Chapter 289: Ancient Imperial Examination 56



Chu Qi straightened her clothes that were messed up by Li Xue and strode to the front hall.

·

After interrogating according to the procedure, Chu Qi learned the reasons and consequences of Chen Wan coming to beat the drum to appeal for justice.

It turns out that Chen Wan is a local. She got married ten years ago and gave birth to a daughter who is now nine years old.

Her daughter disappeared three months ago, and Chen Wan found her daughter's body dumped in the wild by Liu Neng's servants two months ago.

After discovering her daughter's body, she and former county magistrate Zhang Sheng sued Liu Neng's family for their crimes.

Although the evidence was conclusive, Liu Neng and his family escaped sanctions because Liu Neng had bribed Zhang Sheng.

This time, when Chen Wan heard that a new county magistrate had taken office, she wanted to give it a try and file a new lawsuit.

After hearing the whole story, Chu Qi felt a little embarrassed because it had been two months since the case happened.

I'm afraid the necessary evidence has already been destroyed.

It's not that she can't reopen the case, but she's afraid it will be useless.

After much thought, Chu Qi simply went to the body of Chen Wan's daughter in private to perform a ritual. After extracting her memories, she found that the girl had suffered inhuman torture from Liu Neng.

The heinous behavior made Chen Wan cry bitterly again, and finally she fainted in front of her daughter's grave.

Chu Qi hated the evil people who attacked children the most in his life, so he simply summoned back the ghost of Chen Wan's daughter and let her take revenge herself.

The handling of this matter was entirely private.

On the surface, Chu Qi gave up the retrial of the case, and Chen Wan was also beaten with ten boards according to the law.

In secret, someone secretly made the victim take revenge on his own.

After this incident, Chen Wan enshrined a longevity tablet for Chu Qi at home and burned incense to worship it every day.

Leaving this topic aside, Chu Qi's rectification of Pingyao County began in the second month after taking office.

The government took the lead in growing herbs and selling them to the government. This was the first time the emperor had seen such a request.

This request was made by Ye Qingyun, who had given up a promising future. The emperor thought about it and agreed.

The government also needs channels to purchase herbs, and usually they connect with private vendors. It doesn't matter where they buy from, so it doesn't matter if they have one more channel in Pingyao County.

·

On this day, the people of Pingyao County suddenly discovered that the bulletin board, which had not been updated for a long time, had some new content!

The county magistrate personally sat in front of the bulletin board and explained the contents to everyone.

Three days later, Pingyao County began to vigorously promote the cultivation of medicinal herbs. There was an urgent need for manpower, and every household had a quota to work in growing medicinal herbs.

Lunch is provided for those who come, and the wage is ten cents a day.

Time is limited. After the planting is completed, the number of workers recruited will be greatly reduced, leaving only those with good performance to continue to manage the medicinal fields.

Ten cents a day and a free meal every day, this great thing instantly attracted the attention of the people of Pingyao County, and everyone rolled up their sleeves and started to work.

This is just the beginning of Chu Qi's experiment. After selling the first pot of gold, he will promote this project to all towns and villages under the governance of Pingyao County.

The medicine field project was promoted in full swing. One year later, the herbs were successfully sold to the government and made a lot of money.

Chu Qi used the money to repair the roads in Pingyao County.

This year, Chu Qi used the medical skills he had learned to cure his biological father Ye Ping, and also cured his grandfather's leg. Although he still couldn't walk, at least he didn't feel pain on rainy days.

The 671st year of the Qian Dynasty.

In early winter, snowflakes flutter down to the ground, covering the ground with a layer of white gauze.

Ye family.

Today, the county magistrate's mansion has been almost completely renovated by Chu Qi. The dilapidated gate and threshold have been replaced with new ones, and the height of the wall has been increased a lot.

Zhuang Qiuling's belly grew bigger again. Counting the days, she had not been pregnant for six years since she gave birth to her first daughter. She was now twenty-one years old.

Ye Youze is thirty-one this year.

Because of the sale of medicinal herbs this year, Chu Qi not only used the money to repair the streets, but also distributed New Year's red envelopes to the workers. Although it was not much, it was enough for them to buy some good food during the New Year.

This move earned her a lot of good reputation.

only......

Her achievements have not helped Pingyao County much so far. In winter, there are still people who go hungry and freeze to death on the streets.

Chu Qi began planning to expand the scope of herb cultivation to all towns under the jurisdiction of Pingyao County next year.

In his third year in office, Chu Qi expanded the herb planting program to the entire township.

The following year, when the Qian Dynasty was harassed by neighboring countries, all the medicinal herbs of the people in Pingyao County were sold out, and many people lived a better life because of this.

But selling medicinal herbs is not always so popular every year, so Chu Qi came up with a new idea to make money, which is to sell food ingredients.

This idea has yet to be implemented.

Li Xue has not been pregnant for many years, and Ye Zhangshi is becoming anxious both openly and secretly.

She is already quite old this year. She had been displaced in her early years and her body had suffered irreversible damage. Although she had taken good care of herself in recent years, she could not resist the aging brought by age.

The eldest grandson Ye Youze is already pregnant with his second child, but Chu Qi and Li Xue haven’t even seen the shadow of their first child.

Ye Zhangshi did not tell Li Xue directly. After dinner, Ye Zhangshi pulled Chu Qi aside and

"My dear grandson, do you have any thoughts about taking a concubine? Xiaoxue hasn't gotten pregnant in a few years, and you're not young anymore. Men your age would have children who are already in school."

In the distance, Li Xue heard everything Ye Zhang said.

She became sad and sat on the stool unhappily.

She was thinking angrily in her heart that if the master really wanted to take a concubine, she would suck the master dry!

Unexpectedly, Chu Qi said seriously:

"Grandma, I've checked my own pulse. It says that I can't have a child. It has nothing to do with Xiaoxue. Even if I find someone else, I won't be able to have a child."

Ye Zhang was shocked when she heard this, and kept muttering to herself what to do now.

Chu Qi didn't care much and said:

"Our Ye family already has descendants, my eldest brother. Even if I don't have any, what's the problem?"

After all, Ye Zhang was a traditional woman of the Gan Dynasty. She believed that if a man had no offspring, it meant that he would have no descendants to support him. Without descendants to support him, he would suffer after death.

She sighed, but understood that Chu Qi was a highly skilled doctor and what he said must be right. She had no choice but to forget the matter and never mention the matter of taking a concubine for Chu Qi again.

At night, after Chu Qi washed up and entered the room, she was entangled by a fox.

Li Xue wore a cool undergarment and pressed herself on Chu Qi.

"Husband, can we have a child? I heard everything you said to grandma."

She felt a little aggrieved, and pouted her red lips as she moved closer to the young man's chest.

There is a trace when printing one.

Seeing Li Xue's innocent and angry look, Chu Qi chuckled and took the initiative to kiss her lips for a long kiss.

After the kiss, Chu Qi whispered:

"You forgot, you are a fox and I am a human. How can a fox and a human give birth to a child?"

After all, there is reproductive isolation between different species.
