Pei Jiaoran, who was so hungry that his eyes were dazzled by hunger, was too lazy to find out what Li Xiujing wanted to do. Devouring the rice dumplings in the bowl.

The long hair dyed with ink was tied loosely. The face is a blushing peach color, and the lips are not smudged but rather crimson. Wearing a goose-yellow jacket and a light green torn skirt, the coldness that enveloped her body was gone.

Not long after, Pei Jiaoran put down the porcelain spoon. He turned his head and met Li Xiujing's eyes. After taking a closer look, he moved his eyes to look elsewhere.

Li Xiujing, who realized that he had lost his composure, also turned his back.

At this moment, the servant came over with medicine, breaking the stagnant atmosphere.

"Thank you, the governor, for taking me in. I'd better do it myself when it comes to applying the medicine." Pei Jiaoran turned around and bowed seriously.

Li Xiujing stopped her movement with his arms crossed, "Pei Jiaoran, don't you have three heads and six arms? Both hands are injured, but you can also apply medicine yourself?" Seeing her cold eyes, her tone softened, "There are only you and me here, so there is no need to show off like this. .obedient."

After hearing this, Pei Jiaoran stopped resisting and let Li Xiujing apply the medicine for her.

I picked up the ointment with my fingertips and spread it on my fingertips. Li Xiujing gently applied the ointment on her fingers. Although the ointment is cold, the friction between the fingertips and fingers gradually generates warmth.

The warmth surges gracefully,

"Dugu Chen will not leave so soon. He came with the envoy Chijie to kill me. Even if he fails this time, he will not give up." Pei Jiaoran looked at Li Xiujing and said in a casual tone, "I I think he will leave a confidant behind and use him to check and balance you and me."

Pei Jiaoran analyzed it carefully, and Li Xiujing also listened with concentration. But my thoughts always drifted to Pei Jiaoran, who was standing in the snow in a green dress during the day.

It's clear when you see snow, and it's bright when you see frost.

The opening and closing of the crimson lips were not Wu Yin's soft words, but sharp calculations. Li Xiujing raised his eyes to look at her, stood up and came closer. Right now, he just wanted to silence the nagging voice.

Li Xiujing, who was burning with emotion, breathed deeply, but as he gradually came closer, a ray of coldness touched his lips.

He opened his eyes and saw only a pair of dull peach blossom eyes. Pei Jiaoran's long hair was also spread out. She held a plain silver hairpin in her hand and placed it against his lips.

"Provincial Governor, did you hear what the official said?"

Wu Yin is gone. Just like the sound of ice floes falling down the water when the ice melts and the snow melts, it penetrates Li Xiujing's ears. The biting coldness brought back his thoughts that had been lost somewhere.

"As you said, where will he place the people?" Li Xiujing sat back awkwardly.

After dipping the tail of the hairpin into tea, Pei Jiaoran wrote a note on the table to join the army, "I guess this is it. It can control you and monitor me."

This dynasty followed the old system of the previous dynasty and set up records to join the army. In charge of prefecture and county assessment documents and books, supervising talismans, and correcting the faults of prefecture and county officials. The eighth rank is the rank of Cao Cao in the army.

It seems that the official position is low, but it is equivalent to supervising the censor. Low weight. Therefore, governors have always liked to keep this person close to them to avoid being suppressed by others.

"What if I don't agree? His recommendation must be approved by me, the governor."

"He has an order from the imperial court, so why not?" Pei Jiaoran took a sip of tea and said, "It's a fact that it's unavailable to record affairs and join the army. So it's better to just follow his wishes for the time being."

This record of joining the army was the bait she prepared for Dugu Chen.

Li Xiujing didn't say anything this time. He pulled the white cotton cloth and wrapped it around her fingers with a gentle movement. It's like holding a rare treasure in your hand, but you don't dare to touch it with force.

The moment Li Xiujing stopped, Pei Jiaoran quickly stopped his hand and hid it in his sleeves. He looked like he was facing a formidable enemy.

Seeing Pei Jiaoran's appearance, Li Xiujing smiled.

"You shouldn't kneel to him today. At worst, I will carry it for you." Thinking of Dugu Chen's humiliation and contempt for Pei Jiaoran during the day, Li Xiujing felt that the anger in her heart was hard to calm down.

