"Your father is so protective of him!"

Lu Yanyi's tone was like ice: "My father has always been a good person, for fear that his eldest son will die, he has to redeem his eldest brother!" ”

"Will your brother still be able to go home?"

"Naturally, he didn't have the face to go back, but he had no livelihood, although I didn't see it, I heard that he knelt on the ground and cried, my father couldn't hold back a few words, and immediately took care of my family's business in the northwest, and never came back."

"Such a wicked person can still be at ease!" Qingwan couldn't help but be indignant.

Unexpectedly, Lu Yanyi's tone became calmer, and he seemed to regard this incident as a past-or-down incident, "His life is not bad, my father is afraid that I will retaliate against him, so he separates the northwest industry from his hometown and takes charge of it personally, and he is there to be regarded as a free life." ”

"Did you let him go too?" This is not like Lu Yanyi's personality.

"Am I that kind of person?" Lu Yanyi said as if laughing at himself, "My father naturally took precautions a long time ago, and told me that if anything happened to my eldest brother, he would kill himself immediately." I couldn't bear it, so I had to let him go first. However, good and evil are always rewarded, can my father protect him for the rest of his life? ”

When Qingwan heard this, as if she still had a plan, she didn't ask again, but said: "So you, just like everyone said, you broke your heart and left your hometown?" ”

"Yes," Lu Yanyi nodded: "Although it is over on the surface, after all, my father was seriously ill by anger, and Deyuan Hall was unmanaged, making a mess, and I took over the family business before I was fifteen years old." But my father soon got better, and since this incident, I naturally did not want to stay at home anymore, and when my father was able to take care of things, he traveled all over the world, and now he finally has some inheritance. ”

He didn't elaborate on how many industries there were, and Qingwan didn't want to know: "Then why did you go back later?" ”

"I guessed you asked." Lu Yanyi smiled, "If it weren't for the fact that my father was seriously ill that year, almost dying, and wrote more than ten letters urging me, I wouldn't have gone back. I will never forget the difficulties of my great-grandfather's entrepreneurship, nor my grandfather's wish to help the world and save people. ”

"So now you've decided to take over Deyuan Hall?"

"Yes," Speaking of this, Lu Yanyi lowered his head slightly, as if immersed in the memories of the good past, and whispered: "I can't forget that when I was a child, my grandfather personally took me to learn how to treat diseases and prescribe medicine, and taught me the principles of being a person and practicing medicine, and I can't live up to his old people's expectations." ”

This rarely revealed soft side made her heart tremble, and she was quiet for a moment before she came closer to him and said softly: "I won't tell you anything, I have also heard about some things about your family during these times in the county, but I didn't expect such complicated pain inside." Don't get caught up in the past, it's just a small side of the world, in fact, there are many, endless things. ”

Lu Yanyi raised his head, his eyes flashing with the emotion of understanding: "I know." In fact, my brother was also involved in the incident of that year, and I knew it in my heart, but there was no evidence, and now he has been keeping to himself for so many years, and I have not pursued it for the time being. So I only live in the shop now, and I don't go back often. ”

"As you just said, the dark room is a bad heart, and his eyes are like lightning, if he really did something, sooner or later he won't be able to hide it. But it's really chilling that the family is still like this between their own flesh and blood. ”

"This is how the world is," Lu Yanyi's expression was already as usual, and his usual cold expression was gone, and the rare true side that had just appeared because he touched the depths of his heart was completely gone: "I've been talking about it for a long time, but I haven't said it yet, why, I want to come to your village this time." ”

"When it's time to say it, you'll say it." Qingwan looked at him.

"This time, the county is also the top priority, and it has already alarmed the Jingzhong Tai Hospital and sent someone down~~"

As soon as he said this, Qingwan had a spirit on his body, and suddenly understood something: "Could it be that the person sent by ~~ is it~~"

"That's right," Lu Yanyi's tone seemed to be able to separate himself from others 108,000 miles away, and a chill hit people: "It is precisely because life is at stake that he attaches great importance to it, so he did not send an official, but sent a court judge-Bai Dingxing!" ”

"Sure enough, it's him!" Qingwan looked at his face, calm as water, without a trace of waves, so that people couldn't guess what was thinking in their hearts at the moment.

"The county magistrate knew about the relationship between my family and the Bai family, and in order to invite him, he took the initiative to let me follow Qin to inspect the county. But he doesn't know, that Lord Bai, I'm afraid he doesn't want to see me, right? ”

Qingwan also smiled slightly: "This is really a sycophant on the horse's leg, you are still a cloth cloth, Lord Bai must dislike your identity, Wang Xianling probably didn't expect this." ”

Lu Yanyi couldn't help but smile: "Since people don't want to see me, I don't have to go up." So I went to the state city and told the prefect to come to the village where the situation was serious. ”

"Prefect?" When Qingwan heard this word, she was suddenly surprised: "It's not with us"

"I know what you're going to say," Lu Yanyi said: "That prefect Xiang is now vacant in the ministry, and he finally won't be this parent official!" ”

Qingwan didn't know anything about this news: "What? ”

"Do you remember that time in the restaurant, when a housekeeper came to the Xiang Mansion and said a few words, that Xiang Gongzi immediately restrained a lot?"

