I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 404 Finally Leaving
The case of Liu's death is clear, even her son Liu Dazhuang will not sue, not to mention Mrs. Pang gave 100 taels of silver as compensation.

"Miss Zhan was frightened this time. The right to this field is my apology. Please accept it with a smile." Mrs. Pang said softly, her watery eyes were full of apology. After all, the matter was caused by the Pang family's field. of.

In the crowd, Master Chen's expression changed suddenly, and he wanted to speak, but no matter whether it was Zhao Tongzhi in official uniform, or the rich and precious Mrs. Pang, they were all big figures that Master Chen couldn't afford.

So no matter how anxious this meeting is, no matter how worried that the land in hand is gone, Master Chen can only remain silent with a bitter face.

Zhao Tongzhi didn't say anything, this was a private matter between Mrs. Pang and Zhan Feiyu, and it was inconvenient for him to interfere as they were both female relatives.

In addition, the 100 mu of land looks like a lot, but it is only a thousand taels of silver. Ordinary people can't earn so much silver in their lifetime, but for the family of officials, 1000 taels is really nothing.

Smiling, Zhan Feiyu refused without any hesitation, "Ma'am, I am not frightened. Besides, I will leave Suzhou City today. To me, this field is nothing more than tasteless."

This is the truth. The reason Mrs. Pang sold the land was because she wanted to leave. For the [-] acres of land, she had to leave someone to take care of it.

Mrs. Pang hesitated for a moment. She had a gentle temperament, so naturally she would not force it. Besides, she also knew that Zhan Feiyu was not short of money.

Suddenly remembering something, Mrs. Pang said to Bai Lian beside her, "There happens to be a box of pastries from Xiang Zhenji in the carriage, bring them quickly."

Master Chen is dumbfounded now, the compensation just now is still worth a thousand taels of land, and now it will become a box of pastries. Is this the style of the official family?
If this matter were left to him, Mr. Chen felt that he would vomit blood in anger. Who would want pastries when there is fertile land?No matter how expensive Xiangzhenji's pastries are, a box of pastries can't be sold for a tael of silver.

Bai Lian soon came over, holding Xiang Zhen Kee's pastry in both hands.

Looking at the exquisiteness of the pastry box, you can tell that the pastry tastes very good, and there is a limit of ten servings per day. Reservations are not accepted, so we can only send someone to line up at the door of the shop before dawn.

Mrs. Pang was very sincere, and Zhan Feiyu couldn't refuse, "Thank you, madam."

Seeing this, He Nuan immediately took the pastry from Bai Lian, and this matter was considered a turning point.

After half an hour.

"Master Zhao, since there is nothing else to do, I will take my leave first." Zhan Feiyu signed his signature and planned to leave. He planned to leave in the morning, but the delay was almost over.

Zhan Feiyu was a purely innocent disaster, Zhao Tongzhi asked the little official to keep the confession, "I will go to the Yamen and the official will present the case file to Lord Yao for review."

There is a sealed file in the yamen, and Lord Yao's signature and seal on the file. If someone uses Liu's death to frame Zhan Feiyu in the future, it will definitely not work.

Zhan Feiyu saluted Zhao Tongzhi affectionately, "Thank you, my lord."

After a while, the two carriages left slowly. Through the window, Zhan Feiyu looked at Mrs. Pang standing by the side of the road, always feeling that this was a bit weird.

"What's wrong with Miss?" He Nuan asked.

At first, she was also worried that Niujiao Village's threat of death was to harm the reputation of the young lady. After Mrs. Pang came, He Nuan raised her vigilance again, but by now the carriage had left, but nothing happened.

Zhan Feiyu looked back at the pastry on the small table, "Open it and have a look."

He Nuan is proficient in pharmacology, if the cake is drugged, it will not escape He Nuan's inspection.

After a while, He Nuan put down the pastry and wiped his hands, "Nothing unusual."

But even so, He Nuan would not let Zhan Feiyu eat this pastry, not afraid of ten thousand but just in case.

"Check the wooden box again." Zhan Feiyu spoke again.

Without any hesitation, He Nuan took out all the six-color cakes in the box, carefully inspected the boxy wooden box, and said when he knocked on the bottom of the box, "There is a layer inside."

