Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 7069 Expectation
Outside Guanyi.

In the wild mountain villa.

Mickey held a book of poetry in her hand and read it shaking her head.

After talking with Zi Yan, she felt much happier, and even looked forward to it.

If she were to be compared with those real scholars, she would not be able to compare, but if she were to be compared with her companions, then she would have no pressure.

You must know that her companions are all from poor families and have never read since they were young. In the Hou Mansion, it took a lot of effort just to learn how to read, let alone study.

After all, she is one of the best.

That being the case, what else is there to be afraid of?

After reading an article, Mickey closed the book and walked out of the room quickly.

It was already bright outside, and it was already the morning of the second day.

Mi Qi stretched her waist, and was about to get up early for a routine exercise, when she turned her head and saw Zi Yan walking towards her.

"Sister Ziyan, that guy Wei Qing'an has already made arrangements. I can feel that he didn't escape in the manor."

"Okay, I'll leave it to you here, I'll go back to Guanyi first, and prepare to catch the next wave of people." Ziyan said.

"Okay, sister Ziyan, don't worry, I will coax that Liu Yuanyi well, I know my sister will definitely use him for fishing." Mi Qi nodded.

"That's right, there is a big fish behind Liu Yuanyi, don't be impatient, take your time." Zi Yan raised the corners of her lips and narrowed her eyes slightly.

……

Ziyan returned to Guanyi. Before she came back, all merchants were not allowed to leave the prison, and this is the place where one man guards the gate and ten thousand men cannot open it. It is also a place that must pass through when going south. Anyone who wants to go south This path cannot be avoided.

Unless, they don't go south.

Whether Feng Yuanquan will also go south, Ziyan is not sure, she can only check one merchant by one.

If she still can't find it within a period of time, she has no choice but to give up.

She can only stay for another day. After today, she has to go back to Ping'an County. Ge Hongmin is still waiting for her.

After a whole day, Zi Yan was covered with fatigue, but she couldn't find any trace.

Handing over the next inspection matters to other officials, she rode away from the Guan post and rushed to Ping'an County.

At this time, there was already a panic in Ping'an County.

The streets were no longer as bustling as they used to be, and soldiers in armor were walking everywhere.

The merchants closed their doors tightly and did not dare to come out. Even the teahouses, brothels and other places that were bustling with people outside were in depression.

From time to time, the doors of rich families were forcibly opened by soldiers, and a group of wolves and tigers rushed in to operate them, and the sound of crying and howling spread all over the place.

After Ziyan rode her horse into the street, she ran straight towards the county government.

When Zi Yan stepped into the lobby of the county government office, she saw Fang Feirong sitting upright looking through the files on the table, and on the other side of the table, a whole set of clothes was neatly stacked.

It was the official uniform issued by the imperial court, and the official hat was placed on it neatly.

"What do you mean?" Zi Yan found a seat and sat down by herself.

"Commander, this is the official uniform and hat, please return it to the court." Fang Feirong said lightly.

"Are you a pickpocket?" Zi Yan raised her eyebrows.

"I have failed the emperor's Long En, violated the law, and am no longer suitable for the post of county magistrate..."

"Shut up, it's not your turn to say this. Whether you are guilty or not, the only one who has the power to decide this matter is the emperor. If the emperor and the cabinet don't let the officials revoke your position for a day, then you are still the county magistrate."

"I know you want to leave the place of right and wrong now, but you can do whatever you want in this place. You still have to stand up for the stall in Ping'an County." Ziyan raised her lips.

Fang Feirong said in astonishment: "The emperor should have a secret decree for your lord. A magistrate like me should be able to take it directly."

"That's right, Mr. Fang really knows the inside story of the imperial court. In an emergency, I have the privilege to take your official hat, but I don't plan to use this power..."

"Master Fang, Ping'an County, there are a lot of things and things to do now, and you still have a lot to do."

"So, now you can't leave."

Fang Feirong took a deep breath, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Okay, my lord, I will do it first and wait for the next magistrate to take up his post..."

"Why do you always persist in thinking that you are guilty?" This is something that Zi Yan has always been quite puzzled about.

A trace of sadness appeared on Fang Feirong's face.

"To tell the truth, my lord, when I went to serve as the magistrate of Ping'an County, I thought of governing one side and benefiting one side, but after I arrived, I gradually discovered that this place is actually a dragon's pond and a tiger's lair. Under the glitz outside, it is full of white bones."

"In order to find enough criminal evidence, Liu Yuanyi and I made false claims and joined forces. I was also a part of many of the evil things they did. How many innocent people have their families destroyed? Tell me, how can I be innocent?" Fang Feirong's face twisted. , looked a little painful, obviously recalling some bad memories from the past.

"Your purpose is to bring the villain to justice, and you didn't intend to harm anyone." Zi Yan thought for a while before slowly saying.

But her heart was still heavy, as if a big rock had been crushed.

Although Fang Feirong didn't want to do evil, and even had good ideas, but after some action, he did sacrifice a lot of people.

In the big picture, he was right, but personally, he was wrong.

She has no way of knowing how to evaluate it.

"Harming someone unintentionally is also hurting people. If you make a mistake, you are wrong. What kind of parental official is this to ruin the families of the people under your rule? Do parents let their children die for their own ideals?" Fang Feirong's smile was very bitter.

Zi Yan lowered her eyelids, and slowly said a word, a word she had heard from Yang Ruoqing.

"A grain of sand of the times, falling on an individual, is like a mountain."

When he raised his eyes, he saw that Fang Feirong's face was already full of tears. This man who had never shed tears was broken by these words at this moment.

"Sometimes, many times late at night, I don't want to live... But later, I think about it, death is the easiest and the most impotent..."

"When a person dies, who will atone for the sins he committed?"

"I want to live, and I want to live to clean up my sins."

Zi Yan opened her mouth to speak, but found herself speechless and speechless.

After all, she couldn't forgive Fang Feirong for those injured!
After all, Mickey was one of the victims!
She thought of the first time she saw Mickey...the one with ragged clothes, muddy face, stubborn but timid numbness and despair in her eyes, thinking of her at that time, she could only sigh.

"Master Fang, it's all over. What you have to do now is to look forward and let the people of Ping'an County live and work in peace and truly enjoy peace!"

Leaving the county government office, the person who saw him off was a man holding an iron gall.
