In the blink of an eye, it was April 12.
In the Land Temple in Liangzhou City, many people burn incense and worship Buddha.
Qinghe County belongs to Liangzhou, about 15 kilometers away from Liangzhou City.
Sister Gui, who just turned 30 this year, specially traveled from Qinghe County to the city of Liangzhou, passing by the Temple of the Earth, and came in to pay her respects.
The people all said that the Temple of the Earth in the south of the city of Liangzhou is very effective.
She knelt on the futon and said in a low voice, "Eunuch the land, please protect me from being scolded in the army, eat well, sleep well, and hope that Liangzhou City will be safe from flooding this year."
On one side, the women were arranging incense candles and talking.
"Did you just ask Eunuch Land to bless Lord Wu to get better soon?"
"That's natural. It's almost a month. I'll come and say goodbye as long as I'm free. If it weren't for Master Wu, how could this Xie family collapse? Now my daughters can go out to the streets to run errands and buy some things for me, so I don't have to hide. Hide, for fear of being robbed by that Xie Bin!"
"Speaking of which, our common people's life is better, but Master Wu is suffering. You tell me, he was just assassinated in the court that day, and he was injured in the mansion. Then the head of the Xie family actually bought the murderer to go to the mansion. In the backyard of the government office, I stabbed Master Wu with another sword!"
"I heard that the sword at the back almost pierced through my heart, and Master Wu almost died! Fortunately, thanks to the blessing of this land father-in-law, the master woke up from bad luck."
Having said this, the woman bowed again to the Lord of the Land above.
The aunt next to the woman also followed and bowed, and then approached the gods and said, "Do you know the blind woman from the house next door to me?"
The woman nodded: "I heard that it is very accurate for people to see fate."
The aunt said: "Yes, the blind woman said that Lord Wu came to save Liangzhou from the fire and water on his own. Think about it, the Lord was injured and Xie Bin was beheaded. After the Lord He was injured again, the Xie family assassinated the court officials, and they were directly arrested and ransacked their homes."
Woman: "I heard that Patriarch Xie and Madam Xie ran away ahead of time, and they haven't been arrested yet."
The aunt said: "There's no need to worry about it. When Mr. Wu recovers from his injuries, where can the Xie family master and Mrs. Xie escape?"
When Sister Gui heard the words, she leaned over curiously: "Are you talking about the newly appointed Lord Zhizhou?"
The woman and the aunt turned their heads and said, "Yeah, aren't you from our Liangzhou city? You don't seem to know it."
Sister Gui nodded and said cheerfully: "I am from Qinghe County, but my deceased husband was from Liangzhou City. After he died, I went back to my parents' home to live. I heard that the wife of Lord Zhizhou is Ji Miss at home?"
The woman and the aunt nodded: "It's surnamed Ji. The Xinbuzhuang store on the street is run by the lady. Your lord is a good adult, and so does your wife. The clothes of the clothzhuang are good and cheap, you can go and have a look."
Sister Gui: "Then I have to go and see this! The Ji family are all good people! The second master of the Ji family is General Dingyuan, and my son is serving under General Dingyuan!"
General Dingyuan is brave and good at fighting, and has been stationed in Bianzhou these years to protect Dayu.
Even the people of Liangzhou have heard of this name.
A few people got together and chatted, and they saw each other in an instant. After worshipping Eunuch Land, they went to Buzhuang together to accompany Sister Gui to pick clothes.

The backyard of the government office.
Wanxiang hurriedly walked into the bedroom and reported: "Three girls, the flying pigeons in Qingzhou passed the book, and the darts we transported to Shangjing were robbed outside Qingzhou."
Ji Yunxi's brows and eyes were cold: "This is the fifth time."
Wanxiang said: "Yes." She took out a letter from her sleeve, "This is a letter from the Yiyang Security Bureau."
Ji Yunxi stretched out her hand to take it, and she looked down, not taking it apart for a while.
She probably guessed what was written in it.
"Go and call Yuan Guanshi and Baofu."
"Yes."
After watching Wanxiang leave, Ji Yunxi opened the letter.
This letter was written by the head of the Yiyang Escort Bureau himself.
Three girls personally open:
The escort was robbed five times, and the Yiyang Guard Bureau was to blame, and the corresponding compensation was made up within ten days. But the Yiyang escort bureau is really insufficient, and I am afraid that in the future, it will not be able to take over the Ji family escorts again.
