Back Off, Let Me Come

This is the truth, and Luan Xin naturally understands it.

But he had one more question to ask.

"Wang Chao is so good at making opinions, don't you worry that one day they will come back to bite you?" When Luan Xin asked this question, his expression was calm, but his dark eyes were filled with incomprehensible complexity, "Criticizing you A sycophant who is good at flattery and flattery?"

Gu Chi smiled casually and said, "What about the sycophant?"

This rhetorical question almost stunned Luan Xin.

After thinking carefully, he came to the conclusion that as long as Gu Chi didn't care about his reputation, being criticized as a sycophant really couldn't cause any harm to him, and he could even live a good life. Is this the evaluation of the current generation, let alone the evaluation of future generations?

"The cunning rabbit is dead, the running dogs are cooked, the birds are gone, and the good bow is hidden." Luan Xin looked directly into Gu Chi's eyes for a moment, not allowing him to dodge or hide, and said sonorously, "Watch the tide and don't be afraid of a sunset like this. The end? The end of a sycophant is never good."

Gu Chi smiled: "Are you worried about Zhengyi?"

Luan Xin did not give an answer.

Gu Chi didn't care either.

He actually made a surprising statement: "Can't a dead rabbit be cooked like a dog?"

Luan Xin's pupils were shaking: "???"

"The world is settled, and the advisers are dead. If so, it is a good omen for the rabbit to die and the dog to be cooked. Righteousness, having such a scribe is not what I want. If one day we really end up with the end of the bird, it will be the best time, Fate." Gu Chi's eyebrows were no longer depressed, only open-minded and relaxed, with a trace of smile appearing in his eyes, "Besides, she is the master and will not do this."

Luan Xin only thought this sentence was absurd and funny.

How naive is this?

He couldn't believe that these words came from Gu Chi.

Luan Xin said quietly: "You can't see through people's hearts by looking at the tide."

Gu Chi retorted: "It's Zhengyi who can't understand the Lord."

Luan Xin: "..."

He probably didn't expect that Gu Chi would be Shen Tang's biggest fan. Putting aside whether he would eat this Amway or not, Luan Xin wanted to know the answer very much now. He asked: "Gu Wangchao, so it is said that the matter of Wen Yangong was also authorized by you?"

Gu Chi pretended to be stupid and said: "What?"

Luan Xin: "Did you order Wen Yangong's death?"

Gu Chi said with an innocent look: "Wen Yangong committed suicide, how could it be that it was Chi who ordered it? You can't just kill a few soldiers who violated military discipline just because Chi made an independent decision, and then blame him for something that couldn't be done with eight poles. Chitou is so unjust."

Luan Xin's expression clearly showed disbelief.

He suddenly mentioned something: "I believe I heard something - that day when we attacked Xiaocheng, it was you who ordered the cold arrows to be fired at Gongxi Qiu!"

Taking a closer look, Gu Chixia has a lot of evil hands.

Gu Chi clasped his hands in his sleeves and said confidently: "Why don't you ask for justice? That day, Chi ordered Shusheng to assassinate Gong Xiqiu, but Wen Yangong on the city wall also ordered people to shoot cold arrows at the lord. If it weren't for Gong Xiqiu's gang, Block it..."

Speaking of this, Gu Chi felt a toothache.

The two of them help each other catch cold arrows in front of the formation. No matter how you look at it, it is outrageous. If you don't say it is unprecedented, at least it is unprecedented.

Gu Chi failed to achieve his goal and even made a mess.

Luan Xin understood: "So you have murderous intentions?"

Gu Chi didn't understand, and asked: "Why is Zhengyi so sure that Chi did this? Wen Yangong committed suicide, and Wen Yangong's wife can prove it. It's obvious that he was afraid of the Qiu family's elder Qiu settling the accounts, and he was panic-stricken and frightened. Those who draw their swords and kill themselves out of fear..."

Luan Xin naturally wouldn't believe it.

"On the day when the ransom money arrives, you order someone to send a message to Wen Yangong - 'The Qiu family has sent the ransom money, and they will send someone to escort Wen Yangong and his family there tomorrow.' Gu Wangchao, can you explain this? What does 'tomorrow' mean?"

Gu Chi looked calm on the surface, but secretly his scalp was slightly numb.

He didn't expect that Luan Xin would be able to detect the clues when he was acting so secretly, but Qiu Cheng and other former ministers were not aware of it at all. He continued innocently: "Isn't tomorrow the same as tomorrow? How come it has become the irrefutable evidence that Chi Zhizhi ordered Wen Yangong to be forced to death in Zhengyi's mouth?"

Luan Xin: "It was precisely because of the urgency of time that he misled Wen Yangong into thinking that the Qiu clan chief would persecute him. He guessed that he was sent not only ransom money, but also a urging letter. With such a hint, he would draw his sword and kill himself in fear. Gu Wangchao , yes or no?”

Gu Chi: "..."

When it came to this, he stopped pretending and showed his cards.

Anyway, he helped the lord take more than one blame.

One more person wouldn't be able to suppress him.

