Chapter 85: It's not just Lin Yueqing
Old Madam Xu smiled and shook her head.
"Mother doesn't leave, this time my mother is with you, last time you were demoted to Lusu Town in order to send your mother out of the city and delayed saving people, you were finally transferred back from Lusu Town, the good days have just passed a few days, if there is really a flood this time, my mother will stay in the city, and appease the women and children in the city for you, how to get a good official reputation for you!"
Xu Xiaoshou was anxious when he heard this.
"Aren't you messing around, there is a lot of way to restore your official reputation, how can you joke with your mother's life." As he spoke, he looked at the official guards on the side, "Quick, send the old lady away!" ”
Old Madam Xu saw that she was stubborn, so she sighed helplessly.
"Okay...... I'll go. Saying that, she was about to leave the main hall, but suddenly stopped again, suddenly looked at the official guard and wondered, "Lord Wu is here, what about Qi Xuan?" Why hasn't she come back yet? ”
The official guards on the side reacted when they heard this.
"By the way, Lord Wu said that Miss Qi Si went back to Kyoto first, and said that the lady of the Duke of Qi was sick and asked her to go back to serve the sick!"
Saying that, the official guard touched his head and said embarrassedly.
"The subordinate just called the master in a hurry, and forgot to tell the old lady about it!"
Old Madam Xu's face darkened when she heard this.
This Qi Xuan stabbed such a big basket for her Zhizhou Mansion, and she didn't even give an explanation, so she didn't say hello and left, didn't this pot obviously deduct it on the head of their Xu family!
Knowing this, she would never have indulged her Qi Xuan's nonsense, but now she is really stealing chickens and rice.
Xu Xiaoshou didn't care about it when he heard this, he just said.
"It's okay if she leaves, she is delicate and expensive, if something happens, I don't know how to explain to the Duke of Qi!"
Saying that, his clothes were already neatly dressed, and he stepped forward and stroked the shoulder of the old lady Xu.
"Mother, don't think about it, it's not the first time I've encountered this flood, the embankment upstream of Lusu Town was reinforced several times last year, even if it was like the last time, it may not be able to bear it, and it's not so easy for this water to flood Linjun City!"
Old Madam Xu looked at Xu Xiaoshou worriedly when she heard this.
"You must pay attention to your own safety, arrange for others to save people, and you must not be in danger!"
Xu Xiaoshou nodded when he heard this.
"My son knows, Lord Wu is still waiting, I'll go first!" As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeve robe and walked quickly outside!
Xu Xiaoshou's figure disappeared at the end of the tall banana tree after a while.
When the official guard saw him walking away, he immediately asked cautiously.
"Old lady, why don't we leave now?"
Old Madam Xu withdrew her eyes from looking at Xu Xiaoshou's departure direction and nodded.
Xu Xiaoshou hurriedly walked to the outer hall, Wu Youzhong was anxiously pacing in the hall, and when he saw Xu Zhizhou coming, he hurriedly stepped forward.
"Lord Thorn Shi!" Xu Xiaoshou saluted.
Wu Youzhong hurriedly helped him up and said anxiously.
"At this time, don't salute!"
Xu Xiaoshou looked at Wu Youzhong, only to see that his eyes were red and his eyes were black, and he looked very anxious!
"Wu Tingshi doesn't need to be too anxious, how many floods and floods have we suffered in Linjun City in the past hundred years, and it doesn't stand still, besides, you are a dark river, maybe it is the river that has risen, and ...... Even if there is really a flood news, isn't there still a lower official here, I will send people to open the sluices in various parts of Jiujiang, even if the wild water comes, it can be diverted out! ”
Wu Tingshi's face was still very gloomy when he heard this, and he sighed deeply tired.
"I'm looking for Xu Zhizhou, not only for this matter, but also for one thing, which is more important than these!"
Xu Xiaoshou was a little puzzled when he heard this.
"What could be worse than this backwatering of the dark river?"
Wu Youzhong slowly tightened his hands, and it was a little difficult to speak.
"When the dark river poured down, people were locked underwater!"
Xu Xiaoshou was shocked when he heard this.
"Lord Thorn Shi, you mean that you locked Lin Yueqing underneath?"
Wu Youzhong nodded with a worried face.
Xu Xiaoshou's heart trembled when he heard this, although he was still a little happy that Lin Yueqing had killed him, but this week's family knew what to do!
However, this person was not killed by him, and when the Zhou family blamed him, he simply put all the blame on the Duke of Qi, saying that he was coerced, and he shouldn't do anything to him!
Xu Xiaoshou is planning to do so.
Wu Youzhong spoke again.
"Not only Lin Yueqing, but also those mountain bandits!"
"Mountain bandits?" Xu Xiaoshou immediately understood, and hurriedly clapped his hands and stomped his feet, "How did you kill so many people!" What kind of bandits are those straw bales, there is no big case in hand, not to mention, those small cases are nothing more than stealing chickens and dogs, and there are no two of them! ”
Wu Youzhong said with a bitter face when he heard this!
"Didn't I think that they kidnapped Lin Yueqing, who could know that they had no criminal record?"
Xu Xiaoshou sighed weakly.
"It's not a secret, a few years ago, Qingyun Mountain suppressed bandits, and the lower officials almost took all the bandits there, didn't I demote and transfer back the year before last, I just wanted to have more political achievements to save face, and I happened to meet them who fled to Linjun City, so I hired them to let them dangle in Qingyun Mountain, and occasionally pretended to harass the people, and I also wanted to find a way to suppress the bandits and win people's hearts."
"This time Lin Yueqing made a fuss that my family Yu'er hid in Qingyun Temple, I was going to let them scare and scare Lin Yueqing, and punish her well, who knew that they were good, not only did they not succeed, but they all turned against each other and went to the Lin family as slaves, if you say that they kidnapped Lin Yueqing now, who will believe it!"
Hearing this, Wu Tingshi rubbed his swollen temples.
"This mountain bandit has become a good citizen, and the death row has been poured again, not to mention that it is a big crime to use the death row of the previous dynasty without permission, my bandit has become a murderer, and it is over!"
Xu Xiaoshou looked at Wu Tingshi's anxious look, but he sneered in his heart, his eyes turned slightly, and he stepped forward to comfort him.
"You are Qi Gong's protégé, he will never fail to save you!"
………………
King Lin looked deeply at the words on the bamboo paper, and his heart was full of uncontrollable thoughts.
He thought that his resurrection from the dead was a miracle, but God really listened to his repentance day and night, and only gave him another chance to be redeemed!
Thinking of this, he suddenly hesitated again.
If it is really Yueqing, how should he deal with himself?
If he reveals his identity, tell her.
How much did he regret that he had a dispute in the Star Picking Tower and accidentally injured her, telling her that he had not been provoked in the mausoleum, and that those hurtful words when he left were all false, if he said that he still loved her, respected her, believed in her, and was deeply attached to her.
Will she believe it? Will you forgive!
And if she believed...... Forgive, can he forgive himself?
The pain of betrayal, the hatred of overthrowing the country, how fierce and huge, as long as you are open and honest, can the knot in your heart really be solved?
He was suddenly a little scared, afraid that Xi Zhao would find her, afraid to see her, afraid that the resentment and sorrow that she would have in her heart when she saw that Changming, who was no longer called Da Yue, would be like the vine flowers of the Xici Palace, spreading to cover her original appearance, burning the fire, but the spring breeze was born again, and it could not be removed.
