But the bright moon shines on the ditch

The deep night is like ink that cannot be melted away, and the blackness is bottomless with one stroke.

The lights had not yet turned off in Xiaoqingyuan, and Liang Peiqiu was sitting on the low threshold, looking at the disk-like moon in the sky without blinking.After an unknown amount of time, a robe fell over his shoulders.

"It's late at night, be careful of catching a cold."

Liang Peiqiu raised her head in bewilderment, looking at the figure that had grown so tall before her eyes that almost blended into the moonlit night. After a long while, she gave a low response.

When this sound came out, it was like a flood released from a floodgate, completely disintegrating her strength and pretense, and she couldn't help but choke up.

Wang Yunxian had no choice but to sit next to her and put his arms around her shoulders. He smiled and said, "It's a good thing that there's no one around late at night and you still have a good brother like me to keep you company. Otherwise, you wouldn't know where to wipe your nose."

His generous palm gently brushed her shoulder, and his voice was soft and endearing, "Cry if you want, I won't tell anyone else."

Liang Peiqiu felt a warmth in the long cold night, and unconsciously leaned forward, half-burying her head into Wang Yunxian's chest. She sobbed at first, but then she became more and more uncontrollable, thinking about all the things she had experienced over the years, and finally burst into tears.

She cried until she was out of breath, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances she had suffered over the years, until Wang Yunxian cried until she was at a loss and her head hurt.

At first he was still looking cool and elegant, but then he noticed that his chest was wet. He was stunned for a moment, curled his lips, and worked on his mental construction for a long time. Then he couldn't stop looking at the crying baby in his arms, and gradually lost his patience and thought. What to say, he hesitated several times, but in the end his face became dark and sullen, and half of his body froze.

After Liang Peiqiu cried, she regained her composure and felt ashamed. She wiped Wang Yunxian's chest with her sleeves and muttered, "I'm sorry for soiling your clothes. Look back... turn around and have someone send you away." Come, let me clean it and give it back to you."

"You want to do my laundry?"

"Ah, can't you?"

Wang Yunxian lowered his head and knocked on her forehead with his finger: "Are you stupid for crying? Let's not mention that there is a special girl in the house who is responsible for washing clothes. You don't need to do it yourself. Even if you want to wash my clothes for me as a man, you have never thought about it. Any consequences?"

Liang Peiqiu really took a long time to recover, and her face turned red for a moment.

"I-I didn't mean that."

"What do you mean?" Wang Yunxian saw her blushing and deliberately prolonged her voice, "Xiao Qiuqiu, tell me honestly, have you given up on that man named Xu and have turned to me?"

Liang Peiqiu couldn't help but widen her eyes: "Wang Yunxian, what are you thinking about!"

She turned away in anger.

Wang Yunxian touched her nose, smiled and came closer, her warm breath caressing her shoulders, with a quiet and secret temptation unique to the night, "It's okay, as long as it's you, I have no taboos."

Liang Peiqiu was stunned for a moment, and then she wanted to say something, but she felt a bunch of black hair rubbing against her neck, itching, making her limbs stiff for an instant, and she didn't dare to move.

Wang Yunxian lazily looked like he was too sleepy to open his eyes, and yawned: "The kiln house has been taken care of, so you don't have to worry about the funeral of the watchmaker. I will follow up personally and keep it for you. Satisfied. Say no more, young master, I have been busy all day and the soles of my feet are almost worn out. I am so tired. Please allow me to lean on you."

After saying this, he fell asleep within a few breaths.

After all the nonsense he made, Liang Peiqiu felt quite sober.She opened her eyes wide and looked at the distant sky. Unexpectedly, the full moon had been obscured by dark clouds, leaving only a faint halo around her.

The halo was eaten away and swallowed up bit by bit, and finally, it completely turned into darkness.

