My lord, your plan is too obvious

In the afternoon of that day, Ruohua replied to Qi Guang's note from the previous day, saying that he was willing to take over the position of scientific examination supervisor.

After Si Nian returned home, Yan Qi was called:

"He's going south this time, and you must be with him at all times."

Yan Qi showed embarrassment:

"Master, the supervisor's position is already eye-catching. If you follow up in the open, in case someone checks it..."

"You follow, I will send a few people to follow in secret, I want to see who is investigating."

"Yes……"

"You seemed to have a good time in Liunan area in the past two years?" Si Nian asked in a casual tone.

Yan Qi trembled... Two years ago, I was sent to pretend to be a rich man to get close to the sons of several ministers in the court. Naturally, I wanted to play with them and hang around among the flowers.Although it was indeed a good job that time, it was also a mission.The prince suddenly mentioned this...why is it so like the feeling of settling accounts after autumn.

Yan Qi was already thinking in his mind, what exactly did he do that time that he shouldn't have done... How many meals did he secretly eat?Touched the girl's little hand in the Yique Pavilion?Could it be that he once shirked the invitation of a little dandy and stayed in the house to catch up on sleep?

Si Nian looked at Yan Qi without saying a word for a long time, then looked up, and saw that the expression on Yan Qi's face was really rich.So he raised his forehead helplessly, although Yan Qi was not as reliable as the others in his work, but he was the most lively among his subordinates.That's why I thought of sending him to follow Ruohua.

"I will secretly send someone to follow other things this time, and you are in charge of taking Mr. Xiang to the better places in Liunan to see more and keep him safe."

Yan Qi was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect the prince just wanted to say this.So he breathed a sigh of relief, and just when he was about to say that he must have fun with Mr. Xiang, Si Nian spoke again.

"He's a bit greedy. The Jiang Xian over there is really good. If he likes it, take him to eat more. But the money will be deducted from your bill."

"for……"

"Could it be that the part of the money you falsely reported in the past two years was used elsewhere?" Si Nian asked suspiciously.When he found out that Yan Qi falsely reported the use of money, he had investigated it carefully. After all, the 12 people under him had been with him since childhood, and they knew too many things, so there was no room for a trace of betrayal. His mission is still related to the prince. If something goes wrong, even if he protects Yan Qi, there is no guarantee that the prince will not have the heart to get rid of Yan Qi.

However, at the end of the investigation, it was found that this Yan Qi ate a few more Jiang Xian just because of his greedy mouth, which was a bit dumbfounding.Although he is not short of the money, he must teach Yan Qi some lessons, let him know that even if he is far away from the capital, he can find out his every move if he wants to.

"Yes... this subordinate obeys orders." Yan Qi didn't think about it that much, he followed Si Nian since he was a child, and he never thought of betrayal.I just feel sorry for my money...

After Si Nian asked Yan Qi to retire, he wrote another letter and sent it to the Taiwo.

Then he sat on the chair, picked up a pen and wrote the word Ruohua over and over again.Si Nian's handwriting is upright and firm, but when he writes the name of the person in his heart, it looks extra soft.Ruohua was originally supposed to be firm and proud, but Si Nian hoped that this flower and tree, which is better than Xihe, only needs to be kept in the palm of his hand.

The next day, the prince presented several candidates for supervision to the emperor when he was in court.

The emperor has read the list and has no objection.The ministers of the DPRK and China have no big discussions, so the matter is settled like this.

After Xia Dynasty returned to the Ministry of Rites, Ruohua received the edict of appointment and the specific official documents of the duties of this trip.Asked when the palace man who came to deliver the decree needed to leave, the man only said that the emperor had only ordered to leave as soon as possible.

Ruohua looked at Si Nian beside him, then made up his mind and said:

"I will set off this afternoon. This trip will definitely live up to the grace of God."

Si Nian didn't seem to expect that Ruohua would leave so soon, so he hesitated a little.Then he didn't say much, but after the palace man left, he reached out and touched Ruohua's head:

"Go home and let Odan help you pack the clothes and supplies you need to bring. If you leave after lunch, you can go to Chongling in the evening and just have a night's rest."

