The voice of the loyal servant Chen An came from outside the door. He carefully reminded the county magistrate that there were still two lawsuits to be fought in the afternoon. The state of the magistrate was very worrying.

"Got it, go get Aunt Mei and ask her to tie my hair and change my clothes."

The county magistrate recovered from the state of madness just now, saw the hair hanging down from his forehead, and wiped his face vigorously before instructing the outside.

Now his first wife has become a burden to him, and Mei Xiang and another concubine have too low identities to stand on the table, so he should look for his next county magistrate's wife in advance.

Although Mei Xiang is this personal maid, she is also a smart and timid woman, and she should know when to make a better choice.

Soon, the door of the study was lightly knocked a few times, and after the county magistrate responded, aunt Mei Xiang walked in.

She was holding a water basin and a towel in her hand, and the little maid behind her was holding the county magistrate's official hat and boots.

"Master, my concubine will serve you first and cleanse your face."

Mei Xiang motioned for the little maid to put the things down, then twisted a hot towel herself, came over and put it on the face of the county magistrate, and pressed it on the way to open it.

The county magistrate closed his eyes and let her busy, wiped his face and then his body, and finally served him and started changing.

"Mei Xiang, how many years have I taken you in?"

The county magistrate suddenly asked.

"It's been five years since I went back to the master."

Mei Xiang's heart skipped a beat, and she had a vague sense of ominous premonition. The county magistrate's words were by no means pointless. Thinking of Madam's current situation, her heart beat even faster.

"You should know, who is your real master, right? Mei Xiang, I have always known that you are a very smart person. I hope you will not let me down."

When the county magistrate finished saying this, it happened that Mei Xiang was buttoning the last button of the official uniform for him. She shook her hand when she heard the words and almost tore the button off.

She raised her head in a panic and wanted to apologize, but she slammed into a pair of cold eyes, and suddenly suffocated, her whole mind went blank.

Mei Xiang didn't know how she got out of the study. By the time she recovered, she had already walked into the courtyard outside.

The county magistrate had already left the study one step earlier and went to Shengtang to inquire about the case, while she came out behind him. If the county magistrate was not there, no one would be allowed to approach the study.

Although Mei Xiang was standing in the sun, basking in the scorching sun, she still couldn't contain the chill that was rising all over her body. She tried her best to rub her arms with her hands, trying to make herself feel a little warmer.

If she guessed right, the eldest master meant to let her choose a side, but why should she choose a side?

Madam and him are both her masters, but once she starts to choose sides, it means that she can only have one master, and then think about it later...

Mei Xiang shook her head violently and threw the terrible thought out of her mind. Although she tried her best not to think in that direction, she already knew very well in her heart that this family was about to change.

The county magistrate was in a good state of mind in the afternoon. Both cases were tried very quickly, and there were no mistakes. This made the nervous master who had been beside him finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After he went down, he tentatively asked the county magistrate: "Master, you have a good rest at noon today, and you seem to be in a good mood now."

The county magistrate nodded with a smile: "The midday nap can really make people feel refreshed. When this official woke up, he felt a lot more refreshed."

He is a decisive person. Now that he has made a decision, the next step is to put it into action, but the plan must be well-planned, so that no one can detect any clues.

The county magistrate naturally has no guilt about this. Du Yueyan has no children for so many years. He has not divorced her and married another. He has already done his best. Now that she has become his biggest burden and stumbling block, then he will get rid of her. There is nothing wrong with it.

The master didn't know what the county magistrate was thinking, but he was very aware of another thing, which was the county magistrate's biggest heart disease.

He hesitated for a while, but chose to get closer to the ear of the county magistrate, and whispered: "Master, I heard a piece of news recently, I don't know if you want to hear it."

"Oh, what news?"

The county magistrate originally had a shallow smile on his face, but after seeing the master's expression, the smile gradually turned dark.

"It's about her?"

He asked subconsciously.

"Master, that woman found a private tutor for her baby some time ago, do you know who that person is?"

The master said it cautiously, observing the expression of the county magistrate while speaking, for fear that if he said something wrong, he would be angered.

That woman, Mo Ruyue, is now the eldest master's biggest heart problem. If he can solve this problem, he will become the person the eldest master relies on most in the future.

With the ability of the eldest man to act as a person, it is not a problem to want to be promoted in the future, and he can also benefit from it, which is the most important thing to him.

"That person is Du Zhongheng, the Du Zhongheng who was the number one talent in the world back then!"

The master took the initiative to reveal the answer to the question, and his answer made the county magistrate unable to react.

"You just said that she found Du Zhongheng to be a private school teacher for her children?"

The county magistrate asked again. He now has a very clear idea of ​​what the master told him about this news, and this news is really very timely and useful to him.

The name Du Zhongheng is simply ashamed of all the students in the world. Although he is the best in the world, he dares to take the risk of the world and openly challenge the rules of etiquette.

Now as long as his name is mentioned, which scholar does not spit hard, but Mo Ruyue actually invited such a person to be her child's private tutor?

She is cutting off her child's future!

The county magistrate smiled gloomily, and he suddenly realized that compared to framing Mo Ruyue, it seemed that making a fuss about the people around her would make her suffer more, and this opportunity was given to him by herself.

"Go, send a reliable person to investigate this matter from beginning to end. Before tomorrow night, I want a most detailed investigation report."

The county magistrate looked at the master, and emphasized it again: "You must find someone who is smart and reliable, you don't need that kind of stubborn green head, Mo Ruyue is not a good friend, don't break me when the time comes. thing."

"Don't worry, sir, I promise to arrange it properly for you."

When the master heard this, his face immediately burst into a smile, and he repeatedly promised to make a promise to the county magistrate.

Seeing that the master left to arrange manpower, the county magistrate touched the beard under his jaw, and felt that he was in a better mood.
