After rebirth, I joined forces with my mortal enemy to seek revenge.

Li Xiujing looked at Pei Jiaoran in front of him and didn't know what to say for a moment. She sees everything so clearly that she even calculates every step accurately. She looks like she is good at dancing and can move around easily, but in fact she is extremely restrained and reserved. She knows what she wants.

Her current goals all come from her demands.

From the moment she planned to deal with Wang Shizhao, from the moment she planned to take up the post of general on her own, and even from the moment she bowed her head in the face of Dugu Chen's humiliation, she had already shouted out her demands. What she wants is to pave the way for her to return to Chang'an. With the best exams, she will first enter Taiwan Province as an official, then enter the Sixth Ministry, and finally ascend to Feng Pavilion.

He looked at her moon-white robe and looked at her face, which was as white as porcelain, but there was frost on her head and temples. A pair of peach blossom eyes are still ruthless and tasteless, with a hint of mockery. Li Xiujing moved his eyes and smiled: "You asked Chu You to release the news just to make Zhao Heng offend the rich?"

"He wants to pick high branches, so naturally I have to help him." Pei Jiaoran said with sly eyes.

"How sure are you?"

"Sixty percent. But Zhao Heng is already the target of public criticism. No matter what he thinks, he must investigate." Pei Jiaoran raised his lips and smiled, "Otherwise, countless people will stare at him."

Li Xiujing nodded, "You can do whatever you want, but you can come find me at any time." As if thinking of something, Li Xiujing moved closer to Pei Jiaoran, "Did you promise me anything before?"

"Um?"

Looking at Pei Jiaoran who looked confused, Li Xiujing grinned and said, "Call me Erlang when no one is around."

Pei Jiaoran glanced at him and turned away. It was as if he didn't understand the meaning of Li Xiujing's words.

"But there is no one at the moment." Pei Jiaoran tilted his head to measure Li Xiujing, grabbed his chin with one hand, and placed the other on his Adam's apple, and slowly raised his lips, "Although you look good, Governor, you are not what I like. Hope. You love yourself and don't recommend yourself to me again."

Li Xiujing had deep and wide eyes, long eyebrows at the temples, and a cold and stern eyebrow arch. Another pair of phoenix eyes as gentle as wash with ink. It’s a one-in-a-million look.

The Adam's apple rolled under the heat of the fingertips. Li Xiujing looked at her and said in a gentle tone, "Then you can shout when there is no one around. Then you are not allowed to cheat anymore."

"I obey your order. I was rude just now. I hope the governor will not blame you." Pei Jiaoran stopped his hand and saluted him.

Seeing Li Xiujing waving his hand, Pei Jiaoran relaxed his eyebrows.

"Since it's still early, why don't the governor go to Chu Sihu for a walk?"

The public house in Guazhou was quiet, with only a few officials going in and out. But all the public rooms had their doors closed, and the lanterns on the porch were swaying in the wind.

Pei and Li entered the public house in Guazhou and quietly walked to the front of the public house. He squatted aside and opened half of the window to look inside.

I saw Chu Sihu standing in front of the case holding an accounting book with a puzzled face. And Zhao Heng sat up and looked at him.

Pei Jiaoran looked at the two of them intently, lips touching. She asked Li Xiujing that Chu Sihu was in charge of both Sihu and Sicang Cao. It controls household registration, accounting, roads, corvee services, taxes, public houses, warehouses, etc. The affairs are complicated, and it is equivalent to holding Guazhou's wealth in his hands. It can be said to be of low weight.

After a long silence, Zhao Heng ordered Chu Sihu to submit the account books.

He rolled his eyes a few times and glanced at Chu Sihu. In a low voice, he ordered his servant to pour tea and hand it to Chu Sihu, while he continued to look down at the account.

Chu Sihu felt a little uneasy as he held the tea cup. From time to time, he raised his head and glanced at Zhao Heng, his eyes showing contemplation.

