Chapter 62: Yun Zhi vaguely felt that he was the one above. ...
Shi Qing's eyes trembled slightly, she looked up at Yun Zhi in a daze, and didn't respond for a while.
Yun Zhi stood up, raised his hand and rubbed his nose, his eyes began to look at her embarrassedly, he looked away, "Are we going out tonight?"
"Not tonight."
Wait until tomorrow to see what's going on.
Shi Qing got up and patted her buttocks, chasing Yun Zhi who was walking into the room and asked, "Are you drunk just now?"
If you dare to tell her that it is drunken sex, Shi Qing will screw him off!
Yun Zhi raised his hand and hung the sword beside the bed, with a smile in his eyes, turned to look at her with red ears, "Guess."
Shi Qing looked at him with his arms in his arms.
Yun Zhi smiled.
Because of a kiss at night, the originally pure quilt chat seemed to become more ambiguous.
Shi Qing looked at the progress bar on the transparent panel, which displayed brightly—
Seventy percent progress.
It's still 30 years away, why don't you get things done with the moonlight tonight?
It is rare for Shi Qing to fall asleep without touching the bed, but as soon as he turned his head and turned to sleep, Yun Zhi, the male protagonist, saw that he was lying on his back and fell asleep.
“…”
How dare you say that you are not drunk?
Waking up early in the morning, Yun Zhi practiced swords in the yard, and Shiqing got up to wash.
After the two finished their meal, the magistrate Cao came over, "This is the county's expense account book and some measures for flood control."
Said and put the book in his hand in front of Shi Qing, obviously ready.
The silver has been delivered and distributed evenly in several provinces. Among them, the county magistrate of Cao has the worst flooding every year. Shi Qing came here this year.
The county magistrate said, "The people in the lower reaches have already begun to migrate to the upper reaches, but there are still a few who are reluctant to give up their farmland and refuse to leave."
"Will these people be compensated every year?" Shi Qing casually flipped through the ledger and asked.
When she was talking about things, Yun Zhi sat next to her and listened.
The county magistrate Cao stood at the edge, answering any questions, "Of course it must be given. This is the rule of the court, not only to give certain compensation, but also to exempt them from taxes in the coming year, but still There are people who are taking chances and guarding that little field."
"Then find someone to persuade and ask if she wants farmland or death. If she wants farmland, she will move it herself. If you want farmland, send someone to do it for her," Shi Qing said, "She is confused, You never get confused."
The magistrate Cao has never used such a tough method.
The dams are being repaired around the river, Shi Qing went out with the magistrate Cao to check.
At present, it seems that the money has fallen into place, including the account books.
Even the dams are slowly being built. Last year's was washed away, and this year's is being rebuilt.
Lime, glutinous rice, tung oil, etc.
If the flood comes, there will only be more sacks piled up on it.
It is only May, and there are still some time before July and August, and the surrounding rivers that are prone to floods are only piling foundations.
The county magistrate Cao Shiqing wanted to go to the river, but he did not stop him, but followed behind.
The wood is good wood, very stocky.
Shi Qing wondered, since complete preventive measures are taken every year, why are there so many people dying?
Is it really a serious natural disaster?
Shi Qing definitely won't believe this on the surface. If you want to know the local situation, you have to start from other places.
After nightfall, Shi Qing and Yun Zhi put on a concise and capable bunt, ready to go out to have a look.
Mihe and Yaqing were not good at kung fu, so they stayed to guard the salute and deal with the magistrate of Cao.
Yun Zhi saw Shiqing walking down the street, "Aren't we going to the river?"
"Don't worry, ask someone first."
Yun Zhi looked left and right blankly, there was no one on the street at night.
Till Shiqing squatted in a corner.
The people went home to sleep at night, but the beggars did not.
The weather is hot now, they don't even want to find a straw pile to shelter from the wind and rain, they simply sleep under the wall.
Shi Qing gave each of the beggars a dress on the day she arrived. The beggars will definitely not forget her recognizable face.
Shi Qing's money has never been in vain, and now I just happened to ask them something.
When the beggar boss saw Shi Qing coming over at night, he thought he was dreaming.
"The dam?" The beggar chief looked at Shi Qing and immediately understood.
She wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth when she fell asleep, and walked towards the river with Shiqing.
The two walked ahead, Yun Zhi holding the sword slightly behind.
I don't know if it was an illusion, he felt that he and Shi Qing were being watched.
It seems that someone has followed them since they left the yamen.
One of the lines of sight is the most obvious and very familiar.
"You see that the dams are all right? That's the one surnamed Cao fooling you." The beggar boss blurted out, and immediately realized who he was talking to, and immediately said with a smile, "I, I..."
Shi Qing was young, and when she didn't show her authority, she didn't seem to have any airs, and she forgot her sense of proportion when she spoke.
The head of the beggar continued, "She does what she does on the surface, but she is actually rotten on the inside. If she doesn't make money, how can she honor the adults in the capital? How can she move up the ranks?"
Master Cao wants to climb up. After all, who is an official, who is willing to be a county magistrate for a lifetime.
The workers who worked during the day by the river have returned, and now there is only a pile of wood and stones that have been transported on the ground.
Shi Qing squatted on the ground, turned around and stretched out his hand towards Yunzhi, palms facing upwards.
Yun Zhi looked down at her, then glanced at the beggar chief beside her, hesitated for a moment, still pursed his lips and handed it over, put it in Shi Qing's palm, held her hand and squatted beside her .
“…???”
Does he think he wants to hold hands with him?
Shi Qing almost laughed, "Little fool, I'm asking you to borrow your sword."
Her hands are not claws, and they are not sharp enough to scratch wood. Of the two, only Yun Zhi held the sword.
Yun Zhi's eyes widened when he looked at Shi Qing, his body froze, and his face became hot.
He thought that Shi Qing wanted to pull him to watch.
Yun Zhi blushed and handed over the sword, "You didn't make it clear."
She didn't expect Yun Zhi to be so proactive.
Shi Qing took out the green sword and inserted it into the stake twice.
Shi Qing was stunned and tried several times.
It's not that she is strong, nor that the sword is fast, but that the stake is really soft.
Only the outer bark looks hard, but the inside is rotten like cotton wool.
This kind of wood is also reserved for burning wood.
gone."
The magistrate Cao never does anything on stones, but moves these invisible places, so even if the imperial court sends people to investigate, it is useless.
Especially, some of the imperial envoys only walked through the scene, and it’s okay to glance at them and feel that there is no problem. Clean and good official boots never walk on the soil by the river, where can you find these.
The head of the beggar also saw what Shiqing did that day and thought she was credible, otherwise he would not have told her this, lest the officials would protect her and the county magistrate Cao had nothing to do and she would be arrested first.
Shi Qing looked at the piles of wood that had been buried there, "I use good wood deliberately during the day, just to show me a show."
Since she first arrived in this county, county magistrate Cao received the news as soon as possible, and Shi Qing guessed that she was afraid that there was something wrong, otherwise she would be afraid of the imperial commission.
From this point of view, it is not that the people in the lower reaches are unwilling to relocate, but it may be that the court compensation has not been issued.
The people will starve to death if they move through the winter and run out of rations. If life is not difficult, who is willing to gamble with their lives.
The disaster is severe every year, and there are countless deaths. I am afraid it is because of this reason.
Shi Qingqi laughed, holding the sword heavily on the ground, "Does she use the old lady as a child to coax her?"
Clean up the things in the underworld, not the things in the world.
She came down to earth, not earth.
There are all kinds of monsters and monsters.
Shi Qing took a deep breath and thanked the beggar boss earnestly.
If it wasn't for her today, Shi Qing might not have noticed that the wooden stakes during the day are different from the ones at night, and then set off back to Beijing in two or three days, thinking that he would save the people from disaster.
The beggar boss smiled and surrendered to Shiqing, "We thank you."
Seeing that she had nowhere to use herself, she was ready to go back. After thinking of something, she still said one more sentence, "Sir, be careful, it is difficult for a strong dragon to suppress a snake."
After all, the age of Shi Qing, the imperial envoy, looks really young, like nothing has happened.
The county magistrate Cao is willing to confuse Shi Qing, probably because she thinks that she is a Beijing official who is not easy to offend, and Shi Qing did not find her crime.