"En..." Ruohua replied in a low voice, her heart still in a mess.The more careful and gentle Si Nian is, the more reluctant he feels in his heart, although he thinks that he should run away intellectually.

At noon, Sinian and Ruohua had lunch together.The two of them didn't say much, Ruohua kept his head down and pulled the vegetables.

After Si Nian finished speaking, Ruohua also thought a lot in the past two days.He couldn't refuse Si Nian at all, but he didn't know how to accept it.

As far as he is concerned, everything he thought and did in his last life were all the machinations of the world's justice and government, and an emperor should not be affectionate.In this life, at first he wanted to take back the world, but unexpectedly, he gradually felt the love of treating each other and his relatives with sincerity, and even though he wanted to take back the world, he didn't want to take it away.At the moment Chu Ping is still in a state of stability, if it is true that the country is peaceful and the people are safe, he will naturally not insist on provoking disputes.

Perhaps at first he was full of unwillingness and anger, but after all, he was not a person who was greedy for power and power, and it was not what he wanted to be in the big position in the previous life.And after knowing the whole story later, when I think about it seriously, Weiying has long since ceased to exist, and the land of Chuping is still the land of Xia Yuan's descendants.

Although it is no longer Xia's surname, the language, writing, clothing and many measurement units have also continued.Even to Ruohua, this is the feeling of Xia Yuan's descendants.

Especially when they returned to Xiangfu during the Chinese New Year, the moving face could not be ignored.He Zeng Xiao had been thinking for so long about treating his relatives with sincerity and happiness, and now he had obtained it, so how could he willfully abandon all these things.

Since the beginning of concern, Ruohua's mood has probably changed.

As for Ruohua, Si Nian has always been a vaguely defined existence.The two are not related by blood. Although Si Nian takes good care of him, he is not like his elder brother. The two know many secrets, but they don't seem to be close friends.

Those lingering explicit emotions and waiting-like kisses made Ruohua throbbing but uneasy.He wasn't afraid of Si Nian, but he was afraid of why he didn't feel disgusted.

He didn't want to admit that he liked a man, which really insulted the etiquette and righteousness he had always accepted.But those words of refusal that should have been uttered categorically could not be uttered.

In the dream, those old dusts were indifferent and did not see the mountains and rivers, and the iron horses and ice horses never appeared again after tossing and turning, and some always embraced him with a bright moon full of robes.Cool and warm, people can't extricate themselves.

--------

In the afternoon, Odan packed his bags for Ruohua, and even turned his eyes red.I'm afraid that Ruohua will be wronged this trip.

Ruohua smiled and comforted her, saying that she would definitely come back sooner.

Yan Qi packed the carriage again, and after making sure it was safe, she signaled to Si Nian that she was ready and ready to go.

Before leaving, Si Nian just took off his badge and put it in Ruohua's palm:

"If the local officials make things difficult for you, show them this."

Ruohua nodded, held the waist card in his hand, and got into the carriage.

Si Nian watched the carriage gradually go away, his clenched hands gradually hanging down to his sides.Sure enough, the decision is always clear, but I still can't bear to let this person leave...

------

It takes about ten days to travel by horse-drawn carriage from the capital to Liunan area, even if it is fast.

Fortunately, Ruohua is in charge of several scientific inspection inspections, which are all along the road, so you can stay in one place for a few more days, so that the journey will not be too boring.

And Yan Qi dutifully took Ruohua to have fun.

When it was Xia Yuan, Ruohua also went south once.But at that time, there were important things to do, and I didn’t have too much leisure time to enjoy the scenery. I only vaguely remembered that the smoke and clouds passed by the pear blossoms all the way down the south.

This time going south, apart from routine inspections, you don’t have to worry about anything. Even Si Nian and the prince’s people secretly sent people to find clues early on, even when they were supposed to supervise and report fraud and bribery. It is necessary to organize the things that have been found secretly into a document, and hand it in openly.

