Survival countdown

Huainan Xuzhou Water Transport Terminal.

Surabaya, which crosses the major water arteries of Jingdong, Jianghuai and Yuhang, and Bianshui, a golden waterway flowing through many provinces and Kyoto, intersects in the Xuzhou river, and flows into the tributaries of the Yellow River due to the diversion of the Yellow River. The three waterways intersect in Xuzhou, making Xuzhou an even more important transportation hub.

The Yellow River diverted its course and flooded Xuzhou. From July to mid-August, the whole of Xuzhou was like a country of water. By mid-September, the tide had already ebbed. By early October, the flood had completely receded, exposing the devastated land.

There are still a small number of refugees going south, and most of them stayed. With the help of the court and the government, they were preparing to rebuild their homes. Because Xuzhou, Pizhou and Surabaya were the main disaster-stricken areas, more than half of the 400 million taels of disaster relief funds allocated were sent to Xuzhou and Pizhou and so on.

Surabaya is in Jingdong, and there is another disaster relief fund allocated, which does not intersect with the disaster relief fund in Huainan.

At this time, an official ship was moving slowly on the water surface, the night was shrouded, the river was vast, the torches on the ship were bright, and there were officers and soldiers patrolling the bow.The tax case department of the household department stepped out of the cabin and could already see a little light on the pier, so he ordered the guards to hang the flag representing the identity on the bow.

As soon as the guard took out the flag with his front foot, he caught a glimpse of a black shadow flashing across the river with his back foot. He was startled, and hurriedly sounded a warning, but the next moment his throat was cold, and his eyes were filled with blood and jumping fire.

The blood splashed on the face of the Department of Taxation of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and he immediately drew out his long sword and slashed down: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Come out to meet the enemy—" He asked the masked black man who crawled out of the water and into the official ship. The man in clothes: "Who are you? But water bandits here? Do you know that this is an official disaster relief ship sent by the imperial court?"

The officers and soldiers rushed out to meet the enemy. The black-clothed bandits were all Lianjiazi. The officers and soldiers were not opponents at all, and more than half of them were quickly eliminated.

The gangster in black at the head sneered at the words: "Official ship? It was the official ship of the imperial court that was robbed! It was you dog officials who were killed!"

The Department of Taxation of the Ministry of Household Affairs was startled, and quickly said: "This is the official ship that escorts the relief food. If it is robbed, tens of millions of victims in Huainan will starve and freeze, and starve for thousands of miles!"

"When the disaster relief food arrives in Huainan, it will only go into the pockets of corrupt officials and wealthy businessmen. When will it be given to the victims? Whether the relief food will be given or not, the victims will starve to death! It's better for my Yujiazhai to be a green forest hero and save the vast number of victims in Huainan!" "

Yujiazhai? !

The tax case division of the Ministry of Households was covered in scars, and he still resisted with difficulty: "I advise you to think twice and stop the loss in time. If you stop now, I can let the past go, but if you insist on going your own way, the imperial court will never let you go! All of you have eighteen kinds of martial arts, you can hide your name, but you can't compete with thousands of troops of the imperial court! The soldiers and horses of the prefect of Xuzhou are on the way to meet them, and your evil deeds of looting will soon be discovered. When the soldiers and horses are dispatched, Turn upside down all 72 prefectures in one province and [-] surrounding villages, and let your fishermen's villages bleed like rivers, and it will be too late to regret it!"

"You corrupt officials don't need to worry about it!"

The man in black pierced the heart of the tax case department of the household department with a sword, and an accomplice came up behind him and said, "I found the silver!"

"Move away." After saying that, the man in black drew back his sword and kicked the tax case department of the household department into the water.

At the same time, torches were lit on the pier on the river bank, and the sound of orderly and loud footsteps approached from far to near. A man in black said, "Boss, the Xuzhou battalion soldiers are here!"

"Walk."

Before leaving, he set a fire on the boat, and the flames burst into the sky in an instant.

The officers and soldiers on the river bank immediately swam to put out the fire, and only brought back the burnt keel of the official ship and a group of corpses. At this moment, an officer and soldier suddenly shouted: "My lord, there is one alive here!"

He Guangyou, the prefect of Xuzhou, hurriedly got off his horse and ran over. He saw that the man's wounds were covered with blisters and his face was like gold paper.

