Chapter 45: The Gift

readx;? Peng Liancheng confessed to what he had done, and it was only a matter of time before Zhou Wenfang confessed the truth, and now that the confession had been obtained, Yang Zhixian and Su Xiuji would take measures for the next trial, and Yang Jing would no longer need to worry about this.

After coming out of the cell, Yang Jing's mood still couldn't calm down for a long time.

For him, Peng Liancheng is a typical example of this era, although he has a deep family background, has a noble literati status, and has a bright and lofty future, but he still can't get rid of the destruction of life on him, so that he has a psychological disorder and commits all kinds of crimes.

In the context of ancient times, the Southern Song Dynasty was an era of open-mindedness, but it was also an extremely depressing era, on the one hand, the literati were proud of their noble status, and on the other hand, they were like peddlers and pawns, bearing the ideological constraints and limitations of this era.

Peng Liancheng prides himself on being orthodox, abiding by the etiquette of scholars, and even killing his relatives in righteousness, but fate played a joke on him and made him a homosexual, as if he wanted to fundamentally deny everything about him.

But this denial did not defeat him, but made him more stubborn, and made him more eager to make up for the collapse of this world.

When the case is here, it should be said that the truth has finally been revealed, but it is still a little early before the case is successfully concluded, because until now, Yang Jing has not been able to see the other key person in the case, Yan Lichun!

The weight of this woman in this case is close to Peng Liancheng, but Yang Jing has not known the true face of Lushan until now.

This daughter-in-law of the Peng family has done a tricky affair with Peng Lianyu, and has participated in almost half of the operation, but due to her sensitive identity, it is unknown what decision Yang Zhixian and Su Xiuji will make for a while.

Is it not afraid of the powerful and continue to investigate, or is it to settle things and get by?

According to Yang Jing's temperament and the education received by later generations, the Son of Heaven committed the same crime as the common people, so it was natural to continue to investigate Yan Lichun's responsibility, but now that he has arrived in this ancient feudal society, he doesn't even know the slightest bit about the laws of the Southern Song Dynasty, and if he wants to continue, there is no way to talk about it.

In retrospect, Song Ci is already in the stage of Zhishi's pension, and he has no responsibility or obligation to get involved in this matter, but from the very beginning, this case has been branded by Song Ci.

Maybe he knew from the beginning that there was fraud in the imperial examination behind the shipwreck case, otherwise he would not have united with Yang Zhixian and blocked the news early, and Jiangling Mansion would not have assigned Su Xiuji and others.

Since Yang Jing contacted the county government, Baling County has always been Yang Zhixian in the front, and the county chief bookkeeper has not taken the lead in this kind of second official, now think about it, maybe Song Ci and Yang Zhixian and others have long been aware of it, so they deliberately controlled these officials related to the imperial examination!

Thinking of this, Yang Jing couldn't help but smile bitterly, what is Yun Gou'er's life experience, he doesn't want to delve into it for the time being, he is involved in this case completely because of Yun Gou'er's infatuation with Lu Yueniang, but Lu Yueniang has already secretly promised Zhou Nan Chu Fang.

After investigating for so long and going through hardships and dangers, Song Ci and others locked on to the target from the beginning, and his Yang Jing's investigation seemed to run through the overall situation, but he still couldn't escape the calculations of Song Ci and others, which was really a little depressing.

After returning to the residence, Yang Jing put aside all his thoughts and wanted to sleep well, but as soon as he lay down, Yang Zhixian came to the door.

Yang Jing's role and contribution in this case are undoubted, and coupled with his help to Yang Zhixian, Yang Zhixian naturally has to be rewarded.

The small courtyard where Yang Jing lives now is arranged by Yang Zhi County, although it is also in the back office, the house is a little dilapidated, but it is spacious enough, and the old mother and the cook in the county government are called casually, but they also live comfortably.

Since Yang Zhixian has regarded Yang Jing as a confidant, he doesn't play officially, and he doesn't have much superficial effort, so he goes straight to the point as soon as he comes in.

