Egret official, a name that sounds sinister and mysterious, and can make children stop crying. As a department that also has the responsibilities of the imperial envoy, the court, and the intelligence agency, the number of egret officials has always been insufficient. Especially when the territory is suddenly expanded, the egret officials are needed to monitor the dynamics of the local survivors with eyes and ears. Su Hejun worked even harder, almost to the point of having no time for sex.
The new generation of powerful egret officials such as Zheng Zong has gradually grown up, but due to the limitations of mind-boggling and other aspects, they cannot take the lead. The local ruffian rogue easily.
For this, Su Hejun almost turned his hair white.
No, this year, in order to enter the "Egret Official" to Liu Song, after a long period of preparation work, Su Hejun learned that the powerful and the people of the Southern Dynasty liked Hu Ji and the dance of the Western Regions. Qin Dijie entered Liu Song's "dance class", which was very popular, and could often go to and from powerful families, so he planned to train a group of female "egret officials" as spies and sent them to Liu Song to collect intelligence.
This kind of thing is very common. In Wei State, there are also egret officials who opened brothels to collect information. For example, the two men who were given to He Mulan by Tuoba Tao in the past became outstanding intelligence officers after being taken in by Su Hejun. The female egret official also demands absolute loyalty and obedience to the state of Wei, and has to endure the "hands and feet" of the powerful. The most important thing is that you must have good looks, as well as dance and music skills, the best There is also a little martial arts, this candidate is too hard to find.
Even Tuoba Tao laughed after hearing all these conditions - this requirement, it is enough to be the concubine of his harem, let alone an egret official.
Generally, such an egret official is cultivated since childhood, and can be used at the right age, and the loyalty is good, but like Su Hejun, a temporary dignitary, where is such a suitable person, and finally hit the idea On those palace maids who entered the palace for sins.
In Wei State, those who can be charged into the palace due to crimes are not petty crimes, and they must not be ordinary families. Many are the daughters of criminal officials, and their appearance, appearance and cultivation are all first-class. That's how he entered the palace.
With the family members of these palace people as hostages, as long as their information is reliable enough and useful enough, their family members can be freed because of them. This is a great temptation, and I don’t know how many women are willing to agree.
Even Yuan Fang was moved. He had several clan sisters who had entered the palace to do starch washing. They were all talented and well-informed. Instead of spending time in the palace, it was better to go to Liu Song. With his relationship with Su Hejun and Zheng Zong, the Yuan family will soon be able to have a group of sinners free.
In this way, the first batch of suitable palace maids were selected immediately. Some of them were beautiful, some were good at melody, some were good at dancing, and some were good at reciting poems. There were also Hu people and Han women. A "dance class" is more than enough.
As for martial arts, that is basically no one knows. Su He Junming (fake) thinking (public) suffering (ji) thinking (private), after obtaining the consent of the prince and Tuoba Tao, he called Wang Muyun, a female official of the East Palace, as "Martial Master" ", teach them some simple martial arts, and how to restrain others.
Originally, it seemed most appropriate to find He Mulan for such a thing, but He Mulan was now a hussar general, so there was no time to help train the egret officers, and most of the other women who knew martial arts were from military commanders' families or from high schools. It is also very resistant to contact these women, but Wang Muyun has a cold and determined personality, has no prejudice against people, and is well-versed in temperament and martial arts, so he has become the most suitable candidate.
As soon as Wang Muyun heard that he was going to help the Egret official, there was a sudden thud in his head, and the whole person became irritable.
In recent years, Su Hejun's admiration for her is well known, and even many eunuchs and palace servants in the palace are polite when they see her, and no one dares to offend a future "Egret official chief wife" .
But because of her childhood memories, she was full of resistance to Su He Jun, and even felt that his "admiration" was a kind of teasing, just to embarrass her and see her overwhelmed, and she felt even more disgusted in her heart.
The more "infatuated" Su Hejun showed, the less happy Wang Muyun became. Even Mrs. He could see that, but she couldn't do anything about it.
Some people are just born out of character and can't force it.