The Department of Taxation of the Ministry of Households, who was left breathless, struggled and grabbed the hem of He Guangyou's official uniform and said intermittently: "200 million... disaster relief money was taken, robbed..."

"—" He Guangyou gasped, and quickly squatted down and asked, "Who stole the relief money?"

"Yu, Fisherman's Village——"

"Yujiazhai? Are you sure it is Yujiazhai? They robbed all 200 million taels of disaster relief money? Is there any other way to deliver the relief money? Who are you? You—" He Guangyou asked repeatedly, and found that the person's eyes were wide open Staring at the sky, already out of breath.

Xuzhou Tongjuan said with a heavy expression: "200 million disaster relief money was lost in Xuzhou's borders, and you and I cannot escape accountability."

He Guangyou was in a hurry, flustered: "I don't know? But who stole the 200 million disaster relief money? What do you want to use the 200 million disaster relief money for?"

Xuzhou Tongju: "He said... Yujiazhai robbed the relief money?"

He Guangyou: "Others don't know where the Fisherman's Village is, but you and I don't? They have been stationed in the surrounding mountains and rivers for generations, earning their living by fishing and selling fish. Are they capable of such audacious things as robbing officials?"

Xuzhou Tongjuan: "I heard that Yujiazhai has taken in a lot of Jianghu people in the past two years. They come and go frequently, and the composition is complicated. It is hard to guarantee that some desperadoes will not be hidden."

He Guangyou: "There are two to 3000 people in Yujiazhai, men, women, old and young. They have lived and worked in peace and contentment for generations. We can't conclude that they did it based on this, and we can't just say that they harbor criminals."

Sighing heavily, the depression in his chest could not be expressed. He Guangyou felt that it was difficult: "First report to the commander-in-chief, and then report to the court. Before this, all the counties under the jurisdiction of Xuzhou were dispatched, and the focus was on whether there were strange faces or people from the rivers and lakes gathered. The city walls, inside and outside the prefecture must strictly check the pedestrians passing by, and be sure to pay attention to people with large luggage."

Turning back on his horse, He Guangyou heaved and sighed, "200 million disaster relief silver! It happened to be lost in Xuzhou, and I can't explain it to His Majesty and the imperial court, not to mention the local disaster victims! Disaster relief is urgent. Curry’s tax bank is basically used up, and it won’t last long, so we still have to borrow some money from surrounding provinces and prefectures as soon as possible.”

Xuzhou Tongju agreed with He Guangyou: "Save the people from the fire and water, first rescue the emergency, and then find a way to get back the relief money. I guess the higher-ups will forgive you for a while. We will talk about the future, and we will talk about the resettlement of the victims first."

He Guangyou nodded, and subconsciously stroked the official hat lightly, probably not long after wearing it.

Following the moonlight, the two rode back to the Xuzhou government office.

***

Among the reeds on the river bank, a man and a woman held their breaths and watched the whole process of the men in black robbing and killing the official ship. They left quietly before the arrival of the Xuzhou battalion, and finally stopped to catch their breath after running for dozens of miles.

"Sure enough, someone robbed and killed the relief money, but it's a pity that we came a step too late." The woman was quite annoyed, and beat her palm and said, "Have you seen the face of the water bandit who is the leader?"

The man's face was terrified, and he nodded his head when he heard the words: "Sun Yingyi, the counselor of the Huainan Commander!"

The woman pondered for a moment: "Write a note and send it to the Xuzhou government office to remind He Guangyou."

The man did not suggest: "We don't know whether He Guangyou is an enemy or a friend. What if he and An Huaide are in the same party? Will they kill us in turn to silence us? We should discuss it with third uncle and let him decide."

The woman thought for a while and said, "Then let's go back to Yujiazhai now."

***

The report that the official bank was robbed soon arrived at Shuaisi. Shuaishi An Huaide said to the left and right staff and a group of officials: "Although the accident happened in the boundary of Xuzhou, it can be regarded as an accident in my jurisdiction. It is my duty to seek officials and bankrupts, and to kill criminals."

He pushed the report to the left and right staff and said: "The tax case department of the household department responsible for escorting the relief money said before his death that the gangsters who robbed the official money were Yujiazhai. According to the spies' report, although Yujiazhai has been fishing for generations, But two or three years ago, a group of Jianghu people frequently came and went, and they often gathered to discuss current affairs, so there is a high possibility of rebellion against the party."

