[Water Margin] Ximen is a fake official

After a meal, Ximen Qingqing took a walk to digest food, and a tall figure followed her step by step.

Ximen Qingqing stopped and walked, waiting for him to speak.

But she had been wandering in the garden for an hour, and the person who wanted to speak still didn't speak.

Ximen Qingqing stopped helplessly, and the steps behind him also stopped.

Ximen Qingqing said, "You have been with me for so long, do you still want to apologize for breaking off a corner of the table again?"

Yang Zhi lowered his head, apologizing honestly and silently.

He gave a low "hmm".

"Huh?" Ximen Qing raised his voice and looked back at him.

Seeing him like this, he was shocked, and quickly said: "No, it's not."

Ximen Qingqing smiled, "Then why are you here?"

Yang Zhi raised his head, his eyes were deep and depressed, he just looked at her, but didn't speak.

He finally lowered his eyes.

His eyes fell on the little official's shoes, which turned slightly towards his direction, and then, walking step by step, the soles of the shoes rolled over the fallen flowers on the bluestone road, staining the white soles with a touch of rouge red.

He caught his breath.

Yang Zhi hated himself even more, he even felt sorry for himself.

Why can't he just see the flower juice on the shoes of the little official and can't help thinking, is he still human?

The relationship between him and the little official is obviously brothers, benefactor and beneficiary, how can he be worthy of the little official if he thinks like this?

Yang Zhi's fingertips trembled, he raised his hand suddenly, and slapped himself hard.

The crisp sound of "pa" startled Ximen Qingqing.

As soon as Yang Zhi lifted the hem of his clothes, he bent his knees and was about to kneel down.

Ximen Qingqing suddenly called out, "Don't kneel!"

Yang Zhi suddenly stopped his movements and looked up at him.

Ximen Qingqing sighed, "Why are you doing this? Apologize honestly and say that you drank too much and this kind of thing won't happen again, won't it be fine?"

Why do you have to make such trouble?

Ximen Qingqing smiled, "Okay, I've already made a sample for you, should you know how to say it?"

Yang Zhi gave a heavy "hmm".

Ximen Qingqing showed a smiling face, "Go ahead."

He closed his eyes, his Adam's apple moved slightly, and blue veins appeared faintly on his neck.

He opened his mouth and said hoarsely, "I'm sorry, little official."

"I was so drunk last night that I was so disrespectful to the petty official. The petty official can deal with Yang Zhi as he pleases."

Wouldn't that be good?

Ximen Qingqing said with a smile: "It's also a moment of confusion to think about you, so I won't..."

"But—" Yang Zhi suddenly elongated his voice, and opened his eyes suddenly.

His eyes were sharp and surging, as if something could no longer be suppressed.

Ximen Qingqing's heart skipped a beat, her detective instinct told her that something out of her control had happened.

Yang Zhi stared at Ximen Qingqing, and suddenly took a step forward.

Ximen Qingqing felt as if he was being watched by a wild beast, and wanted to take a few steps back.

No, you can't retreat here.

Ximen Qingqing looked at him quietly with a smile on his face.

He licked his dry lips and repeated in a low voice: "But..."

He made up his mind and said, "...Yang Zhi dare not hide from the petty official, Yang Zhi cannot guarantee that such a thing will not happen in the future."

Ximen Qingqing: "..."

Wow, you really dare to say it, you are the kind of person who said "I can apologize, but I just die and never repent", right?

Ximen Qingqing said with a half-smile, "It turns out that you thought so, so is it necessary for you to apologize? Anyway, you've never changed your mind."

Yang Zhi blinked hard, his brows were furrowed tightly, his expression was troubled and depressed.

He said: "I apologize because I know that this is something that should not have happened, it was wrong, and my tutor did not allow me to hide my mistakes."

Ximen Qingqing was laughed angrily by him, "Then your tutor just keeps making mistakes?"

He was full of embarrassment at what she said, there were blue marks on one side of his face, and the other cheek was already flushed.

Yang Zhi: "I said this to the officials because I really can't hide it from them anymore."

The corners of the big man's eyes were red, he closed his eyes tightly and clenched his fists.

