Daliang female chief assistant

Chapter 20
Seeing his eloquence, Wang Youxian didn't say anything anymore.

A group of people came to the gate of the city and were just about to enter the city.

I saw a black horse galloping not far away, rolling up yellow sand all over the sky.

Zhou Hui was so anxious that he was about to go out of the city to look for the two of them.

Unexpectedly, he saw them at the gate of the city.

He rode over anxiously, came to Wen Yuting, got off the horse, knelt down and clasped his fists.

This was the first time Wen Yuting saw him respecting him so much.

Seeing his anxious face again, he understood.

Without waiting for him to speak, he said: "I have already guessed the purpose of your leaving the city, so there is no need to say more, let's hurry back to the city."

After finishing speaking, without giving Zhou Hui any reaction, he flicked the horsewhip in his hand.

The horse suffered from pain, raised its head and let out a long hiss, then kicked its hind legs, almost kicking Zhou Hui, and rushed into the city.

Wang Youxian followed closely behind.

Seeing this, Zhou Hui quickly got on his horse and followed into the city.

When Wen Yuting's horse almost kicked him, Zhou Hui complained slightly aggrieved.

"I think he just wants to see me make a fool of himself and avenge himself."

Zhou Shu imagined the scene at that time, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he said kindly: "Brother, this is because you were wrong first, and the young master should have resentment in his heart."

"What's more, if he didn't realize something was wrong in time and immediately brought people back to the city, I'm afraid I would have already entered Zhang Maoan's game by now."

After this incident, Zhou Hui completely changed his view of Wen Yuting.

He knew in his heart that he was prejudiced against him before.

This time, regardless of past suspicions, he helped Zhou Shu again. No matter what, he should thank him.

It's just that when I think about that person's pride and arrogance, if I go to apologize to him, I might be humiliated by him.

Thinking of this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Zhou Hui's face.

Touching his nose embarrassingly, "A Ci, I was wrong before, I shouldn't be prejudiced against him, after today's incident, I will definitely not underestimate him anymore."

In this case, he said the same thing last time at Zhou's house.

But turn around and forget.

Zhou Shu also deliberately used this to frustrate his conceited temper.

So he said: "Brother, since you have realized your mistake, why don't you go and apologize to Young Master?"

Although it was a discussion tone, it was beyond doubt in Zhou Hui's ears.

He shook his head without even thinking about it, met Zhou Shu's gaze, and faltered again.

"Okay, let's not take this as an example."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and went to Wen Yuting to apologize.

Both of them have the same conceited temperament, Zhou Shu can guess that they must break up unhappy without thinking about it.

She cupped her hands towards Wen Yuting.

"Today's matter, thank you little lord for helping me."

"No need." Wen Yuting held her hand, his eyes fell on her white and slender jade fingers, and he stroked them lightly.

"A Ci, your hands are so beautiful."

Zhou Shu was taken aback by the sudden mention of this topic.

The palm held by him was icy cold, and there was even a thin layer of cold sweat in the palm.

His fingers were as stiff as the twelfth lunar month, having been frozen for a day in the ice and snow.

After a long while, she withdrew her hand stiffly, moved the corners of her mouth dryly, and said in a trembling voice: "Young Master, you are happy to win the official position again."

"Xiaguan has been weak and sick since he was a child, and grew up with difficulty. Outsiders often say that Xiaguan lacks masculinity, and now he is just lucky enough to survive in the world."

There was a bit of sadness in his tone.

Seeing that Zhou Shu was poked into a sad past because of his unintentional words.

A trace of annoyance flashed across Wen Yuting's face, he obviously wanted to comfort her, but when she opened her mouth, it changed.

"Don't be too sad. I think you are fine now. Although you look weak, you don't look like you are terminally ill. If you can continue to live like this, you can be regarded as earning money."

After the words fell, Zhou Shu's face darkened instantly.

The eyes looking at him were also full of resentment, as if accusing him: Young Master, if you can't speak, you don't have to. No one will think you are dumb.

"Ahem——" Wen Yuting clenched his fists to his lips, rolled his eyes, and coughed lightly, trying to change the subject.

"Well, you came back so late, are the infected villagers settled properly?"

Hearing this, Zhou Shu nodded.

"It has been settled properly." After finishing speaking, he looked at him and asked: "Young Lord, how did you guess that Zhang Mao'an deliberately provoked the villagers' hostility towards the subordinate?"

"Have you ever thought about why there are villagers infected with the plague in Xiangzhou City?" Wen Yuting asked without answering.

"Of course it's because..." Before he could say anything, Zhou Shu suddenly realized.

"Young Lord, what do you mean, those villagers were not infected today, but those who were hidden by Zhang Maoan before, and he released them on purpose?"

Thinking of this possibility, Zhou Shu was furious.

That Zhang Mao'an is so careless about human life!
In order to frame her, he did not hesitate to gamble with the lives of the whole people.

"Zhou Shu, this Marquis said earlier in the morning that you illuminate the moon with all your loyalty, but the moon is covered by dark clouds. You use the power of ants to shake the towering trees. It's ridiculous."

"Although an ant is small, a mayfly can shake a tree." Looking at him with extremely firm eyes, "Young Lord, you are a low-level official, but you are not talented. After ten years of hard work on sage books, you have learned the way to share the worries of the country and the people." .”

"The ancients said: If you live in a high temple, you will worry about your people; if you live far away from the rivers and lakes, you will worry about your ruler."

"Now that the official is the official of the parents of Siyi County, he should do his part for the country, the people, and the country. If the official knows that someone is corrupt and violates the law, regardless of the life and death of the people, and deliberate, just to climb to the pinnacle of power, then the official What is the difference between officials and those people?"

"It's better to be an executioner than to be an executioner if you don't see and hear but don't hear."

A good sentence is not an executioner, but is better than an executioner.

Wen Yuting looked at her with a hint of approval in his black eyes.

After several trials, it is finally confirmed.

"Since that's the case, then you should let go and clean up this Xiangzhou City. With Benhou here, even if you break the sky of Xiangzhou City, Benhou will be able to protect you."

Zhou Shu was confused by his swearing.

"Young Master, you..."

"Zhou Shu, my surname is Wen. In this peaceful and prosperous age, my grandfather, father, uncle, and elder brothers risked their lives to protect it. More than anyone else, I hope that the people will live and work in peace and prosperity, and avoid wars and displacement. bitter."

Wen Yuting looked into the distance with deep eyes.

"As the saying goes, be prepared for danger in times of peace. Those civil servants have lived a peaceful life for a long time, but they forgot that they can have a stable life now. Thousands of military generals fought with their lives."

"Struggling for power and profit, forming cliques for personal gain, if all the courts are full of such people who deceive the superiors and conceal the truth, corrupt the law, greedy for life and fear of death, this Marquis, feel sorry for my grandfather, and feel sorry for the soldiers guarding the border."

I don't think he has such a mind to care about the world.

Zhou Shu looked solemn and solemn, and looked at him with eyes full of respect.

He bowed his hands solemnly to him, "Young Lord, on behalf of the people of the world, I thank Old General Wen for his righteousness, and the Wen family for their righteousness."

"I hope that there will be no wars in the four seas, and that this peaceful and prosperous world will last for thousands of years."

Wen Yuting: "This Marquis agrees with Mr. Zhou."