Staff Officer Zuo suggested: "It is better to send troops to encircle Yujiazhai and search the surrounding 36 waterways and 72 villages. If it is really the actions of the gang of rebels, we can take them down with one blow!"

The right staff officer even suggested: "Shuaisi's actions should not be publicized, and the battalion soldiers should sneak into the 72 village quietly. Don't startle the snake, let alone inform the prefect of Xuzhou. I read his report, and every word and every word has the meaning of a fisherman's village excuse. It is difficult to guarantee congratulations to Guangyou There is no connection with Yujiazhai."

Other officials echoed and offered their own opinions.

The appeasement division is also known as the commander-in-chief. Although he is in charge of military power, An Huaide is not a general. He is just sitting in the middle hall. He is about 45 or [-] years old.

His expression is not angry but majestic, his eyes seem to be able to penetrate other people's minds with just a glance, which is especially sharp and terrifying.

Seeing that he did not speak, all the officials were a little apprehensive: "Commander, what do you think?"

"En." An Huaide put his hands on his knees, closed his eyes and said calmly: "Your suggestions are all good." After a short pause, he asked: "Should the report from Xuzhou be submitted to the capital?"

Left staff officer: "According to the route, it's time to arrive."

An Huaide: "A while ago Zhang Conglu died at the Xuzhou post station, and now another 200 million taels of disaster relief money will disappear in Xuzhou. It seems that Xuzhou has a bad feng shui."

Staff officer on the right: "The two incidents happened too close together, I'm afraid His Majesty may misunderstand you."

An Huaide laughed twice, with a calm and gentle tone: "Every man is not guilty, but he is guilty. I have been an official for [-] years, and I understand this truth better than anyone else. What's more, as the commander-in-chief of Huainan, I govern a province and fourteen prefectures The government's military affairs and security, anything that happens in this territory is the responsibility of the envoy, and there is absolutely no reason to stand by and watch."

"Your Majesty's kindness to the old minister is as great as a mountain, and the old minister is duty-bound to share the worries of the king. Therefore, whether it is the burning of the supervisory censor or the robbery of disaster relief money, the old man must take care of it. Even if your majesty blames me and wants to take off the hat on my head, that is the same. Of course. I dereliction of duty first, and I am willing to accept any punishment."

All the officials admired after hearing the words: "An Shuai envoy eats the king's salary, and the matter of loyalty to the king is really a loyal minister and good minister. We are ashamed of ourselves."

At this time, Sun Chengyi, the counselor of the Appeasement Division, passed the lobby, looked inside, looked at the open-eyed superior An Huaide, and nodded imperceptibly.

An Huaide closed his eyes again, and said calmly: "Before the arrival of the envoy, I went to Xuzhou to deal with the robbery of the disaster relief money in person. I hope I can make up for it."

After a pause for a few seconds, An Huaide said pointedly: "The fisherman's village is the most suspicious, so just as the staff officer said, surround them and interrogate them one by one. If anyone resists with weapons, it will undoubtedly be a rebellion."

***

Three days later, Yujiazhai.

The sky is slightly bright, the sun breaks through the clouds and falls on the ground, the mountains are shrouded in thin mist, the lake is shining golden, a large area of ​​farmland has been opened up among the continuous mountains, and above the farmland are scattered wooden houses, which are full of fireworks The village is now devastated and desolate.The simple wooden gate collapsed on one side, and the word "Yujiazhai" was split, leaving deep knife marks, and there were fallen farm tools and blood beside it.

With the sound of 'rumbling' and the sound of horseshoes, it seems that thousands of troops and horses are coming, and the smoke and dust are billowing. A row of cavalry in heavy armor, from men to horses, came in the morning light, stepped into the devastated fishermen's village, and went deep into the hinterland. The marks of the knife and the ax are carved, but the corpse is not seen.

Suddenly there was a scream not far away, and the leader of the heavy armored cavalry leaped over the fallen barrier. When the horse was galloping, he quickly turned over and dismounted, and stepped forward in two or three steps. The strong man who was trying to do evil on his body raised his foot and kicked heavily at the strong man's chest, causing the sternum to sink in instantly, killing him on the spot.

Looking back at the road behind the cavalry, there are footprints about two or three centimeters indented where they walked, which shows that the foot strength is terrifying.

