in my heart, but if I think about it carefully, I''m weaker. I know that scholars love fame the most. When I succeed and achieve success, I''m still weaker. , Its not nice to abandon the original wife, but Lord Qin, eight out of ten things are unsatisfactory in life. Sooner or later, you must accept reality, and dont worry your relatives anymore, which will cause trouble for others. "Song Jin, you are very happy." Qin Chi was so angry that he almost left. He strode to the gate of the hall, then turned around and walked back. He really has no choice but to do anything to her! Remember to remind me when you see typos, treasures. Chapter 462 Who bows his head first Chapter 462: Who bows his head first At this time, not only Qin Chi was not like himself. In fact, Song Jin is the same. The way I was just angry with Qin Chi was not something Song Jin could do before, but it was very irrational. But at this moment, neither of them realized this. "Mom!" In front of the hall gate was Niu Niu''s surprise scream, "Wow! Mom is really here to see me!" The two of them suddenly woke up and looked at the door together. Niu Niu''s short legs crossed the threshold and were about to run towards Song Jin. Song Jin opened his arms to catch the child. I realized that my hands were injured in the middle and didn''t want to show them to the child. I hid my hands in my sleeves, squatted down and hugged my daughter who was flying towards me. Niu Niu said happily: "I came over immediately after receiving the news." After saying that, she looked around and said happily as if she had stolen honey, "I came earlier than my brother." My younger brother is still young and doesn''t understand. But the little prince understood, and did not come here at this time because his homework was not completed. The mother and daughter hugged each other very intimately. Even if they hadn''t seen each other for a while, the child was not at all unfamiliar. This shows Qin Chi. It seems to be forgotten by the two of them! Qin Chi reached out with a sour big hand, rubbed the top of his daughter''s head, and came to find his own presence, "Your brother is busy studying, so he is not like you, a monkey, who always skips classes." Niu Niu''s eyes widened, "I didn''t skip class, I learned it, I''ll get the get out of class out early!" "Hahaha" Qin Chi couldn''t help laughing. After laughing, he withdrew his hand awkwardly and took a sneak peek at Song Jin. A quarrel that broke out immediately. I don''t want my daughter to resolve it as soon as she comes. The two of them don''t want to argue in front of their children. In fact, when my mind calmed down, I found that what happened just now was not a big deal, but I was just angry for a moment. With a buffer, I will not mention it tacitly. Now that I have entered the palace. Song Jin would definitely not go out when he saw his daughter. With Niu Niu, he went to see his younger son again. While accompanying them, he waited for his eldest son to come back after finishing his homework. Qin Chi has been there all the time. So the family of five had a dinner together. The three children were so happy that they were playing crazy. Qin Chi always stayed by Song Jin''s side, even without saying a word. This is how people sometimes do. The situation will be different if you are in a different position. For example, if there was no separation, in today''s situation, Qin Chi would definitely focus on official duties and would not be able to sit here with his wife and children, let alone leave his official duties alone for this little time spent together. We once had a child. Song Jin suddenly opened his mouth and threw a big thunder. Qin Chi was so shocked that he turned his head and looked at her, "What do you mean?" "We have a child who has no chance to meet. During the period when I disappeared last year." Song Jin didn''t want to say it, but suddenly he felt that it was unfair to the child if he didn''t say it. She doesn''t want the existence of the child to be completely erased by the years, or many relatives are concerned about it, which is also good. "Pick a day and we go to the temple to light an eternal lamp for the child." "good" Qin Chi''s lips moved. In the end, he didn''t say anything, but his slightly red eyes betrayed his heart and was not calm. Until it''s dark. Song Jin coaxed the children to sleep and left the palace. Qin Chi still didn''t come back to his senses, and his regret gradually invaded his heart. When he went to **** Song Jin all the way back, he suddenly said, "I want to see Mr. Jing." "I will go and press Dr. Jing now." Qin Yi responded and was about to go out. "etc." Qin Chi stopped Qin Yi, "I''d better go back to the princess''s mansion faster." Get up and strode out. The attendant hurriedly followed. Qin Chi walked back to the princess''s mansion in the hazy moonlight and covered in silver frost, heading straight to the yard where Mr. Jing lived. Qin Ba felt sorry for Mr. Jings age and asked someone to inform Mr. Jing in advance. The group just arrived at the yard. Mr. Jing opened the door in his outer robe. Qin Chi took the lead in expressing his apology, "I come to nag Mr. Jing late at night, please don''t be surprised." The newest XiaoSpeakSendSix9Book͡͡͡Back͡͡͡! "What are you talking about?" Mr. Jing turned sideways and asked Qin Chi to enter the house. Qin Chi stepped into the house, and the others were guarding outside the house. The orange lights in the room swayed left and right as the door entered and hit, and the calmness was restored after being covered by a false alarm. Qin Chi asked without waiting for a seat, "You took the pulse of your wife during the day, and it took a little more time than usual." "Oh, yes." Doctor Jing suddenly realized, "Is the young master here to ask about the wife''s physical condition?" "Yes, tell me, don''t hide anything." Qin Chi said in a serious tone. Jing always watched Qin Chi grow up, so he would not hide anything from him. He said truthfully: "When my wife fell into the baby last year, the cold air entered her body. She didn''t recover at that time, which hurt her vitality. In the future, the wife wanted to get pregnant again. , I''m afraid it will be difficult." Qin Chi''s mouth trembled slightly, and he endured for a long time before he took back the tears that would burst out from his eyes in the next moment. He sat down in distractedness. Sitting motionlessly. Mr. Jing didn''t dare to comfort him. It seemed as if a long time had passed, Qin Chi finally broke the silence again, "Mrs. My body is already in good condition. Also, I already have three children, and I don''t care whether my wife can have children in the future. Everything is based on her health. Mr. Jing responded respectfully. After Qin Chi left. Dr. Jing walked in from outside. He came up and helped Mr. Jing, "Master, are you okay?" Mr. Jing, his apprentice, came to the bed, "I''ll help me clean up later. In addition to the medicine box, I will also pack two pieces of changing clothes. I will go to Jifang Pharmaceutical Shop tomorrow morning." "You want to stay in the pharmacy? If you don''t let your disciple take a trip on your behalf." Dr. Jing Xiao didn''t think that the master worked too hard. Mr. Jing shook his head, "I have to go to this matter. Don''t listen to people saying that the young master and the other is negligent. Look at the young master whenever he mentions Madam Song, the left and right words are Madam, do you look like a person who is Mili. ? "I didn''t divorce." Dr. Jing Xiao muttered. Mr. Jing touched his beard, "Who said that? If you didn''t have a relationship with Miss Li Song, would rather live in a pharmacy than go back to the house? These two people are fighting, and see who bows their heads first. Anyway, either the east wind overwhelms the west wind or the west wind overwhelms the east wind. "You are too worried. The relationship between the two masters is very good and there are correspondences every month." Dr. Jing Xiao didn''t understand what the master meant. Mr. Jing glanced at his apprentice with a look of "You don''t know about this" and said, "Old man, I have eaten more salt than you have eaten. When you can see through it, you will have to reach my age." Yes, yes, youre right. "You, you are not as smart as Miss Song." Mr. Jing took off his shoes and lay back on the bed, "I''m going to rest, you can think about it yourself." "Okay, you always rest." Dr. Jing Xiao covered him with a quilt. He then picked up the wicks on the door, making the light dimmed most of the time, and went to clean up for him as Mr. Jing ordered. Chapter 463 Nothing to say Chapter 463 Nothing to say The night is getting darker and the moonlight is like water. It is particularly quiet when it is scattered on the quiet courtyard. The lights in the house are shining through the window, and there is also a lonely shadow sitting quietly, which is not difficult for familiar people to see. That was the owner of the house. Mu Ting and Qin Qi, who were guarding the door, looked at each other. "If you have any injuries on your master, you should take a rest earlier. Mu Ting, do you want to persuade your master?" Qin Qi suggested to Mu Ting. When it comes to who Song Jin is most intimate. Qin Qi knew that he was not as good as Mu Ting. Mu Ting shook her head, "Wait a little longer." After saying that, she looked up at the crescent moon in the sky, "The boss just came back from the palace, and I don''t know what grievances he suffered in the palace. In this situation, she would not want to be disturbed." He has returned since his boss disappeared. I often go dazed and sit until late at night. At first, Mu Ting had persuaded her, but after she persuaded her, her boss also blew the lights and sat quietly until dawn. She thought of her boss''s situation and felt an indescribable feeling of heart. "Sister A Qi, you said that the boss is such a good person, why can''t God be nice to her?" Mu Ting thought that if she hadn''t had Song Jin, she wouldn''t know which beggar''s nest she was still in, "I hope she could get off to the spot sooner Found Mr. Song. Qin Qi had nothing to say. Suddenly, she became solemn, looked at the courtyard wall to the south, grabbed the weapon in her hand, and whispered: "I''ll go out and take a look, you''re here to guard your boss." "You heard the movement?" Mu Ting looked vigilantly at the high courtyard wall to the south. Qin Qi didn''t say much, and quickly went over to investigate the situation. Her steps were light without making a sound. The person came to the wall, and then rushed with another sprint, stomped on the wall lightly, and turned over to the wall in a blink of an eye. Then take a look outside. When she saw this, she almost fell back. On the other side of the courtyard wall. A carriage was parked. There were lanterns hanging on both sides of the car, and the bell was taken off. Maybe he didn''t want the ringing to be heard in the carriage at night. If it were outsiders, Qin Qi might not be so shocked. "A Qi, what a coincidence, I''m still climbing the wall to see the scenery so late?" Qin Ba teased with a humble mouth. Of course, this teasing was very quiet, but it was enough for Qin Qi to hear it. Qin Qi twitched his mouth, "Are you guys?" Qin Ba blinked at her, "We happened to pass by. I was tired and stopped to rest." Go to someone else''s yard wall in the middle of the night to rest for a while? Who believes it if you say it? Qin Qi looked at the carriage again. A faint light shone out in the carriage, and there was someone inside, and most of them were her former master. While Qin Qi was hesitating whether to inform Song Jin, a unique voice from Qin Chi came from the carriage: "It''s so late, don''t disturb Jin''er to rest." "yes!" Qin Qi, who was lying on the wall, subconsciously responded. You will know that it is inappropriate when it comes out. Qin Chi lifted the curtain and bent down to come out of the carriage. He looked up at the high courtyard wall. He stood there silently, letting the night wind blow his clothes. Sadness is like a tide. It seemed that all the sounds were lost around me again. No one knows what Qin Chi is thinking. I just saw him coming out of the carriage and standing there all the time, without saying a word, like a lonely statue. It was late at night and the moon gradually set. Qin Qi had already left the wall, and the yard was always quiet, and no one came out to see him. As dawn approached, the carriage guarding outside finally left. Song Jin in the bedroom was still wearing the clothes she had entered the palace yesterday. When she heard the movements at the door, she looked sideways and happened to see Mu Ting coming in quickly from outside. Mu Ting bowed and said respectfully, "Boss, Lord Qin is gone." "Oh, it''s good to leave." Song Jin said calmly. Last night, Qin Chi asked Qin Qi not to disturb Song Jin''s rest. Qin Qi came down from the wall and reported to Song Jin what he saw, not to say that she had violated her former master. Song Jin really didn''t rest. In her heart, she hoped that the two would reconcile. The two of them are obviously in love, but they are not together, so it would be a pity if they miss it. However, things did not develop as Qin Qi wanted. Song Jin knew that Qin Chi was outside and did not express any expression. Mu Ting whispered again: "Boss, Dr. Jing is here, and he still has a baggage, saying that he is going to stay in the medicine shop for a short stay." "Yeah, I got it." Song Jin obviously had a low mood in speaking. Mu Ting opened her mouth, and finally swallowed it back when she wanted to say something. She bowed to Song Jin and quietly retreated. The pharmacy shop had a special room for Dr. Jing a long time ago. When he wanted to come and sit in the hall, he could come here to live. He had lived in the pharmacy for a while before. Even now, Dr. Jing rarely comes to the pharmacy. The newest XiaoSpeakSendSix9Book͡͡͡Back͡͡͡! Song Jitao still kept the wing where he lived and often arranged for people to clean it. Dr. Jing came over and checked in with his bag. Looking at this clean residence, although the conditions were not as good as those of the Princess'' Mansion, Dr. Jing was still very satisfied. It was not the residence, but the care of the medicine shop. "Thank you for your hard work, Shopkeeper Song." Old Jing thanked Song Jitao with a smile. Song Jitao smiled politely and said, "Where is Mr. Jing? It is an honor to do things for you. How can you say it is hard work?" "You guys are getting more and more good at speaking." Mr. Jing smiled and pointed Song Jitao. Song Jitao said again: "What do you need to live here? Just tell me, if I am not here, I can directly ask the shopkeeper. I have already told you, and no one dares to neglect you. But you are always going to the princess''s house. The doctor in the palace, why did you suddenly come here to stay for a while? Are you not worried about the masters in the palace looking for you? "If you want to ask, ask directly." Mr. Jing had just arrived but he didn''t explain his purpose, "Why did I come? I guess you know what you are doing." "You always don''t say it clearly, I''m afraid you''ll guess wrong." "What''s the matter with you? Isn''t it just that the young master is worried about his wife''s health?" Mr. Jing said lightly. However, Song Jitao heard that something was wrong. But these things are not something he can ask about. The two chatted for a while, and when breakfast was brought from the kitchen, Song Jitao accompanied Mr. Jing to have a meal. It''s almost time to wait. He accompanied Mr. Jing to Song Jin''s place again. Arrive at Song Jin''s yard. Song Jitao did not go in, and Mr. Jing took Qin Qi to see Song Jin. It was similar to last night. He checked his injuries and changed his medicine. All the medicines used were good medicines. The wound has recovered quite well. Mr. Jing saw that Song Jin had not had a good rest, but he treated it as if he didn''t know and silently did his part. "A Qi, send Mr. Jing out." Song Jin ordered with a gentle voice. The voice showed the dullness after staying up late. Mr. Jing picked up the medicine box and before leaving, he still reminded him: "Miss Song should have a good rest." Song Jin smiled slightly when he heard this. Compared to the polite smile just now, his smile was much more sincere this time. "You are worried. I will go find you later. I just happened to have something to ask you." "Then I''m waiting for Miss Song to be the best." Mr. Jing joked happily. Song Jin smiled slightly, "Old Jing walked slowly." Old Jing nodded and went out with the medicine box. Song Jin watched Mr. Jing leave. After drinking the medicine, Song Jin, who had not slept all night, soon became sleepy. It was already a while when she woke up again. After waking up and washing up, he ate something briefly. Song Jin asked Mu Ting to go to the study and brought a set of printed Song''s ancestral medical books, and took them to see Mr. Jing. Chapter 464 Romantic events Chapter 464 Romantic Events Song Jin presented the medical book to Mr. Jing. A few greetings will be expressed. Song Jin said, "I want to find a doctor with excellent medical skills to write a Chinese medicine manual. Mr. Jing is very kind and kind, and is very suitable for him. I come here today and specially invite you to participate." "Who else did you invite?" You are the only one right now. "..." Mr. Jing wanted to ask Song Jin, what made you say this in such a serious tone? Song Jin said seriously again: "The expenses during the period are all covered. As for the rewards... Although it is vulgar and vulgar, people always have to live a life, and each person will get a thousand taels of reward after the matter is completed." "This is still a great good deed with great merit. I am lucky enough to participate and I want to thank Mrs. Song, so I don''t have to give me the reward. But before that, I still need to ask my master." Old Jing said with kind eyebrows, touching his beard and kind eyebrows, and then he said again A few comments were made. Song Jin responded to this. As long as Mr. Jing did not refuse, this matter would be safe. Because most people master a craft, they are usually secretly unprotected. It is extremely rare for Song Jin to publicize ancestral medical books and plan to promote medical skills among the people. Song Jin picked Jing to help, and she trusted his medical skills and ethics, and was also the best person she had ever come into contact with. In his early years, Mr. Jing worked as an imperial physician in the palace, but later, a secret case that was implicated in the harem was almost secretly dealt with by Emperor Mingcheng. It was a pity that Prince Rui had lost his medical skills and came forward to protect the people. Mr. Jing is the doctor in the princesss mansion. If you want to compile medical books, you must first ask your master for instructions on this major matter. Qin Chi learned about it that afternoon and supported their move very much. "If you encounter any medical problems, you can go to the Imperial Hospital to find Doctor Zhuo. Or come to me." "Thank you, my son, for your accomplishment." Mr. Jing was allowed and showed surprise. He was in need of a large number of cases and information. Meng Qingrui came in with the official documents and met Mr. Jing and went out with a happy look on his face. Looking back at Mr. Jing who was walking away, Meng Qingrui was dressed and straightened, "Sir, Mr. Jing has found a treasure? His face was rippling when he went out." "He got a big bargain." Qin Chi said briefly and took the official document handed over by Meng Qingrui. As he saw it. Meng Qingrui sat aside and poured himself a cup of tea, "I heard a rumor today, it was about adults." "What rumors?" Qin Chi asked without raising his head. Meng Qingrui''s eyes rolled, picked up the tea bowl and approached Qin Chi, and whispered: "It''s said that the adults have a new beauty, hiding in a yard in the princess''s mansion, preventing anyone from spying." Qin Chi said coldly: "Nonsense." "This matter has just spread. Do you want to clarify?" Meng Qingrui guessed that the beauty should be Song Jin. Qin Chi was stunned, "No need." "Aren''t you afraid that someone