Since the camp was built, the number of refugees has gradually increased, and only half of the relief food stolen by the robbers has been recovered, which is a drop in the bucket.

Ye Lingxiao told Ling Xue that if the refugees wanted to have enough to eat, they had to ask the imperial court to redistribute relief food, otherwise the food would be cut off, and the refugees would be panicked and would definitely rise up in groups.

When Ling Xue heard this, she was worried.

Today's imperial court is worried about internal and external troubles, there are northern werewolves in the north of Xinjiang, and the court has Wei Xuzhong, Marquis of Anyuan, and Xu Ge Lao to control the government.

The traitorous ministers are in charge, and they even dare to embezzle disaster relief grain, and fool the people with moldy rice!

"Has my brother figured out a solution to the moldy rice incident? Will you tell the emperor the truth? ”

Ye Lingxiao sat at the desk, tapped his fingers on the table, and said in a deep voice: "They are very cunning, they only send one day of rice every day, and they don't leave any evidence at all, even if the evidence is conclusive, Xu Ge Lao will only push out Zhang Yan of the Ministry of Rites as a substitute for the dead ghost, and he will leave himself clean!" ”

Ling Xue said angrily, "Then what should I do? Just let them go? ”

"Tomorrow I will go to the pilgrimage to the Holy Shrine, and you don't need to worry about the disaster relief food. I will also tell the emperor the truth. ”

Ling Xue said: "They have drunk moldy rice porridge for seven days, and they have accumulated too many toxins in their bodies. I'm good at pharmacology, and I'm good at detoxification, so I'll stay here to help these days. ”

"Hmm." This time, Ye Lingxiao did not oppose her.

"However, the army is busy with affairs, I won't stay here every day, you have to be careful."

Ling Xue smiled: "Brother, don't worry, I will be careful in everything." ”

Speaking of this, Ye Lingxiao remembered one more thing, he said: "I heard that Jun Heng ruined Xu Ruoyao's face by mistake today? ”

Ling Xue muttered: "She did it first, if my brother wants to blame, just blame me." ”

Ye Lingxiao raised his eyebrows and said, "Why did he do it, do you think I don't know?" As he spoke, he glanced at her meaningfully and said, "I don't mean to blame, it's just that I advise you to keep some distance from Nie Junheng!" He is not just a sister and brother to you! ”

Ling Xue's heart trembled, and she looked at Ye Lingxiao in astonishment.

"Why did my brother say that?"

Ye Lingxiao didn't see the unnatural look on her face, but said with a serious expression: "After all, he is not from the Ye family, and he has no blood relationship with us, since he was a child, he has relied on you too much, I have never said anything." But now, he is no longer a child, and he should understand the difference between men and women. ”

"You, a girl who has not been out of the cabinet, should also understand these truths, and if there is no important thing in the future, you are not allowed to go to Xiyuan to find him without permission."

Ling Xue tugged at her sleeve tightly with her fingers, and said in an unhappy tone, "Why doesn't my brother like Jun Heng?" What's wrong with him? Why can others find him, but not me? ”

Ye Lingxiao glanced up at her, and under the firelight, his face looked very fierce and majestic.

"No matter how good he is, he can only be your brother! Ye Lingxue, other thoughts, I advise you not to have them! ”

Ling Xue's heart sank, and she asked puzzledly, "Why can't you have other thoughts?" Didn't my brother say the same? I am not related to him by blood, so can't I be someone else except his sister? ”

Ye Lingxiao didn't raise his head, and said in a resolute tone: "No, his temperament is too impulsive and not suitable for you." ”

Ling Xue frowned and said, "You are just prejudiced against him!" ”

"Prejudice?" Ye Lingxiao raised her eyes to look at her when she heard this, and her voice was low and cold: "When my father and mother left, I asked me to take care of you, and before they came back, I advised you not to move anything!" ”

"You can like anyone! Only Nie Junheng can't! ”

"I won't allow you to look for him again! If you let me know you're in the same room with him, I'll let him move out of the house right away!" ”

Ling Xue's eyes immediately turned red, she turned around and didn't want to look at him, and said in a choked voice: "Brother bullies, when Daddy comes back, I'll tell Daddy to go ......"

Ye Lingxiao said: "If you cry again, you will be punished for not being allowed to leave the house in the next few days, and you will learn embroidery at home!" ”

"Brother is a bully!" Ling Xue wiped away a handful of tears, pushed open the door and ran out.

Red Shadow saw Ling Xue crying and leaving, and he could hear the conversation between the two of them clearly.

After entering the house, Chiying said: "The subordinates can see that the county lord seems to like General Nie/Jun very much, why can't the prince fulfill them?" ”

Ye Lingxiao got up and walked to the window, looked at Ling Xue's back trotting away, and said expressionlessly: "Now that the situation is turbulent, Nie Junheng acts too impulsively and never thinks about the consequences. Today, he dared to ruin Xu Ruoyao's face for Ling Xue, and tomorrow, he dared to make even more crazy moves for Ling Xue! ”

"Now, he has made many enemies, which is bound to attract enemies to seek revenge. If the two of them were together at this time, Ling Xue would only become his weakness! He will also become a weapon for the enemy to wield him! ”

Red Shadow suddenly realized: "It's still the prince who thinks about it thoroughly, but the county lord still doesn't understand the good intentions of the prince." ”

Ye Lingxiao said: "She doesn't need to understand. ”

After Ling Xue returned home, she locked herself in the house.

Originally, she planned to tell her brother what was on her mind, but before she could open her mouth, he poured a basin of cold water on her.