"I have thoughts that I shouldn't have about petty officials. No matter how I try to hide them, I can't hide them. When I close my eyes, I will see officials. When I open my eyes, I will think about officials. Even if I get drunk and lose my mind, Still doing this kind of thing to officials..."

Yang Zhi lowered his head dejectedly, "I'm really sorry for the officer, I don't deserve the officer to clear up my grievances, I... the officer! Unless you kill me, I still can't promise the officer that this will not happen again matter."

"Yang Zhi!" Ximen Qingqing stared at him, as if angry.

Yang Zhi smiled wryly in his heart, the officials should be angry, after all, how disgusting it would be to be thought of by a man like him.

Although he is a child of the old family, he does not have some of the depraved and dirty habits of the children of the old family. He is usually clean and self-conscious, and has never been emotional.

He never thought that once he fell in love, he would fall on a man like this.

The positions of the two exchanged. If Yang Zhi knew that a man liked him, Xiao thought to himself that he might not be able to help but beat that man up to wake him up.

Ximen Qingqing said angrily, "What are you talking about!"

Yang Zhi was ready to be beaten up by the little official, but he was rough and thick, I hope the little official wouldn't hurt his hand because of it.

"I have worked so hard to clean up your grievances and return your innocence. How dare you tell me it's not worth it?"

Uh?

Yang Zhi was dumbfounded.

Is this the reason why the petty official is angry?Is the focus wrong?

He looked at Ximen Qingqing, Ximen Qingqing pointed at him and said, "I don't want to see you now, you go and think about it for me, I will defend you, is it wrong to return your innocence?"

Ximen Qingqing doesn't care about other things, except for matters related to solving the case.

Yang Zhi hurriedly said: "No, no, it's Yang Zhi who said it wrong, the little official is right, it's Yang Zhi who was fooled by lard for a while, and actually said such a thing."

Yang Zhi: "I was really wrong..."

Ximen Qingqing sighed, "You know what I care about most, so don't poke my heart like this."

Yang Zhi looked ashamed.

Ximen Qingqing: "Okay, go down, get a good night's sleep, and stop thinking about things after being drunk. Since drunkenness will cause bad things, then drink less."

He was dejected, "What the officials said is true."

Ximen Qingqing: "My wish in life is to clarify the truth of all the cases in the world and clear up the grievances in the world. Yang Zhi, do you understand me?"

Yang Zhi raised his head and pursed his lips. After a long time, he said with a trembling voice: "Yang Zhi understands, Yang Zhi will follow the petty officials wholeheartedly."

Only then did Ximen Qingqing smile again.

Yang Zhi looked at her smile, and thought: Forget it, let it be like this, the little official deliberately avoided the fact that he had delusional thoughts about her, just to improve the face of the two of them.

He had no choice but to hide his intentions to the bottom of his heart, trusting the little official wholeheartedly as usual.

At the beginning, he never thought that his unreserved trust in the small official contained that kind of meaning, until he saw the young official's wife in the mansion, the ignorant emotions hidden in his body suddenly burst out .

It turned out that he would be jealous of the petty official's wife, it turned out that he couldn't stand Mrs. Chen's demonstration in front of him, it turned out...it was all because of his admiration.

When he woke up drunk and recalled the strange things he did, Yang Zhi finally had to admit his intentions, but at the same time, he also knew with inferiority that he was not worthy of a petty official.

He has a birthmark on his face, looks ugly, doesn't he have a lot of money on him, but he is just a small governor, earning his living under Mr. Liang's hands, he... what can he give to a petty official?

Alone, only one life.

Yang Zhi raised his clothes, put his knees on the ground, and kowtowed heavily to Ximen Qingqing.

He said: "Yang Zhi doesn't want to go back to the Daming Mansion, Yang Zhi wants to follow the officials, be a guest, a helper, a thug, whatever."

He closed his eyes, "Please let Yang Zhi follow the little official."

He raised his face, closed his eyes tightly, with a shameful and secret look on his face.

