She asked hesitantly, “Is there really no possibility of forgiveness? If he donated all his assets to the Imperial Court, wouldn’t it still be impossible?”
Ming Zhiyan was sitting up straight. He looked straight into her eyes, and with a serious face, he said, “Miss Jian, I know that he is your friend. You can’t bear to see him being sentenced for his crimes, but his mistakes are his mistakes. In my place, the laws of Great Wei will never make an exception for anyone. He will be sentenced the same way. His assets will naturally return to the hands of Great Wei after he is sentenced.”

Ming zhi Yan interrupted her, “Miss Jian, this matter is not a matter of whether I want to save him or not. I won’t be biased for anyone. I didn’t immediately arrest him because I haven’t found enough evidence for this matter. I still need to make a decision.”
!!
Jian Qingqing calmed down after being shouted at. She sat there in a daze and suddenly had an idea. She asked, “Brother Ming, can he make up for it?”
Ming Zhiyan looked at her in confusion. “Huh?”
Jian Qingqing was excited by the good idea that she had thought of, she said, “Isn’t the salt now coarse and unpalatable? It also has a bitter taste. What if he knows how to make fine salt? Salt as white as snow and as fine as flour! It has only a salty taste and no other taste. You only need to put a little bit of it in the cooking! Isn’t this a great achievement! Can this be used to offset his crime?”
Ming Zhiyan’s face was serious, she asked seriously, “How did you know he has this kind of recipe?”
“Ah?” Jian Qingqing was stunned and said weakly, “He doesn’t have it, but I do…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMing Zhiyan knew that she had a lot of secrets, he just did not expect her to say it so openly. He did not know whether he should say that she was heartless or that she trusted him too much, but he was more willing to believe the latter.
He thought for a moment and said, “Would you be willing to give such a great credit to others? If it were to be said in your name, you can even ask for the county head’s position without any problem.”
“Ah?” Jian Qingqing was shocked. She did not expect this prescription to be so powerful that it could actually exchange for the county head’s position. One had to know that in this ancient era, the positions of scholars and farmers could be said to be worlds apart. With the county head’s position, at the very least, she could do whatever she wanted in this small Shifeng County, and no one would dare to offend her family.
Thinking of this, she was a little conflicted. This was really a great temptation.
Ming Zhiyan saw her changing expression, he felt that it was a little funny. He deliberately said, “Have you thought about it?”
Jian Qingqing was conflicted for a while, but in the end, she sighed, she said, “Then give the credit to Brother Lin. Right now, he needs it the most. Isn’t it just the position of county head? I can earn it back myself in the future! I have more talent!”
In fact, this was just a method to pick up people’s wisdom. No one knew who came up with it. The inventor had long been buried in the long river of history. Who would remember who the inventor was after a few hundred years or a few thousand years? As long as it was good for the people, the credit would be the same.
Ming Zhiyan saw that she had strong confidence. He smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll help you with this. Oh right, do you have that fine salt now?”