Depressed, she locked herself in the house, didn't go out to eat dinner, and after bathing, she lay on the couch and was alone in a daze.

Yuzhu was afraid that she would be hungry, so she specially made some food for her and sent it over.

"County Lord, you haven't eaten all day today, the slave maid has boiled you a bowl of bird's nest porridge, you can eat it while it's hot."

Ling Xue lay on the soft collapse dying, without lifting her eyelids, and said, "Let it go, I don't want to eat it now." ”

Yuzhu lightly put the porridge on the table, turned to look at Ling Xue, and exclaimed: "The county lord's clothes are so beautiful today, this amber color is very good for your complexion, why didn't you see the county lord wear it in the past?" ”

Ling Xue fiddled with the hem of her sleeves casually and said, "This is what Weiyang asked the embroidery lady to tailor for me a few days ago, and I only sent it today." ”

Yuzhu said: "No wonder, the slave maid hasn't seen you through before." ”

Ling Xue said: "Is it good-looking?" ”

Yuzhu praised from the bottom of her heart: "It's good-looking, the county lord dresses plainly on weekdays, and the slave has never seen the county lord wear such beautiful clothes." ”

"The county lord should wear it to show the prince and the generals/soldiers, they will definitely think it will be very good-looking."

Speaking of this, Yuzhu said: "Speaking of which, General Nie/the military also specially asked the slave maid why you didn't go to dinner, and if you were unwell." ”

Ling Xue's eyes trembled, she slowly sat up straight from the soft collapse, and asked with some expectation, "Then what did you say?" ”

Yuzhu said: "The slave didn't dare to talk nonsense, only said that you were tired, so you didn't go to dinner." ”

"And what did he say?"

Yuzhu said: "He didn't say anything, and went back to the room after dinner." ”

"Oh." When Ling Xue heard this, she lay down boredly on the soft collapse.

She wanted to go to Nie Junheng, but she didn't dare not listen to her brother's words. Even if I look so good today, I can only show it to myself.

Yuzhu said: "If the county lord feels bored, the slave and maid should talk to the county lord." ”

Ling Xue didn't want to talk to Yuzhu, she just wanted to see Nie Junheng, and she just wanted to talk to him.

But she didn't dare to go to him, and if she let her brother know, maybe she would really lock herself up in the mansion, and she wouldn't be allowed to go anywhere.

Although my brother spoils her on weekdays, he is really energetic, he is fierce, even more fierce than his father.

Ling Xue didn't dare to come with him, everyone in this mansion was in awe of her brother, and she was also afraid.

"Yuzhu, you step down, I want to be alone, don't bother me!"

Seeing this, Yuzhu said: "The slave and maid retreated first, and the bird's nest porridge is on the table, you remember to drink it." ”

When leaving, Yuzhu said: "If the county lord really doesn't want to drink, just rest early, the slave and maid will extinguish the fire for the county lord." ”

Ling Xue said: "Keep it, I can't sleep anyway." ”

After Yuzhu left, Ling Xue lay on the couch, tossing and turning, and when she was bored, she took off the hosta on her head and played with it in her hand.

A green silk hair was not bound by a hosta, and it hung down like satin, flowing on its back.

Ling Xue looked at the hosta against the candle flame carefully, and the candlelight passed through the hosta, lining the flower bones on it exquisitely clear, which was very beautiful.

After watching it for a long time, she put the hosta in her heart with longing, and she didn't know what she thought, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but smile.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, Ling Xue thought it was Yuzhu, and said, "I said let me be quiet, don't come in!" ”

There was an abrupt pause at the knock on the door, and a moment later, a familiar voice was heard.

"Okay, you have a good rest."

Ling Xue suddenly came back to her senses, and immediately got up and opened the door, only to see that Nie Junheng was about to turn around and leave.

"Why are you here?"

Ling Xue was surprised and delighted, and her tone could not hide her excitement.

Nie Junheng paused, turned to look at her, and then was stunned, his eyes could not hide his amazement.

Today, she is different from the past, and she is too beautiful to be real.

An amber shirt makes her skin soft and smooth, as if she can wring out water, and the narrow waist perfectly outlines her graceful figure.

Her eyes are like water, her skin is like clotted fat, her long hair is like satin, and she hangs straight down her waist, which makes her more and more icy and beautiful.

With tenderness and wanton in his eyes, he handed over the food box in his hand and said, "You didn't eat dinner today, you must be hungry, right?" ”

"I asked Mama Zhao to make your favorite meal on weekdays for you alone, you can taste it, it's not to your liking."

He came to her with no other thoughts, just to bring her food.

By the way, see her again.

Ling Xue didn't take the food box in his hand, but directly pulled him into the room.

When she entered the house, she closed the door with her backhand, as if she were a thief.

Nie Junheng put the food box on the table and said with a smile: "I'm just bringing you food, I won't stay too long, you don't have to be so nervous." If you don't think it's right, I'll leave ...... right away."

Before he could finish speaking, the woman in front of him suddenly threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly.

Nie Junheng's whole body froze in place.

"Ling Xue, what's wrong with you?"

Ling Xue pressed her face against his chest, and said in an aggrieved tone: "Brother murdered me today, I am wronged in my heart, if you let me hug me, I may be in a better mood......

She didn't dare tell him what her brother had said today.

No matter what her brother's prejudice against him, in her heart, Nie Junheng is the best!. M

This time, she wasn't going to listen to her brother.

She likes Nie Junheng, even if her brother opposes it, even if the world opposes it, she wants to be with him.
