I pretend to be a fairy in ancient times

Zhao Ji knew that Zhao Hui was kind to the Zhao family when he helped bury Father Zhao's body.Moreover, after the people of this era are well-off, it is common sense to help and promote relatives. If Father Zhao is still alive, it is impossible for Father Zhao to refuse Zhao Hun's son if he wants to work as an apprentice in the Zhao family drugstore.

It is not considered offensive for Aunt Zhang to make such a request.But Zhao Ji didn't want to recruit relatives to help at home. It would be troublesome enough to have a secret agent named Caidie arranged by Yan Yunkai.

Although Cai Die is troublesome, she doesn't have to worry about finding her husband's family. Zhao Xing'er still has to worry about finding her husband's family. He feels that he can't afford this responsibility.In contrast, he is more willing to give their family a sum of money.

When Aunt Zhang was embarrassed because it was difficult to meet her in the future, Zhao Ji continued, "How about this, I just want to go to Fucheng, and then I will help Sister Xing'er make a set of gems and buy all the furniture for the dowry. Give another 100 taels of silver to the bottom of the box. With this dowry, my aunt can find a well-known young scholar in the countryside to be her son-in-law. The mother and daughter can meet each other frequently. gone."

Aunt Zhang was very moved by Zhao Ji's words. Just as Aunt Zhang was talking to Zhao Ji, Zhao Hun came home with his youngest son.When Zhao Ji said that he wanted to help Zhao Xing'er with the dowry, Zhao Hun walked to the door.

Since his ten-year-old son, Zhao Jiang, had already told Zhao Hui about Zhao Ji's development, he would not refuse Zhao Ji's funding, but only wanted to hide behind the door to hear how much Zhao Ji planned to pay.

Because these days, when a rich family marries a maid, they will give a lot of dowry. There is a boy on the street who married a maid from the magistrate's family. Although he is a bit older, the dowry is very generous. An oil and salt shop.

The literary style of Huizhou Prefecture is prosperous, and there are often families who have obtained fame and become officials abroad.And for these promising people, after returning to their hometowns, the way to benefit the village is to open schools and provide free education for the children of the clan.Zhao Ji didn't open a school, nor did he buy a large piece of land as the family's sacrificial field. Judging from Zhao Hui's knowledge, neither of them was very developed.

Zhao Hui lived in a wooden building, and the sound insulation effect was not good. Zhao Hui was eavesdropping outside the door. Wang Xiaoqi had discovered him a long time ago. Wang Xiaoqi wanted to tell Zhao Ji. Pushing the door open and coming in, he bowed to Zhao Ji from afar and said, "Young master is back."

According to the memory of the original body, Zhao Hun who lived in the back street was two years younger than his father Zhao, and he was only 32 years old this year. However, Zhao Hun's hair was all gray and he looked very old. Thin and skinny, it doesn't fit the image of a chef with a fat head and big ears at all.

Because the owner of the restaurant where Zhao Hui works is too shrewd, he can buy as much meat and vegetables as possible, and stealing food is not allowed at all, and even the swill is collected to raise pigs, and they only give some to their workers every day It's worthless, vegetarian dishes that are about to go bad, and he only eats meat twice a month, how could he gain weight.

But the wages paid by this restaurant are high, plus Aunt Zhang usually sells a little bit of money, and their family still provides for Zhao Jiang to study. He is not required to take a test of merit. If he can study until he is 15 years old, he will be sent to the pawnshop The tent is also a way out, even if you can only be a clerk, you can slowly become a shopkeeper.

Zhao Hui himself only studied in a private school for two years, and he couldn't read all the words. Later, he became a cook, and he just showed his stupid strength. He hoped that his son could do better than him.

After sitting down, Zhao Hui smiled and said to Zhao Ji that he had just heard outside the door that Zhao Ji was going to make a dowry for Zhao Xing'er, and the smile on his face seemed very sincere.