The woman looked at them in horror, curled up with her arms folded, there was darkness above her head, she grabbed it subconsciously, the soft touch in her hand told her it was a piece of cloth, and then heard a deep and cold voice: "Are you a survivor of Yujiazhai?"

"No, no, I'm not... I am, I'm a member of the Salt Gang. I came here to collect last month's salt bill. I didn't expect the government to come to Yujiazhai to suppress the rebels. At that time, the two sides fought, I was afraid of being implicated, so I looked for a place to hide, and I came out at dawn, but I ran into the bandits who came to pick up the leaks and was almost killed—thanks to my lord for saving me. It really belongs to the Qingshan Salt Gang in Xuzhou, and we also have a document from the local Salt and Iron Division agreeing to dig a salt well—”

"Is the Yujiazhai surrounded and suppressed by the prefect of Xuzhou in the name of rebellious party?"

Sanniang hesitated: "I was hiding at the time, and I didn't see anyone, but I heard the officers and soldiers call the leader 'Sun Shenyi', and heard them mention 'disaster relief bank' and 'An Shuaisi'?"

"Are there any survivors in Yujiazhai?"

"About eight or nine people were killed, and the rest of the fishermen were sent to prisons, where they were charged with harboring criminals and colluding with a rebellious party."

"Let's go. Don't say you've seen us when you get out."

"Sanniang understands." She can't even say that she has been to Yujiazhai, who dares to associate with the rebellious party now?

Taking a few steps forward hesitantly, Sanniang turned her head and saw the dozen or so heavy armored cavalry standing in place, their majestic figures complemented the tall horses beside them. Don't be angry and prestige, it's heart-shattering.

Sanniang didn't dare to stay for long, so she left quickly.

"General, we came a little late. Yujiazhai is still being used as a scapegoat. The witnesses and evidences on the side of the appeasement envoy are probably ready, and we will wait for the three courts to try and make a final decision. The case of Zhang Conglu and the robbery of 200 million disaster silver I'm afraid it's over."

He untied the hooded lock that was connected to the helmet to cover his face, revealing Huo Jingtang's handsome face: "The fishermen must be saved, the case must be investigated, and the relief money must also be found."

The heavy cavalry scattered command: "But now we only know that Zhang Conglu died in the hands of An Huaide, and we don't know where the relief money is, and there is no evidence that An Huaide was greedy for the Mohe River money. We are completely at a loss and have nowhere to start." , let alone save the fishermen.”

Huo Jingtang got on his horse: "Stay in Xuzhou to investigate secretly."

"Yes!" Commander San turned around, put his finger on his lips and screamed.

More than a dozen heavy cavalry disbanded in place, disappeared into the mountains, and even the traces of their presence were wiped clean.

Ouchi, Kyoto, Longting Lake.

Emperor Yuanshou was fishing, and King Kang was standing next to him. After a while, a big eunuch hurried over and whispered that the eunuch, who was next to the queen, had brought sweet soup and was waiting outside.

Emperor Yuanshou: "Bring it in, just say that I suddenly want to eat the roast duck made by the people around the queen, and go there at night."

The eunuch took the order to answer, and soon brought back the sweet soup, and Emperor Yuanshou took it directly.

Kang Wang persuaded: "Your Majesty, the soup is hot, it's better to let it cool."

Emperor Yuanshou: "I think it can cool my heart after drinking it."

There is something beyond the words, but it is about the empress, Kang Wang dare not answer the words casually.

Emperor Yuanshou finished drinking the sweet soup, stared at the fishing rod, and said, "The queen is here to test me, to see my attitude towards the disappearance of the disaster relief money."

King Kang: "The prince really dares to touch the relief money?"

Emperor Yuanshou: "He is not so confused."

King Kang: "The Fifth Prince?"

Emperor Yuanshou: "Although the old fifth is domineering and has no heart of benevolence, he listens to the prince."

King Kang frowned: "It's not the prince or the fifth prince. Could it be that it's a rebellious party? But I've never heard of a rebellious party in Xuzhou who dared to rob officials and bankers—the report sent back by An Huaide said that a rebellious party killed officers and soldiers with weapons. Afterwards, they were exterminated and killed, and those who harbored the rebellious party were also arrested and imprisoned, but the whereabouts of the disaster relief money have not yet been interrogated."

Emperor Yuanshou: "It's still too late."

