I was fucked by Zheng Ge as soon as I crossed over

Judging from the Lu family's actions, they must have made up their minds to break off the relationship with him.

But he couldn't agree easily. He had to make some money from this trip.

Otherwise, the other party would have no chance of escaping. Even if he was deposed, Lu Zhi would have to serve him until his death.

As it turned out, the person who understood him best was indeed Lu Zhi.

Everything he thought and intended was within Lu Zhi's expectations.

The cart moved forward slowly with a "squeaky" sound.

As Lu Shizhi deliberately took a detour, it took everyone a whole morning to reach the government office.

At this time, Lu Gong had already greeted the county magistrate and was just waiting to go to court to deal with the matter.

In the office, Lu Shizhi explained the whole story clearly, and the county magistrate ordered people to remove the gag from Liu Ji's mouth.

"Liu Ji, the head of the Sishui Pavilion, do you have anything else to say?"

Liu Ji moved his mouth left and right and bowed humbly to the county magistrate.

"Sir, this Cao is the mother of my eldest son. I was originally going to take her into my family, but Lu Zhi was jealous, so she delayed it until now. I will take Cao into my family when the clerk returns."

"You!" After hearing this, Lu Shizhi was about to kick the other person, but was stopped by a yamen runner beside him.

The county magistrate had already learned that Lu Zhi was about to become the disciple of the imperial teacher and had a bright future. Moreover, Lu Gong had just given him a cart full of generous gifts. He would naturally not listen to Liu Ji's excuses.

He picked up the gavel and slammed it down.

"Bang!" There was a sound, and the whole government office was shaken.

"According to what you said, you and Cao are not engaged, but you already have a child?"

Liu Ji still tried to argue, "There is an engagement, but it's just a verbal engagement between farmers."

The county magistrate interrupted his unreasonable talk and said, "Summon Lü Zhi to the court."

Lu Zhi had been waiting for this day for a long time.

She quickly arrived at the government office wearing plain clothes.

"Your Excellency, the County Magistrate, I only wish to divorce him peacefully."

Liu Ji: "No, I don't agree! Since ancient times, a woman must obey her husband. How can you ask to leave on your own? I don't agree!"

Lu Zhi's eyes were filled with rage as she stared at him fiercely. "Then I ask the magistrate to make the decision. I will kill my husband right then and there. If you want to punish me, I will bear the consequences."

Liu Ji looked at the pair of red eyes filled with hatred, and his heart began to panic.

This woman really wants to kill him.

When did she become so vicious?

Let’s think about this later; now’s the important thing.

He softened his voice and coaxed her, "Chi'er, there is no such deep hatred between us husband and wife. I will never look for that Cao again."

Cao, who had been huddled aside and sobbing softly, suddenly looked towards Liu Ji upon hearing this, her face filled with surprise and sadness.

While Liu Ji was lowering his head, he secretly gave Cao a wink, and the other party calmed down and continued to lower her head and pretend to cry.

Lu Zhi ignored their quarrel and just looked at the county magistrate with a firm tone.

"My lord, I have made up my mind."

The county magistrate naturally did not respond, his expression solemn: "Since this is the case, you two have become a couple with grievances. There is really no need to continue living together. So, let's part ways now."

The county magistrate was about to write the verdict after he finished speaking, but Liu Ji shouted loudly.

"I don't agree, sir, have you been bribed by the Lu family? I don't agree!"

"Be bold!"

The county magistrate was furious and slammed the gavel hard.

Liu Ji ignored everything and just kept shouting about the injustice.

Lü Zhi slowly turned to him and said sarcastically, "The dowry will remain with your family, and my family will not seek it back."

Liu Ji: "I also want your Lu family mansion!"

"Haha...then go to hell!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Ji continued to hold his head high and yell, "This is unfair law enforcement! Unfair! I'm going to sue Xianyang!"

Lu Zhi just twisted her neck and refused.

