Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

"Your Highness, that Ali White is a little useful to me. In two days, when you see me off outside the city, put on a show with me in front of him."

Li Yuanzhao was very interested: "What kind of show?"

Fang Zheng whispered: "When Ali White is present, you should do this... and that... in front of him."

After a brief explanation, he bid farewell to Li Yuanzhao and Fang Zheng left the palace directly.

He naturally knew that Ali White hadn't left his house for two days. Moreover, he knew exactly what he ate every day.

After all, he had already communicated with Honglu Temple in advance.

This is a good sign, at least Ali White really listened to what he said.

He knew too much about the mentality of this kind of little rascal!

It's better to change your mind. A stubborn person probably still wants to get back at him, but it's not easy to fool him.

But there are other things to be busy with right now.

Now that he is going to the Jin Kingdom, Chu Qinghan is thinking about going to the border town to do business. This time, it is necessary to ask them what they think.

If they don't want to go, that's naturally the best.

If they want to go, this time, let them follow the mission to see the harsh environment along the way. Even if they don't change their original intention and can't be persuaded, it's good to understand the situation.

Although he knew in his heart that Chu Qinghan had repeatedly refused him and wanted to clear up the relationship with him.

But in all fairness, he ruined the reputation of the sisters, making them unable to return home, even if the root cause was on the head of Chu Qinghan's eldest brother, that idiot.

But he had seen both sisters naked after all... This point is unavoidable, he can't deceive himself.

Because it was really beautiful...

Riding his horse, he rushed to the door of the Chu family. It happened that both sisters were not at home. Fortunately, the gatekeeper recognized Fang Zheng.

Not daring to neglect him, he hurriedly welcomed him in. After waiting for half an hour, Chu Qinghan and Chu Youyi returned home.

The two of them were carrying large and small bags, looking quite tired.

"Brother Fang is here." Chu Youyi said in surprise when she saw Fang Zheng.

Chu Qinghan saw Fang Zheng leisurely drinking tea, hurriedly put down the things in her hand, and stepped forward to greet him.

"Master Fang, what brings you here?"

Fang Zheng put down his teacup and said, "It's not a big deal, just seeing how you are doing. What did you go out to do?"

"Thank you for your concern, sir. I just went to buy some household items with Youyi..."

Fang Zheng glanced at the package. Seeing that the package was bulging and a corner was exposed, he asked, "Household items? I think that's fur."

Seeing that she was exposed, Chu Qinghan nodded awkwardly.

Chu Youyi suddenly interjected: "Sister bought some fur to compare with the fur on the market."

Fang Zheng sighed: "You're determined to go to the border town, aren't you? This business is not so easy to do, especially for women."

Chu Qinghan didn't say anything, sat on the chair and nodded lightly.

"It is indeed difficult to do, but I don't quite agree with one point that Master Fang said. Men can do things, and women can do them too."

Fang Zheng smiled wryly: "You're right. Okay, I don't want to persuade you anymore. You've all heard about the Jin Kingdom mission in the capital, right?"

"I've heard about it."

"Actually, the Jin Kingdom mission will return in two days. Moreover, it's not just them who are leaving. The imperial court has decided to send a mission in return and discuss trade between the two countries again."

"I think since you are going, you might as well go to the Jin Kingdom with me. First, it's safe, and second, if you negotiate a result, you will have first-hand information. At that time, there will definitely be other unexpected business opportunities, so you don't have to do fur. Everyone is an acquaintance, and I am naturally happy to see you seize the opportunity."

Chu Qinghan's face showed a tangled expression: "Master Fang, I..."

"Hey, listen to me first." Fang Zheng raised his hand and said: "I have prepared everything for the luggage, you don't need to prepare anything, just bring a few sets of clothes and set off with me. There are other officials from Da Jing with you, so you don't have to worry."

"Then thank you very much, Master Fang. Qinghan will never forget it." Chu Qinghan got up and solemnly bowed to Fang Zheng.

Agreed? I thought I would have to spend a lot of time talking. Fang Zheng was a little surprised: "Don't be so serious. Since you have agreed, that's good. Then you and Youyi should pack up some clothes as soon as possible, and we will set off the day after tomorrow."

"I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first."

After Fang Zheng finished speaking, he left without looking back, ignoring the two women's retention.

Although he really wanted to drink tea with the Tifa sisters, there were indeed many important things to do. Before leaving, there were many things waiting for him to arrange in the county, the Jinyiwei, Dongjiao University, and so on.

Seeing that Fang Zheng had really left, Chu Youyi approached Chu Qinghan and asked, "Sister, why did you agree to him? Aren't you always afraid of owing him favors?"

"What else can I do if I don't agree?" Chu Qinghan said helplessly: "He is so kind and has helped us several times. If we don't agree again, we will be ungrateful."

"What's more, there are too many unsafe places along the way. You have to run with me. What if something happens?"

"Now I feel a lot more at ease going to the Jin Kingdom with the mission. Next time, we will have our own experience."

Chu Youyi said tangledly: "That's what you said, but what should we do about the favors we owe? How will we repay them in the future?"

Chu Qinghan sighed faintly: "What else can we do? Repay them slowly. If it really doesn't work, you can go and be his maid. I think you are happier to see him than to see me."

Speaking of maids, Chu Youyi suddenly remembered that she was mistaken for Fang Zheng's maid when she first went to the academy.

"Nonsense!" Chu Youyi's pretty face was flushed: "It's rare for guests to come to the house, can I still wear a sad face?"

"You should be the one to be a maid. Which older sister would let her younger sister pay off debts?"

"Tch, he is a驸马. That's a world of difference. You might not even be able to be a maid even if you wanted to." Chu Qinghan mocked herself.

It seems that she can't even be a maid...

A trace of loneliness flashed in Chu Youyi's eyes, and she said dejectedly: "Sister, why don't we go home... Why do we have to do business outside? We have everything at home, and we can do whatever we want in Yuding City."

"Go home, how can we go home? How will others look at us? Do you want to live with others pointing fingers at you?" Chu Qinghan frowned, "I am in charge of the family's business. Dad wants to forcibly take over so that my eldest brother can inherit the family business."

"Okay, I'll give it all back to him, fulfill his wish, can't I have nothing? Now, there is no other way to choose but to be self-reliant!"

"There is no better place to do business than the capital. Don't think too much. When we make money in the future, I will find you a good family to marry, so you don't pester me all day long."

"You're annoyed with me, aren't you! You can marry yourself!" Chu Youyi stamped her foot and ran into the house angrily.

"You dead girl, come back, we haven't packed our things yet!"

Watching Chu Youyi's figure disappear, Chu Qinghan was annoyed with a hint of helplessness, and silently packed up her things.
