In the past few days, the biggest topic in the capital is the new affairs of the Jia's family.

From the princes and nobles to the peddlers and pawns, everyone has to say a few words.

Just when Zhou Mingshan was pondering the root of this matter, people from Jiafu came to the door.

"Yang Zhi, what are you doing?"

Without waiting for someone to salute, Zhou Mingshan asked in surprise.

Maybe it's because the masters of Jiafu are deeply troubled by rumors these days, and Yang Zhi is not as bright and bright as before, but a little haggard.

She stepped forward and blessed her body, and said softly, "The maid was ordered to reply to the fourth girl......

As she spoke, she glanced up at Zhou Mingshan, and continued, "The girl said that it was really a mistake, and she didn't know it in advance......"

The voice is hoarse, the tone is difficult, and it is very rare.

Zhou Mingshan instinctively had a "groan" in her heart.

After listening to Yang Zhi's words, she was completely stunned!

The eldest cousin was selected as a river worker alternate, and he was appointed within a time limit, and there must be no mistakes.

If someone had told her about this in her previous life, she would definitely not know anything.

But in this life, she came for recreation, and secondly, she really wanted to know more things, not to be the frog at the bottom of the well, so she read a few books and books, and she also knew a little about the official positions and functions of this dynasty.

It is said that it is difficult for a magistrate to do it, but this river worker is a well-known place for falsely reporting the work section, misappropriating money and grain, running around every time, eating, drinking and disturbing the place, which is especially difficult to do than the magistrate.

The eldest cousin is even new to officialdom, and he has no experience in river governance, how could he send him such a position?

According to the temperament of the eldest aunt, I am afraid that she will come to the door again to make trouble.

Could this be what Jia Xinyi said about a slightly inferior messenger?

"Please forgive me, the fourth girl, there have been a lot of things in the house recently, and the girl has really done her best......"

Yang Zhi's words came from his ears again, but Zhou Mingshan couldn't take care of it anymore.

All she thinks about now is how to explain to her aunt and eldest cousin, and she doesn't even know when Yang Zhi will leave.

A few girls saw that she was sad and wanted to comfort her, but they didn't know much about these things and didn't know how to speak.

Factor Xin was sent back to Yuan's side by Zhou Mingshan to serve, and Zhou Mingshan temporarily handed over the consul to Dui Xiang.

Now. And they all looked at the pile of incense,

Dui Xiang is also very big, where does she know about these officialdom things.

I had to cautiously step forward and persuade, "Girl, don't worry. Maybe things aren't that bad?"

Zhou Mingshan's heart moved, too, in the past, I always heard that river work was difficult to do, but if there was nothing to do, it was just a bit more cumbersome to deal with Shangguan colleagues on weekdays. There won't be any other big problems either.

The eldest cousin can do it first, and then find an opportunity to dispatch when he is familiar with the environment.

But then a piece of news came that made her heart sink into a trough again.

The Liujia family in the East River has broken along the area!

The flood raged for several hours, destroying many fertile fields and houses, and losing thousands of people's land, houses, and even lives.

I heard that the local officials in charge of 600 li rushed to the emperor, asked for money and food to relieve the affected people, and asked the emperor to send county officials to work and send commissions.

Previously, Yang Zhi said that the eldest cousin was sent to the governor of the East River.

Now, I'm afraid my aunt will hate her to death!

As the saying goes, there is no single line of disaster. It seems that she has indeed been unlucky lately, and maybe she should go to a bodhisattva to worship.

"Hongyun, you rush to Jia's Mansion immediately, you must find Miss Jia to ask her face to face, and then hurry up and talk back!"

Red Cloud got the order and trotted away.

Zhou Mingshan sighed secretly, hoping that she could make up for it in time!

No matter what led to the current situation, Yang Zhi would definitely not say it directly, and maybe she didn't know anything about it.

She specifically pointed to Hongyun's past, hoping that Jia Xinyi could tell her the truth, lest she be bored in the dark and know nothing.

She thought for a moment. He pointed to the pile of incense again, "You go to the second gate to keep an eye on it yourself, if your uncle and wife come, don't let her alarm your mother." Anyway, you're going to have to find a way to bring it straight here!"

Dui Xiang was stunned for a moment, then nodded clearly and went out.

Zhou Mingshan held his forehead and thought about it again, feeling that there was nothing missing, and Fang Chang breathed a sigh of relief.

Hopefully Red Cloud will get the news soon, in that case. Even if her aunt comes to the door, she can have an explanation, otherwise I am afraid that there will be another lawsuit.

It's a pity that Xu is her luck has been too bad lately, and God doesn't seem to be willing to favor her.

The next morning, she had just come back from the main room and drank a cup of tea, and Gu Shi rushed over angrily.

It seems that because the matter is too urgent, the imperial court's order is also issued quickly, and the uncle and aunt have already received the news.

Zhou Mingshan sighed secretly, tried her best to pretend to be fine, and stepped forward with a smile, "Why did my aunt come over today?"

Gu Shi stared at her coldly, the chill in his eyes seemed to be able to freeze people into ice, "Hehe, if I don't come again, I'm afraid that your eldest cousin will be killed by you, and I don't know?"

"Where did my aunt's words come from?" Zhou Mingshan pretended to be very surprised, "What happened to the eldest cousin?"

"What's going on, don't you know what's going on?" Gu's eyes were still staring at her like a viper's letter.

Zhou Mingshan said with a straight face, "Uncle, what happened to the eldest cousin, how can the nephew's daughter know? The day before yesterday, my aunt came to the door and asked Mingshan to help the eldest cousin take office as soon as possible, and Mingshan has already entrusted someone to do it.

Seeing that Zhou Mingshan seemed to be really unaware, Gu's expression softened a lot, pursed his lips, and seemed to be a little reluctant to say the matter of the order.

"Ah, what's going on? eldest cousin doesn't know about river work?" Zhou Mingshan asked in surprise.

Now, she has no choice but to continue pretending, first stabilizing her eldest aunt for the time being, and then planning for the future.

After Gu Shi got the news, he felt that the sky was about to fall.

She didn't know such ignorant women, and of course she knew that river work was difficult.

Moreover, the flood season is about to begin, and there is a problem with this section of the river, which may implicate other rivers. In previous years, during rainy years, many river officials would be convicted.

Wei'er is not as good as those old officials, unfamiliar with official business, according to his temperament, if he meets an honest and honest official, it is good, if he is unlucky, it is very likely that he will be a scapegoat for others, and then the errand is still light, I am afraid that he will be unjustly imprisoned or even lose his life.

Every time she thought of this, she was so worried that she scolded the officials in the court and even the emperor Lao Tzu several times.

"Didn't you go find someone to clear it?"

As soon as she remembered the incident she had come to find Zhou Mingshan before, she regretted it to death, she knew that it would be better to wait for another two years, it would be much better than now.

"Uncle, you can't wronged me, although I have entrusted someone, I haven't received the news yet. Maybe that person didn't have time to make a move, and the emperor appointed the eldest cousin's envoy, but I can't say!"

For now, I had to push it on that person.