will find Jifang Pharmacy? Some people find their sister-in-law and may be afraid of you and dare not have evil thoughts, but some may also take risks. You must know..." Meng Qingruis concerns are not without reasons. He still remembers the shocking glance when he first met. Since then, the family told him about marriage several times. Every time he secretly went to see a partner, he couldn''t help but compare it. Then he felt that something was wrong, which led to him not marrying a wife yet. Le Yan, who is the same age as him, now his son can make soy sauce. He dared not tell anyone about this. Its not that he has thought about Song Jin, but that peoples vision has been raised and they are unwilling to settle down. Qin Chi was silent for a while. He called Qin Yi and asked him to arrange some more people to protect Song Jin. Almost at the same time. On the other side, Jifang Pharmaceutical Store. Song Jin passed by the yard where the medicinal herbs were drying. I accidentally heard a few guys sitting by the well, cleaning the medicinal materials while chatting. When the chat was getting excited, my voice forgot to calm down. "Scholars have many minds." A guy in blue shirt said, "Look at the moment, I only hear the new people laughing, who will listen to the old people crying?" "The woman said she was extremely beautiful. The scene of riding a horse on the street that day fascinated many great men. Now many people are asking about the woman''s background and some people offer rewards!" "Didn''t it mean that Lord Qin brought it back from the south?" "There is a capital in front of others. Lord Qin returns to the capital in the back... However, the two of them are just not innocent." "Hey, I rode a horse, held it so tightly, and I went there before I could tell my innocence, hehe..." A few guys are having a lot of fun chatting. The newest XiaoSpeakSendSix9Book͡͡͡Back͡͡͡! Song Jin was speechless when he heard this. What are the rumors outside like? When she went back to the yard where she settled, Song Jin looked at Mu Ting behind her, "Do you know this rumor?" "I heard it a quarter of an hour ago. Before I could tell my boss, you heard it first." Mu Ting knew that the beauty in the rumor was Song Jin, so she was not very worried. "It was arranged randomly by some good guys, so the boss didn''t have to. I''m too worried and it will calm down in a few days." "If the rumors outside still haven''t calmed down, tell me again." Song Jinxin thought that there might be someone behind her who would deal with Qin Chi. This rumor is not very friendly to Qin Chi. Song Jin was not worried that someone would cause trouble. Now that Qin Chi has a high position and is in power, he is undoubtedly a stupid monkey to jump out and oppose him at this time. Its the monkey who killed the chicken to warn the monkey! A few days passed in a row. Song Jin stayed at home to recuperate. When he had time, he would go to Mr. Jing to sit there and take the lead if he could help. Rumors outside have subsided. The people were attracted by the news that the army was returning in triumphant return, and all kinds of heroic deeds that happened were constantly mentioned by storytellers. There are not many people talking about Qin Chi''s **** romantic affairs. Song Jin suspected that it was intentionally arranged by Qin Chi, and quietly guided the public to discuss this trick. She had used this trick before. The only thing that upsets Song Jinxin is that Qin Chi himself does not appear, but his sense of existence is unprecedentedly strong. People often send things over. From precious jewelry to rare tributes in the court, to small bowls of soup and fruit snacks. For example, yesterday he thought the soup and dishes in the imperial kitchen were good, and tomorrow these will appear on Song Jin''s dining table. Song Jin did not see Qin Chi''s person. I can''t even refuse. I wrote a letter and asked someone to hand it to Qin Chi, but they still do what they want. In the past two days, Song Jitao said that there were suspected servants of wealthy families who came nearby to inquire about Jifang Pharmaceutical Store. Although he was temporarily fooled, he could not resist the intention of those who were interested and would continue to pay attention. This made Song Jin suspect that Qin Chi often brought things over, which attracted the attention of some people. With this idea, she wanted to go as far as Qin Chi could go. "Boss, Lord Qin asked you to go to the Princess''s Mansion now, and even the carriage is ready." Mu Ting hurried over to report. Song Jin brows gently, "Does anyone say what''s going on?" "The person who came did not say anything." "Then I''m not free, so I won''t go." Song Jin replied without thinking. She didn''t know what Qin Chi wanted to do. Anyway, it''s right to refuse! Chapter 465 So cruel Chapter 465 So cruel Song Jin has now secretly scolded himself for being stupid. When I was in Huizhou, I actually believed that Qin Chi agreed to Heli, and that if he really agreed, he would not be like this. I can only say that I am a cunning man who played a delaying plan with her. Song Jin flipped over the gastrointestinal herbs that were dried on the bamboo sieve. Suddenly, familiar footsteps came from behind her, causing her to pause her movements. "Jin''er just doesn''t like me?" A man has a calm posture and no expression on his handsome face. He is neither happy nor sad, and it is difficult to understand the specific emotions. When Song Jin turned around, he saw Qin Chi, he slowly followed the etiquette and asked gently, "I wonder what is the price for Lord Qin to come?" Qin Chi said, "Answer me first." Song Jin didn''t want to answer, and Qin Chi insisted on being obsessed with this, and she lost her good temper. "It''s fine for everyone to know it, and I have to ask again and again. Isn''t this a waste of time?" Qin Chi looked at her for a long time and murmured in a low voice, "You are right, I just feel uncomfortable." He turned and left with a cold face. After walking a few steps, he found that the person behind him didn''t follow, so he threw down another sentence: "If you want to see your father, follow." Upon hearing this, Song Jin''s pupils shrank, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "You have found my father! How are you doing? Where are you?..." Seeing Qin Chi still walking forward. Song Jin quickly chased after him and asked while walking, but unfortunately Qin Chi kept his face cold and didn''t say a word. In the alley at the back door, a carriage was parked, and Qin Ba and others guarded it here. Qin Chi took the lead in getting on the car. Song Jin sat down beside him. The hands were folded in front of her, and she sat dignified and elegantly, with a natural charm, just like a picture of a scholar and woman written by a master. The carriage starts from slow to fast. Various noisy sounds came from outside from time to time, making the carriage particularly quiet. Qin Chi''s expression was obscure. Song Jin asked tentatively: "How did my father find it?" Qin Chi was silent. Song Jin asked again: "Is he injured?" Qin Chi remained silent. After asking questions and not knowing each other, Song Jin couldn''t help but suspect that Qin Chi had not found someone, but just took her out on the pretext of her father? Song Jin looked at Qin Chi again, and took a little scrutiny. Qin Chi''s eyes narrowed slightly, "What does your look mean? He looks like he''s going to eat me." Song Jin''s expression was slightly stiff. Then Zhan Yan smiled and whispered: "Mr. Qin has misunderstood. I am grateful that you are too late." The voice is gentle and soft. It feels like a warm breeze blowing on the face, or like a feather passing through the heart, it sounds nice and itchy. The breath that blocked Qin Chi''s heart was dispersed for most of the time. He annoyed his lack of hope. He simply leaned against the wall of the car and closed his eyes to rest, looking like he was keeping people thousands of miles away. Song Jin glanced secretly. He took a light breath and exhale slowly to calm down his sudden mood. After a while, Song Jin apologized sincerely: "If there is any offense just now, I hope Lord Qin will forgive me." "No need to apologize, I''m used to it." Hearing that Song Jin surrendered, Qin Chi''s mood should have improved, but the reality was exactly the opposite. Very powerless, he closed his eyes again. It is obvious that people are around, but they seem to be far away. He hated her cold heart. I hated her sanity. After a few years of love between husband and wife, I just gave up! He was the only one who was deeply involved in it, and he seemed very stupid. He was happy to find Songs father today. He was not happy to find someone, but to be happy to finally see her with justification! I originally gave her a surprise! Who knows... Oh! Since that''s the case, don''t blame him! Qin Chi''s aura changed, as if he showed an amazing aura of the superior when he was in the court and faced with all officials. "According to Jin''er''s usual code of conduct, I helped you find your father this time. Have you figured out how to repay me?" Song Jin thought seriously, "I owe you a favor." "One favor is not enough." Qin Chi had a sharp edge in his black eyes, and he said carelessly, "Besides, with my current status and status, your favors will never be used until death." Song Jin was angry when he heard this. But when I think about it calmly, I can''t refute it. Song Jin had to change his salary, "I was not thinking well. I only had a fleet and Jifang Pharmaceutical Store. There are 36 pharmacies in total, distributed in various prefectures, and the annual profit can be divided into 50% of your money." "Am I short of this?" Qin Chi disagreed. Song Jin was discouraged, "What do you want?" Qin Chi''s eyes locked on Song Jin tightly, and his thin lips opened lightly, "I want you to move in and eat and live with me." The newest XiaoSpeakSendSix9Book͡͡͡Back͡͡͡! "no!" Song Jin refused without thinking. Qin Chi felt a little painful in his heart. He turned his head coldly toward the car window, "Let the coachman turn around and return to the Jifang Pharmaceutical Shop..." "Slow down!" Song Jin stopped it. But the people outside would not listen to her, and the speed of the carriage began to slow down. Song Jin said seriously, "You know it is impossible, why bother to force others to do anything?" "Don''t want to see your father?" "No, I want to see you!" She wanted to see her father for two lives. But since people have found it, judging from Qin Chi''s attitude at this time, his father should be alive, so sooner or later, he will be able to reunite his father and daughter. What''s more, even if she doesn''t go to see her father. Wouldn''t my father come to see her? At this moment, Song Jin was terriblely calm. Until the carriage stopped beside the street, he still didn''t let go. Qin Chi grabbed Song Jin''s shoulders suddenly, straightened her body, and forced her to face him. He persistently wanted to find something from her eyes until the ends of his eyes were slightly red, with a different emotion, complex and difficult to understand. Song Jin''s face was calm. There is no compromise at all. "So cruel!" Qin Chi let go of Song Jin. He turned to the outside and said, "Qin Ba, go back to the princess''s mansion!" "Yes, young master." Qin Ba responded. Soon, the carriage moved again. The atmosphere in the carriage was dull, and neither of them spoke until they returned to the gate of the Princess''s Mansion. After all, it was Qin Chi who compromised. Get off the car and ordered Qin Ba to lead Song Jin to see people. Qin Chi stepped into the mansion without looking back, and did not wait for Song Jin behind him. When Song Jin came out of the carriage, she covered her face with her sleeves and lowered her head and followed Qin Ba. However, she hurried out this time, and her clothes were not changed, but she was still dressing in the medicine shop. She was wearing a simple cotton dress, and a silver hairpin and a headscarf between her hair. This scene happened to be seen by the eyeliner staring at the princess''s mansion. I saw Qin Chi and Song Jin get off the carriage one after another, and guessed from Song Jin''s ordinary clothes that Song Jin is Qin Chi''s wife. "My mother, Qin Zhuangyuan actually went to pick up his original wife back home!" "New love and old love are going to meet!" "Qin Qi''an got off the carriage and didn''t even look at the original wife. He was extremely disgusted with the original wife!" "The original wife is not as frivolous as the maid in the mansion!" "Man, hehe!" One by one, the eyeliners thought they had discovered a big secret and hurried back to report to the master''s house. Please vote at the end of the month ~ Chapter 466 Reunion Chapter 466 Reunion Qin Chi took his wife back home. His wife was dressed very shabby, not as good as the maid, and Qin Chi was very disgusted with his wife. New rumors are about to rise again. But these parties are not yet aware of it. Qin Chi was so angry that he locked himself in the study. Song Jin was taken by Qin Ba to a residential yard. When he arrived in front of the door, the servants would report first. The middle-aged man in the house was too thin. The skin on the face is dry and tight, as chapped as old tree bark, with dry and cracked lips, and the skinny knuckles are protruding. The clothes were clean, the hair and beard had just been taken care of, and there was a little moisture. It should have just been taken care of. The person sat on a chair, his eyes were empty and confused, and an indescribable misery appeared all over his body. The traces of time imprinted on him seemed to tell the world that he had lived in this world and struggled. When Song Jin saw the middle-aged man, tears instantly burst out from his eyes. "father!" She suddenly rushed towards the middle-aged man. Grasp his hands and kneel at his feet. A dad called Song Kuan back to his senses, "Jin''er?" "Dad! It''s me." Song Jin''s voice choked. The father and daughter hugged their heads and cried bitterly. It was not until the servant brought the boiled medicine that he had just recovered. Song Kuan is now very weak and his emotions are fluctuating. After drinking the medicine, people start to doze off. Song Jin helps him to bed to rest. Because she was worried about Song Kuan''s health, Song Jin had a lot of words in her heart and refused to ask. He stood in front of the bed until Song Kuan fell asleep, and Song Jin gently walked out of the inner room. I didn''t see Qin Ba still outside. There is also a boss Qin. Boss Qin heard the news and rushed over to visit him, asking with concern: "How about the eldest daughter-in-law, how about the in-laws? If you need it, you don''t have to be restrained in your own home." Song Jin said gratefully, "My father fell asleep, you have to worry about this." The two of them made a few more noises. Boss Qin didn''t stay for a long time and left the living yard. Song Jin turned to Qin Ba, "How much do you know about my father?" "Old Huo is responsible for this matter. I have been with the young master forever and only know a rough idea." Qin Chi said what he knew. On that day of the temple, Lao Huo stayed and searched the vicinity of the temple again, along with the hilltop. There was no intention to go deep into the mountains, but Lao Huo discovered traces of someone and increased the search. Song Kuan and two Song clan members were found in the mountain. The three of them stayed in the mountain for several months and spent a winter in the mountain. The conditions are difficult, so I can only bear it. People live in a bad state. This time, Lao Huoneng found someone, but one of them was sick. Song Kuan met when he went to collect herbs. Lao Huo has met Song Kuan. Song Kuan also has an impression of the big guy Lao Huo. The three of them have never come out of the mountain, which is also a problem of news blockage. At the beginning, they were saving people and hiding in the deep mountains. They fled the night before the fire in the temple. They went out to inquire about the news, but they were almost caught by the government several times. The government searched the government very seriously last year. The three of them had to guard against both the rebels and the government. You should know that even if they escaped from the rebels, they still belonged to the rebels, including Song Kuan, who has been roasting medicinal materials for the rebels. This level of identity destined them not to appear in front of others openly, otherwise the government would pursue it as a serious crime of treason and would definitely implicate the family. The three of them are ready to die in the mountains for the rest of their lives. It is Lao Huo''s sudden appearance that lets them know the changes outside the mountain. The Song family is so unjust that they are worried that they will not happen. Qin Ba said again, "Young Master went to the pharmacy to pick you up as soon as possible when he learned about it." Song Jin became much quieter after hearing this, "What about the other two? How are they?" In the wing next door. Qin Ba pointed to the west wing of the guesthouse, "Doctor Jing has already seen it. One of them is sick and has taken medicine, and the other is nothing serious." Just listen to this. If she had never seen her father, Song Jin would probably believe Qin Baqingpiaopiao''s words. He then asked the servants who came to the hospital for inquiries. When she learned that the two were sleeping, Song Jin did not go over to disturb her. After that, she went to pay a visit to Li. When I came to the princess''s mansion, I couldn''t avoid it. All three children were in the palace, but Song Jin couldn''t see them. But when he went to see Li, the servant who was guarding the yard said that he had just gone out and would have to wait a while before he came back. The nanny in charge invited Song Jin in. Song Jin thought about it and went in and wait. "Your Highness has cooked chicken soup and sent it to the prince." The nanny in charge personally served tea to Song Jin. Song Jin took the tea and thanked him politely, "Mum, you''re polite." At this time, Li was in the study. The newest XiaoSpeakSendSix9Book͡͡͡Back͡͡͡! The reason for serving chicken soup is actually because Li learned of his sons abnormality and came to take a look. "Mom, I''m really fine." Qin Chi sat at the table, pretending to be carrying a booklet and was looking through it, "It''s official business that I didn''t stay by Jin''er''s side." "Fuck me like a fool?" Li looked serious, "I didn''t get involved in your affairs before, but I thought it could be solved quickly with your ability, but look, what did you do?" Qin Chi wanted to say he didn''t do anything. But it is difficult to convince if you say this. Li sat down and said with a stern face, "It''s useless to pretend to be mute. You must make it clear to me today." "I don''t know where to start." Qin Chi put down the booklet in his hand, suppressed what was in his heart, and suddenly wanted to talk to someone, "At first, I thought it was my own doing something, which made the wife insist on getting along. It was only in the past few days that nothing was the crux of the past, and that child who had no chance to be born was not a hurdle that could not be overcome." After a pause, Qin Chi''s voice became a little low, "Finally, it was a change in identity and status that made her not believe me! If she didn''t believe me, I could protect her for the rest of her life..." Song Jin gave up on him directly and chose the most favorable life. It doesn''t work if he doesn''t want to admit it. He is not that important in Song Jin''s heart. Li''s eyes touched his son''s little movements of cuffing, and he had already gone back and forth three times, and it was obvious that he was not calm inside. After a while. Qin Chi stood up with his palms on the table and returned to calmness. "The affairs in the court are busy, so let me put my private affairs aside first. Please rest assured, your daughter-in-law can''t run away." He bypassed the table and sued Li. People left the house. For several days. I never returned home and was busy with government affairs. When