As soon as these words came out, Wei Zhentang's body trembled in fright. He and Zhou Han looked at each other, their eyes flashed, and their minds were spinning quickly, and he said quickly.
"If the prince is interested in that talented man, the grudge between the official and that man will be wiped out..."
"Haha, Mr. Wei, you are worrying too much. I told you that it was just a coincidence that I came here. I just found it interesting to hear that a small scholar defeated two adults."
After receiving the prince's affirmative reply, Wei Zhentang's heart dropped to the ground.
He felt a little lucky in his heart. It seemed that he was overthinking it. If Su Qi'an was really favored by the Crown Prince, then they would really be in trouble.
I gritted my teeth and swallowed it hard, but luckily that didn't happen.
Being able to sit as the second-in-command in the county and city, Wei Zhentang has the ability to observe people's emotions.
After he came back to his senses, he sincerely asked the prince behind the screen, "I dare to ask the prince if there is any way to solve the official's troubles."
"I can't think of a solution. I heard that some time ago in Qiu Wei, the Wei family had a second-ranked man. Counting the time, I think he will be appointed to an official position soon."
"I think the second-place pick still has to work hard at the grassroots level and appoint a county magistrate. It's not a big problem. As for this place."
Wei Zhentang understood this and kowtowed several times to Prince Pingfeng, expressing his gratitude.
"Everything will cause trouble for the Crown Prince. If this can happen, the subordinate will definitely do his best to the Crown Prince, and he will not hesitate to do so."
"Haha, Mr. Wei has worked so hard. I see it, go back and wait for news."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Wei Zhentang was overjoyed and kowtowed a few times to the person in front of him.
Fortunately, he was in the mansion and there were no outsiders present. If someone saw this, it would be shocking to hear that the magistrate of a high-ranking county has such a dog-licking side.
But then again, for a county magistrate to behave like this, the so-called prince behind the screen has such a distinguished and distinguished status.
After waving their hands, Wei Zhentang and Zhou Han stood up. At this moment, the prince spoke again.
"By the way, this prince is here to visit. I have a few words to tell you two adults."
"The case of Marquis Laiyang's rebellion has been settled, but somehow some bugs escaped, and they seem to be in the county where Mr. Wei belongs. What to do next, I want to..."
Wei Zhentang's face was serious, he took the words directly, clasped his fists and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, don't worry, this matter will definitely not slip through the cracks. I will tell them all to shut up. If not, I will come to see you."
"Well, with Master Wei's words, I feel relieved. Then I will wait for the good news from the two adults."
Not long after the voice behind the screen fell, and after a while, as a few footsteps faded away, Zhou Han and Wei Zhentang were relieved.
It was as if this man could control their life and death with just a thought.
At this time, Wei Zhentang no longer lost control of his emotions, and gradually recovered, with a deep joy on his face.
He looked at Zhou Han, with a little pride in his eyes, as that person spoke.
This time, Zhou Han couldn't afford to be inactive in paddling, otherwise, Zhou Han knew exactly what would happen.
Wei Zhentang clenched his hands and whispered, "Su Qian, you can't escape my grasp after all!"
A villa in Xicheng District.
Ye Zhong boasted to Su Qi'an with a proud face, "Haha, Brother Su, I haven't been this happy for a long time. You haven't seen it. According to what you told me, Wei Zhentang and Zhou Han's faces are extremely ugly. "
"I didn't expect that I could also defeat the second and third leaders in the county. It's so satisfying."
Su Qian smiled and nodded without saying much. After Ye Zhong made such a fuss, the whole county could now see it.
This Su Qian from Lingbei County, no one can stop his rise in the county.
Su Qi'an tasted the tea in her hand and said, "It's a lesson to them to defeat them this time, but we can't be careless and have to deal with their counterattacks at any time."
"After all, the Zhou and Wei families are established giants.
First, the more critical the moment, the less careless they can be. As long as they get through this period of time, when the overall situation is decided, there will be absolutely no place for them in the county. "
"Well, brother Su, don't worry. I understand this. But after all, the person I want to thank the most is Miss Xiaowan. Without her extraordinary skills in making friends, Su Ji Trading Company would not be running so smoothly."
"Sometimes, I really admire Miss Xiaowan. As a shopkeeper, she is better than other old shopkeepers. Brother Su still has such a vicious eye for recognizing people."
"I just don't know when Brother Su will be able to earn Miss Xiaowan..."
Ye Chong's eloquent talk turned sour after a while, and Su Qi'an gave him a blank look.
This time, Ye Zhong was not as silent as last time, but said bluntly, "Brother Su, it goes without saying that Miss Xiaowan is interested in you, everyone knows it, and you are definitely interested in Miss Xiaowan. Brother Su, there is no need to deny it. You can't hide it from me."
"Brother Yu, I really don't understand. Last time my sister-in-law came here, she agreed. Brother Su, why are you hesitating? Is it because you dislike Miss Xiaowan because she has a bad background?"
"How is that possible? What nonsense are you talking about?" Su Qian shook his head.
