Xue Chongxun originally didn't want to pretend to be a benevolent monarch who worries about the country and loves the people in front of others, he is not interested in one or two civil criminal cases at all, and he doesn't have to worry about these things at all. But since it has happened, it is still necessary to deal with it with a positive attitude...... You can't admit that this kind of thing is justified against the general righteousness, right? He looked at the gentle streamer of the setting sun on the surface of the river, and then realized that he had come all the way to the present, and he was no longer angry or moved by the previous anger, and his mind was as calm as the river. Sure enough, no matter what path you take, whether it is a bad person or a good person, you will slowly lose your edges and corners.

After a while, two drenched sergeants escorted the strong man over, and one of them was angry because he was almost shot with an arrow, and when he came over, he kicked the man in the crook of the knee, shouting, "You are very good, you don't kneel when you see the Son of Heaven!" The man knelt down on one knee in pain, and wanted to struggle to get up after a big kick of fire, but as soon as he moved, two bright knives waved over: "It's better to be honest." ”

Xue Chongxun took two steps forward and asked, "Don't worry, what's going on." ”

"I just want to get my newly married daughter-in-law back!" Zhuang Han said, he probably hasn't been to court, and he forgot to introduce himself, but fortunately, no one cares about Xue Chongxun and doesn't want to know, it doesn't matter if he is called a cat or a dog. It seems that sometimes prestige does need some guards of honor and pomp to show it, although Xue Chongxun is the Son of Heaven with great power, this man is not very afraid, it is estimated that he has not yet gone to the court to face the pressure of the two rows of officials with wind and fire sticks.

The strong man thought for a while and then said: "This afternoon, an official came to the village with a team of officials, saying that the county town should rush to repair the city wall, and some women in our village should be recruited to cook for the servants, and my family was also ordered. My daughter-in-law is beautiful, and many people are worried about ......"

As soon as he said this, some of the people around him couldn't hold back, so they laughed out loud, because they saw that the emperor was serious, they hurriedly held back, and finally laughed. The strong man's face turned slightly red, and he continued: "I was worried and followed to the county seat, and sure enough, I saw that other women were sent to the city, but my daughter-in-law was sent here by a team of officials, where is this to cook?" ”

Xue Chongxun looked at the county order, and the staff student on the side hurriedly said: "I was originally here to cook, but there are people in the capital, and we don't have enough people here, so we temporarily transferred one or two people to help." This kind of easy conscription is a good thing, otherwise do you want to go to the border to repair the city or go to the river to repair the embankment? ”

At this time, Xue Chongxun already roughly understood what was going on, from the "beauty" in the mouth of the strong man to the many twists and turns made by the magistrate, he could guess it. However, he didn't want to expose the lie in front of everyone and the people, after all, the best way was to maintain the prestige of the government, and after a while, if he sent people back, there would be nothing to do, and he would take his own officials to sacrifice the flag at every turn. So Xue Chongxun said: "The government recruits women for cooking and miscellaneous labor, and generally recruits old women, since you are so worried, why don't you let the old women in the family take up the service?" ”

The strong man said: "The old mother's legs and feet are inconvenient, and there is no other way." ”

Xue Chongxun said: "If you are ignorant and reckless, I will not care about you." The people have not broken the law, how can the government detain people? Go back and wait, and the people from the village will go back when they finish their work. He said he was no longer interested, and turned to leave.

The official on the side frightened: "Why don't you thank Da En soon?" If it weren't for His Majesty's benevolence, you would have been sentenced to ten capital crimes on the spot! ”

When everyone saw Xue Chongxun turn over and get on the horse, they all left the strong man and followed, leaving the Wei River one after another. Xue Chongxun walked for a while, pointed at the county order and others with a horsewhip: "You guys are so self-sufficient." ”

The county commander and others hurriedly fell into the dust, and sent Xue Chongxun's horse team away and did not dare to follow. waited for the horses to leave, and the staff hurriedly apologized: "Please punish the public, I didn't do a good job...... But at that time, I really didn't expect that man to follow, I really didn't expect it at all! ”

