Chapter 15: Whose Foolish Son?

"Xiao Lanlan?"

In the dilapidated courtyard, Yike tiptoed into the half-and-half-half-wooden door.

The room alternates between light and dark, and large and small pillars of light shine down obliquely from the roof, making the dust in the air visible.

And the lonely figure was hidden in a dim corner, and by the faint light, I could vaguely see that the thin shoulders were trembling.

"Angry?"

Yike looked for the figure again and called softly.

But what responded to her was only Alain's choked "I want you to take care of it".

"Eh, that's a bit of an outrage."

Yike's footsteps stopped, and he walked straight to the place where Alain was sitting with his knees crossed.

Until Yike came to her side, Alan still didn't raise his head, and let Yike sit beside him with a dead face.

Yike looked around and muttered softly, "I'm curious, I wanted to ask you last time, but I forgot about it." ”

Alain didn't respond, and Yike didn't care, and continued to ask:

"Compared to where those people live here, it's a mansion."

"I wonder why they are willing to give this place to you."

"Isn't it ......"

Yike paused for a moment, staring at the back of Alain's head in a shy, silently counting in his heart,

β€œ3、2……”

Sure enough, just as Yike thought, at the moment when 2 had just finished counting, Alan suddenly raised his head and looked at Yike who had returned to normal with teary eyes.

"Shut up!"

"If you say more, I'll ...... I'll just ......"

"What are you?"

"I'll cry to you."

As he spoke, those tear-filled eyes lit up again,

"You cry, you cry one, I'll see!"

Yike didn't have the slightest idea of pity for the fragrance and jade, and immediately shouted,

"If crying solves the problem, then I will cry every day."

For a moment, Yike's cry was deafening.

Alain looked at the handsome young man in front of him in disbelief, but his voice was unprecedentedly thick, and his closed eyes did not squeeze out a single tear.

For a moment, Yike's distorted face provoked Alain to sneer.

"Ugly!"

Yike stopped when he heard the sound, retracted freely, and turned his head to look at Alan with a smile on his face,

"Stop crying?"

"Why are people like you crying?"

"Spread it, others still think I'm what's wrong with you."

Alain rolled his eyes at Yike.

Yike saw that his treacherous plan succeeded, and he smiled,

"Then it'll be fine."

Alan looked at Yike's sloppy face, and suddenly reacted,

"What's all right? You know you'......"

Seeing this, Yike hurriedly got up and looked at the environment in the room again as if nothing had happened.

"That...... Why did they give you this room? ”

……

After a few tugging, Alan still explained part of the reason why he can have such a "mansion".

On the way to escape, in order to appease everyone, Alain not only took out all the coils he carried, but also did his own thing, taking care of the frail and disabled elderly and children around him all the way, but her personal energy was limited, and that bit of coiling was a drop in the bucket, but her actions spread among the people.

Later, all the way into the pass with the flow of people, came to Liuyun City, the saddest few days were to lose their clothes, and chose to live with everyone without hesitation, in order to take care of such a kind-hearted girl, this took the initiative to give up such a place that looked pretty good.

And himself, in order not to let more people in Daliang be too humble to himself, he disguised himself as a boy.

"I can't see it, you're quite loving."

Yike looked at Alan with a sad face, teased, and then thought of a question,

"But I see them like they are now, as if they don't remember who you are."

Alain looked obviously a little lonely, but just shook his head lightly,

"Everyone can't protect themselves, how can they still have the energy to think about this."

"That's just as well."

Alain's eyes were completely empty, and his voice changed, and he whispered:

"Now I'm just a little worried about whether anyone else will find out about what happened last night."

"What about discovery."

Yike waved his hand and sat down beside Alain,

"There is no surveillance, who knows that person is you, it's so dark."

"Surveillance? What is it? ”

Alain was puzzled.

"This surveillance is a tool in my hometown, it comes in all shapes, even in the dark, it can record any clues under the camera."

After explaining, Yike thought about it and added, "I'm talking about the monitoring of the traffic management bureau."

……

A few days later, a team of people entered Liuyun City with great fanfare.

And all this, Tang Guanli on the recliner in the back hall of the county government was completely unaware, and Chen Dali on the side was holding his big belly, with a flattering smile on his face to report his great achievements.

"Adult, adult, eh......"

"Oh no, no!"

A gray-clothed catcher with the word "official" embroidered on his chest hurriedly bypassed the bluestone screen in front of the courtyard and knelt in front of Tang Guanli.

Tang Guanli just snorted, still the old god was on the ground with his eyes closed.

Chen Dali, who was next to him, twisted the jade belt around his waist with difficulty, stepped forward in two steps and stretched out his hand, knocked off the hat on the head of the catcher, and scolded,

"What the hell are you yelling about?"

"I don't know if adults need to recuperate, what should I do if I'm scared again..."

Catch quickly picked up his hat on his stomach, and kept shouting "Adults atone for their sins, adults atone for their sins".

"Anyway, what's the matter?"

