It's been a long night. Some people heard the sound of horses' hooves, some people saw the mountain fires on the horizon, and some people bumped into General Wei's return from suppressing bandits.

The sky was slightly white, and I don't know who was the first to run to the yamen and found that the yamen had been transformed.

The newcomer Zhu Xianling had a smooth accident, and he heard that he had been an official in Shangjing, and as soon as he opened his mouth, people couldn't help but be convinced. The one who suppressed the bandits was General Wei, who was resentful that most of the mountain bandits had fled in advance.

The coming of these two people undoubtedly relieved the people, and they finally did not have to worry about living their lives anymore.

In the study, Wen Zhesang withdrew after handing over everything to Zhu Zihai's deputy, and only took away a bookmark that Xie Yikou had made for himself in his spare time.

When I went back, I bumped into the winter snow that came back from the guest house.

"Miss Shui said that her things have been packed and she is waiting to go with the adults."

Wen Zhesang nodded: "That's good."

"Not good, not at all." Dongxue was in tears, she pointed to the front yard of the yamen and said, "There are many people here before dawn today, and they are very happy when they hear that the county order is going to be changed. But how could they forget you, Miss? How dilapidated and poor was it when you first arrived? If it weren't for you, the northern suburbs would still be barren, and the streets would be full of beggars, gangsters, and even those children, they might not have the opportunity to study! When you came, they all questioned you and despised you, but why could Master Zhu be loved without anything? It's not fair! ”

The noisy sound in the front yard came faintly, not at all like the appearance of Wen Zhesang when he was the county magistrate.

After all, people's hearts are not fair in the first place.

Wen Zhesang gently pulled her hand and took her back to the house, "As long as I have a clear conscience in what I do, I won't feel wronged." Moreover, as soon as Lord Zhu and General Wei came, they exterminated the mountain bandits, which made the people's hearts reassured, and it was normal for the people to love them. ”

Dongxue said anxiously: "But they ...... They don't know what the young lady is doing. ”

Wen Zhesang said with a smile: "It's a bad habit to generalize everything. Why don't we take a gamble? ”

Dongxue Nene: "Bet...... What to bet on? ”

"I bet that there are still people who think of me, and I bet that my efforts have not been in vain." Wen Zhesang's voice was not loud, and it just happened to fall clearly into Dongxue's ears.

Wen Zhesang didn't bring much with him when he came, and he didn't add much when he left to pack up. The day passed quickly, and the parting was only on the horizon.

The early morning dew had not yet disappeared, and several carriages were parked at the back door of the yamen. The officials were silent and helped Wen Zhesang and Shui Yanwei carry the cage onto the carriage. There were a lot of onlookers, but Wen Zhesang didn't show up, they only whispered, and didn't dare to attract attention.

"My lord just went back, I don't know when I will come back." Dongxue put the last book away, and couldn't help but sigh, "There are many people watching outside, but I don't think any of them want to say goodbye to adults." ”

"Yes." Wen Zhesang Mo said, holding on to the bookmark.

Some cheered the new prefectural ordinance, while others denounced them for being ungrateful.

In the good hall, several aunts put the scallion pancakes into the basket with sad faces, they got up before dawn today, and they wanted to send some good ones to Wen Zhesang, but after thinking about it, they found that there was nothing to get their hands on. And they can't take out the silver money and jewelry, and it is a vulgar thing, and giving it to an adult is an insult to an adult. A few people summed it up, and simply made scallion pancakes, making more so that adults could eat on the road.

At dawn, the dog suddenly took a shovel and went out, and when she came back, she had an extra jar of wine in her hand.

She said: "I buried two jars of wine in the year I gave birth to a dog, and it has been almost ten years now. Speaking of which, if it weren't for the adults leaving, I wouldn't be able to remember this thing. ”

Aunt Chun wiped her hands and said with a smile: "Yo, your eyebrows are twisted like twisted flowers." Hurry up and put away your crying and mourning look, you should make the adults happy when you leave, so that the adults will help us so much. ”

"Yes, too." The dog girl walked to the well and fetched a bucket of water, cleaned the wine jar, and held back to make a happy expression, but she gave up after a while, "I just can't figure it out, Lord Wen has done so much for us and Qingfeng County, how can there be some white-eyed wolves!" Yes, it is a good thing for General Wei to lead people to exterminate the mountain bandits, but what does it have to do with Lord Zhu? They just can't see that Lord Wen is a woman, and they can't see Lord Wen's goodness! Ungrateful stuff! ”

"What if you know? Be light, beware of the jar that will break you. Aunt Chun covered the basket, but she couldn't stop the fragrance of the scallion pancakes, "Let's go, it's too late for adults to leave." ”

The dog mother spat out and accepted her fate, "I know, this is coming." ”

The two hurried to the Yamen, and when they arrived at the Yamen, they almost thought that they were in the wrong place. I saw that the main gate of the yamen was deserted, but the remote back door was like a market. The onlookers who had been watching and pointing earlier were pushed to the outermost end.

"What's going on?" The two of them stood on tiptoe and couldn't see inside, so they could only ask someone.

The man said: "Lord Wen is majestic, the three schools are on holiday today, look, they are all here to see off Lord Wen, hey, I don't know what kind of big person she is."

