Mei Xiaoren didn't sit still for long, and saw the man raise his head timidly, look at her tentatively, and then hang his head very quickly.

"The official is busy with official business, and he doesn't have time to spend with you, since you don't want to say, the official has to ask others." She glanced sideways slightly, and lightly ordered, "Come on, arrest Xiuyu and her girl to the official." ”

"It's none of Miss's business!" The man suddenly blurted out.

Mei Xiaoren raised his hand and motioned for the officials who were about to go to get people to stop. With her years of experience in interrogating prisoners, if such civilians are really weak-minded, they can scare first and then deceive, and they can more or less deceive something.

"Miss? It turns out that you are Xiuyu's house slave. Mei Xiaoren couldn't help but smile and applauded, "Sure enough, I am loyal, the old master has passed away, and I still don't forget to be loyal to Miss." ”

The man's face was full of panic, and his posture changed from squatting to kneeling......

"You still haven't revealed the truth, do you want the official to invite Miss Xiuyu to come now, so that your master and servant can reunite here?"

The man looked up at Mei Xiaoren again, and the hand on his thigh clenched his trouser leg, as if he was struggling in his heart.

Mei Xiaoren returned to the public office and saw that the courtyard outside the door was full of officials, and they were arranged in order of rank, each with their heads bowed.

She turned her head to look into the room, and there was indeed a god inside.

They had been separated in the market before, and she thought that Chu Yu had already gone back first.

In front of subordinates, business is done. Mei Xiaoren stepped in and bowed to the person sitting in her seat to greet her: "Prime Minister." ”

She looked up and saw a thick stack of official letters on the desk. Since beating her as the governor of the government, she will personally look at every official letter from the Beijing Government Bureau, she has only been gone for a few days, and the official letters on the table have been piled up into a small mountain, and Chu Yu is solving problems for her.

"How?"

Mei Xiaoren ordered the subordinates outside to step down, sit aside, and asked, "Is the scholar back?" ”

"Tomorrow."

"Mrs. Wei has returned to Shangjing, I still don't know what Mrs. is thinking now, some people can't wait to start rumors that Mrs. is going to reconcile with the scholars, fortunately the officials arrested people in time, otherwise this is simply adding fuel to the fire, even if they really separate, they are also angry." Mei Xiaoren propped up the low table on the side with his elbows, and his fingertips supported the corners of his forehead, "It's time to ask, then tomorrow,." ”

After the second day, Mei Xiaoren went to the south of the city and visited Miss Xiuyu.

She specially spent silver to prepare a lot of gifts, including expensive supplements and exquisite jewelry, and handed them to Xiuyu's maid Jin'er when she entered the door.

She and Chu Yu walked for a few days, and Xiuyu stayed quietly in this annex for a few days. She remembered the last time she saw Xiuyu, she still looked sick, and now her complexion has returned to ruddy, which makes her already good-looking face more and more beautiful.

When Xiuyu faced her, she was used to no longer hiding her face.

Mei Xiaoren didn't know if Xiuyu really believed her sentence 'My Fair Lady, the gentleman is good', and had let down her guard, or if she was trying to capture her, knowing that she had another purpose, but she would plan it to respond to all changes.

Mei Xiaoren and Xiuyu were still sitting in the same place last time, drinking the tea that Xiuyu had boiled.

Today the sky is gloomy, and the wind blows from time to time, and there is not much to enjoy.

She has been sitting silently, and has never taken the initiative to talk, but Xiu Yu couldn't help but ask her: "Are the scholars busy lately, I haven't seen the scholars for several days." ”

"The scholar was ordered to go to the imperial tomb with His Majesty to worship, and he has not returned yet." Mei Xiaoren replied peacefully.

"I see."

Mei Xiaoren smiled lightly, looked at Xiuyu and asked, "Does Miss Xiuyu really love the scholar?" ”

"Mei Gongzi ......" Xiuyu frowned slightly and lowered her eyes, "I...... I have a place in my heart, and I hope that Mei Gongzi can become Xiuyu. ”

She smiled and said: "I like to fulfill others, otherwise I wouldn't be kind enough to mention Miss Xiuyu, if the girl doesn't move out of the university scholar's mansion that day, as soon as the university scholar leaves, do you still have a way to live?" ”

"Xiuyu is sincerely grateful to Mei Gongzi, but Xiuyu also sincerely loves the scholar."

"But the scholar has a wife, and Miss Xiuyu doesn't seem to like the word fulfillment." Mei Xiaoren looked at the pond and sighed with his eyes in his eyes.

"Xiuyu...... Xiuyu didn't want to monopolize the university scholars, and when Mrs. came that day, Xiuyu also wanted to have a good conversation with Mrs., but Mrs. drew her sword without saying a word. Xiuyu frowned, shrunk back slightly, and said timidly, "Madam wants to kill me......

Mei Xiaoren had to admit that if she was a man, she would have to be bewitched by Xiuyu's pitiful appearance, so she blamed Mrs. Wei for being fierce, but the reason why Mrs. Wei drew her sword was not because her husband was infected in front of her by a little goblin.

"Madame drew her sword just because she saw you with the scholar?"

Xiuyu nodded.

"Mrs. Wei is the eldest daughter of Ding'an Houfu, she went to the battlefield with her father when she was a child, and her achievements are impressive, and Mrs. Wei can't tolerate only enemies in her eyes, especially arrogant enemies." The smile on Mei Xiaoren's lips still existed, he took a sip of fragrant tea, and said, "If you don't take advantage of the drunkenness of the university scholars and do something out of the ordinary, how can Mrs. Wei's sword not spare you." ”

Xiuyu was stunned and a little anxious, "Where did Mei Gongzi hear from you?" Did Mrs. Wei say something, Mei Gongzi, how dare Xiuyu. As she spoke, her eyes reddened, "Madame, this is going to ruin Xiuyu's reputation." ”

"Xiuyu, I told you a long time ago, the rumors outside are like rain, if you really care about your reputation, why did you go to the city that night, and why did you go back home with the scholars?" Mei Xiaoren then asked, "Do you really want to solve the problems of the university scholars, or do you want to make matters worse?" ”

"What happened that night was that Xiuyu was confused, but Xiuyu also missed the university scholar too much, and as for going to the university scholar's mansion, Xiuyu's body was not angry."

Mei Xiaoren immediately said: "You know that you are not in good health, and you still stand in the frost wind for a few hours, do you want to save people worry or add chaos?" ”

Xiuyu's eyes flashed with tears, and she bit her lower lip, "Does Mei Gongzi also want to blame Xiuyu?" ”

"Then you just tell me the truth, what do you want?" Mei Xiaoren sighed again, "You are for the purpose of your heart, but you can even risk your life." ”

Xiuyu turned her face away and sobbed softly, "Xiuyu said, Xiuyu just likes academics." ”

"Do you want to monopolize your so-called liking or destroy it?"

Xiuyu was stunned for a moment, and even the sobbing stopped, and slowly turned to look at Mei Xiaoren, "What does Mei Gongzi mean by this?" ”

"You said you wanted to have a good talk with Mrs. Wei, but that's not the case with your game." Mei Xiaoren slowly stood up, patted the folds on his clothes, and looked down at Xiuyu, who was still sitting on the futon, the corners of his lips were shallow, "There is no impermeable wall under the sky, what you think is foolproof is only what you think, so, do you want me to tell you about the things you do, or do you say it to me yourself?" ”
