Chapter 19 Widow?widower?
Du Heng raised his eyebrows, "What do you mean by that? Don't we already know each other?"

But Xue Feibai on the opposite side closed his eyes, looking like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water.

No matter how tightly Ren Duheng tightened his neck, he would not speak.

Why, can she still commit murder in the East Palace?
Seeing his appearance like this, Du Heng let go of his hand instead, and smiled indifferently.

"Do you think that if you don't speak, I won't be able to guess and I can't help you? Then let's talk about it from the beginning."

Xue Feibai turned his head and closed his eyes to rest his mind.

"Xue Xiaolang, we had a marriage contract first, but you just obviously wanted to assassinate me - overheard the secrets of the royal family, even my father can't keep me;

But just now you have another expression of recognizing me and wanting to eat the flesh, as if you have discovered that I am your enemy again.Then I must have done something to apologize to you, but you didn't know it was me at the time..."

When Du Heng said this, he suddenly thought of something. She thought of Xue Feibai's stiff body movements and not daring to break free.

Thinking of doing it, Du Heng immediately patted Xue Feibai's back heavily.

Immediately, Xue Feibai became no longer calm, and immediately let out a painful hissing sound, stepped back a foot away from Du Heng, and shouted: "What are you doing!"

Du Heng knew it clearly: "It turned out to be you, the one who stole Sheng Yusheng's secret letter."

Xue Feibai was so angry that his lungs exploded, and he wanted to poke Du Heng's nose with his fingertips: "You still have the face to say it! Do you want to hurt me again now?"

Du Heng curled his lips into a smile indifferently, folded his arms around his chest,
"Since you dare to be a thief, you must have the consciousness of being beaten half to death; besides, it is the residence of a high-ranking official, so what you stole is not ordinary.

Don't blame me, I don't want to pursue why you, a family member, went to someone else's house for theft, and we don't owe anything to each other..."

Xue Fei has lived in vain for so many years, and this is the first time he sees such a shameless person, why should she not pursue it?
She has always been unlucky, what did she lose?Besides, she also stole a secret letter from herself that day.

She retreated with all her beard and tail, but it was all based on her own blood and tears!

Xue Feibai instinctively felt a wave of anger go straight to Tianling Gai: "What if I just want to blame? Is Ms. Du planning to kill me?"

Du Heng looked at him with great interest, as if he was watching some prey struggling to death, and said something that made Xue Feibai's hairs stand on end and he couldn't figure it out:

"Xue Feibai, since you want to be honest, let's open the skylight and speak frankly.

It must not be the first time that you are so familiar with assassinating me; as for the last time in your Xue family, on your territory, wouldn't it be easy for you to do something?
It should be you who hinted that the person who killed Du Zhilan—that is, my second sister Du Ruolan, came to frame me!
And I injured my head earlier and almost died, I guess it was you who did it! "

Thinking of this, Du Heng secretly sighed in his heart: It's not almost, it's already.The real Du Heng is dead.

"If you don't like me and want to dissolve the engagement, the worst thing is to say it outright, and I may not agree; but the way you choose is to treat others like nothing and assassinate their lives.

That being the case, then let me tell you, Xue Xiaolang, that I will fight to the death with you for this engagement!As for who wins the game, whichever of us will be a widow or widower first will depend on our ability;

You owe me three times, I can accept your trick, I hope you don't let me down too.Let's meet again in Shanshui, let's wait and see! "

After speaking, Du Heng never looked at Xue Feibai again, and left with a cold face.

Xue Feibai was secretly startled, this crazy critic was both smart and dangerous, and it seemed that he would have ended her sooner; but now that he has already scared the snake, it is not so easy to do it...

As for Du Heng's threat to him, he really didn't take it seriously, but in the future he would know that it was such a big mistake.