Song Jin took Song Kuan and the others out of the mansion, Qin Chi still never showed his face. He only asked the butler to prepare a lot of precious medicinal materials for them to take them away, as well as the things prepared by Li. When I came, I simply followed the light car. There were two more cars of things when leaving. After returning to Jifang Pharmaceutical Store and relocating his father and two tribe members, Song Jin learned that rumors about Qin Chi were rising again outside. Not a good rumor. Most of them are about Qin Chi''s romantic history. Back and forth, there are Qin Chi, his original wife Song, the beauty who is catching the wind and shadow, and the love and hate entanglement between the three. There is no actual fact. It''s all made by a mouth. It has a nose and eyes. After hearing this, Song Jin looked dark. The most important thing was that these rumors came to her father''s ears and were asking her to come and call her over. Chapter 467 Marquis of Xiangyi Chapter 467 Marquis of Xiangyi "Jin''er, what''s wrong with you and your husband?" Song Kuan remembered that she was engaged to Qin Mingsong. "This person has been changed, and the couple still have conflicts?" Song Kuan, who lives in the Princess''s Mansion, learned something. Its like who Song Jin married and three grandchildren. Originally, Song Jin wanted the child to come to see Song Kuan, but Song Kuan stopped him. He was worried that his appearance would scare the child and wanted to meet him after he had better health. Song Jin explained: "Just listen to the rumors, they are all fake, fake, and fake." "I think it''s almost the same." Song Kuan thought this way, but it was not without reason. "I have met my father-in-law and mother-in-law in the Princess''s Mansion, but I haven''t seen him." "It should be busy with official duties." "I''m so busy that I don''t have any free time?" "Dad! When you take care of your health, you will know after asking. He is really busy. His Majesty''s memorials were criticized by him. The southern rebels had just subsided, and there were many follow-up matters. There were also the Tatars in the northwest who were eyeing him and harassing him..." Since Prince Rui became the emperor. The person guarding the northwest was replaced by Marquis Ling, who was General Ling and Ling Yuanhao''s father. When Song Kuan saw his daughter open his mouth, he said good things for Qin Chi, and interrupted her angrily, "That''s right, I was just nagging, and I didn''t have any objections to him. Is it necessary to protect him like this?" "I, I just don''t want my father to misunderstand." Song Jin met her father''s joking eyes, and her cheeks became slightly hot, but she couldn''t say that Qin Chi was not good against her conscience. "There is no other meaning. He has kindness to the Song family. I can''t be ungrateful, right? Dad?" "Since that''s the case, why did you break up?" Song Kuan''s words made Song Jin silent. Heli''s decision is very rebellious. Before, Song Jin could convince Uncle Song Er, in addition to being inappropriate, she was also looking for her father. But now that my father has been retrieved, it will be difficult to fool him. Song Kuan was chasing his body, not his brain. Song Jin said, "There was no breakup, I was separated calmly." "Dad is also calm and listen to you nonsense." Song Kuan successfully choked Song Jin again with one sentence. Song Jin knew that some reasons were untenable, at least it was not allowed in this world where men were superior to women. But it is because she doesn''t want to be wronged and doesn''t want to be trapped in the back home for the rest of her life. Glory and wealth are good. It is the lifelong pursuit of most women in the world. But it was not what she, Song Jin, wanted. Song Kuan said again: "What''s wrong? I can''t even convince myself for making a nonsense?" "How can it be?" Song Jin raised his hand and pressed Song Kuan''s shoulder, and said with a favor, "I will serve my father in the future and provide you with my old age." Song Kuan heard it very comfortably, but he still had to ask clearly, "Tell me, what''s the reason." "I think life is pretty good now. Do whatever you want. Don''t worry about who and who think about it, or care about other people''s eyes. I have the final say." Song Jin couldn''t help but feel a little casual in front of his father, without having to hold up a gentle coat in front of others, nor with the opinions of others. "It''s like now, if I want to stay by my father''s side, no one dares to be careless in front of me, very comfortable." Song Kuan didn''t say anything when he heard this. Looking up and down at her daughter, she felt a little relieved when she saw her expression was pleasing. There are many rules for high-ranking businesses. His daughter is not used to it, or has she retreated? "You haven''t tried this, so you just divorced first?" Song Kuan didn''t know whether to praise her decisiveness or scold her for being unkind. "Did you ever think about how this would be for the person you gave up? There are three children, you are their biological mother. Is there anyone like this who is your mother?" Song Jin kept silent. Song Kuan said angrily, "What are you doing in a silence? Talking." "I can''t decide the matter of the child." Song Jin said with his eyes lowered. Song Kuan frowned, "You are their biological mother, how could you..." Speaking of this, he stopped. I really can''t control it! Song Jin did not hide his true thoughts, "Dad, I, as a mother, only realized that the child was adopted afterwards. In fact, it doesn''t matter to me that the child''s surname is Qin or Helian. I won''t take my surname Song anyway. I''m so angry that no one knows me. I know the truth. Even if I don''t have a divorce now, Qin Qi''an and I will not be able to last for a long time. Because I am not interested in taking concubines for my husband and raising children with concubines." "Did you love Qin Qi''an?" Song Kuan''s words were not a question, but with a certain sense of confidence, "It is because of affection that you leave so neatly, because there is no powerful man who does not take a concubine." "Dad! I don''t..." Song Jin subconsciously denied it. Song Kuan raised his hand to stop her, "You are a blind eye, and your father is a bystander." To put it bluntly, it was love. If you are ruthless, you wont care. People''s hearts are biased. He has no desire for anything in his life, but only hopes that his daughter will live a comfortable life. Song Kuan looked up and touched his daughter''s head, and said, "Dad has no intention of persuading you, as long as you live a happy life." "It''s still my father who loves me the most." Song Jin felt warm in her heart. The newest XiaoSpeakSendSix9Book͡͡͡Back͡͡͡! She rested her head on Song Kuan''s shoulders, her eyebrows and eyes were curved, which was a relaxation that she had never had in the past. Just at this moment. Someone came outside. Mu Ting hurriedly came in and reported: "Boss! There is an imperial edict, and the imperial edict has arrived!" Imperial edict? Song Jin was stunned. He turned to his father and found that he was also surprised. Then Mu Ting said again: "It is Lord Qin who came to send the order." Because the imperial edict came suddenly. It takes time to set up a table of incense temporarily and bathe incense. Song Jin changed into grand clothes, held Song Kuan, who was also dressed in formal clothes, and came to the courtyard in front of the hall. An incense table was set up in the courtyard. The person who came to deliver the order stood with the servants. Only Qin Chixian sat in the carved backrest chair, holding a tea bowl in his hand. Today, he is not wearing a court uniform of the Shangshu, but wearing a winged crown, a collared brown five-clawed dragon robe, a jade belt on his waist, and thick soap boots. The clothes of the prince are prominent and noble. Even though the enthronement ceremony of the princes has not been held, the Office of the Internal Affairs still sent the clothing of the princes and princesses that were driven out this year to the office. Qin Chi hit Song Jin since he appeared, his eyes locked on her. He stood up with one hand on the handrail and took a few steps forward. "Song Kuan received the order!" Qin Chi personally opened the imperial edict. Song Jin and others knelt down and listened to the order. "The emperor ordered the will of heaven to be carried on." When Qin Chi read the imperial edict, his eyes occasionally floated to the kneeling Song Jin, and read it with all his heart, "The Song family, the pharmacy merchant of Huizhou Prefecture, is loyal and brave, and has a clear righteousness. He heard that he generously donated money to help our northwest army fight against the enemy, donated a large amount of food and grass to ensure military supplies, and contributed to the country. In the rebellion of Jianning, he assisted the court in suppressing the rebellion, and made outstanding achievements. I am very relieved and specially appointed Song Kuan, the head of the Song family, as the Marquis of Xiangyi, to demonstrate his virtue... I admire this!" "Thank you, Lord, Longyou!" "Long live my king!" After Song Kuan thanked him, he bowed his body and took the imperial edict from Qin Chi. His hands were trembling with excitement. Qin Chi congratulated warmly: "Father-in-law, congratulations." Song Kuan: This is shameless! When I wrote this chapter, I was very grateful that I was born in the best era and thanked my motherland! Thanks to the Party ~ Chapter 468 The father-in-law and son-in-law talk Chapter 468 The conversation between the father-in-law and son-in-law A "father-in-law" also made Song Jin almost break the defense. Qin Chi felt much better when he saw Song Jin being angry but not speaking. He worked hard for so many days to speed up the rebellion and rewards in the south, for today. Lu Baizhou wearing official uniforms next to him. Now I''m numb. Since Song Jin came out in full dress, Lu Baizhou didn''t know what to say. He was obviously a gentle and elegant beauty. How was it said to have an ordinary appearance before? "Marty Xiangyi, congratulations!" Bai Zhou led his congratulations on the sidelines. Song Kuan smiled and said, "Happy together." Others congratulated Song Kuan one after another. Song Kuan responded politely. Song Jitao stood up and stuffed a big red envelope to everyone. Lu Baizhou and others were very eyebrowed. After almost all, they asked to say goodbye and Song Jitao sent it out. Qin Chi stayed. Let Song Kuan invite him into the hall. Song Kuan was holding the imperial edict in his hand, solemnly put it in a long lacquer box and handed it over to Song Jin, "Jin''er put the imperial edict down and wait until she returns to Huizhou to worship it in the ancestral hall." "Okay, dad." Song Jin took over the imperial edict. Just as she found a reason, she left with the box containing the imperial edict. Qin Chi watched Song Jin leave. It was not until her back disappeared from the corner that she reluctantly retracted her gaze. He knew that Song Kuan was deliberately trying to help Song Jin out, and probably wanted to tell him privately. "How is my father-in-law doing recently? Are you getting better?" Qin Chi looked sideways and happened to see Song Kuan looking at him. He raised his hand to signal Song Kuan to sit in the top position. "The blessing of the prince is much better." Song Kuan did not sit in the head. Selected first place. He thought Qin Chi would sit in the first place, but he didn''t expect Qin Chi to choose to sit in the guest seat. Song Kuan felt a little relieved, "I heard that Jin''er and the prince have divorced each other. Don''t call me father-in-law again in the future, as this will easily lead to misunderstandings from others." "I took the liberty." Qin Chi said in a complicated tone, "Jin''er and I have been married for many years, but I didn''t expect that the first time I called your father-in-law today may become the last time. To be honest, this is not what I want." Song Kuan listened to him seriously. Qin Chi said again: "It was Jin''er who insisted on getting along. I didn''t want to have a quarrel with her, and I didn''t want to ruin our relationship. So I just agreed for the time being. In fact, I regretted it that day." "I never thought of letting her go if I told my father-in-law that I had never thought of letting her go. But I knew that she was different from ordinary women. She trapped her in the back house like a bird breaking her wings. I just wanted to let her fly outside for a while, and when she was tired, she would go home." Qin Chi has made up his abacus. Song Kuan didn''t expect him to be so honest. He, an elder, didn''t know what to say. It took him a while to find his voice, "I understand what the prince means, but I am just an ordinary father. I don''t ask my daughter to be rich and noble, but I just want her to live a happy life. I hope you can forgive me." This is clearly and implicit. This also indirectly shows that he will not help Qin Chi. When Song Kuan saw that Qin Chi''s eyes seemed to be about to turn red. He probably had never seen a man''s emotions reveal this way. He softened his heart and quickly added, "I won''t stop you. If you two can make up, I''ll be happy to see it." Qin Chi, who bowed his head, curled his lips slightly. It was a pity that Song Kuan did not stand on his side, but he also had to make sure that the other party would not become an obstacle. The father-in-law and son-in-law are talking here. On the other side. Song Jin took the imperial edict back to the courtyard. Send away the people who serve. Song Jin sat at the table. Take out the imperial edict, open it and read it. The imperial edict is also very interesting, like the original name was called "Song Family". This "Song Family" can be Song Jin or the Song Family family in Huizhou. Only when the title of marquis mentioned Song Kuan, the head of the Song Family. A woman cannot be granted an official title. This Song Jin is very clear. She put her credit on Song Kuan and was granted the title of Marquis of Xiangyi. From then on, when others mentioned her, Song Jin, they would no longer say that she was the daughter of Hui Shang, but the noble daughter of the Hou Mansion. In fact, according to this little contribution, it is far from the level of being a marquis. Now he is granted a title, which is due to Qin Chi and his eldest son. As the young prince''s grandfather, it is natural to give him a title, after all, this situation was not uncommon before. I sat for a long time. "Tu tuk." I heard a slow knock on the door. Song Jin looked up at the door. The door was opened, and the person stood at the door and knocked on the door to remind Song Jin, who was thinking of something tragic. Qin Chi stood at the door, and he asked in a faint voice: "Can I come in?" The newest XiaoSpeakSendSix9Book͡͡͡Back͡͡͡! "Please come in." Song Jin was too lazy to get up to greet him at this time, "The prince is here, I wonder what is the price?" "Do you have to be so sarcastic?" Qin Chi stepped into the house with a helpless look on his face, his eyes falling on the imperial edict on the table. The imperial edict is opening the stall on the table. The handwriting on it is familiar, and it was written by Qin Chi himself. Qin Chi smiled and said, "Will you blame me for giving your credit to your father-in-law?" "No, I can''t find it." Song Jin knew that his father was granted a title, which had little to do with this contribution. "I don''t know how much effort the prince put into this, but I still want to thank you here." "Just thank you?" "You can stay for a simple meal today." Song Jin politely invited Qin Chi to stay for dinner. I thought Qin Chi would not agree, but Qin Chi agreed, "Then I''m disrespectful." I walked to the table and sat down naturally. Qin Chi and Song Jin chatted about the matter of being granted the title. After receiving the imperial edict, they would also go to the palace to attend the ceremony of receiving the title. The date was set for three days, and someone would come to pick up Song Kuan into the palace. Qin Chi looked at her and said, "You can go into the palace to watch the ceremony." "Do I have to attend?" Song Jin hesitated for a moment. Qin Chi said again: "You are the mother of Linzhang and the daughter of your father-in-law. If you don''t go, they will probably be disappointed." "Your father-in-law is screaming very timidly." Song Jin felt inexplicably frustrated. Even though he knew he had gone back on his word, he still didn''t want to expose it directly. Once it is exposed, he will not restrain himself. As Qin Chi said, Song Jin has been in Beijing for so long, and at first it can be said that she wanted to find her father. Now that her father has found her, she still feels unreasonable if she doesn''t show up. Unless, she will separate her ties with Qin Chi in public. However, she knew that Qin Chi would not give her this opportunity, "I will go." "Well, then you can follow me into the palace in advance, or should you send someone here to pick you up?" Qin Chi asked. Song Jin said again: "I will go with my father." "Oh, okay, then I''ll pick you up and my father-in-law tomorrow." Qin Chi stood up as he spoke. Song Jin was surprised, "What does this mean?" "I have discussed with my father-in-law, and I will go to the palace one day in advance to see the children. My father-in-law hasn''t seen three children yet, so I can''t just be granted the title and ignore the children." Qin Chi''s voice was slow, and it sounded very smooth, without much emotional ups and downs. "Jin''er, the child is also thinking about his father-in-law. They have never seen his grandfather once since they were born." Song Jin could not refuse this reason. In the end, I could only nod. Qin Chi went out with satisfaction. If she stays there, she will probably be angry. Chapter 469 Enter the palace Chapter 469 Entering the Palace Song Jitao arranged a table of good dishes. Song Kuan accompanied Qin Chi to have a drink, but Song Jin never showed up until the next morning. Qin Chi is here again. Connect Song Kuan and Song Jin to the palace. Song Kuan was still in poor condition at this time, but his energy was much better than when he was just recovered. Song Jin had just got off the chariot. "Mom!" A small figure suddenly pounced on him and hugged Song Jin. Song Jin was ignored and almost fell backwards because he was hit. "careful!" Qin Chi helped him in time. When Song Jin stood firm, he let go again with a sense of ease. Song Jin looked down at the little girl holding her thighs, and happened to find that she was dressing very festively today, with bright eyes, and full of joy to see her mother. This made Song Jin swallow his scolding again, but instead, the palace servant who was following Niu Niu was so scared that his face turned pale. Especially when I saw Qin Chi standing behind Song Jin. Qin Chi said lightly: "Qinghuan, haven''t learned the rules well yet? Did the servants fail to do the responsibility, or did you forget?" "Father" Niu Niu looked up and saw Qin Chi, shrank towards Song Jin''s body, and put her face against Song Jin''s dress, as if it was fine, and she muttered: "I was so happy to see my mother, and I forgot it for a moment." "For the sake of your grandfather''s face, let it go today. If there is another time, I will definitely forgive you." Qin Chi just wanted to make this girl stable, and she almost knocked Jin''er down. It''s neither light nor serious. What should I do if something happens? Niu Niu nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice. Xiao Linzhang is here. A palace maid following him was holding a chubby little boy in his arms. When he saw Song Jin, the little boy blinked his big eyes, as if he was very curious about Song Jin. Song Jin first hugged his daughter and kissed her, "Daughter, I''m very happy to see you." The little girl giggled when she was kissed. Then Song Jin hugged his eldest son again. The young man who was about to come forward to salute had his cheeks flushed. "Son, my mother misses you." When Song Jin hugged him, he whispered intimately. Linzhang''s feeling of losing that I hadn''t seen