A familiar sound of footsteps woke up the meditating girl standing by the window. She was wearing a green shirt and folding a fan, looking like a troubled young man, with handsome eyebrows and bright eyes, looking at the somewhat bewildered girl with a smile.
A touch of surprise flashed across the girl's black jade-like clear and bright pupils, her soft lips raised an endearing arc, and the lotus-colored silk skirt outlined the girl's slender figure into a delicate and handsome figure, and the girl's bright wrists Qingshu, waving her hair that was blown to pieces by the cool breeze on the lakeside, her clear eyes seemed helpless and resentful, and after a few turns on Wu Feng, she settled on: "Northwestern Military and Political Governor Li Wu Feng Master Li?"
The thin film between the two of them was finally pierced. For a moment, Wu Feng felt relaxed for no reason. It felt uncomfortable to bear someone else's identity, but he didn't want to lift the veil by himself. In a situation like this, he could There is nothing better than letting the other party see through your true colors.
Nodding and smiling gracefully, Wu Feng stepped into the room gracefully, "Miss Lin really has a good heart. I also know that I can't hide this from her for long. It's just that I didn't have a suitable opportunity to explain to her some time ago. I also ask her to forgive me." "
Although her identity was revealed by the other party, Lin Yuexin was not surprised. Her appearance may have been drawn into a pattern by the other party's intelligence department for identification, and this kind of thing was kept secret for a while.
"Sir Li, you are so polite. Didn't my little sister also hide the secret from you?" Lin Yuexin covered her mouth and chuckled, but her naughty eyes wandered on Wu Feng's face, "How about we avoid each other and don't owe each other, this way How are you?"
"Haha, of course that's good. It also prevents Li from always feeling guilty and uneasy, as if he owes the girl something." Wu Feng also said with a hearty smile, and Lin Yuexin couldn't help but tremble in his heart with such a confident attitude.
"I wonder if the master has disappeared for more than ten days without saying hello to us sisters. Could it be that something urgent happened?" Lin Yuexin tried her best to calm down the rippling emotions in her heart, and stretched out her hand to signal the other party to take a seat. He also leaned against the desk in front of the window and sat down, shaking an exquisite bamboo-handled round fan casually, seemingly casually, but his eyes were quietly sizing up the other person.
"Haha, it's nothing urgent. It's just that there are some affairs in the west that need to be dealt with, so it has been delayed for so long. Li here solemnly apologizes. Fortunately, although Li left, he did not delay the business. For Miss Tuolin's blessing, the treatment The whereabouts of Miss Lin's medicine have been found, but the last home has not yet been found. Li has arranged for people to handle it, and I believe it will not take long to get the exact information." Wu Feng had a sincere smile on his face, and he could see that The happiness in the other party's heart came from deep inside, which made Lin Yuexin's heart throb with joy. The thought of escaping or facing this feeling lingered in her heart for a while.
"Thank you for taking the trouble, sir. My little sister has troubled you with her own affairs. I hope it doesn't delay your business." A trace of blush appeared on Lin Yuexin's sweet cheeks. Although she had been prepared in her heart, but when her own life was at stake, No one is exempt from common sense when it comes to things. The nostalgia and desire for life are the most reasonable thing for a normal person.
"Haha, the girl is joking. Let's not talk about the search for the medicine. It has not affected me. If the two are really irreconcilable, then Li will have to put other things aside and finish the search for the girl's medicine before we can talk about such a big thing. Others. In Li's heart, finding medicine for the girl is no less important than anything in Li's hands." Li Wufeng's burning eyes stayed on the girl's crystal-clear jade face, and the girl's face turned red when he looked at it. Delicate and charming, the girl's shy and graceful appearance was like a budding flower standing in the wind, swaying, and for a moment Wu Feng was enchanted.
At this moment, the world suddenly became silent. The two people's eyes met in the air, and they were immediately entangled and could no longer be separated. The thick atmosphere filled the whole room. At this time, silence was louder than sound, and everything was unspoken. .
Time passed quietly like this, and the cool breeze passed by quietly, rolling up the green gauze curtains by the window. It was not until the sound of soft footsteps in the doorway and corridor that the two of them woke up from this silent communication.
Regretfully, they calmed down and immediately turned their heads to the side to avoid the embarrassing situation of the other party finding out that they had lost their composure. Even Qiao Yazong, who walked carefully into the room with tea in hand, found that the atmosphere in the room was a bit strange.
After Ya Zong put down the tea and retreated, the charming atmosphere had faded away. Wu Feng, who felt lost, sighed secretly in his heart. He had the opportunity to express his feelings but was interrupted by this accident. Fortunately, he returned to the northwest, and there were more opportunities. .
The lake breeze was blowing. Lin Yuexin slowly stood up and walked to the window, half-leaning in front of the window. The shy look of a child she had just now disappeared, replaced by the calm and indifferent look, "Not yet." Ask Mr. Li, what important things have you done in the past ten days?"
Wu Feng was startled for a moment. At this time, Lin Yuexin had returned to normal, and her mind was spinning rapidly. Wu Feng didn't want to hide it. After all, if you want to teach others a lesson, you can't hide it. It will happen sooner or later. Let people know that instead of doing that, it is better to shake it out openly, and at least win a little favor from the beauty.