In the end, it was His Royal Highness that comforted her and said, "For these women, what you teach them may be the only way to save their lives. Even for them, you should go and see it." doubt.
But the disgust is still there.
"Wang Shangshu, this is the last 18 people selected." Su Hejun pointed to the 18 beauties who were saluting in front of him, "A year later, they will go to Liu Song, with dancers, geeks and musicians. Entering Liu Song as an identity, in order to prevent accidents, I hope you can design a set of self-protection moves to allow them to escape danger when necessary..."
Wang Muyun is now a high-ranking female official in the palace, and the rank of the female minister is only one level lower than that of Su Hejun's Hou Guanling, so these women who were palace maids before facing Wang Muyun can't help but cringe a little, facing Su Hejun. Instead, he was chatting and laughing.
Beautiful women always have a lot of confidence in single men.
Hearing Su Hejun's words, Wang Muyun sternly replied to him: "There is no quick self-defense move in this world..."
Su Hejun looked relaxed and looked at Wang Muyun with a smirk: "Oh, there's no quick move... Huh? You said there's no quick move?"
"I Have a Scroll of Ghosts and Gods"
"No, but I can teach them some kung fu to stick to a good enemy, and perform it as a woman, which is even more unexpected. But these are not quick, and they must be practiced diligently every day.
Wang Muyun looked at the eighteen beauties in tight dresses, and actually felt that his job was not that easy.
Sure enough, when it was time to "point", the facts immediately responded to her "foreseeing".
"Ouch! How can you pinch people!"
An Egret official candidate fell to the ground and shouted.
"What kind of martial arts want to pinch people's faces? How can you go to Liu Song if you lose your appearance!"
This cold woman must have done it on purpose!
"You always look at Su Hejun, so you turned your face away and didn't notice my hand coming." Wang Muyun lowered his eyes.
"It's really broken, just change someone."
"you… "
"Pfft!"
"Wang Shizhong is really ruthless, but what she said is true at all, Xiangqing always looks at Suhe Shijun, and he has to look at himself, huh! Who can't see who Suhe Shijun sees every day? Ah! It's her self-love."
Several candidate beauties whispered beside.
Wang Muyun didn't even look at the woman, and walked straight to Su Hejun: "Can you not come often?"
"Why? This is the person I am responsible for!"
Su Hejun's heart was stunned, and he immediately explained righteously.
"Because they all look at you, not me." Wang Muyun said something very helpless, "I can't teach them well!"
The smile on Su Hejun's face slowly disappeared, and he glanced around at these women, his tone suddenly became cold: "Which one do you think is inappropriate, just throw it out. There are thirty-six candidates, and these eighteen are just the most suitable. Yes, but it's not that no one has added."
His tone was so stern that the women who were eavesdropping with their ears perked up broke into a cold sweat.
How did they forget! This handsome man is not just a stunner who is obsessed with female officials, he is the master who controls the lifeline of the waiter Cao! Whether their families can be pardoned for their meritorious deeds, the premise is that they can become egret officials and serve the country!
Wang Muyun looked at Su Hejun's cold expression and nodded silently.
"it is good."
There are no other words, Wang Muyun's "good" word, I don't know if it is "she will throw it out" or "she knows."
This is also what Wang Muyun didn't like about Su Hejun. Just like when he was a child, even if he smiled at you one moment, he would pull out a snake the next moment, and no one knew what he would do.
Now that he treats you well and loves you, who knows what he thinks in his heart
She is not afraid of the egret official, she is afraid of Su Hejun.
But because of this conversation, the attitudes of these women changed drastically. When Wang Muyun instructed them on the ability to "stick to the enemy", they all worked very hard.
But even so, there are still people who are not suitable for learning martial arts.
They are all old, and their bones have grown. Some of them have good dance skills, at least they have high comprehension and coordination, but some of them can't comprehend what Wang Muyun said.
Wang Muyun is not a patient person. During half a month of teaching, when he found that some women could not be cruel at all, or could not learn what she taught, he directly replaced Su and Jun.
