Chapter 27 Wei Yuming

In the backyard of an inconspicuous tavern in the county town, Shen Zhuoyun and the county prime minister Wei Yuming sat opposite each other.

"Brother Wei, I want to get rid of Meng Guangtian and need your help." Shen Zhuoyun said bluntly.

Wei Yuming raised his eyebrows: "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

After hearing his straightforward answer, Shen Zhuoyun kindly told Wei Yuming about Magistrate Meng's private gold mine.

"What? Such a thing could happen?" Wei Yuming stood up in shock, walked back and forth in the room a few times, and said: "He can just die if he wants to, but don't drag me into being buried with him. "

Shen Zhuoyun elegantly picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "Don't walk around and dazzle me."

Wei Yuming sat down and drank all the tea in the cup: "I think Wei Yuming studied hard for more than ten years in the cold window. Once I got the honors, I just wanted to serve the court. Who knew that I offended a villain and was sent to Lingnan to be the county magistrate? This It’s not enough, it’s even followed by such a bad thing. It’s an ambition but it can’t be realized. Alas!”

Wei Yuming met Shen Zhuoyun when he was studying abroad. He was from Zhongzhou, his family had a small income, and he was a second-class Jinshi in the eighth year of Jingwen.

It is not uncommon for someone to be named on the gold medal list and catch their son-in-law under the list, and it is often talked about.

Wei Yuming had a handsome appearance and a graceful demeanor. The daughter of a high-ranking official in the capital took a fancy to him and wanted to marry him, but he refused.

He is already married in his hometown, and her wife is his childhood sweetheart and his cousin. His eldest son is already two years old, so how could he agree? The noble girl asked Wei Yuming to divorce his wife and marry her, but he refused. Later, she said that she would become his equal wife, but he still refused, and what happened next. He was a second-class Jinshi and served as county magistrate in a small county in Lingnan, where he served for twelve years.

Shen Zhuoyun also knew about his past and comforted him: "Don't be discouraged. The emperor is a wise king. As long as you do well, you will eventually turn around."

"I just know that the emperor is a wise king, which is why he has lasted so long, otherwise he would have gone home and farmed long ago."

"You see, the opportunity has come now. The magistrate of Wucheng is the second son of An Guogong. He is not afraid of any power. As long as you pull down Magistrate Meng, you should be able to rise up."

"Well, let's discuss what to do next."

Shen Jia was dressed in men's clothing and was going to wait on the official road.

"Hey, when did I get a brother? Brother, where did you hide my sister?" Shen An walked around Shen Jia and said in a strange tone.

Shen Yun also held his head high, his expression was serious, and he said in a milky voice: "Sister looks like a big brother, it doesn't look good, but she still looks good in women's clothes."

Shen Jia picked up Shen Yun and said, "Little brat, what do you know? This is called neutral beauty, it's handsome."

Shen Yun twisted his body into a twist, struggled to get down, and shouted: "Sister, men and women do not kiss each other, you can't hug me."

Shen An pulled Shen Jia's clothes: "Sister, let him down. If he doesn't hug you, I will hug you."

Hearing this, Shen Yun stopped twisting and held Shen Jia's neck with both hands, looking at Shen An provocatively.

Shen Jia was secretly amused. Competition for favors has indeed existed since ancient times.

Shen Jia held Shen Yun in her left hand, and picked up Shen An in her right hand. She kissed them both on the cheeks and said, "Be good, they are both my sister's precious brothers."

Shen Yun and Shen An's faces turned red at the same time, a little shy and a little happy. They looked at Shen Hao proudly at the same time, the meaning in their eyes was unclear: "Sister hugged me and kissed me, but you didn't."

An angry Shen Hao raised his fist and said silently: "Childish, when you grow up, you don't want anyone to hug you."

Shen Yun and Shen An both rolled their eyes, and imitated Shen Hao and said silently: "Huh! If you can't eat the grapes, you will say the grapes are sour."

Seeing this scene, Mrs. Gu shook her head and laughed.

Shen Jia first went to find the little beggar Liu Erhu near the county government office to inquire about the situation. Liu Erhu is the beggar who followed Li Hu and the others last time.

Shen Jia looked at Liu Erhu carefully. He was about eleven or twelve years old. He was tall and thin, wearing patched clothes. He had regular features, sallow skin, and a pair of dark eyes that were moving around. He looked like a smart man at first glance. host.

Liu Erhu cupped his fists and saluted: "Miss."

Shen Jia waved his hand: "Call me girl next time."

"Okay." Liu Erhu answered fluently.

Shen Jia asked a lot of questions and found that he could answer them all, so he started to recruit.

"Do you want to hang out with me? I can help you live a good life. Eat well, sleep well, wear warm clothes, and marry you a beautiful girl as your wife in the future." Shen Jia is like a wolf grandma who deceives the child. The white rabbit induced Liu Erhu.

"I won't sell myself." Liu Erhu blurted out.

Selling oneself is slavery. He promised his parents to take good care of his younger brothers and sisters. He could not let them become slaves that others could kill at any time.

Shen Jia smiled slowly and said: "You don't need to sell yourself, but you can't betray me. The consequence of betraying me is that I will chase you thousands of miles away. Think about it, and then find a way to tell me when you think about it clearly."

After Shen Jia finished speaking, Shi Shiran left.

She believed he would agree.

An eleven or twelve-year-old boy and his two younger brothers and sisters lived a very difficult life. If Shen Zhuoyun hadn't often given them food and clothing, they would have starved to death long ago with the little they could get from begging.

In fact, Shen Zhuoyun also asked him a few days ago. Shen Zhuoyun meant that they should sign a twenty-year contract. After twenty years, they would be free. Shen Zhuoyun was a native of the ancients. He was taught since he was a child that only when the contract is in hand is he guaranteed. Will not be betrayed easily.

Shen Jia didn't think it mattered. In her previous life, she was betrayed once by someone in ANBU. She personally recruited that person. He was excellent in all aspects. After ten years in ANBU, he completed every mission with excellence.

She originally planned to propose to the superiors to give him a promotion, but who knew that his woman was caught and blackmailed him into betraying her, causing her to be besieged by several criminal gangs. It took her a narrow escape to eliminate those gangs, and she was also shot by a bullet. The bullet hit his liver, which was not very healthy. The superiors became furious and ordered the man to be shot immediately.

In fact, if that man told her the actual situation, he might not be able to save his woman, but he chose to betray her. Shen Jia really didn't understand.

Therefore, for Shen Jia, there is zero tolerance for betrayal, otherwise, he will be hunted for thousands of miles and will not stop.

Shen Jia learned from Liu Erhu that no one from the county government had left, so he searched for a place where he could hide, and finally found a longan tree five miles away. Shen Jia lightly jumped onto the longan tree with her toes, resting her head on her hands. He crossed his legs, held a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth, and stared at the official road ahead.

In ancient times, the official roads were not big, and only two carriages could walk side by side. There was not even a human figure on the road, only the cicadas on the trees kept calling.

Just when Shen Jia was almost drowsy from waiting.

"Da da da"

Five fast horses ran towards Wucheng. The most conspicuous among them was a young man in the middle who was about thirteen or fourteen years old. He was wearing white armor and auspicious cloud boots. He had exquisite facial features and picturesque eyebrows, especially Those dark and deep obsidian eyes are particularly beautiful.