Ji Yunxi read it back and forth twice, and put the letter back again.
It just so happened that Yuan Guanshi and Baofu also arrived.
Ji Yunxi first asked Yuan Steward: "I asked you to check who robbed me of Ji's escort, have you found it?"
Yuan Guanshi bowed: "I found it, it is a disciple of the Beishan Sword Sect."
Mrs. Xie's elder brother is one of the elders of the Beishan Sword Sect.
Ji Yunxi chuckled: "It turned out to be the Xie family."
During this period of time, there were often people who wanted to assassinate in the backyard of the government office, and the people who came were also disciples of the Beishan Sword Sect.
It just so happened that Wu Weian had been recovering from his injuries at home, and the days were too long to make sense. Ji Yunxi decided to do it, and let 'Wu Weian' get hurt again, and by the way copied Xie's house, it was a hundred.
Unexpectedly, since the Master Xie and Mrs. Xie ran away.
When Ji Yunxi dealt with the Xie family and his wife, all the people from the Liangzhou government office were used. She and his own people, she was useless.
The arresting speed of this government office is really incompetent.
And the Xie family couple who ran away actually turned around and grabbed her dart.
Ji Yunxi had thought that the person who would act at the Yiyang Escort would be the emperor, but she never expected that it would be the Xie family who would act first.
Fortunately, she was already prepared.
Ji Yunxi asked Baofu, "Is everything arranged at the security guard?"
Baofu nodded: "Miss, everything has been arranged. The people from several security bureaus arrived yesterday. It's just—" Baofu's face was displeased, and his tone was very disgusting, "I just came from the security office, the neighbor next to the security office. , they all came to me. The people who said that the guards did not sleep in the middle of the night, they were very disturbing! I told the guards today, but they didn't take it seriously at all! Miss, I was looking for you, hurry up Come and see!"
When Yuan Guanshi heard this, he coughed and hurriedly lowered his head.
Ji Yunxi glanced at him and said to Baofu, "Understood, you can make arrangements and leave in half an hour."
Baofu responded and turned around and left with Yuan Guanshi.
Baofu went to the stable first, just as the maid was feeding the horses.
She instructed: "Xiaoying, Madam is going out, hurry up and prepare the frame."
Xiaoying hurriedly said, "Hey."
Then Baofu took a step and walked directly towards the back kitchen.
The poisonous lady is not here, and the back kitchen is now Ji Yunxi's kitchen lady preparing meals.
When the cook saw Baofu coming in, she hurriedly said, "Miss Baofu, why did you come here in person? What's the matter at this point?"
Baofu held his hands: "You prepare some cakes and tea."
Chef: "Hey, but the lady wants to use it?"
Baofu narrowed his eyes slightly: "No, it's for Uncle."
The cook was stunned for a while, then looked at Baofu: "For Uncle?!"
Baofu didn't like this uncle, and all the maids in the house knew about it.
Baofu has never personally said that he wants to prepare cakes for the uncle.
As the cook went to prepare the food, she said, "Miss Baofu, do you think your uncle is not bad now?"
Baofu pursed his lips and gave a perfunctory hum.
Baofu saw all the things the uncle did in Liangzhou.
Baofu also admitted that the uncle may indeed be a good official.
But Baofu, as always, felt that the uncle was not worthy of her young lady.
The cook said: "My aunt is really good. If he hadn't blocked that sword for the young lady, he wouldn't have been going back and forth to recover for so long."
Baofu snorted coldly: "If it wasn't for Uncle, no one would hurt Miss."
The cook choked.
Baofu stretched out his hand, put the pastry in the cook's hand and left.
The reason why she delivered cakes to her uncle in person was because Baofu felt something was wrong.
She felt that the uncle was pretending to be sick.
Every time, Baofu went to the side room to deliver things, and the uncle lay with his back to her, motionless, and seemed to be in a coma.
But every day, the meals and pastries sent by the kitchen are eaten cleanly, and there is no leftover.
A person who is in a coma and seriously injured has such a good appetite
These days, the lady sleeps late every day.
The young lady not only has to worry about the Buzhuang Escort, but also helps the uncle to reply to the letter.
