67. Hope will eventually come to an end
"You are working hard here, and your family will naturally get the best arrangements to relieve your worries. Dissatisfied? It's okay, you can just say it. β
Got a complaint?
Dissatisfied???
Have it?
No.
β¦β¦
Silence, like the silence of water.
A group of people only heard from their family members that they had been taken to the Yamen of the Chief Minister, and that time was at the beginning of the strike boom, so how could it not be a threat? How is it not oppression? Who overlooked something for a moment?
The family members don't have any dissatisfaction at all, and they are all full of smiles when they talk about it?
was ready to make a belly of rhetoric, but she was easily disintegrated by a few words and collapsed, I don't know how to feel at this time?
To tell the truth, after Dongfang Yan came up, except for the strong rhetoric of suppressing the strike crowd on the first day, he really didn't do any unsatisfactory actions after getting along, and even ate with the workers to eat, not putting on a stand at all and not taking an official tone, how can it be seen that it is Miss Wang Du, who holds an official position? If you talk about it, it is really the most people-friendly.
What's more, five days ago, there was a sudden rainstorm and the river burst the embankment, and she silently climbed to the top of the mountain on the opposite bank to pry the boulder to block the breach, and almost planted herself on the cliff, which is obvious to everyone.
It seems that she is too silent, too calm, so that everyone temporarily forgets that this is the only woman among the officials on this trip, second only to the two responsible persons from the four rank inspectors. For a while, I forgot that she was the most recent, the most close to the people, and did no less practical things than anyone else, so that when a group of people were angry, she only dared to come here to ask a weak woman about her guilt and show her majesty, how shameful, how ridiculous?
And what are they doing?
At this time, she was speechless with anger, and suddenly died down, but ......
Even if they are wrong, even if they are wrong, and Dongfang Yan is so strong, he can't say a word to expose it, but he still has three points of dissatisfaction in his heart?
She seemed to change her tone suddenly, softened, who was the look of sorrow?
"I believe that everything I have done for you and Lord Luo is obvious to all, is it so sincere that everyone turns a blind eye? Just for that trivial matter, and your unreasonable speculation, you want to come here to ask the teacher for sin? β
Everyone looked at the iron-blooded woman and suddenly turned into a low voice that wrapped her fingers around her fingers and cried like a complaint, which suddenly caused everyone a sense of oppression that they were bullying the little woman......
If you say that you were dissatisfied with her straightforwardness before, there are still three points of anger left......
At this time, there is no anger at all!
Looking at her pale face, I couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
Who changed the harsh rhetoric?
The upright men are upright and bold in asking about crimes, but they have the heart to explain but are unable to do so?
Joke! Where can someone whose wife has never coaxed a girl coax?!
"Ah, Oriental girl......"
"Eh, Oriental girl, don't be angry! We, we ......"
"We just ask, nothing else, girl, angry, angry, pay attention to your body......"
A group of people looked at Dongfang Yan's face becoming more and more pale, and the slender figure was really like a delicate flower in the cold wind, and they were really afraid that if the tone was heavy, they would be able to knock this delicate flower off the branches, and more men suddenly appeared behind the wall, and they opened their mouths in a mess!
"Oriental girl, we know that we are wrong, don't be angry, we are speculating and misunderstanding the great grace of adults, it is our small belly and chicken intestines, it is our bad, eh, don't cry......"
Dongfang Yan pretended to cry silently, turned his back to everyone and refused to turn around, only waved his hand and said: "Okay, you go down, I won't tell Lord Luo about them, I can understand your feelings, since it is a misunderstanding, then forget it." β
The man was a little embarrassed, and he stopped talking.
At this time, during the lunch break, counting that Luo Xinghe and a few people are about to come back, do they have the heart to explain? I'm afraid that I'll run slower and bump into it on the spot!
The misunderstanding is solved, so naturally there is nothing to say, but at this time, I rashly came to disturb the recuperating Dongfang Yan, how embarrassed I was?
The men who were burdened with thoughts suddenly felt a dilemma!
It's not to go, it's not to go?
It's hard to choose.
Dongfang Yan lay on the table and waved his hand, "Okay, let's go back to work if there is no problem, I'm tired and want to rest......"
A dry man seemed to have just gotten down the stairs, smiled bitterly and exited the compound, and as soon as he got out of the gate, he fled as if he were away.
Li'er was secretly frightened, and there were less than ten people who asked about this matter head-on, and suddenly so many people appeared from outside the courtyard? Waiting for a result?
Li'er felt that her shallow martial arts were really difficult to even fight and help Dongfang Yan protect her face! Is it difficult for Miss to be so casual and uncaring?
It's really a great style.