At this time, Zhao Xing'er had already hid upstairs, Zhao Hun thanked Zhao Ji a thousand times, and at the same time called her daughter to come down and kowtow to Zhao Ji, Zhao Ji just refused twice, Zhao Xing'er had already kowtowed to him, and he was also accepted. gift.

Zhao Ji has been in this world for more than a month. Either he needs to kneel down to others, or others want to kowtow to him. At first, he felt very awkward, but now he is more or less used to it, so he doesn't struggle too much.

Fortunately, because he cured the emperor's illness, although he didn't want to be an imperial doctor, he won the benefit of not kneeling before seeing officials. This is actually not a big reward.As long as he doesn't enter the palace to find no fun, he should only kneel down when he worships his ancestors in his life.

Zhao Hui knew that Zhao Ji wanted him to go to Fucheng to testify, just like he could accept Zhao Ji's dowry for his daughter without guilt. As a family member, he thought it was his duty to help in the lawsuit, and even proposed Follow him to Zhaojia Village in the countryside to find more relatives.

But Zhao Ji refused. Zhao Hun and Zhao Lao's ancestors belonged to the same family, but Zhaojia Village in the countryside was far away from their two families.

For some unknown reason, the population of this branch of the city has not been able to develop, and there are only three families at most. In the past, Father Zhao's father had a younger brother. Unfortunately, this uncle has no children, and the family property is all owned by Father Zhao. This nephew inherited it, but Zhao Hui got nothing.In that Zhao Family Village, everyone in the village has the surname Zhao, and Zhao Ji didn't want to get too involved with them, just like Zhao Ji didn't want Zhao Xing'er to go to the capital.

So Zhao Ji said to Zhao Hui, "Uncle, we are going to go to Fucheng at night tonight, and it's too late to go to the countryside. You can tidy up a little, and we'll go."

Zhao Hui responded without procrastinating, and hurried back to the room, changing into the best muslin clothes.Not long after, there was the sound of a carriage outside the door, and someone knocked on the door again, "Young Master Zhao, everything is ready, let's go."

Sanjiang County is not a strategically important place, and the county seat has no city walls. Zhao Ji took two carriages and left the city in the dark without alarming anyone.

It is now the beginning of the month, and the moon in the sky is only a thin slit. Zhao Ji and Zhao Hun are sitting in a carriage in front, Li Tian is also sitting in this carriage, and Wang Xiaoqi is in charge of driving. , anyway, the speed is not slow at all, it can only be said that it really deserves to be a scout.

Li Su'er and Qian Shiye, who were knocked out, were in the car behind, and there were also two guards behind them.There were two other people, one of whom dispatched troops with the paperwork to arrest Qu Wenying, and the other was in charge of keeping an eye on Qu Xiong.

These were all arranged by Li Tian. He said that Qu Xiong was a martial artist after all. If he found something wrong and ran away early, it would be difficult to catch him.

In the early hours of the morning, the carriage arrived outside Huizhou Fucheng. The Fucheng has a city wall, and the city gate has not been opened yet. Zhao Ji and the others are not in a hurry to enter the city. Li Tian asked Wang Xiaoqi to drive the carriage to the small road next to the official road. Wang Xiaoqi continued to guard Zhao Ji.

Li Tian arrived at the car behind and asked two guards to drag Master Qian and Li Su'er to the nearby woods. After an hour, Li Tian and the others dragged Li Su'er and Master Qian out again. They were all awake, but they looked at Li Tian with fear in their eyes. Although their mouths were blocked, they didn't even dare to make a whimpering sound.

At this time, it was already daylight, and Zhao Ji finally saw Li Su'er and the others clearly.

Although described as embarrassed, Li Su'er in her early twenties is the most beautiful age. She has a beautiful appearance and fair skin.What really catches the eye is his good figure.At this time, her clothes are messy, her front is convex and her back is turned up, and her good figure with slender waist and straight legs is more obvious. It is no wonder that Zhao Lao and Qu Xiong are fascinated by her.

According to Zhao Ji's idea, although Li Su'er has a romantic nature and ruined other people's marriages, she is clever in house fighting and once bullied Lady Xiao, but the crime is not worthy of death.