my mother for a long time was instantly filled with it. I wanted to say that I miss my mother too, but I was embarrassed to be embarrassed. My little ears were pink, I didn''t say anything, but I couldn''t hide the joy in my eyes. This is one of the few closeness he and his mother have. It is precious in the heart of the young man. Then, Song Jin looked at his youngest son. Her eyebrows and eyes were gently approaching the little guy. The little guy looked at Song Jin, as if he was confirming something. After a moment, he stretched out his two little fat hands to her, his little body slightly leaning towards Song Jin, looking like he was about to hug her. Song Jin was so soft-hearted that he took the little guy over, lowered his head and kissed the little guy on the cheek, and smelled a scent of milk from his nose, "Good, remember your mother." The little guy giggled, his **** eyes clear and bright. When Song Jin and her youngest son were in love. Linzhang pulled the little girl and saluted Qin Chi first, "I have seen my father." "Well, come and pay homage to my grandfather." Qin Chi looked sideways at Song Kuan, who was being helped out of the carriage. When Song Kuan saw his grandson, his eyes became wet unconsciously. He never dared to imagine that he was caught and he would have the chance to see his daughter and grandson in the future. "Linzhang met his grandfather." Xiao Linzhang stepped forward and took the respect of his junior. The little girl followed suit and bowed forward with thoughtful manner. She called her grandfather respectfully, and her every move was like a little lady, and it was more than 100,000 miles away from her jumping towards Song Jin just now. Song Jin walked over with her youngest son in her arms. Qin Chi reached out and touched the obedient cheek in her arms. She was touching her son with her eyes full of Song Jin holding the child. Seeing that she didn''t pay attention to him, she looked at her father-in-law and turned to Song Kuan and the twins and said, "Okay, you two, help your grandfather back to the East Palace to rest first." "Yes, the child listens to his father." "Dad, I understand. My grandfather is in poor health, Niu Niu will be careful." The twins answered almost at the same time. So he acted on one left and one right, and helped Song Kuan to walk forward. Song Kuan''s old eyes full of vicissitudes were filled with joy, and his old face also smiled and pleated. The little girl talks a lot. While walking, he talked to Song Kuan. Sometimes he asked if he was in good health, sometimes he asked why he didn''t come to see her, sometimes he said that her mother was thinking about him very much, and she always missed him. The little mouth is very sensible, just like a little pistachio, which makes Song Kuan laugh from time to time. Song Jin, who was following the three of them, also had a new understanding of the little girl''s sweet mouth. The newest XiaoSpeakSendSix9Book͡͡͡Back͡͡͡! Qin Chi and Song Jin walked side by side. With children here, the atmosphere between the two is rare in harmony. He smiled and said softly, "Our daughter''s little mouth looks like honey, which is deeply loved by the elders." "Is that so? I saw her just now and was very afraid of you." Song Jin didn''t need to observe carefully, but found that his daughter was a little afraid of Qin Chi. Qin Chi chuckled, "Yes, she is not afraid of anyone except me. I thought about it and I didn''t do anything, but every time she saw me, it was like a mouse or a cat." When Song Jin heard this, he glanced at him sideways. Qin Chi''s back was straight and he continued to gossip, "Our daughter is not controlled by you, and she is usually spoiled by several elders. She is almost lawless. If there is no one who can cure her, I don''t know what kind of temperament I will develop in the future. I can only act as a strict father." What is the point of this statement? Its because theres no mother around! This is a complete hint that Song Jin is back. Song Jin knew that it would be enough to listen to it, "When it comes to those who can teach children, no one can compare to Niu Niu''s breasts. After all, she taught such an outstanding son as the prince." Qin Chi smiled without saying a word. In fact, I was a little disappointed when I saw Song Jin not taking the lead. Song Jin was not unshakable. But the time for the shake was short, because she soon thought of Li. Compared to her, Li, who is a mother, is better at teaching her children, and she has a lot of skills to take care of her in the palace. Of course, if the palace staff were complicated, Song Jin might be worried, but since Emperor Wu of Ming ascended the throne, the harem was very simple, just those old people from the previous palace. It can be said that the current imperial palace is the cleanest among the emperors of the Daxia dynasty and the fewest concubines in the harem. Arrive at the East Palace. No surprise, Song Jin met Helian Pu. Helianpu was still sitting on the chair, his legs were inconvenient. Unlike the past, he was more like a hermit at this time. He has a relaxed eyebrows and a distinctive temperament. It''s like an exiled immortal under the moon, and it feels like riding the wind and returning. Song Kuan first stepped forward to salute. Go to Song Jin to pay tribute. Helian Pu and Song Kuan were polite, and then he looked at Song Jin who was standing aside in Wen Wan and said, "After so long, we have met again. Finally, the father and daughter are reunited and get what they want. Congratulations." "Your Highness is concerned about it." Song Jin lowered his eyebrows and replied, "It is also a blessing for you to get what you wish." "Haha, you have asked Qi''an for blessing." Helian Pu said half-jokingly. Song Jin smiled but said nothing. Chapter 470 A hundred years of cultivation came to the same boat Chapter 470: A hundred years of cultivation come to ferry on the same boat Helianpu talked to Song Jin. Basically, Song Jin answers whatever he asks. He is very concise and very reserved. Helian Pu seems gentle, but in fact he gives people a strong sense of oppression. Few people dare to act rashly in front of him. Qin Chi originally talked with Song Kuan, but when he sat next to Song Jin, lets talk. With him by his side, Song Jin gradually relaxed and spoke a lot more naturally. Song Jin himself did not discover this change. Helian Pu smiled and didn''t expose it. Sit for a while. Boss Qin and Li came, and they exchanged a few more greetings with Song Kuan. After that, Li came over to chat with Song Jin, leaving Boss Qin and Song Kuan to talk. Qin Chi watched his mother take his wife away. Helian Pu, who was beside him, glanced at Qin Chi, "No prospect." A slander brought Qin Chi''s attention back, "Uncle, why am I hopeless?" "How long has it been since I have been coaxing my wife yet?" Helian Pu didn''t know much about the matter between the couple, but he had heard someone mention it. Qin Chi calmly said, "What''s the hurry? This is fun." After saying that, he straightened his head and walked away with his chest. Behind him was Helian Pu''s slightly restrained laughter, and there was another sentence: "Damn, stubborn, hahaha..." Qin Chi left faster. During lunch, Emperor Wu of Ming came over in his regular clothes. Meal for a family. After using the meal, they sat together and savored tea and chatted. Emperor Wu of Ming was unexpectedly easy-going. When chatting with Song Kuan, he would say anything. Most of them were topics related to Song Kuan. He also mentioned Huizhou and Huangshan, which is famous all over the world. "I remember that Huangshan is also called the Three Heavenly Emperors, namely Tiandu, Lotus, and Guangmingding. It is said that it symbolizes the immortal capital that the Emperor of Heaven lives in. It is a reputation as the fairyland on earth. Unfortunately, I have been busy for most of my life and have not had time to see it." "Your Majesty wants to go, you can do it anytime." Song Kuan replied with a respectful attitude. Emperor Wu of Ming smiled, "If you have time, you must go." Then he looked at Helian Pu next to him, "How many years have Pu''er been living there? Do you have any paintings?" "Yes, my father wants to see it?" Helianpu suggested going to the study, where there were several paintings where he went to Huangshan to rest. The three elders moved to the study. Qin Chi accompanied him quietly. However, Li and Song Jin sat aside, accompanied the three children, waiting for the three children to have fun. Li gently waved the palm-leaf fan and whispered: "Jin''er, are you young couple reconciled?" Song Jin smiled but said nothing. Li knew that it was gone when he saw this. "A hundred years of cultivation came to cross the same boat, and a thousand years of cultivation came to sleep together. It is not easy for you and Qi''an to get to this day, so you should cherish it." After pausing, Li said again: "The child is still young and needs his mother''s company. Don''t miss the growth of the children because of his momentary intent. When you think about it in the future, you will inevitably feel regretful." "What you said is very much." Song Jin lowered her head and kept her eyebrows, and responded gently. Li''s clicks to stop. Then he talked to Song Jin about the wife and relatives of various families in the capital, "After the reward ceremony, there will be a banquet. At that time, we will meet these people. It is enough to be well-qualified. But when we see the eldest princess, we should be more respectful." The eldest princess is the mother of Prince Chu. Song Jin only heard of his name and never saw him. Time flies very quickly. Today''s reward ceremony was held very grandly, which can be said to be the biggest event since the new emperor ascended the throne. All civil and military officials will bring their families to attend. At the beginning of the Yin hour, Song Jin woke up. The palace maids came in one after another, holding things in their hands. Song Jin didn''t have to do anything, and someone came to serve her to dress up. In this case, she wanted to cover up her appearance. She could only let it go and put on a formal outfit prepared by the palace maid. After putting it on. Song Jin realized that this outfit was extraordinary. Wearing a seven-district crown, a big red Luo robe, and a shiny cape. The shiny cape is embroidered with clouds and zodiac patterns. Daxia''s clothing has specifications, and different identities are different. Song Jin recalled the clothes that Qin Chi had worn before, which matched her outfit. Therefore, what she is wearing now is probably the clothes of the princess of the county. Song Jin recalled that Qin Chi was named Prince An. The enthronement ceremony of the prince was held, and he said he would wait until she returned to Beijing. Because she insisted on leaving, the ceremony was not held now, and even if it was not held, it was the prince on the nail. Even though he knew that these were intentional arrangements by Qin Chi, Song Jin was helpless now. I can''t wear clothes neatly, so I take them off and draw a clear line, and show others a joke. Even if she was separated, she didn''t want to be the topic of conversation for others after dinner. A palace servant came over with a food box and said humbly: "Report to the Princess of the County, this is the food prepared by the Prince of the County, so that you can eat something first to suffice your belly." "I''m working hard." Song Jin replied in a warm voice. The palace servant opened the food box. It is a small bowl of pasta with clear soup, and a small plate of boiled meat slices and refreshing side dishes. It is suitable for eating in the morning and is also Song Jin likes it. After Qin Qi''s inspection, there was no problem with eating, so he was placed in front of Song Jin. Song Jin was eighty-minute full before putting down his chopsticks. A palace maid immediately handed over mouthwash and warm handkerchiefs. The newest XiaoSpeakSendSix9Book͡͡͡Back͡͡͡! Today, the palace gate outside is wide open. The palace gate is strictly guarded, but it is orderly and full of traffic. Zhengda Street has long been blocked by the government. Ordinary people cannot get on the road. And all those who can get off the vehicles and sedans one after another are famous figures in the capital. These attracted the attention of some early people, and they watched the direction of the palace, imagining the grand occasion in the palace, especially the ceremony of enfeoffment will be held in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and will be presided over by Emperor Wu of Ming. The hour of Mao has just arrived. A palace servant hurried in, "Prince of the County, Princess, Princess is here to pick you up." Afterwards, Song Jin was surrounded by palace servants. I saw Qin Chi waiting outside. Wearing the unique clothes of the prince, you can tell at a glance that he has dressed up carefully, even his hair is meticulously cleaned, noble and unattainable. The first feeling that the two of them stand together is that they are very good. The same elegant and luxurious appearance is unparalleled. Qin Chi took the lead in reaching out to Song Jin. Song Jin hesitated for a moment and then gently put his hand on his palm. Seeing her cooperation so much, Qin Chi smiled slightly. He led her down the steps. Step by step, very steady. There is a palace servant in front of him holding lanterns to illuminate the light, and the sky is about to be bright, so you can see the surroundings clearly in the hazy state. "Jin''er is not angry, I''m very happy." Qin Chi said, looking forward. Song Jin understood what he meant. Is this happy with her cooperation? She has always been very sensible when it comes to major events. Perhaps Qin Chi saw this and encouraged her to come to the palace to watch the ceremony, and asked her to wear the clothes of the princess of the county, and was about to appear in front of him. Wait for the East Palace. They sat on the chariot together. "Today, there are not only the rewards from my father-in-law and others, but also our gifts." Qin Chi told Song Jin coldly. Song Jin was slightly shocked, and then smiled helplessly, "What else can I tell me at once." "there is none left." Qin Chi gently stroked the back of her hand, and the touch was smooth, like cream. The person involved, Song Jin, felt itchy and had a strange feeling in her heart. She subconsciously wanted to pull her hand back, but after two twitches, she not only failed, but was held tighter by him. Immediately, she sighed softly and said, "Why do you have to? I don''t mean to change my mind." "Well, I know." Qin Chi replied without changing his expression, "Jin''er can still do whatever she wants, just like before, and I won''t stop her." These words were like a reassurance, which fell into Song Jin''s heart, "Thank you for your understanding of Prince An." As long as she did not use power and forced her to be detained in the capital, she felt that this person could handle it. At least it is beneficial to her. The chariot is about to approach the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The sound of palace music can be heard from afar, melodious and solemn. Chapter 471 This is too courageous Chapter 471 This is too courageous In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the dragon throne sits high. Emperor Wu of Ming looked heavy. The courtiers were wearing red robes and black veil on their heads, standing solemnly on both sides. The hall is filled with the solemnity after the war, and it cannot hide the joy and expectation of the upcoming reward. Suddenly, Gong Le stopped. The ritual official''s high-pitched reading sound penetrated the tranquility: "Your Majesty is here, and the reward ceremony begins!" "Xuan! Prince An Qin Qi''an!" "Xuan! Princess Song of An County, please meet him!" The sound was like an arrow, shooting through the silence of the hall. The court officials bowed their heads one after another, and performed their manners as rituals. There was no change in each face, but I was very surprised! When female family members enter the palace, they will only attend the following celebration banquets and rarely set foot in the palace. During this period, there were rumors behind the scenes that Qin Chi abandoned his original wife for his new love. Even if the rumors were not known to everyone, the officials present had heard of them. Today, Qin Chi actually showed up in the Palace of Supreme Harmony? This doesn''t mean to change a wife. The court officials looked at Qin Chi secretly, and saw Song Jin again from the corner of their eyes, just this glance. Everyone''s breathing seemed to be stagnant. The whole hall seemed to be quiet. The rumored princess of the county, who is ordinary in appearance, is dignified and gentle at this time, with a worldly appearance, and is astonishingly beautiful as heaven and earth. When they came to their senses, everyone was shocked again and questioned Qin Chi one after another. This is too courageous! He actually started playing with the raccoon cat to change the prince? Letting the new lover directly replace the original wife is even worse than abandoning the wife. I really didnt expect Qin Qian to be such a person! Just... it''s outrageous! Under all kinds of shocking gazes, Song Jin stepped into the Hall of Supreme Harmony with Qin Chi. The enthronement ceremony of the prince, which should have been presided over by officials above the fifth rank, was personally presided over by Emperor Wu of Ming. Qin Chi took the gold book and gold treasure from Emperor Wu of Ming, and it was Song Jin''s turn to take the gold-plated silver book. The moment Song Jin took over the silver book, the big stone in Qin Chi''s heart finally fell. He was really afraid that Song Jin would refuse regardless of the importance, and it would be great now. The two bowed and thanked Emperor Wu of Ming. When the ritual official made a ceremony, the two were about to get up. "Let''s wait!" Master Wen bowed and stood up, "Report to Your Majesty, I have a question and want to ask the Prince An to answer." Emperor Wu of Ming narrowed his wise eyes slightly, "Qi''an, what do you think?" Qin Chi saluted Emperor Mingwu, then turned to look at Master Wen, "I wonder what Master Wen wants to ask?" "Mr. An, who is the woman next to you?" Wen Ge Lao was confident of winning, and finally caught the excitement of Qin Chi''s handle. "It is rumored that Prince An''s wife is not good-looking, and recently it is rumored that you have a new beauty in your mansion..." Qin Chi asked back: "What does Master Ge mean?" "Hahaha, Prince An, what else can Master Wenge mean? Of course, I suspect that you are Li Dai Tao Zombie today." A loud laugh suddenly rang in the hall. Everyone doesn''t have to observe the person. Just by hearing the sound, you will know that it is Duke Ningguo. Duke Ning Guo has always been unrestrained, and everyone is no longer surprised. But today''s people who have such doubts in the palace are not only Master Wen. However, Master Wen Ge said it in public after a fever. However, when the person involved Song Jin heard this, he felt ridiculous and speechless. Qin Chi turned around and looked at Song Jin. Emperor Wu of Ming looked at Song Jin like he said, "Princess An County, do you have something to say?" "When I go back to Your Majesty, I am a woman with shallow knowledge. In the past, I thought that in the hall, the ministers discussed state affairs and behaviors must be reasonable and well-founded, and they will not be able to capture the situation. Today I have really gained knowledge. It turns out that rumors in the market can also be used as a comment." Song Jin did not answer the question positively, but his words were extremely sharp. Qin Chi stood up with a smile, clasped his fists and apologized to his colleagues behind him, but in fact he added to his jealousy: "Don''t misunderstand me, my wife is honest by nature. If you offend anyone, I hope he can''t blame me for this. It''s a truth that ordinary people know. The prince of the county did not expect that Master Wen Ge took it seriously without investigation and moved to the hall." Master Wen Ge blushed when he heard this, "You, are you talking to