"Then why, Brother Su?" Ye Zhong continued to ask.
Su Qian did not escape this time. After a moment of silence, she spoke. "Brother Ye, I don't dislike Miss Xiaowan. I just think that women don't have to be the vassals of men. Women can also have their own careers instead of being dependent on men."
"Watching the girl you like doing what she likes and shining brightly makes people feel happier. I wonder if Brother Ye understands what I mean."
Su Qi'an's argument confused Ye Zhong. Even with Ye Zhong's wisdom, he still didn't understand Su Qi'an's thoughts.
But this argument made him feel fresh.
At this moment, suddenly, a familiar voice sounded behind the two of them.
"It turns out that this is what sir meant, Xiaowan understands."
The two turned around, and behind them, Lu Xiaowan stood.
"Miss Xiaowan, you..."
Lu Xiaowan shook her head and said with a smile, "Sir, there is no need to explain. Xiaowan is very happy that he can evaluate her like this."
With that said, Lu Xiaowan took a few steps forward, stood in front of Su Qi'an, and continued.
"But Xiaowan has something to ask sir."
"You ask."
"Sir, have you ever liked Xiaowan?"
Such a straightforward and simple question made Su Qian speechless.
Looking at Lu Xiaowan who was staring straight at him, Su Qi'an suddenly understood.
There is no reason to like this kind of thing, there are not so many rules and regulations, once you encounter it, you just like it.
Even in this kind of feudal society, there will still be an idea that does not belong to this era.
Because he met Su Qi'an, and Su Qi'an also met Lu Xiaowan, this feeling will naturally arise.
He looked at Lu Xiaowan and said bluntly, "I like it" without escaping.
Lu Xiaowan smiled, her smile was like a flower, and then she chuckled and said, "Xiaowan also likes sir very much."
After saying that, under Su Qian's astonished gaze, Lu Xiaowan kissed her gently.
This time, Su Qi'an did not dodge or push away, but subconsciously hugged Lu Xiaowan's waist with both hands.
As for the light bulb's Ye Zhong, he quickly left as soon as possible, leaving only the lingering two people behind.
The two slowly stepped into the room, the door was closed, the candles in the room were extinguished, and a touch of spring surged...
The next day, the sky was bright, but no one knocked on Su Qi'an's door. They had already received instructions from Ye Chong not to disturb the two of them talking quietly.
With the help of the light from the sky, two figures flickered vaguely in Su Qian's room.
Lu Xiaowan was sitting on the bedside dressing up, while Su Qian was sitting on the bedside, watching dreamily.
Lu Xiaowan turned her head and asked playfully, "Does it look good?"
"It looks good, it looks good."
"Hehe, let Mr. Xi see enough from now on.
. "
Su Qian stood up, walked behind Lu Xiaowan, put her hands on her shoulders, and said softly.
"Xiaowan will have to work hard from now on."
"It's Xiaowan's blessing to be able to follow Mr., there's no pain or suffering..."
But as soon as he said these words, he was interrupted by Su Qian, "I told you, this is not a blessing, this is Xiaowan's ability. My husband, I want to see my wife shine in the county."
"Okay, okay, Xiaowan will definitely give your husband a big surprise and impress him."
"My husband is impressed now." Su Qian's hand on his shoulder slowly slid down. Lu Xiaowan's face turned red and her breathing became rapid.
Just as the two were about to relive the good times, suddenly, there was a rapid knock on the door.
Lu Xiaowan tightened her clothes on one side of her body. Su Qian had no choice but to walk to the door and open it.
Just as he was about to give some accountability, he was interrupted by Ye Zhong's anxious voice.
"Sorry, Brother Su, the Wei family has counterattacked."
Su Qi'an frowned and said softly, "Don't worry, make it clear."
Ye Zhong nodded and handed the letter in his hand to Su Qian as he spoke.
Su Qian's eyes scanned the text on the letter, and his brows deepened.
The letter was written by none other than Fang Jingzhi from Lingbei County. The letter was very simple, with only two sentences.
First, ask Su Qi'an to return to Lingbei County as soon as possible. The second sentence is that the magistrate of Lingbei County has changed hands, and the new magistrate is Wei Yang, the second-ranked magistrate.
"Brother Su, this Wei family is really capable. They were able to arrange for Wei Yang to be the magistrate of Lingbei County. This is completely aimed at us. They want to drain the firepower. What should we do? Just go back."
Su Qian's eyes flashed, thinking, and then said, "Don't panic, the business in the county is at a critical moment. This time I will go back alone, and you stay in the county to assist Xiaowan."
"Brother Su, how can this be done? It's too dangerous for you alone. What if the Wei family takes action against you midway? This is absolutely not okay. Your safety is the most important thing at the moment."
Ye Chong shook his head repeatedly, disagreeing a hundred times.
Su Qi'an said, "Don't worry, I won't make fun of my life. The more this time, the less they dare to take action against me. Don't forget, Lingbei County is my territory. If there is an accident, there is no need to mess around." .”
