Start in exile and use the space to pamper the yandere regent.

"It turns out to be Mr. Cheng." Xu Yixuan took two steps back, and then made a common courtesy to Cheng Shiyuan. Seeing that at this moment, the attention of almost everyone around her fell on herself, Xu Yixuan remained calm and calm, without any guilt. However, he still said a few words and briefly mentioned a few words, "Master Cheng, he and my brother once were in Bailu Academy together, and they were taught by the same master. Back then, I often heard my brother mention that Master Qian often praised Master Cheng. He is smart and alert, and has a talent for reading."

There's nothing I can do about it, these days, there's so much ape droppings going around and around.

As for the brother Xu Yixuan mentioned, naturally he could not be his biological brother, but a distant cousin of the old Shen family. It's a pity that the old Shen family is a merchant after all, and the descendants of the family, such as Xu Yixuan's cousin, are not qualified to take the imperial examination even if they have the talent for reading.

Therefore, Cheng Shiyuan seemed to be cheating, going through five levels and killing six generals until he got the top prize. But the cousin of the Shen family just left the academy with regret. The reason why the Shen family put so much effort into sending people to Bailu Academy in the first place was not only to learn some words so as not to be blind, but also to accumulate some connections.

Cheng Shiyuan actually didn't have much impression of Xu Yixuan, the old cousin of the Shen family.

The reason why I can still remember Xu Yixuan is because the little princess had specially asked someone to investigate before and found out that the young prince who was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion was about to marry a daughter-in-law who was the eldest daughter of Xu Cifu's family. And this eldest lady, who had been raised by Xu Ci in her hometown in Jiangnan since she was a child, happened to be from the same county as her own county horse.

How could the little princess not care about such a coincidence? When the little princess was in the Bei Mu Royal Court in her early years, she often listened to her mother Qing and the eldest princess talking about each other, recalling those regrets and unwillingness.

Therefore, after learning that his own county had been appointed by Emperor Qi Hui to become the governor, he was said to be solely responsible for the disaster relief work in Zhongzhou County, but in fact he might have met Xiao Qingmei by chance, which made him a lot of jealous.

Cheng Shiyuan struggled to remember for a long time, and then he vaguely remembered that there seemed to be such a frail and sickly classmate who was quite beautiful.

Cheng Shiyuan's trip was unlucky. I wonder if Emperor Qi Hui really had no one to assign to him. On the surface, Cheng Shiyuan was given full responsibility for disaster relief, but the court didn't have a grain of food, let alone any real gold. It's silver, not a single copper penny.

Euphemistically speaking, Cheng Shiyuan was allowed to play freely. To put it bluntly, he was still thinking about Xu Yixuan's 100,000 taels of gold dowry worth nearly one million taels. Even though he had taken out 300,000 taels from Xu Cifu intermittently in recent days, he was still not very satisfied.

Xu Yixuan said that she really understood. She had wiped out Emperor Qi Hui's private treasury and the household bank.

"Master Cheng, if you don't mind it, you can use some together with me. However, many people are infected with the epidemic, and I'm afraid it will harm you." Xiao Jinren learned that Governor Cheng Shiyuan had arrived and hurriedly walked out of the tent.

"Infected?" Cheng Shiyuan obviously took several steps back, smiled uglier than crying, and said sarcastically, "I, I, the governor, asked someone to bring some herbal medicine. I wonder if Mr. Xiao has a doctor here. Let’s see if there’s anything we can use.”

No matter how tempting the smell of the chicken soup in front of him was, he could not resist the risk of infection. Even the risk seemed quite high, so Cheng Shiyuan was naturally unwilling to stay any longer.

So, no longer caring about what was going on, he found an excuse and hurried back to the carriage from whence he came.
