Chapter 127 Charm Pill
Finally, Shen Mingzhu and the others unanimously decided to accept Ruan Yinxiang and Liu Qian.
Liu Qian volunteered to be the aide to the two candidates from the Shen family and swore to be loyal to the Shen family for life.
Ruan Yinxiang was arranged to be Su's maid, taking care of Su's daily life.
Shen Mingzhu had heard of the Xie family, the main family where Ruan Yinxiang used to live.
The head of Xie family used to be a first-rank official in the court. Later, he was framed by a villain and his entire family was raided. In a short period of time, the family collapsed and many families related to the Xie family suffered.
Mr. Wang had previously analyzed the case of the Xie family to Shen Mingzhu and others, and explained to them how to be an official.
According to Old Wang, the Xie family had a good family tradition, and the mistress of the Xie family was a very kind person with means. It was a pity that Prime Minister Xie stood on the wrong side and was implicated.
Shen Mingzhu felt that if her father and grandfather passed the exam during their trip to the capital, they would definitely have contacts with some official families in the capital.
She didn't care. As the mistress of the Shen family, her mother didn't understand the situation in the capital and was completely in the dark about it. When the time came, she might suffer losses when dealing with those wives of officials who were cunning.
Therefore, Shen Mingzhu decided to let Ruan Yinxiang follow her mother, and Ruan Yinxiang would become her mother's head aunt in the future.
As for Liu Qian, Shen Mingzhu saw Liu Qian's sincerity and felt that both her father and her grandfather would need staff when they became officials in the future.
Since there is a ready-made candidate, why not do it?
Shen Mingzhu made Liu Qian and Ruan Yinxiang take a loyalty pill and asked them to swear to be loyal to the Shen family in the future. Then she decided to take these two people to the capital.
As for the other women, leaving them on this desolate mountain to die would be worse than not saving them!
Shen Mingzhu distributed some of the horse-drawn and ox-drawn carts seized from the bandits to these women, and gave each of them twenty taels of silver and some food.
After the Shen family took these women to the nearest county town, they had to rely on themselves.
Shen Mingzhu felt that what they did was good enough, and she didn't feel bad about giving money to these women.
Hehe, who made her gain so much gold, silver and jewelry this time?
"Ding, congratulations to the host, the merit value has increased by 50, and a bottle of Charm Pills is rewarded."
Shen Mingzhu was speechless and said, "I killed so many bandits and saved so many people this time, why am I only rewarded with 50 merit points?"
"Also, what the hell is a charm pill? Who am I going to charm at such a young age?"
System: "Merit points are hard to come by, fifty is already very high. Besides, the two people you saved, Liu Qian and Ruan Yinxiang, will bring more benefits to your family in the future, right?"
"Also, if you don't need the Charm Pills, you can give them to your mother!"
Shen Mingzhu looked up at the sky in silence. This damn system could really say anything.
It only took Shen Mingzhu and her group one day to reach the county town and drop off the women there.
Shen Mingzhu and her friends stayed in an inn in the county town for one night and set off again early the next morning.
In Wuxi County, County Magistrate Zhang was overjoyed when he received the appointment document.
He hasn't even been in office for three years yet! And he's been promoted?
Because of his great achievements in the county, the emperor made an exception and appointed him as the fifth-rank co-magistrate of Wanxian Prefecture.
Zhang Guanghua never imagined that before his three-year term was over, he would be promoted four levels by the emperor as an exception.
Even Wang Zhubu was extremely excited and congratulated him immediately:
"Congratulations to Tongzhi Zhang for being promoted four levels in a row. This is unprecedented in our Daqian Dynasty. Tongzhi is the first one to do so!"
Zhang Tongzhi smiled and said, "I really have to thank the Shen family for this! The Shen family is really my benefactor."
Suddenly, he thought of the new magistrate and said to Wang Zhubu:
"Master Wang, call the new Magistrate Wenxueliang over here."
Zhang Tongzhi was very fortunate that the new county magistrate Wen was from the same faction as his father.
