Chapter 62

Feng Zhang couldn't help but sneered, "Xu Ji, County Lord of Wancheng, you are so brave!"Who gave you the power to open the fields privately!
He took out a handkerchief to wipe his cheeks, and asked, "Just now I heard the magistrate said that he wants your head, so what's going on?"

"Master Mingjian," Liu Er frowned, "The villain's mother-in-law didn't live up to her expectations, she gave birth to six daughters in a row, and two of them died on the way because of running away from famine a few years ago.

"Two of them went to the county to help others, at least they are better than us digging food in the soil, isn't it?

"Another one died of starvation within a few months of birth, and the other one is at home.

"No, my daughter-in-law is pregnant again, and life is hard these days. Even if there is a relief from the county lord, she has to tighten her belt. Otherwise, my mother-in-law will be in confinement and rely on me alone, how can she support a large family? ?

"It just so happens that my girl is sick again. Think about it, I'm her own father, so I can't ignore her. Isn't this the family man's decision that she can't support her anymore? There's nothing we can do...

"Who would have let the county lord know about this, insisting on making me continue to see a doctor for that dead girl, our modest family fortune has been wiped out, and I still have to raise my son..."

Feng Zhang rolled his eyes, stroked his beard with his hands, and said in a dark voice: "Liu Er, what do you mean, the county lord is trying to make things difficult for others?"

"Isn't it!" Liu Eryi patted his thigh, "Oh, after the county lord comes, let us listen to her regardless of the big and small things. If we don't do what she says, we will either have nothing to eat or no land. Kind of, if you don't make it right, you'll have to give me a fat beating..."

Feng Zhang's eyes shone brightly, "Then you are willing to be the head of the county?"

"Get out?" Liu Er was full of doubts, "What does that mean?"

Feng Zhang looked around to see if there was no one around, and said in a low voice, "It's just following up with the official to report the county magistrate..."

"Ah!" Liu Er took a step back, shaking his head like a rattle, "No, no, no, this is impossible!"

Feng Zhang coaxed: "As long as you are willing to be the head of the county, I promise not only to buy you a house in the county, but also reward you with 100 taels of silver!"

Liu Er's eyes widened, and his eyes were shining, "Really?"

Feng Zhang smiled when he saw that he had a good relationship, "Of course! I will do what I say!"

Liu Er bowed his head and thought about it for a long time, then suddenly shook his head in disappointment, "No, no, not only money, you have to help me find an errand, and you can't be too tired..."

"Success. No problem!" Feng Zhang promised, "As long as you can do it, I can do it too."

Liu Er gritted his teeth, "That's right! Let's do it this way! But, my lord, it's not a villain who can't trust you. It's hard to reconcile accounts with such empty words..."

Feng Zhang smiled and nodded: "You are quite scheming."

Liu Er scratched the back of his head embarrassingly, "Hey, I really saw our boss suffer such a loss back then."

Feng Zhang asked the servant for a pen and paper, wrote a letter of guarantee, and handed it to Liu Er.

Liu Er was illiterate, so he asked him to read it again, and then pointed out what he didn't understand, and asked Feng Zhang to revise it and transcribe it again, and then put it in his arms like a baby.

The two made an appointment for the time and place of their next meeting. Feng Zhang also asked Liu Er to give some scattered money, and then he took his servants to look for Song Qingzhai and Xu Ji.

With the evening wind blowing in front of him, he felt that the depression in his chest had dissipated a lot. He thought triumphantly that if Xu Ji went to prison because of this, he would be able to take out from her mouth the words His Majesty wanted before the General King rescued her. anything!