The curve at the corner of Gu Chi's lips disappeared little by little, replaced by a cold and ruthless expression: "Yes! So what? Zhengyi thinks Chi did something wrong? Wen Yangong shot the lord in front with a cold arrow!"

Luan Xin clenched his hands in his sleeves: "He has lost. There is no possibility of a comeback if he is sent back to the Qiu family. He will not pose any threat to the lord at all. He asked for ransom money and forced people to die. Wang Chao was not afraid of the revelation, but was implicated. Lord’s reputation?”

Gu Chi has a very bachelor attitude.

"If that day comes, I should apologize."

Gu Chi glanced at Luan Xin out of the corner of his eye and quickly looked back.

Tsk, you can finally understand where Luan Xin's heart is.

He is not afraid of enmity, but he is afraid that he will not know when the enmity will be forged. Like Qiu Wenyan, he will die in confusion.

"In his position, he seeks his position." Gu Chi straightened his back and spoke eloquently, "Yiyi should understand this truth better than me! I look at the tide and act with no regrets in my life. If Zhengyi wants to seek revenge for his old master, You can let your horse come over here!”

Whoever gives in first will be the grandson!

Luan Xin spat out word by word: "Gu! Chi!"

Gu Chiyun said calmly: "Chi can't say that he will definitely win, but it doesn't matter if he loses. Anyway, there is only one person in the whole family. Even if he is completely defeated and his family is exterminated, he will only have one life!"

See, there are advantages to being a bachelor, you can act without any worries.

The advantage is currently with him, so there is no need to panic.

Luan Xin didn't know whether to be angry or relieved when he saw Gu Chi acting like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water.

Wen Yangong was kind to him, and he helped plan for several years to repay his kindness, and after getting along with him, he also had some feelings for him. The other party is not a very good lord, but he is not a failure either. In his opinion, Wen Yangong's defeat was the general trend and an inevitable event in this world. The difference was sooner or later, but he would not lose his life.

It had been suspected that the lord Shen Tang was responsible.

Luan Xin was tested again and again, and testing inevitably required long-term contact and communication with Shen Tang, and even heart-to-heart conversations. He admitted that he was shaken in the process, and even found reasons for himself uncontrollably. Qiu Cheng's death was not caused by her...

When the truth came to light, he no longer had to waver, let alone face the difficult question of how to make a choice as Shen Tang was the murderer.

Luan Xin: "Sooner or later you will suffer the consequences."

Literary scholars should not trust anyone with all their heart.

It was Shen Tang who was the first to realize that Luan Xin and Gu Chi were getting along, just one day apart. Guess how she knew? Gu Chi, who was still harassing people at Luan Xin's house on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, came over to her single partner on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year and started barking at each other: "Did you guys break up?"

Shen Tang was hiding and preparing to cook a small hot pot.

When Gu Chi came over, she could only bear the pain and divide half of it out.

But for two people, you need to prepare additional ingredients.

The meat slices on the table were all cut by her.

The pieces are crystal clear. You can pick them up and put them on the bottom of the prepared pot to rinse them in a few seconds. The taste is absolutely fresh and tender.

She also made shrimp paste, peeling the shrimp by herself and pounding the shrimp meat by herself. When Gu Chi came over, Shen Tang was carrying two silver-white copper maces weighing about 100 kilograms, beating a piece of pork rhythmically. It was originally supposed to be beef, but cattle were rare, and Shen Tang didn't want to make the cattle lame or go crazy and die just for the sake of a temporary appetite... so he made do with pork.

Gu Chi put his hands in his sleeves, waiting for the ready-made food.

He said: "What do you mean by breaking up?"

Shen Tang: "We're not breaking up. You're still eating, drinking and staying at his house right now. Or is he unable to bear it and kicking you out?"

Gu Chi almost choked.

"Conscience of heaven and earth, Chi clearly suffered an unreasonable disaster for his lord!" He didn't just eat and drink, he was obviously on guard against Luan Xin and wanted to get more information. Everything is for the sake of the lord, but it is good for her to do so at her own expense.

Shen Tang pounded the pork while listening attentively.

After listening to Gu Chi, she put down her ace.

Wash your hands carefully, put the beaten meat into a copper basin, shape out round meat balls, and put them one by one into the broth prepared by the chef. Xingfen responded: "That's it. No wonder Zhengyi always looks awkward. I tried several times but couldn't pry his mouth open. I didn't expect that he discovered the clues about the death of the old rookie Sepi... It was indeed I acted carelessly and showed my flaws. However, you can't be considered to have suffered an unreasonable disaster by looking at the tide. Who wrote 'die' on the palm of your hand at that time?"

Shen Tang wrote it, and so did Gu Chi.

The two of them worked together, and no one was innocent.

Gu Chi almost had a heart attack: "Lord!"

They are not innocent, but the hatred is on him!

"Master, aren't you worried about Chi?"

Shen Tang smiled and said: "Why are you worried? He has already stepped down for you. Isn't that the saying 'you will suffer the consequences sooner or later'?"

Luan Xin believed that Gu Chi would kill himself sooner or later if he acted like this. There was no need to make plans at all, he could just add fuel to the flames at the critical moment, and his attitude towards revenge was quite negative.

