Back Off, Let Me Come Chapter 1049

Gu Chi asked more questions: "What's so strange?"

"I just smelled the incense that Shaoxuan usually used." Shen Tang said and sniffed again, carefully identifying the smell and its source to confirm that he was not smelling it wrong. "I remember that the incense was specially customized for Shaoxuan by Yaohe. Kang Guo's only share.”

 Shen Zhi and Bai Su have a very good relationship.

 How good is it?

Fortunately, there are rumors among the people that the two have a habit of grinding mirrors and have a close personal relationship. When this incident first broke out, it alarmed the Yushitai. The censor visited the two of them during the early court meeting, hoping that they would pay attention to the scale of their interactions and not smear the image of Kang Guo's officials.

Although men and women are not allowed to coexist among the people, Kang's post-war policies support male and female fertility and encourage widows to remarry or recruit children. Women who give birth to women, regardless of gender, can receive ten pounds of sugar, six pounds of meat, and three pieces of cloth from the government. , if the child dies in infancy, half of it can be used for the mother's health care. From a policy perspective, Kang State spent a lot of money on population.

How can two men and two women have children if they live together?

 Officials of Kang State should lead by example and support the combination of yin and yang!

As soon as this statement came out, hundreds of officials agreed.

Shen Tang had eaten so much melon that he actually asked Bai Su and Bai Su what they meant. In the current social environment, it is not unreasonable for officials to worry. You can do whatever you want in private, but you can't have any real evidence on the surface, and you can use the excuse of deep love between brothers and sisters to excuse it.

Regardless of whether the outside world believes it or not, at least there is an explanation.

 Bai Su said with a gloomy face: "No such thing. 】

Shen Zhi was in a bad mood: [General Bai has a life-saving grace for me, so does it mean he has crossed the line if he has a closer personal relationship? Who are these idiots fabricating these rumors? If I were to catch him, I would have to scatter the ashes from that person's ancestral grave and tear that person's mouth apart! 】

 A rumor offended both of them!

Shen Tang sent people to trace the source of the rumors, and finally the Yushitai found out the truth. The source of the popular gossip turned out to be Shen Zhi's ex-lover, a scholar surnamed Li! This person was drunk and talking nonsense at a gathering, and outsiders listened.

　　【Bai Sutian came to rescue the beauty, and Shen Zhi fell in love at first sight! 】

 The scene is described in detail, including a nose and eyes!

Shen Zhi brought hundreds of people to his ex-lover's house and smashed the pots and pans! The yellow guard dog also kicked the dog bowl!

It is useless for people with the surname Li to cry to heaven and earth.

Surprisingly, pumping, and swollen face.

Because the incident was too big, Shen Zhi was arrested again by the Yushitai, but this time it was a show for the public. When officials broke into people's homes, smashed them and even slapped them, the impact was really not good. They should also be fined a symbolic salary and think about their mistakes behind closed doors.

 This punishment is insignificant to Shen Zhi.

 Her errands were leisurely.

 It's good to go to the government office half the time a year.

 Clerical work is basically left to other clerks.

She is also one of the few officials who can receive official bonuses. The few months of salary as a penalty can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket. She should stay at home and think about her faults. The confinement is over, and folk gossip has changed. This incident will not affect the relationship between Shen Zhi and Bai Su. Whatever spices and powders she researches, whatever precious items she obtains, she always gives them to Bai Su first. The two families are neighbors.

The flower decorations in General Bai Su's mansion are always the most gorgeous. Even if she is away, Shen Zhi will help her change a new batch every seven days, so that there are seasonal flowers all year round.

 Shen Tang has actually acquiesced.

 She doesn't mind as long as it doesn't affect her work.

but-

 Smelling it, I found that the source of the smell was Gu Chi.

 She looked at Gu Chi, who looked at her nervously.

 “Why does the smell come from you?”

"Have it?"

“Yes, but the smell is light, not as strong as Shaoxuan's.”

Her sense of smell is still very sensitive and she will not be mistaken.

Gu Chi raised his sleeve and sniffed it carefully, with a calm expression. He immediately thought of something and explained with a smile: "I remembered it. I found that the incense made by Yaohe helped me fall asleep, so I asked her for some shamelessly. It was probably that Did you get it at the wrong time?"

The excuse was a bit lame, but Shen Tang didn't think much about it.

First of all, this matter has nothing to do with business, and secondly, Gu Chi doesn't have to deceive herself for a piece of incense. She cares more about the details.

 “Sleep aid? How effective is it?”

Even when Gu Chi was sleeping, he would be affected by the dreams of living people nearby. He could not sleep peacefully all year round, and his eyes were darkened and his lips were blue. Imported sleeping foods and drugs can be weighed against each other, but the effect after a few years can only be said to be moderate, but not much.

 This has also become a knot that Shen Tang can't let go of.

Gu Chi said with a smile: "It's okay."

"That's it? Very good, very good. After this battle, you can ask Yaohe to improve the fragrant recipe. It is medicine with three parts poison. Although literary scholars are not afraid of ordinary poisons, taking medicine for many years will harm your body. So use it instead. Incense might be better…”

 She was concerned about Gu Chi's health both inside and outside her words.

