"We are all girls. If you are a palace guard, there will inevitably be some inconvenience. Sirs, please don't dislike the Zajia family for taking this trip." Bai Shi walked up and said with a smile.
"Don't dare. Thank you for your work, Eunuch Bai." Zhang Xuan took a step forward and smiled.
Eunuch Bai smiled and took the purse Zhang Xuan handed over, shouting: "Peony."
After the sound, a dozen girls came out of the carriage in a hurry. They were all wearing raincoats. The first two were girls from the palace, and the ones behind were naturally from good families.
When everyone looked at it, Bai Shi weighed his purse. It was quite a lot. There should be a full twenty taels. These people from the countryside were quite generous...
Although Zhang Xuan is greedy for money, it doesn't mean he doesn't know the principles of life.
Otherwise, how could he have been able to thrive in the yamen all these years after running around?
It's just that Ji Xuan takes the big role and he plays the small role. However, Ji Xuan may not be able to do these things.
The sound of kisses passed by. Bai Shi and Tong Ruoqi also left, and everyone sat in the signing room again.
"It's okay, it's okay. Just come back."
Xue Chen comforted the woman in his arms and spoke softly.
"What kind of upbringing? Pear blossoms rush into other people's arms like rain, but they don't know how to be reserved."
Fang Wu was originally going to explain his choice. But as soon as he opened his mouth, he heard a curse from the Xue family.
"Mom, what are you doing?" Xue Chen blocked the woman's ears and turned around to ask.
The member of the Xue family bared his teeth and said, "Why, you turned your elbows out before you even passed the door? Do you know that I am your mother?"
"Ahem, the government has given you two choices..." Ji Xuan coughed and said.
In a few sentences he mentioned the sentence of exile and joining the army.
"Exile." Xue Chen said lightly. He was very determined. Didn't he do so much just to marry Zhang Li, a girl from the Zhang family?
Although it may be easier to live in the army, but... the risks of joining the army are too great.
"Impossible, I don't agree. How can there be a good future after cultivating the land for a lifetime?" Unexpectedly, before the Xue family said anything, the Zhang family directly objected.
"Yes, why should we be exiled when we can obviously join the army and rise again?" The Xue family members also resisted.
Fang Wu felt a headache after hearing this. He turned to look at Ji Xuan and said, "Master, there are still certain doubts about this case."
"Indeed, for example, we haven't found out who started the fire on the day you got married, and how the Zhang family and the Xue family killed the horse and took it to a mass grave because they didn't have the same opinions.
"Ji Xuan also nodded.
yes.
Xue Chen's confession included carts provided by his family and cattle provided by the Zhang family. They sent the horse's body to the mass grave with Su San and sold the cattle. The Xue family gave the money to the Zhang family and then sent it to the Zhang family.
Going to Su's house.
However, if the Xue family didn't like the Zhang family girl, how could they agree to take the risk?
"With the army, I might not be able to marry Sister Li. We have done so much, aren't we just for Sister Li's happiness?"
Xue Chen said directly and decisively.
"Can……"
After a quarrel, the adults of the two families still couldn't resist their children and decided to accept exile.
Ji Xuan and Fang Wu handed the two families over to the Yamen and asked them to be transferred out.
The case is closed.
The doubts were also eliminated. In fact, Xue's father handed over the money for selling the cattle to the Zhang family and then gave it to the Su family. This was revealed by Xue's father later.
Xue Chen made a mistake in his panic, so he finally made it clear.
However, no one has been found who started the fire at another place in Fang Wu's house.
Ji Xuan and Fang Wu also asked, and Fang Wu asked him to speak to the painter, but they found nothing suspicious.
"Master, let's think about it again, or interview the villagers, and come back," Fang Wu said.
Ji Xuan nodded and agreed...
The days passed quickly, and I don’t know how everyone was feeling. But Ji Xuan’s situation was not so good. That is, on the fourth day after sending the Xue family and others away,
Ji Xuan received an official document from the state government office.
It is an order of adjustment and rebuke,
He reprimanded Bai An for dereliction of duty, as well as for his lax control of his subordinates and his inability to restrain and teach his subordinate officials.
He dismissed Bai An as a student and was taught by Ye Zhuqing, the official who was about to take office, and then took office again.
As for the transfer order, Ji Xuan was transferred to Baiwei County in Shanyin Prefecture. This county is very poor. Because the terrain is remote and it is in a big mountain, it is difficult to contact people from outside.
Moreover, such a place is not suitable for planting, so the people here have difficulty eating and drinking.
Ji Xuan also knew that there was nothing that could be done about it. He did not replace the entire yamen, which was already due to the Shangguan's tolerance.
Therefore, he never said anything until the day of reporting was getting closer.
He stopped Zhang Xuan behind the Bazi Hutong and handed him the transfer and rebuke orders together.
"I received this a long time ago, why didn't you tell me?"
Zhang Xuan asked, put the things back into Ji Xuan's hands, and was about to go to the back office. He wanted to ask Tan Sihan if he could help.
It is clearly said that if the case is resolved, there will be no worries about the official path. This is not worry-free.
Baiwei County is one of the poorest counties in Daman. The environment is so bad that there are no officials willing to work there.
"Stop, it's been a long time, there's no point in saying anything." Ji Xuan pulled Zhang Xuan back and said seriously.
"It's no use, it's no use. Why are you looking for me? I'm just as leisurely as you are." Zhang Xuan got angry when he heard that.
I completely forgot that the person opposite him was Ji Xuan.
"Someone must take responsibility for this matter. In any case, our yamen didn't take it seriously, and that's why the accident happened. Youyouxian! If you are Youxian, just listen to me."
Ji Xuanda retorted, raising her arm to block Zhang Xuan's path.
"...Say." Zhang Xuan was stunned by what he said. It took him a long time to find his voice and looked at Ji Xuan cautiously.
"I don't know what kind of person the new Shangguan Ye Zhuqing is. You have to respect him."
Seeing that Zhang Xuan had regained his sense, Ji Xuan said little by little: "Also, you have to protect those two."
Ye Zhuqing and the others have never heard of this. The title in the official document is that Ye Qizun is from the fifth rank. They don't know where he was transferred from. In short, they have never heard of it.
Zhang Xuan's is from the seventh grade, but Ji Xuan's from the sixth grade has not been moved. It is considered a level upgrade. But in a place like that, doesn't it count as a downgrade?
"I……"
"I will tell them about my departure after I leave." Ji Xuan interrupted Zhang Xuan and continued.
Seeing Zhang Xuan nodding, he left.
Zhang Xuan bent down to pick up the transfer orders and rebuke orders that fell on the ground, avoided Ji Xuan's looking back, and went to the back office.