"Virtuous nephew, this case is also solved, some follow-up issues are a bit big, and we still need to consider it, Uncle Shi, I have already reported to Jiangling Mansion, and there shouldn't be too many things for us in the future..."

"Sure enough..."Although Yang Jing had already guessed, but after hearing Yang Zhixian's personal confirmation, it was inevitable that he was a little helpless in his heart, but Yang Zhixian was able to tell the truth, which was enough to show his trust in Yang Jing.

"How can the study not escape the responsibility this week, the county master book and the teaching has also been imprisoned, and will be escorted to Jiangling Mansion in the near future, this county government is now mostly empty, on the occasion of employing people, Uncle Shi is not polite to you, the position of the criminal case, I want to let the virtuous nephew top, if the nephew has no objection, I will report it tomorrow." ”

Yang Jing's ability to handle cases is obvious to all, during this period of time, he is also familiar with the yamen, and he has intersected with Wang Dou and other officials, and he has been born and died, plus Yang Zhixian is commensurate with his uncle and nephew, Yang Zhixian is now firmly in the position of the county master, these county officials are afraid that they will be involved in the fraud case, and how dare they disobey Yang Zhixian.

So as long as Yang Jing nods, the official position of the criminal case pusher is an ironclad matter, and there is no need to worry about the people below disobeying discipline.

In all fairness, he is still more interested in the position of criminal case pusher, this is his old job, and there are many scribes and bookkeepers to help deal with official documents, he only needs to concentrate on solving the case, how could Yang Jing refuse?

"Uncle Shi has the heart to promote, and the nephew is better to obey his fate than to be respectful, and he should do his best to do his errands and live up to Uncle Shi's trust!"

Seeing Yang Jing's statement, Yang Zhixian also smiled and nodded with satisfaction, and then lowered his voice and said to Yang Jing.

"According to the rules of the imperial court, after the case is solved, the proceeds of the investigation can be rewarded to the meritorious people, I think the Zhou Wenfang that courtyard is not bad, although it is far away from the yamen, but it is quiet and elegant, and it covers a wide area, so I will find it for you, and after a few days of evidence collection, I will let people repair it, and the right to be the place where the virtuous nephew stays." ”

When Yang Jing heard this, he was also happy, Zhou Wenfang's courtyard was a mansion, although the main building was destroyed, but the lotus pond and medicine garden inside were very pleasing to Yang Jing, Yang Jing was happy, and he was grateful.

This week, the scholar and Peng Liancheng also have a lot of family background, and the Peng family wants to save Peng Liancheng's life, I believe that Yang Zhixian must have received a lot of benefits, and seeing that Yang Jing has taken over the other courtyard, he thinks that Yang Jing is well versed in the rules of officialdom, so he naturally feels very pleased.

Yang Jing had long planned to leave the Miao Village of the Lu family, and since he decided to do his old job, he also needed a place to settle down, and it was most suitable for this courtyard to be transformed into a base camp.

The medicine garden can be used to cultivate herbs, and it can also be rebuilt into a laboratory, and when you have time, you can study it to see if you can get some penicillin and other drugs out, if it goes well, it will provide Yang Jing with a great boost.

After sending Yang Zhixian away, Yang Jing thought of this, and he lost his sleepiness, and after lying down for a while, he heard a knock on the door, and when he opened the door, he saw that it was the second elder of the Cao family who came to the door.

Thanks to Yang Jing, Cao Enzhi was very difficult to escape, and Li Wanniang's life was also saved by Yang Jing, so the family supported Li Wanniang and came to Yang Jing's side to thank her.

Cao Enzhi seemed a little absent-minded, and should still be thinking about the outcome of Peng Liancheng's trial, but at this time, he and Xia Zhi's girl were supporting Li Wanniang, and it could be seen that the husband and wife still had a deep relationship.

Yang Jing welcomed them into the house, and hurriedly asked the old mother who lived in the side room to boil water and make tea.

