Only then did Cheng Jingzhou remember that there was another farm.
This was sent here by the King of Xiangjun, but two female corpses were dug up there. No matter what they were used for, they had to be dried now.
"Let's go and have a look some other day to see how the layout of this house is, and then decide how to use it. As for these fields, since they are the sincerity of the Xiangjun Palace, we will take them back to the government for the time being. As for the original work there, The people will not move for the time being."
"Yes, adults are still thoughtful."
Under normal circumstances, this kind of thing would belong to the county magistrate himself, and no one would take the opportunity to cause trouble.
But now that Cheng Jingzhou is willing to attribute these things to the county government, naturally he is not the only one who will benefit from this.
Li Yue has been taken away, and the clearing operation in Feng County is still in progress.
The most difficult thing now is the women who have been rescued.
If we were to let them go home, if ten of them went back, nine would probably commit suicide, and the remaining one would have to be sold by the family to someone else as a wife or concubine.
Xie Rongzhao had an idea: "Let's find out the background of these people first. If they are unwilling to go back, then take them in. They are all women. They can't learn too complicated things, but they can always spin and weave, right? Even if they are No, it’s not difficult to learn this.”
"Well, your method is good. But do these people need to be placed together or separated?"
"How about I go meet them? You are all men, and those girls are too embarrassed to tell you the truth."
Cheng Jingzhou also felt that this was the case. He had originally intended for Guobao to show up. Now that she had mentioned it, Cheng Jingzhou happily bowed to her and said, "My lady has thought carefully, and everything will be hard for me."
Xie Rongzhao glared at him and turned to go to Wang Zizhen to discuss the idea.
It took Xie Rongzhao two days to finish communicating with these girls.
As soon as Cheng Jingzhou came back, he saw her in a state of despair and thought it was because the girls' affairs were difficult to deal with.
"But tired?"
Xie Rongzhao shook his head and said without energy: "Husband, I went to talk to them. Two of them are still young girls, but she was kidnapped for more than a month. No matter how innocent she is, others will only think that she is not innocent. So. They don’t dare to go home either.”
Cheng Jingzhou also sighed. Now that things have come to this, he can only think of the best.
Most of these women have already met their families, but some of them dislike them and speak harshly, scolding them that they would be better off dead!
Others really feel sorry for them and want to take them back, but they are afraid that their neighbors will judge them, so they are worried about where they will end up in the future.
Xie Rongzhao sighed: "I think it's better to take them to the capital. Leave Feng County and change places where no one knows them. At least they can live more comfortably."
Cheng Jingzhou nodded: "That's okay."
"You are now the county magistrate. Can you change their identities and get a new household registration? They can keep their surnames and just change their names."
"I have to discuss this matter with the county magistrate and the chief registrar."
This kind of thing is actually not that difficult. Generally, as long as there is a guarantor, it is like changing their name. They just don't want those insiders to always talk about them behind their backs.
"Where's the housekeeper?"
"Don't worry, I know what's going on."
Since we are changing people's identities, it is natural that the fewer people know about it, the better. Otherwise, why bother changing it?
"You are listless because of their mood?"
"That's not entirely true. I just think it's not easy for women. No matter how bad your reputation is outside, as long as you are rich and powerful, you can always find a wife. But if a woman is not careful, her reputation will be ruined. Living is like suffering, and death It’s really unfair to still have to bear the stigma.”
Cheng Jingzhou raised his eyebrows. He didn't know how to persuade him about this kind of thing.
The world is like this, even if he feels it is unfair, there is nothing he can do.
Just do something within your own capabilities to make these poor people's lives better.
A few days later, the matter was settled and these people were sent to an embroidery village under the name of Xie Rongzhao in the capital.
The women who work in Xiuzhuang rarely go out, and the environment is relatively safer.
They are all strangers, so they won’t be judged by others anymore.
And Dali Temple's treatment of Li Yue finally came down.
Li Yue committed several crimes. Without waiting for Dali Temple's verdict, Emperor Jingwen ordered someone to bring a pot of poisoned wine. If Li Yue refused to accept it, there was nothing he could do.
And when the Prince of Xiangjun learned that Li Yue was so bold as to offend Duke Cheng'en and Princess Changle, he really thought that his life was too long!
After learning that Li Yue had imprisoned the daughters of these two families, he knew that Li Yue's son could not be saved.
It was only then that he realized how wrong he had been.
The King of Xiangjun went to the palace several times to apologize to the Holy One, but was never summoned. It was not until that day that he received someone's advice and submitted a letter of apology, and was summoned by the Holy One.
"Wei Chen is aware of his crime! Please punish me, Your Majesty!"
As soon as King Xiang entered the palace, he knelt down and bowed his head to admit his mistake. This move made Emperor Jingwen's depression dissipate a little.
"You idiot! Look at all the stupid things you've done! It's just that you can't share the affairs for me, but you dare to cause me such a big trouble, you are simply an idiot!"
"Yes, yes, I know that I am guilty. I am ignorant. Please ask the Holy One to punish me."
After Emperor Jingwen scolded him severely, he said: "You are so good, you still know that you have made such a mistake. Do you really regret it?"
"Wei Chen is indeed sincerely repentant, and I ask for His Majesty's permission."
"Well, as long as you have this intention. I will agree to this offer. You can pack your things and go to the temple tomorrow. You will not be allowed to go down the mountain for less than a year."
"Yes, Wei Chen accepts the order."
"I heard that you dote on that concubine very much?"
"I don't dare, I don't dare. Wei Chen has already punished her, and it is also written in the apology document that Wei Chen does not dare to have any other concubines besides the main concubine."
Emperor Jingwen hummed heavily, and then he was satisfied.
The next day, the royal palace of Xiangjun received an imperial edict.
The king of Xiangjun made a big mistake because he failed to teach his son well. He knew that his crime was unforgivable, so he asked to give up his title as king of Xiangjun and let his son Li Xing inherit it. Li Xing's biological mother was demoted to a commoner and was imprisoned in the inner courtyard. , you will not be able to get it for the rest of your life.
In other words, Li Yue never saw his biological mother again until his death, and the concubine never saw his biological son again.
The concubine who had been doted on by the King of Xiangjun for more than ten years only this time truly realized what it was like to be a person. She no longer had the scenery, rich clothes and food she had in the past.
However, the eldest princess of Changle couldn't get rid of her hatred. She even teamed up with the princess of the county and used a trick to escape from her shell. She took the concubine out and tortured her day and night!
At this time, Cheng Jingzhou, who was far away in Feng County, was taking his wife and several subordinates to Zhuangzi for an outing. (End of chapter)
