There’s a Dragon Girl in the Desolate Sea

The first chapter of the ninety-third piece: (9)

Xu Fengyan broke with the Xiao family completely, and then the emperor sent him out to the poor mountains and rivers of Huzhou. Not to mention how desolate and uncivilized the people are, it would take three months to get from Beijing to Huzhou. Not to mention the arduous journey and life-threatening journey, Xiao naturally did not want to.

She was willing to share with Xu Fengyan, but could not share the sufferings with him. Unfortunately, after she indirectly killed Xu Qingwan, even if she was a virgin, it was impossible to reconcile with Xu Fengyan.

Xu Fengyan threw her a letter of resignation, and has never had anything to do with her ever since.

Xiao did not feel that she had done something wrong. She admitted that she was ashamed of Xu Qingwan, but it was also for Xu Qingwan's good. If not, how could she be willing to spend a lot of money on what kind of natural medicine? She had thought about it. If Xu Qingwan really gave birth to a male baby, she would have to take this medicine in the future if she and her grandfather had a confinement.

But why should Xu Fengyan want to divorce himself?

What is she doing badly? Since marrying him, taking care of his back house conscientiously, doing his filial piety for him, and even taking the initiative to give him a concubine, she has done all the things that the mother of the back house should do, without leaving a trace, why should he give her away? Obviously he didn't like her, he didn't want to make up with her, so that she was childless for several years, couldn't lift her head in front of her mother-in-law, and embarrassed her face in front of outsiders, but in the end all the mistakes were pushed on her? !

Xiao Clan couldn't listen to Xu Fengyan's words. Like Mrs. Guo Gong, she admits death and only recognizes her own reason. She is deaf to what others say. As long as she is not as good as her intentions, then she is sorry.

Even if he lives again now, Xiao still can't understand why Xu Fengyan was so ruthless to him, and why when he finally gave up her, his eyes were so indifferent and unfamiliar.

Why did she do it wrong? She doesn't think she is wrong!

After resurrecting her life, she found out that she had not married the little grandfather. This time, Xiao made up her mind that she would not agree to marry into the mansion no matter what. Isn’t it better than marrying a young father-in-law to stay alive?

But before he had time to refuse, he heard the news that the little father-in-law had married. Xiao Clan remembered in a daze. The same was true in his previous life. The little father-in-law had a fiancé, but the girl fell into the pool and drowned because of her life.

This time the girl did not die, so naturally there would be no chance for her to marry the grandfather.

Xiao's sigh of relief, and a little disappointed. In her previous life, she and the little grandpa had made a marriage, and the little grandpa had edited a book, but she thought it was a private offer. She burned it without even reading it, and asked that to deliver the letter. People went back to tell the little father-in-law, asking him to be cautious in his words and deeds, and refrain from doing things like Menglang. Later, the little father-in-law did not pass on the book again. Xiao was still complacent at the time, thinking that he had done a great job, and corrected the little father-in-law. Bad habits.

Now think about it, after he is engaged to Ms. Cui Jia, will he write to Ms. Cui Jia as he did in the past?

Today, Xiao suddenly wondered what exactly was written in the letter back then, and what the little father-in-law said in it.

In fact, if it were not for the little father-in-law to insist on completing her house until she was eighteen, he could really be said to be the gentlest and most considerate man in the world. He would never speak loudly to women, and he would be very gentle to the servants of the house, and he would never punish him physically. Beating and scolding, and talented, is really a good man envied by everyone.

It is a pity that none of these advantages are considered advantages in Xiao's view.

All day long with a good voice and a good temper with a woman, it is simply worthless, too gentle to the servant, and not aggressive enough, too soft-hearted, two people with completely different values ​​are forced to join together as a husband and wife, Xu Fengyan is no longer capable of it. Taking Xiao's point of view, in order to prevent Mrs. Guo Gong from getting trouble with Xiao's, he specifically told Mrs. Guo Gong that there was no consummation. Mrs. Guo Gong usually embarrassed his daughter-in-law. As long as Xu Fengyan was there, he would not let Xiao Clan be wronged. He even told Xiao that even parents, if they did the wrong thing, said the wrong thing, they could resist.

