Among the two choices Zhang Jian gave Ye Feng, there was actually another one hidden.
It's just not stated clearly because it contains the meaning of revenge.
I chose civilians because I wanted to be alone.
Choosing to live in the Zhang Mansion means seeking refuge for survival.
Choosing the hidden bar means: From now on, you will exist with a new identity, get involved in the officialdom, and work hard to climb up. It also means that Ye Feng agrees to become a member of the Zhang family camp and fight for a common goal.
If asked, it would be suspected of forcing Ye Feng.
Zhang Jian didn't know how to coerce people with favors, so he didn't ask.
If Ye Feng chooses one of the first two, although Zhang Jian will be disappointed, he will not force it, and he will still take care of him.
It's just that nothing else... is impossible.
Ye Feng gently stroked the hair of the little flat-headed brother in his palm.
When the guy with a flat head is not drying his hair, there is no problem in stroking it along. Although it is a bit rough and does not have the soft feel of a canopy, it is very refreshing to stroke it.
Hearing Zhang Jian's question, Ye Feng calmly replied: "I will live here and go to the Yamen."
Ye Feng doesn't like to be arranged by others, but since he has decided to cooperate with Zhang Jian, he can accept the platform that the other party has built for him.
Only then can he be allowed to develop.
He has passed the age of being stupid.
"Besides my mentor and the others, who else died in Sanshi County?"
Ye Feng asked his worried question.
Even the mentor and the nineteen guards are dead, what happened to Chen Da and the others? Brother Pingtou's attention was always on his mentor that night.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and new meals were delivered and placed one by one. Not rich and completely vegetarian.
Ye Feng found that Zhang Jianting knew how to take care of people.
As soon as the servants exited, he picked up his chopsticks and without any courtesy, took the lead and started eating first.
This is obviously because he is worried that Ye Feng comes from a rural area and does not understand the various eating procedures of wealthy people, so he simplifies them.
Ye Feng picked up the chopsticks and ate fiercely.
He knows good and evil very well.
And really hungry.
Even though it was all elegant vegetarian dishes, he still ate them without raising his head.
Zhang Jian nodded secretly.
This son is open-minded and not pretentious, easy-going and not pedantic, and quite able to take things as he is. He comes from a poor family but is not afraid of the rich and powerful. My inner satisfaction with him has increased by two points.
There have been three points before: Ye Feng’s answer and question.
It shows that he is a person who has long-term plans, values love and justice, and is intelligent and sensible.
Both of them were neat people and finished their meal quickly.
Zhang Jiancai answered Ye Feng's question.
"On the night of the accident, Sanshi County Government Office was burned to ashes by a fire..."
It's true...
The murderer can really be so cruel and vicious! The anger in Ye Feng's heart that he had been trying to suppress suddenly jumped, and he was extremely worried.
Zhang Jian looked away and moved somewhere outside the window. There was an extremely imperceptible tremor in his voice, but the expression on his face and the harmony of his voice were still as stable as a calm lake.
"They massacred the entire county government."
After Zhang Jian received the suicide note from his father Fei Ge, he arranged for people to rush to Sanshi County urgently, but he was still a step late. Moreover, the Tongjiang Prefecture had not yet arranged to "suppress the bandits", and there was no one left among the charred corpses lying in the ruins. Dare to touch.
"I arranged for the person to do the autopsy."
There is no need to say more.
Ye Feng knew how his mentor's body came back, and he also knew that it was unknown whether Chen Da and the others were still alive.
The current autopsy technology is still in the post-modern preliminary examination stage and has never involved an autopsy.
Ye Feng wanted to go back and open the grave and check again, but would it be useful? The test turned out to be the same murderer!
Even if he is filled with anger, he must put revenge first. That is the best way to make the living peaceful and the dead rest in peace.
There was no human rights in feudal society, which is evident from the rampant behavior of corrupt officials and bullies.
But the lack of human rights is still to come.
Before Ye Feng could calm down, he heard Zhang Jian say again: "Sanshi Wei Feng is dead, you have to become the new Wei Feng. In front of the Yamen, during the hot filial piety period, you and my daughter Wanrong will get married." ”
Ye Feng: "..."
He couldn't help but tighten his fingers, and the slight tingling sensation prevented him from slapping the table and jumping up.
I was so annoyed that Brother Flathead jumped down and ran away.
Ye Feng can understand why he needs to become another person. Now he is a specious bait, and he has to lure Lin Sijian into action.
He just didn't understand why he was getting married suddenly? Is it really okay for Zhang Jian to make such a big sacrifice?
Ye Feng in his previous life never got married until his death. How long had it been since he traveled through time? Just come down from heaven...
He didn't even know how to describe it.
He shook his head and wanted to refuse.
Zhang Jian understood that what he said was abrupt, and he could understand it when he saw Ye Feng being stunned.
Then before he could react, he explained calmly: "Rong'er was given a bad reputation because of his skill as a doctor who once saved an old man on the street, so he has been kept in a harem. Since you and I have to work hard for the same goal, marriage is the foundation."
Nowadays, men and women are heavily guarded, and the status of women is unprecedentedly low. Zhang Wanrong touched a man's body in the street, even if it was just an old man, her reputation was completely ruined.
Zhang Jian can find a son-in-law for him, or marry him away from home.
Now seeing Ye Feng, one of whom his father admired and selected, Zhang Jian himself changed his attitude after testing him, and made such a decision.
Ye Feng was speechless.
The best way for ancient people to stabilize a relationship: marriage.
He has let Zhang Jian see his mind and "availability", so this is one of the ways Zhang Jian "repays" him.
As for Zhang Jian, is he trustworthy?
Ye Feng was also willing to believe in his mentor. And the impression this person gave him was pretty good.
Again: none of this really matters.
Just as he thought before, they are now: one is sick and the other has medicine.
After a few breaths, Ye Feng nodded.
"After three years, he will be free."
The meaning is: the marriage is a sham, Zhang Wanrong must observe mourning for three years, and within three years Ye Feng must avenge his master, and then let Zhang Wanrong pursue happiness.
Zhang Jian has no doubt about this.
Originally, it was not possible to have sex during the filial piety period. If this brat still can't satisfy his daughter after three years, then there's no problem in divorcing him.
…
On the eighth day of October, there was a new hot topic among people in the capital.
"Have you heard? Zhang Jian married his only legitimate daughter to a poor boy who came to visit his family."
"Why didn't you hear about it? I also heard that that guy was not even a Jinshi, so he just made Zhang Jian the director of the Ministry of Punishment. He will be able to take office when the office opens in a few years."
"Tsk, tsk, who do you think that boy is? I heard that Zhang Jian paid for his new house, food, clothing, and even the betrothal gift. What a pity for his beautiful eldest daughter."
"Oh, you just know she's beautiful, why don't you think about her reputation? She was rejected because she treated a man on the street."
"Oh, I understand. There is no one else who wants to love her. A handsome young man just came to show her love. No wonder Zhang Jian is willing to give up anything."
Everyone looked like they were suddenly enlightened.
I don't feel strange about selling an official position, don't regret the death of Zhang Du's censor, and don't think it's strange to get married in a hurry during the hot period. I'm just curious about who the envious guy is.
"Hey, what's the name of that lucky handsome boy?"
"Ye Feng. I heard that he is a distant relative of Mrs. Zhang Jian of Longzhou Prefecture."
"..."
And Ye Feng, whom they were hotly discussing, was disguising himself as another Ye Feng, standing in the yard of his fiancée Zhang Wanrong, preparing to solve the case.
On this day, Zhang Wanrong's personal maid Cui'er suddenly died in the hospital in broad daylight.
