I really don't want to take shortcuts anymore

Chapter 403 One and two cuties
The door to the backyard opened with a creak. The man inside walked out holding a bamboo stick, one foot deep and one foot shallow.

He was thin and his face was almost transparent. As soon as he went out, he hunched over and covered his mouth, coughing and gasping for a long time. Then he lifted his legs and slowly walked out. Every three or five steps, he would stop again. Come down and take a rest. After finally reaching the entrance of the courtyard, a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead and temples.

The mute slave who was boiling water on the stove heard the noise and rushed over. He put a cloak made of tussah lining and chinchilla skin on him. Then he looked at the man with an anxious look on his face and made a sound in his mouth. .

"I've just been bored for a long time and wanted to go for a walk." The man said softly. Probably because I haven't spoken for a long time, just saying these few words evoked another cough:

"Ahem, cough, take a break and enjoy some sunshine. You don't need to worry."

The mute slave showed disapproval on his face, but he still turned around and opened the door for him, and then helped him cross the threshold.

Che Huai poked his head out from the apricot tree in the yard next door, which was as white as snow, jumped to the ground, and climbed up far away.

From the majestic commander of the army to the most peripheral detective of the Embroidered Clothes Division, Che Huai didn't complain at all.

He had long been horrified to see what had happened to those people who had been close to Master Yong'an before. Now that he could keep his family safe and have a salary that was guaranteed to be full, many people would envy him. Good luck.

What's more, it's not like he didn't have better choices before.

People say that Tang Zhan, the embroiderer, is cruel and inhumane, but at least he is trustworthy.

At that time, he believed the words of the unknown female embroiderer and defected before the battle. He was originally worried, but Master Tang kept his word and promised to find him a position as a governor in the Northern Army.

But he is not just one person, he also has nearly a hundred guard brothers. They were all originally from innocent backgrounds. They just followed the emperor's order and were transferred to work under Lord Yong'an. They have always obeyed his orders. If he just got away and ignored them and allowed them to be questioned one by one, it would be difficult for him to do it again in the years to come. Sleep peacefully.

Che Huai still remembered the way Tang Envoy looked at him when he proposed to use the position of the Northern Army's Marquis in exchange for his men's safe passage through the border.

Two parts surprised, three parts scrutinizing, still a little unable to understand the unexplained meaning, and then nodded in agreement.

"Commander Che is very capable and has a good temperament." Tang Shiling quickly returned to his previous indifference: "It would be a pity if he just returned to his hometown to rest."

Then, he took over the new identity of a detective without hesitation. After a period of training, he received his first task: to monitor Xianghou Yu Chu.

The Xiuyi Envoys serve directly in front of the emperor, and the emperor's attitude is more important to them than anything else.

Your Majesty hated this person so much that he sent three detectives to his house to monitor him in shifts every day. Even the smallest words he said would be recorded and reported.

That Yu Chu was obedient, probably guessing that His Majesty didn't want to see him, so he simply packed up all the property he had collected over the years and handed it over, dismissed his servants, and lived frugally.

After Dinghou was killed and Yu Chu was imprisoned, they had been recalled to standby. Unexpectedly, things turned out to be twists and turns. Dinghou was actually murdered by the ex-husband of the concubine in the 28th room, and was blamed on Xianghou Yu. Chu, he was wronged and tortured. Even though the doctors tried their best to treat him, he still became disabled.

Probably because of this, His Majesty's fear of him has been greatly reduced, and he has even developed a bit of intolerance. Over the past year, he has frequently given him food and food. Although it is not worth much, it also shows his new attitude. .

The impact of this statement on the Xiuyi Commissioner was that the detectives who had been sent here were transferred back one after another. He was the last one, and today was the last day of surveillance.

After tonight, he can completely withdraw and stay away from this ill-fated Marquis Xiang.

To be honest, from the beginning, he didn't think this person could make any waves.

Think about it, what kind of scheming person can he be taken back by Yong'an without any resistance and almost become his favorite? He's just a pretty boy who is greedy for life and afraid of death. Now he can't lift his hands and is lame, so it's not worth wasting any more time.

The higher-ups have already given word to Quan'er that he has performed well during the period of sitting as a detective and will be promoted to a working detective when he returns, which will bring him one step closer to becoming a true embroidered cloth messenger.

Che Huai doesn't care about his position. What he cares about is that after being promoted, Dai can grow a lot. Although it cannot be compared with when he was the leader before, it can indeed solve many problems.

After Yong'an's accident happened, although he was safe and sound in the end, his family quickly drew a clear line with him. Even his wife's family forced her to reconcile with him.

But his wife disagreed and insisted on sharing weal and woe with him, so no matter how hard and tired he was, he must make her life better than before.

The days of being a sit-in were too hard. He was away from home all day, and even when his wife was sick, he had no time to take care of her. He had really done enough.

Fortunately, this is all coming to an end, and the days ahead are worth looking forward to.

Yu Chu in front was still walking slowly and leisurely, stopping from time to time, panting, and taking a leisurely look at the flower branches protruding from the wall next to him. It took him half an hour to walk out of Xuanpingfang and turn into the east. Fang’s Shaobing Shop on the edge of the city.

This sesame seed cake shop is one that Yu Chu often goes to. He will definitely come there once every three days. The boss and the waiters in the shop all have clean backgrounds and are not suspicious.

Every time he would order a bowl of tea soup, plus two crispy sesame sesame cakes, and then sit in a simple shop and enjoy it slowly, which would consume an hour no matter what.

Che Huai had seen this kind of scene so many times that he didn't even notice it. He habitually thought of eating two bowls of plain noodles costing five cents each at a noodle stall two doors away, when a golden brilliance suddenly flashed into the corner of his eye.

Che Huai subconsciously looked towards where the golden light came from, only to see a piece of gold lintin lying under the stone drum five or six meters away.

Linzhijin is small and cute, easy to cash out, and everyone dislikes it.

Especially for the low-level agent who can only receive 800 five-plant money per month and whose wife is in urgent need of ginseng for recuperation.

Che Huai's movements were faster than his thoughts, and in the next moment he was standing under the stone drum, his boots quietly stepping on the little cutie.

Very good, no one noticed him. Che Huai slowly bent down, took the gold in his hands, squeezed it, and stuffed it into his sleeve pocket with satisfaction.

Yes, this can be regarded as an extra small benefit from following Yu Chu. Che Huai thought of the ice-like person who seemed to melt under the sun, and suddenly felt a little more cordial.