"Rest assured, I have it."
Shi Qing was just about to get up when Yun Zhi suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist and pressed it beside her. At the same time, he raised his head and said to the beggar chief, "Run south, hurry up."
The beggar leader was stunned for a moment, probably because he was more sensitive to danger, and ran quickly to the south without any hesitation.
There are people and alleys there, and she is very familiar with the environment, and it is easy to hide.
Shi Qing also realized that something was wrong, and quickly took out the signal bomb and released it.
It would take at least half an hour for the Royal Forest Army to come over, but she and Yun Zhi were already surrounded by a group of men in black.
The last time I saw this scene was when Qian Huanhuan was returning to Beijing, and they happened to meet them at night.
Who knew that in just a month or two, she and Yun Zhi would be the people who were surrounded and suppressed.
It's really feng shui.
At the time of cleaning, there were about 20 people on the other side, and they looked very difficult.
Her palms were slightly cold, trying to stabilize her mind, "Can you fight?"
Shi Qing asked Yun Zhi in a low voice.
It would be a little difficult for the two to run back to the county town, but fortunately there is a river behind them, so they can hide when they jump down.
Yun Zhi probably thought the same, he put Shi Qing behind him, stretched out his hand and pulled out the sword she had just stuck on the ground, with a rare serious tone, "I'll try."
After that, he said "try" again.
Shi Qing tried his best to stay by the river.
Maybe seeing the intention of the two, the man in black rushed over without saying a word.
Yun Zhi threw the scabbard to Shi Qing and deceived himself to meet him.
Usually he seldom kills in fights, and he didn't even think about taking people's lives today, but he was just dealing with it, trying to delay the time until the Royal Forest Army came.
"We surround him, you go and kill Shi Qing."
Twenty people hold one against the cloud, all of them seem a bit difficult.
One of them was afraid that the mission would fail, so he was going to attack Shiqing first.
Compared with Yun Zhi, Shi Qing is much easier to deal with.
"Leaving nothing alive."
The four words are gloomy, with undisguised hatred.
Clearly a group of people in black, Shi Qing can still tell at a glance who said this.
She saw that the other person's figure was a little familiar, but she couldn't remember it for a while.
"How much hatred, how much hatred."
She asked, "Did I dig up your ancestral grave in my dream?"
Shi Qing tried to hide behind the wood.
She is good at long range attack, among which bow and arrow are the best. But who goes out carrying a bow at any time!
Shi Qing reasoned with the other party, "Who sent you here? I'll give you double the price."
"Why don't you speak, mute?"
"It's okay, we don't discriminate against this, you can make gestures with me, I've learned to understand."
The man in black who came to kill Shiqing with a knife was buzzing with her noisy brain, and his thoughts couldn't help but follow her, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, "Shut up!"
"There is so much to say when death is coming!"
Shi Qing circled around the stake with her, "If you say shut up, I'll shut up? Then I told you to stop and you didn't listen."
She's just procrastinating.
The man in black who just gave the order withdrew from the battle with Yun Zhi, and walked towards Shiqing with a knife.
"Today you must die!"
Shi Qing said, "If you say I die, I have to die? I want to live!"
It's okay for one person to deal with it, but it's a bit difficult for two people.
Seeing Shi Qing being surrounded, Yun Zhi felt a little anxious, his moves were chaotic for a moment, and his cheek was almost scratched by the opponent's blade.
He was desperately stopped, and it was difficult to pass.
The other party saw that Yun Zhi was unwilling to take people's lives, and he used his weakness to surround him while laying down on him.
Shi Qing, who was caught between the two, reacted faster than Yun Zhi imagined. .
I am afraid that I won't be able to wait for the Royal Forest Army to come.
Yun Zhi's thin lips pursed his heart and struggled, and the knuckles of the fingers holding the sword hilt were stretched white.
Seeing that the two were about to run away, the leader of the man in black threw a dart at the heart of Yun Zhi's back.
The moment she saw the dart reflecting in the moonlight, Shi Qing suddenly remembered who the man in black was.
It is a bit difficult to avoid completely.
Shi Qing's eyes were quick and his hands were quick, he hugged Yun Zhi and turned around, avoiding his heart, and the dart passed by Yun Zhi's arm.