I have to admit that this kind of feeling of having fun as a young son of a family is really refreshing, no wonder those dudes have no ambitions and are obsessed with beauties and mountains and rivers.At this time, Ruohua felt that being an emperor was indeed not the best thing, but being a son of a rich family was a blessing in life.

Along the way, Ruohua got acquainted with Yan Qi a lot.There is not much difference in age between the two, and Yan Qi has always been good at communicating with people. Although the two of them can't talk about such profound topics as what they want in life, they usually listen to Yan Qi talking about those novel things. Things, but Ruohua is full of interest.

And Ruohua once again felt that these guards under Si Nian were really different.Last time, the somewhat dull Yan Jiu who made people laugh and cry was still fresh in his memory, and this time there was another Yan Qi who falsely reported that he was going to eat Jiang Xian and dared to complain to himself that the prince was stingy.Si Nian's selection and appointment criteria are really... peculiar.

Although the weather has warmed up at the end of March, it is still a bit cool after all.That day Ruohua and Yan Qi went to Mingtai, Yan Qi said with great interest:

"Master Xiang, although this place is not big, it is famous for its medicated baths. Most of the medicated baths in other places put medicinal materials in wooden barrels or baths, but the medicated baths here use hot spring water directly. It is said that There are precious medicinal herbs growing in the spring, and the prepared medicinal herbs will be added to the pool every two hours, which is very good for the body."

Ruohua became interested after hearing Yan Qi's detailed introduction. He had been on the road for the past two days and was a little tired, so he said:

"That night, let's take a medicinal bath together, just in time to finish the Taizhou case that you and I didn't finish talking about yesterday."

When Yan Qi heard Ruohua's words, she couldn't help but tremble... Take a medicinal bath with Mr. Xiang? !If the prince finds out, he will probably kill me...

So Yanqi said:

"My lord, it's not appropriate for me to take a medicinal bath with you..."

"Didn't you say last time that it's normal for friends to take a bath together?" Ruohua asked suspiciously, "Don't you think of me as a friend?"

Yan Qi: "..." Sooner or later, you have to jump into the hole you dug yourself.

Ruohua saw Yan Qi's unspeakable expression, but actually understood a little bit in his heart.Not to mention whether it is common for friends to enter the hot spring together in Chuping, but just because of the difference in status, it is against the rules to enter the same spring together.

The last time I went to the hot spring with Si Nian, it must have been premeditated by that person.Thinking of this, Ruohua couldn't help feeling a little ashamed and angry.That person usually looks dignified and upright, but he always sets himself a trap in private, it's really cunning.

Since Si Nian is not in front of him now, Ruohua looks at the "accomplice" in front of him and wants to return the teased matter to him.So Ruohua pretended to be a little sad and said:

"During the few days we were together, I really treated you heart-to-heart, and I didn't regard you as a servant of the guard, but you never regarded me as a friend, really..."

After speaking, he sighed heavily.

When Yan Qi heard Ruohua say this, she struggled even more.In fact, if he is really an ordinary man, it is not a big deal to take a medicinal bath together, but this man is the one who is at the top of his master's mind. If he dares to exceed the rules... So he gritted his teeth and said:

"My lord, Yan Qi has a disease, it's really... not suitable to show it to others..."

"It's okay, it's common for men to have some scars on their bodies."

"I……"

"Huh? I also have scars on my body, do you want to see them?"

Yan Qi almost cried when he heard this, what happened to Mr. Xiang today, he was obviously very taboo in the past.Seeing Ruohua's look of anticipation and enthusiasm, Yan Qi resolutely said:

"The place where I hurt is really what men care about... Bathing with others can easily cause sadness, so please don't embarrass me..."

"That's it..." Ruohua suppressed a smile, showing sympathy and understanding, "I made a slip of the tongue, don't take it too seriously..."

"En..." Yan Qi also looked like she was about to cry, she said something bad, she had to say this.Fortunately, Yan Wu, who was secretly protecting him, was far away. If he heard it, he would hardly see anyone when he returned to the capital.

Ruohua looked at Yan Qi's expression and was in a good mood.