As a result, Xiao clan persuaded his all-in-the-world parents to be filial and sensible.

The two were persuading each other, and the result was that no one could succeed. However, Xu Fengyan had many things to do besides marriage. He did not want to live up to this brand new life. He wanted to do more for the people of this era, and for those Love is only a small part of his life for the people who are undressed. If you can't get it, then don't force it. He is willing to let go, but Xiao is not willing to give up. The marriage of the two is in vain. .

Between people, we still have to pay attention to fate.

Xiao's life was alive again, and he couldn't marry the little father-in-law, so she hit the old brother-in-law Wei Shaoyuan. She felt that Xu Qingwan had a dead body and two lives in the previous life, and he could not leave Wei Shaoyuan with a son and a half daughter. Xu Qingwan's fate is not good, since that's the case, it's better to bear this fate for Xu Qingwan.

However, even if Xiao clan had the opportunity to live a new life, he still couldn't get Wei Shaoyuan's love-he still fell in love with Xu Qingwan at first sight.

It's not that you do it again, you can get whatever you want.

After this, Miss Wei Jia married, but she was not married to someone from the previous life. This made Xiao feel very strange. There was a Miss Cui who did not drown but married the little father-in-law. Now there is another married woman. With Miss Wei from another person, Xiao Clan couldn't figure out what was going on.

Later, something that Xiao Clan didn't understand even happened, and the emperor actually dispatched Xu Fengyan a year in advance!

That is, before Xu Fengyan left, Xu Qingwan married out, ten miles of red makeup, and Xu Fengyan wanted to send out, so he must not bring his unmarried sister. He said that he had gone away for several years, and kept his sister. God knows Mrs. Guo's brain. What can I do when I am confused, so it is safer to marry Wanwan. However, he also had three chapters with Wei Shaoyuan. Wanwan was not 18 years old and he was not allowed to touch him. Wei Shaoyuan also agreed that the three rooms of the Wei family were all easy to get along with. After Wei Jichen married, the third wife was very good. Lonely, Xu Qingwan was gentle and considerate, and the two of them were like mother and daughter. Xu Qingwan was reluctant to bear her brother and sister-in-law, and she cried into tears on the day of seeing off.

Mrs. Guo Gong originally wanted to struggle again. Her daughter was married and her son was sent abroad. She wanted Xu Fengyan to keep Linglong on the grounds that there was no one around her. She didn’t mind if her son was traveling alone. State, accept ten or eight concubines, no matter how many!

In short, she was just afraid of leaving, and her daughter-in-law completely held her son's heart in her hands, so wouldn't she have nothing left?

But Xu Fengyan said, you asked Linglong to stay, what can she do for you? The spoiled daughter, is she better at serving people than her servants? That being the case, if so many people are required to do anything, it's all for sale!

He yelled at Mrs. Guo Gong so angry, she couldn't get up in bed, even Xu Fengyan didn't show up on the day of departure, and she was angry and refused to come to see off.

Xu Fengyan didn't care either.

Although the capital is good, he has lofty ambitions and is unwilling to be a cornerstone. He wants to make some achievements. Only when he is in a high position can he control the right to speak and control the right to speak, and he will have the opportunity to change this country and society.

Before setting off, he and Linglong worked out the shock absorber for the carriage, mainly for the convenience of travel. He could ride a horse by himself, but then it would be boring for his wife to ride a carriage alone, and riding a horse would easily break his thighs. Xu Feng swears, Sooner or later, he will build cement roads everywhere in this country! Never let the carriage be so bumpy again!

