I am the county magistrate in Liaozhai

This is a bit strange. If the younger brother hadn't gone to Tangxi, Fu Chengshu would never have guessed too much. After all, the stolen goods were found from the small courtyard where Ji Sheng lived temporarily, and a servant of the Zhu family saw Ji Sheng's face that night. , such ironclad evidence, but Ji Sheng firmly denied it, which shows something strange.

So on a holiday, Fu Chengshu asked the female ghost, Miss Nie, to send a letter to Tangxi.

But Cheng Jin was not in Tangxi. It was always raining in Tangxi recently, so he went to Wanfu Temple in Tianshui, southern Anhui, to argue with two young monks.

"Hey, I worked so hard to make this. Doesn't Master Hongfa really want to try it?"

"Amitabha, monks and nuns do not eat food that comes at you."

Zhou Jia didn't understand. He lowered his head and took a big mouthful of fried rice noodles, squinting his eyes happily: "Senior brother, eat! It's delicious!"

Hongfa: ...you little traitor.

Cheng Jin was overjoyed, and pushed the food box in his hand: "Come on, I won't poison you."

Pushed like this, the scent from the food box wafted out, and Hongfa touched the empty Wu Zang Temple, and he didn't refuse again: "This is what you insist on giving to the little monk."

"Yes, yes, this is dedicated to the little master Hongfa."

Zhou Jia heard the senior's name, raised his head with round eyes, "Senior brother, this is delicious too!" As he spoke, he picked up a piece of fried tofu with his chopsticks tremblingly.

Just as Hongfa hurried to pick him up, he coaxed him a few more words before starting to eat with red ears.

But seeing this man waving his folding fan frivolously, Hongfa couldn't hold back: "Benefactor Cheng, aren't you an official? Why are you so idle?"

Cheng Jin put away the folding fan, and said with a red smile, "Why, isn't the little master welcome? The official is not a spinning top, how can he be busy with official duties every day~"

Hongfa: ... the little monk listens to your nonsense.jpg.

However, Zhou Jia couldn't feel the turbulent undercurrent between the senior brother and the big brother, so he still ate deliciously.He was a child at heart, and soon after eating, he fell into food sleepiness, and soon went to take a nap.

On the other hand, Hongfa still stretched his sleepiness and asked people vigilantly: "Are you... are you here to take away the younger brother?" He wanted to ask this question a long time ago, but he never asked.

The afternoon sun was very bright, and Cheng Jin was inevitably a little sleepy. He yawned before lazily saying, "Your master asked me this question before."

Hongfa couldn't help but clenched the hem of his clothes.

"Don't be so nervous. If I really want to take him away, even your master can't stop me." He is just a tool man, and Zhou Jia has to make the decision, or Zhou Lin will come forward to recognize him, but it took so long After it passed, Zhou Lin was still in the underworld, so he was not in a hurry to draw a conclusion.

It's just that Qingheng's words made him pay special attention that day, so he ran more frequently.

"Junior brother, is he really the son of your old friend?"

Cheng Jin nodded.

"Since that's the case, why did you come instead of his father?"

Cheng Jin didn't answer the question directly: "You already guessed it in your heart, didn't you?"

After Hongfa listened to it, he was even more puzzled: "Then why did you throw junior brother away again! Do you know that junior brother was thrown into the mountains by someone, if it wasn't for the young monk and master passing right by, junior brother would have died."

But now he came to his door, he would never let anyone take away his junior brother, even if he gave him something delicious.

Wow, this little monk is not very old, and he is actually testing him. Cheng Jin knocked on the folding fan, and couldn't help but lean closer and said, "Young master wants to know something, you might as well just say it, you are Jia'er's senior brother, I will know everything Word."

"Carl?"

Cheng Jin tapped the table with a folding fan, and dipped his fingers in water to write the word Zhou Jia: "My old friend, surnamed Zhou, would you mind listening to a story, Master?"

He said he knew everything, but about Zhou Lin's going to be a ghost messenger after his death, Cheng still kept it a secret.

"Of course, this story, please tell the little master to Master Abbot."

After Cheng Jin finished telling the story to others, he waved his folding fan and left, leaving Hongfa alone in the back mountain. There was nothing he could do. For the young monk who had never been down the mountain, the story still contained too much information.

Cheng Jin left the mountain gate, but he didn't return to Tangxi immediately, instead he went down the mountain and entered Tianshui Town.

The case of Mrs. Li's son-in-law had already been judged, and the reputation of the Lin family had plummeted because of it. After all, the "Zhou family's extinct family" was so ugly that other people didn't want to associate with it, let alone do business. For several days, even the brilliance on the bright side could not be maintained.

I believe that within a few days, the Lin family will become ordinary ordinary people, and even because they were once rich, life may be much more difficult than ordinary people.

As Cheng Jin walked, he came to the shop where he had breakfast with Hei Lulu.

"Since you left the temple, why don't you go back?"

"Hey, Master? Why are you here? Are you looking for me for dinner?" Cheng Jin said happily.

Hei Shan shook the letter in his hand and handed it over: "Your senior brother's letter, I'm afraid there is something urgent, so I sent it with you."

"My senior brother? Could it be that the teacher decided to go south? No, I dare not tear it down." Cheng County magistrate was too scared to accept the letter, as if nothing happened if I didn't read it.

Montenegro: ...you cut Liyong with vigor.

