The Imperial Guard’s Revenge

It all changed because of him.

Wang Yanqing looked at his dark blue official uniform, on which Feiyu was staring at her with a pair of copper eyes, staring back at her with open teeth and claws. Wang Yanqing said, "Second brother, why are you wearing dark clothes in such a hot weather?"

Lu Heng carefully wiped the dust off her fingertips and said, "If you wear red or purple, it would be too stupid to walk in the forest."

Lu Heng wore red clothes when he went to court and when he was driving, but he mostly wore casual clothes when he went out for tasks, and a few occasions where his identity could be revealed, he wore cyan and black official uniforms. Jin Yiwei's clothes were too conspicuous, and he didn't want to reveal it unless necessary.

At least he didn't want to gān about such a stupid thing as wearing a red shirt in the forest.

Lu Heng's horse was well-kept. Even if there was no leash, it would not run around. It was quietly grazing under the tree. When Lu Heng whistled, it would come over automatically. Lu Heng put away the veil, held Wang Yanqing's hand, and walked towards the village with the other hand on the reins. He glanced back as he passed a tree.

After the tree gān, a little boy quickly retracted his head, revealing only a pair of dark eyes, looking at them curiously and fearfully.

Lu Heng recognized that this was the child who was talking to Wang Yanqing just now, and he asked, "Who is this?"

"The grandson of Li Zheng's family is called Li Zhengze."

"Ping said is regular, good name."

The two stopped when they clicked, this is not the place to talk, and they didn't talk deeply. After they returned to the village, it was almost time, everyone drank water and ate, and after resting for a day or two, they set off towards the county seat.

It is unrealistic for so many people to live in Hegu Village. Lu Heng has already seen the surrounding terrain, so there is no need to stay in the village anymore. It is better to go to the more convenient county office. Lu Heng never wronged himself in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation.

In the evening of the same day, Lu Heng, Cheng Zhifu and others arrived in Qi County and stayed in the county government office. The county magistrate Tao Yiming asked the prefect and the commander to go to the best restaurant in the city for dinner, and at the same time, he hurried back to the county government to clean up the room.

It is estimated that the Qixian county government has never been so lively. Two adults came to the government at one time, and each brought a lot of attendants. It was a lot of trouble to clean up the room, arrange the staff, and cut the grass and feed the horses. During this period, the magistrate Tao Yiming proposed to give Lu Heng the residence of the county magistrate's main hospital, but Lu Heng refused.

He is obsessed with cleanliness in this regard. He doesn't like to touch other people's things, nor does he like others to touch his things. He would rather live in a small but clean empty house.

Knowing that the big man was coming, the restaurant had already cleared the venue. Lu Heng, Cheng Zhifu, Tao Yiming and other officials of the prefecture ate on the second floor, while Wang Yanqing ate alone in the box. To be honest, Wang Yanqing was very satisfied with the result, she didn't have to think about other people's faces, and she didn't have to worry about her face, she ate a meal at ease.

The entertainment in the officialdom is usually like this, three points for eating and seven points for drinking. Wang Yanqing thought they would make trouble for a long time, but she didn't expect it to end after waiting for a while.

The shop assistant came in and respectfully invited Wang Yanqing to come downstairs. Wang Yanqing went out to board the sedan chair, and soon the porter got up and walked to the county office.

Wang Yanqing was a female family member and did not dismount from the horse at the same place as the men. He did not dismount until after entering the courtyard wall. Immediately after she came out, a servant girl stepped forward and led Wang Yanqing to the place where she was staying tonight.

The small county office was overcrowded at the moment, but the place where Wang Yanqing went was still quiet and quiet. This yard has just been cleaned up, the place is not big, but it is very quiet. There are three rooms in the front, surrounded by walls on both sides. The other courtyards are connected by ebony doors. Several bamboos are planted in the courtyard, like a small square in a chessboard.

In the courtyard, there is a cross corridor made of stones, and there are still traces of water sprinklers on it. The maid led Wang Yanqing to the door of the house, pushed open the door, and said, "Girl, this place was originally a place to store documents. The county magistrate knew that Lord Lu likes to be quiet, and immediately ordered us to clean it up. The hot tea and hot water have already been boiled. Look, girl, is there anything else missing?"

Wang Yanqing lifted her skirt and stepped into the threshold. Hearing this, she shook her head: "No, it's work."

The maid wiped her hands on the skirt and said, "That's good. There is something else in the kitchen, the slave's house will go first. If you have any orders, just call someone, and the slave will retire."

Wang Yanqing subconsciously said thank you. After the maid left, Wang Yanqing walked slowly in the house. The three rooms are not big, and they are completely incomparable with the Lu residence. The west room is filled with many boxes, cages and scrolls, with almost no place to stay. The main room is well-furnished, with calligraphy, paintings and chairs. The east room is vacated for Lu Heng to make. In the bedroom, bedding is placed.

All of this seems to Wang Yanqing to be unremarkable, but for the county government, it is not easy to clean up like this. Where she stayed temporarily, Wang Yanqing didn't have high hopes. She turned around and suddenly realized why there was only one chuáng?

Lu Heng came in and found Wang Yanqing rummaging around in the house, asking, "What are you looking for?"

Wang Yanqing's heart was indescribable, she frowned and said, "Why did they only prepare one room?"

More than one room, there is only one room.

Lu Heng responded calmly, lifted his clothes, sat down, and said, "Today you have to rush to say that it is my maid, and the maid and I live in the same room, isn't it normal?"

Wang Yanqing was stunned, unable to answer for a while. Lu Heng poured tea leisurely, glanced at her calmly, and said with a smile, "Why, do you want them to rearrange it?"

Asking the magistrate to clean up a new room and come out is just a matter of Lu Heng's words, but in this way, they will change their rhetoric and be capricious, which may arouse suspicion from outsiders. Wang Yanqing gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it, it's not unheard of before anyway, don't bother."
