Uncle Liang and I sympathized with each other and talked about each other, and most of the hours passed unconsciously. I listened carefully to some of his suggestions and advice, and kindly invited him to come directly to the Xuanfu embassy at any time to meet me and discuss the great plan for governing Yunnan.

After saying goodbye to Liang Shutong, a few of us inspected all over Ningzhou, and saw that the notices of the people were plastered everywhere, and the people no longer locked their doors and closed their doors, and they had recovered some vitality slightly, so they returned to the Xuanfu Embassy in the evening.

I told Lin Yi about my encounter with Liang Shutong, and Lin Yi was also deeply pleased. Through the case of Liang Shutong, it can be seen that the appearance of the local influential gentry, word of mouth, is quite effective and more convincing in stabilizing the hearts of local scholars, which is a good way to get twice the result with half the effort and achieve immediate results, and should be vigorously promoted in the future.

It was already dark, and it was drizzling outside the door. It is said that Yunnan should have plenty of rain in this season, but it has been more than a month since I came to this world, and it has only rained three inconspicuous times from the primeval forest of Wumeng Mountain to Ningzhou.

After asking Lin Yi, I learned that since last year, the rain in Yunnan has been much less than in previous years, and this year the rain is even more scarce, and the drought situation in the fields is very serious, if this situation continues, this year's grain harvest is likely to be greatly reduced. Originally, Yunnan was counting on the grain output here in Ningzhou, and the life of the common people has been difficult, if there is no more ration, this year's situation is really unimaginable.

Moreover, it is said that there has been no decent rain in the southern Sichuan region in the north for more than a year, and after two consecutive years of drought, there is no harvest in the fields of the common people, and life is already quite difficult. South Sichuan and Yunnan are close neighbors, the situation in the two miles is not much different, this year Yunnan has followed in the footsteps of South Sichuan, the situation is not optimistic!

I only sighed when I heard it, southern Sichuan is the territory of Shu, not under the jurisdiction of our Han Dynasty, no matter how long our hands are, we can't reach there, I'm afraid it won't help much. And it's not easy to say here in Yunnan, in this rainy season in previous years, seeing the abnormal decrease in rain, the drought situation continues to develop, once Ningzhou's grain production is out of production, more than 100,000 people are waiting to be fed, I, Yunnan's parents and officials, but where to get food for them!

It was already very late at night, and Lian Jun and others had already gone to rest in the wings on both sides, and only He Shoujie, Lin Yi, Lin Tong, Le Meng and others took turns to accompany me to continue working. Lin Yi persuaded me more than once to go back to the back house to rest early, and said that it was as if I had moved to the back house of the Xuanfu Embassy, let me go back to bathe and change clothes and sleep well, so that I would have the energy to deal with more things tomorrow.

Although I had this idea, I still had a lot of concerns when it came to the end.

I have met with Wanru today, although I have a feeling of shock, but after all, it is the concubine of Li Yi, the champion of the family, and I don't want to have any wrong thoughts.

It's just that what makes me embarrassed is that such a young, beautiful, gentle and virtuous woman suddenly knows that she has lost her husband who used to get along day and night, this kind of blow is very cruel and fatal.

Of course, I can't tell her that I'm an impostor, and no one will believe me if she says something like this. Alas! Wrong may be the best way to do it at the moment, so I can only continue this well-intentioned deception, and I can't tell her the truth no matter what!

It's just that I've already sent someone to invite me a few times, and I can't leave under the pretext that I'm busy.

At this time, I always have a feeling of being a thief, completely unprepared in my mind, and if I rush back to the inner house, when I really face it, no one knows what unpredictable things will happen.

Although I and the champion Li Yi are quite similar in appearance, almost fake, but there are slight differences in height, and the differences are even more obvious in some subtleties.

So, I had to prepare some appropriate excuses to convince her to believe in my change, or to use the passage of time to eliminate this sense of difference. In the last few days, I can completely excuse her with the excuse of being busy with official business, and I believe that this woman who understands righteousness has no reason to object.