Ximen Qingqing knew that he had always had the pride of being a child of the old family, and wanted to make a name for himself in the officialdom, but now that he could say such a thing to himself, it showed how difficult it was for him.

Ximen Qingqing said softly: "'The three armies can win the commander, but the common man cannot lose the ambition'. Yang Zhi, if you want to stay by my side to help, I will take care of the relationship for you and let you serve as an official under my command. I will wrong you, you don't have to."

She helped him up, and patted his back tenderly, "You have pride, I don't need you to break it for me."

Yang Zhi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes, facing her smiling face.

She knew him so well, so why wouldn't he go through fire and water for her?

Yang Zhi's heart was burning, and his infinite desire turned into a sigh in his throat.

After the two left, a figure jumped down from the garden pavilion.

The figure scratched his head helplessly, "I just wanted to find a place to sleep, why did I see this scene..."

He turned his head and glanced at the direction Ximen Qingqing left.

……

After a few days, it was Cai Taishi's birthday on June [-]th.

Before that, Ximen Qingqing found Huarong who was lying on the stone in the garden and sleeping soundly.

He was lying on his side on a large flat rock among the flowers, with his right hand as his pillow, sleeping very soundly.

Originally, he was also very vigilant when sleeping, but this time he didn't wake up until Ximen Qingqing came close.

Has he been very tired lately?

Ximen Qingqing squatted in front of him and looked at him carefully, only to see that the dark circles on his eyes were getting deeper and deeper.

Obviously it was only that one night, and it was only one night if he didn't sleep well, so why did his dark circles get heavier and heavier, did he become a thief in the middle of the night?

Ximen Qingqing didn't observe any extra clues from him, so he planned to wake him up first.

She pulled a dog's tail grass from the flowers.

She rested her chin with one hand, and pinched the root of the dogtail grass with the other, poking her furry head into his face,

She first pinched the dog's tail grass and shook it on Huarong's face.

His chest rose and fell steadily, as if he was still asleep.

Ximen Qingqing swept his sleeping pink cheeks with the dog's tail grass.

He still didn't wake up.

Ximen Qingqing said to himself, "You didn't take my Mafeisan by mistake, did you?"

She casually scratched his face with the dog's tail grass a few times, sliding it all the way to the corner of his mouth.

His lips were red, with a pink petal stuck to it, perhaps blown by the wind.

Ximen Qingqing used the dog's tail grass as a broom to sweep away the petals on his lips little by little.

The fluffy green fur brushed the beads of the lips and brushed the lines of the lips.

Just as she was about to sweep away the petals, his lips moved, as if stimulated by the soft hairs on the dogtail grass.

His lips were slightly opened, revealing a little bit of tooth marks, and the petals slid inward.

She hurriedly hooked the petals with dogtail grass.

His lips closed at this moment without leaving a single gap, and the two red lips squeezed the dogtail grass.

Ximen Qingqing opened his eyes wide.

This dog's tail grass is easy to shed hair, you must not eat it, it is easy to eat it, and your mouth will be covered with hair.

Fortunately, he just pursed his lips slightly, and then opened them again.

Ximen Qingqing hastily pulled back the dog's tail grass.

However, the top of the dogtail grass is a little missing, and the middle is still wet and wet.

It's over, you really ate it, didn't you?

Ximen Qingqing poked his head to look, and saw that his lips were slightly parted, and there was still a piece of green fluff on his lips, which was the soft fur of dogtail grass that had been brushed off by his mouth.

This is how to do ah.

Ximen Qingqing tilted his head and blew on his lips.

Fortunately, those soft hairs are relatively light, and they will run away as soon as she blows them.

She took a deep breath and blew again.

At this moment, Hua Rong suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were clear.

Ximen Qingqing: "..."

Huarong: "..."

The two stared at each other, surprised at the same time.

Ximen Qingqing hurriedly said, "I'm not, I didn't..."

Hua Rong's pupils shrank, and he jumped back suddenly, but he forgot that the boulder was not very wide. He stepped back and rolled off the stone with a sound of "ouch", and fell into the flowers.

"Are you okay?" Ximen Qingqing jumped onto the boulder.