This is a matter of life and death, or even a major event related to the family and the country. If you change people now, you may lose the chance to save your family. But if you don’t change people and die in a foreign country, wouldn’t that be a greater loss
Su Hejun followed the advice given by Wang Muyun and exchanged four of the women. These four women were all criminals, and they used to belong to the famous local clan. When they arrived in the palace, they could only be low-level palace servants who were yelled at and even insulted by eunuchs.
When they heard that it was impossible for them to go to Liu Song again, a woman collapsed on the spot, glared at Wang Muyun as if she was looking at the enemy, and cursed through gritted teeth:
"You hard-hearted woman! You will be punished! You cut off the only way for our family to survive! Why are you so cruel!"
Su Hejun was not happy at the moment, frowned and said coldly: "This matter is my decision. If you are dissatisfied, you are also directed at me. Saying such harsh words to her is just bullying the soft and fearing the hard."
Considering that she was in a low mood, Su Hejun didn't let anyone drag her down, but he didn't speak very politely.
The woman wiped her face and backed away expressionlessly, but a woman who had always looked strong beside her adjusted her clothes, bowed to Wang Muyun, Su and Junshen, and asked in a trembling voice, "Two The envoy, is there no other way to be accommodating? There will be no place for our monks in the waiter and Cao? In other places, don't we need... I can do anything... "
This woman has always worked very hard, whether it is learning martial arts or dancing, she is extremely hardworking. But Wang Muyun didn't think she could stand being an egret official.
Egret officer, most of the time she wants to kill people, and she has to sacrifice herself. She can't even use the ruthless ability to save her life when she is practicing martial arts. How can she succeed when performing tasks
"You are too selfish. As long as it is possible to hurt yourself, you will always hesitate. But as an egret official, sacrifice is sometimes unavoidable. I just talk about it."
Wang Muyun sighed.
Su Hejun, who selected these women, raised his eyebrows and glanced at her curiously, as if he didn't quite understand why Wang Muyun, who had only been in contact with him for half a month, was so sure.
"I'm too selfish..." The unacceptable woman muttered to herself and looked at Wang Muyun, "I'm too selfish? Hahaha? I'm too selfish? I just don't want to get hurt or die, I still have my family in the palace, I don't want to have an accident, it's also considered selfish? I didn't expect you to be so cruel, she was right, you are a hard-hearted person who is not at all friendly and can't negotiate with others... "
The woman muttered to herself and laughed with grief and indignation. Just when Su Hejun felt something was wrong and wanted people to pull her away, the woman suddenly raised her head to the sky and shouted:
"There is no last resort, why should I go back!"
Before she finished speaking, the woman slammed her head into the rockery beside Wang Muyun, and blood splattered on the spot, red and white spraying everywhere.
"what!"
The screams sounded, except for a few calm women who were not too rude, the other women covered their eyes and shouted or showed unbearable expressions.
Wang Muyun stared at this scene in disbelief with his eyes wide open, and he was completely stunned.
She never thought it would be like this!
She would make this suggestion originally for her own good, because she was afraid that she would be in danger in Liu Song because of the constant failures, but...
Seeing that Wang Muyun's expression was wrong, Su Hejun asked other egret officials to take this woman away, and hurriedly stepped forward and pressed Wang Muyun's shoulder.
Snapped!
Wang Muyun, who had mixed feelings in his heart, suddenly slapped Su Hejun's palm away.
"Stay away from me." Wang Muyun said in a low voice with a cold face. "Just because I took on this inexplicable task... Why did I suffer from this inexplicable thing..."
She looked down at the dirt on the corners of her skirts and clothes, and the beautiful and sad face appeared in front of her eyes again.
"Why did the egret officer sacrifice a woman to do such a thing..."
She took a step back and looked up at Su Hejun.
"Why did you do such a cruel thing..."
"Don't mess with your mind." Su Hejun looked anxious, "It's because the woman's temperament is not tough enough, it's not your reason..."
"Am I confused?"
Wang Muyun laughed mockingly.
Having experienced the palace change, has she seen few dead people
Why is she so flustered? Why on earth did she want to slap her face when she looked at Su Hejun
Yes, it's because she can't do anything...