Huzhou has a vast territory, but there are a lot of mountain people, and it is also very exclusive. The local wealthy country gentry is like a closed mussel, united and difficult to deal with, and there are many mountain bandits. The poorest and most broken place in the country is none other than this. After a long journey to the Xunzhou government, it was a big government office, and even the plaque was broken by several corners. It was almost sad to see and tears, and it was amazingly poor.

The Zhouya was even more broken and ventilated. The poor Yaya station at the door was exhausted, and there were huge dark circles. Not to mention the sanitary environment. Xu Fengyan and Linglong happened to have heavy rain a few days before they arrived. The road is muddy, and there are many excrements, including animals and humans. The appearance of the city is extremely poor, and the air is filled with a particularly unpleasant sour smell.

Linglong covered her mouth and nose with her kerchief, and she looked at Xu Fengyan gleefully: "Little father-in-law has a long way to go. This place hasn't been managed in five or six years?"

Xu Fengyan also had a headache. He just opened the carriage curtain and looked out, but it was better not to look at it. There were beggars everywhere, so many people were staggering. He almost suspected that this was not the Huizhou Mansion, but the Beggar Gang base. Think about it, this is the case even in state capitals, and the following towns and counties are so poor!

The horse-drawn carriage stopped at the gate of the government office. At first, the servants on duty at the gate didn't take it seriously, until they saw someone coming down and they were dressed well, so they asked.

Knowing that the new Master Zhizhou was here, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute. Xu Fengyan didn't love these vain things, waved his hand to let them dismiss the courtesy, rejected the servant who wanted to take the carriage, and stretched out his hand to help Linglong down.

When I saw Linglong, the yamen were all dumbfounded! In this poor country, no one has ever seen such a fairy-like woman! A girl with fair skin can be regarded as a beauty!

Oops, the newly appointed Master Zhizhou Yanfu is not superficial. He actually brought such a big beauty to take office. It is estimated that, like the previous ones, he is here to make soy sauce, and he will be transferred after a long time.

Linglong got out of the carriage and stepped on the stone bricks, not polite: "It's too dirty here, isn't it just a few days after taking office as Zhizhou? Why is the sanitation here so bad? Are the government officials too lazy?"

Xiaoque Xiaodie followed her, and Changyue Changxing commanded people to unload the things on the carriage. They had to wait for several years to come back to Xunzhou, but they brought a lot of things. Xu Fengyan didn’t care if he was rough. Before crossing, he had not suffered any hardships in order to make a movie, and he could insist on even the most difficult conditions. However, the man suffered by himself and did not say that his woman should eat with him, so he not only brought so much luggage with him. No objection, but still very supportive.

The facts proved that it was right. Linglong even brought bottles and cans. Although she was on the way for the past three months, she had the right to travel at public expense.

Linglong immediately began to support people. Anyway, so many yamen don't need to be used for nothing, and they have to give them monthly money every month!

After entering the mansion, the space inside is not small, the front hall is in tatters, and the backyard is not much better. Apart from not leaking the rain, there is almost no good place. There are many repair marks on the roof. I want to live before I come. People here often feel headaches for this house.

The sky was clear, and the only thing that comforted Xu Fengyan was that the Zhouya was paved with stone bricks. Heavy rain only made the ground cleaner, not as muddy as the road outside.

The luggage was first placed in the corridor and yard. Xu Fengyan led people into the house, first cleaned out some unused things, and then cleaned it again. Regardless of other things, the accommodation environment must be good, and no one can bitter his wife.

Linglong shook his hand at the shopkeeper throughout the whole process, evoking a set of sets. There are a lot of old furniture left before, and some dead spots that have not been cleaned. There are still bugs in the bedroom!

Xu Fengyan had people lit the insect repellent and smoked the entire house. The windows were opened for ventilation. Fortunately, the room was well lit, and the sunlight came in and it felt much brighter.

After cleaning, the luggage was moved inside. The originally bare backyard quickly became bright and full of life. Linglong also brought flowers, otherwise the bare yard looked so spicy!

