Transmigrated into a Prosperous Farm Wife, Pampered, Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Prime Minister

"It's just me; the others are still searching for the young general elsewhere." Mo Yun suppressed his excitement.

He came here hoping to get lucky after seeing the flying pigeon whistle, but he never expected it to actually be the young general.

Previously, some people had falsely spread the message of sending pigeons, causing them to lose many men.

Other things can be faked, but General Chang's unique techniques were only passed down to the young general, and others cannot learn them overnight.

Although the young general in front of me looks different, his voice is still the same.

"I'll try to contact my old friends and get back to Beijing as soon as possible," Jiang Changtian said, feeling he couldn't just sit and wait for his fate any longer.

Mo Yun pondered for a moment, "Young General, the situation with the Madam is very bad. Should we tell her that you are still alive?"

When Jiang Changtian mentioned his biological mother, he looked worried. After a while, he saw some grass at the base of the wall, pulled it up, and turned it into a grass ring. "Give this to her, and she will know."

Mo Yun hesitated for a long time after receiving the document, but still did not tell the young general about the Zhang family's forced marriage.

The young general barely survived, and if he goes back now, he'll become meat on those people's chopping block.

"I will certainly convey your message. I wonder where I should look for the young general next time?"

"Don't call me Little General anymore. There is no such person as Little General in this world. Remember, my name is Jiang Changtian."

Mo Yun agreed and left quickly.

Jiang Changtian returned to the butcher's stall.

"Jiang Xiucai, where did you go just now? Your meat is all cut up. Look, it's definitely the right weight. Take care."

The butcher smiled and put the meat into a basket, handing it to Jiang Changtian.

"Thank you." Jiang Changtian said his thanks and carried the basket of meat into the quiet alley.

In the dilapidated alley, a group of stray cats gathered around.

Mo Yun remained hidden among the crowd, watching the people surrounded by stray cats for a long time before finally leaving.

The market was still bustling and noisy.

……

……

The prefectural city, the residence of Prefect Xu.

"Master, Consort Guo's old ailment has flared up again. You must go and see her quickly!"

As the nearly fifty-year-old Prefect Xu was reviewing the list of successful candidates for this year's academy in his study, he heard his steward rush in to say something.

"Have you asked the doctor?"

Guo Zhen, the concubine of the prefect, was always very favored. Now she said that she had a heartache. After hearing the news, Prefect Xu went to the backyard without stopping.

"Zhen'er, my dear Zhen'er, why are you sick again all of a sudden?"

When the maids who were serving him saw Prefect Xu enter, they all hurriedly lowered their heads and retreated.

The beauty on the bed was half-undressed, and she didn't even glance at him.

"Hmph, it's all because of you! I said I wanted to go back to my parents' home to visit, but you wouldn't let me. My wife is always causing me trouble. What's the point of me living? I might as well be dead!"

Guo Zhen was around twenty years old and very charming. Seeing her clutching her chest, Magistrate Xu felt sorry for her and sat down by the bed to comfort her.

“My darling, my darling, I was wrong. I’ve been quite busy lately and neglected you. You can go back to your parents’ home. I will give the order, and you won’t need to ask your wife for permission anymore.”

After saying this, Prefect Xu went to embrace his beloved concubine, and Guo Zhen leaned in against him, half-heartedly resisting.

"The small matter has been resolved, but there's still one more thing, which I mentioned to you before. It's a pity that my younger brother died so young. My father, an old man, is burying his son. If I can't get revenge, what's the point of me living!"

“I don’t care about the master, you have to take charge and make decisions for me.”

Guo Zhen leaned against Prefect Xu and drew circles.

When Prefect Xu heard this, he was really at his wit's end. The task Guo Zhen had asked him to do was no ordinary thing; it was to block the enrollment list of a scholar named Jiang Changtian and expel him from the academy.

The academy's students are submitted to the higher authorities every year. If Prefect Xu doesn't submit the students with academic titles, then those students won't receive their titles.

"This... Mishan Academy wasn't founded by some nobody. Although Bai Heng doesn't hold an official position in the court, he knows quite a few people. Isn't this making things difficult for me?"

If it were a student with a lower ranking making up an excuse, that would be one thing, but this student is the top student.

Going against the academy is not just difficult, it's utterly impossible.

That's why Prefect Xu's hair grew so big.

"Hmph, then don't come looking for me tonight, and don't come looking for me again in the future. Just let me die."

Guo Zhen snorted coldly, and while Xu Zhifu was urging her to leave, she was pounding her stomach and crying.

But she was pregnant, and Magistrate Xu, having a child late in life, couldn't bear to see her mistreating her unborn child like this, so he hurriedly began to coax her.

"My darling, I'll listen to you, I'll listen to everything you say, okay?"

A glint of light flashed in Guo Zhen's eyes. "Then you can't lie to me. If I find out you've lied to me, I won't let you off the hook."

"Good good."

After finally calming the man down, Prefect Xu went to his study.

"Someone, go and investigate this Jiang Changtian. If he doesn't have any background..."

The servant replied, "Master, I understand."

After issuing the order, Prefect Xu sat down on a stool and sighed. Being able to rank first in the examination shows that one has real talent and learning.

Unfortunately, it's just that this scholar was incredibly unlucky; of all people to offend, he had to offend the Guo family.

He'll sound out Magistrate Meng's opinion, and then get rid of this man.

……

……

"I'm telling you, are you two sick or something? I've told you so many times, I won't eat your food, but you still insist on sending it over."

At the entrance of the courtyard, when Qin Niangzi saw that Gui Tong had brought over another batch of dark, unappetizing vegetables, she immediately put her hands on her hips and went up to the door to scold him.

Lin Shuyun and Jiang Changtian went out today, leaving only Qin Niangzi at home who knows how to cook. She was just about to start cooking when Gui Tong came to deliver the groceries.

If the food delivered was edible, that would be fine, but this dark, unappetizing stuff looks like it's trying to poison someone!

Dr. Zhang, standing in the courtyard with his neck hunched, said, "Madam Qin, we're all neighbors. It's only right for neighbors to take care of each other. That's why I had Gui Tong deliver the food. Besides, I'm a doctor, so it's convenient for you if you have a headache or fever, isn't it?"

How could a lady of noble birth cook and serve others? That's why he had Gui Tong deliver meals to her every day.

"Pah! Are you cursing me?! You're asking for trouble!"

Qin Niangzi grabbed a broom from behind the door, ready to hit someone, when suddenly someone appeared at her door.

"Who are you looking for?"

Qin Niangzi thought to herself, "There are so many yamen runners, but no one in their family has committed any crimes. Could it be that Yunyun has caused trouble?"

"Is this Jiang Changtian's house?"

The head constable asked Qin Niangzi a question.

Qin Niangzi immediately said, "No, this is the Lin family's residence."

Her niece's courtyard is the Lin family's.

"Jiang Changtian clearly lives here. Are you deliberately trying to deceive us, woman?!" The constable scolded Qin Niangzi with a displeased expression.

"Jiang Changtian, what do you want with Jiang Changtian?"

Xian An, having nothing to do, remembered the pears he had eaten that day and thought he would try his luck to see if he could buy a few more. Unexpectedly, when he arrived, he saw so many yamen runners looking for Jiang Changtian.

Qin Niangzi's eyes darted around. "Changtian, where have you been? Why are you only just getting back?"