With a click, the wooden box split open in He Nuan's hands, and there was a register in the interlayer. He Nuan confirmed again that the register had not been smeared with drugs, and then handed it to Zhan Feiyu, "Is this the one Mrs. Pang mentioned before?" The roster?"

Before, Mrs. Pang planned to use the roster as an exchange condition to find a future for her two sons, but Zhan Feiyu rejected it. After the news of the roster spread, all parties crucified Pang's mansion. The forces restrain each other, and Madam Pang's side is temporarily safe.

He Nuan did not expect that Mrs. Pang would finally hand over the roster to Zhan Feiyu in this way. Thinking of Mrs. Pang's gentle and elegant gesture when she spoke, a stern look flashed across He Nuan's face, "Mrs. Hand over the sweet potato to the young lady to ensure the safety of the entire Pang family."

No matter who gets the roster, those who don't get it might turn their anger to the Pang Mansion, but now Pang Tongzhi has gone crazy. When it comes to the prince in the palace, it is too easy to deal with Mrs. Pang.

But the roster is now in the hands of Zhan Feiyu, and the attention of all parties has fallen on Zhan Feiyu. Mrs. Pang escaped safely. Although this method is useful, it is also vicious and insidious.

"Miss, why didn't you refuse?" He Nuan looked at Zhan Feiyu who was looking through the roster in puzzlement. Mrs. Pang's words were full of mistakes and omissions.

He Nuan also stayed in Suzhou Prefecture for more than a month. Zhan Feiyu loves to eat, and He Sheng also queued up to buy Xiangzhenji's cakes. It was really going there before dawn.

But Mrs. Pang came here at Shen Shi, and someone was killed at that time. Since Mrs. Pang hurried over to deal with it, how could she remember to put Xiangzhenji's pastries on the carriage?
Not too much, Zhan Feiyu's eyes still stayed on the roster in his hand, which not only recorded the officials of various counties under the jurisdiction of Suzhou Prefecture, but also recorded in detail the evidence of this person's corruption and violation of the law under his name and official position.

Up to a county magistrate, down to the county government's police or village officials, and even the names of some merchants and scholars. Most of the officials are corrupt, and some stupid officials are carrying life lawsuits on their backs.

Just like the name that Zhan Feiyu saw at the moment was a master of Suzhou Prefecture, and his wife was his teacher's only child, which should have been a good story.

But who would have thought that his teacher and father-in-law died at his hands, the purpose was to slap the property of the Yue family, his heart was as sinister as a beast.

Although this master Juren never replaced his official position, he took over the Yue family's private school. He has also taught several scholars over the years, and he is quite prestigious in the county.

The bumpy carriage is really not suitable for reading things. Zhan Feiyu closed the list after flipping through a few pages, "Since Mrs. Pang wants to throw the list to me, even if we refuse this time, she can send someone to fall in the Behind us, wait until the next landing place to send the roster over."

"The news that the roster is in the hands of the lady has probably spread all over the Suzhou government." He Nuan was still uneasy, and suddenly asked: "Then Mrs. Pang planned to kill Mrs. Liu?"

As the lady said, if Mrs. Pang is determined to throw the roster to the lady, there is no need to use such a roundabout method.

"Master Chen is notorious. The Pang family has already fallen and scattered. At this time, Mrs. Pang will sell the land to the greedy and harsh Master Chen, making the Pang family worse?" Zhan Feiyu laughed. Something was wrong, and Zhan Feiyu didn't understand until Mrs. Pang appeared.

"That's right, that piece of land is only a hundred acres, even if Mrs. Pang wants to sell it, there is no need to rush it. She can wait for the rumors to subside and sell it in a year or two. It won't be cheap for ten taels of silver per mu. "He Nuan will also understand now.

Mrs. Pang is selling it now, even if people in Suzhou Prefecture want to buy it, they dare not get involved with the Pang family at this time, but after a year or two, this field is just outside the city gate, so it is definitely easy to sell.

Mrs. Pang is not short of more than 1000 taels of silver. Why sell the land to Mr. Chen, and finally forced Mrs. Liu to be killed on the spot. If Mr. Chen really bought it, maybe people will die because of [-]% of the rent .
