After becoming a widow, I became the mother of seven children

After Yan Qingqing finished solving the problem for Magistrate Ling, it was Magistrate Ling's turn to solve the problem for him.

She didn't mince words and said directly: "Magistrate Ling, I came to you this time because I want to ask you to coordinate something."

When County Magistrate Ling heard that Yan Qingqing had something to ask him for, he smiled and said, "You can tell me anything you want? I will never refuse as long as I can do it."

Yan Qingqing told her what the Han family had begged her to do.

Magistrate Ling frowned and said, "Is the Shen family really so arrogant?"

Yan Qingqing nodded. The Shen family has not been arrogant for a day or two. Yan Qingqing clearly remembers Mrs. Liu's attitude towards Mrs. Shen. Even the prefect Mr. Liu wanted to let Shen Tong know.

Naturally, it is not a problem for Magistrate Ling to take action in this matter. Even Yan Qingqing can solve the problem by herself. After all, her rank is there now, and she is still a popular person in the court. Even the Chief Secretary of Xuancheng Mansion must give her some face.

Magistrate Ling asked curiously: "Actually, you can't solve this matter yourself. Why do you come to me to discuss it?"

Yan Qingqing smiled and said: "This Han Xiucai is a student from Chengyang County, with good knowledge and character. And he is about to take the exam, so he is expected to win the first prize in one fell swoop.

You are the parent official of Chengyang County, and it is your duty to protect the students under your jurisdiction. Moreover, if he can win the first prize in one fell swoop, it will be of great benefit to your political achievements. "

There was indeed nothing wrong with Yan Qingqing's words, but Magistrate Ling always felt that something was wrong. As for what was wrong, he couldn't tell for a while.

However, Magistrate Ling thought for a while and finally said: "How about this, let's go to Fucheng first to understand the situation?

If Han Xiucai was really wronged, I would naturally redress his grievances on his behalf.

But if he really engages in sneaky behavior, I will never protect him.

At this point, I hope that Ming Zhaoshuo and I will be on a united front. "

Yan Qingqing laughed when he heard this and said: "This is natural. It's not the first day that Magistrate Ling has met me. Although I am a woman, I still have this bottom line.

I will never condone and protect the Han family just because they know me.

I just think it’s not easy to be a scholar. After ten years of hard work, it was a time to serve the court with passion, but it’s a pity that my life was ruined because of unexpected changes. "

Although Ling County Magistrate is a dandy and does not need to take the scientific examination to obtain official positions like other scholars, this does not mean that he does not understand the hardships of scholars.

Finally, Yan Qingqing and Magistrate Ling agreed to set off to Fucheng together the next day.

So Yan Qingqing got up early the next morning and specially dressed in men's clothes.

They have a long way to go to Fucheng. If it takes three or four days to take a carriage, the matter will not be resolved immediately when they arrive in Fucheng. Mediation will definitely have to be done and they will have to take a carriage back again.

Don't even think about coming back if it doesn't last more than ten and a half months.

Yan Qingqing's time was very precious. Although she was willing to save Han Yu, the cost was too high.

Thinking of this, Yan Qingqing asked Ruyi to call Yuan Huiniang, and he wanted to explain a few things about the family.

Yuan Huiniang came over in a hurry when she heard that Yan Qingqing was going to Fucheng.

As soon as he entered the door, he asked: "Mom, are you leaving for Fucheng today? Why is it so sudden? I haven't had time to pack your things."

Yan Qingqing smiled and said: "No need to prepare anything, just bring the banknote.

There are many people at home and many things to do. I'm afraid it will be hard on you these days.

There are your third aunt and Yueniang over there at the embroidery workshop, plus your grandma is in charge, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

On the other hand, although the chemical washing workshop has not yet been officially put into production, there should be a lot of things going on. If there is any situation, you can help take care of it. I'm afraid Xiang An doesn't know as much as you do in this regard.

Regardless of whether things work out or not, she will be back within ten days at most.

In addition, if Shopkeeper Yun comes to pick up the conversation book, you should give him the book in the first compartment on the shelf in the study. "

Yan Qingqing explained it like an old woman, and Yuan Huiniang took note of everything carefully.

After a simple breakfast, Yan Qingqing took Mu Xi and set off.

Yan Qingqing originally wanted to bring more people with her. After all, she now has status and family background.

But Yan Qingqing then thought about it and thought that those people on the mountain were her trump cards and could not be exposed prematurely.

Besides, she was traveling with Magistrate Ling this time. Magistrate Ling was the direct son of the Ling family, so his safety was guaranteed.

Yan Qingqing and Mu Xi rode horses to the county government office, but she didn't expect that Ling Ziyuan, a big man, would be the opposite of her.

Ling Ziyuan not only prepared an exquisite car, but also packed several carriages with food, drinks and supplies as if he were going out for a trip.

Yan Qingqing and Mu Xi were dumbfounded after seeing this fight. They looked at each other and had the urge to cover their faces.

Ling Ziyuan was a little embarrassed when he saw Yan Qingqing traveling in simple clothes and wearing men's clothes.

He touched his nose and said: "Haha, Mr. Ming Zhaoshuo, I have prepared these for you. After all, your current identity is here. How can you fool those corrupt officials who live in Fucheng without a lattice battle?" Dirty official."

Yan Qingqing had no intention of joking with Ling Ziyuan, so she said seriously: "Master Ling, thank you for your kindness. But I really don't have that much time. If you really want to do this, we can go separately. I will go to Fucheng to explore the road first.

If I solve the problem, we can come back together.

If we can't solve Master Ling, we can come forward again. "

Seeing that Yan Qingqing was angry, Ling Ziyuan quickly said: "Oh, how can this be done?

We agreed to go all the way. Since you don't like this, it's okay for us to travel lightly. "

After saying that, he ordered his servants to prepare their horses quickly. Then he left the county government office with four guards.

Yan Qingqing could feel that the four guards following them were definitely experts, and they were still classified as secret guards.

However, Yan Qingqing didn't ask any more questions, as long as her own safety was no problem.

Soon Yan Qingqing and his party left Chengyang County.

Ling Ziyuan really didn't expect that Yan Qingqing's riding skills were so good, no worse than him.

Ling Ziyuan came from a family of military generals. Although he was a playboy since he was a child, he was definitely not uneducated as he was cultivated by a big family. He was proficient in bow and horse, and his literary talent was above average.

So looking at Yan Qingqing's firm back, he also became eager to win.

Except for finding a small shop to eat something at noon, they did not rest for a moment.

In the evening they arrived at Fucheng.

Even though Ling Ziyuan had been practicing martial arts since he was young, he couldn't bear it, but Yan Qingqing didn't say a word.

He looked at Yan Qingqing who was riding on the horse and complained: "Let me tell you, Zhaoshuo, there is no need for you to fight so hard. I don't know, I thought Han Yu was your son.

My old bones are falling apart. I need to find an inn to rest first. If anything big happens, I have to wait until tomorrow. "

Yan Qingqing was also a little tired. She was in the mood for riding a horse today, so she didn't worry about Ling Ziyuan for the moment.

Now that I heard what he said, I naturally agreed.
