The weather has been extremely wet and cold for several days.
The yamen courtroom is elevated and drafty, so it is particularly cold.
Therefore, several more carbon basins were prepared. Chen Sijing and others sat around the bookcase and meticulously reviewed the accounts.
Cong Mingzhang took people to visit various places, but for several days he could not find anything wrong with Zheng Wuji.
Chen Sijing looked at the accounts for a long time, and his eyes were a little tired.
Knowing that Xu Chunjun and Zheng Wuji were not here, I went to sit on the patio in the backyard.
Zi Ling brought tea over and said to Chen Sijing, "Master Chen, drink tea."
Chen Sijing hurriedly thanked him and took the tea with both hands.
Although Zi Ling is a servant, she is also Xu Chunjun's personal maid.
Chen Sijing never neglected her.
Zi Ling and Chen Sijing are also old friends. They got to know Chen Sijing not long after they came to Beijing.
It was before I met Zheng Wuji.
Moreover, Zi Ling knew Chen Sijing's character. At the beginning, he still regretted that the girl could not marry him.
Now, although Chen Sijing was ordered to investigate Zheng Wuji, Zi Ling believed that he would act impartially and would never involve any personal grudges.
"Mr. Zheng and his wife have been out frequently these days. What are they doing?" Chen Sijing didn't mean to pry, he just wanted to have a few words with Ziling.
"You adults don't know. There has always been a bad habit in Chenzhou. Every family is unwilling to raise more children, so many babies are drowned or smothered to death by their parents as soon as they are born." Zi Ling said truthfully, "We girls know
After hearing this incident, I felt so unbearable.
Therefore, I discussed with the adults how to get rid of this bad habit. In summary, although this matter violates the law, firstly, the people will not punish the officials, and secondly, the law will not punish the public.
I thought that we should focus on education, and exempt those families who have more children from household chores for a year, and provide them with food and clothing.
Not only that, we girls also have to go to these people's homes to persuade them, to move them emotionally and to reason with them.
I just hope to save one more life and reduce the number of killings."
"So that's it! This is really a good deed of immeasurable merit!" Chen Sijing couldn't help but sigh after hearing this. He had known that Xu Chunjun was not a common man.
Now that I heard that she performed this kind deed, I admire her even more.
"Who says it's not? Save one life and build a seven-level pagoda. Our girl saved hundreds of lives." The person Zi Ling admires the most is Xu Chunjun.
It is said that a man can bend and stretch, but Zi Ling saw in Xu Chunjun what it means to be truly bendable and stretchable.
Recall that when the Xu family fell, they struggled to survive under the Wei family.
Xu Chunjun is cautious, silent and humble.
At that time, the Wei family and several of her children believed that Xu Chunjun was just an honest and obedient concubine.
But whenever the family is in crisis, Xu Chunjun will step forward again, regardless of gains and losses.
After marrying Zheng Wuji, she took on the responsibility of the housekeeper, managed by doing nothing, and dug out Zheng Long and Zheng Dahu, a pair of worms.
He also kept the Zheng family in good order.
Now, as the wife of the magistrate, she can do more and do more, and she does not shy away from it, and she is dedicated to benefiting the people.
"Ziling, now that you have come to Chenzhou, do you miss the capital?" Chen Sijing asked, looking at a wisp of flying clouds on the horizon.
"Master Chen has not returned to Beijing for many years." Zi Ling couldn't help but sigh, "It's a lie to say that I don't want to.
But I have been serving the girl since I was a child, and I follow her wherever she goes, so I can be considered happy-go-lucky."
Chen Sijing finished the tea in his cup and went back to check the accounts.
Zi Ling looked at his back and sighed.
I hope Chen Sijing can also find a good marriage as soon as possible.
Cong Mingzhang came back in the second half of the day. His horse was frightened on the way and ran into the mud, making him dirty as well.
So I have to take a shower as soon as I come back.
After he took a hot bath and put on clean clothes, Chen Sijing came over to talk to him.
"Did you gain something from this day, sir?" Chen Sijing asked.
"It's the same as the past few days." Cong Mingzhang sat down and said, "Even if there are occasional small mistakes, they are also the faults of his subordinates. He cannot be blamed."
Zheng Wuji has only been in office for a short period of time and has done a lot of good things, but the bad things are really hard to detect.
"By the way, Mr. Chen, how's your accounting going?" Cong Mingzhang asked Chen Sijing.
"We have checked two-thirds of the accounts so far, and they are all correct." Chen Sijing and the others brought special people from the capital to check the accounts. These people are familiar with the accounts and can find any mistakes immediately.
Although Cong Mingzhang was from the Queen, he could not fabricate charges out of thin air, not to mention that Chen Sijing was by his side.
He also knew in his heart that Zheng Wuji would probably not be able to find any excuse this time, but even if it was a routine matter, he had to finish what he had to do meticulously.
After another half a month, Cong Mingzhang and others finally completed the inspection.
Return all documents to Zheng Wuji.
"Sir Zheng, we have verified in many ways over the past few days that there was no corruption or malpractice during your tenure. Those people made false accusations." Cong Mingzhang said, "We will truthfully report the truth to Your Majesty after we return to Beijing."
"Thank you for your hard work, sir. I am afraid." Zheng Wuji thanked him hurriedly.
"Master Zheng, you love the people like a son and govern well. I will tell you the truth when I go back." Chen Sijing is a gentleman. Everything Zheng Wuji did in Chenzhou was indeed for the benefit of the people.
Such a good official should be rewarded.
"Master Chen, this is too much of a reward, and I really don't deserve it." Zheng Wuji was very humble, "You have worked really hard these days, and now that it's over, it's time to relax.
If you don’t mind it, I’ll be my host and spend a few days in Chenzhou.”
"It's not too long since we arrived. Now that the inspection is completed, we should return to Beijing immediately and resume our duties without delay." Cong Mingzhang said, "We understand Mr. Zheng's kindness. If there is another opportunity in the future, we will definitely come here again.
Nagging."
"Even if I can't stay for a long time, I still want to show off my feelings by showing off my face." Zheng Wuji said with a smile, "Isn't this too much?"
"Master Zheng, you must not spend money, otherwise it will be shameful." Cong Mingzhang did not refuse this time.
As expected, Zheng Wuji didn't prepare anything extravagant, but it was just local flavor, free of charge.
After the banquet, these people set off back to Beijing to resume their duties.
Zheng Wuji personally sent them to the boat and watched them go away before returning.
At this time, Yao Zheng was having a headache in the Huaiyang Palace.
The tea on the table had gone cold, but he didn't drink a sip. He just stared at the remaining pieces of the game in a daze.
Although his father said that those who went to complain had become useless and should be abandoned when it was time to give up, he always felt that doing so was too ruthless.
He did not dare to show it in front of the King of Huaiyang, because what his father hated most was his indecisiveness and womanly kindness.