As everyone knows, Dongfang Yan performed such a play, it was indeed a waste of a lot of energy, cold sweat broke out, only felt sticky and uncomfortable, at this time lying on the table, even waiting for people to leave without raising their heads?
Li'er was scared and stunned for a long time before finally noticing that something was wrong?
At this time, I thought of going to Dongfang Yan's side, only to find that she was about to soak her clothes with sweat? Hurriedly ran to the kitchen to serve medicine!
I have been drinking this medicine recently, and it is much better than the beginning, but Dongfang Yan's knife was too ruthless, and he picked out a big hole in his wrist, and the blood couldn't be stopped, Chu Fengyun looked sorry, and took a small bottle to continue......
To save whom?
It is conceivable how much price she paid to save Sima Xuan by using blood to lure Gu?
She didn't bother to mention it, but at this time she was hunched on the table, without raising her head, waving impatiently at the roof.
"Okay, fortunately, you can go back, it's hard for you to squat these days."
There is a wind blowing through the treetops, a rustling sound, a black shadow flashing, where is there still people?
She didn't care, buried her head in a light sleep, drowsy......
β¦β¦
In the study, there are people who report in a low voice?
There are even more people with a leisurely posture, holding official documents in their hands, listening quietly, and after listening to the report, it seems that the corners of their lips are bent?
"First raise and then suppress, suppress the initial momentum, and then pretend to be weak, and succeed in one fell swoop, Yan'er has done a good job, but it is really hard work, why are you disobedient? Isn't it much more convenient for me to push it down? β
Sima Xuan listened to the secret guard's report and muttered to himself, after all, he muttered a little.
"If this continues, isn't it all the right thing to pretend to be weak from the beginning? Why bother? β
The dark guard still doesn't seem to understand, what is suppressed first and then promoted and then suppressed? Why?
Sima Xuan raised his eyebrows and smiled.
"If you are angry, how can you have the heart to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade? Weakness alone naturally can't be suppressed, and if that arrogance is not suppressed, it is only afraid that the flames will burn the prairies, and it will be even more difficult to rebound. He shook his head and took the trouble to explain, "If you suppress your arrogance first and then persuade softly, you will naturally succeed a lot, this is that you are not as good as her, your mind is always not delicate enough, you still have to learn from her." β
Shake your head again at this time, but what are you doing in these places so delicate? Can't you rely on him? Is it so reluctant to rely on him for her? It's a tickle for your teeth! Love and hate.
"Did she say anything about Gu Jie? How exactly did Gu solve it? Chu Fengyun is so mysterious, if she hurts her body, he is really willing to do it? I don't believe it. β
The dark guard was stunned, remembering the whisper of Dongfang Yan that day, he muttered, and seemed to be a little puzzled?
"How is it possible to watch the same pain happen in front of your eyes?"
Sima Xuan twisted his eyebrows, "Did she really say that?" β
"I didn't really hear it at the time, but it was exactly what I said."
Sima Xuan was entangled again, his sword eyebrows frowned slightly, but he turned with three points of vinegar?
"Is there anything else you shouldn't hear?"
The dark guard was stunned for a moment, and then reacted-
The master's jealousy has been committed again!
Last time, the boss of the Fufeng in the Linwai Inn hurriedly went in to report the danger, as if he had bumped into something that should not be bumped into, and once he was asked by the master to go to the west of the city to get an official document, and then go to the north of the city to get a letter, and then help the adult go to the south of the city to buy a bag of candied fruit...... I couldn't take a break for several days in a row, which was really pitiful......
Now think about the tragic situation of the Fufeng boss, and now you have to rely on a crutch to walk!
Suddenly, the hairs stood on end, and the secret guard shook his head again and again!
"Nope! Nothing! I didn't hear anything!! β
The head shook like a rattle, as if he was afraid that he would not sleep for half a month if he answered a sentence late?
It's a chore, too!
You have to supervise and you can't snoop on your privacy!
I want to know people's privacy and refuse to do it myself!
Is this work done by a human?!
Sima Xuan didn't expect that in just a moment, the secret guard would turn over so many waves in his heart, and he frowned and muttered.
"None? Seriously? β
The dark guard shook his head and his eyes were full of stars, and his bones were gurgling because of shaking his head, and he only felt that his cervical spondylosis had to be cured for many years!
Finally looked at Sima Xuan and waved his hand, only to be relieved and quickly broke the window and fled?
And forgot to close the window!
Sima Xuan didn't have time to pay attention to whether he closed the window or not, and at this time he was sitting alone in the shadow of the study, muttering speechlessly.
