Lin'an Never Night

Chapter 175 No Way
Fei Yuye said: "Chunhua Qiuyue, Deputy Chengzhi Yang arrives today and is temporarily responsible for the audit, investigation, arrest and counter-espionage of military intelligence and military affairs in various places outside Lin'an.

From now on, you two will assist Deputy Secretary Yang in his duties as an aide, and you should do your best and not be negligent."

Leng Yuchan and Xue Bingxin agreed in unison.

Fei Yuye said, "Okay, take Deputy Secretary Yang to see his signing room."

Two long-legged girls led Yang Yuan out.

When we arrived at the small garden in the courtyard and turned right, we saw that the house on the right was indeed the new signing room for Yang Yuan.

It turned out that this room was Leng Yuchan's office. Now that Yang Yuan came, he divided Xue Bingxin's signing room into two rooms, and vacated this larger room for Yang Yuan.

Yang Yuan walked into the signing room and took a look. The decoration was elegant, the details were particularly exquisite, and there was even a pot of orchid in front of the window.

He didn't know that this was Leng Yuchan's signing room. He just felt that the furnishings and arrangements were very much to his taste and nodded with satisfaction.

Yang Yuan looked back at the two girls who were dressed in men's clothes but had their own charming features. They were still standing there, with two pairs of big black and white eyes looking at him.

Yang Yuan smiled and waved his hand, saying, "We will be working together in the yamen from now on. The two yamen officers don't have to be so restrained. Please sit down."

Leng and Xue looked at each other and sat down on the two armchairs on the left.

Yang Yuan did not go behind the case, as that would have seemed too distant.

He sat down on the armchair on the right, lifted up his robe, and reached underneath it.

Leng Yuchan was startled and stood up suddenly, reaching for the sword at her waist.

Yang Yuan took out a can of the finest Shifeng roasted tea he had obtained from Prince Enping and said with a smile:
"I have some excellent roasted tea that has become popular recently. Please have a taste of it, both of you."

Leng Yuchan felt a little embarrassed, and her soft hand that was holding the hilt of the sword loosened quietly. After hesitating for a moment, she naturally put her hand on the armrest of the chair, sat down again, and crossed her legs.

Hmm... now the action just now seems natural.

Yang Yuan asked, "Is there any hot water in our signing room?"

As soon as Leng Yuchan's butt touched the chair, Yang Yuan asked the question, and Leng Yuchan felt a little embarrassed again.

Shangguan just asked if there was any hot water, and you rushed to sit down and crossed your legs. Are you afraid that you will be asked to fetch water?
Xue Bingxin suppressed her laughter and said to Yang Yuan, "So Deputy Imperial Secretary Yang also likes to drink tea?

We have all switched to drinking pure tea recently. We have some new and high-quality roasted tea from Chengzhi, which is really valuable.

She was so stingy that she didn't even want to let us have a taste. It's better for you to be generous, Deputy Secretary Yang."

When Yang Yuan heard this, he lifted up the hem of his robe and took out two small jars from under his robe with two "swish".

"Ahaha, I do have two jars of this fried tea, but there are only three jars in total.

The two bailiffs will each bring a can. You can drink it first. Tell me when you’re done. I’ll go and buy some more by the way.

But please don’t let others see it, I really don’t have any here.”

This time, even Leng Yuchan, who was pretending to be reserved and crossed her legs, relaxed her brows:
"Thank you, Deputy Imperial Secretary. This premium roasted tea has only just been released and is really hard to buy."

Xue Bingxin said excitedly, "Of course there is hot water. Deputy Manager Yang, please wait a moment. I will go get it."

There are three women, two eunuchs, and two old men with their necks buried in the dirt in this "Yu Zi Fang".

Perhaps it was because the yin energy in the "Fish-shaped Room" was too heavy, so the hot water was always burning.

Xue Bingxin came in with a kettle of hot water after a while. Leng Yuchan had already washed the tea set and placed it on the small table.

After three cups of Longjing tea, one flag and one shot, the fragrance of the tender buds is pleasing to the eye.

Leng Yuchan and Xue Bingxin picked up the cups and smelled the fragrance, and suddenly felt relaxed and happy.

Yang Yuan held the teacup in his hand, swirled it gently under his nose, and asked with a smile, "Just now I heard Fei Chengzhi call the two yamen guards Chunhua Qiuyue?"

Leng Yuchan felt a little ashamed and angry when she heard this: "This is the nickname the headmaster gave us two."

Yang Yuan suddenly realized: "No wonder. It's just that these spring flowers and autumn moons..."

Xue Bingxin asked sensitively, "It's rather vulgar, isn't it?"

She also thought it was tacky, but who made her and Leng Yuchan call each other "fat imperial edict" and "fat head chamberlain" on purpose to anger Fat Yuye?

As a result, they were "retaliated" against and given this code name.

Although the three of them have become close friends now, Fei Yuye has always refused to change their nicknames.

How does that saying go? When there are no bad people, your best friend is the bad person.

What a bad taste.

Yang Yuan waved his hands and smiled: "No, no, it's not tacky. Ahem..."

He cleared his throat and sang softly: "Spring flowers and autumn moon are the most beautiful, and the feelings of young people are the most sincere.

Life is like a cloud of smoke, it passes by so quickly, we must cherish it..., hahahaha, look, doesn't this sound pretty good..."

Xue Bingxin was surprised and asked, "What song is Deputy Headmaster Yang singing? The tune is so novel, I have never heard of it before. Could it be that Master Yuyao Nuyu has released a new song?"

Yang Yuan said: "Uh, this song...haha, I just hummed it..."

