The Prematurely Deceased Fiance Dressed As a Heroine - Chapter 50
Compared with the original Shuangxi Town, Jiangzhou City is obviously still affected by the flood. Not to mention the faint traces of flooding on the buildings on both sides of the street, but the atmosphere in the city is a bit more tense than before, and there are few pedestrians on the streets. The few open shops were deserted, except that the shopkeeper was drowsy at the counter, and there were no customers.
Of course, no matter how depressed Jiangzhou City is, it is much better than the gathering of refugees outside the city.
Wen Fei walked around the street seemingly aimlessly, and noticed that apart from a few normal pedestrians, there were always a few hidden figures in the streets and lanes. They wore commoner clothes to hold the baggage, looking a little embarrassed, but not like the sloppy and impoverished beggars.
At a glance, Wen Fei guessed that these people should be the refugees who came in from the tower. They may have a small amount of money to buy the guard of the tower and find a way out for themselves. But it was not considered rich enough. The money he brought only bought the qualifications to enter the city. When he really entered the city, he didn’t even have the money to stay in, and he was directly on the streets.
Wen Fei didn’t have any thoughts about the matter itself, but it was a loophole in the rules. Such people are indispensable in all generations. But at this time, allowing these people to move around in the city is actually a risk.
Keeping this matter in mind for the time being, Wen Fei didn’t do anything immediately.
She observed all the way, following the path said by the porter, walking in the direction of the government office unhurriedly. The distance was not too far, it was only one street away, and it was a quarter of an hour slower.
Jiangzhou was originally considered a place of wealth, so the government office was located above the open dark gate in the center of the city. A servant in a soap coat. However, Xu has been fine for a long time, and perhaps there are not many people on the street. These government servants are also listless and look very lazy while guarding the gate.
It wasn’t until Wen Fei stepped onto the stone steps in front of the palace that a servant came forward and stopped her and said, “The palace is heavy, the idlers retreat.” After speaking, he glanced at Wen Fei and saw that she was well dressed. Then he asked: “Is there anything wrong with you?”
Wen Fei glanced at the open door of the palace: “I’m here to find Chu, don’t drive.”
Na Ya Ya has already seen the Chu family mark on Wen Fei’s new clothes, so he has no doubt about her coming to find Chu Min, and even has a two-point respectful attitude: “Then I will go in and pass the message, I don’t know. How do you call it?”
Wen Fei wasn’t impatient, and only said, “My name is Wen Fei. Just talk to Chu in private.”
If in Chang’an, the name of the young general is naturally famous, like Lei Guaner. But here is the south of the Yangtze River thousands of miles away from Chang’an. Even if the news of the court’s victory over the North Man is returned, others will only know her official position and title. Not to mention that Jiangnan is rich and comfortable, and it is far enough from the battlefield to the north, so that even the war is not even cared about by many people.
After hearing this, the servant didn’t notice anything. He probably hadn’t even heard of Wen Fei’s name before, so he went in and informed him after agreeing. After he found Chu Min, he didn’t make a public announcement, and he really told him about it in private.
Chu Min knew Wen Fei was coming. The servant who had brought him food had already told him about it: “Then you can bring people in, and take them directly to my duty room. I’ll go back in a while.”
The servant agreed and left, and soon took Wen Fei into the government office, took the people to Chu Min’s duty room, and left again.
Wen Fei walked around in the empty room and found that apart from the official seal on the desk, the layout of the room was no different from that of the study—Chu Min was obviously a man, whether it was the pen and ink on the desk. Paper and the bonsai bluegrass on the side are the best. And these are all brought from his own home, and the decoration is not only elegant, but also very comfortable.
Chu Min came back quickly, Wen Fei looked at the room, and he came back with two bookkeepers over there. Seeing Wen Fei, his brows were slightly loosened, and his attitude was much better than yesterday: “Wait a moment, I’ll give you a few words to my subordinates.”
Wen Fei naturally didn’t mind waiting for this short while, raising his hand to signal him to be free.
Chu Min nodded, then said a few more words to the book official, and then he crossed Wen Fei to the table, seeming to want to pick up a document. Only at the moment when he passed Wen Fei, his footsteps suddenly stopped, and then he quickly turned around to look at Wen Fei with a sharp gaze.
Wen Fei was seen inexplicably, and there was an obvious blankness on his face: “What’s the matter?”
Chu Min tightened his lips and didn’t speak, but his face turned dark suddenly and the corners of his mouth tightened to tell what he was enduring. After a long while, he withdrew his gaze angrily, turned around a few steps and walked back to the side of the case, “Walala” turned out a text book, and without reading it, he picked up the official seal next to it and sealed it with “Kang Dang”.
That posture, if the official seal was not made of copper, it really made people suspect that he would be shattered.
The two book clerks were frightened by the movement, but they looked at each other and saw that they were just as blank as they were in each other’s eyes. Fortunately, they also understand Chu Min’s temper, which is anxious and violent, but it will not involve the innocent. So the last two bookkeepers didn’t ask much, holding the stamped paper, they left without knowing it.
After everyone left, Chu Min went to close the door again, and then walked back to Wen Fei and asked with a black face, “Say, before you came, did you go to provoke my little girl again?!”