Qingwan nodded hurriedly: "I naturally remember, I haven't been able to figure it out, what is going on?" ”

"Actually, I didn't know it at the time, but I always seemed to be unable to let go, and after asking for several days, I finally understood. It turned out that the master of the Bai family had just been transferred to the Ministry of Officials, and when the Xiang family got this news, it was when they asked the Bai family for fear of offending people, so they were in a hurry to send someone to stop the young master of his family. It's ridiculous that it was a loss in vain, and after a few days, Governor Xiang went to the capital to see Bai Shilang, and hurriedly mentioned my family, not to mention that it was okay, but it made the Bai family unhappy and made a mess. ”

Thinking of the embarrassment of the prefect, Qingwan couldn't help laughing: "Then what happened to the prefect?" ”

The corners of Lu Yanyi's mouth sneered: "How can an official like this who is powerful and good luck let him get away with it?" After leaving the Bai family, he still wanted to drill camps everywhere, it just so happened that I had a close friend, who was a protégé of Bachelor Yang, and just went to Beijing, so I told these things again, he was also a loyal and upright person, and immediately told the teacher, Xiang Governor's Mansion was still kept in the dark, and the top issued a approval, and the officials were set to wait, and it was difficult to make a comeback in three or five years. ”

"Didn't you say," Qingwan remembered something, "didn't he follow the path of Li Ge Lao?" ”

"Elder Li Ge has just been deposed because of his mistakes, and his backer is useless."

Qingwan breathed a sigh of relief, and let out a trace of doubt: "The officials are waiting? Then if there is a vacancy somewhere, won't this surname have to be an official again? ”

"You don't understand this, nominally it's a vacancy, how can it be so easy? There are only a few official positions, and I don't know how many people are waiting, and how many people can't wait for twenty or thirty years. In addition to the old Li Ge of this surname, he has no backer, it turns out that the position of the prefect still spent a lot of money and effort to get it, and now, Bachelor Yang has lost his good impression of him again, who else can think of him? ”

"I see," Qingwan said, "Actually, this is all cheap, and he should be asked!" has been an official for so many years, and I don't know how much prestige I have put on, and how many people's fat and ointment I have looted! ”

"I also told him about it, but he said that he could not find any definite evidence for a while, and it was difficult to convict. Hengzhi has lost his official position now, and in a few years, he will have to sit and eat empty, and he will not be arrogant. ”

"Anyway, you have also done good deeds for the people on this side, and you finally don't have to be angry with that surname anymore."

"I just haven't been able to find the right time, but fortunately, my best friend is in Beijing, and it is a good opportunity." Lu Yanyi said, "When you came to Deyuan Hall to look for me that day, it happened that I went to the state city, and when I came back, I heard the shopkeeper Zhou mention it." ”

"You don't know, I heard that you left in a hurry, and my heart is full of thoughts. In addition, my father had just been sick, so it was like frying in a pan of oil. ”

"The brother in the yamen brought me a letter, saying that he was going to send me to follow the Qincha, I was worried that the time would be delayed, and it would be difficult to refuse, so I didn't stop for a moment, and went to the state city to see the prefect, and decided to go down to the village, and when I returned to Deyuantang, you have already returned to the village. However, this time I will be able to see it every day. ”

At this moment, the moon was covered by a cloud, and in the heavy night, his demeanor could not be seen clearly, but Qingwan could hear that when he said this, there was a profound tone.

"Now that the tense is so bad, I'm afraid you have to be busy every day without touching the ground, and you still want to see it!" Qingwan actually had a trace of worry: "Your uncle will embarrass you when he comes this time?" ”

"He can't wait to talk to me, how can he still take the initiative to contact?" Lu Yanyi sneered, "Then you can put a hundred hearts!" I have already told Chen Lizheng that I will eat at your house every day from now on. Don't go and eat with them. ”

Qingwan was stunned, looking at his indifferent expression: "This~~"

"What," Lu Yanyi's tone was a little unkind, and he seemed to be smiling, "Are you afraid that someone will gossip?" ”

"No," Qingwan didn't know what to say for a while, in fact, there was nothing else between her and Lu Yanyi, and it was normal to entertain Lu Langzhong from the county seat for dinner, but it was still a little sudden.

Seeing her like this, Lu Yanyi was a little annoyed: "Do you think you've lost your face by being with me?" Or do you think there's something wrong with that? ”

She rarely saw Lu Yanyi's serious look, and she felt a little sorry for him, so she hurriedly said: "No, I don't mean that, I just think that if you leave other Langzhong, will it seem too abrupt." ”