him? Do you dare to say that the woman around you is the original wife you married in the countryside?" Qin Chigang wanted to speak again. "Enough!" Emperor Wu of Ming said seriously: "I heard that my dear, step back!" Then, Emperor Wu of Ming looked around the ministers below and said with majesty, "If anyone who uses rumors to explain in the future will give me training in the army for three months. I am old, but I am not so confused that I don''t even know anyone''s biological mother." No one dared to say anything now. Including Mr. Wen, he retreated in panic. Anyone with a brain knows that Master Wen Ge is eager for quick success and instant benefits, probably because he was suppressed during this period, which caused him to lose his sense of responsibility. The reward ceremony just started. The newest XiaoSpeakSendSix9Book͡͡͡Back͡͡͡! The court puts Qin Chi''s affairs first because Qin Chi''s current status is outstanding and all civil and military officials cannot surpass him. "continue!" Emperor Wu of Ming slowly raised his hand and signaled the ritual officer to unfold the scroll, which recorded the great military achievements of each hero. With the recitation of merits. The Pei family father and son and other generals took the list. During this rebel civil strife, Qin Chi rescued the late emperor from danger, captured Helian Kai alive and forced Yan Jiangnan to death. Later, he gave advice to the southern army to quell the rebellion and made great contributions. No one dares to question it at the top of the list of heroes. But Qin Chi is now at the highest position, and he will be promoted to become king. Emperor Wu of Ming intended to appoint Qin Chi as the regent. After all, although Qin Chi does not have this title now, he is doing the regent''s work. However, Qin Chi declined, saying that he didn''t want to steal the limelight of today''s generals too much. What I really think is unknown. Emperor Wu of Ming personally rewarded the meritorious officials one by one. All the generals kneel down and thank you. Applause and cheers gradually rose. The atmosphere in the Hall of Supreme Harmony was as hot as a furnace, and everyone was infected by this glory, including the bystander Song Jin. "Xuan! Song Kuan, the Marquis of Xiangyi, met with him!" As soon as the ritual official said this. The courtiers glanced at Song Jin inwardly. Song Jin looked at the door of the hall quietly and said to Qin Chi in a low voice: "You said you asked me to watch the ceremony. Is that what is the ceremony?" "Well, how about it? I didn''t say anything." Qin Chi would not admit that he was really mean. Song Jin curled her lips lightly, "Indeed, there was no slight loss." Song Kuan was helped in. When he approached the middle of the hall, he let go of the eunuch''s hand and knelt down to bow to Emperor Wu of Ming on the dragon throne. Song Kuan was officially enthroned as the Marquis of Xiangyi. Can settle in Huizhou. Marquis is usually granted a title and will stay in the capital. But there are also a few who can leave Beijing. Song Kuan''s title of marquis is honor and can improve social status, which is the so-called change of the family. It does not have real power or fiefdom, but can only receive a salary from the government every year. In this case, living in the capital or Huizhou is not a big problem. Chapter 472 The eldest princess Chapter 472 The Princess Song Kuan was enthroned after his enthronement. The reward is coming to an end. Emperor Wu of Ming encouraged him a few more words and then stepped back first. Song Jin stepped forward to support Song Kuan and said with a smile: "Dad, congratulations." "Haha, happy together." Song Kuan responded with a smile. Qin Chi also came up to congratulate, "This is a great joy. Is my father-in-law going to hold a banquet to celebrate?" Song Kuan smiled and shook his head, "No, I''ll wait until I go back to Huizhou." There was a saying he didn''t say that he knew very much. He didn''t know many people in the capital, so holding a banquet was boring. The three were talking. There are many officials who sneaked into them. At this moment, everyone finally believed that the woman in front of me was Qin Qian''s wife! Someone was ready to come over and say congratulations. But because of the bad etiquette, it is not about being pleasing to you, but about being annoying. Someone in the Hall of Supreme Harmony started to whisper. But strangely, I didn''t leave first. I was so slow that I didn''t know what I wanted to do. Master Wen Ge said with a straightforward expression: "Prince An, I offended you just now, because I was not considerate." After saying that, he bowed and apologized to Prince An. Qin Chi looked at him sideways, replied with a vainly bow, and said as if nothing had happened: "Where is there, Master Wenge is too worried." Instead, he looked around everyone, "You can move to Fengtian Palace. I heard that a famous opera troupe was invited to sing opera." There will be various performances at the palace banquet, including acrobatics, opera troupes and singers singing and dancing. Later, there will be six-art competitions of outstanding children carefully trained by various schools. Every year, people want to make a name for this. Qin Chi and Song Kuan were greeting people. As a female family member, Song Jin only needs gentleness and generosity as a foil. At about the same time, follow Qin Chi out. Halfway through the way, I met the palace maid sent by Li to pick up Song Jin. The banquet for men and women was arranged separately. Song Jin followed the palace maid to meet Li, and Qin Chi and Song Kuan went to the men''s banquet. We are about to arrive at the palace banquet. Song Jin stopped, took out a veil from his sleeve, put it on his face, covering most of his appearance. When meeting the emperor, you cannot wear a veil, so attending a banquet is not so strict. Reminds of the so-called rumors. In order to avoid trouble, Song Jin decided to cover it up, especially after having just experienced the doubts of Ge Lao Wen. The palace servants did not take Song Jin to a crowded place, but came to a side hall. When I met Li again, there was a graceful and luxurious old woman sitting next to her. She was much older than Li, like an elder. "Come here!" Li smiled and reached out to pull Song Jin, introducing the old woman next to her, "This is my aunt, call me." "Auntie." Song Jin saluted with a righteous manner. At this time, she knew who the old woman was, that is, the eldest princess, and she was a sibling with the emperor, and she was indeed the elder of Li. The eldest princess smiled and said, "Is this Qi''an''s wife?" "That''s right." Li replied with a smile. The eldest princess took off a bracelet and put it in Song Jin''s hand. Just as Song Jin wanted to refuse, the eldest princess said, "The elders give it, you must not refuse." Mrs. Li said, "Please accept it, this is my aunt''s wish." Song Jin looked down and was very surprised. This is a jade bracelet with two dragons playing with pearls and pearls. The carving is exquisite and elegant. Just these bracelets are worth a thousand gold when placed outside. Song Jin bowed to the eldest princess Yingying, "Thank you aunt." "Ha, it''s all a family, why are you polite?" The eldest princess looked at Song Jin in a posture, and finally spoke for a while, "Can you take off the veil for a while and let your aunt take a look? The rumors about you outside are really strange, and it makes people curious every time you hear it." "I was rude." Song Jin took off the veil. When the eldest princess saw it, her eyes were stunned. After a few breaths, she sighed: "I just can''t understand your intention to wear a veil. After reading it, I understand." So she raised her hand and signaled Song Jin to put on the veil, "You have done a great job before." This looks too much. It is not a good thing to show it in front of others. There are many examples of man-made disasters in history. However, thinking that Song Jin married Qin Qi''an for many years and had three children, his reputation was still not obvious, and even his appearance was reported to be ugly for a while. This shows that Song Jin is usually very careful about this. When the eldest princess thought of this, she had a good impression of Song Jin. The newest XiaoSpeakSendSix9Book͡͡͡Back͡͡͡! He pulled Song Jin to sit beside her and asked like an elder. Song Jin answered one by one, and Li added a few more sentences from time to time, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. "Grandma, you''re here." A pretty girl''s voice came from the door, "Let Min''er get a meal and think you''re listening to the opera outside." Song Jinxun looked away. A girl entered the door in a breeze. The girl has a round face, a bright smile, and full of vitality all over her body, especially a pair of big eyes, which are not very beautiful, but seeing her is like meeting the sunshine. The girl came in and rushed towards the eldest princess, grabbed her sleeve and began to act coquettishly. Song Jin saw two noble girls coming in at the door again. The two of them came with the round-faced girl, and when they came in, they greeted the eldest princess and Li in a normal manner. The girl with round face is named Su Min, and her father is Prince Chu. The two noble daughters who followed him were the daughter of the Prince of Chu, and the other was the girl from the Duke of Ningguo''s Mansion. The eldest princess turned to smile and introduced Song Jin, "Min''er, this is your cousin Qi''an''s wife. You have never seen her before. Come and say hello." Su Min stared with her big eyes, "Is this the cousin''s wife?!" Su Min immediately covered her mouth, but her eyes looked at Song Jin curiously. At such a close distance, you can vaguely see the extraordinary outline of Song Jinsha''s face under the scarf, and with a pair of eyes that are as shimmering as autumn water, even if you don''t take off the veil, it is still not difficult to see that you are a beauty. "Min''er, okay, cousin." Song Jin smiled with a smile. The girl in blue next to her followed and said, "Hello, cousin''s wife, I am Su Yi, and I am fifth in the family. It''s sixteenth this year. Cousin''s wife can call me Yier or Xiao Wu." "Hello, Yi''er, cousin." Song Jin replied with a smile. Su Yi nodded happily, "I have heard of my cousin''s wife''s deeds for a long time, but I have never had the chance to meet. Today, I finally met someone." Song Jin smiled, as if it was a response. Su Min agreed, "Me too, I am the same. I have long heard people talk about my cousin''s wife. When I saw someone, I realized that my cousin''s wife is different from the rumor outside." "The rumors are not credible." said the quieter **** the side. Song Jin looked at her, "Who is this?" "My name is Ning Kexin. I am the girl from the second wife of the Duke of Ningguo''s Mansion. I have met Princess An County." Ning Kexin introduced herself in a warm voice. Li seemed to recall: "The second house of the Duke of Ningguo Mansion? Is your mother Ling Yingzhen?" "Yes, my mother was born in the Lingding Marquis'' Mansion." Ning Kexin replied appropriately. Li looked at Ning Kexin from side to side, "You are a bit similar to your mother when she was young. When I was young, your mother and I studied together, but we haven''t seen each other for more than 20 years. I wonder how she is doing?" Chapter 473 Out of the palace Chapter 473: Out of the Palace Hearing this, Ning Kexin''s expression flashed with gloomy expression, as if she had thought of something bad, but soon covered it up again, "My mother has not been in good health in recent years and rarely leaves the house again." "What''s wrong? It''s not that her father is pampering his concubine and killing his wife, which makes Aunt Ling ill. Alas, Aunt Ling is too gentle, so that even a concubine dares to ride on her head!" Su Min said angrily. Su Yi glared at her secretly, "Sixth sister, don''t talk nonsense." Su Min then reacted and smiled embarrassedly, "Sister Kexin, I don''t mean to poke your heart." Song Jin didn''t think she did it on purpose. He said it quickly and said it for the time being, but he was still unfair. But this truth is indeed quite heart-wrenching. Its either she has no sympathy or this scene is quite funny. Ning Kexin did not blame Su Min, and said generously: "I know, Sister Min''er doesn''t have to blame herself. This is not a big secret. Many people outside know about it." That being said, there are actually not many insiders. Ordinary people even pay attention to family shame and not to make public, let alone high-ranking families. The eldest princess patted Su Min''s hand and said, "Okay, you three young people go and talk. I still have a few words of personal qualities to tell your cousin." Su Min didn''t dare to open her mouth anymore and turned to Song Jin and said, "My cousin, do we want to go to the show?" "You go, I won''t go." Song Jin jokingly said with a good temper, "I''m all the mothers of a few children, and I can''t talk to the unmarried little girl." No one can say anything about this reason. Usually, during banquets, the married person sits together and talks, while the unmarried person forms a circle. After the three girls left. Li smiled and said, "Aunt, Min''er is very naive and lively." "I know what you want to say, because I am too simple, I am afraid that she will suffer in her husband''s family if she gets married in the future. Who is that? Ling from the second wife of the Duke of Ningguo''s mansion is an example." The eldest princess has lived for more than half of her life, so what else can she not understand. The eldest princess sighed again, "Before this man got married, he loved you innocently and was angry that he was too innocent after getting married, and he couldn''t be his help." "Auntie''s words are reasonable." Li didn''t get into trouble after Ling Yingzhen got married a year later. "I heard that she and her husband had a very good relationship in her early years." "It''s only been a few years, and then my concubine carried one room after another." "It''s all like this." Li sighed. The eldest princess spat at her, "Your family is not like this." "My situation is special. I found a mud-legged man. It is his blessing to marry me. I would not dare to take a concubine if I give him a hundred courage." "It is easy to see whether men feel at ease with you. Your man is about to see you as his eyeballs." The eldest princess naturally knew this after seeing Boss Qin. Li''s cheeks are so old that it is rare that his cheeks are red, "Nothing is wrong." The eldest princess smiled kindly and looked at Song Jin again. Seeing that Song Jin listened seriously, he sighed slightly. Most of the man''s hearts are greedy and lustful. The eldest princess has lived for most of her life and is about to step into the soil. What else can''t be seen through? There are not many powerful families in the capital, and there is a couple who can truly love each other until they grow old. The eldest princess said with some advice: "This woman wants to live a good life, she must first be open-minded." Song Jin''s eyelashes trembled, and she lowered her eyebrows and narrowed her eyes. A gesture of listening quietly as a junior. The eldest princess continued, "Ling''s life was awkward because she was unwilling to accept her husband''s change of hearts. She kept making trouble with her husband, but instead pushed her husband farther and farther away, making love. Without the relationship between husband and wife, if she could think about it and no longer trapped in love, she could also live a good life with the Ling Ding Hou Mansion as her backer. So what if the man''s concubine takes more, she would never be able to surpass her true wife. But what about her? She wasn''t like this, and she still wanted to change her mind when she was old." "She only has love in her mind." Li''s evaluation was very direct. Song Jin agrees with what Li said very much. Similarly, she also felt that the eldest princess was right. The two elders were chatting one by one. After chatting for half a quarter of an hour, Song Jin stood up and left. "Do you want to see the child?" Li said as if he was gossiping, "Good guy woke up in the morning and didn''t see you, and he even had a bad temper for a while." "Yes, I was about to see them." Song Jin asked in thought, she didn''t want to attend the palace banquet too much, and the child happened to be the excuse she took out. Li answered and watched Song Jin go out. The eldest princess also glanced at Song Jin who was leaving, then looked at Li again, picked up the tea bowl on the table, took a sip and said, "You daughter-in-law, I heard that you are not well-known, can you bear the responsibility of a clan wife?" "My family has a simple population, what are the responsibilities that I can take?" Li''s answer was beyond the expectation of the eldest princess. "Even if there is really a big deal outside, she can''t solve it. Isn''t there any Qi''an?" The eldest princess said, "You are good to your daughter-in-law." "Oh, that''s because he has suffered and suffered, his heart has become softer. I don''t want the younger generation to go my way again." Li smiled lightly and his eyebrows were gentle. Seeing this, the eldest princess didn''t say much. Besides, Song Jin left, and he felt relieved. Dont say that the eldest princess is kind-hearted and does not show off her airs when she speaks, but after sitting there for a long time, she is always uncomfortable all over. Qin Qi saw Song Jin looking around and said, "Master, where are you trying to go?" "Return to the East Palace." Song Jin said bluntly. Qin Qi twitched, "Then we are going in the wrong direction, we are going to the left." "ah?" Song Jin was stunned for a moment and then said helplessly, "You are leading the way in front, I am not familiar with the palace." Qin Qi leads the way. The newest XiaoSpeakSendSix9Book͡͡͡Back͡͡͡! He returned to the East Palace successfully. I heard the child''s crying from afar, and I cried heartbrokenly, which scared Song Jin''s pace couldn''t help but speed up. When I entered, I saw Xiao Guaiguai crying. Several palace ladies were coaxing each other in a hurry. "Mom, I want my mother..." The chubby little guy was crying and uh, with two lines of tears hanging on his cheeks. Not to mention that it was so heartbreaking, he cried and shouted to ask for his mother. Song Jin quickly stepped across the threshold, "Good?" Perhaps hearing Song Jin''s voice, the little guy''s watery eyes lit up and he immediately looked at the door. Go forward and carry the child into his arms. The little guy blinked his tears, feeling very aggrieved, and stretched out his fat hand and hugged Song Jin''s neck. Song Jin took out his handkerchief and wiped his tears, "Mom is here, don''t cry." The child wakes up late. Song Jin followed Qin Chi out, and the little guy was still sleeping. As for the twins, there are also palace servants to serve them, and they must get up to study just as dawn. One of the twins is the prince and the other is named princess. There is a palace banquet today that is even more busy than her, the one who is a mother. There are also children among the families who entered the palace. However, the little guy was just over one year old and stayed in the East Palace. After coaxing the child, Song Jin went back and changed the grand costumes of the county princess and put on his regular clothes. At the beginning of the palace banquet, Song Jin did not show up. Later, someone asked about Song Jin. Li casually found a reason to make excuses and sent someone to ask. Song Jin said he would not attend the palace banquet on the grounds that his little Guaiguai was more clingy. This disappointed some women who wanted to see Song Jin. At first there was news that Song Jin would come to participate this time, and someone even brought his daughter over to show his face in front of Song Jin. When she chose a concubine for Qin Chi, she could consider her own girl. Don''t say that this kind of thing is ridiculous. In a wealthy family, the wife is worried about being jealous, which is to show her virtuousness. Usually, it is common for her to take a concubine for her husband after