"Zhao Heng is deliberately wasting Chu Sihu." Pei Jiaoran lowered his voice and approached Li Xiujing and said.

The smell of Xun Lingxiang entered his nose, and Li Xiujing moved his eyes. His eyes fell on Pei Jiaoran's red earlobes, and his eyes dimmed slightly. He couldn't help but move towards the exposed half of her neck.

"Don't get so close, I can't hear you." Li Xiujing glared at her and scolded: "Have you never considered that I am a hot-blooded man?"

"Don't the governors always pride themselves on being prudent?"

Li Xiujing gritted his teeth when he heard this.

Mu Han glanced at Li Xiujing teasingly, and Pei Jiaoran turned around and continued to peek at the situation inside the house.

Chu Sihu's hand holding the tea trembled slightly, but Zhao Heng was still looking down at the account. But it's still the same pages as before, and the thickness hasn't changed.

"Chu Sihu, please ask someone to get the account from the military treasury."

Looking at Zhao Heng, Chu Sihu opened his mouth. In the end, Li Zuo was ordered to move the account books.

The two spent the whole morning in the public room, and it was not until the afternoon that Zhao Heng asked Chu Sihu to leave.

Chu Sihu fled out quickly as if he had been pardoned. When he saw this, Pei Jiaoran raised his eyes. Get up slowly and walk outside.

Before taking a few steps, Pei Jiaoran suddenly turned around and came back. He pressed Li Xiujing against the wall and whispered in his ear, "Zhao Heng is out." Without giving him a chance to react, he kissed her.

"Who?" Zhao Heng came over looking for the voice and yelled angrily.

Hearing the movement, Li Xiujing exerted force on her hand and changed positions with Pei Jiaoran, placing her hand on the back of her head. In response to the kiss that was not passionate and sincere.

Fei robe silver fish bag, you can know who it is without even thinking. Zhao Heng froze in place.

"Zhao joins the army." Li Xiujing turned his head, looking unhappy.

When the white moon fell into his eyes, Pei Jiaoran stretched out his head to look at Zhao Heng and blinked. He fastened the collar of his robe as if nothing had happened.

"I'm sorry for you. I don't intend to disturb the governor Yaxing. I'll take my leave first." Zhao Heng looked away when he saw this.

"It has been said that people coming and going in public houses will be seen, and the governor must do this." Pei Jiaoran smiled on his lips, "The lower official is not as thick-skinned as the provincial governor, the lower official is very thin-skinned."

Hearing this, Li Xiujing's expression remained as usual, "It doesn't matter. Why did Zhao Canjun leave at this time?"

"Hey, aren't you two hungry? You can ask about business after dinner." Pei Jiaoran interjected warmly.

Seeing that Li Xiujing didn't refute, Zhao Heng had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to the public kitchen to eat with the two of them.

Zhao Heng, who was worried, kept his head buried in eating. It seemed like he was thinking about something.

"The Governor and Pei Ming's Mansion..." Zhao Heng, unable to hold back, finally asked.

"People have six desires, and lust is just one of them. Doesn't Zhao Canjun have lust?" Putting down his chopsticks, Pei Jiaoran looked at Zhao Heng sympathetically, "Although the Buddha said that love for people is like holding a torch against the wind, or there is a burning. It's a problem, but you and I are neither saints, how can we give up our desires. This place is wonderful, Zhao Shenjun can find someone to experience it."

Seeing Zhao Heng's calm expression, Pei Jiaoran smiled and stopped the topic appropriately.

"Zhao Canjun, how did you check the public house's accounts?"

Listening to Li Xiujing's inquiry, Zhao Heng said: "I just asked Chu Sihu to move the account book to the public house. After checking it, I found that there are indeed problems in some places."

Li Xiujing raised her hand to signal him to continue.

"My official checked today and found that the current monthly interest rate for public debts in Guazhou is 12 cents. Is it a bit high? It is also very serious for money-grabbers to mix private money for profit when they pay debts. So I want to ask Should this matter be investigated? How should it be investigated?"
