Chapter 189 Chapter 189
Arriving in a high-end tea house, An Chuxia waved to Xiao Er who came up to him, and Xiao Er immediately understood that there was already an appointment with someone here.

An Chuxia walked to the private room marked with orchids on the second floor, opened the door and saw Senior Brother Liu Fei who hadn't seen him for a long time, sitting by the window and looking at her with a smile.

The fragrance of tea was overflowing in the private room, An Chuxia walked over and sat cross-legged on the other side. The tea doctor in the middle cooked the tea ordered for them and left the room.

"Long time no see, Senior Brother Liu, be well!"

Liu Fei's eyes flickered, and he said, "Okay, everything is fine!"

An Chuxia found that the smile on Liu Fei's face was no longer as enthusiastic and sincere as before, and felt a little sad for him.

His father's unfeelingness and his mother's death may have dealt a heavy blow to him, but it's a pity that these outsiders couldn't bear it for him.

There was a brief silence in the private room, and the two drank tea silently.

An Chuxia looked at a cup of amber-colored tea soup in her hand, which was also her favorite type of black tea. Unexpectedly, Senior Brother Liu still remembered her preference.

"Why didn't you continue to go to the scientific research?"

A look of sadness flashed in Liu Fei's eyes, and he said in a hoarse voice, "I can no longer take the imperial examination."

An Chuxia looked up at him in surprise, with deep doubts in her eyes.

Liu Fei twitched the corner of his mouth: "That man made a fuss in the Yamen for being unfilial and disrespectful. The government has deprived me of my fame, and I will never be able to take the imperial examination again."

An Chuxia's face has never been so ugly. This warm-hearted and sincere boy was ruined by his father's unfeeling and selfishness.

An Chuxia didn't want to find out about other people's private affairs, but she still couldn't help but said, "If Brother Liu wants to tell, I'm willing to be that listener."

I don't know if it's because of this sentence, or because of the most sincere concern in An Chuxia's eyes without a trace of falsehood, which made Liu Fei, who has been holding on to the sadness in his heart, instantly blush.

It didn't know when the winter rain started outside, the streets outside were empty, and there were very few pedestrians.

The sky was foggy, with light rain, blowing the cold wind that belongs to winter, even in the south, it was cold enough to make people shiver.

An Chuxia reached out to close the open window, retracted her hand and silently drank the tea in her hand.

At this time, a man rang out from the private room, letting out a sad voice in his heart: "Then you and I went home to prepare for the provincial exam, but I didn't pay attention, someone drugged the meal, and suddenly fell ill when the exam was approaching.

Originally, my mother and I thought it was because of too much pressure before the exam, so I got sick.

I didn't expect my mother to accidentally find out that I was sick because of my father's concubine, and Aunt Zhen was afraid that I was too good.

After I became an official in the imperial examination, I would take revenge on their mother and son, and suppress our main house in front of my father, so I bribed the servant who served me to give me medicine. "

An Chuxia followed the gap left by the window, watched the raindrops falling from the eaves outside, and listened quietly.

"My mother became weak after she learned that I had been drugged, so she got angry and called several doctors to help me check my body.

With enough evidence, find that man, and send Aunt Zhen's mother and son to the government to be sentenced for murdering a son-in-law.

The man was unwilling, and during the dispute, the mother was pushed down by the man.

Because she happened to fall on a huge ornamental vase, the mother was stabbed to the vitals by the broken porcelain..."

Speaking of this, Liu Fei's eyes had turned red and gloomy, and he gritted his teeth tightly to keep his emotions from breaking down.

An Chuxia reached out and grabbed Liu Fei's hand on the table, and called out softly and peacefully, "Senior brother!"

Liu Fei looked at Junior Sister An's calm face, the concern in his eyes, with a soothing whisper, slowly calming down his resentful mood.

"Stop talking, I haven't seen you for many years, I'm going to invite my brother to have a drink today." An Chuxia said softly.

"This matter has been in my heart for many years, and I feel better when I say it.

Do you know why that man ruined my imperial examination right after killing my mother? "

Liu Fei gritted his teeth, and continued as if talking to himself: "Hehe, he is afraid that I will seek revenge from them when I become stronger~"

On this day, An Chuxia reunited with Senior Brother Liu, who had been in a trough in his life after a long absence. The two of them found a tavern.

This time An Chuxia was really drunk, and when she went to the yamen the next day, everyone saw her slumped and teased her.

It seems that her appearance reminds everyone that she did some excessive exercise last night.

An Chuxia didn't explain, anyway, she came to the yamen every day, and no one sent her to handle official affairs, so An Chuxia, who was suffering from a hangover and headache, leaned back on the chair and closed her eyes to rest with peace of mind.

So blatantly dawdling around in the Jiangzhou government office, Jiang Zhirou was worried for her, and every time he saw her, he had a look of hatred.

Seeing her authority being snatched away, Jiang Zhirou was so angry that she almost went up and kicked her half-teacher, half-friend.

Where did her bravery and wisdom go before? Could it be that she was wrong, or was she really confused by the beautiful man sent by the magistrate, and she started not doing her job properly.

An Chuxia would be in the study every night, listening to what An Zixi had inquired about from the market, and this matter was reported to He Zhifu by the eyeliner.

After thinking about it, He Zhifu couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, it's just a little girl who likes to listen to gossip.

She is really a female official who came from a small place, but she just can't get on the stage.

"He Lang, come here quickly! A woman with little knowledge, even if she becomes an official, she won't be able to achieve much.

There are people sent by her side to watch, if it can't fly out of our palms, if it doesn't come over again, I'm going to be angry. "

"You fairy..."

The two of them rolled together while they were talking, and the person who spoke in the room was the just and awe-inspiring Zhifu He.

Just when He Zhifu and the woman were fighting in full swing, An Chuxia sneaked into the study of the official mansion not far from the government office for the second time, where the Zhifu's family lived.

The old emperor asked her to search for evidence of embezzlement in building dams. An Chuxia found nothing now. She had just arrived and was unfamiliar with the place of life. She also checked the books of the dams built on the books over the years.

Seeing her keep turning the pages, others thought she had nothing to do to be bored, and didn't think that she could remember the contents of the account books so quickly.

On the surface, the accounts that seem normal can no longer be normal. There is no loophole, such a neat account book.

It's abnormal in itself, and I don't know if the person who made the account book did it on purpose, or to show his ability to balance accounts.