With a "pop", the two fell into the water at the same time and disappeared.
The head of the man in black stood by the river with a gloomy face, and stuck the knife at his feet angrily.
The dart forgot to be poisoned, otherwise it will take the opponent's life!
She originally thought of bringing more than 20 people, but Yun Zhi and Shi Qing could not escape, and because she was afraid of revealing her identity, she rarely used darts.
Just when I saw Yun Zhi and Shi Qing about to run away, he subconsciously put a hidden weapon, but he forgot that it was not poisonous.
This couple is the only one who can escape her two darts in the entire capital.
Such a good opportunity was actually escaped by Shi Qing!
The man in black was suffocated in the chest, breathing heavily, and was so angry that he tore off the face towel covering his face to breathe.
The guard's surname is Sun. Because she is the eldest in the family, outsiders call her Sun Da.
Seeing that the Royal Forest Army was approaching, Sun Da took a deep breath, put the face towel back on, lowered his head and pulled out the knife, making a retreat gesture.
She asked people to search down the river. It would be best if they could meet them.
Getting rid of Shi Qing and Yun Zhi was a bit more difficult, but the road back to Beijing was so long, she couldn't believe that they didn't let their guard down.
Shi Qing and Yun Zhi, they both went downstream along the river.
Climb ashore when it is estimated that the other party will not be able to catch up.
The surrounding area is pitch-dark, it looks like a mountain village, and it has already left the county seat.
Shi Qing wiped the water on his face, and before he had time to rest, he knelt and stretched out his hand to pull Yun Zhi's shirt.
The dart is rubbing against the arm, and the sleeves cannot be seen.
Under the cold moonlight, Shi Qing's face was pale, his breathing was tight, and his heart fell heavily in the bottom of his heart, for fear of poison on the dart.
She took off her clothes with a serious expression, and Yun Zhi couldn't even blush.
He sat cross-legged on the ground, his palm covered the back of his cool hand, and said with certainty, "It's okay, there is no poison on the dart."
He understands medicine and knows that there is no poison on it the moment he hits the dart.
Good luck too.
Yun Zhi also recognized who the man in black was, but she didn't know how the Sun Mansion was gone and how she escaped.
This person is conceited, perhaps thinking that no one can escape her dart, and disdain to poison on it. Including the last time I did Shiqing in Babao Pavilion, there was no poison on that dart.
Shi Qing looked straight at Yun Zhi, seeing that his face didn't seem to be poisoned and forced to lie, he breathed a sigh of relief, and his back went limp.
She let go of Yun Zhi's clothes with her fingers, knelt down and sat down to calm her beating heart, her eyes fell on Yun Zhi's face, and she said in a hoarse voice, "Yun Zhi, you scared me to death."
Fearer than being assassinated during a spring hunt.
Because the injured person is Yun Zhi.
Shi Qing never thought that one day, she would value the lives of others more than herself.
It is not just for the so-called task progress.
Yun Zhi looked at Shi Qing, couldn't help wrapping one hand around her neck, put her palm on the back of Shi Qing's head, pulled the person closer, tilted her head and lowered her eyes to kiss the color light lips.
Rub lightly.
Like a soothing kiss.
Shi Qing is mainly anti-guest, reaching out to hold Yun Zhi's face, prying open his lips to deepen the distance between the two.
Yun Zhi was pushed down on the grass behind her, and she blushed when the other party reached out to pull his belt.
"?!"
Why is he lying down passively? !
Although he didn't do it, Yun Zhi vaguely felt that he was the one above.
Shi Qing looked at him suspiciously, Yun Zhi said softly, "Someone is here."
He then added: "It's not a man in black, the footsteps are heavy, like an ordinary villager."
Shi Qing got up from Yun Zhi, looked at Yun Zhi lying flat on the ground through the moonlight, his eyes were fixed somewhere, his eyebrows raised slightly, and he was about to whistle.
Yun Zhi followed her gaze and looked down, breathing tight.
This rascal!
Yun Zhi glared at her, turned his back to Shi Qing and bent his legs in an attempt to hide it, wanting to wait for his body to calm down before getting up again.
