Beloved at the Door - v2 Chapter 15.5
Qiu Dan is now very afraid of seeing his wife, and every time she follows Master Di back to the house to listen to the errand, the wife will compete with him whenever she catches the opportunity.
He can’t win. If he wins, his wife will continue to compare with him. What about losing? Even if you lose, your wife will make an inch of it and catch him and continue to force a confession.
This is a headache, you can’t offend Madam, then protest to Master Di, right?
Unexpectedly, Master Di only gave him a word of comfort. “Avoid as far as you can.”
Qiu Dan didn’t give up, suggesting that the adults should tell his wife the truth. When the adults sent him to follow his wife, they found out Dr. Zhao, and knew that she was taking medicine to change her capacity, so the wife would not ask him again.
But Lord Di didn’t agree, and warned him mysteriously. “There are some things that don’t need to be broken. If they are too straightforward, there will be less fun. The officer will leave something unpredictable for the lady to admire. This is called fun.”
Qiu Dan’s face turned green. Is this the selfless adult with iron face? Actually uttered the word “sentiment” from his mouth? What’s more, your taste cannot be based on the pain of humble duty!
Master Di stretched out his hand and patted him on his shoulder, and told him earnestly. “This officer knows that you have worked hard, don’t worry, this officer will not treat you badly.”
Qiu Dan left depressed, and Master Di raised his lips slightly and smiled mysteriously after Qiu Dan left.
The so-called taste is nothing more than an excuse he came up with. No one knows his true mind. The reason why he allowed Yan’er to use the name of a contest to force a confession is to do something for her.
He has just been promoted to the post of governor. In addition to being busy with government affairs, he has to discuss matters with the third division and try prison cases. He cannot keep an eye on his wife all the time.
Yan’er is a person who can’t take time off. She has opinions and ambitions. If she is born as a boy, she will definitely have a big career, but she is a woman and is still his governor’s wife.
If he explicitly forbids her to risk investigating the case, and forbid her to focus too much on business, she will definitely be unhappy.
If it is the person who binds her, her heart will leave sooner or later. He has to tie a rope to her heart. She still can’t be known by her. The only way is to find something to distract her.
When she was distracted, he could feel at ease, so he could only wrong Qiudan.
Di Jing sat back at the desk, looked at the file on the desk, picked up the brush, and paused before writing, thinking that the emperor would also find it interesting when he heard his housework. He deliberately released more information. Qiu Dan went to report to the emperor!
The corners of Junyi’s lips twitched slightly, and Master Di continued to play the role of a diligent loyal monarch.
However, for several days, Qiu Dan was suffering. Every day, he was forced by Shangguan Goose to play the game of cat and mouse. He had to vomit bitterness while reporting to the emperor when he returned to the capital to see if the emperor would be sympathetic. At a glance, the emperor was so happy that he laughed.
“This Shangguan girl is interesting. I like her a lot. No wonder Di Qing begged me to marry her to him. You just avoid that girl and see what other tricks she can do.”
Qiu Dan became even more bored, even the emperor said so, he couldn’t resist the order, so he had to touch his nose and leave the palace.
As one of the four famous arrests, he worked for Lord Di and the emperor. He had no regrets, but he was chased by the governor’s wife all day long, and he couldn’t bear it after a long time.
Qiu Dan sighed, and had to take the hip flask and sit alone on the roof tiles, drinking against the sky to relieve his boredom, and at this time, Yuan Jie also performed light work and jumped up to join in the fun.
“Hey, I know you are here. If you have a good drink without looking for a brother, how can you enjoy it alone!” Without a word, Zhu Yuanjie snatched the flask from Qiu Dan’s hand and poured it into his mouth boldly. With another puff, he spit out the drink.
“What kind of wine is this? Why is it so terrible!”
Qiu Dan immediately snatched the jug back. “It’s terrible, don’t drink it.” After that, he took a few more mouthfuls.
“What’s the matter? See you have something on your mind?” Ao Yuanjie sat cross-legged next to him and asked concerned.
“It’s okay.” Qiu Dan continued to drink boring wine.