"Young Master Yang, my Cao family has been rescued by the son, and I feel sorry for it, just to intercede for the dog Enrong, I also sent a lot of money, and now I am also a family disciple, Xia Zhi This girl is smart and clever, diligent in her hands and feet, and she is very good at serving people, let her serve the son in the future, and I hope that the son will not shirk..."

Old Man Cao looked a little embarrassed, and seemed to feel that this gift was a little light, and his old face was a little unbearable.

Yang Jing looked at the deed of selling her body, and she didn't feel good in her heart, a slave like Xia Zhi, with a humble status, was sent by her master like goods, which really made Yang Jing a little unacceptable.

But he also knows that Xia Zhi is now lonely, because she once betrayed Li Wanniang, although she was not poisoned in the end, but the Cao family can no longer tolerate her, if he doesn't accept it, Xia Zhi will only suffer in the Cao family.

Moreover, he and Xia Zhi are also in trouble, and they have their own mansions in the future, and they also need people to manage them, and Xia Zhi has rich experience in life, so he is obviously the best candidate.

However, Yang Jing still shirked and said something like a gentleman not winning people's love, Cao Enzhi and Li Wanniang insisted again and again, and Yang Jing also turned to Xia Zhi and asked, "Xia Zhi, are you willing to follow Brother Yang?"

Xia Zhi has been nervously supporting Li Wanniang, Yang Jing helped her take revenge, following Yang Jing is naturally thousands of times better than in the Cao family, she is still afraid that Yang Jing doesn't want her, hearing Yang Jing's question, she quickly nodded vigorously and agreed.

Old Man Cao was a little unhappy when he saw that Xia Solstice was so simple, but since he had decided to send it out, there was no point in thinking about these side matters.

Mrs. Cao took out another letter of silver and gave it to Yang Jing, Yang Jing refused to accept it, Cao Enzhi and Li Wanniang were also persuading, and they shirked it, and let the summer solstice girl accept it.

After sending away this family, Xia Zhi also helped Li Wanniang to go back, anyway, she didn't have much luggage, she knew that the Cao family was going to give her to Yang Jing, so she packed up early, and returned to Yang Jing's residence with her bag on her back, even if she had nothing to do with the Cao family, she would be Yang Jing's person in the future.

"Master..."Xia Zhi couldn't hide the joy in his heart, and was a little shy to Yang Jing to formally pay the salute of master and servant, but Yang Jing pulled her up.

"I'm not old, what's my name, get up!" Yang Jing chuckled, and pulled Xia Zhi up without saying anything.

"Master Cao has already sent the slave and maid out, and the slave and maid will naturally be the master's person in the future..."Xia Zhi buried his head and said softly with red ears.

"Don't be a master in the future, just call me Brother Yang, what kind of master and slave, I listened awkwardly, you will be my sister in the future, let's live a good life..."

Xia Zhi also knew Yang Jing's character, but the gift of the master and servant could not be abolished, so he immediately shook his head and said: "How can this be done, Xia Zhi is the master's slave, and he will serve the master in the future... If the master dislikes it, he will call the young master in the future on the summer solstice, and this rule cannot be abolished..."

This feudal ideology of etiquette has been deeply rooted, and it will be difficult for the summer solstice girl to change it for a while, so Yang Jing is no longer reluctant, and pretends to be serious and says: "Okay, in the future, you will call me young master outside, and call me big brother at home, so decided, you can't bargain anymore, otherwise I will send you back to Cao's house!"

"It's... Master... Oh no, big brother..."Although Xia Zhi was a little unaccustomed, when the eldest brother called out, his heart was still sweet.

It's not too early, the two talked for a while, and Xia Zhi called hot water to wait for Yang Jing to wash and sleep, while he simply sorted out his luggage and slept outside.

Yang Jing can be regarded as having gained a lot, thinking that he will finally be able to leave the Lu family in the future and no longer send people under the fence, the case has been solved again, and he finally let go of everything, slept very comfortably, and said nothing all night.

On the second day, Yang Jing slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up, and as soon as he ate something, Song Fengya and Xu Fengwu came to the door.
