The sky is as white as a landscape, and in this north-facing hut, it is also sprinkled with a layer of light. .shubaodd.

In the early morning, on this stone-paved road, a carriage passed by, bringing a cloud of dust, Shen Jie and Zhuo'er walked side by side on this road.

"I feel that you can be an official in the county, after all, the appointment letter of Jiangnan Mansion is here." Zhuo'er's tall figure was almost as tall as Shen Jie's.

Shen Jie had no idea at first, especially when he was very guilty. When she said this, he suddenly became confident: "If I become an official in the county right away, we will buy a yard here."

"Okay, I've always liked this kind of life." Zhuo'er was very happy, and said with a smile on his face.

Seeing her more beautiful face because of her smile, Shen Jie felt really lucky to marry such a beautiful woman. He originally had great ambitions in his heart, but these few months of hard life have worn them down, especially his body. Now that it is so ordinary, many wishes are gone. He really only has one ordinary wish now: to be able to live a good life with her in this small town.

Walking from this long street into a secluded road with relatively few people, you will see a county government office with two stone lions in front of the gate.

"That's right here." Zhuo'er said, she had come here to listen to a case before, so she was somewhat familiar with this place.

Still holding the document in his hand, Shen Jie took a few steps forward, turned to look at her, she just raised her plain hand to greet him, "You'd better go back to the inn first, I don't feel at ease here, if you are here by the officials If I like it, I don't want to live anymore." Shen Jie laughed.

"You go, I'll leave right away." Zhuo'er said.

Shen Jie nodded, turned around and walked towards the county government office.

Standing 20 meters away, Zhuo'er saw her husband in name talk to a gatekeeper in front of the yamen holding a long black stick. Originally, the man was still somewhat arrogant, but after Shen Jie said After a few words, his attitude changed after a while and he led Shen Jie in.

She stood here for a while, remembered her husband's entrustment, turned around and left the county office.

The long street leading to the inn hadn't opened yet, and there weren't many people there, so she didn't stay long, and walked straight towards the inn.

In a hall at the back of the third courtyard, a middle-aged county magistrate who is a bit fat sits at the head, holding a bowl of tea in his forehand, and keeps cooling the tea with a tea cover, taking a sip.

But before he started, Shen Jie bowed slightly, and told about his situation. A policeman with a long knife on his back handed the document in Shen Jie's hand to the county magistrate.

Shen Jie was standing below with a calm expression. He was a little nervous, but when he thought of being able to live a formal life with Zhuoer here, he couldn't help but look forward to it even more.

"Shen Xiucai, this document of yours was made a year ago." County Magistrate Liang said.

"My lord, the student has been recuperating at home this year, and he has fully recovered now." Shen Jie heard that the county magistrate's tone was not very good, and he had a faint bad feeling in his heart. He quickly explained, with a very serious attitude Respectfully.

"Do you know that if you don't come back within the corresponding time, this document is equivalent to a piece of waste paper. It is a serious crime to come to this county to defraud an official position with an expired document, do you know?" Liang County magistrate will The document was casually placed on the side of the table, took a cup of tea on the table, and said in a cold tone. "But you are a scholar after all, and the law of this dynasty protects you, so if you go down to receive the [-]th board, go away."

"Pull it down." The county magistrate said to the policeman Han Liyuan next to him with no emotion on his face.

"But there is a reason for this. The student is really ill. My lord, my wife is still waiting for my news. As long as my lord can give me a job in the county government, no matter how big it is, I will definitely do a good job for my lord. "Shen Jie didn't expect such a thing to happen. He had always firmly believed that he could stay in the county government as an official. He couldn't believe what happened today. He desperately wanted to make the county magistrate change his mind. Han Liyuan beside him had big hands like pliers The general dragged Shen Jie down abruptly.

Shen Jie felt as if the sky was about to fall. He was pinned to the ground by two police officers. Han Liyuan took the wooden stick and smashed it down fiercely. A heart-piercing pain hit Shen Jie's chest. On his body, his heart seemed to be hollowed out, and he looked at the empty courtyard with confused eyes.

In front of the gate of the county government, two police officers threw Shen Jie outside, "From now on, don't report such people, just send them away."

. . . . .

Shen Jie didn't know himself at all. He dragged his broken body and walked forward with difficulty. Every time he took a step, his body shook violently.

At this time, there were already many people on the street, and everyone around them was trying to avoid this young man with blood on his legs.

In a corner with few people, he seemed to be unable to bear it anymore, and fell to the base of the wall.
