I'm the villain in the book

A carriage stopped outside the courtyard, and Tweety turned her head and called out with a clear voice.

Soon, He Jing walked out of the courtyard with a smile, carrying a small burden in his hand.

Three years ago, shortly after Wei Changtian left, the two got married.

No matter how the He family objected, He Jing still resisted all opinions and married Cui Er as his wife.

Afterwards, he was named on the gold list in the imperial examination, won the Jinshi, and "made an exception" to return to his hometown of Le'an Mansion as an official.

During his three years as an official, He Jing worked hard and devoted himself to serving the people, and was deeply loved by the people.

In addition, Su Qi knew that he seemed to have some relationship with Wei Changtian, so at the beginning of this spring, he was once again promoted to the left servant of the household department, and he chose a day to take up the post in Beijing.

In just three years, he went from an ordinary Juren to a third-rank Beijing official. It can be said that He Jing's official career has been smooth, unprecedented.

And he also knew the reason of all this, so he was not in a hurry to enter Beijing to take office, but planned to go to Shuzhou with Tweety before that.

One is that after three years of marriage, he has been busy with business and rarely has time to travel with Tweety, and this time he made up for it.

The second is to visit Wei Changtian and express his gratitude in person.

"Have the presents been packed?"

Helping Cui'er into the carriage, He Jing asked in a low voice: "There is also the letter His Majesty entrusted me to deliver to Mr. Wei, have you not forgotten it?"

"Don't worry, it's all set."

Tweety covered her mouth and smiled, "I'm not that careless."

"That's fine, that's fine."

He Jing gently took Cui'er's hand: "Tui'er, you have worked hard for the past three years, this time we will travel all the way to see the beauty of the world."

"Well, it's all fair."

Tweety smiled happily, and then sighed with anticipation in a low voice: "Master, how can you say that time flies by so quickly, but three years have passed."

"Sometimes when I think about it when I have nothing to do, I always feel that Mr. Wei just left yesterday."

"I don't know how Mr. Wei is doing now. Le'an can't get much information from here."

"By the way, I heard that there are already newspapers in the capital?"

"After we move to the capital, why should I buy it every day to see if there is anything related to Mr. Wei?"

"..."

The carriage moved slowly, carrying He Jing and Cui'er out of Le'an Fu City, heading east.

After a period of turmoil three years ago, the regime of Dahan is now very stable, the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and everything has returned to the prosperity of Daqian.

Although many people still do not agree with the "legitimacy" of the big man, and even still think that they are a big man.

But at the very least, with Su Qi, an emperor who "thinks of everything for the people", everyone really can't find too many reasons to restore the old dynasty.

That's right, Su Qi continued his style when he was the governor of Linchuan, and he should be the most considerate emperor in the world today.

And this is actually one of the most important reasons why Wei Changtian chose Su Qi in the first place.

It's just that he never told anyone about it.

A month later, He Jing and Tweety walked and played together, left Dahan, passed Dachu, and entered Xinfeng Land, a border town named "Chengjian".

I don't know if it was because he rarely ran around like this before, He Jing caught wind and cold on the day he entered the city.

After asking the innkeeper, Cui Er learned that the best medical center in the city was called "Ji Shi Tang", so she immediately took a car to fetch medicine for He Jing.

The sight of people coming and going outside the Jishitang also showed that the innkeeper was right. This medical center seemed to be quite trusted by the people in Chengjian City.

"Ma'am, there are a lot of people here, why don't you wait in the car for a while, and I'll go get the master some medicine."

After parking the carriage, the driver saw that there were so many people inside and outside the Jishi Hall, he couldn't help worrying that Tweety, a woman, would be easily bumped into.

Tweety was also worried about this, so she nodded and watched the coachman walk into the hospital quickly.

"Ginseng is one penny! Gastrodia elata is two pennies! Hawthorn is five."

"Take it well, remember to decoct it twice a day, and come back to get the medicine after five days."

"Thank you, Ms. Li! This is the twenty Wen I owed for my mother's medicine last time, and I brought it to you this time."

"It's okay, if you don't have a lot of money, you can go on credit for a few more days, it doesn't matter."

"How can it be! I owe no one and I can't owe you money, Miss Li! You will be struck by lightning!"

"Okay, then I will accept ten coins, and you can take the remaining ten coins back to buy more wheat seeds this year."

"..."

"Oh, Miss Li is so kind-hearted! She looks like a fairy! Being able to practice medicine in Jishitang is really a blessing for Chengjiancheng!"

"Who says no! I just don't know why Miss Li doesn't want to get married. So many people came to match her before, and I heard that she declined all of them."

"Maybe Miss Li already has someone in mind."

"But I haven't seen Miss Li getting close to any man."

"Okay, okay, stop talking, it's your turn."

Whispering echoed in the front hall, although there were several people attending the clinic at this time, only the queue in front of Li Wutong was the longest.

And the coachman just arrived, he naturally thought that this good-looking woman had the best medical skills, so he was also at the end of the queue, and waited for a full quarter of an hour before it was his turn.

"Girl, my master has contracted a cold and wants to grab some medicine to cure the cold."

It was the first time to see a woman for a consultation, and the driver didn't know what to call Li Wutong, but just now he heard that the latter was not married, so he simply called him "Miss".