She couldn't do anything but teach them martial arts and let them know how to protect themselves.
She didn't do anything either.
"She was originally a sinner."
Su Hejun has to explain...
"enough!"
Wang Muyun waved his hand.
"Let me be quiet, I'm going to change clothes."
***
During the day, there was a lot of trouble, and even Tuoba Tao ordered Su Hejun to go to his palace. Wang Muyun, as the "teacher", did not return to the East Palace, but seeing that it was late at night, she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep at all. Feeling, he simply put on his clothes and got up, and quietly returned to the spot where the blood splattered during the day.
The bloodstains of the day had been wiped clean, but the removal of the rockery reminded her of what happened during the day. Wang Muyun took a breath of the cold night air, and squatted down weakly with his face covered.
I didn't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me.
"what are you doing here?"
"Who is there!"
Wang Muyun stood up abruptly and turned his head to look. I saw Su Hejun carrying a night light and stepping on the deep path to walk in front of her step by step.
"I'm sorry about the day. I didn't expect such a thing to happen." Su Hejun's face was hidden in the shadow of the tree, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
"You don't have to worry about it, wait a few days for the new..."
"I can't do it, let me go back." Wang Muyun interrupted him simply. "Why don't you teach them yourself? I don't think they care about physical contact with men. You can teach them yourself!"
She still can't understand it.
"Anyway, even if you die, you won't frown..."
"You think someone died in front of me, and I don't do anything?" The lamp Su Hejun was holding suddenly trembled, "You think I'm such a ruthless person?"
Su Hejun's voice became suppressed and forbearance.
"Isn't it? When the woman died in front of you, you didn't even lift your eyelids. Let the woman sacrifice herself and go to Liu Song to spy on the information. It was originally a matter of life and death. To make such a suggestion, where are you... "
"Wang Muyun, they are sinners! I am providing them with the opportunity to commit their crimes." Su Hejun finally took a step closer and moved his face out of the shadows.
"I've always wanted to ask you, why do you hate me so much? Except when I was a child, I have never been rude to you, and I believe that everyone in the world can see my longing for you. But why do you Every time you see me, you look so disgusted?"
In the silent night, the depression of you chasing after me for a long time, the pressure of family members, and the confusion of others, finally seemed like the last straw that broke the camel's back, so Su Hejun dared to ask.
Wang Muyun didn't expect him to be so direct, and after looking up at him for a while, he said with a complicated expression: "I'm not familiar with you at all, when you laugh, I don't know if you're laughing, you're crying. At that time, I don't know if you are crying because you are crying. Egret officials are so good at disguising, and I am such an ordinary woman, I have no ability to read people's hearts at all... "
"It's not that you offended me when you were a child, but I've been afraid of you since I was a child."
She answered sullenly.
"It turned out to be like this... And it's because I'm an egret official." Su Hejun covered his brows and eyes mockingly, raised his head and closed his eyes, exuding a gloomy aura.
Just like what Wang Muyun was most afraid of.
"I've done things like these women have done."
Su Hejun's voice came faintly through the night wind.
Wang Muyun's eyes widened in surprise.
wait, what did he say...
"I have also disguised myself and dressed myself as the favorite pamperer of a man with a broken sleeve, waiting for an opportunity to inquire about news; I also suspected my best friend, and even pretended to be injured and used a bitter plan to force him to reveal True intentions…”
Su Hejun sneered.
"As you said, a lot of times, I'm a terrible person."
"But I don't regret it."
Wang Muyun showed the expression "as expected".
"Who doesn't like people like Your Majesty and Hua Mulan? Who doesn't like a life under the sun? Egret officials carry a reputation like a mouse. When people mention 'Egret', all they see are gloomy and cruel. Looks, but you think you can stand here safely, what do you rely on?"
He took a deep breath, as if there was anger burning in his heart.