"Yan'er, Yan'er, how much have you paid for me? Why don't you let me know? β
β¦β¦
A few days laterβ
She was speechless and looked at the sky, what kind of luck is this today?
Someone came to the king's capital, Chu Fengyun asked her to meet her, and when she saw the king's shopkeeper, who secretly sighed bad things? !
Even if Dongfang Yan wants to pretend that he doesn't know, he can't do anything, that guy's little moth is too sensitive, she was caught before she could hide, and the little colorful butterfly stopped in her hair and fluttered her wings, like a beautiful hairpin!
Dongfang Yan looked at the sky speechlessly, and the shopkeeper Wang was speechless and lowered his eyes......
Who will tell him how can Fang Dongfang Yan be a person at the Falling Goose Banquet?!
The world is fantastic!
The owner of the dance hall who is not close to the wind and horses! The smash hit Juyuanlou shopkeeper! The famous Dongfang Mansion daughter Dongfang Yan! How can these three people who can't beat each other be alone?!!!
How do these people come together?!!
Who's going to tell him?!
Chu Fengyun didn't care about Wang Run's shock, he only cared about the focus of this mission, about this? Especially for her body, she is completely uneasy, who is worried?
"Wang Run, how much blood does it take for all the Gu poison in the whole city to draw out?"
Dongfang Yan doesn't know when these two people have dealt with each other, the shopkeeper Wang's original name is Wang Run, but it seems that he rarely has direct contact with the outside world, a master imperial doctor who has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and a descendant of the Gu Saint family who has hidden a lot, how did he know?
"Blood? Can you use her blood to lure Gu? Seriously? β
Sima Xuan frowned, and suddenly appeared at the gate of the courtyard at this time, which caught everyone off guard, Chu Fengyun subconsciously looked at Dongfang Yan's expression, but it was as usual, and there was no abnormality at all.
Dongfang Yan looked at the sky speechlessly, and Chu Fengyun also frowned.
At this time, knowing that he couldn't hide it, Sima Xuan found out by himself, and it was not a ruin to promise Dongfang Yan not to tell him, so why don't you take the initiative to explain?
Without waiting for him to explain, Dongfang Yan spoke.
"If it's the same Gu poison as you, it can be elicited with my blood, if it's other Gu poison, and those people don't have to suffer a little, then there's nothing I can do."
He didn't ask her the reason, she wondered in her heart, this person is not an idle person who has nothing to do? She has to ask all the things big and small, what's going on today?
The long-term concern disappeared, she was stunned, she was lost?
Not lost at all!
She was just relieved, but she was also happy that he didn't ask, because she didn't want to lie to him, she didn't want to tell him, she didn't want to explain, maybe she didn't know why, and how to explain?
Maybe she felt that her body had nothing to do with anyone and didn't need to be explained!
That's the best.
Sima Xuan didn't care about those, he hadn't seen him for many days, at this time, looking at Dongfang Yan's still pale face, it seemed that all the mysteries had been suddenly revealed, the outbreak of the plague, the outbreak of Gu poison, the fixed number of people, the cellar full of broken crockpots in the flooded mansion next to the riverbank, suddenly connected together, what truth suddenly became clear, it turned out that the so-called Gu poison came from like this?
The flood washed away the embankment, flooded the abandoned ancient houses on the riverbed, and also submerged the Gu poison hidden in the cellar, causing the Gu poison to spread rapidly, and the trance looked like a plague?
The spread of the plague blinded the lard of the former county magistrate of Xunan County, and he really wanted to close the city gate to try how to cultivate such a thing as a Gu Saint, but it caused a restlessness among the whole people?
All the funds were invested in the cultivation of Gu poison, and the silver was short, and a blank check was thrown to lure the people in the rivers and lakes to 'defend the south', and at this time, there was no money to repair the embankment, and the flood continued to wash, where did it start and end?
The official forced the people to rebel, thinking that this is the process, the messenger went out to meet the people of the rivers and lakes hired by the county order and was ambushed, desperately fled, and finally died at the west gate of Yaori, met Dongfang Yan, it happened that he and Dongfang Yan came to Cannan to find a way to solve the Gu, but at this time she herself became the only victim?
Why her?
Is it accidental or inevitable? Coincidence or fate?
No matter what, at this time, all he was worried about was her, that pale face and delicate body, could she really save the city from the plague? If so, at what cost?
He was selfish, if he could not ask her to sacrifice, maybe he wouldn't let her come in the first place?
But the heart is extremely greedy for the journey with each other, the hardships and hardships, the inseparable, the inadvertently shown tenderness, this road is one step closer than the relationship in the past ten years, it seems that she has finally touched the distance between her and his heart, such a line, is it right or wrong? What's right and what's wrong?
Where to start?