Alas! I couldn't think of any good ideas for a while, and I really didn't have enough courage to deceive this kind and helpless woman, so I was still hesitating. There is no good way to think about it, and how to get along in the future can only go with the flow'.

Of course, since there are indeed many affairs in Yunnan today, it is also necessary for me to keep abreast of the current situation in Yunnan, so I have been busy checking various archives of Yunnan in the study behind the council room.

And Lin Yi, He Shoujie and others have been accompanying me to sort out the documents and files outside the study, until the physical strength is almost unbearable, and the two of them lie on the bookcase with their clothes to take a nap.

And my energy and physical strength are obviously much more vigorous than the two of them, but my body is not always iron, because I have been too tired in the last two days, I finally can't stand it, and I unknowingly fall asleep on the bookcase.

I don't know how long I was confused, I suddenly subconsciously felt something strange, I was quite alert and quickly opened my eyes, a pretty face appeared in front of me with a smile, rubbed my eyes and looked carefully, isn't it that beautiful and dignified, gentle and lovely Wanru.

She was carefully draping my clothes on my body, and when she saw that I woke up, she said softly: "Official, you are too tired these days, you have worked hard for so long, and you should go back and have a good rest." What's more, the robe on your body is already dirty, it's really unorthodox, you should change into it! ”

Hearing this, I felt a little embarrassed and a little embarrassed, so I had to pretend to rub my eyes, stretch my waist and stand up and said vaguely: "Lady don't worry about me, although I have survived for a few days, I am physically and mentally happy after quelling the rebellion, and I don't feel tired at all." Hehe! Now the situation in Yunnan is still unstable, and after these few days are busy, I will naturally go back to rest, as if, these days have made you feel full, and you are not lightly tired, I think you should go back and have a good rest! Don't get up at night and get cold. ”

As if hearing my words of concern, he smiled charmingly and said, "Officials don't have to worry about concubines, I'm in good health!" It's just that you don't pay much attention to yourself, and you say that you are not tired, and you fall asleep without even covering your clothes, how can you deal with government affairs if you get cold? Official, since you are busy with affairs, you can't go back to rest, and the concubine doesn't force you. It's just that you can put on this official robe first, and I'll take the one on my body back and wash it, it's all dirty and not decent. ”

I had no choice but to smile gratefully at her and whispered: "Okay, how dare I refuse the lady's kindness, I'll just change my clothes, you don't have to wait for me, it's better to go back and rest quickly, so as not to alarm others." ”

After speaking, I smiled embarrassedly, and was about to take off my dirty robe by myself, as if I had already come closely, and took it off for me flexibly, and did not forget to complain: "You are also a local governor, you always want face, if you wear such dirty clothes all day long, your prestige is completely lost, and others don't laugh at you behind your back?" I'm afraid that I will accuse the concubine of not being thoughtful in waiting? ”

I obediently cooperated with her to change the robe, and said with a smile: "Madame has a life, dare not obey, this robe is made so well, it is really Mrs. Lao." ”

In fact, you don't need to ask to know that this new robe must be made according to the figure of the champion Li Yi, although there is a certain margin, but to be honest, it is still a little narrow, and it feels uncomfortable to wear it. But I was afraid that she would be suspicious, but I didn't dare to say it blatantly.

Even though I deliberately covered it up, I quickly discovered the problem, frowned, and said puzzledly: "Hey! How so? It's so weird! I obviously made this dress according to your body shape, and you have tried it on before, why does it look so narrow now? What's going on here? ”

Seeing that her doubts had increased greatly, I hurriedly covered it up and said, "It's like, in fact, during this period of time, I also feel some changes in my body, and some things I ...... I have to say that during the time we were apart, a lot of strange things happened and some things that were difficult to explain. It's just that... It's just that it's not convenient to explain it now, and when I have time in a few days, I'll tell you in detail, listen to me, you better go back and rest quickly, the day is about to dawn. ”

"Hmm!" As if she had promised but did not have the slightest intention of moving her footsteps, her foolish gaze wandered over my face, as if she wanted to find something from me, and under her puzzled glances, my heart suddenly felt a little nervous, and I had to pretend to be calm and stare at her beautiful face, and make a tender look of infinite love.
