I'm taking the imperial examinations in Liaozhai

After seeing off the first person to pay New Year's greetings, Ji Zihe stretched and yawned.

"So sleepy? Go to sleep for a while?" There was no one around, and Meng Zhang didn't bother to pretend, and sat down casually.

Ji Zihe shook his head, "Forget it, it will be dawn soon, even if you sleep, you won't be able to sleep for long, so why bother."

Meng Zhang couldn't hold it back, and slapped him with a refreshing spell, Ji Zihe still looked lazy.

Meng Zhang was sure that he wouldn't even have a problem with such a small spell.As for why Ji Zihe didn't change, the problem must be his own.This is probably because the head is awake, but the body is still lazy.

Meng Zhang shook his head, and didn't bother to persuade him, "Just be happy."

"By the way, Bones, don't your dragon clan spread all over the country, and you are very well-informed?"

"Correct me, I am not of the same species as the Dragon Clan." The naturally raised Qinglong Shenjun pointed out the mistake seriously.

"This is a small problem. Anyway, you are also a dragon, and the dragon clan is also a dragon. The dragon clan still respects you as their ancestor. Why care about those details."

Qinglong Shenjun used to hate others to associate him with the dragon clan. Even though they were indeed very close, Qinglong Shenjun actually looked down on those dragon clans from the bottom of his heart, and always had a mentality of being superior to dragons.But now hearing what Ji Zihe said, Meng Zhang really felt that it made sense. Anyway, it is estimated that few people know the difference.

"Speaking of the Dragon Clan, the Dragon Clan has indeed been quite prosperous in recent years. Although the status in the Heaven Realm is a bit low, the Heaven Realm didn't clean up their priesthood, and it was considered a fig leaf, so that the appearance of the Heaven Realm is not too ugly. The Dragon Clan There are sea dragon kings all over the river, rivers have river dragon kings, lakes have lake dragon kings, mountains have earth dragon kings, volcanoes have fire dragon kings, lakes have pool dragon kings, and even wells have well dragon kings. They can be said to be everywhere. You are well-informed, you should be well-informed." Meng Zhang touched his chin and said.

Ji Zihe lowered his eyes, "Bone, I want to ask you one thing."

"what's up?"

"Help me find someone."

"Oh, who do you want to check?"

"My mother."

"Didn't the mother-in-law pass away long ago?" Meng Zhang asked in surprise.

Ji Zihe shook his head, "I always feel that my mother is not dead, and grandpa has always been vague about my mother's affairs and refused to say it clearly."

Meng Zhang suddenly thought of something, "Do you think that monk yesterday..."

Ji Zihe nodded, "If his looks are natural, I think he should have something to do with my mother, maybe I should call him my younger brother."

Meng Zhang straightened his expression, "I will help you find out about this matter. But, why don't you ask your grandfather? Maybe he knows something inside. If you ask now, he should tell you everything."

A trace of panic flashed across Ji Zihe's face, and he picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, "No, I can't. I'm not interested in what happened back then, and I don't want to know about the past. You don't have to check too much, just check Just check if she is still alive, where she lives, and if she is doing well. Don't tell me other things, I don't want to know more. "

Meng Zhang narrowed his eyes, "Well, okay. But, what are you afraid of?"

Ji Zihe glanced at him suspiciously, "Why do you ask that? I have nothing to be afraid of."

"Really? Then why are your hands shaking?"

Only then did Ji Zihe notice that his hand holding the teacup was shaking like a sieve, and the cup seemed to be dancing on the saucer.

Ji Zihe froze for a moment, then put the lid on the cup pretending to be calm, and put the cup back on the table.

"What's shaking, you read it wrong." Ji Zihe opened his eyes and said nonsense, planning to use a trick that a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.

"Well, I was wrong. Your hands didn't shake, and you're not nervous at all." Meng Zhang said with a smile in the corner of his eyes, following Ji Zihe's words seriously.

Ji Zihe

Glancing at him, seeing that he still hasn't restrained himself, he rushed forward decisively, and hammered his chest with his iron fist, "It's too much, you still laugh at me, you really deserve to hit me."

The Qinglong Shenjun with rough skin and thick flesh really doesn't hurt at all, let alone an iron fist, even the magic weapons of those awesome gods can't leave scratches on his scales. That's all.

However, this showman dragon is willing to play with his little... bah, big sweet wife.Even with this "soft" fist, he was able to spit out two mouthfuls of blood. With a pale face, his body seemed to be thinner than paper, he really was a man of no pretentiousness.

Ji Zihe: =. =

roll!

Rong Ge opened his eyes, lying on the bed like a wooden man, staring blankly at the roof.

It took a while for her to move. She slowly raised her hand to her eyes and moved her eyeballs, as if she didn't recognize her body.

She clenched her palm tightly, and her not-so-long nails sank into the flesh of her palm, leaving a few deep crescents.

Rong Ge looked puzzled, why does it hurt, isn't she dead?Could it be that she is still alive?Impossible, how could Wuxin let her still be alive?

