Chapter 39: "Business Trip"
Maybe he was afraid that he wouldn't understand, so Kaoru Tantai patted his leg very calmly. Ye Chi looked at her and felt that something was ingrained in her mind, but what was even more tragic was that she herself didn't realize it in the slightest.
Kaoru Tandai's so-called "like" may be very different from what he thought, so he looked down at the dog again, still comfortably rubbing into her arms.
Ye Chi frowned, hugged the dog, the dog was obviously unwilling, kicked wildly on him, and finally couldn't stand it, jumped into the water with a "poof", and swam up from the other side.
Such a big movement led the boatman over, looking at the paw prints on Ye Chi's body, he immediately understood, and hurriedly leaned over to apologize: "The guest officer is really sorry, this dog doesn't like to be held by men, even I can't touch it." β
Ye Chi waved his hand and smiled to indicate that it was okay, but Kaoru Yutai couldn't help but laugh. When the boat was down, he put his arm around her and let her rest on his shoulder.
Kaoru Tantai's head was gently pressed by him, she didn't like this posture very much, which made her feel that she couldn't dominate, but when she smelled the breath on Ye Chi's body, she was not so repulsive.
Although this man did not know any martial arts, he could do much more than her, she was used to being alone, and she was used to rushing in one direction as soon as she decided on something, and at first she did not like his slow son, but later she felt that he was very dazzling, like a bright light in a long road.
The night is like ink, the flickering candlelight illuminates the surroundings brightly and hazy, and the sound of water is slow, which seems extra ethereal at night.
"Kaoru. He looked up at the sky, "It's better if you stay here, I'll come back to see you." β
Every time he mentions the things in the capital, he always shows a helpless expression, not too sad, just helpless, as if there is always a lump in his heart that can't be dissolved.
Kaoru Yutai was obviously thinking about something, and answered for a long time.
***
Three days later, it was the day when Ye Chi went on a business trip, and the original plan was to go for half a month at most, but due to the long distance, and the cause of the incident still needs to be investigated, the return date was set in a month later.
Kaoru Tai had also temporarily taken over the position of state pastor before, but Ye Chi's longest departure was only ten days, and it passed after staying up, and the burden on her shoulders suddenly increased, and she was not used to it.
The eldest princess of Yasuhara also went back to the capital later, but because Ye Chi was not there, she left Su Yu temporarily, so that if something happened, she would have a response. She is the only one left in her generation in the royal family, and she has been doing whatever she wants since many years ago, and she lives casually.
"Kaoru girl. On the day of leaving, the eldest princess pulled Kaoru to the side, and her always high-spirited face rarely showed a little sadness, "Qingyuan's life is not very good, you have to treat him well." β
Kaoru Yutai was stunned.
In fact, after listening to Chang Su's words, she also had a lot of guesses about Ye Chi's past, but he was always very open-minded, and occasionally he was stupid, which made her unable to guess.
ββ¦β¦ Bad fate?"
"Hmm. "You have seen the wounds on his body, they were all from childhood; β
The princess didn't finish her words in the end, after all, in her opinion, the past was in the past, and she didn't want to reveal the scars of Ye Chi in front of Kaoru Tatai, but there were some things that this little girl needed to understand.
"Good. Kaoru nodded with her, didn't ask much, and answered softly.
For a few days, Kaoru Yutai was very busy, and Ah Yao would not enter school until after spring, and he often came to accompany her during this time, and occasionally Peaches would come over to borrow books.
Kaoru Tai was really unfamiliar with Ye Chi's collection of books, and she didn't know how he classified them, and Chang Su also followed Ye Chi to the indigenous area, so she didn't even have anyone to ask, so she had to lead Peaches into the book pavilion and advised: "You can read it here, just tell me which one you like." β
Momoko nodded sensibly and smiled shyly: "Thank you, Lord Tantai." When will Lord Ye come back?"
"Not sure, he's going to be far away this time. β
Momoko was sullen for a while, "Is Brother Changsu too?"
Kaoru Tantai replied, "Yes." β
After she finished speaking, she left Momoko in the library and went to deal with things alone. In the past, she thought that the governors of one party were all-powerful, but after staying by Ye Chi's side for a long time, she realized that this position was not as simple as she thought, and ambition may not be able to get things done; for the emperor, politics takes precedence over performance, and this situation is difficult to change in a short period of time.
She lay down on the desk for a day, her neck was a little sore, and then Master Zheng came in and said, "My lord, there are people outside who want to see you." β
He didn't say his name directly, so it seems that he just didn't know him. Kaoru Yutai was a little puzzled, nodded and said, "Let him come in." β
The person who came was a middle-aged man in his fifties, and he was carrying a big box, and he was not a native of Qinzhou with an accent, but Kaoru Tantai had an impression of this person, and he should be a businessman who had come from other places to settle here, so he saluted her respectfully, and looked around with some confusion.
"The grass people are Fan Yuan, a miner in Qinzhou. I don't know what Lord Ye is today...... Why not?"
Hearing that he was asking knowingly, he was inexplicably a little vigilant in his heart, "Lord Ye has sent out, I am responsible for all the things in the state capital, and Mr. can tell me anything about it." β
"I see. Fan Yuan smiled with her, "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that a kiln in a mine of grass people is about to expire, so I routinely come to the government to renew." β
As he spoke, he handed over a letter and pointed to a box of things behind him.
