Fortunately, Da'an is not an outsider, and he is no longer surprised by his brother-in-law's crazy way of showing off his wife.
"Brother-in-law didn't make a mistake this time. My sister really guessed those key points!" Da'an said.
Luo Fengtang corrected Daan with a serious face: "What you said is inappropriate. When have I ever praised your brother-in-law?"
Daan was startled for a moment, looked at the couple in front of him, and couldn't help laughing.
He randomly changed his words and said: "It's my fault, I made a mistake. My brother-in-law has never made a mistake. My sister is a female middle school student, and she knows things like a god, hahaha..."
"Come on, you two, stop making fun of me. We are talking about business, and you two are not serious!"
Yang Ruoqing's face turned red and she became angry.
Both men shut up obediently.
"Well, let's get down to business, Da'an, when will you leave for Tianhai County to conduct a secret investigation? What identity do you plan to disguise yourself as?" Yang Ruoqing continued to ask.
Da'an thought for a moment and said: "Last time, the emperor sent an imperial envoy to Tianhai County to investigate. I don't know if it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster. The imperial envoy has not yet reached the boundary of Tianhai County."
"It was bad weather, and the carriage was walking on a bridge. The bridge collapsed, and the people and the carriage fell into the river."
"By the time the imperial envoy was fished out, it was already three days later."
"Um..." Yang Ruoqing touched her forehead with her hand, "Whether it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, in general, that imperial envoy was also an unlucky idiot."
“It’s raining so hard, you shouldn’t walk outside, especially across rivers and bridges!”
"Then Da'an, please tell me about your arrangements for this trip. Safety comes first!" Yang Ruoqing asked quickly.
Da'an smiled and said: "Don't worry, sister, it was precisely with this safety issue in mind that the emperor secretly ordered me to sneak into Tianhai County as an imperial envoy."
"My identity this time is that of a down-and-out scholar. I will write letters and portraits on the streets of Tianhai County to support my family."
"I am raising two family members, one is a mute brother who works hard at the dock, and the other is a crazy and alcoholic father. The former is a master arranged for me by my brother-in-law, and the latter is introduced by Chen'er Came here."
Hearing Da'an's words, Yang Ruoqing looked at Luo Fengtang in surprise, "Who is it? Could it be your deputy general?"
Luo Fengtang shook his head, "It's not the deputy general, it's my personal bodyguard Ye Yi."
"Ye Yi?" Yang Ruoqing narrowed her eyes.
She knew that Luo Fengtang had a guard named Ye Yi. This Ye Yi was very skilled and was a master among the people.
Su Lai is a loner, like a lone wolf. He disdains loyalty to the court, let alone high-ranking officials and generous salaries.
By chance, he met Luo Fengtang twice. Luo Fengtang wanted to win him over to work together in the army, but Ye Yi refused both times.
Later, Ye Yi attracted jealousy and was chased by the black and white gangs. When his life was hanging by a thread, Luo Fengtang came to the rescue.
Ye Yi stayed with Luo Fengtang to repay his kindness. In the past few years, he followed Luo Fengtang all over the country and fought in all directions.
He was baptized in the flames of war, and his thoughts may have changed. Now he stays in the army wholeheartedly to assist Luo Fengtang.
He is even more loyal to Luo Fengtang. It can be said that in Ye Yi's heart, the words of His Majesty Qi Xingyun are far less effective than Luo Fengtang.
Moreover, Yoruichi is extremely taciturn.
Following Luo Fengtang back to the village, he hardly said a word to anyone except for greeting the general's wife Yang Ruoqing, and he never responded to anyone's greetings.
Over time, everyone got used to it and just treated him like air or a wooden stake.
"That boy Ye Yi plays the mute brother. There is no more suitable candidate in the world," Yang Ruoqing said with a smile.
"I remember that during the last Chinese New Year, Ye Yi came to the village to look for Tang Yazi. For three whole days, he ate at the same table as us without even humming." She added.
Luo Fengtang smiled and said, "Ye Yi has that kind of character, but he is loyal to his duties and his skills make me feel reassured. Sending him to accompany Da'an to Tianhai County on this trip can ensure Da'an's safety."
Yang Ruoqing nodded, "The mute brother is Ye Yi. Let me guess, that crazy and alcoholic father, could he be the wine master?"
"Well, it's the Jiu Xian." Da'an said.
"Da'an told me that the person who submitted a secret memorial to the emperor and petitioned for the people of Tianhai County was the Jiuxian."
"The Jiu Xian is a man who investigates secretly and investigates secretly. He is a heroic man in Da Qi. Although he is addicted to alcohol, he likes to fight against injustice, rob the rich and give to the poor."
"Originally, the Jiu Xian wanted to go to Tianhai County for this trip. When Chen'er learned that I was appointed as an imperial envoy by the emperor and went to Tian Hai County, he asked for my permission, and then went to talk to the Jiu Xian."
“It turned out that we both hit it off immediately, so we started traveling together!”
After hearing Daan's detailed explanation, Yang Ruoqing nodded with confidence.
"With Yoichi and Jiu Xian accompanying you to Tianhai County, I feel relieved." She said,
"Then when do you plan to leave?" she asked again.
Da'an said: "During the Qingming Festival the day after tomorrow, dad said he would write a family tree for Feng'er. Then he would go to the mountain to worship his ancestors and prepare a banquet."
"As soon as I finish the Qingming Festival, I will start the morning. Then I and Ye Yi will set off from here and take the pipeline to Tianhai County."
"The Jiu Xian has already set off from the capital to Tianhai County. He said that he is playing the role of father, and he has to go there first to build a small, dilapidated courtyard to hide himself from others."
Acting must be realistic, otherwise it won't work.
Yang Ruoqing understood this.
"Tangyaozi, what about you? You, the general who protects the country as a bride-to-be for the princess, when will you leave?" she asked.
Luo Fengtang said: "The ninth princess's wedding is scheduled for the sixth day of May. There are still nearly two months left. I can leave for the capital in mid-to-late April."
Yang Ruoqing made a rough calculation in her mind, and Tangyazi could still live at home for more than a month.
Luo Fengtang's voice sounded in my ears again, "I have been at home for more than a month and haven't taken care of the crops properly in several years."
"It just so happened that I had this opportunity this year, and I happened to help my father-in-law and my uncle."
Lying on the bed at night, Yang Ruoqing thought of another thing and originally wanted to ask him again.
As a result, as soon as someone lay down on the bed, someone rolled over and pinned him down.
"Did you miss me in the past two months?"
He asked while gently biting her delicate earlobe.
The heat of talking brushed against her neck, numbing and itching, making her giggle and couldn't help twisting her waist to avoid it.
His rough hands grasped her slender waist, and the heat in his palms burned her skin. Her breathing was suffocated, and her heartbeat accelerated.
"Don't laugh, answer me." He said solemnly.
"I want to laugh, but I don't want to answer. What can you do to me?" Yang Ruoqing asked with a smile.