The county magistrate remembered that the staff had just opened his mouth with the correct attitude of "it's all my responsibility and nothing to do with others", and said in his heart: "It's hard to have a complete thing in the world, and you can't blame it all." It was a thrilling scene just now, but now it should be fine, forget it. ”

The staff said, "What should the woman do?" The county ordered: "Of course let it go, don't you think it's troublesome enough?" The staff coughed lightly, and it was hard to say that he only looked like he wanted to say and stopped: "Since it is reasonable to recruit the people, it is not appropriate to put them back immediately, and when the people come, let her do some light things such as serving tea and water, which can be regarded as servitude." ”

As soon as he said this, the county magistrate immediately understood the meaning, so he said quietly: "Where the people are, I'll go and see." ”

The two of them then came to the kitchen of the Shenji Department, and saw the woman who had washed clothes by the river, and the county magistrate really felt plump and wonderful at a glance, more than twice as strong as the young concubines he bought, and he had confidence at the moment. The woman recognized the staff next to her, so she bowed her knees, and the county order was even more happy, and she praised: "I know how to count etiquette...... Don't stay here, go take a shower and change your clothes, and then go to your majesty's room to do some cleaning and other work. 陛xià is the son of today! If you are more well-behaved, maybe I will take you back to the palace to live a fairy-like life like brocade clothes and jade food, and then I will be glad to reward you with some red silk to make clothes to wear. ”

The two officials were afraid that she would not be willing, but the woman agreed with a "um" very simply, which saved a lot of words.

…… When Xue Chongxun returned to the yamen of the Shenji Department, it was already dusk, so he planned to rest in the official office for the night. After dinner, the program arranged by the bureaucrats turned out to be a puppet show, these plays are tired of watching in Daming Palace, and he didn't believe that the local standard would be higher, so he immediately went back to his room to rest without interest.

Night falls but the time is still early, Xue Chongxun has never been used to going to bed too early, only Sanniang is around, but she is a person she sees almost every day, and after watching it for a long time, she naturally does not have that anxious mood, and when she sleeps for a while, she can be asked to sleep next to herself. There was nothing left and right, he simply asked Sanniang to grind the ink, and wanted to write down some ideas for repairing the wall.

Originally, I planned to give Xiao Dan a face-to-face lecture tomorrow, but now I have written it clear that I can go back to Beijing directly tomorrow morning, and I have been out for a few days to put aside the preparations for the imperial examination. Now he felt that he had almost done enough to go back and do it.

In terms of repairing the city wall fortifications, the main consideration is to build the Great Wall fortress in Hebei, and it is of course very important to reduce the consumption of national strength, otherwise the taxes and conscription will be too heavy, and in case of local rebellion, it will cost money to transfer troops to quell the rebellion, and it will be unprofitable to toss in the country. At this time, there should be no problem with the brick-burning technology used to repair the wall, and the ceramics can be burned, not to mention the bricks. Xue Chongxun also heard that when there was no food in the disaster year, the hungry people stole the soil from the cracks in the walls of the city pool to eat, because the glutinous rice juice was used in the soil that bonded the masonry. Those people really don't know how to swallow the soil, and the suffering in the world can't be recorded in the history books, and even Guanyin can't save it.

As an important material for this kind of civil engineering, Xue Chongxun is of course easy to think of cement, but he can't remember how modern cement is produced. After recalling for many days, he finally remembered another method, vaguely from a book about European voyages, using clay, limestone, and slag to mix and calcin, and the materials produced can also be used, as for whether it is called cement or not, I don't know. He hasn't seen the effect with his own eyes, or he can only use the old method, let the Shenji Department open a kiln to test and figure it out, anyway, this yamen was established to develop military equipment, cement can be used to repair fortifications and city walls, and it is also a kind of military material.

He thought for a long time, and when he saw that the inkstone was already filled with ink and a pen on it, he picked it up and began to write. Sanniang was used to such a silent life, so she found a stool to sit down in a daze, and glanced at Xue Chongxun from time to time. Whenever Xue Chongxun was doing something serious, he was really serious.