Gu Chi's smile became increasingly forced and stiff.

Just when his conscience was troubled and he was almost confessing, Qishan appeared. His appearance immediately diverted the Lord's attention. Shen Tang hurriedly pulled Qishan aside: "Yuanliang, how are things handled? What did Shanxiao say? Did he cause trouble for you?"

 Shen Tang is still afraid of suffering a loss for praying for good things.

Although he sent a message saying "everything is safe", he did not mention any specific details. Shen Tang suspected that he reported good news rather than bad news, and had to listen to the prayers in person to feel at ease. Qishan didn't say anything in the letter because he didn't want to occupy her rest time with trivial matters. Now that he was free in person, he briefly talked about the details of that day.

 “Cui Nujun has a broad mind and a deep understanding of righteousness!”

Shen Tang sighed again.

If it were me, I would never give up.

After the matter was settled, Shen Tang's hanging heart was completely relieved, and he patted Qishan on the shoulder: "Even if this matter is over, don't embarrass Shanxiao when you look back... It's just, alas, how can you walk by the river without getting your shoes wet?" ?Wish good luck always be with you!”

Not every enemy has a good girl like Cui Hui who is considerate and understands justice, and praying for good is not always able to avert danger. No matter what, this level has been passed.

 Pray for good deeds: “…”

 He and Gu Chi sat down in their respective places.

As soon as he sat down, Qishan saw such obvious marks on Gu Chi's neck. He looked at Gu Chi and then at the unresponsive Lord, and he couldn't help but frown. Immediately [transmit a message into the secret] and open a private chat: [Gu Wangchao, you prodigal son, behave better! 】

I don't know where the wind came back from.

 Let it be romantic, you don't even know how to cover it up.

Gu Chi responded in a lazy voice: [What do you know? 】

Qishan said: [Morality is corrupted! 】

 The most important thing is that it will lead to the bad Lord!

Gu Chi lowered his eyes and turned a deaf ear to his prayers. In fact, I started to roll my eyes internally.

  Neither of them understood his intentions. He was obviously showing off happily, but the Lord didn't understand. Qi Shan said that he corrupted the morals and was so boring. Gu Chi pulled the collar up, but his efforts to deliberately pull the collar down were in vain...

 The others haven't come yet.

 Shen Tang picked up the papers on the desk and took a look at them to pass the time.

 Kang Shi was the third one to come in.

 As for Kang Shi, Shen Tang was actually not willing to take him with him, but considering that leaving Kang Shi in the Northern Desert, which was not yet completely stable, might be more problematic, it would be interesting if his nest accidentally caught fire. Therefore, after careful consideration, she decided to take Kang Jishou as her friend.

 Kang Shi did not follow her into Fugu City yesterday.

 There are two corpses in the camp that need to be disposed of.

As soon as he arrived, Shen Tang hurriedly asked: "Ji Shou, how did the investigation of the two informants around Mei Jinghe go? What secrets do they have that make it worth her efforts to destroy their bodies and eliminate their traces?"

　　　He did not hesitate to resort to tricks on Lu Jue.

Although Lu Jue's skills would not cause him to be blown up, the psychological shadow might be left behind, and she was ruthless enough.

 Kang Shi stayed up all night because of this matter yesterday.

He said: "We did find some."

 Shen Tang put down the document in his hand and motioned for him to continue.

Kang Shou took out a small scroll full of records from his sleeves and presented it with both hands. Shen Tang took it and unfolded it, reading it ten lines at a time. The brows are sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed. Kang Shi on one side also said: "Time is tight, and some information has not yet been written down. Does the Lord still remember that Zheng Qiao once had a powerful general beside him, whose surname was Qi, whose given name was Cang, and whose courtesy name was Yanqing?"

Shen Tang said: "Qi Yanqing? Remember."

 She was quite impressed by this brave warrior.

Zheng Qiao's head was sutured by him and his body was buried by him.

 Since then, I haven't heard anything about Qi Yanqing's whereabouts, and Shen Tang didn't pay attention. Only then did I notice that Qi Yanqing's "Qi" is the national surname of Qi State: "Is Qi Yanqing a member of the royal family of King Qi?"

Kang Shi said: "That's not true. Qi in Qi State is the title of the founding monarch of Qi State. Among the fiefdoms, most people have the surname Qi."

 “He is working for Qi State now?” Shen Tang has limited energy. In recent years, most of his attention has been on the Northern Desert, Gao State and the governance of his own people's livelihood. He has precautions and understanding of the southwest countries but does not have a deep understanding of them. As far as she knew, Qi State had a relatively strong presence in the Southwest Continent in recent years, and Qi Cang was not among the famous generals.

If he serves the country of Qi, he will have to fight again in the future.

Kangshi: "Yes, he pushed the current leader of Qi State to him. He may have wanted to avenge his old master."

Hearing this, Shen Tang smiled and said, "It seems that Zheng Qiao is not a complete failure as a person. There are still people who think highly of him."

“Qi Yanqing should have taken away a piece of the national seal.”