Everything was cleaned up, and Xu Fengyan was also exhausted. He was not in a hurry. First, let someone boil the water, take a bath with Linglong and change clean clothes. The cook went into the kitchen and made a table of dishes, eating and drinking. Careful about business affairs.

There are not many people in the prefecture, but they are not too few. In short, it is still enough. No one knows what Xu Feng said, but no one is in it during working hours. You can imagine how scattered people are in this place, and they have no career at all. Morality and consciousness are just thinking about it, not wanting to count it. Anyway, staying at home is no different from being in a government office. It's the same thing to do. It's just a few dollars a month.

The duty office is the hardest, but no matter how hard it is, it means standing at the door. Xuzhou is poor and barren, and there is no one to complain. Everyone has the mentality of living by living, living today, and talking about tomorrow's things tomorrow.

Generally speaking, the people of Huzhou don't have that kind of spirit, and one is more depressed than the other.

After dinner, Xu Fengyan learned that the master book in the government office was not there, and was not angry, and invited Linglong to go out together.

Good guy, I don’t know if I go out. As soon as I go out, the beggars all squatted at the entrance of the Yanzhou government office! When you go out, it is a bunch of hands stretched out, shouting grandma and grandma to do a good job. I haven’t eaten for a long time. I look at each of them and look yellow and thin. But when I look closely, most of them are grown-ups. Man, still the kind of adult man who doesn't seem to have missing arms or legs!

In short, it's all lazy.

Xu Fengyan felt that the city of Huzhou could be renamed Beggar City altogether.

Before he came, he had done his homework and knew that the poor mountains and rivers in Huzhou are not suitable for growing rice. The annual output is extremely low. The people can't eat enough, and many people become beggars. But this is only the beginning. Later, Many ordinary people don’t want to farm anymore. Everyone begs for a meal, and there is no meal. Anyway, you have to stutter in the sun all day long. If you want to get it, you can eat. No longer hungry when you fall asleep.

This amazing idea opened Xu Fengyan's eyes.

Linglong said: "If you think about a good place, it's not bad if it's poor, indicating that there is a lot of room for improvement."

Isn't that right?

Xu Fengyan held her hand, this place, it's okay if it doesn't rain, and it's hard to get away when it rains.

He took Linglong to visit a few stores. The things in the store are not interesting or fun, and the quality is not good. The colors and styles in the jewelry store are not known how many years ago they were eliminated from the capital, but they are here. It's still a popular model of the fire, many people can only look at it greedy, and can't afford it.

The food in the restaurant is not good, and the taste is not good and the presentation is not good.

In short, the entire city of Huzhou has a sense of depression.

Although Xu Fengyan did not announce his arrival with great fanfare, he is after all the Zhizhou of the Emperor’s Qin Sect. He is different from the other assignments. He was assigned. When he saw this place, his heart was cold, and he just wanted to hurry. If you leave after your term of office, you will not tear your face with the local gentry. Everyone is acquiesced. I will benefit you. If you don't look for me, you will be in peace with each other.

But the Qin faction was different, which showed that the emperor no longer allowed the development of Hanzhou as before, but had some other ideas.

Especially this Xinzhizhou, well-informed person, had already learned that he was of extraordinary origin. Not only was he named in front of the emperor, he was also the son of Zhenguo, and was a high school champion. He also did a lot of practical things in the Imperial Academy.

It stands to reason that he should be a pragmatist, but on the day I arrived in Hanzhou, there were many carriages and luggage. I heard that there was a stunning beauty with me, and I don’t know if it’s the original wife. .

This is a bit of a contradiction. People don't understand what kind of person Xu Fengyan is. Does he come to Xunzhou to have a mix of qualifications, or do he want to do practical things?

The former is easy to handle, and everyone cooperates easily, while the latter is different.