Wen Fei blinked in the face of the question, a little vacant, although Chu Xi ignored her at all this morning.
************************************************** ***********************
Of course, Chu Min was not an unknown prophet, nor did he see what happened in the mansion this morning with clairvoyance. He just has a keen sense of smell, and when passing by Wen Fei, he just smelled a faint scent of powder, and it was the kind of powder commonly used in his house.
It’s also a coincidence that Wen Fei has a good status. Last night, Xu arranged for her to be the best guest room in the house. The housekeeping services are also the best, including the powder in the dressing table, which is also a good item commonly used by female family members in Fuzhong. How did Chu Min know that Wen Fei, a military commander, would also apply grease and powder, and the powder that she smelled on her body was not too heavy, so it was only when she rubbed it by Chu Xi’s side.
The elder brother is very angry. Not to mention that their marriage has almost ended, even if they are really unmarried couples, there is no reason for them to be so inaccurate before they get married—even the fragrance of powder is caught up. If you want to say how respectful they are, of course Chu Min Do not believe.
It’s a pity that some things are hard to say clearly, and it hurts his sister’s reputation to say it. Chu Min had to gritted his teeth with anger.
After pouring two cups of herbal tea and saying “You can’t beat her” several times in his heart, Chu Min barely suppressed the anger in his heart. He was too lazy to look at Wen Fei holding an empty teacup, and asked coldly, “Why are you looking for me early in the morning?”
Although Wen Fei was a little confused by Chu Min’s startled attitude, he still got serious when talking about business: “I came to ask, have you discussed how to deal with the refugees outside the city? There are my subordinates, although they were washed away when the Shanghe River was flooded, they knew that I was coming to Jiangzhou, and most of them would gather here, and now they may also be stopped outside the city.”
It was getting late when they arrived in Jiangzhou last night. Although Wen Fei and Chu Xi went to see the refugees, they were limited in their places. Now I want to say that Wen Fei’s personal guards have rushed to Jiangzhou long ago, but they were all shut out of the city by that city gate, and they happened to not meet again last night. Taking a step back, Chen Ping, who was sent by her to redeem jade in Shuangxi Town, should have caught up in these two days.
It was all serious. Chu Min closed his mind somehow, but his frowned brows didn’t loosen the slightest: “There are too many refugees outside the city, and there are only a hundred manpower in the government office. It is really difficult to reorganize.”
Wen Fei was stunned when he heard this, and stopped mentioning his own guard. He naturally asked, “What about the local garrison?”
Chu Min heard the words but didn’t speak, his face was a little subtle, as if he wanted to talk but stopped.
When Wen Fei saw this, his thoughts quickly became clear-this ancient soldier is no better than the modern one, “soldiers” and “soldiers” are not good words. Although they were supported by the court, they did not have the consciousness of serving the people, and the generals led an army for a long time, and they might even think of them as private soldiers. The troops stationed on the border are still fighting against foreign enemies, and the troops in other places are indeed a bit hard to say.
It just so happened that the emperor sent Wen Fei to the south, playing the banner of patrolling military affairs. Although it was originally intended to start from the south of the Yangtze River, Jiangzhou is also considered to be the boundary of the south of the Yangtze River, and now half of the south of the Yangtze River is flooded, so it’s all right to start nearby.
Thinking of this, Wen Fei subconsciously touched the gold seal in his arms, and then asked Chu Min about the local garrison generals.
Of course Chu Min knew Wen Fei’s identity, and also knew why she went south. The previous behavior was meant for her. Seeing that Feiguo really wanted to intervene at the moment, he assumed that even if he was energetic, he would usually tell everything he knew.
In fact, it is nothing unusual. The Jiangzhou garrison general is just a fool who uses the garrison as a private soldier. He was unwilling to injure his soldiers. At first, the prefect of Jiangzhou ordered to close the city gates. Now that he heard that there may be a disease outside the city, he naturally didn’t want to open the city gates and let his soldiers take risks.
The military and government were originally two systems. In this case, the prefect of Jiangzhou couldn’t do anything about it. But Wen Fei pondered for a moment, but felt that the problem was not big, so he said, “Leave this to me, but let’s take my guards into the city first.”
Seeing her promised happily, Chu Min’s face finally showed two points of joy, and his eyebrows stretched out: “This matter is easy to say, I will send someone out of the city tonight. If Wu Weihou’s guards rush outside the city, they will be able to Found it and brought it back to the city.”
The two discussed a few more words, someone from the outside knocked on the door, obviously there was something to look for Chu Min.
Wen Fei didn’t intend to reveal his identity now, let alone interrupt Chu Min’s work, so he planned to leave now. She got up and walked to the door. Before opening the door, she turned her head and talked to Chu Min about the refugees who had entered the city. Finally, she said, “Brother Chu should try to find someone as soon as possible. When my guard enters the city, you will look for it. At this time, ask General Qiu to come out…”
Chu Min agreed, and happily sent Wen Fei away, only when he turned around did he remember that he was still angry before.
The author has something to say: Chu Min (angry): The powdery fragrance may not necessarily belong to my sister…but it is not my sister’s, is it my daughter-in-law? !
Wen Fei (…): It’s very wrong.