In the matter of persecuting the Zhao family, Li Su'er was at most an accomplice.Because it was Qu Xiong who directly killed Father Zhao, the property of the Zhao family fell into Master Qian's hands.

However, according to the laws of the Jin Dynasty, Li Su'er was a fugitive slave who colluded with outsiders and murdered her master's family, so she should be cut in half.Even Mr. Qian, who murdered for money, only needs to be beheaded.Although beheading and beheading are both death sentences, beheading is a slow death process, which is very tormenting and shocking.

But of course Zhao Ji would not object to the law. After Li Su'er was taken to the magistrate's yamen, he would have no objection to the yamen's judgment according to law.

Zhao Ji felt that Li Su'er was not guilty enough to die, but in Li Tian's mind, Li Su'er was the culprit of the whole incident, and they didn't show any kindness to a flirtatious woman like her.

Li Tian took the confession, walked up to Zhao Ji, hesitated for a moment before handing the confession to Zhao Ji, and at the same time said in a low voice, "Mr.

After reading Father Zhao's confession, he realized why Li Tian's expression was so weird. It turned out that Father Zhao was tortured to death alive.

They deliberately stripped Zhao's father's clothes and did not give him food.After he fell ill and fell into a coma, he was dressed again, and a doctor was called for according to the normal procedures, but after Mr. Zhao fell asleep, he poured cold water on his clothes. Mr. Zhao had a high fever and died the next day. There is no wound on the body at all.

Even if he is not the father and son of Zhao, but seeing such evil deeds, Zhao Ji is also furious. When this man commits evil, he is just as good as a beast.

The confessions that tortured Father Zhao to death all came from Master Qian. Li Su'er did not directly participate in the killing, but there were other things in her confession.

This caught Zhao Ji's attention, and he specifically pointed it out to Li Tian that Qu Xiong had hosted a banquet for King Wei's long history half a month ago. What Li Su'er heard was that King Wei had heard that Qu Xiong was excellent in martial arts, and intended to recruit him For the guests of the palace.

Li Tian sneered, "In ancient times, nobles could recruit guests, but this system was abolished in the previous dynasty. Now there is no position for guests in the palace, only the prince's subordinates have guests."

Zhao Ji looked at Li Tian, ​​"Is King Wei's fief in Jiangnan?"

Li Tian nodded and said, "A rich land west of Ganzhou and north of Suzhou is the fiefdom of King Wei."

Zhao Ji asked again, "Is it because Master Guoshi sensed that the king of Wei was rebellious, so he made this trip to the south of the Yangtze River?"

Li Tian was stunned for a while, thinking of Yan Yunkai's private instructions to him, finally nodded to Zhao Ji, and then added, "Wei Wang is restless, it's not a secret at all, and now he is more and more unscrupulous, what the master means It is the first to strike first.”

"Master Guoshi, can you stand up to righteousness?" Zhao Ji asked very worriedly, but also very eccentrically.

Li Tian said, "There is a lot of evidence, and this time the Wei Palace was too arrogant and killed [-] of our spies directly. The master is not someone who is used to swallowing his anger. The Wei Palace must pay the price."

Li Tian's originally unattractive face became a little ferocious.

Zhao Hui was sitting next to Zhao Ji, feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles. When Li Tian was talking to Zhao Ji just now, he didn't avoid him on purpose. At this time, Zhao Hui looked at Zhao Ji with a strange expression, and then at Li Tian. Thieves feeling.

Although Zhao Ji seemed to have a bigger future than he had imagined, the fact that it involved rebellion and a war really frightened ordinary people like Zhao Hui who just wanted to live in peace.

Although Zhao Ji was also afraid of war, he was more worried about Yan Yunkai's safety, and his mood was distracted. For a while, he couldn't think of being afraid, let alone caring about what Zhao Hui was thinking.

The author has something to say:

In ancient times, sponsoring relatives was the norm. Don't think that the protagonist is too generous, or is being taken advantage of. He gives very little.