On the other side of the boulder, Hua Rong in a red robe smashed into the flowers with a blank expression on his face, his body was covered with petals, and his hair was also full of flowers. Although he was in a mess, he was more chic than a young man with flowers all over his head. Korea.

Ximen Qingqing lowered his head and smiled, and hurriedly held out his hand, "Get up quickly, fortunately, they are all flowers, and there are no needle-like plants."

If there is a row of cacti planted in the back, you are afraid that you will lie on the hospital bed now and ask An Daoquan to pull out the needle for you.

However, instead of holding her hand, Hua Rong jumped up and took a few steps back.

Ok?

Hua Rong also knew that his actions just now were a bit of a fuss, he hurriedly smiled and said, "What is Brother Qing coming here for?"

Ximen Qingqing talked about the business: "Taishi Cai's birthday is coming soon. I know Brother Hua, you have excellent archery skills and high skills. Just being a small Zhizhai is really degrading my brother's talent. If my brother wants to go one step closer , I can introduce my brother to Taishi Cai."

Huarong didn't expect that he was talking about his own promotion path.

"You mean..." Hua Rong hesitated.

I have to say that Ximen Qingqing's proposal is very tempting, but on the other hand he doesn't like Taishi Cai.

Ximen Qingqing knew what he was thinking when he saw his expression.

She smiled and said: "I also know about Cai Taishi's crimes. Right now, I am slowly collecting evidence of his embezzlement and breaking the law under his hands, and I am going to submit them to His Majesty. When people with real skills do something, think of me as laying eggs with the help of chickens, and use Taishi Cai's power to pave the way for truly talented people."

After hearing what she said, Hua Rong said in shame: "I am old, but I want you to think about me. I know my brother's heart for me, but... I don't want you to make things difficult."

"Grand Master Cai has been in a high position for a long time, so he has a big temper. You can't help being angry around him. Brother Qing, you are obviously upright and dedicated to the people, but because you want to collect evidence from these powerful officials, you have to get mixed up with these high-ranking officials and do things against your will. , Brother, I admire him very much."

"It's been very difficult for you. I only hate that I can't do anything for you. Why would I want you to help me pave a road to Qingyun?"

Hua Rong looked at her, and smiled slowly, "I have a sincere relationship with brother Qing, if you don't want to talk about it, brother Qing should stop talking about it, even though I'm a small senior official, one day I will be promoted based on my merits of."

Everyone has their own choice, Ximen Qingqing naturally understands.

Huarong looked around, and whispered: "You must be careful around these people, and don't tell others about collecting evidence of their embezzlement and perverting the law, 'People's hearts are separated from the belly', there is no guarantee that no one will exchange you for yours future."

Ximen Qingqing: "I only told you this."

So he was so trusted by Ximen Qing?

Hua Rong's expression was both moved and excited, "My good brother, don't worry, I will never tell anyone about this matter again."

Ximen Qingqing naturally changed the subject: "Speaking of which, what happened to my brother recently? Why is there such a heavy blue and black color on my brother?"

Huarong's originally smiling face froze.

"Uh……"

He looked around and touched his nose.

Ximen Qingqing thoughtfully said: "If brother is in trouble, then I won't ask. Brother should take good care of himself. It turns out that brother is very alert when he sleeps. I called him several times just now, but he didn't wake up."

Hua Rong: "Hmm...Okay."

He seemed to think of something again, raised his head, and asked in doubt: "When did you see me sleeping and alert?"

Ximen Qingqing: "It's not... that day we shared the same bed..."

Hua Rong froze and avoided his sight.

"Then you got so close just now... are you calling me?"

Ximen Qingqing was calm and composed: "Yes."

Anyway, the foxtail grass has been lost, "destroying corpses and eradicating traces".

Ximen Qingqing squinted his eyes and looked at his uncomfortable expression, "Did brother see something?"

Hua Rong was taken aback and looked at her with his mouth open.

Well, there's no need to ask any more questions, his expression already said it all, maybe he overheard her conversation with Yang Zhi that day, which made him behave so strangely when facing her.

Ximen Qingqing chatted casually with him again, and when she was about to leave, Huarong stopped her again.

