Space at hand: Pick up a prince to farm

Chapter 100
Since she wants to see it, let her see it!

It would be better to put the person to death, and he would make her look good.

Before Song Chen went in, Song Dashan pulled her and said, "Xiaochen, we don't want to wade into muddy water."

Song Dashan didn’t want to get involved in Old Man Song’s affairs.

Song Chen gave him a reassuring look, "Dad, don't worry, I'm measured."

In addition to Song Chen and Old Man Song, the county magistrate also sent an official to go in with them. Song He originally wanted to go in, but was blocked outside.

The room was dark and depressing, because there was no ventilation, and the smell of medicine mixed with other smells was very unpleasant.

Mrs. Song Zhou was lying on the bed. She had lost a lot of weight. Her face was pale and gray, her eyes were unable to open, and she moaned from time to time.

Just by looking at her face, Song Chen sensed something was wrong.

She calmly stepped forward to take Song Zhou's pulse. Her pulse was chaotic, as if all the breath in her body was flowing randomly, and then arched in one direction.

There is indeed something wrong with Song Zhou's disease.

No, it should be said that Song Zhou was not sick, but poisoned!

"What kind of medicine did she take before this?" Song Chen asked Old Man Song calmly, as if the resentment between the two was no longer there.

She is a person with a clear sense of grudges and grudges, and now she is working as a doctor treating people.

Old Man Song looked a little evasive, "It's just some medicine to keep out the wind and cold. After taking it for a while, it doesn't work. I'm going to change her to other medicine today."

Song Chen lowered his eyelids and sneered in his heart.

There was still such a strong smell of medicine in the room. It was obvious that the medicine had just been cooked not long ago. The area under Song Zhou's neck was still wet. It was simply the traces left after taking the medicine.

However, when Old Man Song said this, Song Chen did not ask any more questions, but nodded and prepared to go out, "Brother, officer, I'm fine and can go out."

The official couldn't stand the smell in the room for a long time. When Song Chen said this, he was the first to go out.

Old man Song followed behind the two of them, his eyes seemed to be quenched with poison.

After walking out of the house, the official took a few deep breaths of fresh air, almost suffocating him to death.

Song Chen walked up to the county magistrate with a calm expression, "Sir, the person in the house is either sick or poisoned."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.

Old Man Song also walked up to the county magistrate, "Please make a decision for my old lady. She has been poisoned for so long. I also said that she is usually in good health, but she suddenly collapsed."

Song Chen raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, but he didn't even quibble.

But who do you want to pour this dirty water on?

The county magistrate's expression became even more solemn. It was just a dispute at first, but now it involves people's lives. If he doesn't handle it well when he comes in person, his reputation as the county magistrate will be ruined.

"What kind of poison could you possibly diagnose in the people in the house?"

"The common people are incompetent." Song Chen shook his head.

Even if she knew what kind of poison Song Zhou's family was poisoned, she wouldn't say a word more. She just wanted to put the matter out in the open and leave the rest to the county magistrate.

Hearing Song Chen say that he didn't know what kind of poison he was poisoned, Old Man Song breathed a sigh of relief, he still had a chance.

The county magistrate had no choice but to send someone to invite the government clerk and a doctor with superb medical skills to come over.

(Not only will the autopsy be performed, but injuries will also be examined.)
It took a lot of time to go back and forth, Song Chen was a little depressed, the whole day would be wasted here.

Fortunately, the official envoy to Shiping Village had already brought Li Zheng from Shiping Village.

Because of what Song Chen said before, the official was not polite to Li Zheng of Shiping Village at all, and brought him over on horseback. The bumpy ride made him almost vomited several times.

But he didn't dare to vomit.

As soon as they arrived outside Old Man Song's house, the official pulled him off the horse. Zheng Zheng in Shiping Village collapsed on the ground as soon as his legs gave out, his face turned pale and he couldn't recover for a long time.

In the crowd, Widow Zhou's expression became nervous when she saw that He Si was really being brought over, and she held the hem of her clothes tightly with both hands.

Song Chen knew that Widow Zhou was there, so he suddenly turned his head and gave her a cold look.

Widow Zhou was so frightened that she turned around and ran away.

Song Chen's behavior clearly meant he knew something.

Widow Zhou ran home and rummaged through the boxes, put all the valuable things in the house into the bags and took them away.

The old woman who was paralyzed on the bed in the room just looked at her and shed tears silently.

She knew that this daughter-in-law was restless, not at home all day long, and often hanging out at night, but she didn't say anything because she really had no choice and she had only her to rely on.

When she is in a good mood, she will cook something delicious for herself, and when she is dirty, she will change her clothes.

Even when she was in a bad mood, she would not let her go hungry, so no matter what she did, she never said a word.

But now, she has packed her baggage, fearing that if she leaves, she will never come back again.Widow Zhou put away her things and passed in front of the old woman. She paused and said, "Don't blame me. If you want to blame, blame Song Chen. She caught me. If I don't leave, I will die. I'm still young and don't want to die."