"Your Majesty has long anticipated An Huaide's actions?"

"He Guangyou, the magistrate of Xuzhou, mentioned Yujiazhai in his report. I expected that it would be used as a scapegoat, and at the same time solve the two incidents of Zhang Conglu and the relief money being robbed, so I ordered Ziyu to take fifteen Tanghe cavalry to Xuzhou Yujiazhai. I got the news later than An Huaide, and the summons come and go, so delays are expected."

Emperor Yuanshou got up and walked forward with his hands behind his back: "Fortunately, An Huaide didn't dare to massacre thousands of people in a village. He would only pick out a few people to be gangsters and kill them on the spot, leaving them dead without evidence and unable to speak." Crying for injustice. The other fishermen were accused of 'harboring' and had to wait for three trials, but the charges were all laid out, and thousands of people could not speak."

Kang Wang was shocked: "Is An Huaide really lawless?"

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. The robbery of the disaster relief money was not the work of the prince and the fifth prince. An Huaide belonged to the prince, so he did not rob the disaster relief money.

Did An Huaide use the disaster relief money to be robbed, and blame Zhang Conglu for being burned to death on the head of the rebellious party?

So who did the disaster relief money get robbed?

King Kang couldn't understand it, but he heard Emperor Yuanshou say: "The disaster relief money was robbed just because the poor dagger saw it."

"what?"

Emperor Yuanshou waved his hand: "Wait for me to send a handbook to order Ziyu to stay in Huainan to investigate and find out. If you can't find out, just stay there and don't come back. It will save you from being idle all day long and being an eyesore."

Kang Wang: "..."

***

East Palace.

The prince took off his official hat and threw it on the table, asking, "Did you touch the relief money?"

The fifth prince: "I don't! How dare I be on the cusp of the storm? If I really touch the relief money, even the princes and grandchildren, the father will definitely take my head off!"

Seeing him sincerely, the prince asked, "Is it really you?"

The fifth prince felt that he was wronged: "I won't be so shameless! I know that when the relief money was robbed, there was a layer of cold sweat on the back. Damn, who is brave enough to touch the relief money? He is with the whole The court is against you!"

Prince: "No matter what, let An Huaide handle this matter well. We must find the 200 million disaster relief silver. As long as we find the disaster relief silver first, the initiative is in our hands."

Fifth Prince: "I understand."

***

Yishan Temple outside Pengcheng, Xuzhou.

Huo Jingtang opened the letter from Jiangyang County. In the letter, he briefly stated that the epidemic situation in Jiangyang County had been basically brought under control. Fortunately, the gods blessed him with no infection and good health.

The second letter did not write about lovesickness, but it talked about lovesickness throughout. Zhao Baiyu recounted every meal he ate in Jiangyang County, talked about the special five-spice cake there, and said, "It is good for you to strengthen the spleen and nourish the stomach."Come to the store three times a day to chat with him, and the store will give generous cakes at the end.

He said that he wanted to try his best, but he almost burned the kitchen and was kicked out by Yan Bing. He felt that he had no cooking talent, so he couldn't wash his hands and make soup for Mr. Wang.

Others were fighting the fire, Zhao Baiyu was watching in the courtyard, and felt that the moonlight was like water, and suddenly wanted to write poems, but unfortunately he was poor and short of breath, and had no talent for poetry, "I just look at the mountains and waters, turn a thousand times, and I still write poems for you mood, they will not feel lonely'.

A straight ball hit Huo Jingtang's heart, and after reading this sentence over and over again, he moved his index finger until it was stained with ink, and muttered to himself: "Xiao Lang is so talented, how can he have a shortcoming that he can't write poetry? The Huainan incident Once finished, I asked the great Confucian to teach Xiao Lang how to compose poems."

At the end of the letter, mentioning the twining flowers and vines, just saying "Keep it in your heart, cherish it", is enough for Huo Jingtang to sit by the window and laugh endlessly at the flowers and plants in the courtyard.

Commander San, who had just returned from outside investigations after changing into civilian clothes, saw this from a distance, and said to others, "The general is in a good mood?"

Colleague: "Master Xiao Zhao has a letter. The general read one letter early in the morning. He played guns in the court. After finishing a whole set of moves, he picked up the second letter and read it. This is what he looks like now. It’s like being possessed by a ghost and a ghost.” Pushing the commander away, he said, “Hey, if you have something to say now, even if there is a big mistake, the general will not lose his temper.”

