Beauty has a disease

Chapter 102 Goodbye
Ember guessed exactly what was going on in the official's mind with just one glance. She was speechless, and the look in the official's eyes became more and more strange.

Is this the virtue of the officials sent by the imperial court to deal with the flood?It's not good for officials like them to run to the door openly and clamor in broad daylight?
Ember felt it was funny in her heart, so she acted like this and laughed out loud.

"My lord, don't think too much about it. I came this time because of Duan Ge's instruction. I know that this is where the adults work, so don't enter it rashly. I hope the adults will pass it on for you."

The official's tense body relaxed, but he didn't let go of his vigilant expression much. He was dubious, as if judging the truth of Ember's words.

"My name is Ember, and it only needs to be passed on by the adults to know the truth."

Officials waver.

Ember sighed, she suppressed those impolite words, and tried her best to say euphemistically: "My lord, if I really want to do something in the open day, I would do it now, and I won't talk to you... explain."

The official frowned, thinking about it for the same reason, he then nodded, "Stay here and don't move, I'll go and tell Mr. Duan Ge."

Ember nodded, said thank you, and watched the officials run in.

The yard is not that big, and the official was able to turn around and look at her several times while running in a short distance. After confirming whether she was dishonest or not, Ember couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, and flashed across her exposed eyes. A smile.

I don't know who such a simple and straightforward official is. Unlike those who have a heart for the city and are used to intrigue, he is really a Langyuan fairy who emerges from the mud and does not get stained.

Not long after the official went in, he came out after a person, and it was Duan Chang.

Ember stopped her smile, and couldn't help standing up straight until Duan Chang stood in front of her, then Ember clasped her fists and performed a courteous manner to Duan Chang, "Old Duan Ge."

Duan Chang first waved his hands at the curious official, signaling him to do something, and then turned his eyes back to Ember, looking him up and down.

After a while, Duan Chang nodded to Ember and said, "It looks pretty good."

After saying that, he stepped out of the threshold and waved to Ember, "Come with me."

Ember followed obediently.

Duan Chang took Ember to another yard, but there was no one in the yard at this time, Duan Chang greeted Ember to sit down, poured a cup of tea for Ember himself, and pushed Ember over, flattering Ember.

"This is my current residence in Jiangnan." Duan Chang explained first, telling her that this place is safe in a disguised form.

Ember tore off the silk mask.

"How have you been recently?" Duan Chang asked.

After reuniting after a long absence, it seems that most people would say things like "you are safe" and "how are you doing recently", but now that she is here, Ember feels a little novelty.

"not bad."

There is nothing new in the question and answer, because most of the words are like this, no matter whether it is good or not, it is always right to answer this sentence.

Duan Chang nodded, and didn't care, both he and she knew that this sentence was just nonsense, and the next words were the key point.

"I have been away for more than a year, what do you think?"

Can any idea?Ember shook her head, saying no.

"Is it really not, or is it an excuse in front of me?" Duan Chang's words approached a step closer.

"Really do not have."

"Really?"

Ember raised her head, looked at Duan Chang for a moment, and laughed, "Then what ideas should my grandfather think I should have, why don't you tell me?"

With Ember saying "grandfather", the tense atmosphere between the two suddenly dissipated, and Duan Chang's sharp eyebrows and eyes gradually relaxed. He picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup, and said with a smile: "The conditions here are difficult, and there is no good tea. Here to entertain you, let's just settle down."

An irrelevant sentence, like some kind of signal, the aura of the two of them calmed down, and they came and went, as if they had returned to the days in Duan's mansion.

"Where do you live?" Duan Chang asked.

"Live in Wang's house." Ember replied.

"I'm not asking you this." Duan Chang shook his head and said, "I'm asking where you went after you left the capital."

Ember raised her hand and tapped her chin, analyzing Duan Chang's words in her head. This sentence seemed to be caring, but it could also be a question of guilt, but no matter what it meant, she had to answer. The answer must not be just the place of residence, but the answer. Bring life and action with you naturally.

Ember thought for a moment, and then briefly told Duan Chang that he lived in a small town in the Northland, and told some interesting things about life that were neither painful nor itchy.

Duan Chang was overjoyed, he stretched out his hand to light the embers and asked with a smile: "Are you complaining about not being free at home, living alone without you?"

Ember just smiled, noncommittal.

Duan Chang also had no intention of pursuing this matter, he said: "I thought you would go back to Qin'an County in the northwest."

Ember: "Qin'an has been staying for a long time, and I want to live in another place."

"My people can't find you." Duan Chang continued.

The arc of Ember's lips flattened, and she said, "It's mine, don't blame grandpa."

"It's all in the past." Duan Chang said, "Now that you are here, those things are not important."

Well, it doesn't matter anymore.

Ember lowered her eyes, hiding thousands of thoughts.

"The one at home is not as good as you now." Duan Chang said suddenly.

The one at home, which one is it?

Ember blinked, and quickly realized that Duan Chang was referring to the current "Duan Qingwu".

The corners of her mouth curled up again, she smiled, and said: "I think she is better than me, after all, I'm not very secure, she can always stay in the house peacefully... and be a dignified lady at home. "

"An Fen?" Duan Chang snorted, the meaning was unclear, "Qing Wu, you also learned how to do Tai Chi with me, I don't know if she is safe or not?"

Ember smiled, noncommittal.

"I'm old, I may not know who she is, who is behind her, but even if I am old and faint, I will not even recognize my granddaughter. She is just a fake, and the fake can be safe. ?”

Duan Chang sneered, took a sip of his tea and shook his head, "They are all gossip-mongers."

As soon as the word idiot was uttered, Ember heard it fresh.

Duan Chang has been in a high position for many years, he is imposing, knowledgeable and elegant, she has never heard Duan Chang call someone a fool, she finds it strange.

"Why did grandfather say that?"

Duan Chang glanced at Ember, satisfied Ember's curiosity, and said leisurely, "She thought that our Duan family recognized her under pressure, so she really became the young lady of our Duan family."

Is not it?The fact is that "Duan Qingwu" has become a veritable young lady of the Duan family in the eyes of everyone in Beijing, and even the world, while the former one is a fake impostor.

"She is greedy, she is greedy for her status, and she wants other things."
