Facing Zheng Ping's probing eyes, Guo Jia said without hesitation:

"A gentleman does not take what others like, let alone gifts from others. Although I don't know which high-ranking official and scholar this wine is from, I can know its solemnity."

After finishing speaking, he changed the subject and smiled slightly: "Of course, if you are a gentleman who is generous and willing to give Jia fine wine, Jia will also have the audacity to accept it."

Zheng Ping didn't spend too long with Guo Jia, but he had a preliminary understanding of Guo Jijiu, who was turned into a beautiful standing painting by various games in later generations.

Compared with the manners of a gentleman at the end of the Han Dynasty, he is unconventional and open-minded, and he is closer to the demeanor of the Wei and Jin Dynasties that suddenly emerged decades later.

At the same time, with Mi Heng's literary talent and wildness, if he doesn't like to attack others indiscriminately with his tongue, he is somewhat similar to those celebrities who indulged in indulgence in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

They are all out of tune with the mainstream of this era, but they are exactly like the style of soldiers in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

This is probably the reason why Guo Jia has a little kindness towards Mi Heng even though he is not at odds with Mi Heng.

As far as Zheng Ping is concerned, he was used to seeing romantic celebrities in the Wei and Jin Dynasties in his previous life, and he was even more used to getting along with people with Guo Jia's temperament. He had an initial favorable impression of Guo Jia's character above the passing line.

That's why when he found Guo Jia sitting in the opposite yard drinking, he sent Tan Chuo away with a few words, instead of rushing into the house, he came over to say hello first.

Both Guo Jia and Zheng Ping could sense each other's attitude, so the conversation was very casual, without any hypocritical greetings, almost to the point of speaking freely.

But in the eyes of the guards who didn't know, the two bickered back and forth, every sentence was aimed at each other, and they were not polite, as if there was a deep festival.

So, when Guo Jia teased Zheng Ping with teasing words again, the two hulking guards remembered Kong Rong's instruction of "don't let Miheng be bullied" and stared at Guo Jia aggressively.

Even Guo Jia, who is as open-minded as Guo Jia, can't pretend not to be invisible under the care of the death gaze of "Second General Hum Ha".

If Guo Jia has accepted modern culture, he can probably find an emoji to express his feelings at the moment:

A thin little yellow duck stood in front of two huge muscular ducks, and the huge muscular duck picked up its small body and wrote a line of words: Little brother, what's the matter with you?

[Weak, pitiful, and helpless.jpg].

Guo Jia suppressed the strange feeling in his heart, and entered the topic as if nothing had happened: "Jia came here not only on a whim, but also because I was entrusted by someone to give you something."

Entrusted to deliver something?

Zheng Ping searched in his mind, but he really couldn't figure out who would borrow Guo Jia's hand to give him something.

Needless to say, Kong Rong would not use his hands if he wanted to send something to him.

And the others... To put it bluntly, with Mi Heng's terrible popularity, it would be good if he didn't get caught in trouble. Why would someone come to give something, or ask Guo Jia to do it.

Unless, the other party had the same ulterior motives as Tan Chuo.

But people with ulterior motives cannot persuade Guo Jia.

Zheng Ping and Guo Jia explained.However, after Guo Jia let go of the news, he didn't say anything else, and he didn't take out the so-called "transfer on behalf of him".

The two stood relatively silent for a while, Zheng Ping spread his hands: "Bring it."

Guo Jia couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "Don't you ask who entrusted me?"

"Seeing 'quickly ask me' written in your eyes, I suddenly don't want to know."

Without saying a word, Guo Jia took out something from his bosom, which was a delicate small pot made of blue pottery.

Zheng Ping took the small pottery pot through the wooden lattice, took out the sealed top cover and white silk, and sniffed lightly near the pot mouth.

A fresh medicinal fragrance hits the nostrils.

He tapped a little with his fingertips, twisting his fingers together, feeling the texture and touch.

After a while, Zheng Ping said firmly: "An ointment for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis."

Guo Jia smiled and said nothing.

Zheng Ping continued: "This medicine has a delicate texture, and the container is exquisite, and it is not available to ordinary people."

He put the medicine jar into his sleeve: "Thank you."

"Thank me or the person who gave the medicine?"

"Both."

Thanks to the person who donated the medicine, and of course to Guo Jia who made a special trip.

Seeing the seriousness in his eyes, Guo Jia was not used to it for a while.

Probably because of Mi Heng's misdeeds like thunder, this solemnity is even rarer than that of Lantian Meiyu, which makes people feel a bit unbearable.

"I will convey this sentence for you." Guo Jia withdrew his hand and smoothed the cuff that was folded due to the action of fetching the object, "Take care."

"It's the same with you."

Since then, there is no other words, and they parted ways.

Zheng Ping returned to the old house with his guards and attendants, and arranged the house.

The guards and attendants obeyed his instructions and tied the hemp rope to the corresponding position.

Although the guards and others didn't understand what it meant, no one asked much.

Zheng Ping was deeply satisfied with the professionalism of Kong Rong's family servants, and instructed them to move the layout.

After finishing all this, he set off to go to the county government office.

The county captain was working in the hall, and when he heard the news that "Mi Heng" had come to the county government again, he shook his hand holding the brush and painted a thick black cake on the bamboo slips.