She looked back and smiled.

Huarong's face is young and fresh, but his expression is mature and serious.

He said: "Otherwise, I'd better go with the officials. Grand Master Cai celebrates his birthday, and there must be chaos in the house. I will follow Brother Qing, and I can protect Brother Qing."

"Thank you very much then."

……

On June [-]th, Ximen Qingqing changed into a set of bright-colored robes, a jade belt cinched her slender waist, and a new handkerchief on her head. Rong went to Cai Taishi's residence together.

Huarong didn't bring any good clothes, the robe on his body was tailor-made for him by Ximen Qingqing. It was a bright green robe, with flower branches and leaves embroidered with gold thread on it. Wearing a blue towel and flower boots, he really looks like a wealthy and beautiful official.

It's just that under such a beautiful flower group, there are vigorous muscles and dangerous force hidden.

The two rode their horses to the gate of Cai Taishi's mansion, there were already servants waiting at the gate to lead their horses to the dismounting stone.

Ximen Qingqing was about to dismount when he heard a clear "brother" from behind.

Before she could turn around, the man rushed forward, ready to help Ximen Qingqing get off the horse instead of the servant.

This person is none other than Gao Ya Nei whom I haven't seen for a long time.

How dare the servants of Cai Taishi's mansion ask the guest Gao Yanei to help him.

The servant hurriedly said: "Ya Nei, Ya Nei, it's better to let the villain come, you can just rest at the side."

Gao Yanei raised his head, looked longingly at Ximen Qingqing who was on the tall horse, and said repeatedly: "No, no, I haven't seen my brother for a long time, let me get close to my brother."

As soon as Ximen Qingqing turned her head, she saw Hua Rong who had dismounted was looking at her with a complicated expression.

Ximen Qingqing: "..."

Wait, listen to my explanation.

Ximen Qingqing really felt that in Hua Rong's eyes, he might have become a flirtatious "man".

Ximen Qingqing waved his hand at Gao Yamen, "You look good today, come, stand over there and show me."

Gao Yanei's eyes lit up, and he immediately stood aside happily, and opened his arms to let Ximen Qingqing take a good look at his newly made robe.

Only then did Ximen Qingqing get off the horse.

The servant wiped the sweat from his forehead.

This is really one thing and one thing.

Ximen Qingqing praised Gao Yanei's clothes and wanted to enter the mansion with her, Hua Rong followed her closely.

Gao Yanei was paying attention to Ximen Qingqing at first, but later he also saw Hua Rong.

He raised his chin and said domineeringly: "Who is this person? What are you doing with my brother all this time?"

Ximen Qingqing ignored Gao Yanei's pediatric provocation, she glanced to the side, "Hey, who is that, the clothes are really nice."

"Who is so so?" Gao Yanei yelled while looking around, but he didn't see any particularly good clothes.

Ximen Qingqing said slowly, "Oh, it turned out to be a potted flower, I misread it, I misread it."

She successfully diverted Gao Yanei's attention.

They walked to the front of the hall, several tables had been set up in front of the hall, Grand Master Cai was dressed in bright clothes to entertain guests.

In fact, Ximen Qingqing didn't want to join in the fun, and she didn't want Grand Master Cai to introduce her to any dignitaries, so she sat down at a table in the corner, who knew that Gao Yanei also followed her to sit down.

Here in Kaifeng Mansion, Gao Yanei is considered a famous person. As soon as he sat down, some people looked over, which also caught Taishi Cai's attention.

When Grand Master Cai saw Ximen Qingqing, he immediately laughed, "My son Donglou is here, come, come, everyone, come and meet."

As he spoke, he waved to Ximen Qingqing.

Ximen Qingqing had no choice but to walk over.

Cai Taishi held Ximen Qingqing's arm and introduced the crowd around her for her.

Those people praised him one after another: "It's really a good-looking talent, a dragon and a phoenix among people."

"The appearance is dignified, it is really extraordinary!"

"As expected of Master Cai's godson, he has inherited his demeanor."

"If you didn't look carefully, you would think it was Mrs. Cai's own son. Your godson really looks like Mr. Cai."

