Chapter 99

“This Nanyuezhou city…is not quite the same as I imagined…”

Yin Mingyu has taught the whole city to know how she is coming, so she is not in a hurry to enter, wearing a head full of pearls and bright clothes, standing in front of the grand entrance of the government office and looking leisurely.

Of course Xie Qin would not dislike the dissatisfaction, but he was used to being elegant, and staring at Yin Mingyu and Xie Ce’s outfits, his eyes rolled.

That’s why he only fixed his gaze on Yin Mingyu’s face, didn’t move up half a point, and said calmly, “It’s not an ordinary town, you’ll know when you turn around.”

He all said it was unusual, it must be really unusual, Yin Mingyu nodded slightly, but his head was a little heavy, and he lowered his head a little as if he was about to fall, so he had to straighten his neck again, maintaining a supporting action, and said slowly: “Wait. When I have free time, I must go around.”

And because she raised her chest and raised her chin slightly, she looked a bit domineering.

Xie Qin wanted to support her head, sighed slightly, and said, “I’ll tell you in detail later.”

Yin Mingyu gave a “hmm” and looked into the yamen. There were more people in official uniforms, “Isn’t Chu Langjun?”

“Yao Qing’s body is slightly ill.”

Xie Qin did not often lie, and he had hints, so his speech rate was a little slow.

Yin Mingyu glanced at him and said nothing.

At this time, Liu Sima and others in the yamen also came out. It stands to reason that the arrival of the female relatives of Shangguan did not have to be greeted by the officials, but Mrs. Inspector was too flamboyant, and she had to come out to greet her when she saw it.

So Yin Mingyu waited for a while longer outside the gate of the government office.

Yin Mingyu got to know these officials roughly, and said with great enthusiasm: “I am free in a few days, so I will hold a banquet for the adults and ladies. If the ladies have time, they can also invite me. I love to join in the fun.”

She is usually tired and lazy, and Xie Qin can’t help but be surprised that she is smiling all the time today.

The officials of the prefecture government did not know Mrs. Prefect, but they all knew the person of Prefect. She was extremely diligent and upright, and she was so diligent that she couldn’t even enter the market, but Mrs. Prefect…the couple were so different.

But no matter what they thought, everyone agreed.

Yin Mingyu said very understandingly that there would be no delay, and asked them to go back to the yamen to continue their work. After watching them leave, he glanced at Jin’er.

Jin’er understood and nodded immediately.

Xie Qin didn’t know what kind of riddles their master and servant were fighting, so he only asked, “Can we go in at this time?”

Yin Mingyu finally raised his foot and called Xie Ce, “Xiao Langjun, let’s go in.”

Xie Ce’s body was very straight. Hearing her words, he responded respectfully and politely: “Yes, mother.”

Then he followed Yin Mingyu’s side and took a step forward with his head held high. The arrogant young master of the family was extremely stable.

Xie Qin: “…”

Forget it, they are happy.

Xie Qin stayed a little longer, and had to make arrangements for the two clansmen that Yin Mingyu brought back.

The guard quietly reported the cause and effect to Xie Qin, and Xie Qin made a decision after thinking about it, and directly ordered people to temporarily imprison both people in the prefecture’s prison.

However, a cell in the prefectural government prison is not large, and it needs to be detained separately. He specially ordered that the Yan clan and Nanmeng people would be separated and detained, and the Yan clan people would stare at the Nanmeng people for Xie Qin, and the Xie family was the other one Guards and jailers, if anyone tries to get close to them or something happens, there will be nowhere to hide.

Although it is still impossible to fully trust those Yan clan people, this way, the Xie family’s manpower does not have to be allocated to other places, which does give Xie Qin some convenience.

Xie Qin thought that in the future this state city would be lively because of Yin Mingyu, a smile appeared on his face, and he slowly stepped into the back house.

When Mrs. Governor entered the city, the pomp and limelight were even greater than that of the Governor. The people did not dare to approach the gate of the ya office, but they watched from a distance. It was not until the Xie family unloaded their luggage and took the carriage away for the resettlement that they gradually dispersed.

But it doesn’t take much thinking to know that the people who are talking about in the Mancheng dialect today are all the newly arrived Mrs.

back house—

As soon as Qingyu and Hongsi heard the news, they took people to wait at the door of the back house. When they saw the young lady and Xiaolangjun, they all showed excitement and saluted.

Yin Mingyu called them up, held their hands and said, “But I haven’t seen each other for a long time. It seems that the water in Nanyue is quite nourishing, and you are becoming more and more tender.”