getting married and getting pregnant. From the conversation between the eldest princess and Li. Just listening to the chat content on the surface is nothing, and it makes sense, but it is very interesting to think about it carefully. Song Jin didn''t want to get involved in this matter. Whether Qin Chi takes a concubine or not has nothing to do with her. She and Qin Chi were originally separated, but today they received the silver book in the Palace of Supreme Harmony, but they were just driven to the shelves. Qin Chi learned that Song Jin did not attend the palace banquet and did not see anyone when he left the banquet and came to the East Palace. "Where has the wife been?" Qin Chi asked the palace servant. The palace servant replied humbly: "Go back to the prince, the princess of the county has taken the young master out of the palace." Qin Chi: Chapter 474 Night visit Chapter 474 Night Visit Qin Chi went to the bedroom where Song Jin lived last night. The Princess Qi Zhai Guan and clothing are placed indoors. The clothes were stacked neatly, and there were silver books symbolizing the identity of the county princess. Qin Chi reached out and picked up the silver book, looked at it for a long time, and then gently put it down, "It seems that you are angry?" He concealed her the matter of enthronement. He used the excuse of watching the ceremony to let her enter the palace. Step by step, he finally realized that she really wanted to leave him, but human nature is sometimes despicable. He didn''t want to let her go, and even wanted her to label him forever. "No one is allowed to touch the things in this room." Qin Chi continued to explain indifferently, turned around and walked out. The palace servant lowered his head and responded, sending Qin Chi out respectfully. Qin Chi went back to the palace banquet all the way. There was a woman who was scheming to show her face in front of Qin Chi. The palace servants and guards who were attending him had already received instructions, but no woman could get close to him. She was discovered and stopped by the guards or guards as soon as they emerged. Qin Chi attended the palace banquet as usual, and no one could see abnormalities on his face. Until the celebration banquet ends. In the middle of the moon, Qin Chi left the palace overnight. Go straight to the back door of Jifang Pharmaceutical Store. Qin Ba stepped forward and slapped the door. Qin Chi made a sound to stop him and ordered Lao Huo to climb over the wall and open the door without disturbing others. Lao Huo obeyed the order and climbed over the wall. As soon as he landed, he ran into the secret guard protecting Song Jin. The two stared at each other with big eyes. Old Huo grinned and turned to open the back door. The door opened, and Qin Chi stepped into the threshold without expression. Under the arrangement of the secret guards, there was no obstacle to going in. Entering Song Jin''s dormitory. Standing in front of the bed, he lifted half of the bed curtain. With the dim light, you can see that the bed is big and small, sleeping soundly. Hanging half of the bed curtain, he sat gently on the edge of the bed, looking at his wife and children in a daze. The next day, Song Jin woke up. I found that the little guy beside me had already woken up, staring at Shui Lingling''s big eyes and looked at the top of the bed curiously. Song Jin felt soft and touched the little guy''s **** and found that the little guy wet the bed, "Good, you''re flooding the golden mountain again." "Mom, mom..." The little guy chuckled and shouted. Song Jin got out of bed first and then changed his clothes. There was movement outside. After a while, Mu Ting and her maid brought water into the house. Song Jin finished dressing and went to wash. Then he washed the little guy''s face and taught him how to rinse his mouth. The youngest son was more well-behaved than Song Jinying thought. He woke up early in the morning and never cried. "My son is so well-behaved." Song Jin couldn''t help but kiss his cheek, "My mother almost forgot how good you could cry in the past." Otherwise, she wouldn''t have named Guaigu. It''s really well-behaved now, just as its name is. The little guy giggled again, and the fat little guy even hugged Song Jin''s neck. When Mu Ting saw the interaction between the mother and daughter, she smiled and said, "Young Master is so good, and she doesn''t make trouble." "Yes! It''s so good that people feel sorry for you." Song Jin took the child out. In the dining room, Song Kuan was waiting there. There are a few foods on the table, such as buns and porridge, and side dishes with porridge. Song Kuan was very happy to see the little guy, so he came forward and reached out to hug him, but the little guy turned around and avoided him and shrank towards his mother''s shoulder. "Oh, are you disliked your grandfather?" Song Kuan said in a pretentious voice. Song Jin laughed out loud, "No, I''m not familiar with it yet." "It''s familiar to have my grandfather hug you." No matter how Song Kuan coaxed him softly, the little guy just refused to leave Song Jin''s arms. Song Jin sat at the table in a good mood. Its not that you cant ask the servants to feed the child, its because Song Jin feels that he has less time to spend with the child, and he doesnt want to use his own hands on his own, so he lets the child sit on his thighs and feeds the child patiently for breakfast. Song Kuan, who was beside him, often helped him. The little guy who was not very familiar with him unexpectedly became familiar with him after a breakfast. In the end, he took it away and said he was going to the yard to play. Song Jin finished drinking half a bowl of porridge in one sip, put down the bowl and chopsticks, and the maid next to him handed over a warm handkerchief. The newest XiaoSpeakSendSix9Book͡͡͡Back͡͡͡! Qin Qi came up and whispered, "Master, the young master came last night and entered your dormitory and left until dawn." Song Jin paused his hands, "Midnight?" "Yes." Qin Qi responded. "No one came to wake me up?" Song Jin coaxed the child to sleep last night, and she got tired of herself and slept a little deeper. Qin Qi apologized: "I''m sorry, my subordinates were stopped by secret guards. Please punish me." Song Jin raised his eyes and looked at Qin Qi. Qin Qi had dark eyes on his face, and his skin was much worse than usual, and he obviously had not been asleep all night. This displeasure in Song Jin''s heart dissipated, "You can''t blame you for this matter. You can''t stop me alone. I don''t have to stay today, you go down and rest." Qin Chi has many secret guards around him. He spoke without letting people make trouble, who could stop him? Qin Qi said gratefully, "Thank you, my master." "Go down, I don''t plan to go out today." As long as Song Jin was at home, the troubles outside would not dance with her. Not only today, I havent planned to go out in the past few days, and Im at home and spending time with my children. Then, urge Mr. Jing to compile the medical books as soon as possible. It was Song Jin''s temporary decision to take his youngest son out of the palace. Not only is the child clinging, but mainly her anger at Qin Chi''s proposition. After yesterday''s enthronement in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. This is undoubtedly telling the world that they are still husband and wife. Song Jin left the dining room and did not see his father or child. He asked someone for a while and learned that the grandfather and grandson had actually gone out and said he would go out to visit the market. "Is anyone going to protect me?" Song Jin looked at Mu Ting. Mu Ting replied respectfully: "Yes, the master said he just went around the neighborhood and would not go far." "Okay, let''s take note of their safety." Song Jin said as he walked towards the yard where Dr. Jing lived. In the past, I saw the other person holding a brush in his forehand, scribing on a piece of paper, with a look of concentration and seriousness. Even Song Jin came in without notice. Song Jin did not disturb him, but just walked up to the table and took a look at the drafts stacked on the table. I just looked at the content and didn''t get it to take a look. Sitting aside for a long time. When Mr. Jing finally found her, he said in a close tone: "It''s Madam Song, why don''t you call me when you come?" "Aren''t you afraid of disturbing your old age?" Song Jin said with a smile. Mr. Jing laughed and said, "What''s the matter? It''s not as important that you make this up." Even though he knew he was talking nonsense, Song Jin liked to listen to this, "How is it? How long will it take to make it up?" "It''s not bad, I''ll do it in ten more days." Mr. Jing was so excited when he talked about this. "When the manuscript is finalized, I will go and look for Doctor Zhuo and my old friends. Let them give them some suggestions and see if there are any mistakes. They just need to check for omissions. They have been practicing medicine for most of their lives and have rich experience." "That''s your fault." Song Jin was still very happy after receiving the accurate letter. As long as the manuscript is completed, she can leave Beijing at any time. Chapter 475 The pheasant cant adapt to the phoenix Chapter 475 The pheasant cannot adapt to the Phoenix Nest The palace banquet has just ended. Many people in the capital talked about it. Most of them are the talents of a certain family''s son or a certain lady at the palace banquet, which are deliberately and naturally. There are few rumors related to Song Jin, but there is only a rumor that she looks like a fairy. But not many people believe it, and its not that no one has seen Song Jin before. Those people confirmed it. Song Jin is not ugly, but she can''t be called very beautiful. The upper circle is different. You know more than the people outside. As long as some things are not deliberately spread by people, they will rarely be publicized. For example, this time, although they had met Song Jin, they would not talk about it publicly due to Song Jin''s identity. At most, I would like to privately mention a few words with the person next to me, and then remind me not to offend Song Jin when I see you in the future. In the circle of noble girls. This news is like a drop of water dripping from a oil pan. It exploded instantly. Some people who are very interested in it will make an appointment to go out for a lake. On the river where lotus flowers bloom, a cruise ship rowed slowly on the river. At first, it sang and danced, but later it became quiet, and all the servants were sent out. Only a few noble girls in Beijing were left. Among them are Su Yi and Ning Kexin. It seemed like she talked about Song Jin inadvertently. When she mentioned her appearance, some people believed it and some people didn''t. In the world, men love women with both talent and beauty. A man with both talent and beauty is also admired by women, not to mention that this man is powerful and can only win Qin Chi''s Song Jin, which is particularly conspicuous. There are countless women in the capital who envy her behind their backs. "It''s very good. If you go and check it out, it''s clear. You live in Jifang Pharmaceutical Shop in Xicheng." A woman in brocade clothes chuckled, "It''s strange that this county princess is not living in a good mansion and insists on living in a small yard." "It''s probably because the pheasant cannot adapt to the Phoenix Nest." Ning Kexin smiled sarcastically. "Haha, Sister Ke Xin''s words are very appropriate. Isn''t it just a pheasant? No matter what, you can''t become a phoenix." "That''s right, which of us is not better than her? That''s to take the lead. If we were in Huizhou at that time, there would be no share." A noble girl said sourly, and after that, she drank a glass of osmanthus wine on the table. Then several people spoke. They kept pulling and stomping on Song Jin, as if they were happy and comfortable. Everyone is here, but I am not afraid that someone will spread it. There are not many people who gather here today who have never had any thoughts. Therefore, when talking about this topic, there are not so many concerns. Of course, I can only dare to step on Song Jin. They didn''t dare to say a word about Qin Chi. Su Yi said in a faint tone: "It''s different now. Song''s father is also a marquis, no matter how you say she is, she is also a marquis. Even if she debuted halfway through, her title will be real. When the young prince ascends the throne in the future, it will be no problem to be named Duke." Speaking of this, Su Yi looked around everyone, "Don''t forget that Song was the perfect queen at that time, and would be the existence we look up to. I advise you to keep your actions a little bit, and don''t implicate your father, brother and family." When they heard Su Yi''s words, the few people were thinking. Suddenly another person sneered coldly: "That''s what she wants to live until the little prince ascends the throne." As soon as this man''s words came out, everyone caught a glimpse of her. Just as he was staring at me, the girl was shocked to speak out, her face changed slightly, and she quickly asked for a supplement, "I mean that the current emperor is healthy, and she can live for less than decades. Haha, there is no other meaning, no!" "What are you doing so nervous? I didn''t misunderstand." The girl in the upper throne smiled lightly. Someone said, "I didn''t misunderstand either." Ning Kexin giggled and said, "Liao Dandan, I didn''t misunderstand either." Su Yi just smiled and said no. She couldn''t even see this sour and jealous face. She had thought about Qin Chi earlier, but it was not for him, but his current status. With this, everyone changed the topic. Until the setting sun sets. The cruise ship docked and the girls went ashore one after another. Su Yi and Ning Kexin took the same carriage and embarked on the way back. There is a quietness that is rare in the car. Ning Kexin said, "Su Yi, are you planning to give up?" "Yes, I''ve put off my mind." Su Yi replied calmly. Ning Kexin asked with some advice: "Why? Your legitimate mother is a Buddha-mouthed and snake-hearted person, and you are not young, so it''s time to plan for yourself as soon as possible." "Last time in the palace, you didn''t see anything? My grandmother seemed to want to marry Su Min to Qin Qi''an, so she just nodded. I couldn''t stop thinking about it." The fate of the concubine''s daughter has never been decided by herself. It is usually used by the family for marriage. If you are lucky enough to marry a poor Jinshi or a noble son, you will be given to the powerful and concubine by your family as a concubine. If you are lucky enough, you will be given to the powerful and concubine by your family. If you serve others with lust, you will be in control. Even if Su Yi''s grandmother is the eldest princess, she will not be able to marry freely. Ning Kexin looked at Su Yi suspiciously. If the eldest princess wants to marry her daughter, it will not be Su Yi''s turn. "This reason sounds normal at first glance. Think about it carefully... why do I so disbelief?" The newest XiaoSpeakSendSix9Book͡͡͡Back͡͡͡! "snort!" Su Yi snorted coldly, "I feel ashamed of myself, can''t I?" "I don''t even think of you..." "Believe it or not!" Su Yi glared at Ning Kexin angrily, "For the sake of our good sisters, I advise you to stop thinking about it and change your goal." Su Yi didn''t want to say the true thoughts. Even if this is a good sister, she won''t say it. After meeting Song Jin that day, Su Yi suddenly realized that Qin Qian used to say that he would not abandon his wife, nor would he take concubines again, not for the decency of a scholar. He has always been hiding a delicate girl in a golden house and eats better than any man. He is definitely a scheming man, no wonder he is powerful. Ning Kexin has also seen Song Jin. But what Ning Kexin said on the boat just now... Su Yi looked at Ning Kexin in complicated ways, just as he met the other person looking over, and smiled at her. Su Yi opened her mouth and wanted to say something and then held back. It''s casual, I can''t persuade you. Anyway, she won''t get involved! Love whatever you want. When he returned to the city, Ning Kexin suddenly ordered the coachman to go back to the house by taking the Xicheng route, saying that he wanted to buy something from Xicheng market. But now everyone knows that Jifang Pharmaceutical Store is very close to the market and can be seen in a hundred steps. At this time, the market has long dispersed. Su Yi didn''t know what Ning Kexin wanted to do. But there was no sound to stop it. The carriage passed through Xichengfang City. Ning Kexin lifted the curtain of the car and looked at the shops on both sides of Xicheng Street. Most of the people living here are ordinary people, and only a few people who are dressed can be seen scattered among the people coming and going. At the nearest arrival, you can walk to Jifang Pharmacy. Ning Kexin''s pupils suddenly shrank, and her eyes fell on the edge of the street. An elderly man asked a chubby little kid to sit on the neck and walked forward happily. Around the old and the young, there are still several servants. The servants held various children''s toys and snacks in their hands. "What are you looking at?" Su Yi asked sideways. Ning Kexin put down the curtains, "It''s nothing. It''s just that I saw an old man teasing my grandson just now. I feel a little emotional. I think if I get old in the future, I don''t know if I can get my children and grandchildren around me." "A man hasn''t married yet, why do you think so far?" Su Yi smiled with an embroidered handkerchief covering her lips. Passing by another rouge shop. Ning Kexin stopped the coachman and asked the maid outside to buy a box of rouge. It was the intention of coming to Xicheng before. Chapter 476 Someone is here to make things worse Chapter 476 Someone is here to make things worse Five days passed on time. After lunch. Song Kuan played with his little grandson, without any adult burden at all. A big man lay on the ground happily, playing a horse for the little guy, making the little guy giggle with joy. Song Jin looked at the grandfather and grandson helplessly, and took out the messy children''s toys in the house, for fear that the old and the young would fall down when they were playing. "Dad, children don''t need so many toys. Also, there is no need to buy a few of the same ones. Look at the ones in this room, you can use them to open a children''s toy shop." Song Jin nagged while cleaning up. "Hmph, how can I have only one good grandson of Song Kuan? Of course, I buy as much as I have." Song Kuan is becoming more and more like an old child now. What can Song Kuan do? I can only indulge it! In order to avoid Song Kuan''s embarrassment, she would also send her servants intimately. Just at this moment. There was a movement from the door of the house. Song Jinxun muttered, "Who will come at this time?" "Boss, I have something urgent to ask for my opinion." Mu Ting''s voice came from the door, "I just heard a noise from the pharmacy lobby, as if someone was causing trouble." Song Jin and Song Kuan looked at each other. Someone makes trouble, but the person who comes is not good. "Father, I''ll go and take a look." Song Jin said without thinking. Song Kuan hugged the little guy and stood up, "Don''t, Jin''er take care of you, I''ll go out and have a look." He is here, and there is no reason why he wants his daughter to come forward. When Song Jin saw Song Kuan insisting, she did not rush to go there, but the person still hugged the little guy and followed Song Kuan. However, she did not go to the lobby of the pharmacy, but stood in the yard inside and listened to the lively. Mu Ting and Qin Qi followed. Song Kuan came forward. After listening to it, you will know what it is. Someone broke his leg and was put into Jifang Pharmaceutical Shop. Today, Song Jitao happened to be away and was taken care of by the shop''s client. When he saw a patient carrying him in, the client told him that this was just a medicine village and there was no doctor in the hall, so he asked the other party to go to another clinic for medical