Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials recommended Qian Zhong as the county magistrate of Qiongzhou in the early court. Unless Qian Zhong died, this matter could not be changed.

As soon as Li An went to court, he wanted someone to secretly contact Qian Zhong, but he was one step too late. Before the morning court was over, Qian Zhong reported to the Ministry of Officials, took his appointment papers, and took his elder brother Qian Bo out of the city. He went to Qiongzhou, and his family was brought to Qiongzhou by his younger brother Qian Ji later.

Li An couldn't help but stamped his feet, feeling that as long as things were related to Gu Jingyun, his luck would always be unlucky.

Fortunately, although Qian Zhong is not one of his people, he is not one of the four princes either.

Wei Yingjie also comforted him, "Your Highness, I'm afraid the fourth prince hasn't noticed Qiongzhou, the Qin family is still safe now."

"But once Gu Jingyun returns to Beijing, he will definitely become the focus of the capital, and the Qin family will also be pushed to the forefront. We have to prepare early."

Peng Yu who was on the side pouted and said, "Your Highness is too worried. With Gu Jingyun's scheming, he would not have considered it? I'm afraid he was already prepared."

The prince's heart moved, he stroked his chin and said, "This time the county magistrate of Qiongzhou made the decision too quickly..."

Wei Yingjie stared, and said hesitantly: "He's just a scholar now, he shouldn't be able to do this..."

How could he meddle in the appointment of officials?

Peng Yu also said: "Your Highness thinks highly of him."

Li An glared at him, "You were the one who said he was smart, and you were the one who said he was not capable. What do you think?"

Peng Yu took a deep breath in his heart, he just felt that Gu Jingyun occupied too much of his grandson's mind, and he was just a young scholar, so if he wins the exam, he will be able to pay it back?

"Have you told your father about Gu Jingyun?"

Peng Yu shook his head, "Didn't Your Highness say that you want to keep it secret for now?"

Li An nodded, "No one is allowed to expose Gu Jingyun before he comes to Beijing."

Although Peng Yu didn't like Gu Jingyun, and was even jealous of him, he knew the seriousness.

He and his grandson are of the same mind, but his father...

Peng Yu scratched his head, and finally decided not to say anything, not to get involved in the struggle between them.

At this time, Qian Zhong and Qian Bo, who had hired a carriage, had just passed Baoding.

They decided to take the waterway, which would be faster and safer.

It wasn't until he got on the boat and lived in the cabin that Qian Zhong's brain, which had been tense all day and night, relaxed slightly.

He is thirty-five years old, but he looks close to forty. His temple hair is slightly white and his forehead is tightly lined. It can be seen that he is usually serious and unsmiling.

On the other hand, Qian Bo looked older than him, with his back slightly arched, and a pair of old bark-like hands quickly rubbing the rope.

They came out in a hurry, and they only had time to pack two bags and a change of clothes. They didn't even have a pair of shoes. He planned to rub two more pairs of straw sandals on the boat and change the cloth shoes on his feet. Qiongzhou will wear it again.

That way it won't be too timid.

Sitting at the side, Qian Zhong folded the letters in the bundle and put them in his bosom. Seeing that his elder brother kept his hands on, he persuaded him: "It's getting late, elder brother, let's do it tomorrow, we will stay on the ship for many days."

Qian Bo raised his head and smiled, and said in a low voice, "I've made a lot of weaves, and when the time comes, I'll sell them ashore and earn some money."

Qian Zhong sighed, and picked up the straw rope on the boat to help rub it, "I'm the one who got you bothered."

Uncle Qian shook his head, "How can you say that? Could it be that you just watched him bully the folks and our little sister? You are an official, and it is your responsibility to plead for the people. We are in this situation because the fourth prince and the Wu family bullied others Too much, if you blame yourself for their mistakes, wouldn't you make your enemies happy?"

Qian Zhong was even more ashamed.

The eldest brother is like a father, especially for Qian Zhonglai. His parents have passed away long ago, and it was his elder brother who supported him all the way to study the imperial examinations. He not only gave him the foundation of his life, but also taught him the principles of life.

As far as he is concerned, the elder brother's wisdom is the best in the world, and he will never learn it all in his life.

Qian Zhong touched the letter on his chest and said in a low voice, "Brother, maybe we can avenge the third brother."

Qian Bo's eye circles were reddish, he hesitated to speak.

The Wu family and the Qian family have a sworn feud.

For the Wu family, it was an insult for them to be sued by a group of untouchables, not to mention that Wu Zhi lost his official position because of this, so he wished to kill the entire Qian family.

But for the Qian family, their lives are in the hands of the Wu family, and this hatred is irreconcilable.

Otherwise, Uncle Qian would have brought Qian Zhong back to his hometown, so why bother to stay in the capital for a job?

After all, Yangzhou is their hometown, where they have land and land, Qian Zhong has a good reputation, even if he is not an official, he can live a good life as a squire.

But Qian Zhong was not reconciled, and he was not reconciled either. Their third brother died in that conflict, and their younger sister was sent home because of that conflict. How could he swallow this breath?

Wu Zhi loves money and indulges his subordinates to prostitutes, but it is not worth Qian Zhong's death to go to Beijing to sue the imperial court. He still has many tactful methods to please the common people.

The reason why he is so fierce is because Wu Zhi loves sex more than money, especially his wife. Sixteen families are torn apart because of him. What makes Qian Zhong even more sad is that those young women who were robbed didn't commit suicide in the county magistrate's mansion. Even if they went home and were divorced, it was obviously not their fault, but they bore the greatest malice in the world, and there were only three who could withstand the pressure and survive.

