Lord Liang, the state capital, was busy for a day, and felt that things were almost arranged, so he returned to the spirit shed while hammering his sore old waist.

Inside the mourning shed, there was smoke, and several Taoist priests were chanting non-stop.

Although on weekdays, because Lord Liang always provokes the girls in the house, Mrs. Zhengfang Mi has a lot of disagreements with him. But now that the old lady had an accident at the birthday banquet, Mrs. Mi began to share the same hatred with her husband, advancing and retreating together, taking care of the daily affairs of the house on the one hand, and at the same time taking on the funeral of the old lady Liang on the other. She knew the status of the old lady in her husband's heart, and she didn't dare to slack off, and kept putting incense and burning paper into the coffin in the shed while wearing linen and filial piety.

Liang Zheng saw the eldest lady in the mourning hall constantly Zhang Luo, knowing that she was also working hard day after day, and couldn't help but think of the old man lying in the coffin with two pieces of corpse, and sadness came from it.

Liang Zheng's wife, Mrs. Mi, was a family affair personally given by the old lady back then. At that time, Liang Zheng was still a who was idle in the street all day long, relying on his solid family background, and did many bad things to bully men and women. Old lady Liang chose thousands of choices and decided to marry Mrs. Mi into the Liang family, so that this prodigal son Liang Zheng could take his heart.

When Liang Zheng reached the age of taking the imperial examination, the old lady did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to help him buy the main examination, and secretly changed Dong Shusheng's papers in exchange for a fame.

Today's science field in Daxia is no longer the clear canal and living water when the first emperor was alive, the officials and officials guard each other, the family inherits, and the hidden rules of upward and downward effects abound, but Liang Zheng ran into Dong Shusheng, who admitted death.

As a result, Dong Shusheng reported the unfairness of the examination room, and this was a felony that could go directly to the Dragon Court on the official face. The government gave the ball to the branch field, and the officials of the department took the opportunity to knock the Liang family again. Liang Zheng still remembers his father's low-level appearance in front of the section officer.

"Liang Yuanwai, it's not that I won't help you. It's just that this time I met Dong Shusheng, a poor scholar who admits death, and I'm afraid that your son's official position will be spit out. ”

Liang Yuanwai also made some fox friends in the officialdom, knowing the real intentions of the section officer's face, he smiled all over his face, "My lord said that he was laughing, if this is according to the wishes of the poor scholar, according to his virtues, I am afraid that he will not let people be ignored, but he will be held accountable." ”

"Liang Yuanwai said the same, then it seems that we can only wait for the head to move together. ”

"The adults laughed again, even if something really happened, it was all my Lao Liang who caused trouble, what does it have to do with the adults? Besides, the adults just pity me and feel sorry for the son who is not angry. ”

"Well, Liang Yuan is righteous, and things are not without a turnaround. ”

Seeing that the other party was finally willing to show his hole cards, Liang Yuanwai held back the hatred in his heart, and still had a flattering face, "It's all up to the adults to guide him." ”

"Well, last time you had 10,000 taels of activity funds, the official has done everything to help your son-in-law get fame, and I also see that your beloved son is earnest, and I also posted some of them. But this time, if you want to keep your official position, you have to do some investigations, and the price will not be cheap, you see......"

"Your Excellency, do you estimate how much it will take?"

"That's the case. As he spoke, the section officer stretched out his palm and flipped it twice.

"What?100,000 taels?" Liang Yuanwai was so frightened by this number that he blurted out, and Liang Zheng, who was eavesdropping outside the door, scolded secretly in his heart, saying that the yamen was open to the south, and there was no reason to come in without money, but this dog official's heart was too dark. Although the Liang family has a lot of money, such a high amount of bribes is far beyond the limit of what they can bear.

