Chapter 306: Master and Servant Talk
The days slipped by, and it was finally April. During this period of time, Lan Jing'an has been showing up more and more time in Jiangling. But she still only sees the civil servants and daughters, and never sees the military attachΓ©. Occasionally, she would go for a walk in the market.
In just a few years under the rule of the cadre army, Gangneung has once again prospered. Due to its important location and the fact that it was the capital of the old dynasty, the number of people moving into Gangneung City has gradually increased, and there are countless merchants coming and going from the south to the north. In this troubled time, Gangneung, the first major city to stabilize, has become a paradise in the hearts of the people.
Lan Jing'an's reputation in Gangneung is not only unmatched, but even better than the ancestors of her Si Ming clan. As long as she appears, it is easy to cause a sensation and onlookers, too many people hope to get blessings from Da Si Ming, even if they can't, even if they see Da Si Ming, it is good.
Although this was the situation that Lan Jing'an had expected and requested, when she heard that the people had spontaneously erected a stone shrine for her, she was still startled and felt that it was a bit too much. Lan Jing'an had to come forward to educate the people in person, telling everyone that it was enough to have God in their hearts, and there was no need to build a shrine for her, she was just carrying out God's will.
Lan Jing'an's humility and respect for the gods won the favor of the people. As the incarnation of the gods, she is even more famous now. Her name, as well as all kinds of miracles, true and false, have spread far beyond the imagination of many people to the big cities and villages, and to all countries near and far.
At this time, Lan Jing'an didn't know what her fame meant this time, she was listening to Zhang Xun's report on the transfer of the northwest in the Chengjing Palace. After listening to this, Lan Jing'an said to Zhang Xun with a spring breeze on his face: "If you want to say that Shen Junshi is really powerful, not only did the 80,000 army go back, but also brought back more than 100,000 people to the border reclamation, this time I finally don't have to worry about the affairs of the northwest for the time being." β
Zhang Xun also nodded excitedly: "Not really." Although Shen Junshi is young, he is unparalleled in his romance and is a true national warrior. After he finished speaking, he lowered his voice and asked Lan Jing'an: "The northwest is established, when do you plan to leave?" β
Lan Jing'an thought for a while and whispered back: "Wait for General Wang to come over, he arrives, I'll leave again." I always have to ensure the safety of Jingzhou, so I can rest assured. β
Zhang Xun calculated the days, according to the transfer documents secretly sent from Chen Liu, it is estimated that General Wang Jin will arrive in about ten days, counting the time of the handover, the chief secretary is afraid that the longest in Jiangling will be another fifteen or sixteen days. He was a little reluctant in his eyes, but he still smiled and said to Lan Jing'an: "In those days, I will play a few more games with you." β
Lan Jing couldn't let go of Zhang Xun and Guo Qingtian in his heart, and when he heard Zhang Xun's words, he also forced out a smile: "What the teacher said is true." I'll go to your study and see if you have any treasures. β
Zhang Xun hurriedly waved his hand: "That's it, let's go to Qingtian together tomorrow." Lan Jing'an smiled and even showed his little white teeth: "The teacher wants to borrow flowers to offer Buddha again?" I don't know if it will be me or Mr. Qingtian who will be cheated by my mentor this time. When Zhang Xun heard this, he stroked his beard and laughed twice.
The two chatted a few more words, and before Zhang Xun left, Lan Jing'an talked about Jiang Mingshu: "Female Officer Jiang, please take more care of you." Zhang Xun said: "Please rest assured. β
Lan Jing'an kept sending Zhang Xun out of the palace walls of the Chengjing Hall before turning around. When she passed by Jiang Mingshu's residence, she saw that Su Mei was going out, so she beckoned to Su Mei: "Shouldn't you still be by Aunt Jiang's side at this hour?" How did you change the charter today? β
Su Mei hurriedly greeted her: "Medical Officer Jiang is here, so I came out first." Lan Jing'an smiled and said, "That's right, you and I should go back to the dormitory first." Su Mei said yes when she heard this, and obediently followed Lan Jing into the main hall.
