Ruan Qing was stumped the next day after she came back.

He is a night owl, and his brain runs at high speed at night, so he stayed up until midnight in Zhang'an this year, and slept half the day until the sun was up.

Returning to Wu County suddenly, with the system in place, he couldn't get used to it for a while.

Sun Ce, a dog man, he went out with their Sun Jia Erlang to work hard for a year, and he didn't even give him a day off when he came back.You have to get to and from get off work on time.

what! ! ! !

mad.

Ruan Qing slowly got up after squinting and scolding Sun Ce for a long time in the bed.

Next to his bed is Ku Rong's nest.

I don't know if Ku Rong took the rat poison or something, but he woke up early, whimpering beside his bed every day, asking him to open the door and let it go out to have fun.

If you don't want to put it in another room at night, you have to squeeze him into his room whenever you get a chance.

One or two puppies don't let him worry.

Ruan Qing got up cursing, opened the door first, and let Ku Rong out, then went back to change clothes, washed up, and slammed the door to go to work.

Without eating, he can live without food for five or six days.Wouldn't it be nice to have a little more sleep while eating?

All the way to the government office.He first went to report to old man Zhang Zhao.

Ah ah ah ah ah! ! ! !

more angry.He didn't want to see the old man at all.

Knocking on the door lightly, he didn't push the door open until there was a sound from inside the room.

Looking up, he saw Zhang Zhao's old face full of wrinkles.Ruan Qing wanted to cry.

"Chang Shi." He bowed solemnly, hoping that the old man Zhang Zhao would give a lecture quickly and let him go as soon as the training was over.

"Ah."

Around this year, Zhang Zhao heard about all the good things he did in Zhang'an, and his impression of him changed.

In a word, although Zhang Zhao's tone was as cold as ever, the gaze he looked at him was much more relaxed.

Then he came out of the house with all his beard and tail, and he returned to his original office in a daze.

After entering the door, Lu Su was still in his original position, he was writing something furiously, and without raising his head when he heard the voice, he just said, "The corrected ones have been placed on the case, you can take them away."

Ruan Qing didn't make a sound, and silently squatted in front of the case, holding her chin and looking at Lu Su who was concentrating on it.

Lu Su didn't hear the sound for a long time, felt puzzled, finally he was willing to raise his head, and what he saw was Ruan Qing's young face.

"came back."

"Why is Brother Zijing not excited at all when seeing Qing come back?" Ruan Qing leaned back and sat on the ground.

Lu Su smiled, put the things on the table aside, turned around, took the things wrapped in coarse cloth from behind, put them on the desk, and said softly, "Eat."

Another salty round cake made by Lu Su's mother.

Ruan Qing's eyes lit up, she tore off a mouthful and stuffed it into her mouth, "How did brother know that Qing didn't eat breakfast?" He seemed to think of something, "So my brother knew that Qing was coming back."

"Earlier, the Marquis of Wu sent troops to attack Huang Zu. Unexpectedly, the old lady was seriously ill, so she hurried back to the army. Su thought, since the Marquis of Wu has rushed back, the young general must also be back. So counting the days, you will probably meet these few days. Go back to the palace."

Ruan Qing stopped chewing on her cheeks, "Brother, you have calculated that Marquis Wu will not give Qing time to rest."

Lu Su smiled and shook his head, "These days you left, your position has been vacant. Someone recommended talents for Marquis Wu, but Marquis Wu has never promised the position."

What does Sun Ce want to do?Ruan Qing murmured in her heart.

He always thought that in Sun Ce's heart, he was a burden that he wanted to get rid of but couldn't.Unexpectedly, Sun Ce was willing to save his position.Is this trusting his abilities?This dog man is not as bad as he thought.

Thinking of this, Ruan Qing felt better. It seems that her attitude towards this dog man should be gentler in the future.

"Wu Hou is probably going to annoy Huang Zu to death." He suddenly changed the subject, jokingly, "Jiangxia Huang Zu in a mere way hindered Wu Hou's progress. He just couldn't beat him once or twice. Dropped. If there is a delay this time, it may take another year to not mobilize troops..."

He suddenly realized what he was saying, and the breath of the last sentence gradually fell.He lowered his head and chewed the cake silently, trying to play dead.

There is a national mourning, and it is not easy to mobilize troops.

Lu Su also vaguely heard the news that Mrs. Wu was seriously ill.Hearing what Ruan Qing said, his eyes became unpredictable, "You...have you been to the Houfu?"

Before he finished chewing the food in his mouth, a piece of pasta in his hand was already waiting for his lips.Ruan Qing nodded incredulously, "Hmm..."

"Many people in the mansion are dissatisfied with how Marquis Wu treats you. You'd better not say such things, and let interested people hear it. It's not a joke." Lu Su pointed out.

"Qing knows." He raised his head and smiled awkwardly, "Qing is going to clean up the business."