Liang Zheng broke into the living room, "Dad, the child is not the material to be an official, don't embarrass me." ”

The two people who were plotting in the house were startled by Liang Zheng's sudden intrusion, Liang looked really outside, and the section officer's face suddenly sank, and he wanted to have a seizure, so he hurriedly scolded, "There are no big or small things, is there a place for adults to interject when they talk? ”

Although Liang Zheng made a mistake, he still restrained himself in front of Liang Yuanwai, otherwise, the old man was unhappy and cut off his monthly money, which was not a joke.

Liang Zheng still wanted to argue, "Dad." ”

was slapped to the head by Liang Yuanwai, "Get out." ”

Drove away Liang Zheng, the old man turned his head and smiled, "My lord, the dog is spoiled by me, you don't think it's strange, the number you said is also reasonable, I will definitely raise it as soon as possible, my lord ......"

Liang Yuanwai wanted to say more, but was rudely interrupted by the section officer, "Maybe we need such a straightforward talent in our official mansion?" 150,000 taels, ready in three days, otherwise I can only accompany your Liang family to lose my head!"

After the section officer finished reprimanding, he did not say goodbye, and left with his sleeves.

After Liang Zheng waited for the section officer to leave, he came to defend again, "Dad, that dog official clearly wants to blackmail, you are quite a shrewd person, why are you at his mercy? Besides, if he is investigated in the imperial examination, he can't get out of it, so we are not afraid that he will go to Gaomi?"

Lao Liang was already made evil by the section officer, looking at his ignorant child, he added fuel to the fire, and picked up his sleeves is a punch, who knew that Liang Zheng was idle, but it was not useless, he practiced a pimple meat, and the old Liang's wrist on the top was broken, and he bent down with a "oops".

Liang Zheng hurriedly picked up the old man and helped him rub his wrist, "Dad, don't be angry, don't I feel sorry for our family's little money that you have worked hard to save." ”

This sentence made Lao Liang's heart warm, and he looked at Liang Zheng's eyes full of love, "Zheng'er, it's good that you understand your father's hard work, if you interject a word, you will let the section officer ask for an extra 50,000 taels, now you know what the official position means." Dad has worked hard all his life, and our family background is not as valuable as other people's two sentences, alas, if you can be as competitive as Dong Shusheng, Dad doesn't have to go through these side ways. ”

"What's so good about that poor scholar, he hasn't worked in vain in the end?" Liang Zheng was dissatisfied, but he couldn't find the words to refute this complaint about Liang Yuanwai for a while.

Now that it is difficult to ride a tiger, Liang Yuanwai is determined to win his son's career, he reluctantly sold almost all the family property, even Mrs. Mi's dowry jewelry has been wiped out, and he also borrowed all the friends in the business field, so that he finally made up enough of the number of section officers.

The Liang family went bankrupt, Dong Shusheng was beaten and almost died, and an alternate official position directly changed the trajectory of many people's lives.

Now Liang Zheng looked at the coffin of the old lady Liang, recalling that this old man did not hesitate to send himself to the official career, even if he was ruthless, he couldn't help but have red circles in his eyes.

Mrs. Mi on the side walked over and handed Liang Zheng three green incense, "Be in charge, please give incense to the old man, he has also worked hard all his life, just let him rest for the old man." ”

"Hmm. Liang Zheng put the incense on his forehead and bowed three times, then inserted it into the incense burner, and kowtowed respectfully three times.

After the ceremony, Liang Zheng was about to leave. Mrs. Mi on the side stopped for a moment, and stopped talking.

Liang Zheng rarely stopped, and looked at his main room seriously, Mrs. Mi didn't know when there was a little gray hair on her head, after all, this was the daughter-in-law personally designated by Liang Yuanwai, Liang Zheng suddenly felt a little distressed about this yellow-faced woman.

"Why, ma'am, is there anything wrong?"