Finally, it was Lu Shizhi who came out and made the final decision, "My family still needs to live in that house, so I can't give it to you. Fifty gold coins, not even a penny more. It's up to you whether you agree or not. At worst, I can raise pheasants for the rest of my life."

Liu Ji was a man who was very good at observing people's expressions. Seeing that there was no profit to be made, he agreed decisively.

"Okay, it's a deal. Hand over the money and the deed."

Everyone ignored his mercenary look and waited for the servant to bring the gold cakes.

When the contract was signed, Liu Ji stood up triumphantly and was about to take the gold cake with him to Cao.

"Your Majesty!"

At the order of the county magistrate, the bailiffs took Liu Ji back to his original place.

"Liu Ji and Cao had an affair without a matchmaker and secretly gave birth to a child. This is a violation of Qin law. Each of them shall be beaten with thirty sticks and executed immediately."

"I... um..."

Liu Ji wanted to protest his innocence, but the yamen runners stuffed a smelly cloth into his mouth and escorted him out.

Lu Zhi and Lu Shizhi smiled at each other and returned home happily.

Outside the government office, Liu Ji was half dead after being tortured.

He was groaning and was helped by Liu's father and others to the cart and returned home.

In the shadows at the street corner, Mr. Zhao watched the scene quietly.

He remembered the secret order from His Majesty, asking him to try to take his life without making any noise.

Lord Zhao frowned and stared at the scoundrel who was behaving rudely, wondering why he didn't just chop off the man's head with a single blow.

He made a gesture to the person behind him, who immediately understood and followed in the direction of the cart.

It was a small matter that was thought to be easily resolved, but the materials officer returned with a look of frustration.

"Your Excellency, I failed to perform my duties properly and caused the cart to fall into a deep ditch. Cao, who was riding with me, was killed instantly, but Liu Ji was entangled in vines and is not seriously injured."

Lord Zhao looked at the officer kneeling in front of him. He was one of the top elite soldiers of the Qin Dynasty and had never failed.

How could Liu Ji be so lucky?

"It's not your fault, it's just a coincidence. Go down and rest."

"Yes, thank you for not punishing me."

After the material officer withdrew, Lord Zhao immediately wrote a letter about the incident and sent it to Xianyang at full speed.

When the letter was delivered, Ying Zheng was talking to Su Jinyue about Xu Fu.

The letter was unfolded, and Ying Zheng read the words on it, his eyes gradually darkening.

He handed the letter to Su Jinyue and lowered his head in thought.

Su Jinyue took the letter in confusion. As she read the contents of the letter, she finally understood where her father's unhappiness came from.

"With great fortune?"

"Son of Heaven?"

Haodadie looked at Su Jinyue speechlessly and with disgust.

Su Jinyue immediately understood, "Tuituitui, bullshit luck, nothing can compare to the kingly aura of my father!"

Great, Dad is satisfied. That’s good enough.

How can you boost others' morale and destroy your own prestige?

Su Jinyue offered a cup of hot drink to her father like a servile person. "Father, have some tea. Hehe, Father is the most majestic!"

"okay!"

Ying Zheng took the teacup and turned to other topics. "Well, Xu Fu, see you later. When the weather warms up, I'll have you follow me when I go out on patrol. We'll take a detour through Sanchuan County."

Su Jinyue nodded obediently, "I will listen to Father!"

Ying Zheng: "Think carefully, where are the other two of the Three Heroes of the Early Han Dynasty? This trip of mine must not be in vain."

Su Jinyue had a bitter face, "Father, I only know Han Xin's approximate location. Zhang Liang is running around everywhere, and he won't show up until you make your third round to assassinate him."

Ying Zheng had a wooden face and took a deep breath.

"call……"

Unbearable, no need to endure.

"Get off!"

Su Jinyue quickly took two tribute fruits and stuffed them into her sleeves, "Alas, father, I'm leaving~"