There is a pile of bamboo slips and white silk on the table.He looked at Lu Su in astonishment, and howled, "Why are there so many!"

"When you are away, Su is helping you to make corrections. You have just returned from the army these few days. You are too busy, and you are coming back soon. Su only picks the important ones for approval, and waits for you to come back to deal with the unimportant ones."

Ruan Qing, "..." Well, there's nothing wrong with that, after all, Lu Su has his own affairs to attend to.

He sat in front of the case with a look of lovelessness.Is it too late to resign now?

This job lasted for a long time, until Lu Su's voice sounded, he raised his head from the pile of bamboo slips.There was a creaking sound in the neck, and there was an illusion that it was about to break.

"Go back?" Lu Su asked.

Ruan Qing looked at the sky outside the window, it was time to get off work, and he didn't rest at noon.

"No. I'll stay a little longer."

Lu Su picked up the roll of bamboo slips that had rolled down at his feet and glanced at them, and then looked at the official affairs scattered around the desk that had been corrected by Ruan Qing.

"Su went back first, and you went back earlier, you don't need to finish all these things today."

"Okay." Ruan Qing rubbed the back of her neck, squinted and smiled with a gentle face.

It wasn't until Lu Su left that he stood up, stretched his waist, and his body relaxed a lot after the spine squeaked a few times. He sighed and stood in front of the window to look out.

The weather is getting warmer and warmer, and the night time is also delayed. At this moment, Huoshaoyun has not yet come up.

Outside the window is a corridor, and outside the corridor is a flower garden.

In the past, Lu Su often poured water into it, which made the area in front of their door better than other places.

There are already butterflies at this time, and a few are flying in the flowerbed.I don't know if it's because of the region, but he always feels that the butterflies here are bigger and more beautiful than those in the north.

Just when he was in a trance, his eyes darkened, he raised his eyes, and saw Sun Ce, a doggy man.

Sun Ce probably came from one side along the long corridor. He was in the house, so he didn't see Sun Ce's figure when he came.

He just wanted to turn around and shut the door to this person, but when he thought of Lu Su's words, Annai stopped and said with a smile, "Why did Marquis Wu come here?"

Sun Ce was very surprised, he raised his eyebrows, and said in exaggerated surprise, "Mu Er is willing to take the initiative to say hello to Ce today, which is very rare."

Ruan Qing, "..." I'll hit you on the head, I'll hit you on the head, look at your look that deserves a beating, how can Zhou Yu bear your laughter, and haven't broken up with you for more than ten years.

He gave Sun Ce a blank look, turned around and walked into the room, intending to ignore the dog man.

"Is Moore turning his back and crying when he sees Ce excited?" There was a thud behind him.

It turned out that it was Sun Ce who propped up the window edge, raised his leg, crossed the doorway, and jumped in.

Ruan Qing looked up at the doggy man standing in front of her, and the veins on her forehead twitched twice, "How old is Marquis Wu now, and he still wants to jump out of the window?"

Sun Ce bent down and looked at him at the same level, his amber eyes were filled with a smile, which seemed to be hotter and brighter than the flames of the Golden Crow. cool and bright.

"How old Moore thinks Ce is, how old is Ce. How is it?"

"Hmph." Ruan Qing sneered, "Not good."

He knew he couldn't hate Sun Ce, but he didn't know why, when he saw Sun Ce's mean smile, he couldn't stop wanting to hate him.

He also wanted to ease his attitude towards the other party, after all, he was still working under his hands, but as soon as he had this idea, he remembered how Sun Ce wanted to bury his talent the year before last.Thinking about it this way, he became even more angry with Sun Ce.

Sun Ce's face froze, with a hurt look on his face, "Muer is so ruthless."

I bother!

Ruan Qing spat hard in her heart, and asked, "If Marquis Wu is fine, Qing is going to pack up and go home."

"Who says Ce is fine." Sun Ce said with Ruan Qing's attentive expression, "Mu'er went out for a year casually, it was very hard work, and preparing a special banquet today can be regarded as a clean-up for Mu'er."

Ruan Qing is not someone who likes to join in the fun, and since it was Sun Ce's invitation, she wanted to refuse without even thinking about it.

Who knew that he had just opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Sun Ce saw the timing, and blurted out, "Mu'er deserves to be rewarded."

Ruan Qing, "..." What else can I do, this bastard has blocked all escape routes.

Looking at Sun Ce's innocent expression, he tried his best to resist the urge to take off his shoes and whip someone, "Then let me bother you."

This Sun Ce really thinks highly of him, he is the only guest in a room in Nuo Da.Sun Quan was nowhere to be seen.

After taking a seat at the table, Sun Ce held up a wine bottle, "This cup is to respect Muer's one-year agreement with Ce."