He had to instruct County Magistrate Wen to treat the people of the Shen family and Shenjia Village well, especially the nobles in the big house in Shenjia Village, and must not neglect them.
"I'm on the wave, on the wave, I'm on the wave..."
Shen Mingzhu was riding on the horse, humming a little tune, and was in a very good mood.
These days, they lived a very leisurely life on the way, as if they were out for a picnic.
On the way, when the team stopped, they went hunting, roasted wild goats, caught fish, and drank fresh fish soup.
She replaced the ordinary horse that pulled the carriage with her own Arabian horse.
The Red Hare horse can travel a thousand miles a day. In addition, she gave the horse spiritual spring water to drink and installed shock-absorbing devices on the carriage, so the carriage is very comfortable.
These horses were very smart. Not only were they very fast, but the ride in the carriage was not bumpy at all. They soon arrived at the border of Weizhou.
The Weizhou here is equivalent to the modern city of Handan, Hebei Province, and is very close to the capital Jingzhao Prefecture.
Along the way, there were several maids who knew martial arts, so Shen Mingzhu and the others had a very comfortable life.
What Shen Mingzhu didn't expect was that Aunt Yinxiang actually recognized her head nanny, Aunt Ruoming.
Judging from Aunt Yinxiang's appearance, she was very in awe of Aunt Ruoming.
Later, Aunt Ruoming said that she had seen Aunt Yinxiang in the palace.
At that time, Aunt Yinxiang was the head nanny of the Prime Minister's wife, Madam Xie. Aunt Yinxiang was a very good person in both character and ability.
Aunt Ruoming also praised Shen Mingzhu for her good luck, saying that she could save two talents at random in the mountains.
Shen Mingzhu disagreed. Her luck was not to be underestimated.
Who is Shen Mingzhu? She is someone who can find treasures whenever she goes out! Haha...
"Zhuzhu, the scenery here is beautiful. We can stop and rest for a while."
When passing by a river, Su was in a good mood and wanted to get off the car to rest for a while.
"call"
The Red Hare, which was leading the charge, stopped, and the rest of the horses behind it stopped in a well-trained manner.
Yinxiang helped Su get off the carriage, and Shen Laosan and the others also got off.
Shen Mingzhu used the excuse of going to the front to fetch some water, but in fact she was taking out mineral water from the space.
Shen Mingzhu lamented that it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.
She now has an exchange system and no longer drinks water from outside when in the wild.
When cooking, in addition to using mineral water, some primary spiritual spring water is also added.
When asked why she didn't add mid-level spiritual spring water, it was because Tang Ren and the others were traveling with them!
Shen Mingzhu had just filled the wooden barrel with water when she heard a cry for help from the front.
She pricked up her ears and looked around. One kilometer away, she saw several men in black assassinating a middle-aged fat man.
The fat man was wearing gorgeous clothes and looked like a very wealthy man.
Looking around the fat man, there were twenty or thirty dead people, and several horse-drawn carriages with the contents scattered all over the ground.
The fat man saw that the black-clad man's long sword was about to chop off his head, and he shouted anxiously:
"Help."
"Host, go save that fat man, and you will get special benefits."
"Huh? Can I get special benefits? I can have this."
As soon as Shen Mingzhu heard about the benefits, she became excited.
Just when the sharp sword was about to end the fat man's life, at that critical moment, a short arrow shot out and pierced directly through the sharp sword in the black man's hand.
The sword broke with a "crack" sound, and the man in black was furious.
"Whoever dares to ruin my good deeds, go and kill her."
As soon as the man in black finished speaking, countless arrows shot towards him. The unstoppable rain of arrows pierced the necks of the man in black and his subordinates directly.
The fat man thought he was going to meet the King of Hell and closed his eyes unwillingly.
However, he found that the attack from above his head suddenly disappeared, and the men in black who were trying to assassinate him fell to the ground and died with "bang bang bang" like dumplings.
The fat man looked in the direction of the short arrow and saw a pretty little girl riding a tall horse, looking at him coldly.