After she finished speaking, she left without looking back.

Over at Old Man Song's house, He Si finally struggled up and knelt in front of the county magistrate.

"Sir, I have seen you."

Suddenly being fished out, He Si had no idea what crime he had committed.

The county magistrate glanced at him coldly, "I heard that you repriced the land in Shiping Village?"

The calm voice made He Si's scalp numb. Only then did he see the people around him clearly. The old man of the Song family and Song Dashan were both here.

He suddenly understood that what the county magistrate was talking about was that the Song family wanted to buy the barren hills in their village.

"Sir, I was wrong. I was blinded by lard for a while and was dazzled by money. Please spare my life. I will never dare to do it again."

"Hmph! I don't dare to do it anymore. This county thinks you are very brave. You want others to pay 1000 taels for a price that is less than 5000 taels. You are really too courageous. When I accused you of being Li Zheng of Shiping Village, you still This county is really blind. The people of Shiping Village must have been squeezed by you in recent years. From today on, you should not go back to Shiping Village and ask someone else to do it."

This is no longer just a matter of money.

No county magistrate dared to be so blatant, but a little Li Zheng below was so bold and overstepped him, so that's okay!

"Sir, forgive me!"

When He Siyi heard these words, he immediately shouted to heaven and earth.

Even if Li Zheng doesn't do it, Shiping Village won't let him go back. Then where will he go to make a living in the future? Everything for him is in Shiping Village.

The county magistrate didn't even look at him, "Throw him into jail and lock him up for a few days."

He Si was like a puddle of mud, letting the officials tie him up.

The county magistrate quickly announced in public that the mountain Song Chen wanted to buy in Shiping Village would be sold to Song Chen at the market price of three taels of silver per acre. More than half of it would be handed over to the Yamen, and he promised Shi that the rest of the money would be given to Song Chen. Every household in Ping Village can get a share of the money.

He is equivalent to using the part of himself that he could have gained to become famous.

Naturally, Song Chen had no objection. Three taels of silver per acre, that is, 700 taels of silver.

But rights once again made her think.

At this time, Song Dashan and the others seemed to slowly understand why Song Chen wanted Wang Shengwei to take the imperial examination.

Shan's matter was settled in this way, but Old Man Song was not implicated by Li Zheng of Shiping Village. After all, he was just spreading the word and wanted to cheat Song Chen.

But Song Chen naturally would not let him go so easily.

Immediately, he told the county magistrate that he wanted Old Man Song to transfer all the land under his name to his own name and treat it as compensation. Naturally, the county magistrate had no objection at all.

He was mainly here to deal with this matter today. Although it was nothing more than a trivial matter, after all, people from Beijing had asked about it, so he didn't dare to be careless.

Old Man Song had no choice in this matter.

Eleven acres of high-quality land only cost 50 taels. No matter how Song Chen thought about it, he made a profit.

Looking at the document written by the county magistrate on the spot, Song Dashan's eyes turned red unconsciously.

He had served so many of these lands, but he never expected that one day they would actually come into his hands.

"This county has been out for a day today. There are still many things waiting for the county to deal with. Liu Qiang, I will leave this to you. The doctor and the doctor are here. We must find out the cause of the poisoning and find out the person who poisoned it."

All the matters that need to be dealt with have been dealt with, and the county magistrate does not want to wait here any longer.

Song Chen and others took him to the entrance of the village. The county magistrate stepped forward and said a few words to Song Chen. When no one was paying attention, Song Chen stuffed a banknote into the county magistrate's hand.

This was the banknote that shopkeeper Cui had given her before but could not be converted into cash. The county magistrate helped her settle the mountain matter, so she couldn't be too ignorant.

The county magistrate held the banknote in his hand, not showing it on his face, but he was already smiling in his heart.

It was a well-earned trip, and he gained both fame and fortune.

The banknote in my hand should be at least 50 taels.

The people in Beiguan Village thought that the matter had calmed down, but they never expected that the subsequent development would be even more exciting.

After Wu Zuo and the doctor came, they determined that Song Zhou became like this after eating bitter almonds. This makes people speculate. Anyone who is not stupid knows that bitter almonds are poisonous. Who would eat those if they were awake? !
That night, Song Qingyun suddenly came back again without knowing why.

When I came back, I was disheveled and smelled of powder.

Old Man Song was a man who knew what was going on at a glance. He stared at him with a pair of eyes, "Old Liu, you, what are you doing!"

Song Qingyun raised his eyes and looked at Old Man Song, and smiled disdainfully, "Can't you see? Of course he is having fun."

Old Man Song looked stern, something was wrong with Lao Liu at this moment.

But then he saw Song Qingyun casually gathering up his long robe, "Dad, have you sold the land? I'm waiting to use the money. The 50 taels before were not enough for a few flowers. I don't have any at hand." How much is left?"