After a while, I heard someone knocking on the door, and then a woman came in, lowered her head and walked slowly in front of Xue Chongxun with a teacup, and put the teacup on the table. Xue Chongxun looked up, and the first thing he noticed was that the woman in front of him had a full chest, and she was someone he didn't know. He was stunned, looked at it again, and felt that this woman's skin was smooth and quite good-looking. I probably stayed here all day, except for Sanniang, who faced a group of men, and suddenly saw a young woman with a soft body, which was very different.

Xue Chongxun suddenly said: "You are the 'Girl in Raccoon'?" ”

The woman was also stunned, and then understood something, so she nodded and whispered "um", what etiquette was naturally forgotten, she looked a little nervous.

Sanniang stood up from the stool with an expressionless face and said, "I'll go out and take a look around." "Leave it alone, turn around and leave. Xue Chongxun didn't stop him, he glanced at the woman in front of him again, put the brush into the inkstone and dipped it in ink, and continued to write.

Seeing that Xue Chongxun was busy working, the woman in raccoon clothes looked a little at a loss for a while, and stood crampedly beside her. Hearing the woman call her "Xue Lang" just now, she felt strange, didn't the county official say that this person was the Son of Heaven? She quietly looked at Xue Chongxun for a while, and saw that he was wearing linen clothes, and the lining in the collar was white cotton, which was not a very expensive material. In the past, cotton cloth was expensive because it was rarely produced in the mainland, and it was rare and expensive to ship from Xizhou, but in fact, the cost of planting cotton to spinning cotton was much smaller than that of silk.

However, she quickly remembered that the royal family of the current Great Jin Dynasty was no longer surnamed Li, but surnamed Xue. Besides, the people in the government don't dare to say who the emperor is, if it's fake, isn't there a rebellion? When I looked at Xue Chongxun again, I found that he was dressed ordinarily but very neatly, the clothes were ironed like new, and the white collar lined was even more spotless. At this time, she felt that Xue Chongxun's face really exuded a kind of nobility.

Xue Chongxun wrote for a while, put down his pen and turned back and said, "Your husband came to the Shenji Department on a raft tonight to find you, but you don't have to worry, we didn't hurt him." In the future, tell him not to act recklessly like this, he will suffer. ”

"Thank you...... 陛xià Kai Grace. The woman in the raccoon felt very uncomfortable when she said such a thing, and she was crepe.

Xue Chongxun was also silent for a while, and said, "You raise your head and I'll take a look." The woman in the raccoon raised her head embarrassedly, but she didn't dare to look at Xue Chongxun when she looked elsewhere, and her white face became red.

Seeing her like this, Xue Chongxun showed a hint of a smile, and slowly reached out to pull her wrist, she didn't resist, only lowered her head again. Xue Chongxun suddenly sighed: "Life is a lone wanderer." ”

The woman didn't understand why he sighed, nor did she understand the meaning, so she didn't know how to respond, she just stood still, and let Xue Chongxun pull her wrist. Xue Chongxun pulled her closer, and then stretched out his other hand to touch her breasts, the bulging breasts in front of him really made him quite interested, and he seemed to think of some nervous and cramped times in the Daming Palace, just like the cramped woman in front of him.

A slight touch of his finger left a dimple in the soft bulge, which was very soft. At this time, it is indeed fashionable to put things on the chest from time to time, and most of the things that have risen by visual inspection are genuine. He could feel the tendons on the woman's wrists, and he could feel her nervousness. But she didn't resist, Xue Chongxun had seen many women, and of course he knew what it meant...... doesn't even look like a half-push and a half-refusal, is it still a little difficult to discern her attitude?

He stood up and pulled the woman to the cork chair he was sitting in, and she sat leaning over and not knowing what he was going to do, with a blank piece of paper in front of him that had not dried and was scrawled with small scribbles. This position is the position when Xue Chongxun wrote just now, she sat here and just looked at the things placed in front of her, usually sat down and touched the needle and thread, but she rarely saw this thing, but she knew a few words on it, such as "one", "person" and the like.