Qingyu and Hongsi both came forward, smiled and said some kind words to join in the fun, and said hello to Jin’er and Yin’er.

As they talked, they walked towards the door of the house, and as they walked, Nan Ke was exposed behind them.

When Hong Su saw Nan Ke’s face, she was instantly stunned.

Qingyu also saw her, turned her eyes away, sat on Ranliu for a while, and finally turned to Red Silk, holding back her laughter.

Red Silk: “…”

I don’t know why it’s a bit resigned, and no matter how much you want to compete for favor, it can’t match the speed at which the young lady brought people back.

Yin Mingyu didn’t notice their gaze, her head was heavy and she couldn’t care about other things, she just glanced at the courtyard quickly, and then hurriedly greeted Qingyu and Hongshu to go to the main room to remove her hair.

Xie Ce’s wishful lock also fell from his neck, and he was tired after such a long journey. He followed her in, talking about taking it off.

Jin’er and Yin’er saw that their lady’s eyes were only sapphire and red silk.

Nan Ke was taken into the main room to sit. She was thinking about her sister, but seeing that everyone in the Xie family was busy, even if they were in a hurry, they were too embarrassed to disturb, so they had to wait anxiously.

In the inner room, Nanny Tong helped Xie Ce put away the Ruyi lock and changed his clothes.

Yin Mingyu was sitting in front of the dressing table, Qingyu and Hongshu were talking to her while removing her hair.

They were laughing and laughing here, but Nan Ke was fidgeting outside, holding a teacup and didn’t drink a single sip.

Yin Mingyu didn’t change her clothes, took off those jewelry, and came out to see her new residence. Xie Ce also wanted to explore her new home and followed behind her.

As soon as Nanke saw her, he immediately put down the cup, stood up, and watched her closely.

Yin Mingyu introduced Qingyuhongshu: “This is Nanke, also from the Nanmeng clan. It is said that there is a sister, Nanduo, bring her here and teach them sisters to meet.”

Speaking of another Nanmeng beauty, she couldn’t wait to meet her.

Qingyu and Hongsi looked at each other, their eyes dodged a little, and then went to the side room to call someone together. Nan Ke couldn’t wait, and got up and followed.

The entire prefecture’s house was excited for the arrival of the young lady, with the only exception being Nan Duo in the partial room.

As soon as she heard the loud noise outside, the young lady was long and the young lady was short, and fear instantly struck her. She hurriedly hid in the gap between the wall and the bed, clutching the legs of the bed tightly.

Qingyu and Hongsi walked in, looked around the room, sighed at each other, and walked to the corner habitually.

Nan Ke came in and didn’t see anyone, so he followed the two of them suspiciously, and all of a sudden he saw the person huddled in the corner, “Sister?!”

Nan Duo looked up suddenly, saw who it was, and panicked instantly, “Nanke? Nanke, run!”

“Sister, what’s wrong with you?” Nan Ke pushed aside Qingyu and Hongsi, squatted in front of her, and was at a loss when he saw how she had lost several laps of weight.

At this time, Yin Mingyu walked in.

She thought she would see the beauty in the painting come into reality. Whoever wants to be beautiful is beautiful, but the beauty has thinned to a pointed chin, and her big eyes look extra large on the small face as big as the palm of her hand. People look furious.

“This is… a nightmare?”

Hong Su called out “Mrs. Young Lady”, Nan Duo heard it and pushed Nan Ke more vigorously, “Go away! She eats people!”

“Ah?” Nan Ke was stunned, fell to the ground inadvertently, and slowly turned his head to look at Yin Mingyu with wide eyes full of doubts.

Yin Mingyu was at a loss, what can eat people? eat what?

She blocked the door, Xie Ce got out from behind her, raised her head and asked, “Mother, have you started eating people?”

Yin Mingyu twitched the corner of his mouth, spread his five fingers, pressed against his face, and tucked Xie Ce behind him.

Xie Ce took off her hand and squeezed it out from the other side, looking at the room curiously.

They all just came today, so naturally they didn’t know what was going on with Nan Duo, so Yin Mingyu and Nan Ke looked at Qingyu and Hongsi together, and Xie Ce followed them.

Sapphire, red silk: “…”

They don’t know either, but they are inexplicably guilty.

Nan Duo looked frightened and couldn’t push Nan Ke away, so he began to pull her into his arms to protect her.