**
I thought that the accident in the Anqing kiln and the defeat in the election for the "leading position" would bring the matter to an end. However, the vicious collapse of the kiln aroused public dissatisfaction, making the call for reform even louder, and the voice of crusade against Xu Zhiliu, the new member of the Three Kilns and Nine Hui, was also on duty. It got bigger and bigger, and civil unrest broke out all of a sudden, and the county government was busy suppressing it.

An Jiuyuan was still happily listening to the play in the Crane Pavilion. He and Zhou Yuan talked about it every now and then, joking that Xu Zhiliu had a holy heart, but his actions were not upright.

"Now I can see that the young man is always tough-talking. Do you think this counts as a win? Of course it counts as a win, but if he insists on saying something upright and kills people, what kind of serious ability can he do? But the result is still satisfactory. I will just be noble and not pursue him any further."

Just as he was feeling proud, he heard the gongs and drums sounding outside. An Jiu poked his neck out and said displeasedly, "These untouchables beat the gongs and drums in front of the sky and kept making noise, so that I couldn't sleep the whole night." Have a good sleep. Sir, could you please take a trip to see what is happening outside."

Zhou Yuan knew that ever since An Jiu sent someone to teach Liang Peiqiu a lesson for his mistake, he began to suspect that there was a mole around him.

As a staff member from the capital, he is not a direct relative and must always be suspected. In the past few days, he has been tricking people openly and secretly. At the moment, he is just treated as a slave and ordered around, which is nothing.

Living under someone else's roof, he knew very well that his bones were worthless, so he kept his position extremely upright. He didn't complain at all when he heard the words, and immediately turned around to inquire about the situation.

Anjiu rolled his eyes when he heard that the radical party for reform spontaneously gathered to hold lectures and parades in the Yaochang area.

In his opinion, mere ants cannot make waves.Unexpectedly, in a few days, the revolutionaries became more and more violent, and even spread to the entire Jiangxi area, alarming the government.

When the news came back to the capital, he, a Taoist superintendent who was facing death penalty, could not help but give him a warning. In the end, with Xia Ying's promotion, the reform was finally put on the table.

In the past ten years, Yang Chenggong served as Fuliang County magistrate with great diligence, but his methods were insufficient. For many years, he was content with the status quo, with mediocre performance, conservative and lack of motivation. Ren Anjiu and a gang of local snakes were arrogant, and the Jingdezhen porcelain industry was destroyed. It's a mess.

Oppressing the people, running rampant in the fish and meat village, robbing land and houses, and other evil deeds are endless. They are performed almost every day in the town, regardless of size, with countless casualties. Under Xia Ying's suppression, it seems to have restrained on the surface, but in fact there is an undercurrent. Move more unscrupulously in invisible places.

Xia Ying was determined to eliminate the bad habits in Jingdezhen's porcelain industry and establish a new order, so she proposed a number of reform measures under the guidance of "drawing on the strengths of others and adopting the best methods".

[-]. Lift the kiln ban to avoid the phenomenon of skyrocketing firewood prices and one family becoming the dominant player. Let the major firewood dealers compete fairly and refrain from driving up firewood prices to the detriment of the people.

[-]. Implement a distribution system according to work, with more workers getting more and less workers getting less. The number of kiln workers should be adjusted accordingly to reduce unnecessary expenses.[-]. Shorten the kiln lanes. It is strictly forbidden to continuously expand the kiln lanes for the purpose of increasing the number of porcelain, which may lead to accidents such as the collapse of the kiln roof. Strictly control the dimensions of the kiln lanes and kiln roofs in order to be scientific.

[-]. Establish a pottery industry supervisory committee to oversee the three kilns and nine committees. Anyone who reports will be rewarded and punished.

……

Taking Anqing Kiln as a pilot project, the new policy began to be fully implemented.With Wang Yu and supporters from major private kilns and billet households, the innovation was in full swing.

Once people get busy, many things become ineffective.

A month later, the new policy began to bear fruit, and the establishment of a ceramics industry supervisory committee was put on the agenda.