"Let's go, I'm hungry, I'll read the letter after eating, I'm going to be a dead ghost no matter what!"

Hei Shan really couldn't understand Cheng Yi'an's logic, even a mortal old man doesn't know any wonderful spells, how could Cheng Yi'an be so afraid? !

"Master, you don't understand, teacher, it hurts him to beat someone!"

Montenegro: ... Can I hurt you?

"Can you believe it, the teacher is a ruthless person who dares to attack even my senior brother!" Just thinking about the picture, Cheng Jin feels that the teacher is worthy of being a person who does great things.

"...Can't you stop your mouth after eating?"

"It can be blocked, but it is not enough."

After eating for half an hour, Cheng Jin reluctantly put down his chopsticks, and silently took the letter from Hei Lulu's hand.

"Forget it, early death and early death, if so, I will go back and beat the Jinhua cat to vent my anger!"

Pan Maomao sneezed fiercely: Meow meow?

But fortunately, it is really difficult to make a full dead ghost, so Cheng Jin happily ordered the potstickers that come with the pot.

"Looking at you, it seems that your teacher won't go south for a while." Hei Shan guessed.

Cheng Jin pursed his lips, nodded and said, "That's right, not only will he not go south, but the teacher may be very worried recently."

"Block your mind?"

"Something went wrong with the imperial examination."

"Cheating?"

Cheng Jin shook his head: "Well, to be precise, it should be... the champion Lang De is not worthy, and scholars have reported it?" Afterwards, Cheng Jin briefly explained the matter.

"Since it's about Zhuangyuan Lang, why are the scholars in Beijing so excited?" Heishan was really puzzled, when did ordinary people become so eager for justice?

"Master, this is what you don't know. This year is Enke. If you can make the list, the probability of being used is much higher than in previous years. After all, the new emperor is coming, and you have to train a new team. Point your head and drill in, you can't be sure that you will be caught by some nobleman in the process, wouldn't it be a one-step success!" Cheng Jin saw that the pot stickers were not ready yet, and continued, "If Zhuangyuanlang is really convicted of this crime, then his one The position of Jia is gone, and the new emperor did not have the number one in the imperial examination for the first time, do you think this is plausible? Everyone in the early days has selfishness."

The takeaway is still a bit fishy in troubled waters, no wonder the brother asked him if there was anything tricky about it.

"Let's go, let's go together and see if this champion man has been tampered with." Cheng Jin took the pot stickers packed by the store, and dragged Yao to the capital.

When they arrived at the senior brother's house, the pot stickers in his hand were still hot.

"Senior brother, come and eat while it's hot. You must have never eaten the special snacks in southern Anhui."

Fu Chengshu: ... No wonder it came so slowly.

"How is Jiaer?"

"It's pretty good. I ate well and slept well. It's just that I have been a vegetarian since I was a child, and my stature is a little thinner."

Fu Chengshu asked a few more questions, and after glancing at Heishan standing there, he went straight to the topic: "Yi'an, the teacher is also among the people who nominated Ji Changyu as the number one scholar."

"What?" Cheng Jin really didn't know this level, "Didn't the teacher only ask a few exam questions?"

Fu Chengshu sighed: "In order to praise me, Your Majesty specially invited the teacher to enter the palace to participate in the ranking during the palace examination, but unexpectedly, it was self-defeating. This Ji Changyu is not upright, and now the government and the public are talking about it." There are even rumors alluding to it. The new emperor is not kind.

It is a huge scandal that Enke's champion is so unbearable.

Cheng Jin couldn't sit still right away: "No, I have to go see this Changji Ji immediately." But after finishing speaking, he didn't get up immediately, and pressed his temper again, asking about the details of the case.

Only in this way can he understand why Shuntian Fu Yin has not been sentenced for such a simple theft case.

Firstly, Ji Sheng refused to admit it, and even said that the people he knew at the place where he temporarily lived knew that the stolen goods were probably planted by others. He didn't look like a heart-wrenching person like Mr. Wushu, how could he be judged at a glance, and he said that he had no reason to steal. At that time, he was too late to prepare for the exam, and it was obvious that someone was jealous of him and framed him.

Sure enough, the one who can be the number one scholar, mad to mad, his brain is still very fast.

Secondly, there is also the meaning of confrontation between the two forces in the DPRK and China. After all, a number one scholar who has been framed by others is much better than one with a bad reputation.When Cheng Jinguang thought about it, he became bald for Yin of Shuntian Prefecture.

It is too difficult to be a Beijing official. If this is a wrong judgment, not only will the emperor not like it, but he may be taken away because of an unjust, false or wrong case. It is no wonder that the adults who are the governor of Shuntian Fu grow old faster than ordinary people every year.

Later, with the help of Hei Lulu, Cheng Jin sneaked into the cell of the Shuntian government office, and successfully met the new champion Ji Changyu.

But before him, there were already other uninvited guests in front of him.

Cheng Jin couldn't help poking Heilulu, and said silently: Who is this, who looks like a monster?

Hei Shan was taken aback, Qian Cheng Yi'an couldn't distinguish ghosts at all, but now he has become so keen?

"This is a fox demon."

Fox demon?Could it be that the senior brother really guessed it, is it really evil?But what kind of fox is this, dare to play tricks on the head of Xinke Zhuangyuan Lang, Li Yong wouldn't dare to be so bold, right?Or is this fox here to rescue the champion of Xinke?