Nan Ke whispered to her in the language of their clan, asked a few questions, and Nan Duo answered in a low voice.

Yin Mingyu and the others didn’t understand, they only looked at the sisters.

After a while, Nan Ke hugged his sister and turned his head, pointed at Qingyu and Hongsi, and said, “My sister said, it’s what you said, it’s not good to lose weight, are you scaring her?”

She made something out of nothing and wronged people for nothing.

How could Hong Silk teach them that these foreigners have the upper hand, so she pinched her waist and glared at Nan Ke with her beautiful eyes.

Just when Qingyu thought she was going to argue with that Nanke who had just arrived, Hong Silk suddenly stomped her foot, walked in front of the young lady, and said in a weeping grief, “Young lady, what kind of temperament do Qingyu and I have? You know, how could we bully a woman for no reason? It’s really strange for these foreigners to say such inexplicable words, and they are uneasy and kind.”

Red silk is beautiful, and she has served the young lady the longest since she arrived at Xie’s house. Knowing the young lady’s temperament, the slandered expression of grievance was extremely pitiful.

Qingyu twitched the corners of her mouth, but she also cooperated with her and said with an expression: “Young Madam, we have never said such a thing.”

Hong Silk looked at the young lady pitifully, “Young lady, they have wronged us like this, you have to decide for us~”

They hadn’t seen each other for a long time, and Yin Mingyu reassured: “Okay, I believe in you.”

Nan Ke, of course, was on his sister’s side. Hearing Yin Mingyu’s words, he immediately retorted: “Madam, didn’t you say that Lord Prefect will not treat my sister harshly? Look at my sister, how could she deliberately wrong them.”

She said, holding Nan Duo’s chin in her hand.

Yin Mingyu took a look and saw that this was a face as big as a slap in the face. His eyes were flushed, and there were tears in his eyes. At this time, his staring was not that big, like a rabbit, which was more provocative than Hong Silk’s fake expression. pity.

Not to mention that there is a very similar-looking Nan Ke next to her, who is also staring at her.

For the first time, Yin Mingyu knew that there were many beauties, and there were also some small troubles.

She was soft-hearted when she was crying, and she couldn’t see that when she was crying, and she didn’t want to feel wronged. So is this a dizziness?

Nanke: “Madam…”

Not to be outdone, Hong Silk also called out, “Young Madam…”

Yin Mingyu cleared his throat, and by the way, cleared all the messy thoughts in his mind, and said with a smile, “But Miss Nanduo heard it wrong? I don’t eat people, but I like beautiful and delicious meals.”

Nan Duo Han speaks a little bit less, and after listening to her explain it frankly again, she understands the meaning of “beautiful and delicious”, and with her sister by her side, she quiets down.

There is no proof of this matter, but when I calm down and think about it, I think it is a misunderstanding.

But even so, Sister Nan Conan Duo, and the second maid of Qingyu Hongsi, did not shake hands to make peace, and the atmosphere was alienated.

Yin Mingyu asked them to go to the main room to talk, Qingyu came over as a dyed willow, and in the main room was Yin Mingyu sitting at the top, looking at the four beauties with their own characteristics in front of them.

And everyone has a love for beauty. Xie Ce sat next to Yin Mingyu and looked at this and that.

Yin Mingyu didn’t care about the relationship between them. He talked to this one and that one for a while. It was pleasing to the eyes, and his smile never fell.

Later, when Jin’er, Yin’er, and Qingyu finished their work, they all gathered in the main room.

Xie Qin finished working in the front office, and as soon as he stepped into the door of the main room, he saw the girl in this room and couldn’t help frowning.

The maids hurriedly saluted respectfully, and even Nan Ke and Nan Duo were a little afraid of him.

Yin Mingyu greeted him with a smile: “Lang Jun, are you done? Come and sit.”

Xie Qin passed through the girls and walked to Yin Mingyu’s side. He didn’t feel that the main room was cramped before, but today he felt quite suffocated. After sitting down, he swept over Qingyu and the others, and said, “You guys step back.”

Several maids reacted immediately and bowed to leave. When Jin’er and Yin’er left, kindly took away Nan Ke and Nan Duo who were confused.

The main room became quiet all of a sudden, Xie Qin comforted his arms, and asked someone to prepare dinner.

Yin Mingyu did not have those beauties to look at, but could still look at Xie Qin, and looked at him with a smile on his chin with one hand.