In the past, the so-called supervisory responsibility has always been carried out by "street masters" in various trades, and most of these "street masters" were guests of major private kilns and billet households.The two parties have an employment relationship, using gold and silver as bait, up and down, and work together in confusion.

Now, Xia Ying wants to form a brand new team and requires the supervisors to be honest and honest, with the style of a censor.The first point is to understand porcelain, be independent from the Jingdezhen merchant gang, have nothing to do with the Three Kilns and Jiuhui, be able to perform the duties of picket, and have no nepotism.

He is fair and understands justice.

As soon as the recruitment order came out, everyone turned their attention to the same person - An Jiu.

Every word and every sentence here is undoubtedly a crushing sanction imposed by Xia Ying on An Jiu.

Hutian kiln was the leader of private kilns, and Anqing kiln was the pioneer of Baicai. On the surface, the competition between the two kilns was a commercial competition, but in fact, it was the epitome of endless party struggle in the sky of Jingdezhen, a small country.

Reaching this point was not what they wanted.

However, wherever you go, you will see an endless abyss.

During these days, due to the fierce reform, the inspection department often cooperated with the county government to suppress violent demonstrations, coming and going without stopping.It was a rare day of peace. Wu Yin was relieved that he had not been called up at the next duty hour. He arranged for the brothers to go to a restaurant together to reward them.

After running around for days, even a hard-working man couldn't stand it. Seeing that there was no oil and water, every skin became loose.

"Fortunately, Nalaoshizi's election has come to an end. If it doesn't stop, my wife and I will run away."

"That is to say, in a big place, there are a lot of things. It's either this or that. Let's talk about these lawsuits at the entrance of the kiln. What do we have to do? They are always shouting about beatings and killings. Isn't that a big deal?"

"You don't understand this. People are making revolution through elections. The lives of local people are very important. The New Deal must really go forward before it can really stop. Otherwise...hehe."

"Before I came here, I never thought that the folk customs in this place could be so fierce."

"Let's go, let's talk about the rest later. What nonsense are you talking about when the boss is treating us today? Whoever runs slower will be on duty tonight!"

With that said, a group of strong men chased me out of the Inspection Department Yamen.

Wu Yin is a kid from Beijing. He has a deep family background and an extremely rich family background. Every time he entertains guests, he has to peel off his skin. A table full of thick oily red sauce and several jars of daughter's red sauce will make a group of wealthy men unable to find anything without drinking. North will never give up.

While they were making a fuss, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted: "Isn't that Mr. Wang Daguan?"

"Which official Wang?"

"Which one else? The king of the bastard?"

The gentleman in Yishui stopped his chopsticks and drank the wine for a while. You looked at me, I looked at you, and laughed out loud from time to time.

Wu Yin was held up, with his legs crossed, and he was throwing peanuts into his mouth, and he also laughed after thinking about it.He was no more thoughtful than these reckless men. He looked in the direction of the caller and saw Wang Jin, the old enemy of the Inspection Department, the number one dog next to Zhang Wensi, stopping in a shop. At the door, he looked around with a sly look, then opened the door curtain and stepped inside.

For a moment, the geese passed by without leaving a trace, as if nothing happened.

Wu Yin paused slightly, then turned over.

"Eat first, I'll go out for convenience."

"Boss, the alley next to it is quite deep. Don't get sidetracked and wander into the flowers."

The rough guys started laughing and making fun of their bosses one by one.

Wu Yin had no official airs, he smiled and glanced at the old men, his lips pursed slightly.After going downstairs, I passed by the shop door as if by accident, and then I ducked out of my way, like a black cat, and silently jumped up to the ridge of the roof.

When Wang Jin entered the room, he never expected that there was a tail following behind him. He walked through the yard, came out from the back door, and then got on a small boat along the Changjiang River. He passed through the ships that kept coming and going, and finally disappeared in the middle of the river in three circles. .

Wu Yin stood high and could see far, but he was still confused by this man.

It wasn't until Wang Jin disappeared somewhere that he turned over and landed. After searching around, he fled in a certain direction.