Quickly put on his hat, swallowed his saliva, and pointed in the direction of the city gate tower after arching his hand, panting sharply, suppressing his voice,

"Big ...... People, out of the city...... Someone's coming! ”

Chen Dali wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead with his hand, squinted his eyes, and said disdainfully:

"Someone's coming? You're kidding me, although our Liuyun City is not a big city or county, there are not a few people who come every day, are you so flustered to report..."

As he spoke, he raised his feet again.

Seeing the elephant's legs coming towards him, he quickly subconsciously closed his eyes, lowered his head and shouted urgently:

"It seems to be a big official."

"Great official?"

"How old is the officer?"

Hearing this, he slowly raised his head, I don't know if he was nervous or if he was a little hot when he trotted all the way just now, so that the sweat on his eyebrows and eyes kept seeping into his eyes, and it was a little difficult to open them for a while.

After rubbing his two fingers, he saw a huge and greasy face suddenly occupy his field of vision, swallowed his saliva and said:

"Little ...... The villain doesn't know, but looking at the battle, it's not small. ”

Chen Dali supported his huge body, slowly walked in front of Tang Guanli, lowered his head slightly, and said in a low voice:

"Brother-in-law, it should be someone sent by the imperial court."

Tang Guanli slowly opened his eyes, and with Chen Dali's support, he stood up, as if he had not recovered from a serious illness, but his face was a little ruddy.

"It should come, it will always come."

"You're all set."

Chen nodded vigorously in response,

"It's all ready, brother-in-law."

"Let's go......"

……

Outside the county office, Tang Guanli had already changed into an official office, and the envoys, inspectors and other small officials behind him were all present, and Chen Dali was also standing beside Tang Guanli, constantly wiping the sweat beads on his face.

"Brother-in-law, why haven't you come yet?"

Tang Guanli squinted at Chen Dali's sweaty head, "Look at you like that, calm down." ”

Chen Dali laughed and said yes again and again.

Not far away, a neat team of people and horses slowly moved forward, no title plate in front, and there was no gong, just all the silver-armored soldiers, neatly supported around the two four-person sedan chairs, everywhere they went, the streets were clear, and the people on both sides stopped and looked, so it was not unusual.

Seeing the convoy walk in front of him, Tang Guanli walked down the steps with an official, bowed his hand and said:

"Xiaguan Liuyunzhi County Tang Guanli, I have seen adults, I don't know that the two adults are coming, I miss the welcome, and I hope that the two adults will atone for their sins!"

"Falling off the sedan ......"

As a high-pitched voice sounded, the front and rear sedan chairmen pressed the sedan chair together.

"Oops, it's finally here, but it's shaking me to death..."

Before the curtain was lifted left and right, an impatient voice came from a sedan chair behind him, and he saw a young man in brocade open the curtain and jump out in one step.

The young man has a six-foot figure, upright facial features, a round heavenly court, and a wealth between his eyebrows, but at first glance he has a somewhat naΓ―ve appearance, which is exactly the person recommended by the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces - the prince of the dynasty.

Maybe the sunlight was a little dazzling, and after stretching his waist, Wu Zhao covered it slightly with his hand, and his gaze stopped on the car in front of him.

"Old man Zhang, are you asleep? Why can't you come down yet? ”

Then he took the initiative to lift the curtain in the stunned eyes of everyone, and pulled out an old man with a gray beard from it.

"Oh, I'm going to drop a kiss..."

Several sunspot handymen around him were quick to see and move, and stepped forward to help him in time, which dragged the old man who almost fell to the ground, and stumbled down to stand firm.

Wu Zhao heard the old man's voice, immediately clapped his hands, and laughed loudly:

"Haha......"

"Look, I'll just say you're asleep, let's get there."

But the old man didn't show the slightest sign of anger, and after patting his chest, he breathed a sigh of relief,

"I'm a little ancestor, how could the old man fall asleep, isn't he waiting for someone to pull the curtain! Etiquette, this is the rule! ”

"Harm ......"

Wu Zhao raised his hand,

"If you didn't say it earlier, the next sedan chair will be so troublesome, so be it!"

As he spoke, he put his left hand on the old man's chest, flicked it gently, only to hear the sound of "oops", then took off the hands of several people and sat in the sedan chair again.

"Your Excellency!"

"Your Excellency!"

……

Several servants, who were obviously old men's servants, scrambled to surround them.

And Wu Zhao had already strode towards the front of the crowd, and he didn't forget to taunt in his mouth, "What my father said is right, he is really old and stubborn, and everyone has to abide by the etiquette system when they come out..."

"Who is Tang Guanli and who is Chen Dali?"

Wu Zhao crossed his hands on his hips and looked ahead, and a momentum of not being angry or threatening gushed out from the soles of his feet.

Everything that happened was naturally captured by Tang Guanli's gaze, at first he was a little stunned to see the young man, thinking that he must be the heir of this adult, this time he came to experience it, but then the scene couldn't help but make Tang Guanli and Chen Dali look at each other a little, until Wu Zhao appeared in front of the two, Tang Guanli still had too many question marks in his mind.

"Whose stupid son is this?"