And Li Wutong didn't care. After inquiring about the symptoms carefully, he shouted at the pharmacy behind him:

"Two coins for ephedra, four coins for cinnamon sticks, one coin each for Fangfeng, Angelica dahurica, and Chuanwu."

Soon, the wrapped medicine package was passed from the pharmacy to the front hall, and Li Wutong handed it to the driver, and said softly:

"Give your master a slow decoction and take it twice a day. It should be fine within three days."

"Thank you girl."

The coachman hurriedly took the medicine bag: "I wonder how much this medicine is?"

"Thirty texts."

"Okay? Thirty Wen?"

The hand that took out the money paused, and the driver's expression suddenly became a little weird.

He used to do some trivial things about picking up medicines before, so he had a general understanding of the prices of various common medicinal materials.

So... this is too cheap, right?

"Girl, why do you only charge thirty Wen? I'm afraid this medicine is not an old medicine?"

Frowning, the coachman immediately frowned and said: "Girl, my master is not short of money, you just need to dispense the most expensive new medicine, there is no need."

"What did you say!"

Dissatisfied shouts came from behind, and before Li Wutong could explain, someone angrily beat the injustice and said:

"Hmph! Neither you nor your master are from Chengjian Mansion!"

"Who in the entire Chengjian Mansion doesn't know that Jishitang never uses old medicines! Who doesn't know that Miss Li has a bodhisattva heart!"

"I think you're just asking for a fight!"

"Don't hurry up and apologize to Miss Li!"

"Yes! Hurry up and make amends to Miss Li! Otherwise, we won't spare you!"

"..."

In an instant, a group of people gathered around, excitedly asking the driver to apologize.

The latter had never seen such a scene, and how did he know that this female doctor was so loved in Chengjian City, so he couldn't help but froze on the spot.

Fortunately, Li Wutong quickly stood up and rescued him, which prevented the situation from deteriorating further.

And just when the little turmoil in Jishitang gradually subsided, Tweety outside the house suddenly ran out of the carriage, caught up with a woman in a pink skirt, and shouted out of breath:

"This, this girl! Wait a minute!"

"..."

Stopping and turning around, the moment she saw Tweety, the woman in the pink skirt had a flash of surprise in her eyes.

To be honest, whoever it is now will probably be surprised.

After all, the two look so much alike.

"This girl."

After slightly adjusting her breathing, Tweety walked a little closer.

She was just bored waiting in the car, so she opened the curtain to look at the pedestrians on the street.

As a result, he unexpectedly saw such a woman who looked very similar to himself.

Suddenly remembering what happened three years ago, Tweety immediately got out of the car and chased after her.

But now after she really caught up with the girl in the pink skirt, she didn't know what to say for a while, so she just gritted her teeth and asked directly:

"Dare to ask the girl. But the surname is You?"

"..."

Her eyes widened suddenly, and the expression of the woman in the pink skirt immediately became extremely vigilant. After taking a deep look at Tweety'er, she turned her head and walked into an alley.

Tweety was stunned for a moment, and hurried to chase after her.

But when she stood at the entrance of the alley, there was no one in the alley.

Standing there blankly, Tweety didn't know why the woman disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Obviously, judging from the latter's reaction, her surname should indeed be You.

As for whether it was Miss You that Wei Changtian was looking for, Cui'er didn't know, let alone why she ran away.

In short, people are indeed gone now.

After standing there for a while, Tweety shook her head, turned around and prepared to leave.

But just before leaving, she still yelled loudly into the empty alley——

"Miss You! Mr. Wei has been looking for you!"

"..."

Three days later, He Jing recovered from the cold, and he and Tweety also left Chengjian City.

Tweety naturally told He Jing about the girl in the pink skirt.

He Jing was not sure whether the former was the "Miss You", so he asked Cui Er if she had noticed any other details.

Cui'er recalled it for a long time, and finally remembered that the woman seemed to be wearing a peach blossom hairpin in her hair.

He Jing didn't say anything more, but silently kept this matter in his heart, and planned to tell Wei Changtian when he arrived in Shuzhou.

In this way, the two traveled eastward for more than half a month, and finally left Xinfeng in early March, crossed the Mang River and a piece of Gobi, and entered the boundary of Yuanzhou in Daning.

The "Yuanzhou City Massacre" five years ago was too tragic, so both of them had already heard about it.

Now five years have passed, Yuanzhou City is still in ruins, but occasionally Daning people will come here to mourn the relatives and friends who died in that tragedy.

However, Pingjiang County, which is not far from Yuanzhou City, has become more and more lively, and has become the closest border town to Xinfeng in the west of Daning.

"My lord, I originally thought that Pingjiang is so close to Yuanzhou City that the common people would not dare to stay here."

Walking side by side with He Jing on the long street, Cui Er said with a smile, "I never thought it would be so lively."

"Haha, I think it's because after Yuanzhou City was destroyed, this city became the place where the caravans between Yu Daning and Xinfeng stayed."

He Jing is worthy of being a Jinshi and an official. He immediately pointed out the key point: "Since ancient times, wherever there is a lot of business, it has been lively. Now that the five countries have close trade, it is not surprising that Pingjiang can be so prosperous."

"Ah, that's how it is."

Tweety nodded suddenly, and looked at He Jing with even more admiration.

But at this moment, the latter suddenly stopped, as if he was listening carefully.

"Sir, what's the matter?"