According to the information extracted from the two corpses, the leader of Qi State relied on the national seal to take the final step. Without the blessing of this national seal, she would have to serve as regent for at least two years before she could eliminate the opposition in the court and take control of the overall situation. With the national seal, one can be "justified" and there will be less resistance to ascending the throne.

This national seal helped the king a lot.

Shen Tang's smile stiffened a bit. The bird and fish stone carvings that Zheng Qiao had entrusted to Qi Cang came to mind. The corners of his mouth turned downward: "Tsk, Zheng Qiao really did have a backup plan..."

　　It's true that people don't stop even after they die.

 She asked again: “Besides, what else is there?”

 Kangshi, as the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, was also an excellent literary scholar. If he didn't take action, he would do it. If he did, he would immediately take off the pants of the two corpses. He also got a lot of confidential information from the corpse, such as Qi Guo being restricted by the Eternal Life Cult, and the attitude of both parties was ambiguous, seeming to be cooperative but also wary. The current stage is mostly cooperation, and the Eternal Life Sect is huge in the southwest.

 “Is it the Eternal Life Religion again?”

"again?"

"Yesterday I met a pair of masters and apprentices. They said that they came from the Lu Kingdom in the southwest. Because the Yongsheng Cult excluded dissidents and persecuted other religions, they escaped because they could not survive in the local area. One of the disciples also told me to be careful about the Yongsheng around Wu Zhaode. Teaching and worshiping... It seems that the Eternal Life Sect is not satisfied with the southwest, and wants to go to the northwest to preach? Tsk, tsk, you have a big appetite."

Shen Tang does not interfere with other people's beliefs, but she does not allow others to use their beliefs to interfere in politics. Although he didn't know what the teachings of the Eternal Life Sect were, just looking at the name and its arrogance, Shen Tang knew that this thing was not a good thing, not to mention that the Eternal Life Sect was still on the side of Gao Guo and needed to be dealt with! Kang Shi also agreed: "From the intelligence, Wu Zhaode agreed to let the Eternal Life Sect preach in Gaoguo in order to obtain the help of the Eternal Life Sect. If we can defeat and annex us, we can also adopt the Eternal Life Sect as the state religion in the future."

  Shen Tang: “…”

 She was completely speechless.

Did Wu Zhaode get kicked in the head by a donkey as he got older?

Does he know the consequences of allowing a pheasant cult to preach within the country? And also regard the other party as the state religion? Aren't you afraid that someone will stand firm and turn around to lift the area under his butt?

 Kangshi: "Wu Zhaode also had the intention of taking advantage of him."

 It is just a verbal promise and it is not fulfilled immediately.

 Just fall out after the matter is done.

Even if it is an imperial edict stamped with a monogram or a national seal, as long as he does not acknowledge it, it is just a piece of silk to wipe his ass, let alone fulfill it. Not only that, Wu Xian probably still has the ambition to find out the details of the Eternal Life Sect through cooperation, and then use the Eternal Life Sect as a springboard to annex the Southwest Continent. Haha, the abacus is very loud.

Shen Tang took a long time to spit out one word: "6!"

Wu Zhaode used the trick of coaxing women on the Yongsheng Cult. He first made various promises to convince the Yongsheng Cult, and worked hard to accompany him in his entrepreneurial endeavors, knocking his bones and absorbing his marrow, and then kicked him after his career was successful. I don't know if I believe in the Eternal Life Sect.

Kangshi commented on this: "Everyone has his own agenda."

Both sides are smiling openly, but secretly they have a knife hidden in their backs, ready to stab their allies in the heart at any time. Shen Tang was surprised: "Why do two corpses have so much information?"

 Did the corpse know too much before it was alive?

Kang Shidao: "Mei Meng cooperates with the Eternal Life Sect."

  Shen Tang: “…”

Kang Shi added: "She is also the vice-president of the Southwest Branch of the Society of Gods. Although she is not as comfortable as Yuan Liang back then, her right to speak in the Southwest Branch of the Society of Gods is not weak. It is the leader of Qi State who fully supports her. Those who go up are very difficult to deal with.”

  Shen Tang: “…”

 Kangshi continued: "The leader of the Eternal Life Religion..."

 He seemed hesitant to continue.

Shen Tang looked around and saw that there were only four people in the tent. Counting Gong Xiqiu, who was guarding her safety on the roof of the tent, there were only five people in total. The others were still on the way: "There are no outsiders here, what can you say?" Just say it, no need to be shy."

Kang Shi glanced in the direction of the roof of the tent.

"Mei Meng, the Eternal Life Sect, and the Southwest Branch of the Gods Society are all in the same bed. She secretly used the Gods Society to investigate the details of the Eternal Life Sect. It was found out that the leader was suspected to be one of the five famous generals of the Wu Kingdom, and was related to Yun, who was active on the battlefield in the Northern Desert. Da is of an era..."

Just realized that the title of my last chapter was wrong ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

PS: Today I went to see the local folklore activity of Puqi to raise the pavilion. There were so many people, so many that I was almost squeezed into a human biscuit.
