Chapter 438: A watershed is coming
Suppose, the king of Shu killed the officials of Bazhong City.
Then he took the guilt and went to His Majesty, and felt guilty about how the officials of Ba Zhongcheng were colluding in corruption and banditry, and he was really angry as the king of Shu before killing them, and asked His Majesty to punish them.
Of course, Your Majesty will not blame the King of Shu, and may even reward the King of Shu for purging the officials of Shu regardless of his own net worth and life.
Aren't they the ones who are officials and petty officials?
In the eyes of outsiders, it is the old man, who responds to every call, saying that the people only have obedience, and going out is the majesty of might, but only they know the suffering, how can there be any majesty, and it is not in front of a higher commander, just a response worm.
On this day, after the verdict was over and everything was done, it was already dusk, and the county lord went out of the county office and returned home. Madame is at home, and the children are still reading with Mr. in the wing.
Seeing Mrs., the county said: "Madam, what about the wine jug that my friend gave me the day before yesterday, I put it on the table yesterday, but I didn't find it when I went out this morning, did you put it away?"
"I asked Xiaomei to put it in the kitchen, what, do you want it?" Mrs. is also a woman in the big family of Bazhong City, and she talked to the county lord without the slightest humility. This is a kind of temperament that only everyone has in the ladies.
"Oh. Xian Cheng nodded: "I think the wine jug is very good-looking, and I am going to put it in the study for viewing, just forget it once you get it in the kitchen." ”
Mrs. said: "I thought so at first, but then I thought about it, the wine jug is for drinking, and it is not impossible to put it in the study, but it is a bit of a waste of his role as a wine jug..."
"Madame's words are full of Zen wit. The county man smiled.
"Don't be modest, the concubine is just an axe. Madame laughed too.
The two looked at each other for a moment, and the county suddenly stretched out his hand to hold his wife's hand, and said: "Madam, the case of handling twenty officials has been reported, I don't know if the court will send down the wrath of thunder, if this is the case, I am afraid that the husband will leave you with the child..."
"What nonsense is the husband talking about?" Mrs. frowned and raised her hand to cover the county Cheng's mouth: "It's not the husband's fault, no matter how much the court blames, at most it can only punish you for the crime of laxity under the emperor, which is nothing more than throwing away the black yarn hat." Life should be worry-free. The two of them, the old husband and wife, had the same mind at this time, and the county was just casually talking, but Mrs. was a little angry.
"Okay, no nonsense, no nonsense. The county Cheng apologized with a smile and said, "Did Mrs. Guining bring me any good things last time? My father-in-law said that he would give me a 10-pound long-lived 100-year-old gold lock, why hasn't it been done yet? Where did you invite the goldsmith? ”
"My father said that the goldsmith said that the gold lock was too big and heavy, and that the ornamentation on it was very complicated, and that it would take at least three months, so don't be in a hurry. My father also asked me to tell you to drink less and rest more. Madame said with a smile, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes indicating that she was no longer a small age. But these wrinkles did not detract from her beauty in the slightest. This kind of beauty is not simply the beauty of appearance, but more of a gentle and elegant bearing contained in words and deeds.
"Next year, I will send a sterling silver urinal to my father-in-law to repay my father-in-law for his gift of gold locks. Ha ha. The county lord laughed. In recent years, I have heard that Westerners use silverware, and silverware has become the most popular thing, more popular than gold, and my father-in-law, a businessman, is no exception to fall in love with silverware. Shiny silver stuff has become a favorite.
During the Chinese New Year this year, my father-in-law personally said that the silver urinal next door was really good-looking.
Madame frowned, said "bored" and walked away. Love books
After Mrs. walked away, the face of the county lord turned cold, and looking at Mrs. Madame's back, there was a faint pain in his heart. He has a good relationship with his wife, and has been very good since they first got married. So good that he can't live without his wife, and his wife can't live without him. Even if you don't do anything together, as long as you are by each other's side, that is the greatest joy and satisfaction.
However, the thorn in the heart of the county lord from many years ago has always been there, hanging in his heart all the year round, and occasionally stabbing himself.
That night, the maid was like a nightmare. Of course, the reason why it became a nightmare is also to 'thank' the county lord for his frequent reminders. The county lord often took out 'that knife' and tried it on the top of his county's head.
Therefore, the happier he lives with his wife, the more his heart hurts when there is no one.
More than once he wanted to tell his wife about it and confess it to her. But after thinking about it, I feel that it is useless to tell Madame, even if Madame can forgive herself, Madame will not be able to solve this problem, and it will only increase Madame's troubles and heartache. So instead of this, it is better to let yourself bear it alone, and the big mistakes you have made should be borne by yourself.
"Madam, I'm sorry, I can only deceive you all the time..."The county lord said secretly in his heart.
This life has passed like this, happy and satisfied on the surface, but in fact it is tormented inside.
And he didn't know that at this moment, the knife was talking to Chen Letian, the opponent of the county honor. He would never have thought that it would not be long before Chen Letian would come to him and have a good talk with him. And then change his life.
He didn't know any of that.
In fact, everyone's fate is not in their own hands most of the time, but it does not mean that people can only resign themselves to fate. Heaven will unpredictably and unpredictably give us the opportunity to choose at some key junctures, and we, as long as we seize the opportunity, then our life road can speed in the direction we want.
What the future holds, it depends on how the county lord chooses.

Chen Letian came to Guizhi again. Gui Zhi is already familiar with Chen Letian. Chen Lotian brought her some pastries.
Gui Zhi thanked him and ate slowly on his lap, saying that it was delicious. Chen Letian thought to himself, I specially asked Feng Shan to buy it, I am afraid it is the best pastry shop in Bazhong City, it is said that it is a shop opened by a businessman from the capital, and it is an old shop with a history of 20 years.
In order to make you 'submit' and 'abandon the darkness and follow the light', I have tried my best, you must listen to me obediently today, otherwise it will be a waste of my effort.
"Childe, I've never told anyone so much in all these years. Gui Zhi smiled.
Chen Letian said: "There are always people guarding you, you can talk to them when you are fine." ”
Gui Zhi shook his head and said: "They don't dare to talk to me more, this is the rule set by the county lord, maybe they are afraid that they will talk too much to me, and let me run away." ”