Ruan Qing pursed her lips, and held up the cup with a fake smile, "This cup is also to pay homage to Marquis Wu, and the calculation is empty."

Sun Ce laughed a few times suddenly, "Mu'er knows, Ce loves the proud appearance of being so eloquent." As he spoke, he raised his head and drank the wine neatly.

Willing to gamble to lose.

At this time, Ruan Qing finally had a smile in his eyes, and drank the wine.

Putting down the wine bottle, Sun Ce greeted, "Come, come, I heard from Brother Quan that your food is not good. Ce specially ordered the kitchen to make these."

Sun Quan...doesn't know how he is doing now.

The two chatted at the table.

During the banquet, a person hurried in outside the door, dressed up as a servant, walked straight to Sun Ce, leaned into Sun Ce's ear, said something, and handed over a piece of white silk.

"Oh?" Sun Ce put down the long chopsticks in his hand, opened the white silk, and took a look, "Bring him in." Then he looked at Ruan Qing, "This time Moore caught up with the good show."

A person was pushed in from outside the house and tied up with ropes.

Ruan Qing saw that the atmosphere was not right, so she put down the long chopsticks in her hand and watched quietly.

Sun Ce didn't look at the people in the hall. He looked at Ruan Qing with a calm posture, "Muer might as well guess what crime this person has committed."

Now this posture really seems to be beating him.He quickly went through what he had done these days in his mind, but he didn't find any flaws in himself.

Ruan Qing met the other party's eyes calmly, with a helpless expression on his face, "Marquis Wu is joking, how does Qing know what this person is guilty of?"

Sun Ce raised his hand, threw the white silk he was holding onto the case, and said casually, "It's because Ce didn't think carefully, so Ce gave you some hints. Xu Gong in the past."

Ruan Qingfu moved his eyes slightly, and asked in his heart, "Is this person acquainted with Cao Cao personally?"

"That's right." Sun Ce bent his legs, put his elbows on his knees, propped his chin, and looked at him sideways, "Moore thinks, Gu, how should I punish him?"

Although the other party was still smiling faintly, Ruan Qing felt that Chu Sun Ce's mood was not as good as his expression at the moment.Sun Ce's eyes were covered with haze, as if he was about to pour down ice.

He remained motionless in the eyes full of killing intent, "Behead this person."

"Only kill him? Ke Ce thinks it's too light." Sun Ce said, "I, Jiangdong, are getting stronger and stronger, and the internal situation is gradually stable. But there are still people who dare to have an affair with Cao Cao, which shows that they don't accept my Sun family from the bottom of their hearts. See, Ce, Why don't we continue to investigate, maybe we can find out the traitor who wants to befriend Cao thief with him."

"And then?" Ruan Qing asked, "What will Marquis Wu plan to do afterwards?"

"Of course it is..." Sun Ce said lazily, a cold light flashed in his eyes, showing cruelty and viciousness, "Naturally it is the Yiqi family. Otherwise, do you want to keep him against my Sun family?"

The man kneeling on the ground in the hall was gagged, and when he heard Sun Ce's words, he suddenly became violent.

Ruan Qing glanced lightly, "Marquis Wu... don't you want to know why this person harbors ill intentions towards Mrs. Sun?"

"What secrets can there be? It's nothing more than their double-mindedness. They think that I, Sun Ce, will not be able to stabilize Jiangdong. Cao Cao is thriving in the north. They should make friends with each other earlier, so as not to delay their family's future when Cao Cao breaks through Jiangdong. These aristocratic families Whoever betrays my Sun family with evil intentions in his heart should be killed."

The family... the family again...

Ruan Qing sighed lightly, then changed his momentum, and said with righteous indignation, "What Wu Hou said is true. Wu Hou provided them with good food and drink. They don't want to contribute to Jiangdong, and they want to cheat foreign enemies. It's really abominable. Qing said that the Yi tribe is too light, not as good as the Yi tribe. The aristocratic family is already deeply intertwined, so it can act as a deterrent. Let's see who else in Jiangdong dares to have two hearts."

Sun Ce's thin lips parted slightly, raised one eyebrow, and looked at Ruan Qing in surprise.

He really didn't expect Ruan Qing to obey and support his point of view.After all, Zhou Yu had already told him so many times.It was unexpected that someone had a more intense attitude than him.

"Then... let's do it this way." Sun Ce looked at Ruan Qing with a softer gaze.

"What are you staring at? You stared out your eyes." Ruan Qing suddenly looked at the kneeling man, threatening.

The man's eyes widened, and he stared at Ruan Qing with resentment in his eyes.

"Yo." Ruan Qing laughed, "Marquis Wu took you well. You don't say you are grateful, but you still dare to collude with the enemy army. If you cut him to death, why are you dissatisfied?"