After Lan Jing sat down, she also let Su Mei sit opposite her. Su Mei rarely saw Lan Jing'an so serious about herself, and she was worried, and she didn't know what was going on. When Lan Jing'an saw her so cautious, she was distressed and helpless.
She has educated Su Mei for a long time, although she has finally become less restrained, but this timid nature seems to be impossible to change in this life. Lan Jing'an let out a sullen breath and said, "In ten days, I will go north to the army." Are you going to come with me, or are you going to stay with Aunt Jiang? β
Although Su Mei knew the news that Da Si was going north in the past two months, seeing her ask herself so formally made Su Mei's eyes red. Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to achieve, and she replied without hesitation: "As long as the big secretary still uses me, don't think I'm cumbersome, I will follow the big secretary, and I will go wherever you go." β
Lan Jing'an was not surprised by her statement, took a sip of tea, and added: "Medical Officer Jiang will also stay in Jiangling." We won't go back to Gangneung again if we don't return to the country this time. Su Mei's face quickly turned white, but she still lowered her head and waited for Lan Jing'an to continue.
Lan Jing'an saw that Su Mei was silent, so she had to continue: "This time, let's go to the army again, I plan to choose a good husband for you by the way." General Lu is also particularly concerned about your life's events. I remember you were a few years older than me, and I really can't delay you so much anymore. β
Su Mei raised her fawn-like eyes and looked at Lan Jing'an pitifully: "Da Si Ming, aren't you Mei?" I was determined not to marry at the beginning, and I will only serve you in this life. If you are really good for Su Mei, I beg you, don't let Su Mei be a person. β
Lan Jing'an's heart was soft when she saw her, but she still said resolutely: "It's not that you can't marry someone, but you always have to have someone who knows cold and hot together, and life is complete." What's more, you are the only one left in your Pang family, don't you want to have a child of your own? At most, I promise you that you will choose a husband, what do you think? β
Lan Jing'an waited for Su Mei to say Jiang Yutang's name with a red face, but Su Mei cried quietly with a handful of snot and tears, and refused to say anything except repeatedly saying that she was determined not to marry. This made Lan Jing'an in a hurry, and persuaded for a long time before Su Mei put away her tears.
Lan Jing'an is really strange, since Bi Luan heard Su Mei shouting Jiang Yutang's name in her dream, why did she let her pick someone by herself, but she didn't mention Jiang Yutang at all? She decided to take another dose of fierce medicine: "Su Mei, in this world, you really can't look down on a man?" What do you think of Medical Officer Chiang? β
"I, I..." Su Mei "me" twice, and cried again. Lan Jing'an persuaded her softly: "If you don't tell me the truth again, there will really be no one in this world who is the master for you." If you truly regard me as your master, you should not hide your heart from me. β
Su Mei looked up and saw the eyes of the great priest who seemed to have already understood everything, panicked, and the secrets held in her heart poured out like a torrent: "You know everything? Then please don't let the slave follow Medical Officer Jiang. No matter how unbearable a slave is, she can't do anything that ruins other people's marriages. For the slave maid, instead of staying by his side and watching him get intimate with other women every day, it is better to serve you innocently for a lifetime. β
Lan Jing'an was a little puzzled in her heart, Su Mei's words should not be for no reason, was Su Mei misunderstood, or did Jiang Yutang actually belong to other places in his heart but hooked Su Meitu's identity? Lan Jing'an continued to ask quietly, "Do you know who the other party is?" How can you say such a deflating thing? β
Su Mei's tears had already wet her skirt: "Who it is, what does it matter?" He postponed his marriage again and again for the sake of that girl, isn't that girl important in his heart? Even if I am a slave and a maid by his side, as long as I appear, won't it be a blockage for that girl? If you really pity me, you will let Doctor Jiang go and let me live. β
