Maybe Tian Mi is so busy these days that she is a little dizzy, so when she sees Xuan Heng, she always feels that the two of them haven't seen each other for a long time.

After the sudden rain that day, for several days, Dezhuang is rainy, the rain washes the streets and alleys, lingers on the ground, the air is very humid, the cold wind passes through the streets and alleys, so that the people who have just been in the summer are all wearing autumn clothes.

In the backyard of the government, there is a gazebo, on the railing of the pavilion there are two oil-paper umbrellas at will, one is verdant green, the other is navy blue, and countless water droplets fall from the corner of the flying eaves, ticking and ticking, just like singing.

Hot tea was boiling on a stone table, and two people sat opposite each other on a stone bench.

Xuan Heng looked at Tian Mi's slightly misty eyes, smiled quietly, he carefully poured a cup of hot tea, naturally took her hand, let her hold the cup in the palm of her hand, and chuckled: "Listen to Xiaoxiao said that you have been busy with the bank recently, how is it, is the progress going smoothly?" ”

Tian Mi said: "Very smooth." ”

Isn't it? The government has Xuan Heng, the Supervision and Audit Department has A Qian, and the account bank has Xu Shi, that is, Liu Changqing, who was originally a little uneasy with her in the Tax Department, and because of the last Yunzi Sanghan incident, she was at a loss, so she didn't embarrass her too much.

This Dezhuang is really the door of the major yamen, and it is open for her.

Nowadays, everything that is her is smooth and can no longer be smooth.

Tian Mi lowered her head and took a sip of tea, tilted her cheek slightly, avoided the person's shallow, but unignorable gaze, and asked softly, "Didn't you say that the person in Yangliu Village found it?" How is it? ”

When Xuan Heng heard this, he fell silent for a moment.

Tian Mi waited for a long time and didn't hear a reply. turned his head, but saw Xuan Heng looking at the boiling tea, his dark eyes were deep and deep, his pale red lips were slightly pursed, and he couldn't smile.

She asked, confused, "What's wrong?" ”

"The man who was caught did not know anything about the account books." Xuan Heng's lips moved, his half-hidden eyes opened, he looked at the rain curtain outside the pavilion, and said loudly: "What he said about pickling things, in fact. It is related to Ah Qian. ”

Pickled things. Something to do with Ah Qian? Tian Mi frowned suspiciously, did not make a sound, and waited for him to continue.

Xuan Heng got up and walked to the edge of the pavilion with his hands in his hands. His eyebrows condensed slightly. Whispered, "Before." Don't you still doubt - Ruan Tiande is Ah Qian's only relative in this world, why did Ah Qian turn his back on him and come to help me. ”

Tian Mi frowned slightly. She also got up, and she gradually looked at Xuan Heng's smooth side face behind her shoulders - smooth, but it was not warm at the moment, and even a little tight, like an arrow on an open bow.

Tian Mi saw it in her eyes and didn't speak, just listened quietly.

"Everyone knows that Ruan Tiande came out of the palace and is a father-in-law." Xuan Heng's pale red lips pursed into a thin line, his eyes gradually became cold, and after a pause, Fang said: "Ah Qian is his righteous son, but not his only righteous son, Ah Qian has many righteous brothers and brothers, these people are used by Ruan Tiande in different aspects like him. ”

"But between them, they are not as close as brothers, on the contrary-" Xuan Heng pursed his lips, his eyes penetrated the rain curtain, and threw himself into the gray space, and said: "In order to hold a qiē in his hand, Ruan Tiande put his righteous sons in various positions well, that is, helping each other, restraining each other, and sometimes even fighting with each other, just like some foreign breeds raise Gu animals. ”

Witchcraft? It is said that the one who survives in the end is still the strongest, and feeds on the flesh and blood of his companions.

Tian Mi's brows were furrowed tightly, she didn't expect that the young man who looked like he didn't eat fireworks in the world was actually raised as a tool.

No wonder he is so withdrawn and reluctant to get close to people.

"Ah Qian, he ......" Tian Mi felt that she was always running out of words recently, and she wanted to say a lot of things, but she didn't even know what to say.

"Ah Qian was raised by Ruan Tiande since he was a child, and I heard that Changgong said that Ruan Tiande is still raising children like Ah Qian's childhood, these children, but if they are orphans that he fancies, they will be adopted directly, if they are not orphans-" Xuan Heng's eyebrows frowned, his hands in his wide sleeves were closed, and he looked at the young grass and trees that were destroyed by the rain, and said in a dumb voice: "Let him be an orphan." ”

Tian Mi's eyes widened instantly, looking at Xuan Heng's tense face.