The corner of Ximen Qingqing's mouth twitched.

Please, everyone, you have to pay attention to the basics when flattering, okay? Don't close your eyes and talk nonsense. Take a closer look, do I look like Mrs. Cai?Does he have the appearance of my height?

It's a pity that she can only complain about these things in her heart, with a shy smile on her face.

Cai Taishi asked her: "Since you are here, why don't you come to sit in front of the old man and find a place so far away?"

Ximen Qingqing said with a smile: "Your Excellency is the host and center of this banquet. I didn't dare to disturb Your Excellency in the east building, so I just found a seat and sat down. I will come to see Your Excellency when there are fewer people."

Cai Taishi was very happy to be coaxed by her.

"Okay, okay, it's better for you to be filial in the East Building, then you don't want to go there, come, you sit at my table."

Ximen Qingqing: "..."

You think my reputation is too good, and there are too few people who want to kill me, right?

Ximen Qingqing: "How is this possible?"

Grand Master Cai: "Of course I can if the old man says it's possible. Donglou, you are like the old man's own son."

He patted the back of Ximen Qingqing's hand amiably.

Seeing this scene, everyone immediately praised Ximen Qingqing with all their strength, trying to flatter Ximen Qingqing from all directions and from multiple angles, so that Ximen Qingqing could be photographed comfortably.

But Ximen Qingqing was used to big scenes when he was a world-renowned detective, so he was naturally not afraid of these people's bragging, and he remained calm and kept going.

Some officials who originally talked to Ximen Qingqing only because of Taishi Cai's face appreciated Ximen Qingqing even more.

Under Cai Taishi's introduction, Ximen Qingqing talked with several adults who could help her get promoted.

Afterwards, everyone took their seats, and Cai Taishi also brought Ximen Qingqing into his own table.

When the banquet was about to start, a servant hurried over and whispered something in Cai Taishi's ear. Cai Taishi showed a satisfied smile, stood up and said to everyone: "Everyone, the official is here."

The banquet was suddenly bustling.

After a while, a figure in a bright yellow brocade robe walked in from the door.

Cai Taishi led the crowd to kneel down and shouted long live.

Ximen Qingqing took a sneak peek at His Majesty, but His Majesty was still expressionless and stupefied.

He didn't even speak directly to Taishi Cai, but turned to look at an eunuch who had been following behind him.

The eunuch immediately stepped forward, opened the imperial decree, and said that the official family had rewarded Cai Taishi with a lot of jewels for his years of hard work.

Cai Taishi took the order to thank you, his face was flushed, and he was very proud of the spring breeze.

He persuaded His Majesty to stay and have fun with the people, but His Majesty who was stunned somehow agreed to this idea.

Taishi Cai led the officials to their table.

Because of the presence of officials, everyone at the banquet was secretly winking at each other, and no one dared to speak.

After the officials were seated, Cai Taishi immediately asked the family to play music and dance.

Seeing the official's blank expression, Ximen Qingqing eased a lot.

He seems to enjoy listening to music.

Cai Taishi naturally also noticed the micro-expression of the officials, and he expressed his loyalty to dedicate all his family tricks to the officials.

The official waved his hand.

Grand Master Cai refused to give up, and said again: "Your Majesty, have you read the storybooks on the interface recently, and there are many storybooks in the market now that are created with my son Donglou as the protagonist."

Wait, there is such a thing?How do I not know?

Ximen Qingqing looked suspicious.

The officials also seemed to be interested, "The storybook, what kind of storybook?"

Grand Master Cai stroked his beard with a smile, "Some are about how Donglou can see through the details and get rid of violence, and some are about Donglou's adventure from Kaifeng Mansion to Daming Mansion."

Ximen Qingqing almost spit out his wine.

How long has she been back, why does she even have a storybook?

Wait, since there are serious scripts, there are also non-serious scripts, right?

Ximen Qingqing covered his face with a headache.

Ah, why, why can't she get rid of the fate of being trapped even if she travels to the Water Margin world?

The author has something to say: wait for me to catch bugs~
