Chapter 88

Shen Chang'an: Talk about subordinates like me who are as rich as a country but are still penniless!

Gu Qichi looked at Coke, and followed her all the time. He saw several letters in a row, crying poorly after finishing their business.

So he said: "Chang'an, I still have some silver in my hand..."

Shen Chang'an couldn't put it into words, "No, no, they're just writing for fun."

Gu Qichi: "???"

The chariots and horses headed south all the way, and when they were still ten miles away from Yucheng, Inspector Li and his family greeted him at the ten-mile long pavilion.

Behind him were several officials from Yucheng, as well as wealthy families, and at the end were the people who came spontaneously, mighty and mighty, forcibly creating an atmosphere of the emperor's presence.

After Shen Chang'an got off the carriage, Gu Qichi got off the horse and walked with Shen Chang'an. Inspector Li was beating his head, why didn't he hear that someone else was coming?

After saluting Shen Changan, he asked in a low voice: "Princess, who is this? Could it be the emperor sent by the emperor to supervise the army?"

As we all know, supervising the army is not a good thing.

Hiss, do you want to leave this supervising army in Yuzhou, so as not to follow the eldest princess to Yangzhou and get in the way again.

Gu Qichi heard it clearly, he felt that Li Cishi's eyes were very strange, and if he didn't reveal his identity, he was afraid that he would keep his life here.

He hurriedly said: "This is Li Inspector, my father is Zhennan King."

It turned out to be the prince of Zhennan.

Inspector Li let out an "oh", and his tone was quite disappointed.

He welcomed the two into the city and took them to a house, except that it was bigger than the one in Luowu City and had more flowers and plants.

Time was tight, Shen Changan told Li Inspector to stay for one night and leave early tomorrow morning, Li Inspector was quite reluctant and wanted to keep Shen Changan and others to stay for a few more days.

He has made a lot of achievements since becoming the governor, and he wants to report to Shen Chang'an.

Shen Chang'an thought it was funny, what to report to her, you reported to Emperor Xuan of Jin in the last memorial, and you can get some rewards or something.

Governor Li said that he is not such a vulgar person!

After dinner, Bao Shi and Shen Chang'an were talking in the study, Li Shishi and Gu Qichi were driven to the yard, they looked at each other, and then looked away in disgust.

"Princess," Bao handed a thick envelope to Shen Chang'an, "Masters don't slander, is the princess interested in helping the eldest prince get into that seat?"

Bao's voice was extremely low, as if he was muttering to himself.

Shen Chang'an accepted the envelope, saying inexplicably, "Everyone in the world loves power, and I am also a layman."

When Bao heard this, he smiled and said: "The princess is the eldest son, it is orthodox, the adults and the courtiers are weak, but if the princess needs it, she will always be at her disposal."

Tea was being boiled in the small stove, and Shen Chang'an personally poured tea for Bao, substituting tea for wine, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

Before Shen Changan left, Bao Shi hesitated for a moment, and said to Shen Changan: "Yangzhou is a place of wealth and honor, and the water depth is tight. Don't worry, my lord is from the natal family of my lord, but when my lord married my lord, she had already broken ties with her natal family."

"The minister's wife has no parents or relatives in her natal family. Although the Bao family is good, the minister's wife does not dare to get involved. If the princess needs it, it is better to go to the Li family. The Li family has a clean and upright family style, and the rules are the most important."

Shen Changan understood, "I've made a note of it, thank you Madam."

The candle was crackling, and Bao looked at the hourglass, seeing that it was getting late, he bid farewell to let Shen Changan have a good rest.

Shen Chang'an sent her to the courtyard, and saw Li Cishi lying on the stone table sleeping Zhengxiang, snoring loudly, Bao Shi was embarrassed, and wanted to bring her husband back to the stove to rebuild!
"Huh? Ma'am, are you done talking?"

Bao grabbed Li Inspector's ear, Li Inspector shuddered and woke up suddenly.

He shivered again, tightened his clothes, and said: "Madam, let's go quickly, this damn weather, I'll freeze to death!"

The weather here is weird, it's hot during the day, but at night it's windy and cold.

Bao gave him an angry look, "The eldest princess is still here!"

Inspector Li said "Oh" twice, it seemed that he was not fully awake yet, and was still a little confused.

Shen Chang'an smiled and said "It's not in the way", Bao insisted on saluting, and asked the servant to help Li Inspector to go back.

Inspector Li pushed the servant away in disgust, and took Bao Shi's hand. Maybe it was a woman with a thin skin, Bao Shi broke away, and Inspector Li refused, but he did not dare to hold hands for fear of being beaten by his wife.

He had no choice but to grab Bao Shi's sleeve in grievance, and to prevent Bao Shi from throwing knives at him, like a... not very flexible fat rabbit.

Shen Changan wanted to laugh inexplicably, wondering if she would do the same in the future.

Just as she was thinking wildly, she suddenly felt a weight on her body, and turned her head to see that it was Gu Qichi who put the cloak on her.

"It's cold outside, go back inside."

Gu Qichi rubbed her hair in a bun, and said: "Tomorrow we have to hurry, so we should rest earlier."

Shen Changan pushed away his hand, straightened his messy bun, "Why didn't you rest?"

"I'm not sleepy," Gu Qichi's hand was about to move, Shen Changan gave him a warning look, and he took it behind his back regretfully.

Both said to let the other go to rest, but neither of them went, the moonlight was tender like water, and they sat on the stone bench to watch the moon.

"By the way, what did you say to Governor Li?"

Bored him to sleep?
"It's nothing," Gu Qichi said helplessly, "It's just the way of being an official and the key to politics. I didn't expect that Governor Li didn't know this way, but he has a lot of research on health preservation."

Li Cishi's way of keeping in good health is to plant flowers, walk birds, drink tea and take a walk.

Shen Chang'an couldn't help laughing at what he said. Doesn't this mean that Governor Li is not doing his job properly?
A dignified governor, not good at being an official, he learned how to grow flowers and walk birds like a half-century old man in his thirties, as if he killed a salt seller when he was idle.

Shen Chang'an smiled, "You speak tactfully."

Gu Qichi looked up at the moon, and just about to speak, he saw Shen Changan lying on the stone table, drowsy.

Are you so sleepy?

Liuli turned on the lamp, and the small courtyard became brighter. Gu Qichi hugged Shen Changan and took her to the inner room to rest.

The moon and stars are thin, and the wind chimes under the eaves are ringing.

【Good night. 】

In the early morning of the next day, Shen Chang'an led his people to set off, Li Shishi led his people to see them off, and did not leave until he saw them go far away.

After returning home, Inspector Li pulled Bao Shi into the study, and quietly asked her if she had given the things to Shen Chang'an.

He was too sleepy yesterday, and fell asleep after returning home. His wife washed his feet. If he didn't wash his feet, his wife wouldn't let him sleep on the bed.

Well, he will wash Madam's feet tonight.

While tidying up the mess in the study, Bao said, "Yes, you think I'm just like you, confused all day long!"

Inspector Li just laughed when he didn't speak, he knew that if he spoke, his wife would be even more nagging.

The more you go south, the more stuffy it gets. It's not the kind of "sunshine", but "stuffy". Shen Changan and Shuiyun are in the carriage, raising the curtain from time to time to get some air.

That girl Liuli has been outside for a long time, she is quite talented, after Mo Tan taught her for a few days, she learned how to ride a horse.