As he said that, he looked at Sun Ce, his deer eyes slightly bent, showing a bit of interest, "Wu Hou, you might as well let go of this man's mouth and see what flowers he can say. Isn't Wu Hou curious about this man's words?" What's wrong with your brain?"

"Moore said so."

Sun Ce raised his hand, motioning for the servants to take out the thing that was stuck in the man's mouth.

The man had some free time in his mouth, and immediately yelled, "Hey, you're the only one who treats me kindly, Sun Ce! You know what you've done all these years. With you around, all the clans in Jiangdong will never have a bright future..."

The man was still cursing indiscriminately, but Ruan Qing already understood the meaning.Sun Ce's face also gradually sank, and he shouted to the servants who were guarding the side, "Drag this person down and behead him!"

Hearing this, the servant hurriedly dragged the man down, not forgetting to gag the man's mouth, the sobs gradually faded away.

Ruan Qing glanced at Sun Ce quietly, only to see that the other party's thick eyebrows were slightly frowned, and the line of his jaw was tense.

He sighed silently in his heart, raised his smiling face, and held the bottle to the first seat, "You are a mere villain, don't worry about Marquis Wu, come here, I wish Marquis Wu prevent the erroneous progress, and stop it before it happens."

Sun Ce also picked up his wine glass, respected him from a distance, and drank it down in one gulp.

After drinking the whole cup, Ruan Qing breathed a sigh of relief, put down the wine bottle, and said, "Fang Caiqing suddenly remembered the game he used to play when he was a child when he was eating. Today, he will make a fool of himself and show it to Marquis Wu."

Sun Ce became interested, put one hand on his thigh to support slightly, and stretched out the other to Ruan Qing, "Muer, but it's okay to try, please."

"Wu Hou, please take a look..."

Ruan Qing tilted her head and smiled at Sun Ce, waving the dark wooden chopsticks in her hand.

These chopsticks are nothing more than ordinary. If you buy a lot of them on the street, what's so good about them?

Sun Ce looked at Mu Guang with doubts.

He stretched out the fingers of his right hand, and placed a long chopstick on it.

The long chopsticks were thinner at the front and thicker at the back, so he pushed towards the thinner section, letting out a lot, but left little at the thicker section.

The front part was overwhelmed, and the whole chopstick fell on the table with a snap.

He remained calm, picked it up again, repeated the action just now, and stretched it across his fingers, but this time there were too many back sections and too few front sections.As expected, the chopsticks fell again.

Sun Ce's eyes became more and more puzzled.But he didn't interrupt Ruan Qing and continued to watch.

Picking up the chopsticks again, Ruan Qing laid them across her fingers, this time trying to be as even as possible from left to right.The thinner part was lighter, so he moved it a little bit. After a few tries, he finally found the balance point, and a chopstick rested on his finger.

"Have you seen Marquis Wu?" Ruan Qing looked up at Sun Ce with a smile.

Sun Ce realized something, and stared at Ruan Qing's fingers with long chopsticks for a long time.It was probably because Ruan Qing found a good balance, practiced martial arts, and kept her hands steady, so the chopsticks never fell down.

The two ends of the chopsticks are like the old family of Jiangdong and other Jianghuai generals, literati who died in the north, and Sun's clan.

Maybe there are some innate priorities, but those in charge should not raise their bets at will because of their temporary likes and dislikes.Grace and punishment should be given according to the circumstances.

Otherwise, no matter which side is heavy or light, as long as the balance is lost, no matter how slow the falling speed is, there will be a day when it will overturn.

The point that supports both sides is the emperor's check and balance technique.

At this moment, there seemed to be a ray of light flashing in Sun Ce's heart, and the whole person suddenly became enlightened like Honghu empowerment.

Ruan Qing saw Sun Ce raise his eyebrows in surprise, and looked at him with bright eyes, like a flaming torch, exuding burning enthusiasm.

Standing up, Sun Ce walked up to him and reached out to grab his hands.The eyes in the pupils are fierce.He actually gave birth to the illusion that he was going to be burned by the other party.

"Mu Er's meaning, I have already known it. But please rest assured."

That's good.

Seeing that her thoughts were successfully understood by the other party, Ruan Qing's thin lips slightly curved, "Yes."

Sun Ce saw Ruan Qing smiling gently, her soft pink lips raised the gentlest arc in the world, and the hazel eyes seemed to be full of flowers, enveloping an irresistible tenderness.

It fell into his eyes, but it was beautiful and shocking, making people forget the mortal world.

He thought of what Sun Quan had told him about Ruan Qing's talent in the past year, and he recalled the wisdom Ruan Qing showed when he silently persuaded him just now.

Ruan Qing aroused his desire to conquer as a ruler.

At this moment, he heard something that had already taken root in his heart finally broke through the ground.

He wanted Ruan Qing to stay by his side not only with his body, but also with his heart.

He wants Ruan Qing to belong to him completely.