And uncle, if it is really pretending, it is really too much! !
When Baofu rushed to the side room aggressively, Xuezhu on the bed looked at the person who appeared in the room with a surprised expression: "Gong—"
Wu Weian put his finger between his lips: "Shh."
He walked around the room and asked, "What happened recently?"
Xuezhu is active in the room every day, and rarely goes out, but only goes out one night, pretending to be 'stabbed'.
He told Wu Weian about it.
Wu Weian probably guessed it in a few words, and he asked, "How do you think those arrests in the government office are fast?"
Xuezhu thought about it seriously: "Too bad."
Wu Weian agreed: "So the Xie family couple should not be arrested and brought to justice. You first find these arresters who are chasing outside, and bring them to arrest the Xie family couple and bring them to justice."
Xuezhu held it back for a month, and it was already broken, so he hurriedly said, "Yes!"
Said he was about to open the door and leave.
Wu Weian stopped him and pointed to the open window: "Go here."
Xuezhu: "Oh."
As soon as the Xuezhu people left, Wu Weian heard the sound of menacing footsteps.
The only sound of footsteps was the maid next to his wife.
It's a pity to say.
Why didn't she come
Wu Weian climbed onto the bed, covered the quilt, faced inward, and curled the corners of his lips, thinking.
When will she find out that he is back
Baofu pushed in the door and put the cake in his hand on the table.
She stared at the uncle's back, walked over, rolled up her sleeves, had a grim look on her face, and wanted to pick Wu Weian's back.
She wants to see if the uncle's injury is really serious!
But just as he reached out, he heard Ji Yunxi calling from the door, "Baofu."
Bao Fu meal.
Ji Yunxi called again, "Quick, go."
Baofu had no choice but to turn around and shut the door to leave, running towards Ji Yunxi who was in front: "Miss, didn't you say half an hour?"
Ji Yunxi asked her, "What are you doing in the uncle's room?"
Baofu gritted his teeth and leaned closer: "Miss, I think the uncle is pretending to be sick, and he just wants to appear that he is seriously injured and make you feel guilty! Miss, don't be deceived!"
Ji Yunxi looked at her amusingly: "Got it."
Baofu said angrily, "Miss! You can't take what the servant said!"
Ji Yunxi asked, "Baofu, why don't you like Uncle?"
Her maids have subtly changed their views on Wu Weian.
From time to time, without telling Baofu, he arranged food, clothing, housing and transportation for Wu Weian.
But only Baofu hated him, as always.
Baofu murmured, "I think Uncle is very fake and has no sincerity."
Ji Yunxi smiled: "I see, in short, you should stay away from Uncle in the future, you don't need to check him."
Baofu raised his head: "Miss..."
Ji Yunxi reached out and patted her head: "Remember?"
Baofu hesitated, but finally said glumly, "Remember."
*
Ji Yunxi invited six guards to come back.
There are about 20 or 30 people in each security bureau, and she has set up three houses that are connected together, just enough to live in.
It was in the afternoon and the sun was shining brightly.
In the courtyard in the middle, three groups of people formed their own camps, with a man standing in front of each group.
The other three remaining gangs did not dare to get together, and just watched.
The three men headed by them are all about thirty years old, with good looks, good stature, and excellent martial arts.
One in white, one in green, and one in green.
The person in white was graceful, holding a fan in his hand, and he fanned it for a while: "Green Protector, can't you take care of the good things alone?"
The man in Tsing Yi next to him held a sword in his hand and did not speak, but the meaning was obvious.
The man in green had a whip wrapped around his waist. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Why not? Don't you understand the principle of first come, first come?"
Bai Yi: "Speaking of coming first, arriving later, the palace lord was the first to lead me that day. As the great protector, both of you have to give in."
Green clothes: "Joke, we martial arts people, how can there be a reason for seniority? Everything is based on ability!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tsing Yi, who had never spoken, took his sword and stabbed at Lu Yi.
The whip from the waist of the green clothes was instantly thrown out, hooked on the sword of the green clothes, and the body turned back and jumped.
The good sword hummed, and the whip was hard to come by.
Seeing that the sword was about to go towards the whip instead, Lu Yi hurriedly put away the whip.
Seeing this, Bai Yi, who was on the side, took the opportunity to sneak up on Lu Yi with a fan.