This person spoke in a weird way, and the dog was angry for a while, if he hadn't been pulled by Aunt Chun, he would have really scolded him for being a bloody dog.

The two of them squeezed and watched, and it was easy to squeeze inside, and when they looked up, they saw a young man with a long body standing in front of Wen Zhesang, and said: "The master always said that adults are rich and rich, and they have both ability and political integrity.

Wen Zhesang loves talent, and seeing that he can be neither humble nor arrogant in public, he likes it more in his heart, but her pen, ink, paper, and inkstone are all put into the carriage, and it is not easy to turn. She sighed secretly and extinguished her thoughts.

She smiled and said: "Master Zeng also told me about you, you are a good child, if you are willing to work hard, you may not be able to make the gold list in the future."

The young man was overjoyed, he was still too immature to hide his thoughts, so his face was full of joy, and Wen Zhisang was also relieved.

Seeing the young man leaving happily, the dog mother hurriedly shouted, "My lord! My lord! ”

……

"Miss Wen is still okay?" In the front hall, Zhu Zihai leisurely drank tea and asked the officials.

The official said: "Wen Da...... The eldest lady and Miss Shui had already left the yamen, but the people who came to see them off blocked the road, and the carriage couldn't move for a while. ”

"Ahem...... What the? Zhu Zihai was taken aback, "What does it mean to block the road, is someone making trouble or is it ......?"

The official held back a smile and said: "My lord wants to go wrong, because Miss Wen is deeply popular with the people in the county, so the people are very reluctant to leave after her."

Zhu Zihai wondered in his heart, and smiled reluctantly: "I see, I heard that Miss Wen has indeed done a lot of things for Qingfeng County, but if it is delayed for a long time, it will not be good to miss the hour." Go and see again, and let the people say goodbye as soon as possible. ”

The servant nodded and left, and hurriedly walked to the back door to see that the onlookers had dispersed a lot, and the leading carriage had begun to move forward. He stood on tiptoe and watched the carriage go away.

"Miss, you have to cherish it!" Wen Zhesang said that he wouldn't let Dongxue follow, but he was really ruthless and didn't let her follow. Fortunately, Dongxue knows some people in the county, and although she can no longer live in Yamen, she is not nowhere to go.

"My lord, take care all the way!" The dog mother and Aunt Chun supported each other crying, and when they saw Wen Zhesang poking his head out of the carriage, they were busy wiping away their tears and squeezing out laughter.

Shui Yanwei also glanced out beside Wen Zhesang, and said with emotion: "Sister Wen is so popular with the people, I have a lot of reluctance to leave this time."

"There is a banquet in the world, not to mention that the emperor's decree has been issued, how can I resist the decree?" Wen Zhesang said. Even though she was unwilling and unwilling, she had to face the reality. And she believed that one day she would come back.

Shui Yanwei heard her say lightly, and she was a little puzzled for a while, she didn't seem to be able to give up easily when she was dedicated to entering the office.

"Actually...... Sister Wen has never thought that the emperor is very partial to Sister Wen, if Sister Wen insists on staying here, presumably the emperor will not agree. It's just that this time I summoned Sister Wen back to Beijing was a bit sudden, and I don't know if something happened. ”

Shui Yanwei saw Wen Zhesang put down the small curtains, her eyelids drooped as if she was thinking deeply, she thought that she had moved Wen Zhesang, but she didn't want Wen Zhesang to suddenly glance at her, and opened her mouth to say: "The emperor is the king, we are the ministers, and the disobedient lord who has not been a courtier since ancient times can have a good end." The emperor's secret letter only asked me to return quickly, and there was no mention of it next to me, and I was also very curious. ”

Shui Yanwei was ashamed when she heard this, and hurriedly explained: "It's because I think it's wrong, I just think that Sister Wen shouldn't just give up her ambitions, and now that I'm back in Beijing, I don't know if Sister Wen will have a chance to join the company next time." And in March next year, another show girl will enter the palace, with the emperor's love for Sister Wen, it must be ...... Sister Wen has great ambitions, and she has always been reluctant to be false and wronged with others, if she enters the palace, she will not be able to get out again. ”

Wen Zhesang was not interested, but laughed at her: "I thought that the biggest problem when I returned to Beijing this time was how to face Aunt Zhuang, after all, she was pregnant, and if she had a child, I am afraid that my status as the eldest daughter would not be able to be maintained."

"Sister Wen will be joking." Shui Yanwei also smiled and said, "If Sister Wen is really worried about this, she doesn't have to do it herself, she just lets out the words, there are people in the back house who let Aunt Zhuang have an 'accidental miscarriage'." ”

She looked at Wen Zhesang for a moment, trying to see clues from her expression, but unfortunately Wen Zhesang was not interested in what she said at all. She felt the carriage moving slowly, and she also knew that the escort was a team assigned by General Wei, and the reason why General Wei did this was most likely under the emperor's order.

No one in Shangjing didn't know that the emperor had a deep affection for her, Sister Wen, and even made an exception to let her take a scientific examination alone and let her become an official. She also heard some rumors in the harem, and those nobles and mothers in the palace were saying that it was fortunate that Wen Zhesang did not enter the palace, otherwise the emperor would have favored her alone.

Shui Yanwei used to believe in those words, but today she finally has a different opinion. It is said that lovers eventually become dependents, but if both of them are in love, then they can be dependents.