The county lieutenant's complexion changed back and forth, and when Zheng Ping was ushered into the hall by the guards, he had packed up all his expressions and stood up with a smile on his face.

"Your servant, what brought you here?"

Seeing the angry-eyed "Second General Humha" standing behind Zheng Ping, the county lieutenant's polite smile froze a bit, "Your officer, this is...?"

"This is my guard, commonly known as 'thug'."

The concepts of thugs and guards are not exactly the same.

When the county lieutenant heard that Zheng Ping actually used "thugs" to refer to these two rather fierce-looking guards, he couldn't help feeling a chill down his back.

Beater?Who are you going to hit?

Could it be that Mi Heng... discovered his perfunctory behavior at the beginning yesterday, decided that he did nothing, and specially hired thugs to beat him?

If it was someone else who came today, the county lieutenant would definitely not think so—the county government office is the place where the government is held, and there are many guards guarding it, who would dare to make a mistake?

But since the person who came was "Mi Heng", it is naturally a different matter.

This man is reckless, bold, and even dares to challenge the authority of Sikong Cao Cao, so why be afraid of him, a small county magistrate?

Due to the vicious name of the visitor, the county lieutenant immediately persuaded after Zheng Ping's explanation, and further slowed down his voice: "Your officer, this... It will take time for you to handle the case. You just came to record the case yesterday, and we will wait for you." I have tried my best to investigate for you, but for a while... Really, I am powerless."

Zheng Ping saw that the county captain was soft-spoken and earnest, and it was autumn, but his forehead was sweating profusely, he couldn't help but find it funny.

But he didn't deliberately clarify the other party's misunderstanding, he just didn't speak, and looked at the other party silently.

Seeing his silence, the county lieutenant trembled in his heart. He cautiously apologized and said with a smile: "If you have other needs, I will try my best to meet them. It's just that the investigation does take some time..."

Zheng Ping said: "Traitors are cunning, it's reasonable that you couldn't find a clue in just one day."

Hearing Zheng Ping's "understanding" words, the county lieutenant was both surprised and delighted.

However, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard Zheng Ping make a sharp turn.

"It's just that if you look for it like looking for a needle in a haystack, not only will it be useless, but you will also be easily deceived by thieves and return without success."

After all, he is a low-level county magistrate with long sleeves and good at dancing for many years. The county lieutenant knew that Zheng Ping wanted to make trouble when he heard this. He was about to say haha ​​and blocked what Zheng Ping said next. Look, it turns out that the "Second General Hum Ha" is sending love attention to him.

With such a blink of an eye delay, Zheng Ping has successfully stated his appeal: "I have a way to help the county captain solve the case as soon as possible and successfully capture the criminal."

After finishing speaking, he whispered his plan in detail.

The county lieutenant's eyebrows trembled when he heard this: "How can you make up such a nonsense? Isn't it an act of deceiving the people?"

Because he was too surprised and resisted, he raised his voice unknowingly, and was glared at by the tiger with four copper bells again.

But Zheng Ping's proposal involved public office, and he didn't dare to take risks, let alone make fun of his official seal. No matter how frightened he was, he couldn't care less about other things, and firmly refused, "No. This is absolutely not possible."

"If the county lieutenant doesn't adopt Heng's method, when will the thief be arrested and brought to justice?"

"Naturally soon..."

Facing Zheng Ping with a smile that was not a smile, with a hint of madness in his eyes, the county captain silently swallowed the rest of the words, and said vaguely, "We still need to think about it in the long run."

Feeling that the time is almost up, Zheng Ping slowed down his tone again: "The county captain doesn't need to worry, Heng has no intention of embarrassing, what I said just now is just a small suggestion."

Ignoring the county lieutenant's expression of wanting to complain but not daring, he smiled and said, "If the county lieutenant is concerned, why don't you ask Sikong?"

The county lieutenant looked at Zheng Ping again in amazement, and seemed to say in his eyes: You offended Cao Cao so hard, how could you have the courage to make such a suggestion and ask him to ask Cao Cao for adjudication?

Zheng Ping didn't intend to explain anything, so he concluded calmly: "I'll reply after the county lieutenant asks Sikong for instructions. Today Heng will leave first, and I'll come back to bother you tomorrow."

With the county lieutenant's face full of "I knew it would be like this", Zheng Ping left the county office with two "thugs" and went to the school dormitory.

He remembered that on the first day of crossing, Tan Chuo had mentioned this place.Out of some speculation, he talked with Kong Rong yesterday, and learned that although Mi Heng was not called to any official residence, he took a job of "assisting in copying books" in the school dormitory.

According to modern examples, it is similar to the fact that college graduates can't find a suitable job for the time being, so they just find a part-time job in a training institution to make ends meet...

Although Ni Heng is arrogant and reckless, he is not a person who has no sense of responsibility and is lazy at work.

Since Zheng Ping knew that he had accepted such a job, he couldn't pick someone at will and leave without discussing the handover with the school.

So he was free today, he dealt with the important matters first, and then rushed to the dormitory to find the "doctor" Tan Chuo called.

A quarter of an hour later, as soon as Zheng Ping stepped into the dormitory, he received several faint glances.

Without exception, all sights have one thing in common: hostility.

Zheng Ping felt as if he had returned to the holographic online game, pulling all the monsters by himself.

The number one face of the Three Kingdoms really deserves its reputation.
