Chapter 323: Joy but Ignorance
"That's what you said." Gu Ziyuan bowed slightly, pondered for a while, and then replied thoughtfully, "You also know that you have made mistakes, even if I forgive you, the people will not be convinced, and now there is only one best way for you." ”
"Yes, what is it, Your Highness just inform the lower officials." Prefectural Order.
Gu Ziyuan continued: "Report the matter of this crackdown on bandits to the imperial court, you can not mention me and take all the credit, but the previous crimes must be admitted in person, and you must not deliberately cut corners, only in this way can I plead with the emperor for you after returning to Beijing." ”
The county commander begged: "This, isn't there any other way, Your Highness, this is the iron rice bowl of the lower officials, if the emperor knows that I did that kind of thing, can he really forgive me?" ”
"The emperor does not forgive you is only secondary, the important thing is whether you can sincerely admit your mistakes, so that the people of the county can see your sincerity and reflection, and only then can it be regarded as a real atonement." Gu Ziyuan said slowly.
"The lower official understands, it's just ......" The county magistrate felt guilty, and he didn't know how to speak for a while.
He has been an official for a long time, and he only knows how to enjoy glory and wealth and oppress good people, but he never knows what it is to admit mistakes.
Seeing his unwillingness, Bai Rong couldn't help but say: "The people's will is the supreme, if you don't even understand such a simple truth, it's no wonder that you have come to this point, we know that you or a ghost has gone astray, since you have the opportunity to change, why don't you admit it?" ”
The words and truths that the two of them can say are also clearly explained, and if the county order is obsessed, it will not be able to change him.
In the end, the prefectural order didn't say anything, and left with a hesitant face.
Regarding the matter of the county order, Bai Rong began to worry: "If this county order is not reported to the court and has been delayed, what should we do with him?" ”
"Take him to Beijing with me." Gu Ziyuan said categorically.
"It's not good, if he makes a fuss, we'll have to clean it up for him." As she spoke, she suddenly saw a familiar snickering smile on Gu Ziyuan's lips, and she reacted, "You tease me again." ”
"You believed it yourself." Gu Ziyuan said with a smile.
Bai Rong's eyes lit up slightly, and he had an idea: "Or, let's go to his study and steal a copy and send it back to Beijing?" ”
"Not a bad idea, if you can imitate his handwriting
, but now it is difficult to find such a person. Gu Ziyuan said.
Hearing this, Bai Rong entered into thought again, no matter what, this county order cannot be easily forgiven.
Gu Ziyuan frowned again when he saw her, so he persuaded softly: "That's it, don't think about it yet, wait until tomorrow to see his movements, and you will know what to do next. ”
"Okay, listen to you." Bai Rong nodded, turned to look at the smooth floor, and complained a little, "It has to be re-paved, and it's all to blame for the county order." ”
Gu Ziyuan watched her re-pave the mat with a smile on the side, and his heart warmed, "I'll help you." ”
The two worked together, laying out the quilt briskly, Bai Rong clapped his hands and smiled: "I didn't expect us to have such a tacit understanding even when doing housework." ”
Gu Ziyuan smiled: "Why do you think this is?" ”
"It must be because of my ingenuity, and I have even comprehended it with you." Bai Rong's proud and confident speech made both of them laugh.
Gu Ziyuan looked at her smile gently, and thought, please have more time like this.
"By the way, I suddenly remembered something." Gu Ziyuan narrowed his eyes and said.
Bai Rong asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Gu Ziyuan smiled lightly: "At today's banquet, it seems that an officer and soldier have talked to you, what did he say to you?" ”
"No, nothing, just a few words of thanks." Bai Rong was also embarrassed to mention that someone wanted to ask her to play, and always felt that Gu Ziyuan would tease her about this matter.
"Oh, that's all?" Gu Ziyuan didn't believe it and raised his eyebrows.
"Otherwise, what else can there be, I don't know him well." Bai Rong pretended not to think so, and turned his head to clean up his bed.
After being silent for a while, Gu Ziyuan asked, "If someone else asks you to cook food for him, will you also cook it for him?" ”
"It depends on who it is, cooking is a hassle, and I don't have that much heart to take care of so many people." Bai Rong changed the topic, "Don't say so much, you go take a bath, I'll have to take my turn later, I'm tired today, I want to go to bed early." ”
Gu Ziyuan was just about to say something more, but the words were locked behind the door, a little speechless and choked, and finally had to sigh.
Soaking in the water, Gu Ziyuan was a little deflated, he just wanted to know if Bai Rong was
It's just that she's so good to everyone, and the thought that she really might do the same thing to everyone he knows makes him feel like he's not getting any closer.
He tried to enter Bai Rong's heart, but Bai Rong always didn't take it seriously, and he didn't care much about his gentleness and thoughtfulness, and if he continued like this, he couldn't help but be a little anxious.
If you wait until you arrive in the capital, you will definitely meet many excellent men, a special woman like Bai Rong, if the men have the opportunity to get close to her, they will more or less admire and appreciate her, when he thinks of this, Gu Ziyuan is a little displeased.
He doesn't like people staring at his sweetheart.
However, on this path of pursuit, he seems to have to work harder to let her see her heart.
When it was Gu Ziyuan's turn to take a bath, Bai Rong naturally wanted to avoid it, and went out into the courtyard outside to enjoy the night view, feeling inexplicable about what Gu Ziyuan suddenly mentioned just now, how did he feel a little strange recently? But I can't say it.
Although the matter of the county order can be seen step by step, Bai Rong was worried that the county order would expose the existence of Gu Ziyuan on the fold, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that she couldn't let such a thing happen, so she looked left and right and found a piece of land covered with sand.
Bai Rong wrote two words with a stroke of a branch, thought about it, and added three more words, "If there is something, show up quickly".
After a while, there was no reaction at all, and Bai Rong muttered strangely: "Could it be that they all have other tasks today?" ”
As soon as the words fell, several masked figures flashed by, and the sound fell very quietly behind Bai Rong.
They respectfully half-knelt down and whispered, "Miss Bai, the little ones are here." ”
Bai Rong was slightly frightened, turned around and patted his chest: "I thought you weren't there, but the next time you come out, can you appear in front of me?" ”
"Yes, I'll be sure to pay attention next time, I'm sorry." The subordinates then asked in unison, "What is Miss Bai looking for us?" Please do not hesitate to tell us. ”
Bai Rong instructed: "That's the case, I need you to intercept any notes sent out by the county order, erase all the information and texts about Ziyuan, and then send the notes out, and they can't be discovered by others, can you do it?" ”
Several of his subordinates looked at each other, a little hesitant.
Bai Rong asked, "What's wrong, is there any problem?" ”