***
Wu Youdong was about to take office, and as expected, Du Shengping had arranged for him absolutely no good place.

At the beginning, he was recommended to go to the Guangdong and Guangxi regions to be the procurator for criminal punishment.Du Heng thought for a while, and suggested that he should go to the Yunnan-Guizhou area.

It doesn't matter to Du Shengping, whether it's the Bashu region, Yunnan-Guizhou region, or Guangdong and Guangxi, the people's customs have not been developed, and the people's wisdom has not been enlightened, and they are all barbarian lands.

He went to be responsible for the punishment, and some were tired.

Du Heng participated in and read "Baxian Archives", in which the phenomenon of abduction and trafficking of women and children abounds.

Even she herself was almost abducted back then. If she hadn't been able to defend herself with martial arts and had hidden guards at home, she might have been "raised with children" by now.

The difficulty of Shu Dao is as difficult as reaching the sky!
The land of Yunnan and Guizhou is even worse, because of the complex terrain of Yunnan and Guizhou, it is difficult to reclaim farmland for animal husbandry in some areas, and it is normal for local people to sell their children and daughters;
Even if you are not sold by your parents, if someone photographs Hanako, under the cover of this terrain, once a child or woman is photographed, it will be difficult to find and even more difficult to arrest;

As a result, local human trafficking not only cannot be banned, but also becomes more and more rampant.

Human traffickers buy at low prices and sell at high prices, making Yunnan-Guizhou almost an ideal place for human trafficking:
"Abduction of children, abuse and cruelty, the most vicious"

"There are those who kill their husbands and bind their wives, those who kill their parents and bind their children"...

There are too many to enumerate, all of which are true and recorded in historical materials.

Wu Youdong is a pure minister, and he has the country in his heart. Letting him go to Yunnan and Guizhou will benefit the local people without any harm.

When he goes to Yungui, it will not only be convenient for him to flex his muscles, but also he won't have to stay in the capital all day to intrigue.

When the transfer order from the Ministry of Officials came out, there was a small episode. Wu Youdong also served as the prefect of Chuncheng.

In other words, if Wu Youdong wanted to make drastic changes in prisons in Yunnan with Spring City as a point, he probably wouldn't be able to stop him, so that's great.

When the Lin family's entire family was copied and beheaded, it was also at the time when the Ministry of Officials was recruiting, and there were many new faces in Beijing.

Even many wealthy businessmen who are small officials have come here, waiting for the opportunity to find the right person to buy an official with their gold and silver treasures.

It's true: Jade seeks a good price in the dowry, and the hairpin waits for time to fly in the dowry.

This is Du Heng's chance!

Du Heng came out of the East Palace that day and returned home in a carriage.

Along the way, she lifted the curtains of the car and stared thoughtfully at the people coming and going on the street.

After returning home, I drew the portrait on the paper over and over again, until it was revised several times, and then I was satisfied with drying it and putting it away. Looking at its posture and expression, it was like treating it like a treasure.

Jing Se glanced quietly, it was Xue Xiaolang, the lady's fiancé-in-law.

Jing Se can't say too beautiful words, but when she looked at Xue Xiaolang in this painting, it was like "picking up flowers and drinking wine, laughing, laughing, angry and foolish" vividly on the paper.

She never knew that Xue Xiaolang was good-looking, but he was able to show him so beautifully in the painting;

She also didn't know that the people in the paintings were actually more beautiful than real people.

oh!She thought of it, the young lady must have seen Xue Xiaolang with such emotions before to be able to paint so vividly!

It's a good thing for Miss to care so much about her fiancé-in-law.

The young lady doesn't like to talk, and it's common for her to write poems and books by herself, circling back and forth between the painting table and the chessboard.

Although today's young lady is also so lonely, Jingse obviously feels different.

The difference seems to be that the former lady was trying to reduce the sense of existence as carefully as possible;
But today's young lady, no matter how taciturn she is, looks at her from afar, as if she should shine brightly, and one day she will stand among the crowd.