Xue Bingxin complained, "Deputy Manager Yang doesn't need to cover up for us.

The manager gave us this nickname just to tease us, and we don't like to hear it.

She might as well call us Qingfeng Mingyue and Huijing Lechen. These nicknames are really unpopular. "Leng Yuchan's eyes flashed, and the dimples on her cheeks suddenly deepened:
"Now that we are both under the command of Deputy Secretary Yang, how about asking Deputy Secretary Yang to give us another nickname?"

After hearing this, even Xue Bingxin opened her eyes wide and looked at Yang Yuan eagerly.

She also hated Chunhua and Qiuyue. They sounded like two country girls and were not worthy of the two noble yamen officials.

"Ah... then, why don't you call it 'Beautiful Flowers' or 'Full Moon'?" Yang Yuan blurted out the title of the song he was humming.

If you want to conquer the fortress of the Yuzifang trio, you can't expect to succeed in one battle. You have to dig holes little by little, just like a thousand-mile dam that can be breached by an ant hole.

Giving them another nickname is a start.

When Leng Yuchan heard that it was Hua Yayue's, she instinctively wanted to object.

But when she thought about it carefully, she realized that she had only changed one word, but why did the meaning sound so different?

The flowers are in full bloom and the moon is full, which is indeed much more elegant. It is very different from the spring flowers and autumn moon.

Xue Bingxin nodded repeatedly and said happily: "This nickname sounds nice, so I will be called Yueyuan from now on. Huahao, ok?"

Yang Yuan smiled and said, "You guys are really good at giving me problems. I just arrived and I changed the nicknames that Fei Chengzhi gave you. Don't let Fei Chengzhi think that I am disrespecting my superiors."

Leng Yuchan repeated the word several times and felt that "the flowers are beautiful" was indeed elegant and much more graceful than "the spring flowers". She even felt more favorable when she looked at Yang Yuan.

After hearing what Yang Yuan said, he said, "The Imperial Secretary may not be unhappy because the Deputy Imperial Secretary changed our nicknames.

However, Deputy Imperial Secretary Yang keeps mispronouncing our Imperial Secretary's last name, and I'm afraid that will make her unhappy."

Yang Yuan was stunned: "Did you pronounce her last name wrong? Isn't her name Fei Yuye?"

Leng Yuchan said with a half-smile: "Our imperial concubine is from Guangzhou Prefecture. Her last name is Fei, and she has a bit of a local accent. The word Fei has a falling tone, so it's easy for people to hear it as Fei."

Yang Yuan said, "I see. I was wondering, people with the last name Fei are rare. Haha, but people with the last name Fei are not common either."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but feel moved, and suddenly remembered Fei Tianlu whom he had met in Chuigong Hall.

The surname Fei is very rare. If Fei Tianlu was just the owner of the "Moshanghua" embroidery workshop, he would not have associated him with Fei Yuye.

However, since the Fat Mr. Wai is no longer just a Fat Mr. Wai, then is there any relationship between this Fat Miss Yuye and the Fat Mr. Wai?

Xue Bingxin curled her lips and said, "Okay, Yuchan, don't try to find a way out for our Fat Chengzhi! What about the hometown accent?
If she pronounced "fei" as "fei" because of her accent, then why didn't she pronounce "yu" as "rou"? That's also the Guangzhou dialect.

Oh! She only has the word "fei" with a local accent, right? Eh? Feiyuye, Feirouye, ha, hahaha..."

Xue Bingxin suddenly felt like "Blind student, you've discovered the highlight" and couldn't help but giggle.

Leng Yuchan rolled her eyes at her, and a smile could not help but appear on her pretty face.

Girlfriends are there to be teased! It's really fun to hear that.

Yang Yuan found it funny after listening to their conversation.

However, the superiors still have to maintain some dignity and not join them in making fun of others.

Yang Yuan asked, "Does everyone in our Yuzifang have a nickname? My nickname is 'Song Ci', I wonder what our Fei Chengzhi's nickname is?"

Huahao and Yueyuan looked at each other, and they seemed to have discovered another "highlight".

Yang Yuan asked curiously, "What's wrong? Could it be that the nickname of the Fat Chamberlain is a secret and cannot be disclosed?"

Leng Yuchan had a strange look on her face and said slowly, "We accept your order and will be given the nickname... 'Tang Shi'."

……

The newly-minted Hua Hao and Yue Yuan came out of Yang Yuan's detention room and walked to the door of Xue Bingxin's detention room.

Xue Bingxin grabbed Leng Yuchan's collar and whispered, "Hey, what do you think of this Deputy Secretary Yang?"

Leng Yuchan glanced at her and said, "Why? A can of fried tea made you soft-hearted."

"How is that possible! If he doesn't come, I will be the deputy emperor! He took my position, I wish I could kick him out."

Leng Yuchan snorted and said, "Why must you be the deputy emperor? Can't it be me?"

"I am three months older than you, so I have more experience."

"You're so great, aren't you?"

"I mean, I entered the palace three months earlier than you did. I have more seniority, not me!"

"I've been in the palace for three months, that's nothing but experience!"

"Leng Yuchan, do you want to fight?"

"You can fight, but first drive the outsiders away."

"That makes sense! Sisters quarrel in bed, but we have to defend ourselves from outside. Let's get rid of that guy first."

Xue Bingxin patted the tea can hidden in her arms and said excitedly: "No more talking, I'll go taste the tea first."

Leng Yuchan said nonchalantly: "I'll go with you."

Xue Bingxin stepped into the door in one swift step and pushed Leng Yuchan out with her backhand: "You don't have any yourself? And you still want to take advantage of me!"

With a "clang", the door disappeared.
