Beauty has a disease

Chapter 106
Teng Yanjun waited for a long time for the embers to arrive, and couldn't help falling asleep in the middle of the night, while Wang Xingzhi stayed up all night, and the more he waited, the more anxious he became.

But he can't do anything, except to send more people out to find someone, the rest can only wait.

Hope nothing happens.

The day turned into night, and the night turned into day again. The next morning was not as cool and clear as before, because the clouds did not disperse, the rain continued, and the sun did not appear.

Around noon, Ember finally came back, but when she came back, she was drenched and looked tired, with some holes in her clothes, which seemed to be scratched by something like a branch, and she was a little embarrassed.

"What's wrong with you?"

Wang Xingzhi hurriedly welcomed Ember in, then ordered the kitchen to boil some hot ginger soup, and pushed Ember to change clothes.

"Be careful of catching a cold."

Teng Yanjun ran out when he heard the sound, regardless of the rain, he hugged Ember and murmured: "Sister, why did you come back, I thought you didn't want me anymore."

"How come, I just have something to do, and I didn't have time to tell you."

Ember patted her, "Come into the house, it's raining and you're going to get wet."

Only then did Teng Yanyun notice Ember's distress, and hurriedly dragged Ember into the house, handed over a towel to find clothes, and while busy working, he kept talking about how she didn't know how to take care of herself, which made Ember quite funny.

Ember couldn't help pinching Teng Yanjun's nose, and said with a smile: "I just realized that Yanyun used to talk so much. He's not very young, but he has a lot to worry about."

"I'm going to become an old woman." Ember joked.

Teng Yanyun wrinkled her nose, turned her head to avoid it, "Sister, don't move around." Then, Teng Yanjun straightened Zheng Ember's head and continued to wipe her head.

"Okay, okay, that's it."

Ember got up, put on a clean outer shirt and tied it tightly, and went outside.

"Where are you going?" Wang Xingzhi was about to knock on the door with ginger soup in hand, when he bumped into Ember who pushed the door open.

"Business."

Wang Xingzhi frowned, "You don't know the places in the south of the Yangtze River well, what business can you be busy with?"

After a pause, he asked again, "Is it related to what happened last night?"

Embers said yes.

Wang Xingzhi pushed the embers back with one hand, put down the tray in his hand and began to interrogate, "What's so urgent that you don't want to return at night, come back in a hurry and go out again?"

Seeing that Ember was silent, Wang Xingzhi pushed the ginger soup in front of Ember, motioned her to drink it, and continued: "Although this is your private matter and I have no right to ask about it, you must give me some information, so we can't make us worry about it." .”

Wang Xingzhi's face was not very good-looking.

In fact, Ember wanted to explain what Wang Xingzhi asked after the first question, but he didn't think of how to say it for a while, and Wang Xingzhi seemed to have misunderstood.

So Ember hurriedly said, "It's my fault, I didn't come to inform you in advance, it's just that the incident happened suddenly and the time was short, and I didn't have much time left, so I ignored it, sorry."

Wang Xingzhi's face softened a bit, but it still seemed a little smelly upon closer inspection.

"It rained suddenly yesterday."

Wang Xingzhi nodded, as if he had found a clue, but he didn't quite understand the relationship between the rain and what she did.

"Fearing that the river might break its embankment, I was ordered to take people to evacuate the people downstream. Now the people have been evacuated, but they will be arranged later, so I have to go out."

Wang Xingzhi heard every word of the words clearly and understood them all, but he couldn't understand all the words together.

"Isn't this a matter of the government?" Wang Xingzhi looked at Ember with a puzzled expression on his face, "You said you were 'ordered', but whose order was it? The government?"

"Yes." Ember nodded, and she said, "I am following the orders of Elder Duan Ge to evacuate the people."

"Elder Duan Ge?!"

"Old Duan Ge!"

After Ember said Duan Chang, two exclamations followed, one from Teng Yanyun and one from Wang Xingzhi.

"Sister, are you talking about the old Duan Ge who admitted to the false granddaughter at the beginning?"

Ember nodded and said yes, she walked out, "I'll tell you the rest when I come back."

Ember stepped out of the threshold after speaking to Wang Xingzhi, this time Wang Xingzhi didn't stop him again, and he understood the reason why things had to be prioritized.

But...Wang Xingzhi looked complicated as he watched Ember's back gradually disappear from sight.

Now, he finally knew the purpose of Ember coming to Jiangnan.

only……

Who is she?

People from the government?
Wang Xingzhi retracted his gaze and landed on the steaming ginger soup on the table, "It's broken!"

Didn't drink ginger soup!

Teng Yanjun and Wang Xingzhi almost spoke at the same time, she clapped her hands and said, "It's broken!"

Wang Xingzhi looked over and saw Teng Yanyun with a bitter face, "I forgot to ask my sister to wear a pair of warm sleeves!"

Cold arms hurt.

On the other side, Ember first went to the temporary office of the officials in the capital, and she wanted to find Duan Chang.

Before entering the door, I heard the sound of chattering, some people were anxious and others were arguing, when Ember entered the room and saw the expressions of all the officials, and Duan Chang with his back to her, he knew in his heart that the situation was going to be very serious. Not too optimistic.

"It's you? Why are you here again?" Li Lue recognized the person immediately after seeing the embers, and he looked impatient, "Girl, we are here for officials to work, not for you to find someone, and everyone is busy now , I don’t have time to care about you. Girl, let’s go quickly.”

After hearing Li Lue's words, the officials looked over one by one, and their faces were not very good-looking. This time it was not because of the flood, but because they didn't care about the embers.

"Yes, girl, go away, this is not where you should come."

Because of Duan Chang's presence, although these officials looked impatient, they still didn't say anything serious and drove her away.

After hearing the words, Ember only nodded to the officials, but did not move, "I'm looking for Mr. Duan."

"It's all said..."

"You're here." Duan Chang turned around aloud,

"Ge Lao?" Someone voiced his confusion.

"I called her here." Duan Chang explained, "This flood requires her assistance."

"Need her help?" Kou Zhun disagreed: "Mr. Ge, it's not that I reject her, nor do I look down on her, but that flood control is the job of us officials, and we specialize in art. She is an outsider, and she is an outsider." Girl, how can I help you?"

"That's right, Mr. Ge. Flood control is inherently complicated. Now that the estuary has burst its embankment again, the original efforts will be wiped out. What role can she have?"

With Kou Zhun leading the way, dissatisfied officials questioned him one after another.

It's not that they disobeyed Duan Chang and did not obey Duan Chang's arrangements to challenge his authority, but that this matter itself was absurd and unprecedented.

Duan Chang raised his hand to press down, signaled the officials to be quiet, and said: "I know you are not convinced, but you can't look at the surface, it rained suddenly yesterday, and the estuary burst again, did any of you think of going to evacuate the people? "