Although Xuzhou is poor, the poor are ordinary people. Rich tycoons are still not a minority. Because of the poverty and difficult governance, they have become local snakes, and all Zhizhou who come here have to worship them on the dock. How could they give up on such a day like the earth emperor? If Xu Fengyan touched their interests, these people would get used to being arrogant, and they might be able to do something terrible.

Xu Fengyan was so real. I didn't expect that when he arrived in the Hanzhou government office in the morning, he couldn't see the shadows of other subordinates in the evening!

He complained to Linglong as he ate, "This group of people is the emperor Tiangao who is used to staying far away, and they have forgotten their surnames! If this is in the capital, I am afraid that the emperor will have his home ransacked!"

Xuzhou is poor, and most of the houses are earthen huts. Therefore, the magnificent squire houses are more conspicuous. Some of the houses built are not inferior to those in the capital.

"Isn't this not in the capital?" Linglong took a bite of the meat. "Don't worry if they don't come. Anyway, you can sit still and see who can sit still."

To put it bluntly, the government officials who are in charge, do not know that the new prefecture has arrived? They are deaf, and they should have received news from this day. They just gave Xu Fengyan a slap in the face!

He was young. Although he was awarded the post of Zhizhou, which seemed to be promoted, he was sent to Xunzhou. It would be better to continue his qualifications in the Imperial Academy! As for his identity, Lord Zhen Guo is very powerful, but no one has seen how powerful he is, and those who don't know are fearless, that's the truth.

These people are using this attitude to express their position.

Xu Fengyan nodded: "Don't worry, I'll be able to sit still. After all, I'm a person who has been in dire straits for a year in high school. I still have this qualitative point."

Linglong picked him a piece of radish, which she didn't like to eat.

Xu Fengyan glanced at her, ate the radish, and gave her a piece of meat. The two had dinner while talking and laughing. Xiaoquexiaodie Changyue Changxing also changed shifts. In short, no one was impatient and still had a leisurely life. day.

I changed a new bed at night. Although it is a bit smaller than the bed in the Guogongfu, the small bed has the advantage of a small bed. It is more comfortable for two people to hug together. Xu Fengyan puts his arms around his wife, feeling that one heart is warm. Yes, if Linglong didn’t accompany him, he would definitely not be as calm as he is now. He originally thought that the conditions in Xunzhou were so bad, or let her stay in the capital. Suffering, and Wanwan helped to take care of it, but Linglong was actually willing to come with him, which really moved and surprised Xu Fengyan.

You must know that this is the ancient times with extremely underdeveloped transportation environment. Unlike modern times, you can buy a plane ticket or high-speed rail ticket and take a nap up to the destination. They walked from Beijing to Hanzhou for more than three months. This is already fast! In other words, it takes half a year to go back and forth.

Think about how squeamish she can stand such a harsh environment? But she really came, Xu Fengyan couldn't help but kissed Linglong's cheek, hoarsely: "Thank you for following me."

Linglong yawned, and interrupted his feelings very incomprehensibly: "Go to bed early, tomorrow you have to get up early."

Xu Fengyan muttered: "It's up to you, anyway, those people won't come on time as errands. Why can't I, Master Zhizhou, sleep late? I'm going to sleep!"

It's kind of headstrong.

Even though he said so, he still had a heavy sense of responsibility. When he got up early the next morning, Linglong simply followed him. Xu Fengyan said in surprise, "Are you not going to sleep today?"

Linglong Bai glanced at him: "Who am I for? You need to know how to be grateful, understand?"

Xu Fengyan laughed. The two had breakfast after freshening up, and then went to the file room together. Today, they did nothing. They read these files before talking. In this way, you can learn a lot about Xunzhou.

It was about noon when Xiao Que came to call for someone to eat, but she didn't see anyone else's shadow.

No matter how good Xu Fengyan's temper is, it won't be so good at the moment. He sneered and said, "Everyone has the courage, just right, Changxing, help me post this!"

In his hand, it was a job posting that had just been written.
