Before the county magistrate said the rest, Song Yutong immediately understood.
The county magistrate wanted to use this method to protect the restaurant when there was no one in their family to take charge. Cheng Hanyan promoted them after he was promoted.
It seems that the county magistrate is very eager to be promoted.
"When you came to our house, you knew about the grudge between us and Mr. Ji. If you choose to cooperate with us, you are offending the prince. You can clearly tell which is more serious."
Song Yutong put aside the fact that Cheng Hanyan was about to go to the military camp, and planned to ask about the specific situation when he came back.
The two most important people to deal with right now are the master and the county magistrate.
If these two clingy people are always in the kitchen, they will not only hinder her from doing things well.
Even if you want to redeem the required ingredients from the system mall, it is not so convenient to take out the meals cooked yesterday from the system space.
The county magistrate and Qi Qi both looked at each other, and both saw confusion in each other's eyes.
Although the two of them had done a lot of things to help Mr. Ji, they were still kicked to pieces in the end.
Since that man was a prince, they couldn't say anything. Even if they were wronged, they would swallow it themselves.
In the end, the county magistrate made the decision neatly.
"We didn't get anything from the second prince. We helped him a lot, but we didn't see him thinking highly of us. Otherwise, I wouldn't have to please Hu Qing in order to get promoted."
There was a ruthlessness on the face of the county magistrate, which made Song Yutong a little surprised.
After all, no matter what he does, the county magistrate always likes to be quarrelsome, which makes people think he is much weak.
Now it seems that the real ruthless person is not Master.
She was not surprised that the master made such a decision.
But what the county magistrate did was surprising.
Song Yutong nodded to express his understanding, and did not ask the county magistrate why he suddenly wanted to be promoted so urgently.
On weekdays, the county magistrate seems to be busy with the official position in front of him. He is not anxious and has no dissatisfaction.
Of course, it is also possible that you have been stimulated by something and suddenly want to be powerful and want to climb up, which is also normal.
Just: "If I remember correctly, County Grand Master, hasn't your daughter already become a concubine in the imperial city? If you want to be promoted and let your daughter be in the emperor's ears, it's just a matter of a word."
"Why do you go to such trouble to find someone?" This is what Song Yutong wants to know most.
Of course, the most important thing is to cooperate with the county magistrate now. The two of them are just grasshoppers on the same rope, and it is better to know the basics.
She often watched palace fighting dramas, and the concubines and concubines in the palace were also divided into cliques.
If these concubines are on the wrong team, choose the wrong prince they can rely on, and become the opposite of them, this cooperation will not be stable.
If this is the case, it would be better not to cooperate in the first place.
It's okay not to mention this matter, but when I mention this matter, the county magistrate has an old blood clot in his heart, and the out of breath person seems to be about to faint from anger.
Song Yutong couldn't stand it and poured a bowl of water to the county magistrate to calm him down first.
Then he opened his mouth to explain: "It's not that I want to inquire about the county magistrate, but since we want to work together, we should know the details. Now that the emperor is old, the princes below him have their own ideas and are fighting for power and profit, so they are bound to win over the concubines in the harem."
"If your noble concubine is on the wrong team, we may be implicated if we cooperate with you."
Song Yutong acted in a wise and protective manner, and the county magistrate also understood the matter and still wanted to talk about it.
"No, I want to be promoted just to find out who harmed her. I don't know what happened in the palace, but these individuals harmed her for their own interests."
After the county magistrate finished speaking, tears suddenly flowed down his face.
"Because I am a humble person and a small county magistrate, I cannot bring any help to her in the palace. Suddenly, there was news that she was thrown into the cold palace, and she died not long after."
"I want to send someone to inquire, but there is no way now. I just want to find out what happened here and who harmed her."
After the county magistrate spoke, Song Yutong gradually lowered his eyes.
Although the county magistrate is not a good official because of his mediocre ability, as a father, he treats the imperial concubine well.
It's just that he was too doting on his own children, otherwise Li Hao wouldn't be in jail.
"In this case, you go back today. I need to discuss this matter with my husband first. I will give you an answer after the fifth day of the lunar month."
Song Yutong thought for a while before speaking.
"Okay, then the two of us will go back and wait for news. We will visit you after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year."
The county magistrate and the master got the right word, and they left Qianweiju.
Now they have something to ask for, and they really shouldn't be so pretentious about asking for help.
What's more, Mrs. Cheng has always had a soft-spoken temperament.
After the master and the county magistrate left, Song Yutong's interest in cooking became less intense.
I felt an inexplicable irritation in my heart. Looking at the unfinished dishes in front of me, I found the spiritual spring water and drank half a bottle of it for myself.
The irritability in my heart also dissipated a lot. I picked up the kitchen knife again, cut all the vegetables to be prepared, and washed them.
After Song Yutong had prepared four dishes, Cheng Hanyan hurried back from outside with two pieces of red paper in his hand.
It looked like it had come all the way, and he had a bright smile on his face when he came in.
The moment Song Yutong saw his smiling face, it seemed that all her previous worries had disappeared.
Cheng Hanyan helped light the fire while cutting paper. Song Yutong looked up at him several times, but in the end he hesitated to speak.
The few times it happened, Cheng Hanyan didn't notice anything, but the more times it happened, Cheng Hanyan couldn't pretend to be stupid even if he wanted to.
"Madam, do you have anything to ask me?"
Cheng Hanyan took the initiative to bring up the conversation. Song Yutong sighed slightly and took advantage of the free time to move a small stool and sit down in front of Cheng Hanyan.
"The county magistrate and the master came here just now. It is said that the imperial court has issued a decree and the military camp you are going to is about to go into battle."
Cheng Hanyan heard what he didn't understand.
"You already know. I plan to tell you after tomorrow. I'm afraid if I tell you earlier, you will be sad and you won't be able to have a good New Year."
He spoke very frankly.
After Song Yutong knew what he was thinking, she took the initiative to reach out and hug him.
"But if you didn't tell me in advance, I wouldn't have had the chance to prepare anything more for you."
Song Yutong had already made plans to see if he could use more points to exchange for a body armor with the system. It didn't take much, as long as he had one.
I have been negotiating with the system for the past two days, and I thought I still had two months to spare.