As if the three souls and seven souls had returned to their positions, Rong Ge sat up abruptly and touched her body. There was not a single wound, but the blood-stained clothes were still on her body.

The reason why she didn't change her clothes was because Ji Zihe didn't have any female relatives here, and she was afraid that Rong Ge would misunderstand her after waking up, so she was still wearing yesterday's clothes.

Rong Ge searched all over his body but couldn't find the dagger, so he shouted, "Wuxin! Wuxin!"

However, no matter how she called, there was no response.Rong Ge was at a loss, what was going on, Wuxin didn't want her soul, could it be that he didn't handle things well?

damn it!Rong Ge's face was a little ferocious, and he punched the bed board.There was a bang, and the old willow bed in the guest room, which had not been replaced because it seemed to be still usable, had finally come to the end of its life.

Rong Ge, who sank along with the collapsed bed, was finally no longer immersed in her own world, and she looked around with some guilt.Where is she? Who saved her?If you break someone's bed, you must lose money.

Speaking of money is a headache. In order to treat her mother, her pockets are now cleaner than her face.Not only did he not have a son, but he also owed the Yamen a lot of money.Even if you want to be a servant for others to pay for the bed, you have to pay back the money from the yamen first.If he really died before, he could have repudiated his debt, but now that he has not died, there is no way to repudiate.If you are worried about yourself, it is really difficult for a penny to beat a hero, or she should run away while there is no one.

Here Rong Ge is struggling with the immorality of running the road, and Meng Zhang, whose spiritual consciousness covers the entire county government, told Ji Zihe about her sobriety.

Ji Zihe, who had been busy all morning receiving guests who came to pay New Year's greetings, received this good news not long after he rested.Immediately, walking windily, he arrived at the guest room, pushed open the door directly, with a polite smile on his face, "Hurry up, you... Hold on to my big old willow bed!"

Seeing Ji Zihe whose face changed instantly, Rong Ge twitched the corner of his mouth and showed an awkward smile.

"If you lose money, you have to lose money. This bed belongs to the public. It would be fine if it collapsed by itself, but you deliberately collapsed it. You have damaged the property of the public house. It cannot be justified if you don't lose money." Ji Zihe sat in the guest room. On the chair, looking businesslike.

The place where Ji Zihe lives now is the county government, and this house is only for him to live in, not his real estate.The county government was built with funds from above, and the daily maintenance and repairs were also allocated from above, so the previous county magistrates only had the right of residence and could not treat it as private property.Not to mention the bed, even the piece of vana on the roof of the county government house is public property, and it has to be registered, and no one can decide where it goes.

Cough, but of course, things will always break one day, and there is always some flexibility.Since it is a place for people to live in, something will always be damaged.Of course, there is no need for the county magistrate to compensate for these, he only needs to make an application, and the public can make up for the missing things without spending his own money.

Why did Ji Zihe make Rong Ge lose money?Mainly because he was angry.Rong Ge wanted to run away after receiving his wages in advance, is he right for the person who wrote her a note?Deliberately destroying public property, are you protesting that you saved her life?He had to lose money, and Ji Zihe was angry if he didn't lose money.

Rong Ge also knew what he was doing was dishonest, and stood in front of Ji Zihe with his head hooked like a bullied daughter-in-law, "My lord, I have no money."

"No money? Use your salary to pay. Also, you paid a lot of salary from the Yamen in advance, and I also remember it. Even if you want to leave the job, you have to finish the work before you can think about it. You are not allowed to ask for leave and leave early, otherwise you will be deducted." Salary." Ji Zihe said viciously.

Rong Ge looked at his floor, wondering, "My lord, you can work, but how can I live without money?"

"What's the problem? Your house can be retired. Anyway, you are single now. There are many places in the county office, and there is no shortage of places for you to live alone. This will save you the money for renting a house. As for food... ..." Ji Zihe showed a gloomy smile, "The cafeteria of our county government provides three meals, you can eat whatever you want, and you can eat as much as you want."

Master Gao's craftsmanship in the cafeteria is top-notch. The prisoners in the prison can't wait to cry after eating it, and they don't want to eat the second meal after the first meal.There are so few prisoners in the prison of the Ning'an County Government, so he must be responsible for it.Let Rong Ge have a meal in the cafeteria for a while, anyway, she can't kill anyone, just let her reflect on her mistakes.

But Ji Zihe didn't expect that Rong Ge didn't have any resistance to dining in the cafeteria.Although she used to be a well-clothed young lady for many years, since she escaped, she has never suffered.When she was desperate, she even dug grass roots and gnawed bark to satisfy her hunger.Today, she has long since had no requirements for food, no matter how unpalatable something is, as long as it can fill her stomach, she can eat it without changing her face.Only those who have been hungry can truly appreciate the preciousness of food.

"Thank you for your kindness, sir. I'll move here when I get back." Rong Ge bowed down to thank Ji Zihe, with an empty pocket. She really had no money to pay the rent.If Ji Zihe didn't take her in, she might be sleeping on the street by the end of the month.

"However, my lord, why am I in the county government office? Where did you find me? Have you ever seen a short knife beside me?" Rong Ge raised his head and asked.
