Song Ergongzi didn't believe that the child in his ugly wife's womb was his own, and the ugly wife naturally felt very aggrieved, although he wanted to prove his innocence, but in this era, even if the child was born, there was no means of paternity testing, let alone that the child was still in the womb.

Speaking of this ugly lady of the official family, she is a fierce woman, and after being slandered by her husband in terms of chastity, this made her angry, and chose the most drastic means to prove her innocence, that is, to hang herself, and by the time the maids found out, the corpse had already been hard, and it was a real corpse with two lives.

When he said this, Li Zheng couldn't help but stop admiring twice, nothing more than sighing that this young lady has a strong temperament, even if she looks a little ugly, she is still a strange woman. Zhou Zhong also sighed, but what he lamented was that Daming's medical skills were too backward, and if there was a method of paternity testing, maybe such a human tragedy would not have to happen.

After a long while, Zhou Chong came to his senses from his sigh, and then asked: "Next, this ugly young lady hanged herself, her mother's family will definitely not give up, how did the Song family deal with it this time?" ”

Hearing Zhou Zhong ask about the Song family, I saw Li Zheng continue to speak with a disgusted face: "The family surnamed Song saw their daughter-in-law hang herself, and naturally they were all scared half to death, after all, if this matter was known to the in-laws, their family would not be able to eat and walk around, so at the beginning, they declared to the public that Miss Ugly was dying of illness in a hurry, and they wanted to fool this matter over, but they didn't expect that there was a maid who married and Miss Ugly grew up together since childhood, and the relationship was very deep. She didn't want her young lady to die blindly. So I sneaked back to my parents' house to report the news. Only then did Miss Ugly's father learn the cause of his daughter's death......"

The next thing was not unexpected by Zhou Chong, the official was questioned by the second son of Song after learning that his daughter was not doing well in the Song family, and even after she was pregnant, this was not only insulting his daughter, but also insulting their family style, what made him even more angry was that the Song family wanted to hide this matter, and even lied to himself that his daughter was sick and died. How can he, as a father, endure this?

It is precisely because of this that the official was angry and took the escaped maid to sue the Song family, and also used his officialdom to use his official relationship, in order to return his daughter's innocence, but soon the Song family was arrested, and then invited a very famous servant to take out the fetus in the womb of the ugly lady and carefully verify it, but the servant concluded that the child should be conceived in the newlywed days, and the Song family has nothing to say. Just dying was enough to ruin their families, not to mention that the ugly young lady's father was still moving around. vowed to let the Song family die.

The trial of the Song family soon came down, in which the second son of Song slandered his newlywed wife, resulting in his wife's two lives, and was severely sentenced to be beheaded after the autumn, the people of the Song family wanted to conceal the case afterwards because of the protection of the second son of Song, and they were all convicted, but this time there were no deaths, but they were either imprisoned or exiled, and the family property was confiscated, so it can be said that the entire Song family has disappeared.

"Wenda, as the saying goes, good is rewarded with good, and evil is rewarded with evil, the Song family is not a good person in the first place, and now that they have fallen to this point, they deserve it!" Li Zheng summed up the sentence after the most reluctance.

"I and Bang'er have forgotten the original thing, and I don't want to get along with villains like the Song family anymore, but I didn't expect them to find a dead end in the end." Zhou Zhong also sighed at this time and said, although he didn't believe in any evil and evil retribution, but it was indeed very happy that people like the Song family had fallen to such a point.

Chatting about the Song family, Zhou Zhong and Li Zheng also drank a lot of wine, and the hot pot was almost eaten, and both of them were already a little drunk, at this time, Li Zheng seemed to think of something embarrassing, hesitated for a while, and then said with the strength of the wine: "Wenda, you are now the governor, it should be no problem to arrange a few people to enter the governor's palace, right?" ”

"Into the Governor's Palace?" Zhou Zhong was stunned when he heard this, and then said with a smile, "Why, Brother Berau wants to recommend a few people, if they are good at learning, they can just let them come, now our Governor's Mansion is in a stage of rapid development, and it is the time when we need manpower." ”

Zhou Chong does need manpower now, but as long as he says to Zhengde, the other party will definitely send him a lot of people, although some of these people are reading and reading and have a somewhat pedantic temperament, but most of them are still usable talents, and even those nerds, as long as they stay at the bottom for a few years, in Zhou Chong's words, it is labor reform, and most of them will throw away their nerds, after all, in the face of food and clothing, everything else is empty.