"Master, you are the pillar of our family. Mrs. Mi said softly, she looked at Liang Zheng cautiously, and found that he did not show impatience as before, so she continued,

"I heard about Sun Yi. It stands to reason that his skills are also good. But I didn't even see who the other party was. Master, I know that I shouldn't intervene in the outside world, but it's not easy for us to get to where we are today, you see that I just invited a few masters who can do things, if I let them do a ritual for that unjust ghost, maybe I will overtake the past injustices......"

Liang Zheng wanted to have a seizure, and looked at the few Taoist mages who were still chanting words and taking care of things, after all, they were still above the mourning hall, and they knew in their hearts that Mrs. Mi was also out of kindness, but this kind of woman's opinion made Liang Zheng a little unhappy after all, he raised his hand and motioned to Mrs. to silence, "I have my own arrangements, you just need to help me arrange the affairs in the house." ”

Mrs. Mi still wanted to fight for it, but Liang Zheng had already changed color, so she had to give up, sighed, and continued to stay next to the coffin, and continued to throw layers of yellow paper into the charcoal basin.

It is indeed not easy for Liang Zheng to get to where he is today, but it is the ups and downs along the way that make him think that he has seen through the essence of this world and the hearts of all kinds of people in the world.

Nothing tames a man like strength, and nothing wins hearts and minds like conquest.

In front of Dong Shusheng, he insulted his woman. He personally chopped Li Wanzong with a big knife. He also used all means to make his former opponents bow down in front of him. Now, how could he bow his head to a little hairy child who pretended to be a ghost, and this little rabbit cub actually killed his old man with such a murderous method.

There are no terrible ghosts in this world, but the bravado of those shameless people who can only hide in dark corners. Even if he is a powerful ghost, his current strength Liang Zheng is enough to fight with him. Everything is under Liang Zheng's control.

The forces mobilized by the state capital this time are not only the servants of the government office, but also a strong army stationed in the local area.

The Five Armies of Great Xia, the Northern Army Chang Sheng, the Eastern Army Fuyao, the Southern Army Dingbian, the Western Army Chiyan, and of course, the Imperial Court Army under the personal command of the emperor.

A local official like Liangzhou Mansion is no more powerful than General Chang Polu of the Defense Department of the Fifth Army, and it is even more impossible to mobilize the Eastern Army of Great Xia without military charms.

It's just that in the name of cooperating with the suppression of bandits, the Liangzhou government privately gave enough "funds" to several lieutenants in Fuyao, and asked them to go to the Broken Rock Cliff in the name of a drill to exterminate a teenager who pretended to be a ghost.

A Fuyao lieutenant couldn't help but joke, "Brothers, I have long heard of the thunderous style of Liangzhou Mansion, how can a mere bandit let you be so careful, and more than 300 people in our three battalions are involved." ”

Liang Zheng said, "The generals don't know, this bandit is really tough, and he has superb martial arts, and he dared to hold this official hostage at the age of ten." Now he should be fifteen or sixteen years old, and he must be even more stubborn, and this time he bothered the generals to make sure that such bandits would not be allowed to go unpunished and harm the people. ”

"Lord Liang, don't worry, there are our brothers from the 300 Fuyao Battalion, don't say that a bandit is an immortal, and we will also let him ambush him. ”

"It's so good, it's so good, after the deed is done, the people of the government will be thanked. ”

Lord Liang made a generous move, which was also one of the reasons why he was able to rise to prominence, and several captains of the Fuyao Army were naturally secretly happy when they heard such a promise from Liang Zhoufu, and they would prepare their ordnance when they went back and obey Liang Zheng's dispatch at any time.

Of course, Liang Zheng also made an agreement with Qinghu, and when the time comes, he will ask Qinghu as a backup, if he can't shake the dead, then Qinghu will do it for him and completely solve this remnant of the Li family.

Liang Zheng now has enough strength to make him confident, and he wants to surpass this powerful ghost.

Li Chongguang, are you ready? No matter how you got away with it last time, since you don't want to live well, then I don't mind sending you on your way again.
