The Pastoral Medicinal Fragrance of the Imperial Concubine

Chapter 400 Depression (2)
Wan Qi snorted coldly, "Father was murdered by a traitor, the enemy is naturally jealous when he sees him, what's a slap?"

Zhou Heng immediately explained again: "If everyone is watching, if it's unfair..."

"What's fair, the miscellaneous family wants you to close the case years ago, can you agree?" Wan Qi said impatiently.

Zhou Heng hurriedly leaned over to salute, "Eunuch Wan, you are embarrassing to step down. Now that Xia Liming's death is unknown, how do you close the case? This..."

Wan Qi stood up abruptly, stared at Zhou Heng coldly and said, "You mean to stop doing it?"

Zhou Heng hurriedly said: "Eunuch Wan, it's not that you will not do it because you are an official. There is really no way to do it. Now that the year is over, this... Eunuch Wan, I promise you that I will find out the cause of Xia Liming's death and return him." How about a fair one?"

Wan Qi heard Zhou Heng's repeated words of justice, and couldn't help but whispered: "Fairness, this seat is justice, if you can't even be a seventh-rank county magistrate, then go home and farm!"

Wan Qi got up, coldly waved his sleeves and left.

Zhou Heng was startled, and wanted to go forward to say something, but Wan Qi had already left.

"Master..." The master stepped forward worriedly, "Eunuch Wan is narrow-minded and likes to hold grudges the most. Since the old man said this, then master..."

Zhou Heng's face was full of worry.

He was only 25 years old when he won a fellow Jinshi, and finally chose a seventh-rank county magistrate, and because he has nothing to do with the court, he has not been promoted for seven years, and he has come to this remote city from the prosperous attached city. If he takes the opportunity to make friends with Wan Qi, his future will be much smoother. If Wan Qi is offended, then the 20 years of hard study will be wasted!
"Master, although Miss Leng cured the old lady's illness, compared to the future of the master..." The master still wanted to persuade Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng said in a deep voice: "Master, tell me, why did we study so hard for so many years?"

That master is also a Juren, he has followed Zhou Heng all the way up to now, he is still a seventh-rank county magistrate for so many years, and he is often depressed, but he is just, just like Zhou Heng, he has never judged a case in vain, and he can be regarded as open and aboveboard .

The master was silent for a while, and then said: "We study to serve the country! But if the master is not an official, how can we serve the country?"

Zhou Heng said in a deep voice: "Being an official doesn't make decisions for the people, it's better to go home and sell sweet potatoes, Ziqing, you have changed!"

The master was silent for a while.

Zhou Heng sighed faintly.

After Hao came out of the yamen, she didn't go home, but found an inn in Licheng to stay.

Mrs. Hao happened to live in the inn owned by Shopkeeper Zhu. Shopkeeper Zhu heard that Mrs. Hao was Leng Ping’s mother-in-law and the mother of Hao Chenyi, the current champion of the new discipline. nice room.

Hao Shi was worried about Leng Ping at the moment and didn't want to talk, but she still said: "How can this be done, you won't get paid for nothing..."

Shopkeeper Zhu hurriedly said: "How can it be useless? I had an incident in the inn before, and Ms. Leng also contributed. Besides, Ms. Leng's free clinic is a righteous one. How many people have been helped? Now that Ms. Leng is in such a catastrophe, we can't help much. , that is to say, it’s easy to do, the old lady should not refuse!"

Hao Shi was not in the mood to socialize at the moment, so he nodded to express his gratitude.

Shopkeeper Zhu knew that Hao Shi was not feeling well, so he didn't bother him any more, and said goodbye, "I'll let Xiao Er bring you some water, and you can take a good rest, old lady, don't worry, good people are rewarded with good things, Miss Leng is Good man, God will not treat her like this!"

With tears in her eyes, Hao Shi nodded, choked up and said, "Thank you, shopkeeper!"

Shopkeeper Zhu waved his hand, took his leave and closed the door.

Liu Yingfeng helped Hao shi to sit down.

Hao Shi sat down and calmed down, the corners of her lips were murmured, not knowing what to say or what to do to help Leng Ping.

"Master Liu, please help me write a letter to my son Hao Ren. Ping'er has something to do. As a husband, he should try to help!" Hao finally said.

Liu Yingfeng immediately said: "Hao Ren is only working in the Imperial Academy now, so he is not considered to be an official. In terms of contacts, he is not as good as me. Besides, it is already the end of the year, and the carriages and ships have stopped. It will take at least half a month to go to Tiancheng. thirsty!"

When Hao Shi heard about it, she felt even more uncomfortable, and said in a low voice, "Then I have to tell Ren'er that they are husband and wife, and Ping'er can't bear all these alone!"

Seeing Hao's insistence, Liu Yingfeng said, "Okay, I will write a letter to explain the situation here, and send someone to Heavenly City!"

Only then did Hao feel relieved, and nodded gratefully, "Dr. Liu is so kind, the little lady is so polite!"

As Hao Shi said, she was about to stand up and salute Liu Yingfeng.

Liu Yingfeng hurriedly stopped her, "Madam, I have been friends with Leng Ping for many years, I can't just sit idly by when she has something to do, so don't talk about it if you are polite!"

Hao Shi nodded quickly.

After putting Hao Shi down, Liu Yingfeng returned to her room. At this moment, Mu Wen, Mu Wu, and his bodyguards were already waiting.

"Young master!" Seeing Liu Yingfeng coming in, the three hurriedly saluted Liu Yingfeng.

"My lord, how is the old lady?" Mu Wen hurriedly asked.

Liu Yingfeng said in a low voice: "Fortunately, the most important thing right now is to find a way to get your miss out!"

Mu Wen quickly nodded and asked, "Your Master, do you have a good idea?"

Liu Yingfeng's close guard said in a low voice: "A Xia family is not enough, but this time with Eunuch Wan here, it is really tricky. Now Eunuch Chen who is beside the emperor is Wan Qi's adoptive son, even though Wan Qi has retired , but still controls the power of the eunuch, and should not be underestimated, then Zhou Heng may judge this case in vain!"

When Mu Wen heard this, his expression darkened.

He worked as the chief housekeeper in the Tiancheng High Official's House, and he had heard of this Eunuch Wan to some extent.

This Eunuch Wan was the general's servant in the previous imperial palace, and he was once in charge of the Supervisor of Rituals.

The prime minister's eunuch, who is in charge of ceremonies, has the right to help the emperor approve awards.

The approval of the red is the memorial signed by the emperor's cabinet, which is called "the approval of the red".

Redemption is the last step in the implementation of various government orders.

Sometimes there are too many memorials, and the emperor can't handle all the awards.Some minor ones were written by the eunuch, the supervisor of ceremonies.

Wan Qi was the eunuch who wrote the book at that time. In the era of the first emperor, it can be said that the power was in the hands of the government and the public. However, the current emperor's ability to ascend to the throne of God may also have something to do with Wan Qi.

It's just that after the emperor ascended the throne, Wan Qi had to retire and return to his hometown in his prime. However, three years ago, after his most proud adopted son, Chen Xiang, became the eunuch of the eunuch, Wan Qi had another recovery momentum.