Xuan Heng's whole person was tense, his back was straight like a sharp sword, and the sword couldn't come out of its sheath to hurt people, so he strangled himself.

"Xuanheng ......" Tian Mi stretched out her hand, covered Xuanheng's clenched fist, touched it gently, like a soothing pet, and looked at him with her moist amber eyes.

Xuan Heng's clenched fist suddenly loosened, he smiled sideways, pulled her slightly cold hand, put it in the palm of his hand and covered it, his expression was as usual, he looked at her and said: "Although Ruan Tiande is an old fox, Ah Qian was raised by him, how can he be inferior to him?" Ah Qian seems to be cold, but in fact, his heart is like ice and snow, very clear, how can there be anything pickled to hide from him? He was afraid that he had already understood a qiē. ”

Tian Mi has a deep understanding of this, Ah Qian is by no means the kind of person who is independent in the world, he is a person, and he is not lenient.

"So, is this a revenge?" Tian Mi blinked her eyes and tilted her head slightly to look at Xuan Heng.

Xuan Heng pondered for a moment, but shook his head and said, "I can't be sure." ”

Seeing Tian Mi frowning, Xuan Heng explained: "If it is hate, but when Ah Qian talks about Ruan Tiande, he is respectful, Ah Qian can't be fake, this should be true, it's just that he respects him, and it doesn't seem to prevent him from dealing with him." ”

Xuan Heng said, even if he was a little around.

Tian Mi raised her eyebrows, thinking - won't Ah Qian be a fake? But even Ruan Tiande didn't find out that he had different intentions. But the strange thing is that this fake and the other fake are not in conflict.

"Then, will Ah Qian be in danger?" Tian Mi raised her head again and asked softly.

Xuan Heng thought for a while, nodded and said, "Maybe." ”

This is supposed to be a contest, and any possible savings, all he can do is to keep in touch with him and strike in time when he needs to.

Tian Mi understood what he meant, and it was precisely because of this that there was a sense of helplessness in her heart - knowing that her little friend was in a dangerous situation, and herself. Not only can't he be pulled out, but he has to maintain this state.

Whether it's naïve or angry, at this moment, she can only be angry with the people involved.

She pursed her lips coldly and sneered: "I don't understand, there are obviously so many officials in the court, how can Your Majesty choose a father-in-law in the inner chamber to hold such a professional and important position." ”

It's not that she discriminates against her father-in-law, but she does different things in different positions, and puts people who don't match their abilities in such an important position. Just for the sake of supervision and checks and balances in the hearts of those in power. It's really ridiculous - how can he not think about it, he doesn't understand the things of his position at all, and how can he really find out that there is a problem in it, and take targeted measures to solve it. And do a good job of supervision.

She doesn't think there is anything wrong with the checks and balances. But she thinks that putting unprofessional people in a professional position. It's a completely wrong decision.

However, the truth is that the ages have come and gone. It seems that many emperors like to use eunuchs as inspectors, whether it is supervising the army, supervising taxes, and even in many other aspects, eunuchs are indispensable.

And among them, how much so-called evidence is conclusive, it is all false accusations.

Xuan Heng's silence did not make Tian Mi feel slowed down, she moved her hot hand, looked at him stubbornly and said, "Do all emperors think that eunuchs who have cut off their descendants will have no desires?" ”

Xuan Heng looked at the pair of accusatory eyes in front of him that seemed to be full of dissatisfaction, but were actually full of worry, smiled lightly, and said, "Maybe." ”

Tian Mi pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "However, the fact is that people who have no worries are acting more and more perversely, they have no shackles and no scruples, just to satisfy themselves, and their desires will be more inflated." ”

She turned her face sideways, pursed her lips and whispered, "Your Majesty doesn't know if you're really confused, or if you're pretending to be confused." ”

The reason why she said that she was pretending to be confused was purely because the orders given today were too arrogant, especially the increase in taxes, which she could not accept—it was not a sudden catastrophe, and the country was really difficult to support, otherwise, what must be solved by squeezing the people?

What Tian Mi didn't know was that what she knew was the tax, and there were many things she didn't know.

Xuan Heng knew a qiē in his heart, but it was precisely because he knew it too well that he would panic in his heart, so that he buried a qiē deep in his heart, lest one day it would ferment and explode.

Xuan Heng looked around vigilantly, and after not finding anything unusual, he withdrew his gaze, and did not say a word of warning, but tightened her already warm hand, and said softly: "Don't worry about it, Ruan Tiande, it's not been a long time coming." ”

Tian Mi looked sideways, but Xuan Heng was looking into the distance, she thought about it, lowered her head, and didn't ask again.