Furthermore——

Shen Tang smiled and said: "Don't worry, Wangchao, I'll protect you!"

In fact, without covering up, Gu Chi would be unlikely to fall behind.

Gu Chi couldn't help but said sourly: "...My lord, you can really rest assured. If Luan Gongyi hadn't convicted Chi by mistake yesterday, then sooner or later this debt would have fallen on the lord. With such a hidden danger, the lord is actually Not worried at all..."

How much does the Lord like Luan Gongyi!

"worry about what?"

"Worried about his disloyalty."

"I don't mind whether he is loyal or not. To put it more clearly, it doesn't matter where his heart is, it's where his body is. So what about spiritual betrayal? As long as you can't make mistakes in what you do." Shen Tang smiled openly, " He was still shaken."

Gu Chi: "???"

Shen Tang said: "You have only been with me for more than a month before you are shaken. After all these years, how can you still have different intentions? Even if the old rookie Sepi is really dead, how can a dead person fight against a living person? Moreover, Wang Chao doesn't think it's like this. Is it extremely interesting for a character who attaches great importance to love and justice to struggle for himself and fall into the quagmire of worldly emotions? Even if he betrays me, he will suffer endless suffering in his heart..."

The more emotional you are, the easier it is to be swayed by your emotions.

Gu Chi: "...I sympathize with Luan Gongyi."

The previous protagonist was a scumbag, and it was obvious that he was a scumbag.

The current protagonist is a scumbag, and she is so scumbag that no one can guard against her.

"...Maybe Chi should pity himself first."

Shen Tang has prepared the hot pot ingredients.

He smiled and said: "Fresh hot pot, I apologize to you."

Shen Tang asked Dong Chu to prepare two kinds of pot bases early in the morning, one mushroom soup and one spicy soup, with as many seasonings as possible.

Gu Chi knows mushroom soup, but not spicy soup. After carefully identifying it, he said, "Master, how do you add the fragrant powder to the soup?"

There are chili peppers nowadays, but they are mostly ground into powder and used as fragrant powder. Shen Tang accidentally discovered this from Shen Zhi.

Shen Tang explained: "This is chili pepper. Drinking it can warm you up, but if you have a bad stomach, you should avoid touching it as it can easily make chrysanthemums spicy."

After hearing so many thoughts from Shen Tang, Gu Chi knew the other meaning of chrysanthemum. He immediately twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, still wanting to die. He chose the spicy soup and took a tentative sip. In an instant, the spiciness rushed straight to his brain. The tip of his tongue felt hot, painful and numb, and a ball of fire rushed down his throat to his internal organs. He coughed for a while and felt better after drinking the goat milk Shen Tang handed him.

"If you're not used to it, try changing the bottom of the pot."

Gu Chi refused: "No."

While being so hot that my eyes were blurry, I was getting excited.

Shen Tang: "..."

Shrimp noodles and pork balls are Gu Chi’s favorites.

He enjoyed the hotpot at Shen Tang's side for several days. From the fifth to the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, he successfully experienced what chrysanthemum fire is.

On the eighth day of the lunar month, the official office was unsealed, but Gu Chi was nowhere to be seen.

When Qi Shan asked, Shen Tang said: "I ate too much spicy hot pot and got a stomachache, so I asked for half a day's sick leave early."

Love food and food.

Qishan: "..."

Luan Xin: "..."

After work started, everyone was even busier.

Those who are strong will basically start with half-heartedness.

The lord Shen Tang took the lead.

After all, there is not much time left for them.

The first priority is spring plowing. If it is delayed, it means that the harvest of Sibao County this year will be affected. The sharp drop in field taxes is only one of them. What is more serious is that the food pressure will increase and more people will starve to death. Without food, many things will not be possible.

This is not what Shen Tang wants to see.

Everyone also knew that she valued farming and did not dare to delay.

Hurry up and hurry up, some things finally come to an end before spring plowing.

For example, field records, planning, land reclamation... Luan Xin and Gu Chi were still cooperating on this matter, and no one looked at them well at that time. For example, the nationwide physical examination is conducted by Dr. Dong and Luan Xin, and the selected good seedlings are sent to Longwu.

Another example is the optimization and experimental planting of cotton seeds. With the buffs of Shen Zhi and Lin Feng, it took more than 150 generations to finally obtain a batch of relatively stable drought-resistant and large-boll cotton seeds. Other varieties are still there. In the experiment, there are also some clues. The quality alone is fine, but when combined with one cotton seed, the progress is not ideal. Luan Xin was also involved in this matter.

He has to go on duty at the government office every few days.

Luan Xin felt that [Half-heartedness] was not enough.

The second is to prepare for war.

Prepare the food, fodder and soldiers needed for the expedition.

Who goes into battle and who stays behind to look after the house needs to be considered.

Shen Tang didn't want to think about it so early, but——

"Huang Lie sent a letter informing us of the time for the rendezvous. It seems that he wants to make a final push."

_(:з　∠)_

Shiitake thought he was an expert at staying up late, but he didn't expect Leather Jacket to be an expert at it. He stayed up until six in the morning yesterday without crying or making a fuss, just Aba Aba, his old mother couldn't bear it...