Xie Qin taught her to look hot, took a sip of tea from the teacup, and saw Xie Ce sitting on the couch at some point, and looked at him with his chin up, he immediately sat upright, and said solemnly: “Ce’er, use it later. After dinner, go back to your room to sleep early, and my father would have someone clean up the house for you.”

Xie Ce was reluctant to leave, “I want to sleep together…”

Xie Qin refused without hesitation: “You have been enlightened, how can you pester your parents and go back to sleep.”

Xie Ce puffed up his face, unwilling, lying on Yin Mingyu’s back, coquettishly said: “Mother, want to sleep together…”

Yin Mingyu raised his eyes slightly, with a playful smile in his eyes, like silk, he gently and slowly wrapped around Xie Qin for a moment, then left again, and said slowly: “I can’t control it, you can talk about your father. Yes.”

Xie Ce glanced at his father’s increasingly serious face, pouted, and gave up wisely.

During dinner, the family of three sat around a small round table, without teaching the maid to wait on them, and talked while eating.

Yin Mingyu remembered the attitude of those officials during the day and asked, “Don’t they know that there was an accident on our way?”

“I didn’t say it, but I have some guesses.” Xie Qin served her and Xie Ce both vegetables and explained softly, “Nanyue officialdom was infiltrated by those two clans, and I don’t know if there is someone behind these officials. If you want to Be careful when you go out.”

Yin Mingyu smiled meaningfully, “Don’t worry, I will definitely bring enough people…”

Xie Qin knew her now. When he saw her smiling face, he knew that she had some crazy ideas. The corners of his mouth rose, and he immediately asked, “Do you have any other plans for taking those people?”

“Since it is said that it is the coolie brought to Langjun, it is naturally arranged by Langjun.” But Yin Mingyu insisted confidently, “They scared me, and they have to teach some lessons first.”

Xie Ce said: “It scared me too.”

If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, Xie Qin would have believed it.

But whether it was really frightening or not, what those people did was a fact, and they really needed to be taught a lesson, so Sechin asked, “How do you want to teach a lesson.”

Yin Mingyu gave a wicked smile, leaned over to Xie Qin’s ear, and told him.

Xie Qin was focused, but Yin Mingyu breathed like blue beside his ear. His ears were extremely sensitive, and he couldn’t help itching hot.

“I want to hear it too.”

Xie Ce suddenly made a sound, and instantly poured it into Xie Qin’s heart like a basin of cold water.

Xie Qin looked at Xie Ce blankly and asked, “Have you finished eating?”

Xie Ce looked down at the half bowl of rice in the bowl and shook his head, “I haven’t finished it yet.”

Xie Qin urged: “Don’t say anything, just concentrate on eating.”

But you were just talking, or whispering.

Xie Ce didn’t dare to refute his father, so he buried his head to eat, and muttered, “It’s still okay…”

Xie Qin also informed Yin Mingyu of Chu He’s whereabouts, and the two exchanged some other information. Occasionally, Xie Ce would say a childish language, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious and intimate.

After the meal, the maids took away the leftovers, and Yin Mingyu sat on the couch to drink water.

Taking advantage of this gap, Xie Qin planned to go to the second hall to make some arrangements. Before leaving, seeing Xie Ce still playing around in the house, he ordered, “Tell Nanny Tong to take you back to rest.”

Xie Ce stopped, and when his father left, he sighed like a little adult: “Father is a disappointment…”

Yin Mingyu is funny, but I still don’t know who spoils the fun.

Xie Ce still didn’t want to leave, so he went to Yin Mingyu’s side again, lying on her lap, and asked cutely, “Mother, can’t we sleep together?”

Yin Mingyu nodded his nose, “Mother doesn’t want you to be a little spoiled, grown-up children have to sleep alone.”

Xie Ce’s small face was full of helplessness, and he said reluctantly, “I want to drink water, I’ll go after drinking it.”

Yin Mingyu poured him a cup, and when he handed it to him, Xie Ce didn’t hold it firmly and accidentally spilled it on his shirt, so he called Nanny Tong to take Xie Ce back to change it.

After Nanny Tong took Xie Ce away, Xie Qin came back, Yin Mingyu handed him the half glass of water, and then entered the inner room.

There was only this glass of water on the table, and Xie Qin thought it was Yin Mingyu who drank it, with some vague hints.

It was because he held the cup with his sharp-boned fingers, slowly turning it, and some lingering meaning gradually emerged in his lowered eyes, and he drank it after a while.

At the door, Xie Ce’s little head poked in through the crack of the door. When he saw his father took his cup, he was anxious: “Mother poured it for me.”

