Chapter 117

Su Yi thought he was an old fox, but today he bumped into a wall and ran into a little fox.

He took another sip of tea, knowing that it would be useless to ask further questions, so he proposed to go to the fields to have a look.

Su Mo naturally agreed, and immediately got up to lead the way.

Instead of taking a carriage, the group walked directly to the field, and on the way they ran into the village head who was coming to Gu's house.

It was also Fang Shi who introduced the other party briefly, and Su Yi also skipped the village chief's salute and asked him to follow and go to the field together.

The wind was strong over the wheat field, and Su Mo walked ahead to lead the way, pulling her clothes slightly tighter, and the broken hair on her forehead fluttered in a mess.

At the bottom of the mountain, that is, at the edge of the innermost field, the wind finally weakened. Su Mo raised her hand and rubbed her stiff face, and smiled at Su Yi.

"Master Su, this is the seven acres of land."

Su Yi nodded slightly, winking at Qin Zheng who was beside him.

Soon, Qin Zheng took a blueprint from the black armored guard beside him.

Su Mo noticed that Fang Shi looked away when he saw the blueprint, and immediately lowered his head as if he couldn't see it.

As for the village chief, he has always bowed his waist and lowered his head.

Qin Zheng unfolded the drawing, first to confirm whether this place is the saline-alkali land recorded on the map, and then asked the rest of the black armored guards to check the fields near the wheat field.

Although the surrounding fields belonged to Su Mo, Su Mo didn't use the soil quality improvement liquid for others to be on the safe side.

It's just that when water was released to wash the fields, the water flowed to the surrounding fields, which would affect one or two of them to some extent.

The black-armored guards checked carefully, and even prepared a hoe, and dug holes in different places in the nearby fields. After confirming that the soil in those fields was salty and still saline-alkali, they went back to report.

Su Yi was walking around the wheat field, reaching out to fiddle with the ears of wheat from time to time. Su Mo guessed that he was making sure that the ears of wheat were empty or solid, and his eyes flickered.

After looking at the fields and ears of wheat, Su Yi already had a plan in mind.

Recalling what Emperor Jingyong had explained, he shook his sleeves, straightened his messy hair blown by the wind, and walked back to them without changing his expression.

"Let's go."

Following Su Yi's words, Fang Shi and the others responded quickly and went straight back to Gu's house.

Su Yi and Qin Zheng got into the carriage directly, two black armored guards sat on the shaft, and the other eight black armored guards surrounded the carriage.

Fang Shi knew that Su Yi and Qin Zheng were guarding against him, so he followed Su Mo to the door without showing it.

"The Chinese New Year is approaching, and there are a lot of things in the county government. If the two of them come here again in the past few days, you must be careful and don't let your mouth slip."

Fang Shi whispered.

People in positions of power are inevitably suspicious by nature, soil quality improvement is too important, at this juncture, if his relationship with Su Zhiyuan is exposed, Emperor Jing Yong will definitely guess whether this matter is a conspiracy.

But he found Su Zhiyuan's daughter but concealed it, and the fourth prince would also think that he had a different heart.

He wanted to climb to high places since he was a child.

He wants to be a master, he can't lose!
If there is an accident, then...

Fang Shi glanced across the courtyard of Gu's family, and the murderous intent flashed across.

Su Mo was always cautious, so naturally he didn't miss the look in his eyes, and his heart tightened at the moment.

"This matter is related to the official career of the brother-in-law, and I know it all."

Su Mo calmed down her thoughts, her eyes met Fang Shi frankly, with a faint smile on her face, like a good sister who cared about her elder brother.

Fang Shi was slightly taken aback, and then smiled.

"On the second day of the new year, I'll have someone pick you up to my house. We, brothers and sisters, will call Shang Yue again and have a reunion dinner together."

Back to my mother's house in the second grade.

Su Mo blinked, yearning in her eyes, but she didn't know what to think of, she shook her head, her eyes swept over the carriage where Su Yi and Qin Zheng were sitting, neither agreed nor refused.

"Let's see later."

"to make."

Fang Shi understood immediately, nodded slightly, and prepared to leave.

"It's cold outside, let's go back to the house."

Su Mo nodded in response, but her body did not move. She watched Fang Shi get into the carriage before turning around and entering the house.

At the same time, the smile on his face dissipated, his brows and eyes were cold, and there was a chill.

As for Fang Shi in the scene of brothers and sisters respecting each other just now, after getting into the carriage, his face turned cold for a moment, and he rubbed his fingertips against the edge of the window, wondering what he was thinking.

And in another carriage.

Su Yi opened the secret compartment, and there was a small stove inside, which was standing on the charcoal fire, and beside it was a whole set of tea sets.

After brewing the tea, he picked it up and took a sip, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Good tea."

Su Yi sighed, recalling the tea he drank at Gu's house, it was simply torture.

"Vice Commander Qin, would you like to try it too?"

Su Yi pointed to another cup of tea.

Qin Zheng didn't refuse, picked it up, but drank it in one gulp, then put down the teacup.

Seeing Su Yi's heart choked, and he was about to speak, saying that drinking tea should not be so rude, but he swallowed the words again when he met the expressionless face.

They have been together without incident for more than a month, but they have forgotten the "prestige" of the black armor guard.

The older you get, the more confused you become!
He straightened his body and looked more serious.

"Vice Commander Qin, the matter of improving the soil quality has now been concluded.

After returning to the county office, I went out in the afternoon to ask around.

Tomorrow, the lower officials will read out the imperial decree, and on the same day, they will take Mr. Fang along the official road and leave Yaozhou.

As for your side..."

Qin Zheng didn't answer him, but coughed lightly, and soon, the curtain of the car was lifted, and the black armored guard sitting on the seat bent over and entered.

"Take off the mask."

The black armored guard who came in immediately took off his mask, revealing a face that was almost the same as Qin Zheng's.

Seeing this, Su Yi finally felt more at ease.

"Deputy Commander Qin is well prepared, it's the lower officials who are worrying too much."

Qin Zheng pursed his lips and didn't speak. He just gave another black armored guard a wink. He immediately put on his mask, stooped and walked out.

Only then did Qin Zheng say: "There is nothing wrong with being cautious."

Su Yi nodded slightly, and the carriage became quiet again.

In the afternoon, both Su Yi and Qin Zheng changed into cotton clothes worn by ordinary people and went out through the back door of the county government office.

As soon as they went out, Qin Zheng sensed that someone was following them, he calmly reminded Su Yi, and then the two wandered around the county to inquire about the saline-alkali land.

Then he took a carriage, went out of the city gate, and went straight to the village near Luoshan Village.

After they left, a yamen servant came to ask them what they had said.

It was approaching the Chinese New Year, when the yamen servants came to the door, the villagers were very frightened, and they dared to hide it, so they should tell the truth about the conversation between them immediately.

All the way down, I asked about the saline-alkali land.

When Fang Shi in the county government heard the news, his eyes flickered slightly, and he immediately asked all the servants to come back.

An old fox who has been in the officialdom, how can he easily grasp something.

He sent away the yamen servants, changed his clothes, and took Shi Yi to leave through the back door.

Not long after leaving, Eleven came closer and reminded in a low voice: "My lord, someone is following."

There was a faint smell on Eleven, a bit like the smell of grass and trees after the rain. Fang Shi lowered his eyes to cover the disgust in his eyes, but it didn't show on his face.

His pace remained the same, but the Hu's house he was going to was changed to Fang Yue's tailor shop.

 After 22 years of human fireworks, he still tirelessly pursues the day and night.
