For several days in a row, the weather was extremely wet and cold.

The yamen public hall has high ceilings and drafts, so it is extraordinarily gloomy and cold.

Therefore, a few more carbon basins were prepared, and Chen Sijing and others sat around the desk, meticulously reviewing the accounts.

Cong Mingzhang took people to visit various places, and after several days in a row, he didn't find any problem with Zheng Wuji.

Chen Sijing looked at the accounts for a long time, and his eyes were a little tired.

Knowing that Xu Chunjun and Zheng Wuji were not there, he went to sit on the patio in the backyard.

Zi Ling came over with tea, and said like Chen Sijing: "Master Chen, drink tea."

Chen Sijing hurriedly thanked him, and took the tea with both hands.

Although Ziling is a servant, she is also Xu Chunjun's personal maid.

Chen Sijing never neglected her.

Ziling and Chen Sijing are also old friends, and they got acquainted with Chen Sijing not long after they came to Beijing.

It's still ahead of getting to know Zheng Wuji.

Moreover, Ziling knew Chen Sijing's character. At the beginning, he still regretted that the girl could not marry him.

Although Chen Sijing came here to investigate Zheng Wuji by order, Zi Ling believed that he would act impartially and would never bring any personal grievances.

"Master Zheng and his wife have been out frequently these few days, what are they doing?" Chen Sijing didn't intend to pry, he just wanted to say a few words to Zi Ling.

"My lords don't know that there has always been a bad habit in Chenzhou. Every family is unwilling to raise more children, so many babies are drowned or smothered to death by their parents when they are born." Zi Ling said truthfully, "Our girl knows After hearing this, I couldn't bear it.

So I discussed with the adults how to get rid of this bad habit.All in all, although this matter violates the law, firstly, the people will not raise officials and will not be investigated, and secondly, the law will not punish the public.

Thinking that education should be the main thing, and those who have more children will be exempted from labor for one year, and they will be given food and clothing.

That's not enough, we girls still have to go to these people's homes to persuade them, to move them with emotion, and to understand them with reason.

It's just hoping to save one more life and less killing. "

"It turned out to be like this! This is really a benevolent deed with immeasurable merit!" Chen Sijing couldn't help but feel emotional after hearing this, he knew that Xu Chunjun was not a mediocre fan.

Now that I hear that she has done such a good deed, I admire her even more from the bottom of my heart.

"Who says it's not? Save one life and build a seven-level pagoda. Our girl saved hundreds of lives." The person Ziling admires the most is Xu Chunjun.

It is said that a man can bend and stretch, but Ziling has seen what true flexibility is from Xu Chunjun.

I think back when the Xu family fell, they lived under Wei's hands.

Xu Chunjun is cautious, silent and clumsy.

At that time, the Wei family and several of her children believed that Xu Chunjun was just an honest and obedient concubine.

But whenever the family is in danger, Xu Chunjun will step forward again, regardless of gains or losses.

After marrying Zheng Wuji, she assumed the responsibility of the housekeeper, managed by doing nothing, and dug out Zheng Long and Zheng Dahu, a pair of moths.

It also manages the Zheng family in an orderly manner.

Up to now, as the wife of Zhizhou, she can and can do more things, and she has never shied away from it, and she is determined to benefit the people.

"Zi Ling, you come to Chenzhou now, do you miss the capital?" Chen Sijing asked looking at a wisp of flying clouds in the sky.

"Master Chen hasn't returned to Beijing for many years." Zi Ling couldn't help but sigh, "It's a lie to say that you don't want to.

But I have been serving the girl since I was a child, and I will follow her wherever she goes, which can be regarded as being at ease with the situation. "

Chen Sijing finished his cup of tea and went back to check the accounts.

Looking at his back, Zi Ling sighed.

I hope Chen Sijing can also meet a good marriage as soon as possible.

When Cong Mingzhang came back in the second half of the day, his horse was startled and ran into the mud, making him dirty too.

So when you come back, you have to take a shower.

After he took a hot bath and changed into clean clothes, Chen Sijing came over to talk to him.

"Did you gain anything this day, my lord?" Chen Sijing asked.

"It's still the same as a few days ago." Cong Mingzhang sat down and said, "Even if there are occasional small mistakes, they are also the mistakes of the people under his command, and he can't be blamed."

Zheng Wuji's time in office was short, and he did a lot of good things, but he really couldn't find out the bad things.

"By the way, Mr. Chen, how is your account checking?" Cong Mingzhang asked Chen Sijing back.

"Two-thirds of it has been checked so far, and all of them are correct." Chen Sijing and the others brought special personnel from the capital to check the accounts. These people are familiar with the accounts and can find out any mistakes immediately.

Although Cong Mingzhang is the queen's man, he can't fabricate charges out of thin air, let alone Chen Sijing by his side.

He also knew in his heart that Zheng Wuji probably couldn't find a reason this time, but even if it was a routine matter, he had to finish what was supposed to be done meticulously.

After another half a month, Cong Mingzhang and others finally finished the inspection.

Return all documents to Zheng Wuji.

"Master Zheng, we have checked many times these days, and there is no corruption or fraud in your office. Those people are really false accusations." Cong Mingzhang said, "We will report the truth to the Holy Majesty when we return to Beijing."

"My lords have worked so hard, I'm just panicking." Zheng Wuji thanked him hastily.

"Master Zheng, you love the people like a son, and you govern well. I will tell you the truth when I go back." Chen Sijing is a gentleman, and everything Zheng Wuji did in Chen Zhou was indeed for the benefit of the people.

Such a good official should be commended.

"Master Chen is too generous, I really don't dare to do it." Zheng Wuji was very humble, "These days, everyone has worked really hard, now that it's over, it's time to relax.

If you don't dislike it, let me be the host and play in Chenzhou for a few days. "

"We have been here for a long time. Now that the inspection is completed, we should return to Beijing immediately and return to our mission. There is no delay." Cong Mingzhang said, "We appreciate Mr. Zheng's kindness. If there is another chance in the future, we will come here again bother."

"Even if we can't stay for a long time, we still have to show our face and show our respect." Zheng Wuji laughed, "Isn't that too much?"

"Master Zheng must not spend money, otherwise it will be outrageous." Cong Mingzhang did not refuse this time.

Sure enough, Zheng Wuji did not prepare extravagant things, but local flavors, which are not expensive.

After the banquet, these people set off to return to Beijing to return to their orders.

Zheng Wuji personally sent them to the boat, and only came back after seeing them go far away.

At this time, Huaiyang Palace, Yao Zheng was having a headache.

The tea on the table was cold, but he didn't take a sip, just stared at the broken chess game in a daze.

Although his father said that those who went to sue the imperial court have become useless chess, and they should abandon it, but he always felt that it was too heartless to do so.

He didn't dare to show it in front of King Huaiyang, because what his father hated most was his indecision and the benevolence of women.