"The governor is wrong." Pei Jiaoran raised his head and looked at him seriously, "I knelt down to him to prevent them from suffering with me. He held the envoy, except you. He could kill many people present. What's more, this is not a way to win people's hearts."

Li Xiujing was silent when he heard this. He gave up the shadow of his family and joined the army to seek a way out. He controls and values ​​the military more than others. We also understand that different mastery methods are required for officers, courtiers, and ordinary soldiers.

The former is the ultimate form of military force, as it is invisible; if it is invisible, it cannot be seen from the depths, and a wise man cannot make plans. For superior officers and courtiers involved in military matters in the DPRK, they must learn to remain calm despite rain or shine. Because for these people, there is only endless desire and the desire for the highest power. There are more calculations in their minds than you think. You can't tell from which direction the cold arrow will come, let alone which arrow is going to kill you.

The latter need to be won over and they need to understand who is the master. Whether it is the state capital or the county government, it is both the imperial court and the army.

When a disaster strikes, the generals of the army will often judge their masters, but only the soldiers under their command will have the idea of ​​protecting their masters. If you love your pawn like a son and treat your pawn like a brother or sister, then your pawn will be loyal. Generals and pawns advance and retreat together. When you are full, you are also full. When both parties are hungry, even if you find food, you must give it to the people below first.

The spoils of war must also be distributed to the people below, and one should not take any of the spoils. Success can only be considered successful if you feed the group of people below.

Now Pei Jiaoran used his own body to block Dugu Chen's scorn for them. Isn't it an expression of caring for your subordinates?

She, the county magistrate, did not kneel down to Dugu Chen, but sacrificed her personal dignity to save them all. Lest they suffer the same indignity as she did.

After this incident, people in the state government and county government will admire Pei Jiaoran. If she hadn't sacrificed her life, I'm afraid everyone would be unable to hold their heads up.

"It doesn't have to be like this next time." Li Xiujing said dullly.

"Yeah. But I still have to thank the governor for speaking out today, otherwise I might have really been stripped of the county magistrate's uniform." Pei Jiaoran narrowed his eyes, with calculations in his eyes, "He held the envoy's belt, which really made it impossible for me to do anything. How can we get him to go back quickly?"

As he spoke, Pei Jiaoran frowned, with a look of disgust on his face. She really didn't like Dugu Chen.

After thinking for a while, Pei Jiaoran turned to look at Li Xiujing, "Li Shi, I suddenly have an idea. I just need your help."

Her peach blossom eyes were filled with calculations.

"You said."

"I wonder if the governor's assistant is a boy or a girl?" Pei Jiaoran raised his lips slowly, his eyes full of malicious calculations, "If she were a boy, it would be much easier to handle."

Looking at Pei Jiaoran with jade face and red lips, Li Xiujing frowned and opened his lips with difficulty, "A man."

"That'll be easy." Pei Jiaoran approached him and whispered a few words in his ear.

Li Xiujing frowned even more as he listened. He looked at Pei Jiaoran with a strange expression.

"I can let him try."

After getting the answer, Pei Jiaoran turned around. The long hair just brushed across Li Xiujing's face, making him feel itchy.

As if by mistake, Li Xiujing reached out and grabbed the long hair, trying to pull her into his arms. In the blink of an eye, a silver light flashed, and only a few strands of hair were left on his hand, while Pei Jiaoran was already standing a few steps away.

"The governor doesn't have hair himself? What do you want to do by pulling my hair?" Pei Jiaoran held a dagger and said displeasedly: "It's late at night, the governor should go back and rest."

After saying that, Pei Jiaoran turned around and lifted the curtain and went inside. In an instant, the candlelight behind the curtain suddenly went out.

Only the light in front of Li Xiujing was still on. He looked at the candlelight with helplessness in his eyes.

She kicked him out at the county government office, and she even kicked him out in her own territory.

After thinking for a while, Li Xiujing picked up the candle and left slowly.

But Pei Jiaoran, who was lying on the bed, had a serious look on his face.

What does Li Xiujing want to do?

She couldn't figure him out.

The overwhelming sleepiness finally eroded Pei Jiaoran's thoughts, her eyelids drooped and she fell into a deep sleep.