Commander San shook his head: "It's a pity that the news I brought was neither good nor bad, and I wasted a great opportunity."

After saying that, he walked towards Huo Jingtang, and at this time Huo Jingtang had already picked up the third letter to read.

Commander San stepped forward quietly and stood quietly behind Huo Jingtang, thinking to report later, when suddenly he heard the general ask: "What's the matter?"

My heart couldn't help but thump, it sounded like it was frozen, was it an illusion?Didn't you just read Mr. Zhao's letter, and you're in a good mood?

"The whereabouts of the relief money have been found."

"where?"

"...in Yangzhou Jichang Villa."

Huo Jingtang suddenly turned his head: "Did you check?"

"Two horses ran to death under the bid, and he worked without sleep for three days. He used all his contacts in the world to track down the whereabouts of the relief money. There is absolutely no possibility of mistakes!"

Huo Jingtang raised his hand to cover the window frame, his eyes fell on the lush vegetation outside the window, his face was expressionless, only a thin layer of killing intent was condensed.

"Send someone to watch?"

"There are people watching the whole process. The security inside is heavily guarded, and the guards seem to be from the imperial army. The matter is of great importance, and the subordinates dare not act rashly!"

"En." Huo Jingtang: "Go down."

Commander San boldly proposed: "General, take action now, quickly control Jichang Villa, and get back the relief money, so that we can break An Huaide's plan to get rid of Zhang Conglu's death, and rescue the fishermen who are imprisoned. If this matter is found out by other people first, and the disaster relief money falls into the hands of others and used to make a big fuss, it may implicate you, General—"

"Go down!"

He suddenly yelled at him, so startled that the commander shuddered twice, and hurriedly left the room. He didn't dare to look up until he exited the yard, and his colleagues quietly came over to ask what was going on.

After listening to the description, the colleague couldn't help being surprised: "The general is not in a good mood? It's because the relief money is being sent to the Changshan Villa... But what does this have to do with the general? How do you say it will implicate the general?"

Commander San wiped his forehead with cold sweat and said: "Jichang Villa was in the seventh year of Yuanfeng, and the first emperor bestowed it on the then eighth prince, Prince Jing."

"!" The colleague gasped and lowered his voice: "The robbery of the relief money is related to King Jing...wouldn't that implicate the general?" Then he thought: "But the relationship between the general and Prince Jing is not good, father and son get along like enemies , How can you be so angry because of this? I heard the general scolding me outside, since the general started to worship Buddha, I seldom get so angry."

"Father and son after all, blood is thicker than water. If it really has something to do with Prince Jing, wouldn't it put the general to death?" Commander San also felt chilling: "It's unfilial to kill relatives righteously, and it's disloyal to cover up. The situation is in a dilemma."

The two looked at the courtyard at the same time, deeply sighing.

However, at this time, Huo Jingtang was not angry with King Jing, the old man and his little father-son relationship had been exhausted in the endless assassinations, what he was really angry with was Zhao Baiyu's third letter.

Zhao Baiyu mentioned the matter of Li Yiru and Xu Mingbi in his letter. Although he didn't say it clearly, it can be seen that his attitude was that he disapproved of Li Yiru's gift of the wishful hairpin representing the token of the marriage contract. He also said that Li Yiru was an independent person and should not take She came as a tool to persuade Xu Mingbi to leave the mountain.

Of course, the words were not as sharp as Huo Jingtang's interpretation, but the reality was gentle and cryptic. He even understood that Huo Jingtang was helping him in an emergency, so he borrowed Li Yiru to ask Xu Mingbi to come out of the mountain.

But Huo Jingtang was still not happy.

Fiddled with the Buddha beads to try to calm the irritable heart. It was very useful in the past, but now it doesn't work. The more you fiddle with it, the more chaotic it becomes. Huo Jingtang can't help but wonder why Zhao Baiyu wrote a letter specially for Li Yiru?

There were only three letters in total, and only one of them was full of lovesickness, and the third was full of papers and words from others.

How does he feel about Li Yiru?

Huo Jingtang was not a person who would get sulky, so he wrote back immediately with just one line:

"Xiao Lang blames me?"

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Lao Huo: Angry.

It will be coaxed soon, making troubles and conflicts is the fun of the boudoir.