Xie Qin’s hand holding the cup froze, “…”

Xie Ce pushed open the door completely, stepped over the threshold and entered, with a little accusation: “Father, this is my cup.”

Xie Qin’s smile gradually disappeared, he was speechless for a moment, and then said seriously: “What about the rules? How can you enter the door without permission?”

When Xie Ce heard his father’s lesson, he lowered his head and admitted his mistake very well.

Seeing him like this, Xie Qin softened his expression, took another cup, and poured it to him.

Xie Ce took it with both hands obediently, and after drinking it, he obediently handed it to his father.

Xie Qin took it and said, “Go back to rest after drinking.”

Xie Ce bowed to his father and saluted, backed up to the door, his heel touched the threshold, he turned around quickly, nimbly crossed the threshold, and ran away.

Xie Qin couldn’t help pinching his eyebrows.

Afterwards, Xie Qin got up, walked calmly to the door, inserted the latch, turned and walked into the inner room.

Yin Mingyu was looking for something in the cage with his back to the door. Hearing the movement behind him, he asked without turning his head, “Is it the little man who came here again?”

“Yeah.” Xie Qin replied softly and walked towards her.

Yin Mingyu found the ledger, picked it up, and just stood up straight, and the whole person rose into the air.

She hugged Xie Qin’s neck subconsciously, came back to her senses, and said with a smile, “What is Lang Jun doing? How is it so indecent?”

Xie Qin hugged her to the bed, lowered his head and dropped a light kiss on her eyes, and said in a low voice, “Just laugh at me at will, I’ll take it.”

Yin Mingyu didn’t want to laugh at him. It would be strange if they didn’t do the firewood and fire again after a long absence.

But… “I haven’t showered yet, so you might as well take a look at this first.”

After Yin Mingyu was put on the bed by Xie Qin, he directly stuffed the ledger into Xie Qin’s arms.

Xie Qin didn’t want to look at other things at this time, so he held the ledger and pressed him down, so he wanted to throw it away.

Yin Mingyu held his wrist holding the account book with one hand, pressed his chest with the other, stopped Xie Qin’s pressing down, and said, “Lang Jun, take a look, I’ll take a bath first.”

After she finished speaking, she got out from under Xie Qin and planned to take a bath in the bathroom.

Xie Qin grabbed her wrist and pulled the person back with a little strength.

Yin Mingyu sat down on Xie Qin’s lap, raised his brows and smiled.

Xie Qin circled her, opened the booklet, and saw some strange accounts, with doubts in his eyes.

Yin Mingyu said seriously: “This is the account I made. Lang Jun has to give me some hard money.”

“My private seal is in your hands, you can use it at will, never have I ever restrained you.” Xie Qin finished speaking, thinking of Yin Mingyu’s happy appearance when he got the money, he still seriously satisfied her preferences.

On the page of the ledger, it was written [a bottle of poison, three hundred taels].

Xie Qin asked, “That poison is worth three hundred taels?”

Yin Mingyu said: “The old doctor said that it is a highly poisonous snake venom, which is extremely rare. Three hundred taels are absolutely innocent.”

Xie Qin was noncommittal, pointed to the next one, and asked, “The entrance is unclean, fifty money, what does this mean?”

“Xiao Langjun wants to be filial to you, and I taught my maid to secretly change it. He hasn’t remembered it yet, otherwise would you eat it?” Yin Mingyu said with reason, “Fifty money, only less not much.”

Xie Qin: “…”

He casually turned to the back and saw the penultimate page, which read [One hundred and forty-three manpower, two hundred and eighty-six taels of manpower], and instantly understood that it was the Nanmeng and Yan tribes.

As expected of Yin Mingyu, there are parts and parts.

Xie Qin calmly turned to the last page. When he saw the word [a quarter of an hour at the gate of the government office, one hundred taels] written on it, he was silent for a moment, and then asked speechlessly, “Calculate money by time? Isn’t it a coincidence?”

Yin Mingyu smiled but said nothing. She is different now. She has to count the money according to the time when she appears on the stage, otherwise it will not meet her status as the lady of the prefect.

Xie Qin put down the ledger, picked her up and walked to the bathroom, insisting, “Eighty taels.”

Yin Mingyu didn’t expect to be able to bargain so much, “Too little.”

“This is my monthly salary.”

Yin Mingyu put his arms around his neck and reluctantly agreed: “Alright.”

White anyway.
