May Fall in Love with You: "Oh no, the streamer hates betrayal the most, not to mention betraying her with a bunch of confidential drawings."
Xiyanqiao: "(ˉ ▽ ̄ ~) Tsk … How is this betrayal? She has a boss, so she's a spy. If she doesn't care about her boss but works hard for the streamer instead, that's abnormal, isn't it? However, this operation is indeed disgusting. "
Although the salted fish were always complaining about Jiang Pengji's bad luck, if she really encountered something that didn't go her way, the salted fish were even more furious than she was.
The streamer in front of them is their five million salted fish coach. No one can bully her except them! "
Tangled Pegasus: "Sigh, am I the only one worried about Zhang Ping and the other two? Although this was done by a spy, they are also responsible for their negligence. The missing drawings are most likely a military secret. These charges are probably not easy to get away with. "
Because Zhang Ping and the others were technical geeks and engineering students, they rarely appeared in front of Jiang Pengji, and the salted fish rarely saw them. Even so, the salted fish still quite liked the three, and there were also spontaneously organized fan groups among the people.
Zhang Ping and the others made a big mistake, and the salted fish could not help but feel worried for them.
When Bai Ning and the others pleaded for mercy, some salted fish also echoed and pleaded for mercy. Some salted fish even suggested crowdfunding to reduce the punishment.
However, a few salted fish bosses saw it clearly.
Yin Yuejia Zhuge Qinmo: "Not to that extent. The charge of inadequate supervision can be serious or minor. It all depends on the streamer's choice." Zhang Ping and the others did not collude with the spy, and the streamer has been vigorously supporting technological research and development. She will most likely be lenient. "
While the salted fish argued endlessly, Jiang Pengji also made a statement.
She fined Zhang Ping and the others a year's salary. It was a small punishment but a big warning. At the same time, she asked the three to reflect on their actions and settle the score when they returned.
For three highly paid personnel, this little punishment was really just a drizzle.
Bai Ning secretly heaved a sigh of relief and stopped pleading for his daughter, lest it backfire and make the lord hate him.
He changed the topic at the right time and turned his gaze to the spy named Shi Zhong. He must catch him and punish him.
Jiang Pengji said expressionlessly, "How can it be so easy to catch him and punish him? We still don't know who Shi Zhong is working for. "
Even though Feng Jin, Xu Ke, and the others had immediately sent troops to capture them, they were too late. The golden period had long passed.
Because there was no progress in the pursuit, they could only quickly order the various checkpoints to pay attention to suspicious people.
They would rather catch a thousand wrongly than let one go!
When Shi Zhong's news reached Jiang Pengji, there was no news of the spy anywhere. It was as if he had vanished from the face of the earth.
Everyone could only speculate which faction Shi Zhong belonged to based on the clues left behind.
Shi Zhong's case was very serious, but Jiang Pengji was at the frontline. She had no extra energy to look for a needle in a haystack.
After discussing for a while, everyone dispersed. Wei Ci took a stroll outside and returned.
Jiang Pengji said, "Aren't you burying your head in the sand? Apart from a few people with bad eyesight and a few people with no brains, who doesn't know that you and I have been in cahoots for a long time? If you go out for a spin and come back, it will give people the feeling that you're hiding something and make them suspicious. "
When Wei Ci heard the words' hooking up and committing adultery ', he immediately felt that his lord needed to take up some cultural lessons.
"I know that person called Shi Zhong."
Wei Ci coughed softly and briefly explained the reason for his visit.
"What? You know him? Why didn't you say it just now? "Jiang Pengji knew the reason after thinking for a while." It's inconvenient to say? "
Wei Ci knew him but it was inconvenient to say it. The only explanation was that he knew Shi Zhong in his previous life.
"It's indeed inconvenient. Although we don't have any interaction in this life, we met a few times in our previous life. I know a little."
In this life, Wei Ci and Shi Zhong did not have any interaction at all. He could not possibly use the excuse of 'calculating with his fingers and observing the sky at night' to fool people.
He continued, "Shi Zhong's ancestral home is in Zhongzhao Maozhou. Because of his inelegant appearance and short stature, he was rejected to become an official."
In this era, one could not become an official just by having talent and background. It also depended on one's height, appearance, physical disability, and skin that was exposed … In short, if one did not look good, he would not be qualified to become an official. He could only be an ordinary person for the rest of his life. Even if there were other ways to become an official, he would most likely not be put in an important position. He would be mediocre for the rest of his life and would not be able to stand out.
Yes, the world that valued appearance was that cruel.
As a member of the club that did not meet the standards for looks, Shi Zhong's experience was naturally bumpy. He first sought refuge with the local gentry family in Maozhou as a guest. Because he was ugly and had no ability, he sat on the bench for a year. They did not want to keep a freeloader, so they tactfully chased him away.
Shi Zhong could only look for another family. Finally, under the recommendation of a friend, he entered the Wei family in Bianzhou and became a guest.
"The Wei family in Bianzhou? Isn't that the birthplace of your ancestral home? "
Wei Ci nodded and replied, "My ancestor was indeed a branch of the Wei family in Bianzhou and finally settled in Langya County. However, the branch in Langya County moved back to Bianzhou 10 years ago in order to protect the descendants of the family. This is also a way out. "
In her previous life, Wei Ci followed them to Zhongzhao at that time. In this life, he rejected it and stayed in Langya County with a few servants.
Jiang Pengji nodded and did not interrupt.
Wei Ci continued, "The Wei family in Bianzhou have many handsome men. With Shi Zhong's looks and talents, he became a guest under the Wei family. One can imagine his situation."
Jiang Pengji looked at Wei Ci's face. She deeply agreed with the phrase "the Wei family has many handsome men."
"In that case, the person who sent him to be a spy is very likely to be your elder brother?"
Jiang Pengji remembered that the Wei family was considered a first-class gentry family in Bianzhou. A few years ago, the Wei family's status was not as high as it was now. They had no right to order the Wei family's guest to be a spy. After thinking about it, she found a possibility — Shi Zhong was sent by Wei Qiong!
"My lord's guess coincides with mine," Wei Ci said. "In fact, Shi Zhong was one of my elder brother's men in my previous life."
Of course, Shi Zhong did not have the opportunity to be a spy in his previous life.
When their emperor attacked Zhongzhao, Nie Liang had already knelt down. His elder brother Wei Qiong had been depressed for many years and passed away before he was 50.
"What abilities does Shi Zhong have?"
Wei Ci smiled and said, "He doesn't have many abilities. He just has a good memory, good handwriting, and looks honest on the outside. My elder brother in my previous life took a fancy to this. That's why he let Shi Zhong stay by his side to help organize the documents. Occasionally, he would write and correct some chores. Shi Zhong has never stood out in his life. His mother has a stubborn personality. She chased away a few daughters-in-law and insisted that her son marry a good one … "
Jiang Pengji frowned. "Who did Shi Zhong marry in the end?"
Wei Ci said, "General Bai Ning's only daughter, Bai Yuexia."
"How can that be? I don't have much contact with Bai Yuexia, but I know that she has a strong temperament. How could she fall for such a person? "