"Haha, it's not a big deal. The Pancha people in the Indian Kingdom have repeatedly harassed several ethnic minorities in the west of Northern Luzon, and the trend is getting worse. Since I am the governor of Northern Luzon, I must do my best to the governor of Northern Luzon. Taking responsibility for the responsibility, Li used the past ten days to teach these people a lesson, lest these guys think that we Tanghe people are weak and can be bullied." He briefly introduced the war of more than ten days without saying anything. Feng cleverly changed the topic: "Girl has been out for many days, so she probably doesn't know much about the situation in Kansai. I heard that my uncle has joined hands with His Highness the Third Highness to defeat the Kansai Taiping Army and recover Jincheng Mansion."
"Oh?" Lin Yuexin raised her eyebrows in surprise. Apart from the initial period of time when she had been out for so long, someone from Sanjiang had contacted her. Since entering the northwest territory, perhaps due to various considerations, Sanjiang has never contacted her again. He didn't come to contact her, and she was at ease. She didn't want to get involved in the affairs of her family anymore, so it would be better if she didn't listen, but what she thought on the surface could not hide her deep concern for her family. .
"My second uncle and your third highness have joined forces?" Lin Yuexin asked back, feeling indescribably relaxed in her heart. Perhaps it was due to her nature. Deep down in her heart, Lin Yuexin had always been unwilling to confront the empire head-on. Deep in her heart, She hopes that her family can live in harmony with the empire, but this is contrary to the wishes of her father and brother. This contradictory mood has been entangled with her, making her consciously or unconsciously avoid or escape from this fact. At present, the Taiping Religion The rise of the empire caused the empire to temporarily suppress its suspicion of the Lin Lang family, and had to focus its main energy on the Taiping Sect. The Lin Lang family, who had gained a chance to breathe, could also take this opportunity to make good friends with the central government of the empire. , so that the deteriorating relationship can be eased. His second uncle's move also killed two birds with one stone. It could allow the empire to temporarily tolerate the Lin family's control of Hujiang, and it could also exchange for the empire's temporary acquiescence at the cost of Jincheng's gains and losses.
"At least that's what it looks like on the surface. Being able to return most of the occupied Jincheng Mansion to the empire is a favor that His Highness the Third Highness will not appreciate, right? There will also be a suitable explanation for the central government of the empire. "Wufeng's eyes wandered over the girl's rosy cheeks, hoping to see something from her face. The delicate girl in front of her is not as weak as she appears on the surface. The name "Jade Fox" is not in vain. This girl is indispensable for the success of the Lin family today.
Shaking her head slowly, the girl smiled sweetly, like a hundred flowers blooming, which made Wu Feng's eyes light up, "Sir, do you really think so? My little sister doesn't think so. His Highness, the Third Highness, was probably ordered by the emperor to come to save the situation in Kansai. , among the six prefectures in Guanxi, the Taiping Sect occupies three prefectures, and the Lin Lang family each occupies one prefecture. Now that Jincheng has been recovered, although we can breathe a sigh of relief now, what about the future? His Majesty the Emperor will not take back the empire because of the Lin family's assistance. Jincheng will give up control of Lujiang, right? It’s just a matter of time, and the conflict between the empire and the Lin family will also break out."
"In the future?" Wu Feng's face also had a look of melancholy, and his voice was much deeper and more condensed. "Who can say clearly what the future of this empire will be like? The Taiping Sect dominates the three counties, and the climate has been established. Your Highness Sitting on the mountain watching the tiger, waiting for the opportunity, the Third Highness can move forward and retreat freely, watching the tiger with eager eyes. Even the city guard's intention is difficult to explain clearly. With the wisdom of the girl, can't you see the various crises hidden behind this? If the wind blows, I'm afraid that the Central Plains will soon be in flames. What will the small gains and losses of the river mean then?"
Wu Feng's words were like a gust of cold wind blowing by, making the girl couldn't help but tremble. She didn't know the details. Although it had been some time since she left Sanjiang, the general trend of the empire had already been formed, and it could not be changed overnight. It's just that she has never been willing to accept the prospect that the empire may be on the verge of disintegration. Even if her own family will also play a role in this, she still can't let go.
Seeing that the girl didn't answer for a long time, Wu Feng thought that the other party didn't want to talk about this topic, so he moved the topic away: "Okay, let's not talk about these things that will happen in the distant future. Those things are beyond our control. Even if you force yourself to change something, I'm afraid you will only end up with a bloody head. The rise of the Taiping Religion has given several princes a great opportunity, forcing the central government of the empire to spend more time on it. So the emperor It will probably be even harder for His Majesty’s family affairs to be settled satisfactorily. Who would willingly live under others? I think Miss Lin should see this issue more clearly than Li."
Lin Yuexin let out a faint sigh, and a hint of sadness appeared on Lin Yuexin's delicate and lovely face: "The locust stalks the cicada, and the oriole follows behind. At this moment, in order to obtain greater and more rights within our empire, The fight is endless, but who can see the crisis hidden behind it? The Kaman people, the Machikhan people, the Pu people and even the Japanese people, will they just stay there and be indifferent? By then, the little sister is thinking, Who can save this building from its imminent decline?"