Xuan Heng reached out and combed the scattered hair on her cheeks, tested the temperature on her arm, felt the dampness on her clothes, and pulled her back to the table where the tea was boiling, adding more to the fire.

Tian Mi put one hand on the stone table, supported her chin with the other, watched him work diligently, and listened to him: "Miss Wang, have you gotten along recently?" ”

Yes? Miss Wang? Wang Fengxian? Xuan Heng suddenly mentioned Wang Fengxian, although Tian Mi was a little surprised, she still shook her head honestly and said: "No, she is under house arrest at home, what's wrong?" ”

"I was under house arrest...... Xuan Heng paused, groaned slightly for a while, worked again, nodded and said, "Well, there are still more months to leave, and it's time to make amends." ”

Tian Mi looked at Xuan Heng.

Xuan Heng felt her gaze, the corners of his lips hooked slightly, and he didn't continue, but said: "Mi'er, emotional matters, just do your best." ”

Is it good to do your best? Tian Mi looked at him, her moist eyes blinked, her eyes drooped, and she looked at the tea that couldn't stop boiling on the fire in a daze.

When Tian Mi went out, Tian Chuan, who had come to an end, happened to be going home to rest, so the sister and brother asked Xuan Heng to stop in front of the yamen, and the two went home together.

Tian Chuan felt that his sister didn't seem to be happy after seeing Brother Xuan.

"Why do you keep looking at me?" Tian Mi sat upright in her position, and asked Tian Chuan, who was blatantly looking at her half-paid, with a wooden face.

Tian Chuan, who owed his mouth, asked directly: "You quarreled with Brother Xuan?" No, Brother Xuan won't quarrel with you. What's wrong with you guys? ”

How can you always feel a little gloating when you hear this? Xiao Chuan didn't seem to want her to be with him Xuan, even though he had always admired that person.

"Don't bother with you, we're fine." Tian Mi turned sideways, turned her back to Tian Chuan, and deliberately said with a straight face: "It's just that I've been very busy lately, if you don't have anything particularly serious, I won't be too lazy to run here, if there is anything, I'll just drive Xiaochuan to pass a word on the night." ”

He also said that it was fine, but it was obviously something.

Tian Chuan curled the corners of his lips, but he was happy to see it, and he didn't ask the reason, he nodded very simply.

Tian Mi said that she was busy, and she was really busy, in the past month, she not only ran all the workshops of the Lin family, but also made full preparations for her bank.

The accounting room invited by the Lin family is not mediocre, and the account problem is not big, and the most important problem of the Lin family is the illegal operation of funds in related workshops-

There are many workshops of the Lin family, almost several production chains can be formed, and the raw materials of many workshops involve the purchase of raw materials from another workshop of their own family, and also involve the sale of their own other workshops.

Moreover, in the consolidated ledger of the Lin family, the transaction offset between workshops was also mishandled.

In addition, the internal control of the Lin family is not sound - the Lin family is a family business, and there are powerful relationships between personnel in many important positions, and there is no special regulatory body in the workshop to restrict the behavior of the management.

The Lin family's business is huge, and there are far more problems than these, and there are some that Tian Mi is not easy to meddle in at all - that is their own dispute. What she can do is to write all the problems she finds into the manuscript, and then discuss them with Lin Weiya, and give her suggestions or opinions.

As for what he is going to do, in this era when there are no auditors, let alone audit reports, she doesn't even have the right to issue a negative opinion or cannot issue an opinion, how can she influence the decision of the management of the audited unit?

The good thing is that Lin Weiya attaches great importance to these things, except for her own family problems, everything else has improved.

On the bank side, all of them are in intense preparations.

Therefore, Tian Mi said that she couldn't see it, and she really didn't see it, she worked hard, worked hard every day, didn't try her best, but did her best.

She hadn't seen Xuan Heng, but Xuan Heng had come to see her.

Xuan Heng didn't know that Tian Mi deliberately didn't see him, he saw that she was busy until late at night every day, and finally rested, so he also hoped that she could rest well, so he just watched by the bed every time, and didn't wake her up.

On this day, Xuan Heng sat on the edge of the bed for a while as usual, and when he saw that the person on the bed was sleeping soundly, he put down a sugar man next to her pillow and went back the same way.

When he arrived at the mansion, he just pushed open the door and stepped into the room. He didn't look nervous, but chuckled, "Here we are." ”

As soon as the words fell, the lights were lit in the room, and at the table, Lu Liang blew out the fire clip, held two letters in his hands, and asked him: "Both are from Kyoto, which one are you going to see first?" ”

Kyoto's reply has finally arrived. (To be continued......)