Kaoru Tantai had a guess in his heart, and silently opened the letter.
Although the management of industry and mining is not so strict that it is submitted to the central government, the coal mining kiln must be approved by the local government, and this kiln license is not "about to expire", but has expired, and it seems to have been ordered to be suspended.
Fan Yuan looked at the young female governor in front of him with a smile on his face, and presented the box, "Your Excellency also knows that you can't start construction without a kiln license, and I hope that your lordship will approve it, these are the wishes of the grass people." β
Kaoru didn't pick it up, and looked at the date on the kiln photo, which was at the end of last year, which means that at least two months ago, the coal kiln had been shut down. Did he look for Ye Chi before, and how did Ye Chi respond?
"Mr. Fan should bring these things back first. She put the letter away and motioned for the master to send off the guest, "The official of the coal kiln will investigate again, and he will respond to you at that time." β
Fan Yuan frowned, his smile froze for a moment, but he still took the thing away.
The master said that he didn't know about the affairs of the Fan family, but he only knew that this person had indeed come to Ye Chi once, and it seemed that he had more than once, but it can be seen from the fact that Ye Chi did not give him the kiln photo, and this matter was not discussed.
I don't know if I don't know, this coal kiln is actually one of the few illegal operations under the name of the Fan family, it was once closed by express order, and then reopened for some reason, and it didn't come to the state capital until the kiln license expired, but Yechi never responded positively.
Kaoru Tai wasn't sure what Ye Chi was thinking, so she directly led someone to seal this place according to the law, and she refused to accept all the things that Fan Yuan had repeatedly sent to send.
She vaguely felt that Ye Chi had some concerns about this matter, but the storage of these illegal coal kilns was itself a pest and should not be tolerated, and she also knew that Ye Chi was not a bribe-taker.
Half a month later, Ye Chi sent a letter from there, saying that it was all right, but it would take some time to resolve the conflict, and as for the work of the government, it was really hard for her.
Although the sentence is short, the handwriting is very familiar. Kaoru Yutai smiled unconsciously, causing Su Yu, who was passing by, to come over and ask with a smile, "Is it a letter from Ye Chi?"
She nodded, in fact, she didn't know much about this person, but she probably guessed from the words of Ye Chi and the eldest princess that Su Yu's fiancΓ©e was stimulated when she was a child, so she fled before getting married, and she didn't ask too much about the specific things.
"Su ...... Hou Ye. She changed her words, "Is Ye Chi the only friend of yours?"
Su Yu was stunned for a moment. He had thought that Kaoru Tandai would ask him something, and with her eyes, he wouldn't see nothing, but he didn't expect it to be such a question.
"Ye Chi is not like me, he is very popular. He smiled brightly, his eyes bright, "We are the two most out of place in Taixue, when I was punished by my husband, he was the one who solved the siege for me, plus my aunt also likes him, and over time I will get acquainted." β
Kaoru Tandai looked at him. She naturally saw that Ye Chi was popular, but she rarely seemed to have a heart-to-heart with people, there were always only a few people around her, and it seemed that only Su Yu really understood him except for Changsu.
Including her, no one knows what his past is.
"Thank you. She nodded her head twice and continued to write.
Su Yu didn't leave immediately, stood in place and looked at her for a while, feeling that the Zhou Cheng in front of him, who was quietly reviewing documents, was completely different from the little girl who used to be strong in force, both in terms of attitude and way of talking, and couldn't help but smile: "You don't have to be discouraged, you hug Ye Chi more, and he will tell you everything." β
Kaoru didn't hear that he was joking, and nodded seriously.
In the evening, she yawned, fell asleep on the desk, and woke up again, I don't know when, she felt that someone had put a dress on her, and the footsteps were familiar, and she should not be a stranger.
When she looked up, it was Yuan Ziling standing beside her.
"You're awake. He smiled at her and pointed to a food box in front of her, "I've got some food for you at this late hour." β
Kaoru Tai happened to be hungry, so he rubbed his eyes and nodded, and after only taking a sip of tea, he took a sip of tea and ate it with a www.biquge.info heart. Yuan Ziling sat next to her and looked at her quietly, and suddenly spoke for a long time: "You should pay attention to the Fan family's matter, a businessman who can do such a big business must have a backstage." Even Ye Chi is playing Tai Chi over there, you must be careful. β
She had certainly thought about that possibility before. Fan Yuan's matter is not over, and he was spared prison after being fined, but he still wrote several times in a row as if he was not afraid of death, but she rejected it.
Ye Chi reminded her that sometimes even the government will be in a state of weakness, and it is not a good thing to be too direct.
"I see. β
She probably had a plan in her heart, and after saying goodbye to Yuan Ziling, she went straight home, noticed something when she was walking on the street, deliberately took a little more detour, and finally got rid of the person who was following her, and hid in the alley to prepare to arrest the two.
However, before she could do anything, a carriage came to a stop in front of her in another alley behind her. Although this carriage was ordinary, the clothes of the people who drove it were very valuable, and it was obviously not an ordinary family, and it was even possible that it came from the court.
The curtain was slowly lifted, and sitting inside was a young man in a brocade dress, but he looked very mature, about thirty years old, and smiled politely at her, but his eyes were quite playful, and he did not care about her vigilance in the slightest.
"This is Lord Tantai, I don't know if Lord Ye Qingyuan can be in the mansion? β