Xue Chongxun lifted the brush on the inkstone again, walked to the copper basin where he washed his hands, put the pen in to wash, and then took a large piece of silk to wipe the water on it, and the fine piece of silk was suddenly spotted. He didn't speak when he did trivial things, and the woman in the didn't know his intentions, let alone how to speak, so she could only sit there and watch him. He seems to be quiet and unhurried. The atmosphere was a little dreary, the candles on the lampstand were not bright, and the flames flickered so that the already dim light flickered.

She wanted to get up to help, but Xue Chongxun said, "Just sit and don't move." ”

After waiting for a while, he finally came over with a clean and dry pen, walked straight behind the girl in raccoon, stood for a moment and went to untie her clothes, her chest suddenly rose and fell slightly, and one hand gently pressed on the soft breasts. At this time, the women did not change much in dress and habits from the Tang Dynasty, and the folk women actually did not have the right to wear low-cut "slow skirts and half-exposed breasts", and that kind of seductive clothing only existed in the noblewomen and the Qinglou. So Xue Chongxun loosened her belt, pinched a piece of cloth and gently pulled it down, and her shoulders and cleavage were exposed. She let out a soft "ah", and Bai Shengsheng's skin appeared in front of Xue Chongxun's eyes.

The woman said in her heart that the noble man is indeed very good at playing, and it is not at all like ordinary people who can't see the naked woman's skin and press it on the bed. But he took a brush and stroked it between his collarbone and neck, and he was very provocative. Then she also felt the tip of Xue Chongxun's tongue reach out to her ear, and a feeling of itching became very strong, transmitted from her ear to her whole body, she suddenly panicked, and her legs couldn't help but rub together gently.

Xue Chongxun finally threw the brush on the table, touched his hand from her collar down, pinched a hard grape with his fingertips, and whispered in her ear: "Have you tasted those words with your tongue?" ”

The woman in the raccoon cloth was so ashamed that her face was flushed, and she said in her heart that the royal family and nobles had fun was really very unimaginable. Such a "shameless" thing can be said without pressure, if others say this, she has to turn her face, but the person behind her is a nobleman, and people just like to play all kinds of tricks. She shook her head and said nervously, "No." ”

Xue Chongxun encouraged again: "Then why not try?" In life, you must have the courage to try. There is no one else here, God knows you know and I know. As he spoke, he took her hand into his robe and let her hold it, and the little hand with a little calloused palm trembled slightly. Xue Chongxun's other hand that reached into her clothes pinched the tip of her nipple lightly and heavily, and she could already clearly feel her breathing heavy......

…… The next morning, Xue Chongxun woke up, he was just awake when he sat up, his mind was still a little confused, and he turned around to see a strange woman sleeping on the bed, and remembered it for a while before remembering last night. He got up from the bed, and the wooden bed "creaked" for a while, and the woman on the bed still did not wake up, she estimated that she was too tired from tossing last night to be awake for a while.

The woman was lying on her back on the bed, with the quilt uncovered, and a breast room exposed without realizing it. I saw that the thing was naturally spread out around, as soft as water, and there was a cute red red bean on it, which was very beautiful. Xue Chongxun couldn't help but reach out and touch and play with it for a while, but she still slept like a pig, and he went to dress himself and was too lazy to wake up the woman.

The plan for making "cement" written last night was still on the table, and Xue Chongxun picked it up casually, and the ink on it had already dried.

Out of the bedroom, a group of officials hurriedly surrounded, naturally no one mentioned the matter of the woman in the clothes, Xiao Dan in order to show his execution of the emperor's will, specially reported: "Early in the morning, Weichen sent people to the nearest coal mine to get ore, which can be transported by boat from the water, and the construction of the coking coal kiln has also begun." ”

"Very well, there is also a plan for making 'cement' here, you can test it." Xue Chongxun stuffed the paper in his hand, "If there is any progress, report to the eunuch Yang Siqiao at any time through the Guò Beiya, and submit it directly to the palace." ”

Xiao Dan hurriedly said: "The minister should live up to the trust of His Majesty and complete the errand as soon as possible." ”G
