When Qin Mingyue arrived at Xiao Rui's famous garden, it was already the time to hold the lamp.

Xiao Rui had already gotten the news and came out to greet him, and as soon as they met, he said to Qin Mingyue with some reproach: "I heard that you have been talking to those old Taoists for a day, and the water and rice have not entered, how can this work?" ”

Hearing Xiao Rui's doting tone, Qin Mingyue's heart warmed.

Qin Mingyue followed Xiao Rui towards Nuanyun Pavilion and said, "Where is it so expensive, it's just that I didn't eat a lunch." In my previous life, when I was dealing with government affairs, sometimes I was busy, and it was normal to skip meals for a few days. Although I don't practice martial arts, it's not uncommon for me to practice the Tao and skip meals for a few days. If nothing else, what do we do when we are in retreat? Do you still have to eat three meals a day, eating big fish and meat? ”

Saying this, Qin Mingyue added in her heart, in her previous life, she didn't eat for a few days, and no one took care of it, and no one asked. The courtiers around him, they were under their own coercion and did not dare to speak up. The faint monarch in the palace is hypocritical, and in addition to asking for power, the husband Hua Yixuan is greedy for flowers and lustful himself, where can he care about Qin Mingyue? It's that Qin Mingyue's own maids who are serving around her have been replaced by Yin Dyed Qiu, how can they care about themselves?

This life is completely different, not to mention the four big girls, loyal, just now she just left the door of the lecture hall, there was already a winter song with hot pastries, Qiu Ge boiled a big pot of tonic soup and sent it. She ate a little pastry, drank a few mouthfuls of soup, and then got into a carriage and went to Xiao Rui. On the way, in the carriage, the four big maids were already waiting for Qin Mingyue to eat and drink all the way. At this moment, my stomach was warm, and I didn't feel hungry at all.

Xiao Rui said: "It's just another time." We have traveled a long way, and after walking such a long way, once you arrive at the place, you haven't rested enough, so it's not good to work so hard. It just so happened that I specially called the officials of Ba Province to have dinner and hold a banquet at noon. I knew you were impatient with this, so I sent them all in advance. Only one governor, Wang Meiren, was left. The two of us went to Nuanyun Pavilion to have a simple dinner, and then talked to Wang Meiren. ”

Qin Mingyue nodded and said, "When I came, I had already eaten a little on the way. Later, just eat some greens. Let's eat quickly, I still want to ask Wang Meiren more. ”

Xiao Rui knew that this time when he came out, visiting the people's sufferings was secondary, and Qin Mingyue's task was the most important. Therefore, he understood Qin Mingyue's eagerness.

While the two of them were talking, they had already arrived at the Warm Cloud Pavilion, and when they arrived at the small dining hall for eating, there were already all kinds of green dishes on the table, and there were more than 20 dishes.

Qin Mingyue sat down with Xiao Rui and served by Dongqu and the others to eat, and said, "It's said that it should be simpler, and you still have so many dishes?" ”

Xiao Rui said: "When have I ever wronged myself? It's not like we can't afford it. Besides, today's dishes are all made by our own chefs. Many of them are made with fresh vegetables here, and they have been as plain as possible. ”

Qin Mingyue took a look, and sure enough, there were many kinds of green vegetables. This is originally the turn of spring and summer, all kinds of melons and vegetables are the most tender season, eating these crisp and refreshing things, it is naturally refreshing. Qin Mingyue couldn't help but move her index finger, and without saying much, she sat down with Xiao Rui and ate.

This meal was accompanied by Xiao Rui, and the food was extraordinarily sweet.

After eating, they washed up, and Qin Mingyue said, "Xiao Rui, let's go over and meet Wang Meiren." How is this governor? Before, I read the record of my star washing hall. He was originally from Yun Province, and he was also a two-rank jinshi, so it was still okay to learn. Born in the second class, he has been in a foreign position since then, starting from the county order. Everywhere he goes, although he can't be said to be honest, he is a person who is willing to do practical things. But he has done a lot of good things for the local people. has been promoted cumulatively, and now, he has been in the eunuch field for twenty or thirty years, and he has already passed half a hundred, and then he has become the governor of Ba Province. ”

However, this not only shows that his official reputation is still good and his ability is also good, but also shows that he is really not very valued in the cabinet of the capital. How else could he have been sent to this remote and wild province? ”

Xiao Rui said: "My people also investigated and said that he should have no problem. Although he was not as clean as water in his tenure as governor, he did not do anything bad. The family business is because of so many years of travel, from a small household with less than ten acres of land in Yun Province to a large family with a lot of money now. That's all, though. The places where he has served are all remote places like Xiangba Province, and there is really not much oil and water. Therefore, the family business is just a thousand yuan. Among the governor's officials, they were all considered poor. ”

Qin Mingyue sneered and said, "Xiao Rui, your mouth is really mean enough. What does it mean to be poor among governors? ”

When Xiao Rui saw the smile of the beautiful woman, he was naturally overjoyed and said, "What are the officials of our Great Zhou like, don't you know yet?" You know it better than I do. To be the governor, who is not a mountain of gold and silver? Like Wang Meiren, he is really a poor household. ”

Qin Mingyue sighed and said: "When the water is clear, there are no fish, I also understand this truth, so, in my previous life, although I put a lot of effort into it, I still didn't rectify the rule of officials, and it got worse and worse." Now, the situation of our officials in Da Zhou is much better than when He Xiang managed it in the previous life. ”

Xiao Rui didn't want Qin Mingyue to think of the things in his previous life, and said, "That time is gone forever, we have to grasp the present." With our father here, if we help us again, we will definitely be able to make the people of the world live and work in peace and contentment. ”

Qin Mingyue looked up and saw Xiao Rui's clear eyes, and couldn't help but nod.

Yes, the situation is indeed different from the previous life. The Qin family is no longer a burden to themselves. It is impossible for him to marry into the Hua family. The prince rebelled, and he was already mentally prepared, and there would not be a situation where the people in the capital were killed and injured like in his previous life. Xiao Xi, the faint monarch, will not have a chance to take the position if he stops him, and He Xiang is still running into walls everywhere in the capital. Everything will be fine.

The most important thing is that although there are still many difficulties and obstacles in the future, this time, Qin Mingyue is not on the road alone. She has a loyal maid by her side, a caring and capable grandmother, a capable brother, and Xiao Rui who loves her, values her, spoils her, loves her, tolerates her, and is considerate of her.

Qin Mingyue couldn't help laughing.