Lu Yi said loudly, "Baihu Hair, you and I are not as good as Qing Hufa. We should work together to defeat Qing Hufa first, and then we will compete!"
Bai Yi heard the words, and the fan in his hand was still moving towards Green Yi.
Lu Yi scolded loudly, and just as he was about to evade, he saw Bai Yi's fan suddenly turn around and head towards Tsing Yi.
Seeing this, Lu Yi immediately followed, and together with Bai Yi, besieged Tsing Yi.
Tsing Yi was gradually lost, with an angry look on his face: "Despicable!"
The three of them were fighting each other, and they were at a critical moment.
Ji Yunxi's carriage stopped outside the courtyard.
The door was opened with a creak, and Ji Yunxi walked in slowly.
When it was too late, the three guardians landed immediately.
When they saw Ji Yunxi at the door, the three were stunned for a moment, then you looked at me, and I looked at you.
next moment.
Bai Yi straightened his clothes and returned to his elegant appearance.
Green clothes combed his hair in a bun, and there was a kind smile from the elders on his face.
Tsing Yi calmly turned to the side, revealing everyone's delicate left faces, and looked towards Ji Yunxi with a scrutiny.
They were looking at Ji Yunxi, and Ji Yunxi was also looking at them.
She looked at the group of people in the courtyard, and then glanced over the three outstanding-looking people one by one.
The people in the courtyard vaguely surrounded the three of them.
Even though the elder brothers of the Ji family had good looks, Ji Yunxi raised her eyebrows slightly when she looked at the faces of these three people.
Although the faces of these three people are not very old, their temperament has traces of the years, and they are a little more mature, about 30 or so.
Ji Yunxi was surprised.
If he hadn't come to see this scene in person, Ji Yunxi would have never imagined that the heads of the three most powerful security guards under Wu Weian were all beautiful men with their own characteristics.
Baofu has never been seduced by beauty, and seeing these people gathered in the courtyard again, and trampling the grass and trees in the courtyard into a mess, she scolded with her arms on her hips: "I told you this morning, let you Be calm! Don't gather people to make noise, don't destroy the house, but you don't have long ears and can't understand human words!"
People in the arena walk in the rivers and lakes, and being scolded for a few words is like scratching a tick.
The people in the courtyard turned a deaf ear, but instead looked at Ji Yunxi with great interest.
Protector Bai claimed to be a gentleman, and asked kindly, "Are you that child of Yunxi?"
Hearing this person's address to her, Ji Yunxi's eyebrows moved slightly.
What does this intimate question have to do with Wu Weian
Protector White is like this, and Protector Green is not to be outdone: "Come in quickly, what are you doing standing at the door. In fact, we wanted to come when you and ... got married on that day. But your wedding date is so fast that we can't make it in time."
Ji Yunxi laughed when she heard the words: "It's really a bit rushed."
She walked in quietly, and entered the main hall with the three guardians.
Originally, Ji Yunxi called these people purely for business.
But now, maybe there is something else to know.
Her husband has many secrets.
Ji Yunxi sat down in the main seat.
The man in Tsing Yi sat down with him.
Lu Yi originally wanted to sit in this position, but Tsing Yi took a step forward, and he endured and reluctantly went to the right.
But there, Bai Yi just sat down.
Lu Yi closed his eyes and sat down beside Tsing Yi helplessly.
Ji Yunxi took these in his eyes, and then said, "I invited everyone to come here to set up the Liangzhou Escort. Kaitai Village is in my name, and the Yiyang Escort has always been used. But recently, I have opened Taizhuang's darts have been robbed one after another, and the Yiyang escort bureau seems... not very good."
After she finished speaking, she picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
Hearing this, Bai Yi smiled slightly and shook his fan: "Yes, the Yiyang Escort is really not good."
Tsing Yi hugged his sword and nodded.
Lu Yi snorted coldly: "Then the Yiyang escort bureau, why not take advantage of the Xu family's support behind it, and everyone in the arena will look at the Xu family's face, so they won't rob him of Yiyang's darts. Otherwise, what would the people of the Yiyang escort bureau do? Might be able to hold the dart."
Ji Yunxi followed with a smile: "I am relieved to hear the three big bosses say this. I want to expand the Liangzhou Escort Bureau, not only to open Taizhuang, but the Xie family has a line to the Western Regions, and I want to use it as well. Go to the escort. That's why the six of you are brought together."