Although Zhou Zhong has no shortage of sources of talents, but now at this time, Li Zheng opened his mouth for the first time to beg himself, so he couldn't open his mouth to refuse, not to mention that it was not difficult for him to arrange a few people, such as a scribe or something, he was not an official at all, and it all depended on his words.

Hearing Zhou Chong's promise, Li Zheng was also overjoyed and said: "I know that you won't refuse, but Minglun and Fang Shi are worried that your refusal will hurt their face, so no matter how I persuade them, they are not willing to come, now it's okay, as long as you agree, I will tell them when I go back, and let them come to you by themselves......"

"Wait, Brother Berao, you said that Brother Minglun and Brother Fang Shi want to come to the Governor's Mansion to serve?" Before Li Zheng finished speaking, Zhou Chong interrupted him in great surprise.

"Yes, the two of them are really, they are always worried that you have a different identity, so they usually don't even dare to visit, let alone ask you to arrange for them to enter the Governor's Mansion as officials." Li Zheng said very happily, he was not only happy because Zhou Chong agreed to his request, but also because although Zhou Chong was no longer what it used to be, there was still no change in these friends.

"Brother Beroe and Brother Fang Shi have just been promoted, if they become officials now, I am afraid it will bring some trouble to their future promotion, although they can still participate in the examination after becoming officials, but the officials are busy with government affairs, I am afraid they do not have much time to study, so I am afraid they will not want to pass the examination!" Zhou Zhong asked again with great concern.

As long as the court is sent, and they are lucky enough, or if they spend money to open up the joints, then they can also be officials as lifters, but in the officialdom they have always paid attention to their background, and they are congenitally inferior to those who are born in Jinshi, and they will not only be looked down upon by officials from Jinshi, but will even affect their future promotions, so many people still desperately want to be admitted to the Jinshi before they become officials.

Of course, there are also many people who still fail to take the test many times, which makes them disheartened, so they trust the relationship or take money to open the way, and finally get a small official such as a county lord, and if you are lucky, you may be able to do the county order, if you are unlucky, you can only sit in your own small official position for a few years, and go home when the term of office expires. Of course, there are a very few talented people who can be promoted to high-ranking officials, or even to the level of prefects, but this is already the limit of lifting people, and it is impossible to rise to the rank of prefect.

Zheng Jing and Zhang Rui are only in their twenties, and they have just passed the examination, although they did not pass the examination this time, they still have time, so there is no need to worry at all, but now Li Zheng said that they want to enter the Governor's Mansion as officials, which makes Zhou Chong unable to figure it out anyway.

Regarding Zhou Chong's question, I saw that Li Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, I was also very surprised when I first learned that Brother Minglun and Brother Fang Shi wanted to become officials, so I also persuaded them, after all, it is too much to be an official as a person, we still have time, it is not too late to study hard for a few years and take the exam again, but then they persuaded me with their own reasons......"

Li Zheng then talked about why Zheng Jing and Zhang Guo were in a hurry to become officials, and said that this matter was also related to Zhou Chong, when Zheng Jing and Zhang Guo entered Beijing to catch the exam, it happened to be when Zhou Zhong and Zhengde migrated from the Central Plains to migrate the victims, and countless victims traveled thousands of miles from the Central Plains to Anton Wei on the beach, and as a result, Zheng Jing and Zhang Jing happened to meet the victims who passed by there when they passed through Yanzhou Mansion, and it can be said that the two of them saw the tragic situation of the victims with their own eyes, and their hearts were also greatly shaken, and even the two of them were unable to sleep and eat for a long time. It turned out that the exam, which was very important to them, even became a little insignificant.

After the exam, Zheng Jing and Zhang Jing both failed to make the list, but the two of them did not show much sadness, but immediately packed their bags and left the capital, but they did not go back to Songjiang directly, but rushed to the hardest-hit area of the Central Plains, and saw the victims who were being re-cultivated there, and then followed the footprints of the migrating victims, and saw the dense graves of the victims on the roadside along the way, which made them greatly shaken. As a result, I saw that the victims were well settled, and each family was allocated their own land and started new farming, and the faces of those victims were no longer the numbness and hunger they had seen before, but happiness and satisfaction.

It was also this extraordinary trip that made Zheng Jing and Zhang Rui both receive a spiritual baptism, they felt that they could no longer waste time so much, but needed to stand up for the people of the world, especially when they saw that although Taiwan had resettled the victims, there was a lack of officials to manage and guide those victims, so they had the idea of wanting to become officials, but they felt that Zhou Chong's identity was unusual now, so they were embarrassed to come to the door for help.
