Chapter 151 The So-called Gentleman Model



"Da Lang, your uncle is an honest man, and he will take what you say seriously." Su Dahai clasped his hands together, not knowing where to put them, and his mouth opened wide, almost reaching his ears.

Being the biggest constable in the Great Zhou Dynasty, being the constable in Jingzhao Prefecture, being the constable in Dali Temple, just thinking about it makes me feel wonderful.

"Can this really work?" He couldn't help but ask.

"Of course." Song Chi said, "As long as your nephew becomes a high-ranking official, this is not impossible."

"Okay, Dalang, you will definitely become a high-ranking official."

These words diluted the sadness of parting. Song Chi was not just talking, it might come true in the future.

That night they went back to his uncle's house to celebrate. Song Chi cooked a simple hot pot himself, which everyone enjoyed with relish.

In addition to Luo Yurou, there is also Su Mingyue. It is worth mentioning that she has been adopted by her aunt, who is close to her aunt. This is because she has the idea that the one who is close to the water will get the moon first. There is also Luo Yurou's bodyguard, Miss Xiaoqing.

It was she who killed Zhang Wu that night.

"This hot pot is really... so delicious." Luo Yurou sucked her lips, and her pink tongue stuck out from time to time.

"I know a lot more, this is just a drizzle."

Song Chi said: "As long as you are by my side, there will be surprises every day."

He could see that Miss Luo was usually too strictly controlled by her father. She was like a canary in a cage. She was curious about everything and interested in all new things, just like she liked to eat.

She was tired of the "delicacies" she ate at the Duke of Anguo's Mansion and wanted to eat something different.

To put it bluntly, I've eaten too much fine grains and want to eat some coarse grains.

The sense of freshness she wanted was exactly what Song Chi could satisfy. As a time traveler, his thoughts and speech were different from those of people of this era.

For example, Song Chi would ask Luo Yurou why there are day and night, how rain is formed, why people live on the earth instead of in the sky, and so on. These questions would make Luo Yurou think for a long time, and of course she could not think of the answers.

When Song Chi explained it to her, she suddenly understood.

That's why she always follows Song Chi, and Song Chi also hopes that she will follow him.

Xiaoqing, who was picking up a piece of meat, frowned slightly. She could hear that Song Chi was deliberately "tempting" her, but since the young lady didn't say anything, she naturally wouldn't say anything either. It could be seen that the young lady was really happy.

She would pretend to be happy in front of the Duke, but that was fake. Now it is real.

Everyone enjoyed the meal and no one mentioned that Song Chi was leaving, but everyone knew that this might be their last meal.

The next day, Song Chi went to the county government office.

"Congratulations, Master, for winning the case."

"Congratulations, congratulations."

"Master, you won the first place in the provincial examination. You are not aiming for the top three prizes, are you? Even if it is a small top three prize, it is still a top three prize."

On the way from the county government office to the classroom, everyone I met congratulated me.

Song Chi is the de facto second master in the county government.

Since the Yongsheng Gang was defeated, County Magistrate Dong Weimin has also changed. He respects the county magistrate in everything and is not as hostile to Song Chi as before.

This further solidified his position.

Song Chi looked around the county government office and knew that he would be leaving soon. The army may change but the camp remains the same. What was a small legal advisor like him? This was just a starting point after all.

When he reached the door of the classroom, he picked up his hand and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Pushing the door open, County Magistrate Feng was sitting behind a desk, bent over documents. His desk was meticulously arranged, with the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone fixed in place, and it had not changed since Song Chi first saw it.

"Congratulations on winning the first place in the prefectural case. You are now a Tongsheng."

Feng Yuan stood up and took out his collection of tea from the cabinet behind the desk.

"No need, sir."

Song Chi was a little panicked. Every time he drank Lord Feng's tea, it was a test for his bladder.

This was a gift from Feng Yuan's second assistant Lu Taiyuan. It was extremely precious. Feng Yuan himself was reluctant to drink it but he gave it to him many times. He would brew it many times until it became tasteless, and Feng Yuan would stare at Song Chi every time.

This made Song Chi feel guilty. If he didn't drink it, he would feel sorry for Feng Yuan.

The result is that my bladder explodes every time I drink.

He was really scared.

But while he was talking, Feng Yuan had already made him a cup, but this time he also made himself a cup.

Sniffing the tea, Feng Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, "This is my first time drinking it."

He took another sip, which was a little hot, just to moisten his lips, and looked intoxicated.

Is Song Chi Wu Yu really that fragrant? He has already drunk it a few times, and it feels just so-so. Maybe it's because the teacher gave it to him.

"Han Yuanzheng has left Ning'an for Jiangzhou City. He's going there to avoid disaster. It's time for you to leave too." Feng Yuan sat up straight and said seriously, "The real struggle is about to begin. Even the Han family is prepared for the worst."

Song Chi's face was calm. "Han Yuan took my words to heart. He was worried that the Han family would be treated as a scapegoat."

"The Prime Minister will definitely be able to do something like this."

Feng Yuan sighed deeply, "If I hadn't experienced it myself, I wouldn't have believed that the Prime Minister was such a person."

Based on the evidence they have found so far, most of the wealth accumulated by the Han family in Ji County over the years was obtained by the Prime Minister. In other words, the Han family is the Prime Minister's "black glove".

This can also explain why Han Yu suddenly resigned and returned home, and then his second brother Han Qingshan became the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. Now it seems that there is a lot of inside story, or even a shady deal.

Han Yu's purpose in Ji County was to make money.

Led by the Han family and assisted by local officials, they formed an impenetrable network for making money.

During this period, they seized power by trickery and used all kinds of despicable means to annex fertile farmland, control the salt industry... and even embezzled land taxes and agricultural taxes to amass huge wealth.

And most of these riches belong to the Prime Minister.

The Prime Minister, who is known as a model gentleman and more like a pure official than the Qingliu, is such a person.

If this were to be made known, the entire Great Zhou would be shocked.

"It's nothing surprising. All hypocrites are like this." Song Chi had no expression on his face. He knew best what kind of person Song Shiwen was.

"We already have a lot of evidence, and I'll have it sorted out in the next two days. This evidence was obtained by you, but you must leave before the incident completely breaks out. I will do my best to clear you completely, even though it's difficult."

"Let it be as it is."

Song Chi looked calm, he knew Feng Yuan was protecting him. These pieces of evidence were too important, if they were exposed many people would lose their positions and their heads. As the person who found out these things, one could imagine how much hatred he would face.

But now that things have come to this, it is difficult to get rid of it completely.

"Master, please be careful when teleporting. The outside is now blocked, and it is extremely difficult to send it out safely."

"Don't worry about that." Feng Yuan said, "I will naturally find a way to send her safely to the capital, to the teacher..."