One of them is his sister!

But so what if he didn't die, the third brother was beaten to death because of the people who blocked Wu Zhi, the younger sister has always been worried about it, if she didn't want to take care of the child left by the third brother, she would have died long ago.

Every time he thinks about it, Qian Bo's heart feels like a knife is piercing his heart, but the Wu family is too powerful and backed by the four princes, so he can only sue him for taking the people's land by force.

They have always had evidence in their hands that Wu Zhiqiang robbed civilian women and killed ordinary people, but they did not show it, so that one day these evidences will actually allow Wu Zhi to serve his sentence, not just dismissed from office.

The second brother said that all officials have privileges, and the privileges of the Wu family who rely on the prince's back are even greater. Unless they are hugely corrupt, kill people of the same status, or rebel, it will be too difficult to make the other party pay for his life.

Their evidence has to be saved on a knife edge.

Qian Bo stretched out his hand to pat Qian Zhong, and asked in a low voice, "Your benefactor asked us to go to Qiongzhou, but what is your order?"

Qian Zhong shook his head, "No, his letter only asked me to be the county magistrate of Qiongzhou, and not to allow outside forces to intervene in Qiongzhou, especially the forces of the Fourth Prince..."

Qian Zhong lowered his voice and said, "Qiongzhou is poor in supplies. The only special thing is the criminals in the exile. There are not only bandits and murderers, but also various criminal officials. Maybe there are people who are used by benefactors."

Chamber frowned slightly, "How can a criminal be a good person? He won't let you do bad things, will he?"

Although Qian Bo wanted revenge, he didn't want to do bad things, which was not in keeping with his character.

Qian Zhong smiled and said: "Don't worry, elder brother, benefactor said that he knows my character and will not let me do illegal and moral things." Corrupt officials are in power, and those who were exiled to Qiongzhou naturally have those who were wronged."

Only then did Chamber feel relieved.

This is the first position that Qian Zhong got in two years. Although the situation is bad, the two are still full of hope and look forward to Qiongzhou.

But when they actually landed in Qiongzhou, the two couldn't help being dumbfounded.

Although Qiongzhou Mansion is called a mansion, it is actually a county system. As a county, its land area and total population can be said to be very considerable. At least Qian Zhong has never heard of any county with an area comparable to Qiongzhou.

Adding in the total population, he felt that it didn't matter how poor Qiongzhou was, but when he climbed to the coast of Qiongzhou and looked at the dusty, potholed paths and civilians in short coats, Qian Zhong felt a little chilled.

When he entered the city and saw a county town with only two streets, Qian Bo couldn't help being speechless, "This Qiongzhou is too poor, it can't compare to a small town in our Yangzhou."

Yangzhou is rich and prosperous, and every town is richer than Qiongzhou County.

Qian Zhong was disappointed for a moment, and then he was shocked and said: "Brother, in this way I can use my skills and make Qiongzhou rich. These are all merits."

But Qiongzhou is just a deserted island. Seeing that his younger brother is ambitious, Qian Bo still didn't attack him, but tightened his shoulders and said, "Let's go, let's go to the county government."

Neither the county lieutenant nor the head secretary expected the new county magistrate to come so soon. When they saw Qian Zhong standing in the county office in linen clothes, they almost thought it was a lie.

But who dares to lie to the Yamen?

The two checked the county magistrate's paperwork, and hurriedly smiled and led them to the back of the county office.

The county magistrate, county lieutenant, and master book can all live behind the county office.

In the back is a house with two entrances on the left and one entrance and three entrances in the middle. According to the regulations, the two entrances on the left and right are lived by the county lieutenant and the head book with their families, and the three entrances in the middle belong to the county magistrate.

Tan Qian was domineering, he hinted that the magistrate had moved away after he arrived, because he felt that he would die as the county magistrate of Qiongzhou, so he built the county magistrate's mansion as magnificently as his own private house.

This directly made it cheaper for the county lieutenant and master book who moved in later. They didn't dare to live in the third room in the middle, but still lived in the two rooms on the left and right.

But now that the new county magistrate is here, I don't know if they can still live.

Both the county lieutenant and the head secretary quietly took aim at Qian Zhong. The new county magistrate was as poor as Tan Qian back then, no, he was even poorer than Tan Qian. He wouldn't be the same as Tan Qian, would he?

Is there another Tan Qian who just left?

Both the county lieutenant and the master book were worried.

When Qian Zhong saw the rockery in the county magistrate's mansion, the precious flowers and trees under the rockery, and the magnificent setting, he couldn't help frowning slightly.

It's no wonder that a small county magistrate would make troubles and make the emperor furious. Just looking at this house, you can tell how greedy he is.

Qian Zhong put down his burden, turned around and asked the county lieutenant, "Is Mr. Xunkan still in Qiongzhou?"

"Master Xunyan has left, and the affairs of the county are now being presided over by Mr. Sun and I. Let's talk to him after he washes up."

Qian Zhong nodded, "I heard in the capital that Tan Qian was so greedy and cool that the people were full of resentment, but now the people have been appeased?"

When Qian Zhong was inquiring about the affairs of the county, Gu Jingyun also received a letter from Zhang Yiyan. He opened the letter and saw that he couldn't help laughing, and said briskly to Li Baolu: "Our people have taken office."

Li Baolu took the letter and looked at Qian Zhong's resume, and said with a pale face, "Wu Zhi was just dismissed?"

"Being able to be dismissed is the result of the prince's series of fueling the flames. Otherwise, it will be Qian Zhong who will ask the crime in the end." Gu Jingyun said indifferently: "This is power."