treatment. Usually after the guy explains, the patient will leave. However, people today dont know what happened, and insist that the guy deliberately refused to save people, shouting to let the doctor come out. If you say you dont save someone, you will smash the medicine shop. Several people came over, and they looked like servants guarding the hospital. In addition, Song Jitao, the people who arranged to protect the Song family''s father and daughter in the pharmacy, were crowded with people in the lobby. "Everyone, are you here to make trouble?" Song Kuan came out and asked him first. He followed more than a dozen servants around him, which seemed quite scary. "We don''t have a fixed doctor in our Jifang Pharmaceutical Shop, so no one nearby doesn''t know about this. You have to come to us to find a doctor." "that is!" When the pharmacy shop saw someone coming, his waist was straightened up, "Master, the young one told them, but these people just didn''t listen." Song Kuan looked at the patient who was thrown in the lobby. He was a 20-year-old servant. He had a serious injury to one leg. He just used medicine to stop bleeding and blood was still seeping out. "You have the energy to make trouble here, so no one is worried about the injured? His injury seems to be delayed, and the wound on his leg is bleeding." He pointed to the person with broken legs. The injured person was still awake, his face was so painful that he was hideous. He twitched from time to time, but he bit him to death and did not speak. "We want to meet your boss!" A maid dressed in a very rich manner stood up and said. Song Kuan glanced at her. This maid was standing behind the troublemaker. If she hadn''t spoken, he wouldn''t have noticed her. So, Song Kuan said, "I am Jifang''s boss." "Nonsense! It is rumored that Jifang Dong''s family is Song Huaijin, a young man, and you are so embarrassed to pretend to be him." The maid immediately jumped out to refute. Song Kuan smiled and said without a smile: "I am Song Huaijin''s father. Tell me, which grave are you from? I''ve never thought about finding the wrong place in front of my mother''s tomb?" "You, how did you say!" The maid jumped out again, pointed at Song Kuan and wanted to curse. "That''s what I said." Song Kuan has been caring for so many days and has recovered well. He is not as thin as before, and he has flesh on his cheeks. He has been the head of the family for half his life, and his aura can still be intimidating. What''s more, Song Kuan is now in his title. The maid started to hesitate when she heard this. It is obvious that Song Jitao is not here, and as long as you choose this time to cause trouble, Song Jin will come forward in the future. But depending on this situation, my father is here. There is no need for Song Jin to come out at all! Song Huaijin is Song Jin''s secret. It''s not that anyone who is interested cannot find it out, but no one will expose it in public. Not far outside the pharmacy, there was a carriage parked. The maid in green who was paying attention to the development of the situation outside the shop hurried back to the carriage and stood outside the car window and reported in a low voice. "Idiot, I can''t find out the news, I''m leaving." There was a woman''s scolding in the car. The green-clothed maid answered quickly. The newest XiaoSpeakSendSix9Book͡͡͡Back͡͡͡! The carriage began to leave slowly. The green-clothed maid went back to the medicine shop and whispered a few words to the rich girl. Then the rich maid said to several servants, "Come on, since there is no doctor here, you guys hurry up and carry the person to the nearest clinic." "Okay, Miss Chun''er." Several servants quickly lifted the injured and evacuated. The maid left the medicine shop early. When she opened the door to do business, Song Kuan did not let anyone stop them, even though she knew that the other party was interested in finding fault. After hearing the whole process, Song Jin didn''t know why the other party suddenly evacuated, but the person who came was not good, "A Qi, go and check which family these people are from." "I''ll do it now." Qin Qi bowed and turned around and retreated, quickly leaving the medicine shop. "Mom! Mom! Grandmaster, Grandmaster." The little guy pointed to the direction of the pharmacy lobby, and then heard Song Kuan''s voice and wanted to go over. Song Jin patted his little butt, "Isn''t you happy to have a mother hug? Do you just miss your grandfather that way?" "Zuzu, Zuzu..." "It''s the grandfather!" "Zuzu." The little guy was speechless and couldn''t correct it for a while. Song Jin gave up, but Song Kuan heard the sound, opened the curtain and walked in. "Oh, my grandfather''s heart, come and hug me." Song Kuan''s face was cold when he came in. When he saw the little guy, he immediately laughed out of his anus. Song Jin let the little guy change his arms. "Has Jin''er offended someone recently?" Song Kuan asked while teasing the little guy. Song Jin shook her head, "I have been living in seclusion recently and I have not seen many people, let alone whom I provoke." "That''s you''re getting in the way of others." Song Kuan deserves to be a big old man, and he said it to the point, "The person who comes to make trouble is a servant, and there are two little maids involved. The person in charge seems to be a maid. This is not a big deal, it is very similar to the method of a woman from the back home." It means a trick of small-scale quarrels. Song Jin nodded, "I asked Aqi to check it out, and I''ll know who it is when she comes back." "Just know what you know." Song Kuan was so happy that he teased his grandson and did not talk about this anymore. Chapter 477 Bye Chapter 477: Journey to the post "Master, I arranged for someone to come to the medicine shop to cause trouble. The person behind the scenes was Liao Dandan, and his grandfather was Liao Yong, the Minister of War. "Qin Qi went out to make an appointment and came back to report after half an hour. Song Jin tried hard to recall, "I don''t know this person, and I have never had any intersection." Miss Liaos family openly came to provoke? What are you planning? Song Jin sat in the study and pondered. Soon, when Song Kuan learned that Qin Qi was back, he came over to ask, "The person who caused trouble suddenly withdrew. The thunder and rain were loud, and I don''t know what the intention was." "Let me think about it." Song Jin recalled what happened in the pharmacy shop. The other party seemed to want to call her out, but Song Kuan was blocking her and she didn''t need to come forward. "Dad, I''ve thought about this matter. It''s 80% related to Qin Qi''an''s side, or it''s for him. But this kind of thing is not easy to tell based on personal speculation." Song Kuan has no connections in the capital, so he doesn''t know as many people as Song Jin. "Do you want to contact Qi''an? Inquire with him?" "Contact him for this little thing? How do you say it? You can say that someone can look at him and come to trouble me?" Song Jin said this, but his tone was not very agreeable. "We have no losses in this matter. People can say that it was caused by indifference. However, this Liao Dandan doesn''t seem to be very smart. In the past, the person who danced to me in front of me was not very smart, and he was always polite and could only speak politely, at least he could live up to his face." What did Song Kuangang want to say? Qin Qi''s report came from outside the door: "Master, Manager Song has something to ask for a meeting." Hearing this, Song Jin was slightly stunned. The matter of the pharmacy shop will alarm them, that is, Manager Song has something to do and goes out. Song Jin said, "Please come in." Song Jitao hurriedly stepped in, "Boss, I heard that someone came to the pharmacy shop to cause trouble? I was not in the shop at that time, but there was something wrong with the bookstore." "What''s going on?" Song Jin asked with a frown. "It was the person sent to pick up books, and the person from the bookstore refused and asked the person in charge to go over and talk." "I asked before, didn''t it go very smoothly?" "Yes, this time I don''t know what happened, so I insisted on the person in charge. I went there and the other party did not agree, saying that I was not the person in charge." "Do you want me to go?" Song Jinxin sneered. If no one makes small moves behind the scenes, Song Jin would not believe it, but this method is not enough. The pharmacy made trouble and wanted her to show up. The person from the bookstore detained the book and wanted her to show up. This is her staying in vain and refusing to see guests. Is it a big worry for some people? Song Jin asked, "How many sets of books are there this time?" "Two hundred sets, every two hundred sets are extracted, and four times have been mentioned. This is the last time." "Is Zhengyang Bookstore considered a breach of contract this time?" "Does the boss want the yamen to intervene?" "No?" Song Jin asked back. Song Jitao was stunned, "This is OK." "Then you go to the bookstore tomorrow, and the other party will still hold on to medical books, so you will report it to the official directly." "yes!" Song Jitao''s heart was shaking. Businessmen usually value harmony. At least for several days, no one would think of the government. According to Song Jin''s usual style of conduct, he would not have exposed this small problem to the yamen. It''s different now. The bookstore''s move is like a test. If Song Jin used the method too warm and soft, it was like a soft persimmon, and maybe anyone would dare to come forward and pinch it. In that case, will her life be gone? Wait for Song Jitao to go out. Song Kuan, who had listened quietly on the side, threw the little guy upwards, making the little guy giggle, "Is Jin''er''s move trying to shock the tiger?" "I didn''t think so much, but I just didn''t want some people behind the scenes to think that I was easy to bully, so that everyone would not want to step on me in the future." Song Jin was very impatient to deal with such a thing, and it was inexplicable. These people dare not come to Qin Chi directly. So I always think about coming to her. Song Kuanyu was worried, "Would you like to invite some more guards? I''m worried that someone will take action against you." Not now. Song Jin knew that these people were just temptations. "Qin Chi''s back house is very clean now, and there is no clear rumor about which family he would get engaged with. Until it involves personal interests, no one will risk killing me without knowing it." "You haven''t thought about it. Are there really people who don''t know what they know?" Song Kuan was still worried. Song Jin simply said, "I have a secret guard around me." Song Kuan was stunned after hearing this, "Son-in-law sent it?" "It was arranged by the former son-in-law." Song Jin was not aware of it before. She was able to enter her dormitory openly in the middle of the night in Qin Chi. No matter how slow she was, she knew the problem. Song Kuan knew that someone was protecting his daughter''s safety behind his back, so he relaxed and hugged his little grandson and walked out happily, "Then I''ll go play with Xiao Guai. If you have something to do, be busy first. Don''t get tired of yourself. I''ll let the kitchen make you a nourishing soup later." Song Jin smiled and watched the grandfather and grandson walk away. "Mu Ting, give me the posts I sent these days." Song Jin ordered Mu Ting who was guarding. Mu Ting responded and soon took the posts thrown on the bookshelf in the corner, with a large stack. I know she lives here. It is not easy to send posts here. Song Jin put aside the invitations to various banquets and picked out more than twenty letters of worship, just to come to visit the door, but handed them over first due to etiquette. As long as she responds and has agreed on the time, she can visit her door for convenience. The time for submitting the post to the post is after the palace banquet. Song Jin saw the person who sent the letter to the mansion. The origins are not simple. There are the Ningguo Duke''s Mansion, the Minister of War, the Lingding Hou Mansion, the Princess Mansion, and the Chu County Prince''s Mansion, and several other families, which almost recruited most of the top powerful people in the capital. The people who wrote the posts were quite interesting. About half of them were the mistresses of the family, and the rest were not the wife of the eldest wife, and even had favored concubines, who gave her a greeting with her family''s reputation. "Li family? Xu family? Wen family?" Song Jin was very surprised. Mu Ting took a sneak glance and said, "The three parents are living together." "That''s right, it''s all together. Look at the posts from the Duke of Ningguo''s Mansion. It''s quite interesting. It''s actually a noble concubine from the second wife who wants to see me, but it feels outrageous when she sees it." "It is not a secret that the second master of the Ningguo Kingdom favors his concubine and destroys his wife. The children born to the concubine are more shameless than the legitimate child. This precious concubine gave birth to a daughter but has not yet been married. She ranks fifth in the mansion. She is stupid and rude." Mu Ting recalled what she had asked before and was very disgusted with Miss Ning Wu. Song Jin thought about it. Last time I heard about the rumor of the Duke of Ningguos Mansion in the palace. A person like Ning Guogong is bound to be uneven in descendants, and Song Jin felt sorry for him in his heart. After reading it once, Song Jin pulled out the Minister of War, Mrs. Liao''s greeting letter, and handed it to Mu Ting, "I''ll go to the Liao family and say, I''ll be free tomorrow morning." Mu Ting took the reply in response. Turn around and walk out quickly. Chapter 478 Liaos family comes to the door Chapter 478 The Liao family comes to the door Song Jin knew that he would not be in danger, so he decided to meet these people. No matter how these people talk about her behind their backs, they will be polite when they come to her. Song Jin knew that this kind of confidence was given by Qin Chi. Qin Chis attitude towards her now. Many people in the capital are afraid even if they look down on her. Song Jin knew that he was about to leave Beijing soon, so he didn''t want to be kept in mind by these people. Song Jin thought about it and called Qin Qi again, "Do you know who the master behind Zhengyang Bookstore is?" "It seems to be the property of Prince Chu." "Is he stumbled on me so?" Song Jin showed suspicion. Qin Qi shook his head, "Although Zhengyang Bookstore is the property of the Prince of Chu, the person who manages it is the eldest son of the Prince of Chu. His son is very mediocre. The one who really talks behind it is his wife Xu, who is the eldest granddaughter of Xu Ge Lao." "There are both the Prince of Chu''s Mansion on both sides." Song Jin took out another post to pay homage. I flipped through a bunch of prayer posts and pulled out two more. All three of them are from the Xu family of Chu County Prince''s Mansion, and they can''t wait. Song Jin picked out the closest date and handed it to Qin Qi, "Another arrange for someone to go to the Prince''s Mansion to say that I will have time tomorrow afternoon." "Yes, I''ll make arrangements now." Qin Qi took the letter and went out. Time is so tight, and its time to see two guests in one day. If the guest knows, he will inevitably feel neglected, and Song Jin seems to have completely ignored this. What''s more, the real emphasis is to make an appointment in advance and how the whole family will prepare to treat guests without losing politeness. As the saying goes, sweep the bed and wait, and welcome you with your back. But Song Jin made such arrangements, and he almost put his indifferent care in the open. The second day is coming in a blink of an eye. Early in the morning, the servant got up as usual to clean the courtyard. Song Jin got up to wash and wore regular clothes. A phoenix-tail hairpin is added to the head, jade beads and earrings are hanging on the ears, and a jade bracelet with two dragons playing with beads and beads on the wrists. The jade pendant worn around the waist will sway gently with the pace. The overall clothing is relatively simple. The golden silk and auspicious clouds are embroidered in the hem of the clothes, like embroidered decoration. Just because she stood there gently, without any expression, she gave people a sense of calmness, elegance and indescribableness. The concierge came to inform and said that there were guests coming. The person who came was Mrs. Liao from the Minister of Wars Office. Of course, she was not only her here, but also brought her eldest daughter-in-law. Song Jin abides by etiquette and comes out to welcome him. Mrs. Liao held a sandalwood crutch in her hand, dressed in brocade, and a gold bracelet in her hand. Her hair was meticulously combed and her face was full of wrinkles. It was still not difficult to see that she was a beauty when she was young. The girl is supporting Mrs. Liao. In his prime, he was graceful and graceful. But when he came in, his eyes were locked on Song Jin. He was stunned for a moment. Song Jin, who had no appearance, seemed to have seen what the magnificent yard was shining in this "simple" yard. Song Jin said politely: "The old lady is here, and she is in a bad mood to welcome her." "I have seen Princess An County." Mrs. Liao bowed slightly and Song Jin replied half of the salute. Mrs. Liao touched the girl beside her without any trace, "Dandan, come and pay tribute to the princess of the county." Liao Dandan came back to her senses and bowed to Song Jinying again, "Dandan paid homage to the princess of the county and pays homage to the princess of the county." "You''re welcome, you''re a pretty and lovely person." Song Jin smiled, making people unable to guess what she was thinking. For some reason, Liao Dandan always felt that Song Jin''s smile was dazzling. She wanted to glare back, but she knew that the occasion was wrong, so she quickly lowered her head to cover it up. She pretended to be shy on the surface, but she felt crazy jealous. Liao Dandan is different from some noble girls. She really fell in love with Qin Chi, not the power behind him. Since the emperor ascended the throne last year, he saw Qin Chi in his costume for the first time, surrounded by many ministers. At that time, a girl''s heart quickly fell. Relying on the favor of his family and the support of Mrs. Liao, he clamored to marry him, but it was not passed on to the outside, and Mrs. Liao''s housekeeper Youdao. Mrs. Liao said politely: "I''m here to visit today. If you have any trouble, I hope the princess will forgive me." "What''s the saying? Old Mrs. Liao can come, and the glory will shine." Song Jin led the man into the hall. Four servants followed in, carrying two vermilion wooden boxes. Song Jin asked in surprise at the right time: "Old lady, what is this?" "It''s some of the Liao family''s intentions." Mrs. Liao ordered the servants to open the box. Inside a box is a head and face. Ingenious materials and exquisitely made. The hair crown is inlaid with pearls and jade, which is decorated in gorgeous colors and is made by famous teachers and is very expensive. There were three cloud brocades in another box. Cloud brocade is precious and rare. As the saying goes, it is as brilliant as clouds, and every inch of brocade is gold. Only royal families and noble officials are qualified to use it. Song Jinqiu glanced at her eyes lightly, "What''s the matter with such a big deal in the old lady?" Hearing this, Mrs. Liao''s smile froze. Before coming here, I thought I had to sit down and greet for a while before finding an opportunity to express my purpose. Now that I havent even drunk the tea, Im going to get to the point? But Song Jin dares to ask, does Mrs. Liao dare to answer? She lived a pampered life for most of her life and was used to talking to others and playing tricks. She was suddenly so straightforward by Song Jin, which made people confused for a while. Therefore, I was a little cautious. Liao Dandan, who was standing beside him, raised her jaw slightly, "What else