"Gaoche would be attached, and Rouran would be chaotic back then. It was the result of countless egret officials like me who went deep into the grasslands, divided and attracted little by little. How many egrets were killed in the grasslands as ordinary herdsmen, and they didn't even reach their destination. Do it? In the battle of Xia Extermination, how many Egret officials spread the news, making Helianchang think that Helian Ding had turned against him, and that was the result? Just to force him to recognize King Yan's incompetence! Did the egret officer sacrifice less than the generals on the battlefield? But how many people can understand what we are doing!"
Wang Muyun's face suddenly turned pale, and he felt guilty for his "narrowness".
She didn't mean that...
She simply thought that the egret officer might have become accustomed to the "pretend" life and no longer knew how to live like a normal person.
She... She didn't mean to look down on the egret official!
"Because you yearn for the light, can't you see the shadow under the light? When the scorching sun is in the sky, why does everyone know to hide in the shadow, but when the weather gets cooler, everyone thinks the shadow is too cold ? I never thought that the egret officer was a shady and shameless villain who was hiding in a corner and ready to kill people at any time. If you look at me like this..."
Su Hejun waved his hands wearily.
"Wang Muyun, I understand what you mean. I won't pester you again in the future."
"Su He-kun, you don't have to..."
However, Su Hejun seemed to be unable to bear it any longer, clutching his chest and stumbled away from here. Wang Muyun hesitated to speak, and stretched out his retaining hand, but he didn't even grab a corner of his clothes.
She could only watch helplessly as Su Hejun, who was dressed in white, held up the night light and walked away erratically.
"Am I wrong..."
Wang Muyun looked at the empty rockery.
"He...he always wears white..."
Why do people who walk in the dark always wear white clothes
Is it to remind others that you are not really that kind of gloomy person
still simple...
Yearning for bright
In the distance, he finally walked to the invisible Su Hejun, wiped his face, put away the bleak expression on his face, and touched his chin.
'It's not bad to just take retreat as advance, right? A soft-hearted woman like her must be caught in a contradiction at this time. '
'She has an upright temperament. Once she feels that she may be wrong, she will definitely find a way to understand me and prove that she is wrong and a good person. Once you understand who I am, there is no fear of me...'
Su Hejun looked at himself strangely.
'Do I look so gloomy? To give Wang Muyun the feeling of murder? By the way, I have been wearing white clothes every day, just to prove that I, the egret official, is really not someone who carries a dagger with me and stabs people with cold knives. Look at my body, it is clean and there is no blood at all...'
He sighed and shook his head.
"Why is it so difficult for me to marry a daughter-in-law? Your Majesty should solve the problem of a daughter-in-law for every Egret officer... Tsk, this is an important issue, and it will help improve Egret officer's loyalty. I'll make a case when I go back. To Your Majesty..."
Su Hejun shook his head and left while talking to himself.
The next day, Wang Muyun did not resign, but continued to stay in the waiting officer Cao to help train the palace people. This teaching lasted for more than four months, and Wang Muyun gradually understood that the egret officials in the waiting officer Cao were a group What a joke.
There are also gloomy people, such as the terrifying man named Zheng Zong. But when he heard that she and Hua Mulan were good friends, he instantly felt like a spring breeze.
That's why she felt that the egret official was terrible, everyone has countless faces, and she didn't wrong anyone at all...
but…
Doesn't seem so scary anymore
***
A year later, Su Hejun finally kept the clouds open to see the moonlight.
It was the tenth time that Su He's family came to propose marriage, but he was not invited out by the Wang family "certainly", but instead invited a matchmaker from Su Hejun's family to sit in.
Su Hejun, who got the news, finally shed two lines of excited tears.
He is finally stronger than Di Yefei!
He only needs to wait until Wang Muyun leaves the palace at the age of twenty-five to have a daughter-in-law!
Hua Mulan runs with the ball without marrying!
Ahhh! awesome!
Di Yefei: (squinting) You are so strong! I've eaten my mouth, you're still a magician!
Su Hejun: (shrinks and puffs up his chest) You know shit, people like Lao Tzu still…
Wang Muyun: (pulls the whip) sneering at ING...
Suhe-kun: (immediately changed his mouth)... He really is a magician...