Hearing this, the three looked at each other with hesitation on their faces.
They thought it was Wei An who called them, but now they know that this matter seems to have nothing to do with Wei An.
Although for some reason Yunxi was able to contact them through Protector Circle, the three of them refused immediately.
Bai Yi: "Yunxi, if you have an escort looking for my escort bureau, I will definitely go up to the mountain of swords and go down to the sea of fire, but if the Liangzhou escort bureau is reorganized, it will be difficult for Uncle Bai to obey."
Tsing Yi: "It is impossible for me to enter the Liangzhou Escort Bureau."
Green: "I can't coexist with their two guards."
Ji Yunxi listened patiently and was not in a hurry.
She thought about these few big bosses in the account book, her eyes flashed slightly, and she said: "The Liangzhou Security Bureau has three bosses, the big boss will pay 300 taels per month, and the second boss will pay 200 taels a month. The third master is one hundred and two per month. If the three disagree—" She looked at the master of the other three guards, "What do you three think?"
The six big heads in the room suddenly suffocated.
These six escort bureaus earn a lot of money. But every point was held by the protector of the circle.
Even if there are three people in White, Green and Green, it is only five taels of silver a month.
The other three big heads looked at the three leaders, and one of them mustered up the courage to say, "I will."
The other two followed suit: "I would too."
The darts in Kaitai Village were not the grain darts they transported. The grain darts were the most thankless. It's easy to get wet and moldy, and you can't make much money.
But the darts in Taizhuang are all fine jewelry calligraphy and painting!
Bai Yi frowned and glanced at the three.
The three silently looked away.
Tsing Yi suddenly said: "The head of the Liangzhou Escort Bureau, let me come."
Lu Yi looked over: "Why are you the boss? The boss can only be me!"
Bai Yi smiled gracefully: "I am one year older than you all, so naturally I am the elder."
The atmosphere in the hall changed instantly, and the sword was drawn for a while.
Tsing Yi held the sword, Green Yi also wrapped the whip tightly, and Bai Yi closed the fan.
Wanxiang froze all over, and subconsciously protected Ji Yunxi in front of her.
Ji Yunxi shook her head at her and said, "I think you all want to be the boss? If that's the case, give everyone half a month and let me see who is suitable for you."
After finishing speaking, Ji Yunxi put down the tea cup and left.
*
Wu Weian traveled day and night, and hardly closed his eyes on the road.
He lay in the side room and fell asleep.
He was woken up when the maid came to deliver dinner.
Wu Weian coughed and got up, and asked weakly, "Where's Madam?"
The maid was slightly surprised. It was the first time in the past month that my uncle got up. I think it's much better.
She hurriedly replied, "Mrs. hasn't come back yet."
Wu Weian sighed: "When Madam comes back, tell her and ask her to come to the side room."
The maid replied yes and stepped back respectfully.
After Ji Yunxi left the escort station, he went to Buzhuang again, and even went to the shop where Xie's house was raided.
After that, I ate at the best restaurant in Liangzhou before returning to the government office.
As soon as she arrived, the maid came up and blessed her: "Madam, my uncle called you to the side room."
Hearing this, Ji Yunxi frowned slightly, and she stopped: "Uncle called me to the side room?"
Maid: "Yes, the servant is going to deliver dinner today, and the uncle explained it to the servant."
Ji Yunxi raised her head and looked at the location of the side house not far away, thoughtfully.
After a long while, she narrowed her eyes: "I see."
In the side room, Wu Weian heard Ji Yunxi's voice.
He, who was lying lazily at first, suddenly lay flat and straight, and pulled the quilt up to cover the top of his hair.
But he waited and waited, and waited and waited, but Ji Yunxi did not wait.
On the other side, Ji Yunxi went back to the bedroom, took the bedclothes, and went to the bathroom to wash up.
When she came back from the wash, there was one more person on the bed in the bedroom.
The man was lying flat with the quilt pulled over his head, exactly the same as Xuezhu's sleeping habits.
Ji Yunxi stared at the man several times, then took some things to the side, and walked to the bed step by step.
Under the quilt, Wu Weian's lips just raised, and a large stack of letters whizzed directly towards his face.