can it mean? Of course, I hope you nodded and allow me to enter the door." "shut up!" Mrs. Liao scolded, "Every girl is from every family, so you are not ashamed." This is their purpose, but it was just presented. It was a situation that Mrs. Liao did not expect. She raised her old eyes and paid attention to Song Jin''s face. Seeing that the smile on Song Jin''s face remained unchanged, she felt a little relieved. Immediately, Mrs. Liao sighed, "It made the princess laugh. It was all my family''s misfortune. I raised a debt collector who owed her in my previous life. I have met Prince An last year and admired him. I have been searching for death at home for more than a year. Today, I am a shameless person to visit the princess, just to ask the princess for an opportunity..." Song Jin showed an interesting look, "Miss Liao doesn''t mind being a concubine?" "I like being his person, so I don''t mind the status of a real wife." Liao Dandan showed arrogance, which was a bit arrogant. "If a man like Prince An, you can marry him, you are getting a bargain. You can''t stop someone who comes in later." "If you don''t stop me, I won''t stop me." Song Jin chuckled lightly. At this moment, the maid brought tea. Song Jin walked to the main seat and sat down, "Please take a seat, take a sip of tea and talk slowly. Yesterday, a servant in your residence broke his foot and insisted on carrying it to my pharmacy for medical treatment. I wonder how the person is?" Okay, much better. Liao Dandan panicked when she heard this, and looked at Mrs. Liao guiltily, and then said dryly, "The Princess of Lao County is thinking about it." Mrs. Liao heard something was wrong with this, and it was not appropriate to ask now because of the occasion. However, Song Jin said he would not stop him. This was a good thing, but her tone was too ridiculous, which made it difficult to tell the truth about the false. "The princess of the county means that if my grandson comes in, he will choose a day to carry the person into the mansion." Mrs. Liao tentatively said. Song Jin shook his head, still smiling, "I don''t have to decide this matter, but I can pass on the Liao family''s meaning, and I hope you can get what you want." "You know your appearance!" Liao Dandan was very satisfied. Mrs. Liao scolded her again, "Dandan, don''t be rude! She is about to get married, and she looks childish." Grandmother! Liao Dandan stepped forward and hugged Mrs. Liao''s hand and acted coquettishly. Mrs. Liao deliberately put a stern face on her face and said to Song Jin with a helpless look on her face: "Don''t be surprised by the princess of the county. We spoil her too much. We will trouble you in the future." "The little girl has the true nature." Song Jin had a good temper throughout the whole process. Mu Ting and Qin Qi, who had looked at the whole process, felt inexplicable and did not know what Song Jin meant to do this. After talking a few more words, Song Jin picked up the tea bowl. It is precisely to serve tea and see off guests. Mrs. Liao was also a tactful person. After saying a few polite words, she asked for goodbye on the excuse of something. Song Jin stood up and gave the person to the carriage. Wait for the Liao family''s carriage to leave. Song Jin turned around and walked into the door, and the smile on Furong''s face gradually faded away. Chapter 479 Resist the generals Chapter 479: Rebel Generals After noon. Another guest came to the door. Xu appeared surrounded by his servants. Garment is rich and full of pearls and jade. From the gate of Song Jin''s house, his slender eyebrows frowned slightly, as if he was thinking, or as if he was looking at the surroundings. Song Jitao was welcomed at the door. Song Jin sat in the hall, never changing her clothes. I got up in the morning to greet Mrs. Liao because the old lady was an elder, and as for Liao Dandan, she ignored it. The person I want to meet this time is Xu. He is a person of the same generation as Song Jin. Xu put his maid''s wrist and said, "Is Manager Song the housekeeper here?" "I am the shopkeeper of the pharmacy." Song Jitao replied in a humble and arrogant manner. Xu asked again: "Is your master still safe? I heard that Marquis Xiangyi also lives here to rest?" "You will see my master in a while." Song Jitao said that it was equivalent to not saying it. Xu didn''t expect that this person would not get in. After walking a few steps, her steps suddenly stopped. She lowered her head and saw the toes, and then the servants she was following him to see. One of the maids beside him knelt down quickly. He picked up the dead leaves that she almost stepped on with her toes, and wiped the stone slab under Xu''s feet with a handkerchief. It seems that it has been wiped clean, and Xu can leave. Xu almost couldn''t maintain his smile on his face. She asked with disgust in her eyebrows: "Shopkeeper Song, I''m very curious. Your master is not rich, so why do you have to live here? Is this a Feng Shui treasure land?" Song Jitao kept smiling and continued to lead the way. Xu was a little indomitable, and said with a slight smile, "In the past, any family in the capital would feel that the host was neglecting the guests. Hahaha, fortunately, I heard that Princess An has always lived a simple life and could not even afford to invite a decent person to sweep the floor." This house is very ordinary. It is not even as bad as the worst house under the name of Xu. Song Jitao smiled and didn''t get angry, "It''s my fault. In the morning, I saw everyone working hard to entertain the old lady of the Liao family and the others. I forgot that there were still guests in the afternoon, so everyone was on vacation. Don''t worry, the servants who swept the floor are not there, and there will definitely be no fewer maids serving tea. Mrs. Da, please come in." The group stopped in front of the hall. Xu should have stepped in, but she raised her eyebrows, "What did you say just now? Did the Liao family visit this morning?" This is outrageous! She was actually receiving two guests a day, and she was ranked last. She even dared to say that even the servants were on vacation! Do you look down on their Prince Chus Mansion? ! Xu wanted to leave when he looked up inadvertently and saw the beauty sitting dignifiedly on the main seat of the hall. I was stunned for a moment. "An, Princess An County?" Xu was surprised. Song Jin looked at Xu, calm and cold, and turned to Song Jitao next to Xu, "Go and instruct his servants to serve tea to Mrs. Da." "yes." Song Jitao responded respectfully. Turn around and go out. At this time, Xu''s family was not advancing or retreating, and they were stuck in the threshold. She came with purpose. I finally saw Song Jin, but I couldnt leave without saying a word, right? No one in the outside world knows that Song Jin is hard to see than a princess. After struggling for a while, Xu chose to go in and came to Song Jin with light steps. Xu said, "I have met the princess of the county." "No need to be polite, please sit down." Song Jin raised her hand and signaled her to sit down. Xu''s attitude became much more restrained, and he thanked him and sat down. A maid served hot tea. Song Jin said bluntly: "Why did you stop us from picking up books in Zhengyang Bookstore? "Oh, that''s a misunderstanding." Xu received a reply from Song Jin yesterday and asked someone to send a message to the bookstore. Therefore, Song Jitao had already taken away the remaining medical books this morning. "The flood washed over the Dragon King Temple. At that time, I went to the bookstore to inspect and saw those medical books. I thought someone had printed them illegally, so I asked someone to deduct them for a few days and investigate them first. Yesterday I learned that it was Princess An County, so I immediately informed me." After saying that, Xu stood up. He bowed to Song Jinying with an apology. With this worship, Xu believed that Song Jin had no right reason to make things difficult for him. Song Jin curled his lips sarcastically. But soon the corners of the lips returned to normal. Xu looked at the knowledgeable and polite on the surface, but in fact his arrogance was about to overflow, far less than Mrs. Liao''s thoughtfulness. At least he brought heavy gifts to him. After waiting for a long time, I didn''t see Song Jin talking. In the end, Xu took a step back, "This matter is wrong. To apologize, I have a villa on South Street that I can give it to you, as an apology." "Oh, then you''re so polite." Song Jin replied indifferently. When Xu heard this, he was grateful on his face but despised him. As expected, I was born as a businessman, and I was able to pass on a yard and my horizons were limited. The vigilance he had just raised turned to relax a little more, and then, Xu deliberately or unintentionally led the topic to his sister-in-law Su Min. All of Su Mins good words. Of course, the focus is on Su Min''s simplicity and scheming. Its a woman who doesnt want her husband to take a scheming concubine. Xu is a veteran and knows it very well. But she said a lot of things, and Song Jin would often answer, but after a long circle, there was no progress. Until the time is getting late. Song Jin served the three-meet tea to see off the guests. No matter how unwilling Xu was, he still couldn''t ignore him. When stepping out of the Song familys yard. As soon as the breeze outside blew, my mind, which was blocked, became mostly awake in an instant. Maybe she made a mistake today. She underestimated Song Jin! "Mrs. Dae walked slowly." It was Song Jitao who came to see him off again. Xu Shi beautifully glared at him. Even without looking back, he got on the carriage and left. After Song Jitao sent the person away, he went back to the study to report to Song Jin. After about half a quarter of an hour, Song Jitao withdrew from the study. Song Jin marked the story of what happened in Jifang Pharmaceutical Store yesterday and recorded it all the words and deeds of Liao Dandan. Wait until the ink marks are dry. Close the booklet and put it in the secret compartment. Since this day. Song Jin did not reply to anyone''s visit. There were often noble ladies or ladies appearing at Jifang Pharmacy Store, and some even jumped in front of Song Jin to make trouble for Song Jin. Song Jin is a stable match. In the future, the people jumping in front of her will record every word, action, every move, carefully and impartially. Compiled into a book. Half a month later. Song Jin asked someone to give the booklet to Qin Chi. Along with the booklet, there is also a list of gifts. Good guy! What a big fortune! Song Jinyanming donated the things on the list to the previous turbulent areas in the southern region to rebuild their homes for the people. The war in the south has just subsided, and it is time for money to be used everywhere. This money is equivalent to a timely help. Not only that, Qin Chi took the booklet and took the opportunity to clean up the court. Eliminate corrupt officials and open a statute to obtain scholars. No one expected that Song Jin''s ordinary move would cause a shock in the officialdom in the court. When all the officials knew the cause, it was just because some ignorant women came to Song Jin, and when they were still complacent and thought Song Jin was a dough piece. The others handed over them. Even their families will be implicated and punished to varying degrees, and it is a frustration in their hearts! And Song Jin caused all this. I am packing my bags and will leave Beijing soon. Chapter 480 parting Chapter 480 Farewell The Minister of War Office. Liao Shangshu blamed his wife. After cursing, he left with an angry look on his face. Mrs. Liao''s face turned red by anger, and she almost breathed in one breath, but her eyes turned dark and she fainted. The children and grandchildren on the side exclaimed. "Mom!" Grandmother! "What''s wrong with mother-in-law? Come and ask the doctor to come." The woman next to her quickly ordered the servants. The old lady lives in the yard, and there was a chaos of war. The doctor from the government came here for a check-up, but if nothing unexpected happens, he is angry and amazed. After recovering, Mrs. Liao woke up. But she had no face to open her eyes and simply pretended to be in a coma. "No wonder my father was angry about this. My son heard that he was scolded by the emperor today and asked him to go home to rectify the house. When will he understand the matter and go back to work? Also, you didn''t discuss it with your family before doing it." The old man of the Liao family was actually angry that his mother was a good decision. Mrs. Liao opened her eyes and said, "Are you blaming me?" "No, my son dares not." Mr. Liao quickly denied, "I''m so shameless to rush to send the girl to be a concubine." Mrs. Liao was so angry that she held her chest, and she looked so breathless that she was so scared that she hurriedly stepped forward and patted her back. Mrs. Liao shook off Mr. Liao''s hand and said, "Get out! Don''t come to look for me again for Dandan in the future. If something happens, do you not seek justice for me, and you will be embarrassed by me?" When I was old, I was even presented with someone. How can the old lady who has been so popular for most of her life bear it? Even if no one understands her, she will push all the mistakes on her head? "Don''t be angry, your mother will hurt your body." Mr. Liao''s expression of being angry but not speaking made Mrs. Liao even more angry. Mrs. Liao smashed the pillow at him, "I''m sure your baby daughter, in order to be a concubine, she has already gone to the front of her original wife to find fault." "Dandan is still so young, don''t talk nonsense." "Get out! Get out of here!" Mrs. Liao drove everyone out of the bedroom. Today, not only Liao Shangshu was scolded by Emperor Wu of Ming, but many people were scolded, such as the Prince of Chus Palace, the Xu family, etc., who asked them all to go home to rectify the Hous house. How can people who cant even control their own family do their official duties well? Ability is questioned. This is not just a small matter. If it were a trivial matter, these people would probably not be so angry. It was the Jinyiwei who began to intervene in the investigation. For a moment, everyone in the capital was in danger. Even some people who had just started fighting for power and profit were so scared that they were suppressed and began to work diligently. For example, no one dares to extend his hand to the imperial examination announced this time. Qin Chi finished the last memorial, slowly leaned his back to the back of the chair, and rubbed his sore right arm with his left hand. Qin Ba walked in quickly, and after saluting, he approached Qin Chi, and reported in a low voice: "Young Master, the wife is leaving the capital." Qin Chi''s expression stagnated. Immediately got up and quickly walked out of the hall. He rode quickly to the gate of the yard behind Jifang Pharmacy. Sure enough, I saw more than a dozen carriages in front of the door, and some people were in and out, and they carried wooden boxes onto the car. Song Kuan was still standing in front of the door. There was also a little guy riding on Song Kuan''s neck, which was his youngest son. Qin Chi and others appeared on horseback, and Song Kuan soon discovered it. Throwing the reins in his hand to the guard beside him, Qin Chi quickly walked over and bowed to Song Kuan and said, "My son-in-law has seen his father-in-law, is his body better?" Father-in-law again? Song Kuan pulled the corner of his mouth. Dont know if you should respond, or not? So Song Kuan pretended to be stupid and didn''t bother with this issue. "The blessing of Prince Toan is much better. Are you here to pick you up on me?" Qin Chi''s eyes fell to his youngest son, "No, I came here to see Jin''er." Go, people are inside. Song Kuan pointed to the door behind him. Qin Chi lowered his head and thanked him again, and then walked in quickly. That anxious look was really hard for him to stop and greet Song Kuan. Come to Song Jin''s yard. Mu Ting was instructing her servants to move things. Song Jin sat at the table, checking the manuscript in his hand. This is the manuscript of medical books that Mr. Jing finally confirmed two days ago. She originally didn''t plan to be in the bookstore in the capital, but now she is making things difficult for the bookstore, and she will not print it in the capital. Put the manuscript into the box. Suddenly, from the corner of my eyes, I saw a tall figure appearing at the door. Song Jin looked up. Qin Chi seemed to walk towards her in a leisurely manner. But the thin sweat on his forehead revealed that his heart was not as calm as the surface. Song Jin slowly withdrew his gaze and stood up to greet him politely. "Do you have to leave Beijing?" Qin Chi''s tone was restrained and depressed. Song Jin lowered his eyes, "It''s time to leave Beijing. If you drag it on, it''s winter. It''s not suitable to rush." "Return to Huizhou?" "Yes, go back to Huizhou." "Didn''t you think about telling me?" "..." This sentence cannot be answered. Song Jin really didn''t think about it, "I originally planned to go to the princess''s mansion later and send it over." Then say goodbye to Li. That''s all. Song Jin picked up the wooden box containing the manuscript on the table, bowed to Qin Chi, and took a few steps behind the door. Close to the door. She turned around without hesitation. Go away with big strides. Qin Chi stood there murmurly. Until Song Jin''s back disappeared, he remained motionless. The servants on the side didn''t even dare to vomit, and even stopped moving things. They knelt down unnaturally, not daring to look up. It took a long time. Qin Chi walked out anxiously. Until I followed Song Jin, I paused again at a distance of more than meter away from her, and then I took my steps lightly and followed her slowly, but my eyes always fell on the back of her head. Stepping to the front door. Song Kuan saw his daughter. Naturally, I saw Qin Chi following his daughter again. Song Jin could not see Qin Chi''s expression at this time, but Song Kuan could see that there were not many expressions on his face. He could see that this man felt like he was about to be broken. "Mom! Mom, hug." As soon as the little guy saw his mother, he immediately leaned towards her. Song Jin was a little absent-minded. As soon as she heard her sons shouting, she immediately took her son over and handed the box to Song Kuan. Song Jin held his son and rubbed his cheek against the little guy''s face. He felt very reluctant. He should have sent the child back yesterday. But she was reluctant to let it go. It is a day to delay. When the mother and the mother are intimate, it will not prevent the servant from being busy. Mu Ting asked everyone to make an increase in action. When everything was ready, Song Kuan, who was standing beside Qin Chi, silently bowed to Qin Chi, stepped onto a carriage, and shouted through the window: "Jin''er, it''s time to set off!" "Ah? Oh, I understand." Song Jin pressed his forehead against his obedient little forehead, "Mom is leaving, begrudgingly talk to him and grow up well." "Mom, mom..." The little guy seemed to realize the separation. A pair of chubby arms, holding Song Jin''s neck hard, and flattening his mouth, wanting to cry whether he could cry. Song Jin stuffed the child into Qin Chi''s arms and gently stroked the child''s cheek, "Take good care of the child and don''t let them be hurt." I will. Qin Chi subconsciously hugged the child. Song Jin lowered his eyebrows and bid farewell to Qin Chi Yingying. The father and son just watched Song Jin turn around, and got on the carriage without any hesitation. The carriage in front began to move forward. The coachman got on the shaft and shook the whip. Go! The horse stepped away. The wheels were rumbling and the team moved forward slowly. Qin Chi, who was standing in front of the door, held his son without saying a word. The carriage where Song Jin was sitting slowly drove past his eyes. The curtain of the window swayed gently, but it never opened. Qin Chi''s heart seemed to be blocked by a big rock. The pressure made him feel a little painful even when he breathed.