Shi Qing was also a little embarrassed, after all, it was the first time, but as soon as Yun Zhi was shy, she stood up.
Shi Qing smiled and poked at his lower back, "What are you hiding, you won't be able to see anymore."
When he said this, Shi Qing touched the tip of his nose unnaturally.
Yun Zhi was already breathing hot, but now it's even hotter, she gritted her teeth hard, "Don't talk."
His voice was low and hoarse, with an unnatural and indescribable sultry magnetism.
Shi Qing rarely blushed, his eyes flickered, looking away, looking for something to do with both hands, twisting the water on the hem of his clothes, bowing his head and smiling.
"Who are you? Why are you here in the middle of the night?"
A woman's voice came from not far away, and it sounded like she was about forty years old.
Shi Qing followed the movement and looked over, and Yun Zhi also sat up.
Shi Qing was sitting by the river, the moonlight reflected on that beautiful face.
She is so conspicuous and beautiful that it is almost unforgettable.
The other party blurted out, "Master Hou?"
Shi Qing and Yun Zhi were both slightly startled, but no one expected to recognize them.
The middle-aged woman came out of the shadows carrying the cage, and under the light, Shi Qing realized that the other party had met her in the clothes shop.
It is the woman who has been humiliated by Xiao Er.
The woman's surname is Zheng, and she poses to salute Shi Qing, "Just call me Lao Zheng."
Shi Qing got up and helped her, "We don't like this at night."
Shi Qing and Yun Zhi definitely won't be able to go back to the county office at this moment, and Yun Zhi's arm is injured, although it is not heavy, it needs to be bandaged.
The two looked at each other and asked if they could spend the night at Lao Zheng's house.
Old Zheng nodded again and again, "Of course, of course, I will show you the way. Sir, you haven't eaten yet, I just asked my husband to cook you some, just country food, I hope you don't dislike it."
She was a little nervous and awkward, but she didn't ask how Shi Qing and Yun Zhi appeared by the river wet.
"We go to the river to catch shrimp at night, especially when the moon is good."
Old Zheng smiled and showed Shi Qing the shrimp cage in his hand, "The one at home likes to eat this, so I'll try to get him some."
If I hadn't come out to the cage, I wouldn't have met Shi Qing.
The three walked forward, about half a cup of tea before arriving at Lao Zheng's house.
"My daughter went out to make a living, and my husband and I were the only two at home. It just so happened that you slept in her room at night, and you usually clean it up."
Lao Zheng put the cage at the door and shouted to the man in the room, "Look who I met."
Old Zheng's house is not big, with an earthen house and a small yard.
Old Zheng Fulang came out of the room, and when he saw Shi Qing and Yun Zhi, they could not help but be surprised, their faces were full of disbelief, "Little, young adults?"
Low-key and low-key.
Shi Qing didn't expect that one of his casual actions would be remembered by others, and he didn't expect to meet again.
Shi Qing saluted a junior, "Excuse me."
"Don't disturb, don't disturb." The man looked at Shi Qing and Yun Zhi crampedly, although the two of them were soaked and looked a little embarrassed, but their temperament and appearance were still conspicuous, and they entered his house The house felt out of place.
"Oh, that's right!" The man remembered and said softly, "It happens that there is hot water on the stove. You wash and I will bring you clean clothes to change into."
Lao Zheng turned over the medicine box for Yun Zhi.
There is no good medicine at home, but there are still some to stop the bleeding.
Fearing that the two of them would freeze, Zheng Furang also cooked **** soup.
Shi Qing was wearing Lao Zheng's daughter's old clothes, which had been washed and turned white, while Yun Zhi was wearing Zheng Fulang's clothes.
Shi Qing looked back at Yun Zhi wearing such an old-fashioned gray, and whispered teasingly, "Old Yun"
“…”
Yun Zhi originally wanted to call "Old Shi", but Shi Qing's clothes were pretty good-looking, the word "Old" was really hard to say.
"You go out and I will apply the medicine."
Yun Zhi raised his chin to signal Shi Qing.
"I met Yun Shaoxia outside," Shi Qing not only didn't plan to go out, but rolled up his sleeves and said enthusiastically, "I can't do it myself"
